Chapter 025

Since Zhu Anhe’s face swelled up after he got slapped, his scene with Jing Yuanqi in the afternoon had to be skipped.

Jing Yuanqi was happy to sit back and relax. He took a page from Shi Qing’s book and moved a chair next to the film emperor.

The difference was that Shi Qing was watching other people act while he was always watching Shi Qing.

Jing Yuanqi has always been good at observing others. He had an uncanny ability to analyze the character of the other party. Naturally, he’s put his skills to use before on this film emperor-laoshi of his. But after the chili sauce incident, he suddenly found out that his analysis was majorly flawed.

This was the first time that Jing Yuanqi made a mistake like this.

It caused him to develop a keen interest in Shi Qing.

Jing Yuanqi has always been a bold and unrestrained person. He had to study the things that made him curious in great detail.

So the young man who changed out of his ancient clothing openly stared at Shi Qing the entire afternoon.

He was like a leopard that had never seen aquatic creatures before that found a mussel one day.

He wasn’t hungry, so he was in no rush to eat. He patiently swung his long tail around as he slowly retracted his sharp claws back into the pads of his feet. He carefully circled around the clam, trying to wait until the clam decided to open its hard shell to reveal the soft meat within.

The more times he went around, the more he felt like his previous impression was too superficial.

The body of the film emperor was always slightly tense under his gaze, and his whole body gave off the feeling that he was thousands of miles away. Every time Shi Qing glanced at someone, it was like he was condescendingly sparing some of his precious time to them.

But his delicate lips always remained slightly pursed. This was a sign that a person was nervous.

And although he stared at him for such a long time, Shi Qing didn’t pay him any attention. He just looked out onto the set, but his body that seemed to be languidly relaxed didn’t move an inch the entire time.

It was impossible for a normal person to be motionless for an entire afternoon. His reluctance to move must therefore be caused by external factors.

Jing Yuanqi was almost arrogant enough to attribute this phenomenon to himself.

His unabashed staring obviously made the film emperor uncomfortable.

But what kind of person could make a film emperor who has long since been in the limelight uncomfortable?

Thinking back to the chili sauce from before, an answer quietly rose in the young man’s mind.

Shi Qing treated him differently.

That was why he arranged for someone to add chili sauce to his meal.

It was also why he refused to move under his gaze.

Why would a practical stranger treat another person so differently?

The answer he arrived at succeeded in making Jing Yuanqi’s eyes dim enigmatically.

He has always been excellent in all the ways that mattered. He had countless admirers growing up, both men and women alike. To him, they were all the same.

After all, Jing Yuanqi didn’t think much of any of them.

He either disliked them for their looks or their overly pandering attitudes.
