Don't Want to See You In The Next Life (Volume 2)

Chapter 8

When Li Mo opened his eyes, he was stunned for a while before realizing that he was not abroad nor in the newly rented house on Qingyuan Road but lying in an unfamiliar bedroom with low-key and luxurious furnishings.

He sat up and tried to remember how he came in until he saw the note Xia Liang left on the bedside table. 

[You were drunk last night. I don't know where you live so I took you back to my place first. You will be the villa's master in the future. Are you satisfied with it? Everything in the refrigerator is fresh and there is a supermarket outside the community. Also, remember to bring your luggage over today. ]

After reading it, Li Mo shook his head and laughed. Under the appearance of Xia Liang as an overbearing president, there is a soft and delicate heart hidden which makes people unable to refuse.

Now that he had agreed to move in yesterday, Li Mo was no longer restrained. He walked out of the bedroom, familiarized himself with the general layout of the villa, then went into the kitchen and opened the refrigerator, thinking about what to get for breakfast.

This afternoon, Xia Liang was sitting in the office immersed in the documents reviewing documents. Suddenly, a soft sound came from his mobile phone. He turned on his phone and took a look. It was a WeChat message sent by Li Mo.

[President, I have already followed your instructions to bring in my luggage. . Would you like to come over for dinner tonight? I will make you a sumptuous dinner to thank you for taking me in. ]

Xia Liang smiled and was about to reply when the landline rang. The secretary asked for instructions on the phone.

"Mr. Xia, there is a young man named Ji Qin outside. He said he had an appointment with you today."

Xia Liang put down the phone and replied: "Let him come in."

Not long after, the secretary signaled the direction Xia Liang was in to Ji Qin, then closed the door and walked out.

Xia Liang closed the file, looked up at him, and smiled: "Sit down."

Ji Qin wore a casual outfit. He nodded and thanked him, then sat down opposite Xia Liang. 

"I heard from Song Yan, are you going to audition in City B?" 

Xia Liang asked straightforwardly.

"Yes." 

"Which company's play?"

Ji Qin did not expect that Xia Liang would inquire in detail and tried to remember for a moment.

"It seems to be called Wangchuan Film and Television Company? I don't remember. I came to audition because the director was my former senior. He said looking at our friendship in the past, he wants to give me a chance to audition. If it is suitable, I will stay and if it is not suitable, I will leave."

Xia Liang saw Ji Qin very relaxed, as if he didn't care about success or failure. He couldn't help but smile and asked tentatively.

"Since you are Song Yan's cousin, why don't you let your cousin invest in filming so that the male lead position is yours?"

"That's boring!" Ji Qin screamed, "Although I am not well-known now, the role of each drama is obtained by myself. This way, I have a sense of accomplishment. If I rely on relatives to invest in filming, no matter how good the shot is, I'd feel bad."

As Ji Qin said that, he paused and smiled: "What's more, my relatives with Brother Yan are too far apart. We have only seen each other a few times when I was a kid. This time, if it wasn't for my mother talking to Mrs. Song, I don't think the Song family remembers the existence of a distant relative like me."

Xia Liang raised her eyebrows: "Is it the Song family that your mother helped you contact?"

"Yes, my mother played mahjong with Mrs. Song a few days ago and accidentally chatted about me, saying that I was going to audition in City B in a few days. Mrs. Song might have helped out of good intentions. Actually, I personally think it's just an audition and there is no need to make it so troublesome. If I can stay with the crew, I'll just look at the crew arrangements, if not, I can find a place nearby to live."

"Where's your agent? Why didn't he follow?"

"Our agent took a few artists by himself so he couldn't be too busy. I won't bother him to make a special trip for such small things."

Xia Liang immediately changed his opinion on Ji Qin and smiled: "But since Song Yan has entrusted you to my place, I naturally want to do my best as a landlord." He checked his watch and said, "Is it not convenient to have a meal together tonight?"

"It's okay." Ji Qin replied very refreshingly.

Xia Liang asked him to go to the reception room for a while, then took out his mobile phone and gave Li Mo back a WeChat message.

[Do you mind if I bring two more people over to have a meal?] 

Zhou Shuo curled up on the bed with a sullen expression.

When Xia Liang went out in the morning, he told Xia Liang that he was not feeling well and Xia Liang granted him sick leave without saying a word. 

However, Zhou Shuo knew in his heart that he was not ill, he just couldn't do anything and follow Xia Liang as if nothing had happened.

He didn't know what kind of demon he is. He always felt that Xia Liang had a strange fragrance on his body that made him confused. Even when he just heard his voice, he couldn't help but gaochao.

(Gaochao: orgasm, climax)

He originally thought it was the smell of perfume but after Xia Liang took a bath last night, the smell was still there. It became more intense but Xia Liang himself didn't notice it.

Looking back carefully, when he saw Li Mo yesterday, the other party did not show any abnormality. 

The only person who seemed abnormal was himself. He can only comfort himself. 

Perhaps all of this is an illusion. When he wakes up tomorrow, the illusion will disappear.

But when Xia Liang opened the door of his room this morning, he was completely desperate. The intensity of the scent only increased compared to yesterday and now he can't get closer to Xia Liang within five steps.

In desperation, he could only go to the Internet to ask for help but most of the answers were mysterious "hormonal effects".

Zhou Shuo couldn't figure out what's happening. It wasn't just a day or two that he had a crush on Xia Liang. If it was just because of hormones, it would not just erupt now.

When he grabbed the web page of his mobile phone and gradually became disappointed, he suddenly received a WeChat message from Xia Liang.

[Are you in good health? Li Mo will host a family banquet in my villa, will you come?]

Zhou Shuo looked at the words "family banquet" and suddenly nameless jealousy rose in his heart, suffocating his breath. 

He replied with two words: [Not going.]
