Just Blame Me For Being Blind in the Beginning

18

Dont go to work either. Ill raise you.

When Ren Shanshan saw the text that Pei Ying sent, her brow twitched.

Sending such a message this late at night Was Pei Ying bragging about having a man or laughing at her for having difficulties sleeping alone?

Ah ah.

[Ren Shanshan] Pei Yings only been dating a few days, but shes already flaunting that shes got a man? (smile)

[Pei Ying] Im not flaunting anything! It was obviously a complaint!

[Ren Shansha] Complaint? You sure you werent telling me about how big and healthy your guy is?

[Pei Ying]

No matter what she said, Ren Shanshan could make it perverted. Pei Ying decided to stop communicating with her.

After Song Nanchuan finished his shower, he saw her sleeping on the sofa. As he dried his hair with a towel, he walked over to her. Why are you lying here? You should shower too, and then go to sleep.

Oh Pei Ying answered and obediently went upstairs to take a shower. But when she came out from the bathroom and saw Song Nanchuan waiting for her in bed, she couldnt help being shaken.

Shed been sleeping alone for all these years, so it was a bit difficult to get used to a man sleeping beside her. Last night, shed just been very tired. When she closed her eyes, she fell asleep. Tonight though, she was very much awake How was she going to sleep?!

She stood at the bathroom door for awhile before asking Song Nanchuan, There should be other bedrooms here, right?

Song Nanchuans brow jumped. You want to go to another room?

Mm

She stood there mumbling, and Song Nanchuan chuckled, as if seeing through her completely. He pat the spot beside him. Sleep here. Youll get used to it after a few more times.

Pei Ying,

How could he say that so calmly?!

In the end, she walked over and laid down in bed. Then she pulled the covers up to her eyes.

Song Nanchuans lips curved up. He turned out the lights and then went to sleep as well.

Although Pei Ying didnt turn to look at Song Nanchuan, she couldnt ignore his breathing. Even with her eyes tightly closed, she was very much aware of the existence of a man right next to her.

She tried her hardest, but in the end, she was still very tense and didnt feel like sleeping at all.

CEO Song? She said.

Youre still calling me CEO Song? Song Nanchuans voice sounded very displeased.

Pei Ying was silent for two seconds, and then she said, Chuan Chuan.

Song Nanchuan,

Forget it, it was still better than CEO Song. As long as she liked it.

What is it? he asked.

Are you asleep yet?

No.

Me neither. Pei Ying finally opened her eyes and turned her head in Song Nanchuans direction. About last night, did you plan it in advance?

Song Nanchuan responded earnestly, Of course not. What happened yesterday was simply emotion and passion taking its course.

Oh Pei Ying responded. Then why did you have condoms at home? Do you always have that kind of thing ready?

Song Nanchuan,

Why was Pei Ying so clever now?

When he didnt answer, Pei Ying pressed her lips together. So it really was planned in advance.

Song Nanchuan wrapped his arm around her waist and kissed her cheek. Its getting late. Hurry and sleep.

Such a clumsy way of changing the subject made Pei Ying laugh. Alright, goodnight.

Goodnight. Song Nanchuan kissed her once more, and he didnt let go of the her hand all night long.

When he woke up this time, Pei Ying was still sleeping soundly at his side. Song Nanchuan was quite satisfied. He watched her awhile and couldnt help kissing her on the cheek.

Oh And then Pei Ying woke up. Seeing Song Nanchuan beside her, she was taken aback at first. Then a bit shyly, she said, Good morning.

Good morning. Song Nanchuan hugged her and rested his head on her shoulder. He closed his eyes again.

The sun passed through the white curtains over the window and landed on his body. When she saw the mole beneath his eye, Pei Ying started to get fidgety. (Note: I sort of overlooked this, but theres a term for moles / beauty marks under and around the eye, which is something like a tear mole. Having a tear mole supposedly signifies that you will have a lonely or hard life.)

Youre not getting up? Dont you have to go to work today?

Im not going, he responded lazily.

Pei Ying looked at him and then faintly said, But I still have to go to work.

Song Nanchuans brow twitched. Dont go to work either. Ill raise you.

Pei Ying couldnt help smiling. How can you support me if you dont go to work? And in any case, we havent finished filming my advertisement.

Song Nanchuan was quiet for a moment. Finally, he opened his eyes and turned to look at her. What do you want for breakfast?

Anythings fine.

Song Nanchuan pushed away the blanket and sat up. He touched her hair and then said, Ill have someone send some breakfast over. You should sleep a little more.

Okay.

With Pei Ying acting so lovely, Song Nanchuans heart couldnt help itching. He bent over and gave her long and soft morning kiss. Then he walked out of the bedroom.

Pei Ying didnt feel like sleeping anymore so she got up to wash her face. After she changed her clothes, Chen Sheng gave her a call.

GM Chen, is something the matter? Pei Ying answered.

Chen Sheng responded, Xiao Pei ah, its like this. I didnt find any roles that suited you, but I found a song that I think fits you quite well. I wonder if youre interested?

Song?

Mm. If you think about it, you technically started out as a singer, but after so many years, youve only released the one single. You can try singing again. Chen Sheng explained, The song isnt bad. And I got Producer Qiao Yichen to work on it for you too!

With the mention of Qiao Yichen, her heart thumped.

This famous, golden record producer had worked with her once previously, three years ago.

At the time, shed just debuted with the girl group, Cute. Chen Sheng spent great efforts to recruit Qiao Yichen to produce their single. And what followed was two 20 year old girls being scolded by Producer Qiao Yichen to such an extent that they started to question the meaning of their lives.

The other member of the group cried during the recording and said that shed rather die than record with the producer. Meanwhile, Qiao Yichen had this look of I dont really care, I just want to finish and go the whole time. Things eventually blew over.

They ended up changing producers, but Qiao Yichen still left a very deep impression on Pei Ying.

For some reason, she felt compelled to search up the producers information back then. And she was completely shocked by his shining resume. While she was looking up his works, she also came across his Weibo. And again, for some reason, she secretly followed his blog.

At the time, there wasnt a lot of activity on it. He had fewer fans than she now had and he didnt post often. He would just promote his new work every so often or post some music videos.

The violin tune of Girl in the Sea that Pei Ying used for her ringtone was something shed discovered on his blog as well.

The first time she heard the song, she was stunned by it. Although there was no making up for the (mental) scars Qiao Yichen left on her after their recording session, she still had to acknowledge his musical talent.

After she got to understand Qiao Yichen more, she came to realize that he was right to scold them in the recording studio. They really did sing too poorly. If she had the chance to record with Qiao Yichen once more, shed definitely sing better.

Whod have thought that the chance would come so suddenly?

She was quiet for awhile, so Chen Sheng asked, What is it? You dont want to sing?

Thats not it. Pei Ying held her phone and settled down. I want to sing.

He was just Qiao Yichen after all, right? Why not! She didnt believe that shed sing so poorly that hed scold her like a dog again!
