[R18] These men are poisonous – “These Men Are Poisonous” Chapter 30 [English]

Chapter 30 Changing roles

This day is Chinese Valentine’s Day, the traditional Chinese Valentine’s Day.

Although he had known that he would go into the mountains to film, Qiu Yibai still had wonderful fantasies about this day.

For example, find a place with a nice environment to watch the stars or the sunrise with Zuo Ning, talk about their future, and have the most beautiful kiss under the night sky or the morning sun.

Another example is to experience a field battle that we have never tried before. Of course, car shock is also acceptable. Anyway, when the love is deep, there will always be close contact.

Just thinking about it, he never imagined that on this day, he would meet Zuo Ning, a completely stranger to him, who made people feel extremely distressed.

The look Zuo Ning looked at Jiang Chunxin, that angry, resentful, bone-chilling but desperate look, really gave him the illusion that the next moment she would hold the fruit knife and stab Jiang Chunxin straight into the chest.

Almost subconsciously, he stepped forward and hugged Zuo Ning tightly, both to comfort her and to stop her from doing stupid things.

Faster than he was Gao Xia, who had already rushed over and grabbed the fruit knife on the table the moment Zuo Ning stood up.

Of course they don’t care about Jiang Chunxin’s life or death, but they are really afraid that Zuo Ning will impulsively do something that they will regret.

But Zuo Ning did nothing in the end.

She just looked at Jiang Chunxin intently for a while, then she held the broken jade and went to the room on the second floor without looking back. She didn’t come out until the crew came back from filming in the evening.

Qiu Yibai wished he could be by her side all the time, but there were so many people on the crew, and he couldn’t forget about his personal duties, so he could only tell Xiao Lin to guard her every step of the way.

Fortunately, when he came back, Xiao Lin told him that Zuo Ning was in good condition and had gone to bed early.

Jiang Chunxin had naturally been arranged to go to another room. When she saw Qiu Yibai, Xiao Lin also took the initiative to sleep with others next door.

When Qiu Yibai went in, She was frowning tightly in her sleep, holding her collar with both hands in front of her chest and shrinking, as if she was afraid of something.

Under the light, her little face looked very pale, there were thin beads of sweat on her forehead, and even the corners of her eyes were moist.

Qiu Yibai’s chest felt tight when he saw it, and he felt like something was pulling him somewhere in his heart, causing him throbbing pain.

Over the past few days, he would hold her in his arms and fall asleep every night. When she slept, she was just a well-behaved kitten, cute and attractive.

She has never shown such a fragile look in front of him.

She is now like a porcelain doll on the verge of breaking, making he so nervous that he doesn’t even dare to touch it lightly.

⸢Mom…⸥Zuo Ning groaned, his voice was hoarse, and his brows were furrowed.

⸢Ning Ning!⸥Qiu Yibai sat beside the bed, holding her hand tightly, her voice was extremely soft, ⸢Don’t be afraid Ning Ning, I’m here.⸥

In her sleep, she seemed to have suddenly grasped a life-saving straw. Her hands became harder and harder, and her nails were deeply embedded in his skin, but she was still trembling slightly.

The tears slipped quietly from the corners of her eyes, dripping slowly along her hair on the blue sheets, and gradually fainted little by little.

⸢Don’t be afraid Ningning, you just had a nightmare, Ningning, Ningning!⸥

Zuo Ning’s trembling body shook violently. Zuo Ning opened his eyes and looked at the blurry incandescent lights on the ceiling through his tears. He was stunned for a long time before murmuring: ⸢Am I awake?⸥

Qiu Yibai lowered his head and kissed the tears from the corner of her eyes gently: “It’s okay, you just had a nightmare, it’s okay now, Ning Ning, don’t be afraid, I’m here.”⸥

⸢Qiu Yibai…⸥ She stretched out her hands and hugged his neck tightly, pressing her whole face against his chest, ⸢Qiu Yibai, Qiu Yibai…⸥

⸢I’m here, don’t be afraid.⸥

⸢Qiu Yibai, can you talk to me?I don’t want to sleep anymore, I don’t want to see that scene again.⸥

⸢Okay, I’ll tell you what you want to hear.⸥

⸢Anything you say is fine, as long as you don’t fall asleep, anything you listen to is fine.⸥

That night, Qiu Yibai did not close his eyes all night long, but Zuo Ning fell asleep again after listening to what he said for a long time.

She has been sleeping uneasily, and any movement will startle her. The only thing to be thankful for is that she doesn’t seem to have nightmares anymore.

Qiu Yibai couldn’t sleep, firstly because he was afraid that something would happen to her again, and secondly because he suddenly realized that he really didn’t know much about her.

In fact, if we carefully calculate the time, he and she have only known each other for more than a month. Even though they have had the most intimate relationship, he knows almost nothing about her.

If she hadn’t gone to the cemetery that day, he wouldn’t have known that her mother had passed away and that the bracelet was so important to her.

If he hadn’t mentioned it accidentally that night, he wouldn’t have known that she no longer had a family.

He only knows that her home is local, but she doesn’t even have a house to live in now.

He only knows that she has written many novels, but except for the current film “Home”, he has never read any of them.

He only knew that she had never been in love before, but he didn’t know why such a dazzling girl as she had never had a boyfriend.

He even felt that his current boyfriend seemed not very qualified, or should I say, not very successful, because she was unwilling to tell him the things she was hiding in her heart.

Even though she was in a situation like this tonight, she didn’t cry and throw herself into her boyfriend’s arms like other girls and talk her heart out.

Qiu Yibai felt sorry for her, but also felt a little defeated.

However, we have a long time to come, our interactions seem too hasty, and some things must be done step by step and slowly.

Of course, there is one thing that needs to be solved urgently right now.

When the sky turned white, Qiu Yibai got out of bed quietly, walked outside the yard, and dialed Qiu Yimo’s phone: ⸢I want to replace Jiang Chunxin.⸥

Qiu Yimo over there didn’t seem to have gotten up yet, and his voice was a little hoarse: “You drank too much and you still haven’t woken up?”⸥

⸢I’m very sober. She’s performance has been holding back the entire crew. It’s far inferior to the feeling of the original audition. I’ve long had the idea of ​​substituting, but I haven’t been able to make up my mind… ⸥

⸢Then why have you made up your mind now?Don’t forget, you’ve been filming for more than a month.⸥

⸢ She bullied my woman, is this reason enough?⸥

Qiu Yimo seemed stunned for a moment: ⸢What’s wrong with Zuo Ning?⸥

⸢It’s nothing, in short, I have thought clearly, the person must be changed, not only for Zuo Ning, but also for the entire drama.I have an unshirkable responsibility from the very beginning when Jiang Chunxin was finalized. Now you only need to use your identity to help me coordinate as much as possible. All other consequences will be borne by me. I will be fully responsible for the lost funds and will never implicate the company.⸥

Qiu Yimo thought seriously for a moment and said calmly: ⸢Let’s talk about it when you come back.⸥

After a pause, he suddenly said: ⸢Qiu Yibai, do you know that you have a shortcoming that you have never been able to correct since you were a child?⸥

⸢What do you want to say?⸥

⸢You have always had your own ideas and never gave up when faced with difficulties. But one thing is that you are too indecisive when making decisions.From the moment you felt Jiang Chunxin was not suitable and had the idea of ​​replacing him, you should have worked hard to strive for this possibility, but you didn’t even mention this idea to me, so the development of things now is the biggest lesson for you.⸥
