Chapter 4 She Hasn’t Seen Him for 52 Days (2)_1
Such a voice made her mysteriously lonely. So, after she returned to her bedroom, she deliberately turned on the TV and raised the volume a little higher.
She didn't aim to watch the TV, but rather to fill the home with some vitality, so she didn't particularly care which channel was chosen.
As she listened to the cliché lines occasionally emanating from the TV, Xia Wan'an did forty minutes of pre-bed yoga and then went to take a shower.
When she reappeared half an hour later, she wrapped her wet hair with a towel and started to apply skincare products in front of the vanity mirror. As she lost count of the skincare steps she was applying, she heard a familiar name from the TV.
"The General Manager of Han Enterprises, Mr. Han Jingnian, has accepted our interview..."
The movements of Xia Wan'an's fingertips, gently pressing against her skin, abruptly ceased. She stared at herself in the mirror for a good few seconds before finally turning her attention to the TV.
Han Jingnian appeared on the screen, in a black suit and white shirt, graciously seated on a sofa, engaging in an amicable conversation with the host.
He was decidedly handsome – a man so attractive that even the term 'handsome' seemed mundane when used to describe him. No matter how long you looked at him, you'd never tire of his appearance. Instead, he grew even more appealing, irresistibly so.
Toward the end of the not-too-lengthy interview, the host casually, almost playfully, lobbed a juicy gossip question, "Mr. Han, there've been many reports about your frequent engagements with Miss Qin Shujian. If it's not too inconvenient for you, could you confirm whether you and Miss Qin are really on your way to 'good news,' as the rumors suggest?"
Qin Shujian... the leading lady of the biggest blockbuster film of the lunar new year...
Xia Wan'an, holding an eye cream with her fingers, slightly trembled, almost dropping the bottle.
