Chapter 161: It’s Important To Appease Her Husband

Mu Xiaoya didn’t even finish her scene that day, and all the people were staring at her with gazes like piercing needles. Mu Xiaoya had left the set before the sun came down.

Ye Shengge watched her leave and smiled calmly before continuing her own shoot.

After work, she went back to her suite and lay on the bed after showering, not wanting to move at all.

Lin Qi massaged her, and Ye Shengge heard her phone ring.

She put her phone to her ear and picked up the phone without looking at the caller ID.

Ye Shengge paused momentarily when she heard the deep breathing coming from the other end of the phone. She suddenly said, “Shiting?”

Ji Shiting nodded and said, “Why aren’t you back yet?”

“Didn’t Sister Xiu tell you? I won’t be back tonight,” Ye Shengge explained. “The crew starts work early and ends late, so I’m staying in the Film City. That way, I’ll be able to rest a bit longer. There’s a one day break in about two weeks. I’ll be back then.”

There was silence on the other end of the phone.

Ye Shengge’s heart skipped a beat, and she quickly added, “Sorry, I should’ve told you earlier.”

“It’s alright.” Ji Shiting said calmly. “Sleep early and be careful.”

He then hung up the phone.

Ye Shengge heard the busy tone on the phone, and she immediately called Ji Shiting.

“Anything else?” Ji Shiting asked.

Ye Shengge asked, “Were you hoping that I would go back?”

Ji Shiting snorted, “What do you think?”

“Um…” Ye Shengge was dazed.

Ji Shiting hung up the phone again.

Ye Shengge stared at him and scratched her hair. Although Ji Shiting sounded aloof, she still felt that the man wanted her to be home.

If he didn’t mind, he wouldn’t have called her.

Thinking of that, Ye Shengge made up her mind and got out of bed. “Get the driver ready, Xiao Qi. I need to head back.”

“Ah? It’s almost 9 pm. You’ll have to be on the set tomorrow at 6 am.” Lin Qi was astonished.

“I know. I won’t be late,” Ye Shengge said as she started to change her clothes.

It was more important to appease her husband.

…

Qianfan Villa.

In the study, Ji Shiting put aside his phone.

He tapped his fingers on the desk and snorted.

He hadn’t expected the woman to be at a closed-door shoot.

Speaking of which, she hadn’t been living in the villa for many days, yet Ji Shiting couldn’t get used to it when she wasn’t around. Even if she didn’t do anything, just the thought of her at home waiting for him was different.

However, he couldn’t go back on his word.

The man took a deep breath and continued to work.

He left the study room and returned to his bedroom around 10:30 pm.

Ji Shiting’s pupils contracted when he saw the slender figure lying on the sofa. He almost thought his eyes were mistaken.

However, the person on the sofa moved. She sat up and smiled at him, “Are you done with your work?”

Ji Shiting pursed his lips and looked at her. “Why are you back?”
