Chapter 105 Why Should I Give In?
"No...what I mean is..." Ning Baicha paused, not knowing how to express himself.
After all, if she said at this time that she always felt that something was fishy, it would deepen Chen Ying's idea that she was biased towards Shen Shijing.
Chen Ying raised her eyebrows, crossed her arms over her chest, and waited for Ning Baicha's answer.
However, Ning Baicha just shook his head after a brief silence: "Forget it, I can't explain it to you clearly, why don't we continue to wait and see how the situation develops."
"You!" Chen Ying glanced at her angrily again, then turned around and walked away.
Ning Baicha didn't take her childish temper to heart. Instead, he took advantage of the opportunity to run away and found the end of the corridor where Shen Shijing was.
As she walked over, she smelled a faint scent of tobacco in the air.
There were no lights on in the corridor. The only light came from the window, shining on Shen Shijing, making him look like a silhouette and very beautiful.
Ning Baicha really likes Shen Shijing's face, and sometimes even thinks that this face is too handsome.
She didn't care whether Shen Shijing was a scumbag or not, because just by looking at his face, she could actually forgive Shen Shijing.
But at the moment, Ning Baicha has more important things to do.
She walked step by step to Shen Shijing's front. The darkness gradually faded away, and Shen Shijing's outline gradually became clearer in her sight.
When she was standing in front of Shen Shijing, Ning Baicha smiled and asked, "Boss Shen, what's the matter?"
Shen Shijing held a lady's cigarette between two fingers of his right hand, and his other hand was in the pocket of his suit pants. He looked down at Ning Baicha in a particularly casual posture.
Perhaps because he was born to be a superior, his expression was difficult to read.
Many times, Ning Baicha relied on one or two small actions to confirm Shen Shijing's inner thoughts.
"What if I ask you to give the Golden Elephant Award to Ning Baixuan?" He tilted his head slightly, with a faint leisurely expression on his face.
Ning Baicha's expression changed, and a hint of hostility quickly flashed across her brows, staying a little longer, but not even half a minute. She bit her lower lip lightly, and looked at Shen Shijing with a look that seemed to want to say something but couldn't.
"If you have anything to say, just say it." Shen Shijing took a puff of cigarette, turned his head away, and didn't look at Ning Baicha.
"If Mr. Shen insists that I give up, what can I say?" Ning Baicha lowered her head, her voice muffled, as if she was throwing a tantrum. "Although I may feel unhappy, Mr. Shen has already done so many things, allowing Xuanxuan to be free under your wings and get whatever she wants. Even if I am unwilling in my heart, I can only give up what should belong to me."
Shen Shijing suddenly laughed: "Something that should belong to you? Is there something that should belong to you?"
A trophy, of course.
But Ning Baicha lowered his head and said nothing.
Shen Shijing shook his head and said calmly, "I thought that according to your temperament, since you love Xuanxuan so much, you should be willing to give up an award."
"It's different..." Ning Baicha's vague voice was full of reluctance and grievance. "If it only harms my personal interests, then it's okay to give it to Xuanxuan. It will fall into the hands of our family anyway. But I can't let my companions down, and I can't let down the actors who participated in the rehearsal with me."
Shen Shijing raised his eyebrows playfully as if he had heard a funny joke, and his gaze on Ning Baicha suddenly became somewhat dangerous.
"You can't let down the actors who rehearsed with you..."
He chewed over this sentence again and again, with something dangerous in his tone.
Ning Baicha caught it keenly, but before she could figure out what the danger in Shen Shijing's tone meant, her chin was suddenly pinched by Shen Shijing, and then her lips were kissed.
The kiss came too suddenly, catching Ning Baicha off guard, and her mind went blank.
Her first reaction was that this was a theater and she couldn't let anyone see her and Shen Shijing like this.
She raised her hands and pushed Shen Shijing's chest hard, then pushed him away viciously. Her force was so great that Shen Shijing staggered a few steps.
"You...I..." Ning Baicha raised her eyes to look at Shen Shijing, and suddenly realized something. She bit her lower lip lightly, "It was too sudden, and this was in the theater."
"What? I can't kiss you in the theater?" Shen Shijing pinched Ning Baicha's chin almost hard.
Ning Baicha was pinched by him until she burst into tears. She shook her head: "No... that's not what I meant."
"Heh." Shen Shijing sneered, his eyes seemed to be filled with waves, and he said in a vicious voice, "Ning Baicha, don't forget your true identity!"
When he said this, it seemed like he was reminding Ning Baicha, but more like he was reminding himself.
But this kind of reminder does not actually bring anything really useful, it just weakens each other's mental defenses over and over again.
Don't do things that you shouldn't do.
Ning Baicha was completely confused, her nose tip was slightly red, and a tear was hanging from the corner of her eye.
She didn't know what happened to Shen Shijing.
Why did Shen Shijing suddenly become like a different person in just a few days?
But this is not Ning Baicha's most concerned issue at the moment. Her most concerned issue at the moment is to know which troupe is the winner of the Golden Elephant Award in Shen Shijing's heart?
According to what Shen Shijing said, he also recognized Yimeng, but hoped that Ning Baicha could give up the honor.
This is absolutely impossible.
Even if Shen Shijing was Ning Baicha's financial sponsor, she would not give him up.
The only difference is that Ning Baicha will not choose to fight head-on, but will save the country in a roundabout way.
She just looked up at Shen Shijing quietly, and the tear in the corner of her eye suddenly fell, as if it fiercely smashed into Shen Shijing's heart.
"Mr. Shen, I have always... abided by my duty, and I know that I mean nothing in your heart." Ning Baicha looked at him stubbornly, "You like Xuanxuan, and want me to stay by your side as her substitute, and I will do it without hesitation. But you gave Xuanxuan everything you could give, and you can't deprive me of my things and give them to Xuanxuan anymore. I don't have much in total..."
Shen Shijing suddenly felt a pain in his chest. He frowned, looked at Ning Baicha's face, and said irritably, "Shut up!"
"I won't shut up, you have to make your words clear. I can give Xuanxuan many other things. From childhood to adulthood, no matter what I have, she will like it and take it away. But now I am the winner of the Golden Elephant Award, why should I give it up?"
