Chapter 89: Mufeng’s Face Was Almost Touching Hers
While Jiang Xun was eating, the director, Hou Guanglin, suddenly called her.
“Director Hou,” she greeted, accepting the call.
“Jiang Xun, thank you. The two girls have been apprehended.” Jiang Xun could hear an obvious sense of relief in Director Hou’s voice. It was obvious that he was in a good mood after catching the crazy fans who were like ticking time bombs.
“So soon?” Jiang Xun pretended to be surprised. Since she’d already warned them, If Zhang Xiangyou’s team hadn’t managed to catch the fans, her warning would’ve gone to waste.
Guanglin didn’t know that Jiang Xun was pretending, however. He was under the impression that since Jiang Xun was still young and had just entered the industry, she was far less scheming than people who had been in the industry for a long time.
He explained happily, “After I talked to Zhang Xiangyou, they didn’t want to take a passive approach to the problem. Instead of waiting for those two to come looking for him, they thought it’d be better to release the information directly.”
“The hotel was fully booked long before we officially announced the guests for this episode. The two fans must have had connections to get a hotel reservation. Therefore, Zhang Xiangyou released his room number. As expected, the two got the information through an unknown channel and found his room.”
“Zhang Xiangyou’s team then contacted the hotel and called the police to investigate whether the hotel had leaked his information or not,” Guanglin explained. “Now, both Zhang Xiangyou and the program team don’t have to worry about delaying the filming because of those crazed fans.”
At this moment, Mufeng peeled a crayfish and pressed it to Jiang Xun’s mouth.
Jiang Xun was on the phone and didn’t have time to be distracted. She subconsciously opened her mouth and allowed Mufeng to feed her.
However, Mufeng wasn’t wearing any gloves.
By the time Jiang Xun reacted, her lips had already accidentally pressed against his fingertips.
Jiang Xun was so shocked that she sucked in a breath of cold air. Her face was as red as a freshly boiled crayfish, and she hurriedly pulled away.
She was distantly aware that Mufeng had still been wearing disposable gloves when she accepted the call just now. When did he take them off?
“Jiang Xun, what’s wrong?” Guanglin asked with concern when he heard Jiang Xun’s gasp.
Mufeng’s gaze was dark as he looked down at his fingertips that she’d inadvertently kissed. His breathing was heavy as he licked his dry lips.
“It’s nothing.” The redness on Jiang Xun’s face had not subsided and she could only pretend to be calm. “You don’t have to be polite with me. I just happened to bump into those fans, so I couldn’t just keep quiet about it.”
“Hehe, okay.” Guanglin chuckled and asked again, “You just arrived not long ago, right? Have you eaten?”
Jiang Xun opened her mouth and was about to answer when Mufeng stuffed another piece of crayfish meat into her mouth.
This time, Jiang Xun reacted quickly and made sure not to touch his fingertips. However, she could not miss the fire in Mufeng’s eyes as his finger “accidentally” brushed against Jiang Xun’s lips again.
She couldn’t help but glance at him, but Mufeng didn’t seem to notice it at all and continued to peel the crayfish for her.
“I’m eating now,” Jiang Xun replied.
“Oh, okay. Then please enjoy your meal,” Guanglin said hurriedly.
He finally hung up the phone.
Jiang Xun didn’t know how fast Mufeng’s hands were. When she hung up the phone, he’d already finished peeling yet another crayfish.
Seeing that he was going to stuff it into her mouth again, Jiang Xun quickly put down her phone and snatched the crayfish from Mufeng’s hand. “I’ll do it myself!”
Mufeng watched helplessly as Jiang Xun took the crayfish meat, saying “I’ll peel it myself. You can’t deprive me of the satisfaction of peeling the shells off.”
“…”
Alright then.
At this moment, the doorbell rang again.
Mufeng took a wet towel and wiped his fingertips clean, even though they didn’t have too much sauce on them.
Jiang Xun couldn’t help but feel regretful that she didn’t have the time to watch him peeling the crayfish just now. She didn’t know how he managed to peel the crayfish without gloves and notget the sauce all over his hands.
After wiping his fingers clean, Mufeng got up and opened the door. Because Mufeng had ordered a huge amount of food, the hotel waiter had to push his food in with a trolley.
As Jiang Xun ate, she sighed silently. Mufeng was actually a pretty good person.
Even though she was eating so much, he hadn’t said a word, nor had he looked at her as if she was some kind of animal. Instead, he’d taken the initiative to buy so much food for her just so that she wouldn’t go hungry.
After dinner, Mufeng called the staff over to collect all the food.
Mufeng didn’t intend to stay over; it wasn’t good for him to stay in a girl’s room for too long, and it wouldn’t do Jiang Xun any good if he were to be seen exiting her room.
However, at this moment, the director sent the both of them the script for the episode. He wanted them to know what the general direction the filming would be going in the next day.
Mufeng saw that Jiang Xun had already opened the script up and was reading it. A thought suddenly came to mind as he said, “Can I take a look at your script?”
“Of course.” Jiang Xun was about to forward the document to Mufeng, but he had already moved closer and sat down beside her. He moved closer to Jiang Xun, his face almost touching hers as he read the script with her.
“…Why don’t I just send the script to you?” Jiang Xun suggested after a few seconds of silence.
Surely Mufeng would find it tiring to read like this.
“There’s no need to trouble yourself. I can just look at it like this.” Mufeng turned to look at Jiang Xun. The two of them were very close to each other now. He could see Jiang Xun’s eyelashes. They were dark, thick, and naturally curly.
She blinked like a butterfly flapping its wings, and the motion was enough to send his heart into disarray. It was as if her eyelashes were tickling him.
It felt soft and itchy.
However, Mufeng looked calm and unperturbed as he retracted his gaze and continued reading Jiang Xun’s script.
There weren’t many words in the script; it was only a rough description of the procedures for the next day. As for the filming process, there weren’t any prewritten lines. It was entirely up to the guest to perform.
The two of them finished reading very quickly.
“Do you want to see mine?” Mufeng turned to ask Jiang Xun.
As he spoke, his hot breath brushed past her ears and cheeks, and Jiang Xun’s face unconsciously turned red.
The two of them were really too close to each other.
The cedar fragrance on Mufeng’s body was also tinged with a subtle wood fragrance, but it was impossible to tell which fragrance was from the moisturizer.
It also sent Jiang Xun’s mind into a state of chaos. She felt like the heat on her face was burning the fragrance into her very skin.
Mufeng took a deep breath and restrained the deep and burning fire in his eyes.
He lowered his eyes to hide his emotions and opened up the script in his wechat. Like before, he read it together with Jiang Xun.
Jiang Xun’s hair inadvertently swept past the corners of his lips and the tip of his nose, directly tickling Mufeng’s heart.
Mufeng’s attention was already completely focused on Jiang Xun. He couldn’t read the contents of the script at all.
“Eh?” He heard Jiang Xun’s puzzled voice.
Only then did Mufeng pull himself together and ask hoarsely, “What’s wrong?”
