Chapter 669: You Are Going to Be My Leading Lady
"No worries. I was just wondering why you were asking me all these questions out of nowhere. You don’t have to beat around the bush. I’m fine," Lu Xingzhi smiled brightly at him. "Thank you! I know you mean well.""You really should take a few more days to rest at home. There’s no rush for the shoot," Helian Yi knew he wasn’t in a position to say much.
But he was genuinely worried when he heard she had been kidnapped.
From the moment he knew until he saw her, he couldn’t stop thinking about it.
He didn’t even sleep well.
"Did you think I was hurt? I wasn’t. At most, I just got slapped twice. And it was a woman who did it, not even as hard as when you slapped me back then!" Lu Xingzhi chuckled, thinking she must really have a carefree heart!
On a more positive note, it shows her resilience; during those few days, she didn’t have a breakdown.
Mentally, she was unharmed.
"I’m sorry, back then, I didn’t mean to hit you. I really didn’t intend to hit Xiao Xi either. I’m truly sorry," Helian Yi felt uncomfortable every time he remembered accidentally slapping Lu Xingzhi.
He felt uneasy seeing her smooth little face swell up bright red.
"I’m telling you this not to make you feel guilty. If I insisted nothing happened, no one would believe me. So, I’m telling you I was slapped twice, but truly, nothing more than that."
If not for that reason, Lu Xingzhi wouldn’t even mention it.
She didn’t want others to worry about her; since she was safe now, there was no need to add to their troubles.
"Please don’t tell Xixi. She doesn’t know. Don’t tell anyone, just let it die there!" Lu Xingzhi could imagine what would happen if Helian Xi found out.
"I won’t tell," Helian Yi wasn’t that foolish. "You don’t have any other issues, right?"
"You mean like mental trauma, after-effects, that sort of stuff? Maybe I’m just a bit indifferent by nature, even to myself. So, none of those issues have ever surfaced. Even though I was confined, I didn’t even develop claustrophobia."
Regarding this point, Lu Xingzhi also admired herself.
At most, she just disliked dark places and enclosed spaces, where it’s not airy and stuffy, which made her feel annoyed.
But fear was definitely not an issue.
"That’s good," Helian Yi suddenly asked, "Little Zhi Liao, we’re friends, aren’t we?"
"Of course."
"That’s good. We’re friends, so in the future, you can talk to me if you have anything," Helian Yi said this without looking at Lu Xingzhi.
So Lu Xingzhi didn’t see the anticipation in his eyes.
Nor did she know that his ears had actually turned red.
"Sure!" Lu Xingzhi agreed readily, but she didn’t think there would be anything.
"I heard you took up the LT mobile endorsement, right?" Helian Yi directly changed the topic.
Having moved past that topic, knowing she was okay, he was relieved.
"Yes!"
"So you’re the girl I’m shooting the ad with," Helian Yi genuinely smiled.
Originally, when this ad opportunity came to him, he wasn’t really interested.
Maybe he really wasn’t short of money!
He didn’t want to do many variety shows or take many endorsements either.
It was Tang Shicheng who told him that Lu Xingzhi had also accepted this ad shoot, they picked one male and one female.
After hearing that, Helian Yi agreed.
"Huh? You took it too?"
