Ch5 - Unclean

Edited by Ning

It seemed that he had come from another event. Zhou Ziheng, who was wearing a gray-green jacket, walked in a hurry. After entering the door, he greeted the surrounding staff.

“Sorry I’m late.” AMqPo7

The wide collar covered half of his face, revealing only a pair of deep-lined eyes.

“Ziheng is here.”

He has good popularity. He used to record the programs of this TV station, and the staff who came and talked to him liked him very much. Zhou Ziheng is only a twenty-year-old young man, and to most people in this circle is like a younger brother. It’s just that his usually too strong aura makes people always ignore his age.

The make-up artist pulled him aside to fix and style his hair. Last night, he was shooting for a magazine until early in the morning, and after the shoot, he rushed to the movie promotion. Zhou Ziheng, who was seriously sleepless, asked the stylist to just blow his hair then closed his eyes to make up for his sleep. oaUEJg

“Xiao Heng’s clothes look great today.” The makeup artist sister smiled gently.

Not enough rest caused the brain to react slowly. Zhou Ziheng opened his eyes and answered honestly, “This set is sponsored by the brand.”

“Pfft.” The makeup artist laughed and sprayed his hair with a styling spray, “You are still so real.”

Seeing that his condition is really not good, Assistant Xiaoluo hurried to buy a cup of iced coffee. Just as Zhou Ziheng’s hair styling was finished, he waited to shoot the promo. He took the coffee and said thank you, and walked out of the dressing room.

He bypassed the studio area and came to the semi-open rest area. Zhou Ziheng took two sips of coffee and put it aside. He stretched out his two long legs and sat on the sofa at the side. He tilted his head and looked around. His eyes swept around and looked at everything, that is, he deliberately avoided Xia Xiqing, the center of the spotlight.

“Okay, Xiqing is fine!”

Xia Xiqing thanked the photographer and looked at Zhou Ziheng. The other party was sitting on the sofa, the collar of the upright jacket was pulled up to cover half of his face, showing only a pair of good-looking eyes and thick tightly frowning eyebrows. The words ‘unhappy’ were clearly written on it.

Why is this person so funny? As if he was dragged by force, Xia Xiqing walked over. It was still okay before he went over, but as soon as he got closer, it was obvious that the opponent’s brows were frowning deeper. oRu4OZ

Don’t you want me to sit here? Xia Xiqing raised his eyebrows and sat down directly beside Zhou Ziheng. He also smiled at him with his head sideways, the same way he did the last time they met unexpectedly.

Zhou Ziheng looked up silently, and the whole person moved aside, thinking, you are still pretending with me here.

Xia Xiqing didn’t feel embarrassed that his hot face was met with a cold butt, instead, he even felt that Zhou Ziheng was more interesting than he thought. He smiled and leaned on the sofa, stretching his long legs wrapped in suit pants.

Zhou Ziheng not only didn’t want to see him, but also didn’t want to listen to him. He took out his mobile phone and earphones from his jacket and was about to put them in his ears when he heard Xia Xiqing speak.

“You treat your fans like this, be careful that I’ll stop being your fan and become an anti.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Zhou Ziheng’s hand holding the earphones pause, hesitated for a while, and finally turned slightly to look at him. dB54kW

The word “fan” is very useful. Xia Xiqing smiled inwardly.

The two people looked at each other without embarrassment for a while, Zhou Ziheng finally opened his mouth. Probably out of respect, when he spoke, he opened the zipper on his collar and said seriously, “I’m not targeting you. I just don’t like people who are unfaithful in their relationships.”

Xia Xiqing was stunned for half a second.

Where did this… fairy little angel come from? With a face that was naturally so Alpha, he is so honest in his bones. 9SKejt

He smiled, his lips curled up like a cunning cat, “How do you know I am unfaithful?”

Zhou Ziheng’s eyebrows didn’t stretch out at all, but they twisted deeper.  He remembered the situation when he met Xia Xiqing in the bathroom that day, and this seemingly innocent person said such vicious words.

Seeing the complicated expression on Zhou Ziheng’s face, Xia Xiqing suddenly became serious, with a sincere light in his eyes. He sincerely defended himself, “Really, It’s not what you think. You misunderstood me. What happened that day was very complicated, it’s hard to explain in a short moment, but that person was not my partner, and he has been pestering me for a long time. Besides, aside from me, he’s still hanging out with other people. It’s because I really couldn’t stand it anymore that I was forced to say those words to scare him. For someone like me who looks easy to bully, I’ll really lose too much if I can’t say some cruel words.” His lips were pursed and the expression on his face was a bit frustrated and aggrieved. He raised his hand and touched the tip of his nose, “I’ve been really uncomfortable these days. It’s obvious that I’m the one who’s being harassed, and I’m considered a scum by my idol.”

The word ‘idol’ is very useful, Zhou Ziheng’s expression has obviously become a lot softer. Xia Xiqing sighed, his eyes were innocent and aggrieved, “I swear to you, I am definitely not the kind of person who is unfaithful in my relationships.” tmfDyc

It’s just that once I feel that the other party really likes me, I would want to escape.

I only like to chase the excitement of others, and my degree of faithfulness to challenging problems is almost pathological. Once the challenge was completed, the previous dry wood fire would be poured with cold water and extinguished cleanly.

He looked at Zhou Ziheng’s eyes with an expression that was so sincere that even professional actors could hardly distinguish between true and false. He did not fear any scrutiny, “I really like you very much, I have painted a lot of pictures.”

Seeing that Zhou Ziheng’s eyebrows were slightly stretched out, there was less doubt in his eyes. Xia Xiqing just stretched out his hand to him, “The first time we met, it was so embarrassing and caused misunderstanding. I’m really sorry. Let’s get to know each other again.” Pkz3 8

Zhou Ziheng’s arms crossed his chest, and he was not very willing to stretch out his hands. His eyes swept across Xia Xiqing’s body. After hesitating for a long time, he finally compromised.

He thought of the picture painted by Xia Xiqing.

The temperature of the two hands overlapped, and there was a wonderful sense of blending.

“My name is Xia Xiqing.” Olhn7A

Zhou Ziheng’s chin slightly pointed, and the superior jaw line affected the muscles of the side neck. Although the “fan” in front of him must know his name, out of courtesy, he still succinctly declared his name, “Zhou Ziheng.”

After he finished talking, he was about to take his hand back, but he felt that the other party was holding his hand forcefully. He looked up at him with some doubts, but only saw Xia Xiqing smiling, “Hey, don’t you want to know which words my name is written with?”

This man is really strange.

Zhou Ziheng raised his chin slightly, and there was a trace of impatience in his face. This expression made him look particularly attractive, but he still kept the last patience, “Which words.” 8FadSD

“Xi as in the Xi in ‘study’, as for Qing…”

Before he finished speaking, the slender white hand holding Zhou Ziheng’s palm suddenly made a sudden force, and mechanically pulled him forward. The defensive distance was shortened rapidly under his pull. Zhou Ziheng’s dark brown pupils dilated slightly, and he almost knocked into that seemingly innocent face, leaving only a slight invisible distance between the tip of their noses.

The smell of perfume on Xia Xiqing superseded him as the most cunning invader, pouring in, spreading, and occupying the high ground.

The brief moment of closeness was like an infinitely slow motioned shot, turning into frame by frame of light and shadow. The distance was too close, even their breaths burned ambiguously, the smell of spicy pepper, thick tobacco and sweet musk were all rolled up together, making Zhou Ziheng frown, but when the acceptance reached the end, he felt a subtle sweetness. The smell, unbiased, penetrated into the breath, and entered the lungs. yrbiCP

In the complex fragrance, a similarly ambiguous voice spread from the corner of his smiling mouth.

“It’s the ‘Qing’ in 'unclean'.”

Xia Xiqing let go of his hand, and the left corner of his mouth curled up, eyes full of teasing.

Obviously, he was still defending his morality the previous second, but the next second he showed his true face maliciously. 3kbZXH

Absolutely, absolutely can’t believe this face anymore.

Zhou Ziheng: next time, I absolutely must not let him succeed. I must gain wisdom after taking a cut. [clench one’s fist] iXse5D

Xia Xiqing: do you think I’m delicious? [smile]

Zhou Ziheng: … Farewell.

meaning his kindness/enthusiasm etc was rejected coldly

清白 means pure/clean/innocent, but XXQ introduced himself with all the negatives, so it became unclean
