My Beloved Has Risen from Death's Embrace novel Chapter 374

Xanthea silently rolled her eyes.

"He's off shooting a movie abroad and probably won't have the time. Oh, and Xan, Realm of Illusions has wrapped up filming. I've got a stack of scripts here, all of them specifically requesting you. There are also some advertising endorsements and magazine covers actively inviting you. I'll send them all to you later, and you can choose whichever you like. I won't interfere!"

"But."

"Listen, I know you've been busy with your love life lately, but you can't neglect your career. Orion will understand that, right?"

"Yeah."

It took Orion a moment to respond, his reluctance clear.

Xanthea bit her lip to suppress a laugh.

He didn’t understand at all; he hadn’t been going to the company himself!

"Okay, I got it."

"Then I'll hang up. Have fun with Orion!"

As soon as the call ended, Orion scooped her up in his arms.

Xanthea was startled. "What are you doing?"

"Aren't you the obedient one, Xannie, always listening to what I say?" Orion's tongue lightly pressed against his palate, and his dark eyes gleamed with mischief, "Right now, I'm want to..."

"What the hell do you want!" Xanthea clung to the sofa tightly. "The first sentence about being obedient was a lie, the second sentence 'biting you' is what I meant."

"Is that so?" Orion's lips curved up, and his tone sounded full of eager anticipation. "Then go ahead and bite."

"?"

Someone actually wanted to be bitten. Did he have a hidden masochistic side? Wait.

She looked down at him in shock. "What are you doing?!"

"Quick, let go of me!"

Xanthea struggled, and Orion finally set her down.

"Ding!"

Her phone buzzed with an email. It was from the research institute, and Xanthea froze as she read it.

"StarTech Explorers invites you to participate in the annual team selection exam. The time. Is…"

StarTech Explorers was a top chemistry research team at Crestwood Hall Academy and nationwide, her dream workplace.

But now, she was torn between the enthusiastic support of her fans, her uncle's expectations, and her own long-held aspirations.

"What's wrong?"

Orion, who had just brought in the basket of fruit from, noticed her unusual expression.
