Chapter 168
Ten minutes later, the three got on the sightseeing car and returned to the manor.
As soon as they got off, they met the steward. Seeing Mr. Song bring back two ladies, the steward first politely greeted them, then asked in French: “Sir, do you need lunch prepared for the two ladies?”
Zhong Ruanxing: “............”
Very good, let her guess. Based on the context and facial expressions, what he said should be a question, right?
Fortunately, Song JinXing responded quickly in English: “Please prepare western food for me and my friend. Also prepare a yacht to send my friend away after the meal. Thank you.”
The steward's eyes lit up as he complimented: “You can already understand what I'm saying. Your French has improved a lot.”
Song JinXing smiled at him.
Zhong Ruanxing: Learning French is imperative!
Seeing this scene, Bai Yinyue felt a little funny.
The lively expressions on "Song JinXing's" face finally made her completely associate this body with Zhong Ruanxing. She was restraining herself outside, but as soon as she went upstairs to the study, she eagerly pulled Zhong Ruanxing to curiously examine her.
"So amazing! How did this happen? How do you feel now? Will I shake your soul out if I shake you?"
After saying that, she really reached out and held Zhong Ruanxing's arms on both sides and shook her back and forth twice.
Seeing her "touch" his own body, Song JinXing really couldn't stand it, even if he wasn't in that body now.
He strode over to block Bai Yinyue with his hand and looked at her expressionlessly.
Bai Yinyue: "............"
Well, she thought the ice cube had warmed up a bit, but now he's back to his old self!
Zhong Ruanxing shook her head with a smile and pulled Song JinXing’s hand: “Okay, don’t scare her.”
Bai Yinyue pitifully said: "Xingxing, we are still good girlfriends, right?"
Zhong Ruanxing: "Of course!"
Bai Yinyue: "But Mr. Song doesn't seem to want me to get close to you. Look, his eyes are so scary."
Zhong Ruanxing immediately turned her head and glared at him: "How could you do that?"
Song JinXing: "......?" Bai Yinyue stood next to her and gave Song JinXing an innocent smile.
Song JinXing: "............"
Seeing things were good, Bai Yinyue tiptoed and patted Zhong Ruanxing on the shoulder: "Okay, you two must have a lot to talk about. I'll go out for a walk first and let you chat slowly."
After saying that, she left the study room with a thoughtful and considerate look.
Song JinXing: "............"
It’s just like people said, he finally understood what a “green tea” is.
As long as Zhong Ruanxing is the one being schemed, she can't discern the “flavor” at all. Bai Yinyue is no problem at all. Hmm!
Seeing her leave, Zhong Ruanxing immediately walked up to Song JinXing and hugged him as soon as Bai Yinyue closed the study door.
Song JinXing: "......" It was quite eerie to be suddenly hugged by his own body. Fortunately, it still felt familiar. He helplessly laughed: "What are you doing?"
This was also the first time Zhong Ruanxing hugged herself like this. Her soft body felt nice to hug.
She said solemnly: "I thought about it on the way here. I think the reason for the swap this time may be because we kissed."
Song JinXing raised his eyebrows.
Zhong Ruanxing: "Let's kiss again and see if we can switch back."
Saying so, she pretended to lower her head to kiss him.
When she was about to kiss, her movements suddenly stopped midair, and a struggling expression appeared on her face. After a long time, she said distressfully: “I really can’t kiss my own face.”
Song JinXing chuckled and said in a low voice, "Close your eyes."
She obediently closed her eyes.
He then imitated her posture from last night, tiptoed and kissed her lips. Their soft lips touched, neither of them moved. Zhong Ruanxing's lightly closed eyelashes fluttered violently. After a while, she really couldn't stand it and opened her eyes wide.
The two were still lip-locked, staring at each other. One minute passed, two minutes passed, five minutes passed, nothing happened.
Zhong Ruanxing took a breath and stepped back: “It doesn’t seem so.”
Song JinXing said, "Perhaps each swap represents a new stage in life."
Zhong Ruanxing frowned: "New stage?"
Song JinXing explained: “The first swap allowed us to get to know each other and start a new life. And the second swap happened when both of our lives had undergone huge changes, which also allowed us to confirm our feelings for each other. You also confirmed at that time that you like me, right?"
Zhong Ruanxing thought back to the time in the hospital. Her sweet and sour feelings, she nodded.
Song JinXing said, "The third swap happened last night, after we confirmed our relationship. So I guess the swap rules are not when a crisis occurs, but at every important life node."
What he said seemed to make sense. Zhong Ruanxing hissed: "Then according to this rule, what will the next swap timing be?"
Song JinXing smiled and said, "I guess it's marriage, so......" He asked sincerely: “Shall we go back and get married now to try it out?"
Zhong Ruanxing: "......" She looked at him dubiously: “Song JinXing, are you trying to trick me into marriage?”
Song JinXing showed a regretful expression: "You got me." Zhong Ruanxing laughed and poked him: "Forget it. Anyway, as the master said, let nature take its course. It's good to try the wonderful feeling of dating my own body!"
She could always easily convince herself to accept the situation with the most optimistic reasons.
Song JinXing pulled her to his side. Now that they had swapped bodies, he couldn't hold her entire body in his arms like last night, so he had to regretfully give up. "The company will trouble you again in the next period of time."
Zhong Ruanxing also solemnly patted him on the shoulder: "You'll have to work hard filming next. Try to win Best Actress before we swap back!"
Song JinXing smiled: "Okay, I'll do my best."
She took his hand and walked to the desk, turned on the computer: “Okay, now for the post-swap maintenance items, information exchange! Has the company added a lot of new businesses recently?"
She was very proactive.
Song JinXing sat down at the desk, and the two began to exchange various information from this period of time one by one.
They chatted for a few hours until lunch time, when the butler came to remind them to eat, before ending the session. Fortunately, it was not their first swap, so they were both experienced and quickly got used to the swapped identities again.
When they went downstairs, Zhong Ruanxing had grasped the domineering CEO's aura again.
Sitting at the dining table, Bai Yinyue watched the two walk over. If it wasn't for the fact that eyes don't lie, she would have almost been fooled. The chef had prepared a sumptuous western meal. She cut a piece of steak and asked, "What are you going to do next?"
Zhong Ruanxing said, "Same as before, don't worry, we are experienced. But you must keep the secret for us."
Bai Yinyue raised her hand and made a zipper gesture over her mouth: "I will take this secret to the grave, trust me!"
Zhong Ruanxing held out her hand. Bai Yinyue immediately understood and the two solemnly high-fived, looking very serious, as if saying "You handle things, I'm assured!"
Bai Yinyue: “Watch how it’s done!”
After the meal, Bai Yinyue prepared to leave by boat. If she didn't leave now, the CEO's eyes would kill her.
But Zhong Ruanxing and Song JinXing didn't have time to vacation here either. The sudden swap disrupted their original work and life plans, and they were busy after returning home. They didn't stay for more than half a day and left Hidden Star Island that afternoon on the confession cruise from last night.
Through this live show, Zhong Ruanxing's popularity surged. Even before the livestream ended, Ren Tong had received many proactively offered resources and business opportunities, waiting for her to select when she returned.
The two unanimously decided not to announce their relationship to the outside world before swapping back, to avoid unnecessary troubles. To prevent being photographed together, they did not leave together, taking planes back to China one after the other.
Before boarding the plane, Song JinXing received a call from Song Shuling, who intimately called him, "Sister, what time is your flight? I'll come pick you up!"
She didn't even say she was calling her brother. If you didn't know better, you'd think Zhong Ruanxing was her real sister.
Song JinXing said lightly: "You should be more willing to pick up your brother."
Song Shuling didn't react at first: "Ah? Sister, how are you..." She paused, and the next moment, an excited scream came from the receiver. Then the call was unceremoniously hung up.
Song JinXing: "............"
Indeed not a real sister!
