The Strong Beauty is a Goddess in Showbiz

Chapter 97: Useless Jin Si

Translator: CTCTRANS Editor: CTCTRANS

Jin Si was clearly intent on pushing his luck.

When he heard Qi Wu’s answer, the corners of his mouth curled up into a happy smile.

“If you want to, then so be it.”

“…Alright, I want to.”

Qi Wu repeated.

That was because Jin Si’s palm was very warm. It drove away the chill in her hand. It felt like the sun in winter, the flames of the fireplace, and the searing burn of intense sincerity.

It was difficult for her to feel desire.

However, she probably couldn’t bear to leave this warmth, so she wanted to hold his hand.

That was what Qi Wu thought.

Jin Si was in an unprecedentedly good mood. He held the girl’s delicate and soft hand tightly until he transmitted the warmth of his palm to her. Hidden within his lofty and nonchalant voice was a hint of playfulness. “Very well. I’ll deign to warm your hand for you.”

After walking for some time, Jin Si suddenly sensed people staring at them. Then, he heard a sound. His eyes turned cold, and he pulled Qi Wu onto another path.

A minute later, two children, a boy and a girl, appeared at the spot where Jin Si and Qi Wu had been standing just now as an elderly butler followed them. Xi Huanran curiously looked around. “Strange. I saw Uncle just now!”

Her brother, Fu Cheng’an, looked at her in exasperation. “Are you itching for a beating? We were looking at a couple just now.”

Xi Huanran was upset that he was scolding her, so her cheeks puffed up angrily.

“It’s useless for you to glare at me. Why would he come to the park and bring a woman with him?”

Fu Cheng’an coldly refuted.

His cold rationality resembled Jin Si’s.

“What if he’s here with the pretty lady?” Xi Huanran asked, unwilling to give up.

“You mean your new friend? That is even more impossible. We all know what kind of person he is.”

“She must be an exception!”

Xi Huanran indignantly retorted.

She did not want an uncle who would die alone, so Qi Wu must be an angel who was here to save her uncle.

Everyone on the Internet said that she was an angel!

Fu Cheng’an looked at her in exasperation once more. He could not be bothered to speak anymore.

Just then, the butler kindly squatted down in front of the little girl and gently explained, “I know you’re worried about his love life, but it can’t be rushed.”

She could not just grab some random woman and claim that she would be her uncle’s wife.

The butler could not help but think that.

Xi Huanran looked up and solemnly asked, “Is it really okay?”

“If it’s not urgent, then why did Grandma go to the best temple in the country

to pray for him? Why does Grandpa always ask Daddy to help Uncle find a partner? Even Mommy keeps wanting to throw him into the fray with a bunch of women. ”

The butler did not know what to say.

When he thought of Xi Huanran’s mother who was such a forceful woman that she won her husband by forcing the issue, he realized that she might actually do what Xi Huanran said if not for the fact that she could not control her younger brother.

Therefore, even though Xi Huanran was still young, she was actually very aware of the people around her. She knew everything that she needed to know.

At the same time, Jin Si and Qi Wu looked at each other while standing behind a big tree a few feet away from the trio.

As they had not been speaking softly, Jin Si heard everything.

Qi Wu tugged at his fingers.

Jin Si lowered his eyes and quietly looked at her as if he was asking her what she wanted.

They were suddenly very close together as the tree was not that wide. Hence, Jin Si was actually standing right in front of Qi Wu.

She only needed to raise her head and she would be staring at his cold and sharp jaw.

Qi Wu did not say anything at first. She waited until Xi Huanran was persuaded by the butler and the other boy to leave.

After they left, Qi Wu slowly asked, “Do you know them?”

Jin Si looked away and walked out from behind the tree with Qi Wu.

He hesitated for a moment before quickly answering the question. “No. As Chang Xun said, I’m just a penniless young man.”

Qi Wu obediently nodded and did not express any doubt about Jin Si’s declaration. This made Jin Si ask, “Aren’t you curious?” “I’m not curious.” Qi Wu shook her head.

“True. There’s nothing else to say about it.” Jin Si smirked.

Although he was already very familiar with his fabricated backstory, he was unwilling to talk about it in front of Qi Wu.

That was because it was fake.

The walk lasted for more than an hour, but they were not impatient, especially Jin Si. He was quite patient as he accompanied Qi Wu all the way through the park.

This was impossible for him in the past.

He would only think that it was meaningless.

By the time they got home, it was already late. It was drizzling once more, and the night sky was covered by dark clouds. There were only a few stars visible in the night sky.

Qi Wu stood by the window of the living room, quietly watching the twinkling stars. Her eyes were blank with a strange glimmer flickering in them. Her gaze was unfathomable.

After a while, she looked away and saw Jin Si walking out of the kitchen with a cup of warm milk in his hand.

He handed over the warm milk, and she did not hesitate before accepting it.

The warmth of the milk in her hands caused a relaxed and gentle smile to spread across her face. “Jin Si, thank you for the walk.”

It was an indescribable feeling.

However, she did enjoy the walk.

Jin Si raised his eyebrows and lazily said, “Don’t watch TV for too long. Turn in early.”

“Alright.”

There was a warmth in her voice.

Her eyes turned to the television screen in the living room, which was playing the show with the pink pig. Her eyes lit up with joy.

Qi Wu finished her milk and went back to watching Pink Pig.

She watched for a while before receiving a call from Chang Xun.

He seemed to be very cautious. He first asked if Jin Si was beside her. After Qi Wu denied it, he suddenly heaved a sigh of relief.

“Did he do anything to you after he got angry this morning?”

Qi Wu shook her head. Just as Chang Xun was about to relax, Qi Wu said, “That’s because I pacified him.” Chang Xun’s eyes widened in shock.

Were his ears mistaken?

Pacify?

Why did it sound so strange when used in the same sentence as Jin Si’s name?

His voice trembled with disbelief. “H-How did you do that?”

Qi Wu honestly answered, “I made him cookies.”

“Huh?”

Was that it?

That was the only thing that Chang Xun could think of.

At that moment, he felt disdain for Jin Si. Useless! Why was he afraid of being angry for too long once other people had the advantage?
