Rebirth: I Am Not the Movie Queen This Time
Chapter 589 - 587: He’s Not Capable
CHAPTER 589: CHAPTER 587: HE’S NOT CAPABLE
Chen Ke glared at the two men: "Scram!"
The two men looked at each other, both convinced that Chen Ke was no good guy, wondering if they should rush over and grab Mai Qiqi back or if they should call the police.
As the two hesitated, Mai Qiqi lifted her head from Chen Ke’s embrace and teased, "Are you going to come over? If you don’t, I’ll just go play with them."
So, these two knew each other, the two young men sighed in relief.
Chen Ke’s expression darkened even more, he gave her a dangerous glare and said, "Stop messing around, I’ll take you home."
"Hehe, okay." Mai Qiqi agreed obediently, then turned to the two men and said, "Zhao San, Wang Wu, he’s paying for your orders today, have fun."
The two young men awkwardly replied, "Sister Mai, our names aren’t Zhao San and Wang Wu."
But Mai Qiqi just waved at them, Chen Ke grabbed her bag, wrapped his arm around her, and the two left the bar.
In the car, Mai Qiqi took a deep breath and said, "I’m not going home, I want to stay in a hotel."
Chen Ke looked at her, "No, I can’t be at ease if you stay in a hotel."
"Then stay with me," Mai Qiqi, emboldened by alcohol, suggested.
"No, we’re going home."
Mai Qiqi pouted discontentedly, "I want to stay in a hotel, I won’t go home, I just won’t go home. If you send me home, once you leave, I’ll still head to the hotel." She seemed determined.
Chen Ke, feeling helpless, thought for a moment and asked, "Why don’t you want to go home? Did you have a conflict with your family? They all mean well..."
He felt that Mai Qiqi’s behavior today was like she had a disagreement with her family - drinking, flirting with other men, and flirting with two at that, and also stubbornly refusing to go home.
Mai Qiqi huffed, ignoring his assumption, and said resolutely, "I want to go to Beiluo Secret Realm. The place has water, mountains, a beautiful view, and the beds are big and soft, very comfortable."
Eventually, unable to persuade Mai Qiqi, Chen Ke had no choice but to take her to Beiluo Secret Realm. Upon reaching the hotel and observing it, he felt it was reputable and safe, so he helped Mai Qiqi up to the room.
Once inside, Mai Qiqi threw herself onto the soft, two-meter-wide bed and rolled around, "So comfy!"
Chen Ke glanced at her, then diverted his gaze and checked all the doors and windows thoroughly before approaching the bed and saying to Mai Qiqi, "Get some rest early, I’m leaving now."
Mai Qiqi, frustrated, bit her lip, suddenly got up, and threw herself at Chen Ke, hugging him tightly.
"Don’t leave tonight, stay with me, I’m a bit scared by myself."
Chen Ke felt his body stiffen and his throat dry, though holding her felt very good, very dizzying, he still forcefully pushed Mai Qiqi away, dropping her onto the bed.
"Stop messing around, I’m leaving." He had to leave quickly, if not, his lower regions were starting to rebel.
As Mai Qiqi saw him really about to leave, she shouted after his departing figure: "Chen Ke, I want to sleep with you, don’t you want to sleep with me?"
He did! Damn, he really did!
A voice roared inside Chen Ke.
But Mai Qiqi watched disappointedly as Chen Ke didn’t turn back, didn’t stop, and without hesitating even for a second, opened the door and left, shutting it tightly behind him.
"Chen Ke, jerk!" Mai Qiqi pounded on the bed with her fists.
At night, Wan Chu’er was reading in bed after washing up when Mai Qiqi called.
"It’s so late, what’s up?" Wan Chu’er asked nonchalantly.
Who knew the voice on the other end of the phone was Mai Qiqi sobbing, Wan Chu’er immediately sat up, anxiously asking: "What’s wrong? Explain before crying."
Mai Qiqi: "Chen Ke is useless — sob — sob —"
Wan Chu’er: "...How is Chen Ke useless?" Heaven forbid it’s the kind of ’useless’ she was thinking of.
Mai Qiqi cried, "It’s exactly that kind of useless."
!!!
Wan Chu’er struggled to ask: "Did you just try it with Chen Ke?"
"Sob — I even threw myself on the bed — sob — I told him — sob — yet he just walked away without turning back —, you see, I’m not ugly, under these circumstances he could leave without hesitation, if not ’useless’ then what is it! Sob — my life is so bitter — Chuchu, what should I do?"
Mai Qiqi was extremely heartbroken.
"Chen Ke is such a good man, who knew he’s only for show, not for use, I can’t bear to part with Chen Ke, sob — Chuchu, what should I do?"
While crying, a sudden thought popped into Mai Qiqi’s cramping brain, so she wiped her tears, cheered up and asked:
"Chuchu, do you know where they treat this kind of ’uselessness’? Help me check online, I’ll go convince Chen Ke to get treated, once treated, it’ll be fine."
Wan Chu’er: "...I have no idea, aren’t there ads all over the streets for this? Just try one by one, and you’ll find out which one is good."
"Great idea!" Mai Qiqi surprisingly agreed.
Really an idiot! Wan Chu’er immediately hung up the phone, thinking thankfully she had nothing in common with her.
As soon as Jiang Kechu entered the bedroom, he saw Wan Chu’er rubbing her arms, making a terrified expression.
"What’s wrong?"
Wan Chu’er looked up at Jiang Kechu, her eyes twinkling and asked, "Hey, let me ask you something, do you know if Chen Ke has any hidden illnesses?"
Jiang Kechu puzzled, "What hidden illness?"
Wan Chu’er smiled meaningfully: "I mean that kind of hidden illness," her gaze darting toward a certain part of him.
Jiang Kechu got it instantly, but also froze immediately, after a while he said: "Why are you concerned about others? Isn’t caring for me enough? I think we can have seven rounds tonight, let’s try doing it seven times in one night, how about that?"
Wan Chu’er felt thunder rolling, immediately pulled up the quilt to wrap herself tightly, gritting her teeth and said:
"I’m talking about something serious!"
"I’m also being serious here." Jiang Kechu jumped on her, not letting Wan Chu’er talk further.
After a ground-shaking tumble, Wan Chu’er, supporting her sore back, said unsteadily, "You talk to Chen Ke tomorrow, it’s important for Mai Qiqi’s future."
Jiang Kechu paused, slightly frustrated, "You still have the energy to care about others."
"Stop!" Wan Chu’er immediately shouted, quickly and succinctly explained the phone call from Mai Qiqi.
After listening, Jiang Kechu couldn’t help laughing, saying: "Chen Ke was doing it for her good, wanted to wait until after they were married to touch her." He couldn’t help but sigh: "Nowadays women, always overthinking everything."
Wan Chu’er glanced at him sideways: "Back then, why didn’t you think it was for the best? We weren’t even married and I was already pregnant with a huge belly."
Oh, she’s bringing up old grievances.
Jiang Kechu said with a bitter tone: "Back then you ran off to the US, so far away, we didn’t see each other for a year, tell me how much you owe me, you need to make it up to me."
Then he pounced again.
