CSGM - Chapter 125
Chapter 125: The Puppy Knows How to Kiss
A calm, focused tenderness flowed through time. Sparks ignited in Ren Zhi's beautiful, gem-like eyes.
Hot? She was hot too. The blood flowing from her heart boiled and roared through her entire body.
Her hand pressed against the nape of Chu Xi's neck.
The gentle invasion was like the night wind rustling through the trees.
By the sea, albatrosses spread their wings of longing for each other.
On the ice, a penguin's call before its nest found its one and only mate.
On the plains, field mice sniffed and licked, cleaning each other's fur.
In the deep sea, whales opened their fins to touch, their bodies rubbing together.
On the lake, swans bent their long necks to nuzzle their mates, their beaks resting against each other.
In the lake's water, schools of fish blew bubbles, sustaining each other with their very breath.
In the silent, flowing time, they heard the faintest thrum of each other's heartbeats.
Warm breaths melted into the embrace of their lips.
The long kiss ended, and Chu Xi moved away from Ren Zhi, panting.
Her face was as red as if she were having an allergic reaction, her slightly dazed eyes filled with surprised delight at the mysterious feeling.
Ren Zhi sat up and laughed at her, reaching out to touch her crimson ear. The base of her ear felt like it had been scalded with hot water.
Chu Xi looked at her, smiled as well, and leaned down to press against her, wrapping her arms around her.
"Baby, Baby... you smell so good."
The word "Baby" tumbled from Chu Xi's lips as if coated in honey. Just saying it made an endless tenderness well up in her heart.
Ren Zhi, however, sounded a little shy.
She placed her hands on Chu Xi's face, cupping her head. "Who told you to call me that? Where did you learn it?"
"I'm a natural..."
After muttering her reply, Chu Xi suddenly felt a little impressed with herself and broke into a grin.
"Ehehe, my Baby."
As she spoke, she straightened up, held the back of Ren Zhi's head, and kissed her on the cheek, forehead, and the tip of her nose.
Now she wouldn't have to fly the drone down to keep Ren Zhi company while she slept.
Chu Xi lifted the covers and rolled right into bed.
She covered both her and Ren Zhi's legs, patted the corner of the blanket, and said with a smile:
"Don't be scared anymore. Let's sleep together. I'll stay with you."
"Wait a second..."
But Ren Zhi suddenly got out of bed on the other side.
Chu Xi watched her, bewildered.
"I'm just going to the bathroom. I'll be right back."
Ren Zhi turned her head to the side, hiding the slightly awkward expression on her face as she explained.
Chu Xi, not noticing a thing, nodded. "Okay, I'll wait for you."
Before going to the bathroom, Ren Zhi made a quick trip to the walk-in closet to grab a clean pair of underwear.
Inside the bathroom, she took off the pair she was wearing, which was damp, and glanced at it, blushing.
She'd actually gotten a little aroused from the kiss. She never expected the puppy to be so good at kissing.
She quietly touched herself there and flinched at how sensitive it was. She quickly pulled out some tissue and wiped where she needed to.
Tossing away what shouldn't be seen, she rinsed her hands with cold water before returning to the bedroom.
When she entered the room, Chu Xi was sitting on the bed, having already stripped herself bare.
Her pajamas, quickly folded, lay by the head of the bed.
Ren Zhi looked at her upper body and froze for a moment in the doorway.
Chu Xi patted the bed with a wide smile, calling to her, "Come on, let's sleep."
Ren Zhi walked back slowly, her gaze fixed on the defined blocks of Chu Xi's abs and the powerful, fluid lines of her arms.
"Why are you... not wearing any clothes?"
Chu Xi replied without thinking, "I'm so hot, Baby."
She was still hot after the kiss, and Chu Xi felt it would be more comfortable to sleep without clothes.
As soon as Ren Zhi got into bed, Chu Xi grabbed her cool, still slightly damp hands and pressed them against her body.
The cool touch on her scorching skin made Chu Xi sigh in comfort, as if she were eating a popsicle in summer.
"Baby, your hands are so soft."
"They're so cold. What if you catch a cold? Let me warm them up for you."
Chu Xi led her hands, pressing them all over her body with a comfortable smile.
Ren Zhi had no choice but to pinch her waist. But her waist was all trained muscle, with no soft fat, and the feeling of pinching it was indescribable.
Chu Xi flinched back in pain, asking aggrievedly, "What's wrong?"
Ren Zhi said fiercely, "Sleep. Stop messing around, or we won't be able to fall asleep."
"How could we not fall asleep..."
Chu Xi muttered, wrapping an arm around her back and pulling her into an embrace.
"Sleep, sleep. I'm here with you."
She gently patted Ren Zhi's back.
And with a few pats, she was asleep.
The next morning.
Gentle sunlight shone on every precious inch of the high-end residential complex.
Ren Zhi felt like she was being invaded by an octopus.
Chu Xi's legs were tangled around hers, and her arms were clamped tightly around her.
She lay on the sheets, smiling helplessly.
"Get up."
"No... Baby, can we sleep a little longer? Please?"
Hugging Ren Zhi, Chu Xi didn't want to get up.
She didn't want to separate.
Even less did she want to go to a place with so many prying eyes where they had to be careful.
Ren Zhi tried to push her off, but her arms were like suction cups, not budging an inch.
"We have to go to the set. Get up."
Ren Zhi was so exasperated she had to laugh.
That 170 IQ she flaunted-did being in love eat 169 points of it?
Ren Zhi had no choice but to say, "I'll give you ten seconds. If you get up within ten seconds, you can have a good morning kiss."
"Ten, nine..."
Chu Xi propped herself up, swaying as she rose. She shook her head and leaned in toward her face.
But Ren Zhi pushed her away with one hand and took the opportunity to get out of bed.
"Not now. Go wash up first."
"Oh..." Chu Xi sat up, ruffled her hair, and stared into space for a while.
A short while later, after she had tidied herself up and washed her face, she redeemed her good morning kiss in front of the bathroom mirror.
Ren Zhi's fingers pressed into her shoulders, wrinkling her clothes.
During the kiss, her little whimpers were all swallowed by Chu Xi.
After ten minutes of entanglement, Chu Xi looked at the awkward amount of time left before they had to leave and suddenly realized-
What? We still have to eat breakfast?
How did I completely forget about that today? I'm not even that hungry...
They hastily made two servings of boiled vegetables to fill their stomachs. When they left, the two had to part ways.
Although they were going to the same set, Ren Zhi had made it clear last night that they had to be as careful as possible from now on to avoid anyone noticing anything.
Ren Zhi was picked up first by her assistant, and a little later, Chu Xi got into Jin Yuan's Mercedes.
Seeing Chu Xi get in the car alone, Jin Yuan seemed a little disappointed.
"Xixi, why isn't Teacher Ren letting you ride with her again?"
Chu Xi fastened her seatbelt, propped her chin on two fingers, and looked out the window, saying nonchalantly:
"If she doesn't, she doesn't."
Seeing her dejected appearance, Jin Yuan asked worriedly:
"Xixi, are you okay...?"
Chu Xi continued to look out the window, suppressing a secret smile.
"I'm fine, don't worry."
Jin Yuan drove for a while, glancing at the seemingly crestfallen Xixi, and probed in a low voice.
"So, about your confession to Teacher Ren..."
"Sigh, that's all in the past. Let's not talk about it anymore," Chu Xi sighed.
"Are you still going to pursue her...?"
"Not anymore."
"Then what will you do...?"
"I don't know. We'll just leave it like this for now."
Jin Yuan glanced at the heartbroken Xixi, who wouldn't even look at her, and her own heart broke a little.
Chu Xi hesitated for a moment, wondering if she should tell Jin Yuan.
Never mind. I'll wait and ask Ren Zhi tonight first.
"Ehehe."
"Ehehe..."
Chu Xi kept her gaze outside, letting out little chuckles of amusement from time to time.
Jin Yuan looked at her, confused. She happened to glance over and saw that the curve of her smiling lips was very obvious, even from the side.
Jin Yuan: ...?
Something felt strange. Could something have happened that she didn't know about?
During the waiting period after finishing hair and makeup in the morning, Jin Yuan noticed that Chu Xi didn't go visit Ren Zhi's dressing room. She just sat in her chair, passing the time on her phone.
Chu Xi: 【Baby, I miss you so much, Baby.】
Chu Xi: 【Stare.jpg】
Chu Xi: 【Nuzzle.jpg】
Chu Xi: 【Holding up a heart.jpg】
Chu Xi: 【Do you miss me? Should I sneak over?】
In another dressing room, Ren Zhi looked at her phone.
"..."
Hasn't it only been forty minutes since her makeup was done?
She fiddled with the little dog on her keychain for a moment before typing a reply with her other hand:
【Don't come over. We'll be out on set soon.】
She was certain this was Chu Xi's first time experiencing what it was like to be in a relationship. Her reactions were hilarious.
She was acting just like a sixteen or seventeen-year-old high schooler with their first love, running between grades and classes during every break, the two youngsters seizing every moment to be clingy with each other.
This morning, they were filming the twenty-first scene, which consisted entirely of scenes between Chu Xi and the supporting cast.
The protagonist she played, Meng Wenzhao, took the little junior sister Guihai Yue, played by Zhuang Yuge, to a famous brothel in the story to visit its owner.
The owner appeared debauched and flamboyant on the surface, but was actually a deeply hidden master with extraordinary skills, played by the well-known senior actress Wen Huixiang.
Wen Huixiang's image was mature and charming, and her personality was a perfect match for the character in the show.
Filming hadn't started yet. A few staff members from the sound crew were gathered around telling jokes. Wen Huixiang walked past them with a vacant look in her eyes, staring blankly into the distance.
This was the state most actors were in while waiting.
The sound crew finished their joke and burst out laughing.
Wen Huixiang remained as if in a daze, her expression unchanged, her blank posture unmoved.
A few minutes later, after the sound crew had gone back to adjust their equipment, Wen Huixiang blinked and suddenly burst into laughter, clutching her stomach.
"Ahahahahaha... hahahaha..."
A moment later, she switched to covering her mouth, still shaking with laughter.
Chu Xi heard her muttering to herself, laughing too hard to speak clearly-
"Sucked away... by a magnet... hahahahaha..."
Chu Xi glanced at her silently. "..."
Wasn't that the joke they told five minutes ago? Someone went up a mountain to practice the "iron head" technique, and when he came down after finishing, he was sucked away by a magnet.
She saw that Wen Huixiang's IQ was 104, not even as low as Yan Kun's. How could her reaction time be so slow?
Anyone who didn't know better would think she came to the set drunk. How bizarre.
What was even more bizarre was that Chu Xi's silent criticism was confirmed in the blink of an eye when she was chatting with Jin Yuan.
Jin Yuan's explanation informed her that Wen Huixiang was known in the industry as "Tipsy Sister," because no matter what she was doing, she always seemed like she'd had a couple of shots of baijiu. What Chu Xi was seeing was her normal state.
But in reality, she was a professional actress and hadn't had a drink before coming to film.
Don't be fooled by Tipsy Sister being unable to remember her lines right now. As soon as the camera started rolling, her award-winning skills would take over, and she'd be like a completely different person.
Chu Xi listened and nodded. "Alright then."
Quite the character.
All she needed to know was that when she worked with Wen Huixiang later, the other actress wouldn't hold up progress with NGs.
The cameras were ready. Chu Xi, Zhuang Yuge, Wen Huixiang, and some extras moving about in the background began to perform the scene where Meng Wenzhao visits the brothel owner to discuss a partnership.
Ren Zhi came out of her dressing room and sat outside the camera's range, watching the scene being filmed.
Xiao Mei followed beside her and said considerately, "Sister Zhi, the wind is really strong today. You should probably wait in the dressing room. I'll call you when it's almost your turn."
Ren Zhi waved her hand. "No need, Xiao Mei. Just get my jacket for me."
Ren Zhi draped the jacket over her shoulders and continued to watch, smiling from time to time.
Xiao Mei observed her for a while, then scratched her head, confused.
"Sister Zhi, what are you watching?"
"Oh, I'm studying everyone's performances."
