“They’d be too scared to come with Xuan Yuan around. How are we supposed to apprehend them?” Shen Xi furrowed her brows. All she wanted was to arrest the person by whatever means.
“They won’t reemerge anytime soon. If the mastermind isn’t a fool, they should know it’s a waste of time regardless of how many assassins are sent.” Li Yuan held her tightly. “I believe you have to get up early to go to the set tomorrow. Get an early rest. Don’t overthink it. What good am I if I let you deal with everything?”
“Pillow.” Shen Xi broke into a smile and put a peck on his lips before swiftly burying her head into his arms. She repeated, “You’re my pillow.”
She should leave the matter to him since he said so while she remained on alert here.
Laughing out in delight, Li Yuan murmured, “Bed warmer.”
Shen Xi crooned as she snuggled up in his embrace. In fact, she proudly mumbled, “I’m a bed warmer.”
Laughter took Li Yuan by storm as he split his sides. He lowered his head to kiss the top of her head and gleefully uttered, “Goodnight, Bed Warmer.”
“Nighty night, Pillow.” Shen Xi clung to him and happily closed her eyes.
It was a good night’s sleep.
Before the break of dawn.
Li Yuan got breakfast ready and put it into an insulated container before tiptoeing into the bedroom. Gazing at the girl who was fast asleep, he drew close and kneeled to call her yet did not have the heart to wake her. In the end, he gently leaned forward to plant a kiss on her forehead. He whispered, “Good morning.”
With an important matter to be addressed back in the capital, Li Yuan was unable to wait until she was awake or accompany her for breakfast.
To his surprise, he was just about to be on his feet when the girl suddenly opened her bright and big eyes that showed no signs of drowsiness from waking up. Her delicate hand hooked him by the neck as she approached for a peck on the lips. “Good morning.”
“When did you wake up?” Li Yuan’s eyes reflected joy and love.
“The second you came in.” Shen Xi leaned forward for another brush of the lips before getting up. “Give me a minute, Brother. I’ll send you to the airport.”
Li Yuan said, “Go back to sleep. You don’t have to see me off.”
“No, I want to go to the airport.” Refusing to take no as an answer, Shen Xi picked out an outfit from the closet and began to undress.
With his eyes dilating, Li Yuan watched as the girl unbuttoned her pajamas and revealed her butterfly-shaped back. He closed his eyes and moved away from the bedroom.
Li Yuan had just left the bedroom when the girl’s alluring voice was heard. “Brother, can you fasten the hook on my back?”
Feeling a flush in his cheeks, Li Yuan was unable to stop the same flush to his core. As a surging flame flickered in his eyes, he cleared his throat. “Do it yourself.”
Shen Xi aggrievedly moaned, “I can’t do it.”
Li Yuan cleared his throat. Having full knowledge that she was doing it on purpose, he clenched his teeth. “Don’t wear it then.”
Shen Xi pouted. “They’d sag if I don’t wear it. You won’t like low-hanging fruits.”

Li Yuan could die there and then. He lifted his head and glanced at the bedroom door. “…”
Shen Xi continued the teasing. “Brother, aren’t you going to say anything?”
Having been pushed to the limit, Li Yuan could barely make out a word. “I like them.”
Shen Xi let out a winning chuckle and was soon out fully clothed.
Waiting at the door, Li Yuan pretended to casually ask as she came out. “Did you put it on?”
Amid stifled laughter, Shen Xi pounced into his arms at the sight of his blushing ears. She blew into his ear. “Want to take a guess?”
Li Yuan’s breathing turned heavy and his voice, raspy. “Quit it.”
“Why don’t you…” Shen Xi drawled out as she nibbled on his earlobe. “Feel it?”
With an urge overtaking his every being, Li Yuan gnashed his teeth. “I’ll get back at you later, you naughty girl!”
“When?” Shen Xi blinked her innocent eyes, looking rather like an angel.
Li Yuan replied, “After we register our marriage.”
Shen Xi made a face at him. “You fossil!”
The snow was still falling outside the window.
The pair enjoyed breakfast and went out together.
Suited up in sunglasses and a mask like a celebrity, Shen Xi did not want to be recognized when she was on set later.
Li Yuan’s flight was at six o’clock in the morning. He really did not want her to see him off at the airport so early in the morning. It was still dark when they were out the door.
After sending Li Yuan off, Shen Xi headed straight to the set. By the time she got there, the cast members were already present and accounted for. Many of them had their makeup ready too.
Ruan Sisi was supervising the staff workers while they transported the outfits into the dressing room. These were costumes for the cast of the TV series in the next two episodes. It did not take long before Shen Xi emerged. Ruan Sisi excitedly approached her with open arms to hug her. “Teacher.”
Shen Xi went around her and talked shop. “Are the cast all here?”
Ruan Sisi was disappointed but recovered in no time. Work was a priority. “They’re here. Mr. Hu said the fitting can be arranged according to our schedule.”
Her teacher and her teacher’s teacher were probably the only ones to receive such authority and treatment on set. Any wardrobe stylist, other than the famous, would have to dance to the tune of the production crew.
Nevertheless, the outfits were not just designed for the production team but also aimed to expand Jin Yu to a bigger market. To grow Jin Yu’s target audience from an upscale market to the medium and low range, the company needed to be more widely publicized.
Screenwriter Cloud Seven’s latest TV series was sure to make a hit. The mix-and-match of clothes worn by the actors in the show would also start a new fashion trend.
The cast and many non-key production crew members had only gotten the news a few days ago that Ms. Cai Ni would oversee the costumes. From that day onward, they began to ask around if Ms. Cai Ni would be coming to the set in person.
Yesterday, Lin Chan mentioned that she ran into Ms. Cai Ni in the hotel. The latter was living in the presidential suite on their floor. With word going around the set, Mr. Hu then confirmed that Ms. Cai Ni was coming today.
The cast had been eagerly waiting to meet Ms. Cai Ni. Everyone in the entertainment business wanted to be on friendly terms with Ms. Cai Ni for a chance to have her create looks for them.
At the same time, they were impressed with the investor’s assertiveness and prowess. Ms. Cai Ni’s looks and Mr. Cloud Seven’s script together made the best combo in showbiz. It would be so wrong if the TV show did not become a hit.
Everybody surrounded Shen Xi the moment she emerged on set.
Lin Chan was the first to say hello since she had been in the business the longest after all. Moreover, Lin Chan was more of a familiar face as she met Ms. Cai Ni once before.
The others greeted and introduced themselves to Ms. Cai Ni one by one. They did not forget to ask for autographs and pictures together.
Carrying an aloof air, Shen Xi barely spoke, she did not turn down any request for autographs and pictures.
After getting her makeup done, Su Ruowan walked out to people fussing about Shen Xi.. With bitterness weighing her down, a ruthlessness flashed in her eyes.
