A Contractual Marriage with the Best Leading Actor - Chapter 100

A Newly Written Love Story (3)

On the other hand, the makeup artist couldn’t help but be envious of him.

‘Bai Qi surely received a lot of money!!!’

Bai Qi felt like he wasn’t doing enough. He badly wanted to be as playful as possible. He said in a small voice, “If I were to ask Xi-ge, he would rush to buy me the entire city of Paris for me ~”

‘Argh, this should be cringe enough.’

‘Bai Qi, you are the best!’

The makeup artist was swearing in their heart and was so jealous to a point where they thought they were about to have a heart attack.

Just then, the door was pushed open and Xi Chengyun returned. The makeup artist immediately straightened their back.

“I have to use eyeshadow?” Bai Qi looked at the small brush the makeup artist was holding.

The makeup artist was a little scared with Xi Chengyun around and replied, “Yes.”

Bai Qi closed his eyes and left the makeup artist to do their work.

Xi Chengyun stood aside and stared at them fixedly.

It was clear that the makeup artist was doing the makeup based on their own aesthetic preferences.

Bai Qi’s eyes were elongated, his eyelashes were curled and his originally deep-set eyes were shaded to make them look even deeper.

“… I’m done,” the makeup artist said while feeling a huge sense of pressure.

Bai Qi opened his eyes. He wasn’t able to adjust to the new feeling quickly. He blinked twice and his eyes soon watered.

This makeup… had turned him into a thorough beauty, one who was beautiful and lithe.

He looked like a delicate piece of artwork.

When he shifted his gaze, he looked like he was flirting with his eyes.

Xi Chengyun gulped, and his Adam’s apple moved. He took off the gemstone brooch that was on his chest and bent down to pin it on Bai Qi’s outfit.

He reached his hand out to Bai Qi and said, “Let’s go.”

Bai Qi intertwined his arms with Xi Chengyun’s and intimately leaned into him. If Bai Qi had taken dance classes before, he would be shaking his butt right now.

Xi Chengyun immediately froze, but quickly regained his senses.

‘What is he trying to be?’

‘A clingy beauty?’

Something stirred in Xi Chengyun’s heart. He stretched his arm out and held Bai Qi by his waist.

When he touched him, Xi Chengyun seemed to enter a trance.

Bai Qi’s waist was very slender. It wasn’t a frail type of slenderness, but instead was lean and strong, and his curves were also beautiful. It made people desire him, wanting to capture him within the palm of their hands.

The makeup artist who was standing behind them was on the verge of breaking down in anger.

The livestream interview was about to start soon.

Although they weren’t the only guests for this episode, they were the center of the show.

Countless audiences clicked into the live broadcast when the camera shifted and focused on the center of the stage.

The host asked, “Could you tell us the story of how the both of you met?”

“Has anyone taken the wrong suitcase before?” Xi Chengyun was wearing a shirt with his sleeves slightly folded, which put his forearm muscles on display.

There was a hint of casualness in his graceful display.

“It is highly unlikely.”

“Plus, it’s even less likely to take a suitcase that is exactly the same as yours which is not locked.”

“You’d usually put your everyday necessities in your suitcase, like clothes and toiletries, and perhaps even documents related to your job and studies… One could say that a suitcase is a miniature version of a person’s life.”

“Bai Qi took my suitcase, and I got his. The moment I opened the suitcase, I could piece together a human through the bits and pieces in the case, in fact, it was a shining and beautiful human.”

“It’s a wonderful experience. It feels as if you’ve exited your originally lifeless world and embarked on a new vibrant journey; walking into a sky of blue from a sea of grey.”

This special ‘love at first sight’ story from Xi Chengyun was particularly convincing plus it is also very romantic.

“You’ll find out that he likes to wear soft cotton socks and warm-colored clothing. You’ll find out that he has beautiful handwriting, and that whenever he goes on a trip, he has to bring a book along…”

Xi Chengyun said unhurriedly, with his eyes fixed on Bai Qi.

Bai Qi was stunned.

Xi Chengyun wasn’t wrong.

And for a second, Bai Qi almost thought that Xi Chengyun fell in love with him because of the whole mishap he’d just narrated.

Xi Chengyun has only seen his luggage once.

It was when they filmed for the second episode. Xi Chengyun helped him to fetch something from his luggage, and within that short period, he was able to remember everything…

Xi Chengyun’s speech was well organized, and he even gave a small smile at appropriate moments.

However, his muscles were entirely tensed and his heart was in the abyss.

The more he analyzed, the more he realized that when someone caught his eyes, he’d act like a ferocious beast. He’d explore every aspect of the person, be it intentionally or unintentionally, and would ingrain everything in his mind.

And one day, it’ll turn into uncontrollable possessiveness.

Some may find it romantic, while others may find it terrifying.
