Loving Asia's Multi-Talented Queen: The Path To Stardom 114 Continue Loving You

Five Days Later

Xu Jia Li sat on her leather stool as the shooting began. It was a scene inside the Hao Chi Café at Hijingshan District in Beijing. Luo Daming and Meng Lulu had their scene taken. She inhaled deeply as she watched how the scene unfolded.

The shooting went by so fast. They were already on the fifth day of shooting. Xu Jia Li couldn't believe that she had been Si Weimin's girlfriend for one week. She smiled at the thought. Just like the past few days, Si Weimin never failed to drive her to the shooting since they had to shoot on a different location.

Si Weimin would also try his best to wait for her after the shooting was done. Their relations.h.i.+p blossomed even more as they spent more times together.

Xu Jia Li didn't even know how she managed to keep everything from Shen Linqin since she was always with her. However, she just couldn't tell it to them yet. For her, it wasn't yet the right time. She believed that the more people who knew it, the more it would become complicated. She just wanted to spend more time with Si Weimin without worrying about anything.

She was cut in her thoughts when Shen Linqin approached her, "Li-jie, a.s.sistant w.a.n.g dropped by and gave this tumbler for you. He said that you have to drink this since the air is a bit chilly today."

"Oh!" Xu Jia Li didn't know how to respond as she took the tumbler from Shen Linqin. Wouldn't it be too obvious? She felt helpless as she looked at Shen Linqin's questioning eyes.

"Thank you, Linqin. I'll thank a.s.sistant w.a.n.g later since I asked him a favor of bringing this today." Xu Jia Li laughed awkwardly as she tried to open the lid.

"Li-jie, does a.s.sistant w.a.n.g like you?" Shen Linqin asked in a low voice before she covered her mouth, "Oh my gos.h.!.+ What should we do now? What if CEO Si found out? Haist! Li-jie, you have to be more careful. Tss. That a.s.sistant w.a.n.g has his days numbered. Haist!"

Xu Jia Li's eyes widened upon hearing Shen Linqin's 'theory'. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Pft! Linqin, stop blabbering nonsense. a.s.sistant w.a.n.g is only a friend."

"Ugh! Li-jie, you can never say. You may only view him as your friend but he may feel something different towards you. Aaahhh! It hurts my head just by thinking about it."

Xu Jia Li stifled a laugh. She was really speechless. She shook her head before she sipped from the tumbler.

"Wow! This is really good." She really loved the taste of cinnamon tea.

"Li-jie, I heard that Producer Zhang will come today. You'd better not wander away from my sight, okay? That perverted old man might say lewd things to you or worst… hold you again!"

"Okay, Ms. Shen! Stop worrying. Ha ha ha!"

"How could I not worry, Li-jie?" Shen Linqin leaned closer as she whispered, "Don't you know that there's rumor going on about him?"

"Rumor? About what?" Xu Jia Li curiously asked.

"Haist, Li-jie! How could you not know that? They say that Producer Zhang invited a new female artist for a commercial project. Of course, the new female star went, thinking that it was merely a product. Later did she find that Producer Zhang wanted to bed her when he put drugs on her tea."

"Where did you even get that?"

"The crews have been talking about that, Li-jie. They say that once Producer Zhang had his perverted eyes on you, he will do all things to get you. Just like that female star. Once she felt dizzy and all, she was raped by that old man."

Xu Jia Li's body trembled from hearing Shen Linqin's gossip. She really couldn't believe how someone could do that. Although she never trusted Producer Zhang, she still had to be polite towards him since he was one of the producers.

"Li-jie, that female celebrity is now getting more commercials. I think she already accepted that old man and settle for fame."

"Let's not talk about it, Linqin. I really disgusted."

"Okay." Shen Linqin nodded.

After a while, Li Yun approached Xu Jia Li with a basket of fruits on his hand.

"Yun-ge!" Shen Linqin happily greeted Li Yun as she stood from her seat.

"h.e.l.lo, Linqin," Li Yun smiled as he greeted Shen Linqin. Then, he turned his gaze towards Xu Jia Li, "Xiao Li, for you."

Xu Jia Li didn't know whether to accept the basket since she didn't want to give him any false hope. She gazed at Li Yun with a complicated feeling.

Seeing the two in serious manner, Shen Linqin hurriedly left without making a sound.

"Yun-ge, it's really not –"

"It's okay, Xiao Li. I know where to stand. Just let me do these things."

"B-but, Yun-ge…"

"I know, you don't want to give me false hope but still in the deepest part of the heart, I'm still hoping. I won't lie and I won't pretend that it doesn't hurt… because it does."

Xu Jia Li felt bad from seeing Li Yun, "Yun-ge… please, let us be friends… that's all that I can offer."

Li Yun patted her head as he said, "Don't be pressured. Just let me love you. You can treat me as your friend. Just like before. But please don't take away the only thing that makes me happy."

Xu Jia Li sighed deeply as she stared at the fruit basket which was still in Li Yun's hand.

"Xiao Li, I know that it's impossible for you to love me," Li Yun kneeled in front of Xu Jia Li, "Just let me continue loving you."

In the almost unnoticeable area in the café, someone took a photo of the two. It left a huge smile on that someone's lips, "How hypocritical of her! Seeing someone today and being with another the other day. I'll let you eat trash one day! b.i.t.c.h!"
