Showbiz Scandal: The Official Announcement of My Ex and Myself
Chapter 558: Born Especially for You
Mei and He Ci immediately started clapping along.
Especially He Ci, who was completely contrasting his calm demeanor outside the car, was so excited it was as if he had won the award himself, and even shouted: "Great! My honey! You’re amazing!"
Mei: "He was watching the live broadcast outside and almost cried."
He Ci: "Isn’t this worth tears of joy? We’re now the TV Festival’s Best Actress, the top actress in her class! In the entertainment circle, when you look around, she’s the only actress with both status and popularity!"
He could almost see a pile of money flying toward him.
Xie Qingci nodded seriously: "Indeed."
Then, he earnestly told her again: "Congratulations, Best Actress."
"Congratulations to you too."
After saying that, Yu Xia pressed her other hand down, flicked her hair, indicating she had more to say in her acceptance speech.
Those in the front turned around to look at her, Xie Qingci also leaned forward, listening with his head sideways.
She raised the trophy higher, cleared her throat, and said, "First of all, I couldn’t have won this award without He’s help and support! He has helped arrange schedules, took jobs, accompanied me to filming, handled a lot of information, and often cared for my health, family, and romance, just like a perfect agent! Thank you, He!"
Mei immediately clapped for He Ci, cheering with "Wow" sounds.
He Ci showed a shared pride, adjusting his bow tie.
"This is what I, as an agent, should do. I just hope we have even more pleasant cooperation in the future and earn more money!"
"Great! Applause!" Everyone clapped together, trying to make the applause thunderous.
After speaking about He Ci, Yu Xia looked at Mei and said, "I also want to thank Mei and driver Mr. Li, you are all indispensable in my work. Especially Mei, always following me everywhere I go, attending to things immediately, taking lots of beautiful photos these years, and being a constant source of joy, as the second biggest contributor, I couldn’t have won this award without your support!"
Mei smiled with pursed lips, showing her not-so-obvious dimples.
Finally, she looked at Xie Qingci and blinked, saying, "Of course, Xie Qingci also has credit, but I won’t go into details, that’s for private conversations at home. But behind my medals, there’s your presence too, come here, let me give you a loving hug."
Xie Qingci shook his head with a smile and opened his arms to hug her.
"Did you hear the thanks?" she whispered in his ear as their bodies pressed together.
"I heard it. I’m especially touched, and I’ve decided to serve you well when we get back," he whispered back, biting his ear gently.
Yu Xia held back a laugh and let go of him.
After finishing her acceptance speech, she asked Mei, "Have you picked the place? Let Xie Qingci tell Mr. Yang and the others early on, so we can head straight there."
Mei excitedly showed the reserved restaurant to her.
"It’s chosen, it’s chosen, just near your apartment complex, a private kitchen restaurant. The rest of the studio people are already there."
"Alright," she leaned forward to take a look, then asked, "Where are the clothes I need to change into?"
The haute couture only has the characteristics of beauty and expense, very inconvenient. What’s more, we have to go for a dinner party later, I must change into casual clothes.
Before Mei could answer, Xie Qingci placed those two outfits on his lap.
"Here. Do you want to change now?"
She nodded, and He raised the divider in the car, and the automatic blackout curtains on the car window slowly closed, turning the back seat into a fully concealed temporary dressing room.
"I’ll say this first, the distance isn’t far, just change clothes, don’t make any other noise," He said from the front.
The divider will block out a little sound, she glanced at Xie Qingci and loudly replied to He: "Got it!"
Usually, Mei would help with changing clothes, as haute couture is not as easy to take off as a regular dress; care must be taken to ensure it doesn’t get caught or stained, quite a hassle.
Yu Xia kicked off her high heels, turned her back to Xie Qingci.
"Help me."
Xie Qingci moved closer, fingers touching her back.
On her jade-like back, her scapular bones slightly protruded, light blue fabric only wrapped around her waist, leaving most of her back exposed, with a short piece of veil draping over her waist, adding allure with its faint coverage.
The vine embroidery on the dress looked as if it was directly tattooed on her waist, with the front design of flower blooming, looking like a single flower being guarded by green vines.
With this view, the front beauty became even more apparent.
His fingers moved up her back, his thumb and forefinger gently pressing at the back of her neck, pushing her head down slightly.
Yu Xia turned to look at him: "What, planning to strangle me?"
He leaned closer, whispering something by her ear, earning a roll of the eyes.
"Does your brain have any room left for normal thoughts?"
Xie Qingci: "So is it okay?"
"Today I’m in a good mood, so I’ll allow it."
Saying that, she shrugged her shoulders, urging him, "Hurry up and help."
"Alright—"
The light blue haute couture was peeled away, flowers and vines opened up halfway, revealing the slender white jade within.
He had seen this beautiful sight many times before, the exquisite figure of the star actress Yu Xia.
The black, oversized t-shirt carefully replaced the dress, going over her head. With a purposely chosen large neckline, it didn’t mess up her makeup or hair when put on.
Yu Xia took the remaining half skirt, kneeling on the seat to put it on.
Once settled, she was about to speak to ask Xie Qingci to fold the dress and put it in a bag, but as she turned, she was pushed back by Xie Qingci.
A kiss fell on the long-desired red lips.
She instinctively leaned back, her waist forming an incredible arch on Xie Qingci’s tightly held arm.
The scene was like a modest girl being forced by a lecher.
Considering that it was already cool today, and the air conditioner in the car wasn’t on, the enclosed space in the backseat felt like it was lit on fire, whether mild or intense, it created a steaming sauna effect. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦
Yu Xia’s previous reaction of holding the trophy and sweating was perfectly replicated, with a circle of fine sweat appearing around her neck.
After a long while, Xie Qingci let go of her, staring at her with intense eyes.
"This lipstick doesn’t taste good."
"..." Yu Xia rubbed his lips with tissue paper, "It wasn’t invented to be eaten!"
He had her lipstick on the corner of his mouth, and his shirt collar was unknowingly unbuttoned a little, making him look like a debauched philanderer.
It had to be wiped clean, otherwise, it would be awkward for her to have dinner with He Ci and the others with lipstick on his mouth.
But Xie Qingci’s skin was really something, after wiping twice, the lipstick at the corner of his lips was mostly gone, but his lips turned red from the rubbing, colored bright red as if they’d been ravaged by chili.
Xie Qingci winced and dodged, "Be gentle."
Yu Xia held his face, preventing him from dodging, frowned, and examined it for a bit.
Well, it looked like he’d been passionately kissed.
She balled up the tissue and threw it aside, looking at him and sighing.
"You really have a face that looks like it’s meant to be ravaged."
Xie Qingci innocently blinked, "Maybe it was grown especially for you? Is it gone?"
"It’s not going to come off!"
