Jing MO ignored Xia Xin, his thoughts still lingering on the fact that she was going to film a kissing scene, and the co-star for that was none other than MO Shu.

Xia Xin, oblivious to Jing Mo’s unusual demeanor, continued, “Luckily, I asked the director if we could use a body double. The director was puzzled and asked why we’d need one when we’re a real couple, which really startled me! I was worried our fake relationship would be exposed, but thankfully MO Shu said he was recently infected with Helicobacter pylori and needed to avoid close contact. That’s how the director let it go.”

Relieved, Jing MO picked up another piece of fish and continued eating.

After dinner, Xia Xin volunteered to wash the dishes. While she was in the kitchen, her phone on the dining table buzzed with a new text message.

Jing MO casually glanced at it, initially intending to give it to Xia Xin. However, the content caught his eye.

[Miss Xia, I have evidence of your two-timing. Pay me 500,000 yuan in two days, and I will destroy all the evidence. Otherwise, tomorrow’s front-page headline will be about your affair with Jing MO! ]

As the messages appeared one after another, Jing Mo’s expression darkened.

The media had captured images of him carrying Xia Xin in his arms as they left the set earlier today. He couldn’t help but wonder, ‘Who dared to blackmail Xia Xin?’

Jing MO considered asking for Xia Xin’s phone password to secretly delete the messages, but she had already returned from the kitchen and picked up her phone. Clearly, there was no way to hide it now.

Upon reading the messages, Xia Xin’s face turned as grim as Jing Mo’s. Setting aside that she didn’t have 500,000 yuan, even if she did, she couldn’t feel such unethical journalism.

Xia Xin clenched her phone and resolved to address this issue. Not wanting Jing MO to be implicated because of her, she prepared to tell him not to get involved. But before she could speak, Jing MO interrupted, “Don’t worry about this. I’ll handle it.”

“But—”

“Listen to me this time!” Jing MO emphasized.

Realizing Jing MO was more experienced in handling such matters, Xia Xin reluctantly remained silent. Yet, she was still anxious and pondered ways to resolve the issue.

Jing MO stayed up late in his study, thoughts drifting back to years ago. He had left abruptly back then because his presence was causing harm to Xia Xin. His lingering guilt towards her couldn’t be easily mended, no matter how well he treated her now.

Jing MO never thought that, after all these years, his actions could still harm her. He agreed to meet the reporter at a café the next afternoon, precisely when Xia Xin had filming commitments and couldn’t intervene.

Xia Xin hid outside the door and secretly heard their conversation. After grasping the time and place, she planned to go ahead the next day. She naturally guessed the purpose of Jing Mo’s arrangement, but Jing MO couldn’t stop her.

Xia Xin returned to her room and asked the director for a leave of absence. She would return to the crew tomorrow night to shoot the night scenes. Because

Xia Xin almost fell into the pool and had a major accident, the director didn’t say much this time and immediately agreed.

When Xia Xin called the director, MO Shu happened to have some plot that he didn’t understand and wanted to ask the director for advice. The director called Xia Xin in front of MO Shu. When the director hung up the phone, he couldn’t help but complain, “Nowadays, the female celebrities are getting weaker and weaker. If we delay the filming, we don’t know how many things will be delayed.”

After saying that, the director realized that MO Shu and Xia Xin were a couple and quickly tried to smooth things over. He said, “Of course, Xia Xin is already very dedicated to her work. It’s inevitable that she will fall sick.”

MO Shu smiled awkwardly and did not say anything. However, no matter what the director said, he was listless.

The director, being relatively unknown and without much clout in the entertainment industry, worried that he had offended MO Shu but was relieved when MO Shu remained polite throughout.

After the discussion, Mo Shu returned to his room and lay on his bed, staring at the ceiling.

For a moment, he felt a sense of loss, his thoughts drifting back to the afternoon when Jing Mo had carried Xia Xin away..
