Chapter 117: Unspoken Rules
"If I don't accept this kind of treatment, what consequences will I face?"
Qi Kexin asked cautiously.
Chen Fang thought for a while and said, "Actually, the consequences won't be too severe; it will be just like your current condition. However, if it drags on, not only will your physical health be affected, but your psychological well-being will also suffer. I had a patient before who ended up with blocked meridians after a long time."
Qi Kexin nodded and stopped talking.
"Miss Qi, can you tell me, you clearly have desires and needs, why are you trying so hard to suppress them? The joys of men and women are part of human nature, and the cycle of Yang and Yin is the natural order. Are you afraid of something?"
Qi Kexin looked like she had something to say but hesitated.
She bit her lip, struggling for a long time.
She said, "If I tell you, can you not tell others, please?"
"Yes, I won't say a word,"
Chen Fang nodded in agreement.
Qi Kexin sighed and said, "The story begins when I was nineteen..."
That year at nineteen,
Qi Kexin, who was still studying at the Film Academy, was chosen by a certain production to play the fourth female lead.
It was such a minor role, but it won the approval of the audience, and from then on, the name Qi Kexin officially entered the public's eye.
With a passion for acting,
Qi Kexin looked forward to a bright future.
That same year, she was signed by a top entertainment company and officially became one of their artists.
Having such great resources was fortunate for someone so young.
But she hadn't realized that the entertainment industry was not as pure as she had imagined—that was when her nightmare began.
Not long after signing,
a very famous producer approached her.
He showed her a very promising script,
and hinted that she could play the female lead as long as she was willing.
The naive Qi Kexin was delighted,
and readily accepted the "invitation."
That night, under the pretext of a screen test, the producer took her into a hotel room.
What followed,
is known in the industry as the "casting couch."
The producer groped her and demanded that she "serve" him well as a reward for being chosen for the lead role.
Qi Kexin was unwilling and began to resist.
But once trapped in the tiger's den, there was no escape.
Overpowered by the producer, Qi Kexin lost her virginity.
She thought it was the first and last time.
But what she did not anticipate was that a single compromise would lead to repeated humiliation.
After servicing the producer, there were the director, the sponsor, and the distributor to follow. At that time, she was not particularly well-known, and she felt like a toy, being played with by these people, even becoming a gift used to entertain guests.
She considered reporting it to the police.
But she knew very well that if she made a fuss, her acting career would truly be over, and on top of that, she might have to pay a huge penalty for breach of contract—money she simply couldn't afford.
As she said this,
tears began to fall from Qi Kexin's eyes.
Choking back sobs, she said, "What I remember most clearly is that popular period drama when I was in my twenties. To secure that role, aside from the days when my period came, there wasn't a single evening I had free. In the eyes of my fans, I was the pure and innocent fairy, but only I knew that I was dirtier than anyone could imagine..."
Chen Fang, seeing her like this,
handed her a tissue.
Qi Kexin's rise to fame finally gave her the capital to throw off her shackles.
Once she had saved enough money,
she decisively terminated her contract with her former entertainment company. The incident caused quite a stir in the entertainment industry at the time, with all sorts of commentary, but most of it was criticism of Qi Kexin for being heartless, accusing her of going solo as soon as she got big.
The capital-rich entertainment company manipulated public opinion and even cut off all her industry contacts.
For more than a year,
Qi Kexin couldn't escape the endless barrage of abuse.
She didn't get any work offers.
Later,
she never signed with any company again.
Instead, she muddled through the industry as an independent artist.
Last year, she was approached by a low-budget film. The director was not well-known, and the remuneration was minimal, but Qi Kexin still took the role.
Unexpectedly, the film later triggered a box office explosion. With less than five million invested, it earned a billion at the box office.
Qi Kexin became popular again, and from then on, she was inundated with offers, becoming one of the sought-after leading actresses.
By the time Qi Kexin had finished speaking,
her tears had already started flowing freely.
Chen Fang listened with a heavy heart.
It seemed that the darkness of the entertainment industry was indeed no less pervasive than that of the political or business worlds.
"I'm a normal woman, I certainly know that I have desires, but along the way, I haven't met a single good man. It seems that all men see women as toys, what they want is always my body, except... except for you..."
At this point,
Qi Kexin lifted her head, looking earnestly at Chen Fang.
"Miss Qi..."
Chen Fang wanted to say something but was interrupted by Qi Kexin.
"Chen Fang, listen to me, I actually had lost hope in life long ago, and I believed that I would never encounter another man who would make my heart race. But fate was still kind to me. In Changming County, I met you. You're smart and brave. You embody all the beautiful illusions I have about men."
After saying this,
Qi Kexin slowly stood up.
She took Chen Fang's hand and sat down on the sofa next to them.
"Miss Qi, I..."
Chen Fang began to speak, only to be interrupted by Qi Kexin again.
She put a finger to her lips and said, "Shh, Chen Fang, I ask you, do you find me dirty?"
"You're worrying too much, Miss Qi, how could I find you dirty?"
That made Qi Kexin smile sweetly.
She said, "Didn't you say that you think I'm trying to seduce you with Yang and Yin? Will you give me your essence?"
"This..."
"You don't want to?"
"It's not that, I'm treating you not because I..."
Interrupted for the third time.
But this time, it wasn't because Qi Kexin spoke.
It was because she stood up, spread her legs, and sat directly on Chen Fang's lap.
She fiddled with her loose camisole, and out popped a large white rabbit.
With one hand holding the large white rabbit, Qi Kexin asked, "Do you like it? The entertainment tabloids say it's surgically enhanced, but it's all natural, untouched by surgery."
"Uh, it's beautiful."
Chen Fang swallowed hard and said.
The goddess of the silver screen was now sitting in front of him in such a wanton pose, that feeling was indescribable.
Qi Kexin gave a seductive smile.
She directly stuffed the large white rabbit into Chen Fang's mouth.
With the beauty in his arms and the softness in his mouth, even a sage like Leizu Han could hardly resist.
All that nonsense about sitting unruffled in the presence of a beauty—any man who could do that must be impotent.
Since leaving Mo Zifei, Chen Fang had been pent up with frustration. Now provoked in such a manner, it would be unmanly not to react.
He steeled his heart.
He couldn't care less anymore.
Like a starved ghost, he clutched the large white bun and began to devour it greedily.
The stimulation of the senses swiftly flipped the switch on Qi Kexin's body, and she started to moan softly, her body trembling uncontrollably. The primal desire that had built up in her heart burst forth like floodwaters through a dam.
"Shall we... go inside?"
At that moment, Qi Kexin felt her body burning up.
She whispered into Chen Fang's ear.
Chen Fang picked up the disheveled woman in his arms and walked into the bedroom of the nanny van...
