Chapter 47: Jealous

"Because his foot is injured now. You've seen it. I'm not at ease leaving him to live alone." Xiang Yutang looked at Zhuo Ziyu pitifully.

Zhuo Ziyu said, "He still has an assistant by his side. And if he wants, there are many people who can take care of him. You're already so tired. Don't put more pressure on yourself."

Xiang Yutang muttered, "Okay, I admit it. I was just touched when I saw him rushing towards me."

Zhuo Ziyu knew it would be like this. She advised her earnestly, "Baby, I know you're easily touched. But this is not the right time. Be obedient, okay?"

"But I've already told him." Xiang Yutang stole a glance at her. She was also very afraid that Zhuo Ziyu would get angry.

Zhuo Ziyu was choked for a moment. This naughty girl actually told him directly. What should she do now!

"Don't be angry. I promise nothing will happen between us, okay?" Xiang Yutang raised three fingers.

Zhuo Ziyu pinched her face. "All right, but you must protect yourself. No getting too intimate. Do you understand? If you do, I'll tell your father about this right away!"

"Come on, it won't happen! I'll just take care of him for a while. I'll come back when this period is over." Xiang Yutang put her arms around Zhuo Ziyu.

Zhuo Ziyu gently patted her back, feeling a mixture of joy and worry. When she saw Zhu Zhengchu running towards Xiang Yutang just now, she was also quite touched. But she was still worried about Xiang Yutang's future with him.

"Remember, don't get too intimate." Zhuo Ziyu pinched her face.

Xiang Yutang nodded. "Got it!"

Zhu Zhengchu helped Xiang Yutang get everything ready. She didn't need to bring much. After soothing Zhuo Ziyu, she left.

Actually, Zhu Zhengchu wasn't in much pain, but he wanted to be more affectionate with Xiang Yutang, so he pretended to be in great pain.

Xiang Yutang walked up to him. "You didn't move around just now, did you?"

"No, but it just hurts."

"Of course it hurts. How could it not hurt when such a big cut was made by the glass?"

Zhu Zhengchu held her hand. Compared with his, Xiang Yutang's hand was incredibly small. He put it to his lips and kissed it.

"Now it doesn't hurt."

Xiang Yutang was already used to such actions and didn't blush.

"Did you call your parents to report your safety?"

"Yeah, I did. What about you?"

"Of course I did. If I hadn't stopped him just now, my dad would have come by helicopter." Just now, Xiang Zhengyun couldn't reach her on the phone and was almost crazy with worry.

Zhu Zhengchu couldn't help laughing at the thought of that scene. "Your dad loves you so much."

"Sometimes he loves me, and sometimes he likes to bully me. We were supposed to start re - recording today, but now it has to be postponed again."

Zhu Zhengchu showed her the notice from the program crew. "Don't worry. We weren't affected much here. No one was injured. It'll be postponed for at most one day."

Xiang Yutang glanced at his foot. "Aren't you a person? Aren't you injured?"

Zhu Zhengchu smiled. "Such a minor injury won't affect the recording."

"No way. You should take more rest for a few days. Otherwise, when we record, shall I push a wheelchair to take you there?"

Zhu Zhengchu pinched her little face. "I really wonder what's in your little head." Pushing a wheelchair onto the show. This little girl really had some strange ideas.

Xiang Yutang rubbed her face. "Then what do you want? You'd better not get out of bed if you can."

"It's okay. We'll mainly be sitting during the recording tomorrow. It won't have much of an impact."

Xiang Yutang got closer to him. "Hey, what rules will we use to decide who teams up with whom tomorrow?"

Zhu Zhengchu looked at her playfully. "If I tell you, I'll be leaking the rules."

Xiang Yutang said, "Tell me. I need to prepare." Although she knew that being the first - place finisher would give her an advantage, Xiang Yutang was still a bit worried.

Zhu Zhengchu tapped his handsome face. "If you kiss me, maybe I'll tell you."

Xiang Yutang gave him an annoyed look and then kissed him. "Hurry up and tell me."

"Okay. You don't need to prepare anything tomorrow. The rule is very simple. Each person goes to the room of the mentor they want to team up with, and the mentor decides whether to choose that member or not."

Xiang Yutang said, "Ah? Isn't that cruel? What if someone is rejected by all the mentors at the same time? That would be so embarrassing."

Zhu Zhengchu shrugged. "There's nothing we can do about that. This is a talent show. Sometimes it's just that cruel."

"What if no one chooses someone?"

"That depends on the arrangement of the program crew. Anyway, I'll only accept the students I need." Zhu Zhengchu had basically decided which students he wanted.

Xiang Yutang pinched his nose. "I'll rush into your room first tomorrow. You have to choose me first too!"

Zhu Zhengchu shook his head. "Don't go into my room first tomorrow. Go to the doors of the other mentors first, pretend to be thinking at the door. Wait until the others have all gone. Then come here. Anyway, I'll definitely reserve a spot for you."

Xiang Yutang asked curiously, "Why?"

Zhu Zhengchu explained to her, "First of all, it'll let you get more camera time. Second, if you just run straight to me, our little secret will be discovered."

"I saw that many people on the Internet have already discovered it. It doesn't seem to have any impact."

Zhu Zhengchu said leisurely, "Little girl, you don't understand. They're just speculating. Speculation is different from confirmation."

"What if I'm pulled into the room by other mentors when I'm at their doors?" Xiang Yutang also looked at him playfully.

Zhu Zhengchu thought for a while. "Then I'll go and snatch you back."

"How will you snatch me back? Aren't you afraid of exposing your identity then?"

"Not afraid."

"By the way, there will be an extra guest tomorrow."

Xiang Yutang asked curiously, "Who? Who?"

"Seems to be a newly - debuted newcomer. He's really popular recently because of a TV drama. His name is Ying Zikui." Zhu Zhengchu didn't take it seriously. He just needed to go through the motions tomorrow.

Unexpectedly, after hearing this name, Xiang Yutang sat up cheerfully. "Zikui is coming! Has his TV drama been broadcast? Oh, I forgot to watch it. No wonder he said he'd give me a surprise a few days ago."

Seeing Xiang Yutang so happy, Zhu Zhengchu felt a bit jealous. "Who is he? Do you know each other?"

"Yeah, we've been friends since childhood. He used to be abroad. Suddenly he came back to China to film a TV drama. He's in some remote place and I couldn't find him. I didn't expect this guy to pop up quietly."

Zhu Zhengchu said sourly, "Oh."
