Chapter 2018: Exploded Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios Other than heart problems, there were also some chronic diseases with a high probability of aging. It would not be a big problem to recuperate carefully. In the beginning, because of the tension between Ye Qingqiu and Liang Xuer, her condition was indeed unstable. However, in the past half a year, ever since she asked Qingqiu to endure that incident, Liang Xuer did not do anything else. She calmed down and her emotions stabilized. Her condition had indeed improved. However, death was inevitable. He wasn’t afraid, but he was afraid that Qingqiu would be afraid. * After work, Li Tingshen brought Ye Qingqiu to the latest restaurant in the city. The two of them ate slowly and elegantly. Li Tingshen took a sip of ice water and looked at the elegant woman opposite him. “You don’t like it?” Ye Qingqiu shrugged. “It doesn’t feel fresh.” Perhaps because they had eaten too much in high-end restaurants, the taste was similar. The same high-end dishes couldn’t produce any other taste. “I’m far inferior to you.” Li Tingshen smirked. “I’ve never cooked these before. Mrs. Li, no matter how you compliment me, I can’t satisfy your appetite now.” “Next time, it’s been a long time since I’ve eaten your cooking.” Ye Qingqiu’s thoughts were seen through and she started to act pitiful. “Auntie Sun’s culinary skills are not bad,” Li Tingshen said, mercilessly exposing her pitiful act. That beautiful and charming face that knew how to wheedle was indeed very likable. She was very smart. After spending more than half a year together, she was no longer the pampered one who deserved to enjoy everything. Instead, she was trying to figure out a way to interact with him. She seemed to have found a trick. She knew too well what kind of women men liked. She was beautiful, obedient, and had a good figure. She was born with these and now, she knew how to maintain them. She used the most suitable skincare products and ate the best food. He had also seen her calculate the so-called calories. In front of outsiders, she looked unapproachable, arrogant, calm, dignified, and reserved. In front of him, she was soft and obedient. Even in bed, she would change her appearance. Her gentleness and openness were unbearable. She was flawless in every aspect. He grunted and leaned back in his chair with a faint smile on his handsome face. “What do you want to eat?” The happiness in Ye Qingqiu’s beautiful eyes was obvious, and she didn’t hide her slyness. “I like whatever you make.” Her mouth was as sweet as honey. Li Tingshen smirked as he watched the dessert in front of her change shape. “Do you want more?” Ye Qingqiu lowered her gaze and put down her spoon. “I’m not eating.” “Where do you want to go next?” Ye Qingqiu thought for a while and said, “How about a movie?” Li Tingshen agreed and picked up his phone. “Is there a movie you want to watch?” His action was to prepare to book the tickets. Ye Qingqiu stared at Li Tingshen for a while before announcing the name of a popular movie. Li Tingshen seemed to have successfully booked the tickets. He looked up and met Ye Qingqiu’s gaze. There was no emotion, but it was so calm that he felt that she must be thinking about something. He frowned imperceptibly, put away his phone, and asked casually, “What are you thinking about?” He seemed to have seen her expression too often recently. “Why have you been so good recently? You’ll accompany me wherever I want to go.” Li Tingshen paused. “Recently? Isn’t that the case?” “No.” Ye Qingqiu’s answer was straightforward. In the past, he had avoided her and had no intention of letting her stay in his apartment for long. It had been more than half a year, but he had never asked her to leave. Did Lian Lili not object? But the ring was still on her neck. “What time is the movie scheduled? Will it be too late if we hurry up?” Ye Qingqiu didn’t intend to let Li Tingshen answer her question. In fact, if he didn’t ask, she would never say it. No answer mattered. If she cared too much, the calmness now would definitely be broken. She didn’t want to. Li Tingshen had always felt that there was something between them. He knew she knew something. But he didn’t mention it, and neither did she. She understood it too easily. Sometimes, Li Tingshen didn’t want to know her too well. Because he knew her too well, he realized that she loved him more than he had imagined. How many grievances had she suffered for him? How many things had she endured? How many concessions had she made? How much confusion had she pretended to be? How many times had she remained silent? She ate the best, drank the best, and lived the best in all aspects. In the outside world, she was the pampered eldest daughter of the Ye family, a princess who had accumulated money. She was arrogant, arrogant, and arrogant. But the more it was like this, the greater the contrast with what she had done in front of him. It made him feel… anxious. After watching the movie, she was in a good mood. It was as if she didn’t know anything and her evaluation of the movie was mixed. In fact, compared to the hype, the quality of the movie itself was far inferior. It wasn’t that Ye Qingqiu didn’t understand, but she was still very happy. Just like how the food he cooked couldn’t be compared to the dishes in high-end restaurants, she already felt that it was delicious. And he knew. Li Tingshen, you’ve overestimated yourself. Your endurance isn’t that strong. Perhaps you’ve underestimated Ye Qingqiu’s influence. Not everything would improve with time. You should be the first to lose control. Seeing Ye Qingqiu change her shoes and walk happily into the bathroom with her clothes, Li Tingshen locked himself in the study room. He sat on a chair with a lit cigarette in his hand. The entire study room was filled with smoke… * After a series of post-production works, “Zhenlong Bureau” negotiated with a certain television station about the broadcast rights. In the end, they chose to broadcast it during the eleventh month. Everyone knew that it was the product of a huge investment. The cast, director, and publicity made everyone have high expectations for this drama. The television station was afraid that if the publicity was too much, it would fail after the drama was released. Hence, they had been dragging it out in various aspects and didn’t dare to accept it. They wanted to find a reason to delay the broadcast until the winter break, but Li Tingshen’s patience had been exhausted. The television station was unwilling to give up on this drama, so they could only bite the bullet and go on stage. Fortunately, the quality and reputation matched the publicity. It exploded. Strategy, actions, scenes, filming, actors, special effects, plot, logic, and all aspects were unprecedentedly excellent. Next was the application for copyright cooperation on various online platforms. The television station finished broadcasting the 50 episodes in a month and a half. The various video platforms endured the slow progress and followed closely behind. She had applied for membership several times and earned a fortune, but she was rejected every time. Of course, the television station didn’t agree. What Li Tingshen wanted was the popularity of the country. Even so, the number of views on the online platform had exceeded 100 million in 24 hours. With the development of the plot and the popularity of the fans, the popularity continued to rise. After that was the foreign copyright. However, it was a pity that the few heavyweight awards at the end of the year couldn’t be won. They could only wait until next year. However, she had won many other awards. Without a doubt, the award was already in the bag. If the award wasn’t given, the organizers would ruin their reputation. A drama had allowed the C&P Media to leap from a newly established small company to an existence that could not be underestimated. The reputation and status of everyone in the production team rose. Liang Xuer was naturally among them. She didn’t have many scenes, but it wasn’t much either. With the help of makeup, the director’s high standards, and post-production editing. Back then, she had been slandered badly. Now, she had turned the tables beautifully. If she thought about it carefully, she was the one who had pushed her to the center of public opinion back then, the flower vase who had brought capital into the group… Now… it was terrifying. In terms of scheming, Ye Qingqiu admitted that she was inferior. Liang Xuer was quite famous now. She had even been nominated for the Best Supporting Actress award at the end of the year. Now that she had tasted the sweetness of being an actress, the stage plays she loved were no longer career-oriented. Instead, they were all focused on film and television development. Many agencies wanted to sign her, but she rejected them all. Ye Qingqiu had a guess as to what she was up to. She didn’t have a management company and had spent money to hire an assistant. She was an intern assistant in C&P Media. It was not worth mentioning, but connections in the industry were like a spider’s web. As long as there was one, they would be connected. That assistant often went to C&P Media. She heard that someone had mentioned that they wanted to sign Liang Xuer. But there didn’t seem to be any results.
