Chapter 568: Swallowing Your Own Tongue
Li Beinian responded matter-of-factly, “Of course. Being an actress has always been my dream. One day, I will scale the international stage.”
“Hollywood?”
“No, even better!” Li Beinian smiled, the determination in her eyes flickering like a bright candle. “I want to achieve everything that I couldn’t before.”
Everything that she couldn’t attain in her previous life, she was determined to attain in this life.
It was not only her dream, but also an inexplicable obsession.
In her previous life, Li Xueqing and her family got in the way so that she couldn’t enter the entertainment industry.
They repeatedly told her: She couldn’t make it.
“Nian Nian, we’re doing this for your own good.”
“Someone like you who isn’t from a professional school should be lucky enough to be a stunt double for Xueqing. Look at how lucky you are compared to the others.”
“Nian Nian, Xueqing needs a stunt double for this film as well. Help her out, we’ll pay you a hundred thousand this time.”
“You can’t do it. You can only be Xueqing’s stunt double.”
Li Beinian looked down and laughed at herself. “I want to prove to some people too, that not only can I act, I’m better than many others.”
Mu Xichen smiled as he listened to these words and stroked her head affectionately. “Uh huh.”
Li Beinian smiled radiantly at his quiet response. She hugged his waist and said, “I’ll cook for you today. What would you like to eat?”
“You’re cooking?” Mu Xichen raised his eyebrow.
Hearing this, Li Beinian stuck out her chest and pretended to be angry. “Why, are you looking down on me? My culinary skills are better than yours!”
Ever since they frist met, Li Beinian had only cooked for Mu Xichen once.
It was just a casual home-cooked meal. So it appeared he didn’t know how good she was.
The thought of this motivated Li Beinian even more. She said, “Just you wait, I’ll make you want to swallow your tongue.”
Mu Xichen smiled and lowered his head. “I don’t mind swallowing a tongue.”
She turned red at his suggestive remark and snapped, “Shameless. I’m going to get changed.”
But the man wouldn’t let her go. Tightening his grip on her hand, he said, “Here, let me swallow one.”
Li Beinian looked up and was about to say something, but her lips were firmly sealed.
After swallowing each other’s tongue, the couple got changed and went to the supermarket.
Since she didn’t have any jobs lined up in the next few days, Li Beinian decided to stay in Tai Chen Prefecture.
She bought a number of items like yogurt, bread, and fruits.
This was a supermarket in Tai Chen Prefecture. Most of the people who came here to buy things were residents of the Prefecture.
Li Beinian was wearing a dark grey hat and a roomy black outfit with a large casual jacket. She was at ease as she strolled around the supermarket, with no worries of being recognized.
After buying a bunch of things, Mu Xichen quietly took two boxes of condoms from the counter while paying the bill.
When she noticed this, she elbowed him.
The man did not react at all, as though he had done nothing.
The young lady at the cashier, however, stole a few glances at them.
After all, although Li Beinian’s face could not be seen clearly, she had an aura that set her apart from the others.
She was exceptionally tall and her skin was especially fair. Her long hair was held down by her hat and fell around her shoulders. There was a sense of pureness about her, and it didn’t take another look to be convinced that this was a real beauty.
The man beside her was equally hard to ignore.
However, it wasn’t just his appearance that caught people’s attention, but also his extraordinary aura.
