A Perfect Match (189)

"I'd be surprised if people didn't think you were a thief, going to the Bulgari counter dressed like that."1

Liang Yin knew that he meant no harm, but she retorted nevertheless, "Can you not judge a book by its cover? How can you tell the quality of a person by the way she dresses?"

"It's a fact that you can't afford to be shopping at Bulgari."

There was nothing Liang Yin could say to that.

"So, did you get anything today?" he asked curiously. "Did you get the present?"

Liang Yin froze.

Qin Zhou, however, was intrigued. "What present?"

"It's…"

Before the actor could say anything, Liang Yin lunged at him nervously and covered his mouth. "Don't say it!"

The suddenness of the movement startled him. He rolled his eyes at the girl, feeling bitter and helpless. "Let go."

Liang Yin shushed him. "Confidential, okay? No talking."

"Got it! You can let go now!"

Qin Zhou studied the two of them meaningfully, his eyes darkening.

…

"You're not interested in Liang Yin, are you?" On the way back, sitting in the passenger seat, the actor asked suspiciously, "You seem to treat her in a special way?! Do you have feelings for her?!"

Qin Zhou smiled but said nothing.

"You haven't taken on an artiste for years. Now you're saying you want to take on Liang Yin, are you planning to promote her?"

Qin Zhou replied truthfully, "It depends on her qualifications. If she doesn't have the qualifications, then there's no point in promoting her."

"Hmph, Liang Yin says she wants to enter the entertainment industry. It sounds like she wants to be a celebrity. Actually, what's her motive? You're so astute. Can't you tell?"

Qin Zhou didn't comment, nor did he try to hide anything from Hua Jin.

"I know."

The actor continued, "You can tell too, that she likes you?"

Indeed, when you like someone, your eyes and expression cannot lie.

Qin Zhou replied with a question, "What do you mean by 'like'?"

"Mmmm?"

"I don't quite understand. What does she like about me?" The man seemed to be asking a rhetorical question. He really could not understand what it was that Liang Yin liked about him.

In the past, women liked, admired, and pursued him because he had resources that they needed. Reputation, benefits, resources, exposure. What they could offer was their own body. And Qin Zhou, on the other hand, could give them what they needed.

But what about Liang Yin? What did she like about him, and what did she want from him? Qin Zhou was a rational man. He was rational enough to try to analyze the situation, but he found no answer. At what level was Liang Yin's fondness for him?

"You're handsome." Hua Jin was the first to speak. "Girls are picky about looks, no matter what. You look good enough to even debut as a celebrity. That must have pulled in significant impression points."

"Just because of looks?" Qin Zhou couldn't help smiling. "Liking someone so easily for that reason. She's a young girl who hasn't quite grown up!"

The actor rolled his eyes in exasperation. "You're an old cow to her. She's a greenhorn. She's still young to begin with. Furthermore…" After a pause, the actor couldn't help but say meaningfully, "Emotions are not rational in the first place. Can you even explain why you love someone?"
