Lin Anxin, whose face was wrinkled with pain, finally relaxed, sighed with relief, and said with a playful smile, âI know, Iâll try not to eat. Thanks, Enen.â
Chi Enen just found her seemingly carefree smile particularly glaring, bit her lower lip, and asked seriously, âYoung Master Si canât hear us from outside. You can tell me now, whatâs really going on with the injury on your face?â
Lin Anxin paused for a moment when she heard Si Chenâs name, then tugged at the corner of her mouth and said as if she wasnât hiding anything, âNothing much, just like I told you before. The actress I was acting with got too into the role, acted realistically during the physical scene, and it ended up like this.â
âAnxin!â Chi Enen said with a headache, âDo you think Iâd believe that? Even Baby Chi wouldnât believe your words! No matter how into the role the actress is, would she hit your face like this? With so many people on the set, have they all gone blind and not seen it? That she would hurt you like this? Do you personally think itâs possible?â
With Anxinâs current status, the drama crew would be cautious and protective of her.
Those actors in the entertainment circle, more or less, know the backstage she has; anyone with a sane mind wouldnât risk offending Si Chen by bullying her.
Not to mention injuries like scratches on the face.
So, Anxinâs lie was too false, even a three-year-old child wouldnât believe it.
Lin Anxin was shaken by her serious expression, her carefree smile gradually disappeared, she lowered her eyelids so you couldnât see the emotions in her eyes, and said, âSi Chenâs mom hired someone to beat me up.â
âSi Chenâs mom?â
Lin Anxin took a deep breath, looked up, and showed a carefree expression again, âSi Chenâs mom brought his blind date to the set and found me, and without saying anything, she attacked. You know me, if everyone was around my age, Iâd have fought back a long time ago. But too bad sheâs a generation older than me. If I hit back and she gets injured, it would be blamed on me. Tomorrow thereâd be rumors online about me hitting an elderly person, and Iâd be done. So I held back! Who knew that she, looking so genteel, would hit so hard.â
Her tone was light and she didnât forget to joke about her face, âHad I known Iâd be beaten up like this, Iâd have fought back! Such a loss! Too bad!â
She tried to play down the situation, but Chi Enen had already guessed how things went, knowing she must be feeling bad inside.
If it were someone else, with Anxin suffering such grievances, she would definitely step up.
But the other party was Si Chenâs mother, and this matter involved Anxin and Si Chenâs relationship, so she couldnât interfere, lest things get more complicated.
Chi Enen held her slightly cold hand and didnât speak.
Lin Anxin stiffened for a moment, then suddenly turned around and looked at her, suddenly asking, âHey, Enen, do you think I should break up with Si Chen?â
âYou want to break up with Young Master Si?â Chi Enen had foreseen the possibility from the moment she learned the truth, but she was still a bit surprised to hear her say it, and advised, âI think youâd better consider this carefully before making a decision.â
Lin Anxin shrugged her shoulders, âIâve thought about it. Actually, breaking up isnât a big deal. Iâm already on the A-list now, not short of money or scripts looking for me.â
