Starlight Has No Past
Chapter 10 Part 1
Ye Qiao woke to a splitting headache.
She was always a shallow sleeper. She couldn’t fall asleep without taking
Diazepam and even alcohol couldn’t get her to sleep past 7 o’clock in the morning.

It was sunny outside, but the dark colored curtains in her room were closely pulled
together making it look like it was the middle of the night. She was used to the dark
room and her brain was dull-- --She got drunk, fell asleep at the night market, and

Then? How did she take off that expensive gown, hung it neatly in the closet, and
then got in bed on her own?

Ye Qiao slowly sat up from the bed. The white covered script of <The Watcher> was
on the nightstand next to her bed. On it, the 8 black hair pins she had worn last night
were orderly arranged, from largest to smallest one after the other. It was a pattern
arranged by a Virgo.

She took a hot shower in the bathroom inside the master bedroom and wrapped
herself in a bath towel to go to the kitchen. She heated up a cup of instant wonton
noodles and walked out to the living room-- --

A tall man’s body was lying on her couch with his long limbs hanging down outside

Zhou Tingsheng?
Ye Qiao walked barefoot over to the couch and carefully looked at the slightly blue
circles around his eyes. This man, even his sleepy face was too sharp.

Her cell phone was still in Zhou Tingsheng’s hand. Ye Qiao pulled it out of his hand
and woke him up. He look at her with eyes that had a mix of confusion and annoyance.

Ye Qiao used one hand to tightly hold onto her bath towel. She didn’t expect him to
wake so easily: “Your home is only 5 meters away from here. What are you sleeping
here for?”

There was a confused look on Zhou Tingsheng’s face.
He had been lying on the couch waiting for Liang Zirao to come out of the bedroom.
However, she, a Virgo, stayed in the bedroom for such a long time that he gradually
grew sleepy.

He would never have expected that she would leave him there without waking him up.
Zhou Tingsheng rubbed his forehead: “I drank too much.”
Ye Qiao smirked and went back to the bedroom to get changed: “I’ve asked my cousin
to go to the doctor with me today. You better go back home now.”
to go to the doctor with me today. You better go back home now.”
Her voice was as cold as a love rat after a one-night stand.
Zhou Tingsheng was just about to get up when the doorbell started to ring.
Ye Qiao was halfway through changing and had no choice but to ask him: “Please get
the door for me.”
the door for me.”
Qianxi rang the bell again. “Cousin, it’s me!”
The door opened. Qianxi turned into a statue at the door: “Wrong…...wrong door……”
She looked besides her, it was the 23rd floor and 2301. It was her movie star cousin’s
home.

My goodness, had she happened to witness a live edition of the so called hidden rules
in the entertainment circle? Her pure and integrous cousin who was devoted to the
performing arts had opened herself up and slept with an actor! Wait, this man didn’t
look familiar?

Was he a fan? A high quality fan……
As Qianxi was making up stories in her head, she was also checking the handsome
man in front of her up and down. Then she self-confidently asked him: “Who are you!”

Zhou Tingsheng didn’t know how to handle young girls. He patiently pointed behind
her: “I live next door. I’m in the wrong apartment, sorry.”

Then he walked out, straight to the other side, and opened the door to 2302.
Qianxi: “......”
Ye Qiao came out the bedroom and found only Qianxi at the door. She figured
Zhou Tingsheng must have gone home. She said to Qianxi: “What are you doing at
the doorway?”

Qianxi came back to her senses and strode over: “Cousin! I’ve seen everything! Next

Ye Qiao’s expression changed when she heard the name Cheng Su.
Ye Qiao smirked: “Then don’t lie. Tell her that I got dumped by a man, now I’m
partying every night and I’m sleeping in and out of the circle. She’ll be satisfied.”

Qianxi made a gesture of cutting her own tongue and immediately apologized:
“My bad, cousin…...I’ll never mention that woman again.”
