Chapter 145 - It’s Worth It

s.h.i.+ Jin entered Lanting Residence and saw Fu Xiuyuan coming downstairs as she walked across the soft carpet.

The man was particularly tall. He probably just came back from the office since he was still dressed in his suit. He looked as stunning as a G.o.d in it.

s.h.i.+ Jin automatically looked at him warmly as she opened her arms at him.

Fu Xiuyuan was caught by surprise before he got accustomed to her warmth.

Everything that happened recently felt like a dream to him. It felt as surreal as walking on clouds.

He finally felt a sense of security after he stepped forward and embraced the young woman.

s.h.i.+ Jin felt she was starting to get used to his embrace as well and was starting to like it. She leaned against his chest and threw all her problems to the back of her head.

She took off her mask and leaned against him from the front.

Fu Xiuyuan lowered his eyes and saw the scar on s.h.i.+ Jin's lips. In the past, he never felt it was ugly. No matter how s.h.i.+ Jin looked, she was beautiful in every way to him. However, people kept talking about s.h.i.+ Jin's scar after Little Gold Bar's studio-quality pictures appeared online.

Fu Xiuyuan finally caught on to how much pressure his girl must be under thanks to this.

He placed his long slender fingers on her lips and felt bad for her.

"Don't worry. Everything will work out soon enough," comforted s.h.i.+ Jin. "You know I have scar removal cream."

Fu Xiuyuan replied deeply, "Uh huh. If you use it with makeup, it won't be as effective."

s.h.i.+ Jin always had to put on makeup when she treated Fu Heyan, so the scar had yet to disappear. Otherwise, Little Gold Bar could never compare to s.h.i.+ Jin in terms of beauty.

Fu Xiuyuan was a taciturn man and usually looked cold. In her past life, s.h.i.+ Jin could not be bothered trying to figure out what he was thinking, so they ended up having a lot of misunderstandings.

After s.h.i.+ Jin was reborn, she was able to immediately understand what he was trying to say. It was almost like she could read his mind.

She immediately detected how sorry he felt about her situation, so she smiled and said, "Well, it is just a slight delay and not forever. In any case, your sister is more important."

The moment she finished her sentence, Fu Xiuyuan embraced her tightly as though he wanted to become one with her.

s.h.i.+ Jin smiled even more brightly. "She is your family, so I think it's worth it."

She could sense that Fu Xiuyuan's fragile sense of security was gradually flouris.h.i.+ng.

The next day, a lot of fans waited outside the filming location before the compet.i.tion started.

Most of them were holding banners and lights for Little Gold Bar.

It was clear that good looks gave him an edge at winning fans over.

s.h.i.+ Jin walked over quietly.

Hua Xin's talent agent smiled smugly as he glanced at s.h.i.+ Jin. His eyes were filled with so much contempt and c.o.c.kiness that Gu Qinghua almost went over to pummel him.

s.h.i.+ Jin pulled her slender arm. "Qinghua!"

Gu Qinghua refused to let this slide. "They are too much! This is no different from selling s.e.x!"

She was absolutely disappointed with the program.

They insisted on grooming talent and disregard looks when they promoted the show. However, Hua Xin ended up using his face.

"Never mind.. They are not fit for us to get angry over," said s.h.i.+ Jin. "How is your song coming along?"
