"Ms. Wen, where are you going?"
Wen Sining turned around and saw Yun Chutong behind her, looking curious.
She was standing at the door. People were coming in and going out all around her. Naturally, her standing there caused a congestion. Among the crowd, someone with a sharp eye recognized Yun Chutong.
"Amanda?"
The voice came from above. In a second, Yun Chutong was surrounded.
Wen Sining reached out her hand, trying to help her, but with all the loud voices around, she couldn't get through.
Yun Chutong seemed to be enjoying it. A smile was always on her face as she took one piece of paper and pen after another.
Some enthusiastic fans even took out their phones. After one person took the lead, the autograph - seeking turned into a photo - taking session.
Seeing that they weren't going to stop anytime soon, Wen Sining looked anxiously towards the door.
The black Maybach was parked by the road. The door opened, and Lu Luochen stepped out in a suit.
Oh no!
Through the glass door, Wen Sining watched as the man in front walked towards them methodically.
She looked back at Yun Chutong, who was still fully engaged in taking photos. Helplessly, she had no choice but to blend in with the crowd.
The door opened, and the bell above it rang. Lu Luochen's affectionate eyes landed on Yun Chutong. Despite the passers - by around them, they only had eyes for each other.
Yun Chutong returned the phone to the fan. She looked apologetically at the other fans who were still eager, "Sorry, I have work to do, so I can't take more photos with you all."
The fans murmured, but they didn't stop her from leaving.
Yun Chutong left gracefully, and Lu Luochen followed closely behind. Wen Sining, who was hiding in the fan group, let out a sigh of relief after they left the front hall.
The upcoming shooting would last for a month. Would she have to keep hiding from Lu Luochen furtively like this?
It's really a hassle!
Wen Sining pushed open the glass door and passed by Feng Jingcheng, who was entering the restaurant.
With his hand on the doorknob, Feng Jingcheng seemed to realize something and stopped. He looked back, but in the vast crowd, he didn't see anything special.
Shaking his head, Feng Jingcheng pushed the door and walked in.
The owner of this restaurant was a friend he knew well. He only had time to come and congratulate him today.
Walking in, his eyes scanned the layout of the restaurant. Feng Jingcheng spotted Lu Luochen's figure in the crowd.
"Luochen?"
He couldn't help but call out, but the person in front didn't turn back.
Feng Jingcheng pushed through the crowd and quickly followed the familiar voice to the private room area.
"Luochen!"
This time, even the sulking Yun Chutong turned around.
They had met before. Before Feng Jingcheng went abroad, Lu Luochen had specifically introduced Yun Chutong to them.
Feng Jingcheng greeted Yun Chutong politely and walked enthusiastically to Lu Luochen's side. "I thought I was seeing things."
"Aren't you performing today?"
"Yeah, the troupe is on a break. I just came to patronize a friend's store."
Seeing the two of them start chatting, Yun Chutong, who felt ignored, was very unhappy and pushed open the door of the private room and walked in.
Watching the door swing back and forth, Lu Luochen sighed and patted Feng Jingcheng on the shoulder. "Come in with me."
When Lu Luochen entered, Qiao Xi stared at him blankly. A handsome man and a beautiful woman together were an irresistible combination.
After Feng Jingcheng entered, Qiao Xi's eyes sparkled. Compared with Lu Luochen's coldness, Feng Jingcheng seemed much more approachable, and he still exuded an air of nobility.
"Let me introduce. This is my friend, Feng Jingcheng." Lu Luochen said to Sister Fang and Xiaolan.
In the private room, only Qiao Xi was from Moxin Group. She wasn't familiar with any of them. Standing aside, she felt extremely uncomfortable.
After the introduction, they all found their seats and sat down.
Yun Chutong was still angry with Lu Luochen. She turned her face to the other side, deliberately avoiding looking at him.
After a few days of cold treatment, Lu Luochen had developed a strong ability to withstand pressure. He kept picking up Yun Chutong's favorite food for her and took good care of her during the meal.
On the opposite side, Qiao Xi looked at the table full of dishes but didn't eat a single bite. She was already stuffed with the "dog food" in front of her.
On her left, Sister Fang and Xiaolan were chatting. On her right was Feng Jingcheng, whom she didn't know. Caught in the middle, she helplessly took out her phone for comfort.
Wen Sining had just arrived at the company. She sat down at her desk, out of breath.
Buzz - buzz~
The phone vibrated on the table a few times.
Wen Sining took a sip of water and picked up the phone. There was a message.
[ Sining, I'm so embarrassed here alone! ]
The text was full of Qiao Xi's nervousness.
The difficult - to - deal - with Lu Luochen appeared in Wen Sining's mind. She could very well understand Qiao Xi. Bowing her head, she typed a line of words and pressed the send button.
In the quiet private room, the sound of the phone was extremely loud. Qiao Xi looked back at everyone embarrassedly and turned off the sound under the table.
"Don't be so restrained." Feng Jingcheng picked up the kettle in front of him and thoughtfully poured some cool boiled water into the empty cup in front of Qiao Xi.
When she sat down, Qiao Xi had drunk a whole glass of water out of embarrassment before even touching her chopsticks. Now, seeing the delicious food, she had no appetite at all.
Facing Feng Jingcheng's friendliness, she smiled at him shyly. "Thank you."
"You're welcome." Feng Jingcheng put down the kettle and no longer looked at Qiao Xi, which also relieved Qiao Xi of some pressure.
After that, the atmosphere became much more relaxed. Under Lu Luochen's meticulous care, Yun Chutong began to act coquettishly with him.
Originally, Moxin Group was supposed to treat everyone to this meal, but with the appearance of Lu Luochen and Feng Jingcheng, the host of the treat became Lu Luochen.
"Teacher Amanda, we still need to discuss the shooting process later."
Standing at the restaurant door, Qiao Xi walked forward embarrassedly to remind the reluctant - to - part Yun Chutong.
She felt like a sinner who had done something wrong. After she finished speaking, she had to endure Yun Chutong's unhappy look.
"I'll pick you up tonight." Lu Luochen let go of her waist.
In front of everyone, Yun Chutong stood on tiptoe and kissed Lu Luochen on the cheek. Then, she showed a proud smile.
On the way back to the company, Qiao Xi walked in the front, listening to the conversation behind her.
"I knew that General Manager Lu wouldn't let you go."
"Yeah, General Manager Lu has been so good to Teacher Amanda over the years. No matter how busy he is at work, as long as you call him, he'll come right away."
The corners of Yun Chutong's lips curled up. As she walked, she kept wiggling her waist.
"I'll send the photo I just took to the company later and ask them to prepare for the release." Sister Fang was an action - oriented person. As she said this, she had already picked up her phone.
When they arrived at the door of Moxin Building, Qiao Xi stopped and waited for them to go in first.
Yun Chutong was so high - and - mighty that she didn't even put Qiao Xi in her eyes.
"Team Leader Wen is already waiting for everyone in the meeting room. I'll take you there now."
When the elevator reached the first floor, Yun Chutong walked in arrogantly. The people already in the elevator were intimidated by her cold and noble aura.
