The Unexpected Rise Before My Exit from the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 154: The Long Night



Chapter 154

"My blood pressure is a little high," Qin Wei said. She took out her thermos from her bag, drank some water to calm herself down, moistened her throat, then lowered her voice and said indignantly:

"Why, why, why are you angry with me? You are so heartless! Do you know that because you ignore me, I lose sleep all night? Thinking about having to face someone as cold as you every day, my heart is bleeding, but do you care? You don't care, you only care about yourself, just like you don't care if there are egg tarts in the lion's head, you also don't care about me! And now you say I lied to you. So heartless, with such a cold tone. My heart hurts so much, while you, you just watch me like a bystander, do you understand? You don't understand!"

Fortunately, she often browses Douyin, so she can use the popular hysterical literature to defeat Qiao Sixiao this time!

Qiao Sixiao opened and closed her mouth, but didn't say anything in the end.

Silence is tonight's...

Tick tock...

Tick tock tick tock...

Tick tock tick tock tick tock...

Qin Wei and Qiao Sixiao turned around at the same time.

"Damn..."

Qin Wei forcibly held it back, but...

"Fuck..."

Qiao Sixiao said it out.

Qin Wei: "......"

...

It was pouring rain outside, light rain inside, ticking and tocking, right above the empty bed.

Auntie probably remembered the leaky roof and knocked on the door, coming in with a bucket.

Because auntie only had 3 bedrooms in use, and they were all occupied now. In order not to cause more trouble for others, both of them said it was fine and they could endure it.

Qin Wei put the bucket on the bed to collect water dripping from the ceiling, helplessly looking at Qiao Sixiao, while Qiao Sixiao couldn't help but laugh:

"Alright, no need to stand on ceremony. We won't be sleeping tonight."

...

It was still alright around 11 or 12 o'clock, as they read books separately without talking to each other. But after midnight, Qin Wei started to doze off, and Qiao Sixiao also looked very tired.

None of them had a good sleep these two days, they were just too exhausted.

Two drops of rainwater dripped onto her face, instantly waking Qin Wei up.

Damnit, the roof here was also kind of leaky.

The room was so small, there was nowhere to hide from the dripping.

Qin Wei got up and touched Sun Tiantian's forehead, good, her fever has gone down. She was sleeping soundly. Only then did Qin Wei feel assured to take out the umbrella from her bag.

She didn't expect to use the umbrella gifted by Mayor Zhou so soon.

Qin Wei opened the umbrella and sat next to Qiao Sixiao:

"Have you ever experienced such kind of life?"

Qiao Sixiao shook her head, but suddenly couldn't help laughing. She asked Qin Wei in a low voice:

"But you know, it doesn't work to open an umbrella indoor right?"

Qin Wei glanced at her, humphed coldly:

"I'm not short, I don't need to be any taller. Qiao Sixiao would you please shut up?"

Qiao Sixiao restrained her smile, maybe because it felt a bit cold at night. She moved closer against Qin Wei while wrapped in her coat, still feeling cold.

"Then sing me a song, I'm very sleepy now and need your singing to invigorate me."

Qin Wei looked back at Sun Tiantian, then said to Qiao Sixiao:

"Be more considerate, if you get invigorated so will she. Then neither of you would fall asleep, isn't it?"

Qiao Sixiao sighed:

"Then how does one get through such a long night... Otherwise tell me about your life in the past two years? What was it like to be idle all day?"

Qin Wei:

"Would you shut up? I'll sing for you okay?"

Qiao Sixiao specially asked to listen to "She Said". Qin Wei resolutely refused:

"I won't repetitively perform works I've presented before. I'll sing you something else."

Suddenly she recalled a song that could be sung softly. After preparing her emotions, she sang to Qiao Sixiao:

"Captivated by your eyes

The Milky Way has a traceable path

Going through the crevices of time

It still attracts me truly

My trajectory

This fleeting sight

The most intimate distance

Walking along the texture of your skin

Through the winding arms

Dreaming for you

Dreaming for you

..."

"Mercury Note" by Gao Ding. Upon first listen it was amazing, no matter how many times listened it was still amazing. Qin Wei sang it to her, because this song came to mind first.

After singing it all, feeling very satisfied with herself, she was just about to ask Qiao Sixiao for praises. But then realized Qiao Sixiao was already asleep leaning on her shoulder.

Breathing slowly and evenly, with slightly flushed cheeks.

Qin Wei raised her hand to touch her forehead, good, she was also having a fever.

No wonder she kept feeling cold and snuggled closer against her.

Qin Wei forcibly woke Qiao Sixiao up to let her take medicine.

"Qiao Sixiao you have a fever, quickly take medicine and get well soon."

Qin Wei looked very unhappy.

"Not only we can't sleep, I have to take care both of you too. Why am I not sick?"

Qiao Sixiao: "......"

"Why is your face even redder now Qiao Sixiao?"

"I also have slightly high blood pressure!"

【When I wrote this part I was listening to "Mercury Note", so let little Qin sing for everyone. The lyrics only add up to 65 words, I did not make up any numbers.】

...

Originally Qin Wei hoped that Qiao Sixiao could lie next to Sun Tiantian and squeeze through one night together. Although a bit crowded, it would still be more comfortable than sitting, and they could also be covered under the quilt instead of feeling so cold.

But Qiao Sixiao was very stubborn. No matter how many times Qin Wei persuaded her, she declined. She insisted on opening the umbrella while sitting at the table. As a result, she completely couldn't endure and fell asleep later at night.

So Qin Wei sat there stupidly holding up the umbrella indoor, also ensuring the one sleeping leaning on her shoulder wouldn't fall over.

Her steel-like will enabled her to persevere until the rain subsided and daylight came.

...

Sun Tiantian opened her eyes. She had such a wonderful sleep, ever since the competition started, she'd been having frequent dreams every night, causing her to never rest well.

She had even specially seen the doctor and was prescribed tranquilizers, but they didn't work. She didn't expect that after taking antipyretic medicine last night before bed, she actually slept without dreams until daylight.

It could be related to her weakened body and exhaustion from the entire day!

Sun Tiantian sat up, satisfied as she stretched lazily...

Then she froze for a moment.

"Qin...Qin Wei...what's going on with you two..."

...

Not only Sun Tiantian, but no one else had a good sleep last night either.

The 3 men from program crew had to squeeze together in one double bed in the same room last night. With 3 people crowding one double bed and not enough quilts to cover them all, plus it was also raining in their room.

The girls' situation was even worse. By daybreak, the bucket was almost half full of collected rainwater that dripped from the ceiling.

No one was in high spirits. Fortunately the road hasn't resumed access, so no one could go out anyway.

The intern had notified the director about the natural disaster last night already. After confirming their safety, the director could only tell them to stay put waiting to be rescued, that was all.

After listening to what happened last night from Qin Wei, Sun Tiantian couldn't even believe that so many things happened last night...

"So the two of you sat there the entire night?!"

While one was sleeping, the other two were going through life and death situations. Sun Tiantian felt the story plot was so magical.

"Yes..."

It was no joke to forcibly sit through the night. What's more neither of them moved at all. Now one shoulder felt stiff and hurt from just a little movement, while the other had wry neck directly.

"We'll...need to find a better hospital to do physiotherapy after going back..."

Sun Tiantian really didn't know what to say to comfort them, they were truly so pitiful...

But she also found it a bit touching somehow??
