It seemed like Zhang Chao was busy on his end. After quickly hearing out the situation, he promptly hung up the phone.
With nothing else to do, Xia Xin decided to pack up and head back to the hotel for some rest. Shortly after, her phone rang again. It was Zhang Chao.
“Xia Xin, I can’t get a hold of MO Shu, and I’m tied up with something at the moment. Could you please go find him for me?” Zhang Chao asked.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtXia Xin was bored anyway, so helping out wasn’t a big deal for her. She asked, “Sure, where is he?”
Zhang Chao replied, “I’ve sent you his location. He should be swimming at the pool. I’ll also send you a QR code for entry. However, he’s in a private area, so if the staff at the swimming pool stop you, just say you’re his girlfriend.”
Just after saying that, Xia Xin received the location of the swimming pool along with the QR code. She immediately hailed a cab and set off to find MO Shu.
The swimming pool MO Shu was at wasn’t far from the set, but it was well-hidden. It was also a high-end private club, providing a lot of privacy, and the risk of overly enthusiastic fans infiltrating was minimal.
Xia Xin entered by scanning the QR code, but the staff still routinely asked who she was looking for and why she was there. Following Zhang Chao’s instructions and telling them she was MO Shu’s girlfriend, she was led to the pool.
MO Shu was swimming alone in the entire area. Xia Xin stood by the poolside and waited for him.
Xia Xin couldn’t help but admire MO Shu’s impressive physique. As he swam, his muscles flexed beautifully, and even when he came up for air, there was something incredibly alluring about him. Xia Xin thought that if MO Shu’s fans were here, they would be screaming with delight.
After waiting for a while, it became evident that MO Shu was too engrossed in his swimming to notice her. Concerned that the director might be getting impatient, she waved her arms at the poolside, trying hard to get his attention.
Finally noticing Xia Xin, MO Shu swam to the edge, a puzzled look on his face. “What brings you here?” he asked.
Xia Xin quickly briefed MO Shu on the situation and said, “You should hurry up and go; it’s been an hour since the director called me. If you’re late, you might miss this opportunity.”
MO Shu nodded, hoisted himself up, and leaped out of the pool. He walked over to the resting area to check his phone, leaving a trail of water behind him.
Looking at the water all over the floor, Xia Xin felt goosebumps erupt on her skin. She quickly followed MO Shu, wanting to move away from the water. Suddenly her vision blurred, and she slipped on a puddle, losing her balance and tumbling into the pool.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs Xia Xin hit the water, she snapped back to her senses just long enough to yell, “Help, I can’t swim!”
And with that, Xia Xin plunged into the water.
In a panic, Xia Xin flailed about underwater. She had always been afraid of water and usually avoided it at all costs. She hadn’t expected the system’s side effects to kick in at such a moment, making her momentarily dizzy before she lost her footing and fell into the pool.
‘I’m doomed.’ Xia Xin thought as she began to sink.
Just as Xia Xin had inhaled a few gulps of water, a pair of strong hands gripped her waist, and another hand supported her neck, pulling her to the surface.
Xia Xin finally came out of the water and panted heavily. Although her instinctive reaction made her want to struggle, her consciousness told her that MO Shu was saving her. If she struggled too much, it would only cause both of them to drown.
Therefore, Xia Xin restrained her urge to struggle and tried her best to remain calm. Finally, Xia Xin was rescued ashore by MO Shu. Able to breathe, Xia Xin was still shaken and blurted out, “Thank you.”
MO Shu looked at her, puzzled, and said, “If you’re so afraid of water, why did you agree to come here? You should have sent Li Xiang instead.”
Catching her breath, Xia Xin helplessly said, “Li Xiang was called away by the assistant director, and I couldn’t get a hold of her. This is a big production, and if you were to participate, it would definitely help your career. I couldn’t just stand by and do nothing.”
Seeing Xia Xin in her disheveled state, a warm feeling washed over Mo Shu. He couldn’t help and thought, ‘What a silly gir!.:
