Chapter 50: An Encounter on the Way

After ending the call, Yun Chutong casually handed the phone to Sister Fang, who was craning her neck waiting for the result.

During the call, Sister Fang had her head close to the edge of the receiver and heard some of the content. Stroking the phone with her fingers, she looked at Yun Chutong indulgently. "Amanda, you're really my lucky star. You don't know, after the photos were sent out this afternoon, many production crews have shown interest. You'll be really busy these days."

Yun Chutong stroked her hair, her sharp eyes with a meticulous smile. "Choose carefully."

"Don't worry. I guarantee I'll pick projects that will take your reputation to a higher level." As Sister Fang said this, she excitedly went out to make arrangements.

Managers and artists achieve success together, which is why Sister Fang was so eager to promote Yun Chutong.

...

The evening sky was orange - yellow. The glow of the setting sun shone over the whole city of Li.

Lu Luochen arrived at the shooting location of Yun Chutong on time. He parked the car on one side and sat in the car, working while waiting.

Time passed by second by second. The sky changed from twilight to darkness. The streetlights gradually came on. Lu Luochen closed the files and tiredly turned his neck.

He turned his face to the window. Yun Chutong was wearing a windbreaker, and her hair fluttered in the wind. Lu Luochen quickly got out of the car and opened the car door for Yun Chutong in advance.

When getting into the car, their eyes met. Yun Chutong got into the car happily under Lu Luochen's care.

She took off her windbreaker, tidied it up and put it on one side. When she saw Lu Luochen get in the car, she immediately leaned over. Her arm naturally hooked around his neck, and her cheek affectionately nestled against his chest.

"Have you been waiting for a long time?"

Lu Luochen pushed aside her hair and stroked her cheek. "No. How was your day? Everything go smoothly?"

The topic naturally shifted to Yun Chutong, and she sat up straight.

She absent - mindedly tugged at her hair and let out a long sigh.

"Something on your mind?" Lu Luochen reached out and carefully fastened the seatbelt in front of Yun Chutong's waist.

"Luochen, did that set of photos really not affect you? Will Grandpa..." Yun Chutong frowned and stopped halfway through her sentence.

Mentioning the old man, memories of the past welled up in their minds. The matter of going abroad was a heavy mark on both of them.

Lu Luochen reached out and gently held Yun Chutong's face. "This time, no matter what Grandpa does, I won't let him hurt you in any way."

Yun Chutong's eyes changed from shock to love. She threw herself into Lu Luochen's arms.

The Maybach left the shooting site and shuttled through the traffic. It stopped in front of a high - end restaurant.

This was one of the top French restaurants in Li City and also Yun Chutong's favorite.

"Luochen, wait for me a moment." Yun Chutong tiptoed and tapped Lu Luochen's shoulder, then walked away from him.

In the crowd, Yun Chutong was always the most eye - catching. Lu Luochen watched her brisk steps. The broad road seemed like a large - scale stage, and the passers - by were all her audience.

"Miss Wen, what a coincidence!"

Yun Chutong stunningly appeared in front of Wen Sining and Qiao Xi.

The human obstacle blocked their way. Wen Sining and Qiao Xi were stunned for a few seconds before they came to their senses.

Qiao Xi greeted her enthusiastically. "Teacher Amanda, are you alone?"

She was no ordinary person. How could she go out without any company?

Before Yun Chutong could speak, Wen Sining was already looking around for a familiar figure.

"Are you just off work? Going for dinner?"

"Yes. We heard there's a French restaurant ahead. We're going to check it out."

Yun Chutong nodded thoughtfully and looked up at the absent - minded Wen Sining. For some reason, maybe it was a woman's sixth sense, Yun Chutong felt a strong hostility towards Wen Sining.

"Miss Wen."

Wen Sining looked at Yun Chutong.

"I'm also going to the restaurant you mentioned. How about we go together?" Yun Chutong invited.

Together?

Wen Sining noticed Lu Luochen in the vast crowd. Going with Yun Chutong would mean being with Lu Luochen.

No way!

"No thanks. Teacher Amanda must be here with friends. We don't want to disturb your time with your friends."

After saying that, Wen Sining pulled Qiao Xi's arm, hoping she would agree.

Qiao Xi felt uncomfortable having lunch with Yun Chutong. If they had dinner together, she would surely be so hungry that she couldn't sleep at night.

"We've already booked a table in advance. We won't go with Teacher Amanda. Maybe next time if we have the chance."

Yun Chutong couldn't stand being rejected. She took a step to the side with her left foot and stood straight between the two of them. She invited again. "We haven't booked a table yet."

This time, she didn't give Wen Sining a chance to refuse. She turned around and waved her arm high in the crowd.

"Luochen!"

Seeing this, Qiao Xi quietly came to Wen Sining's side and whispered in her ear, "How about we change to another restaurant?"

Wen Sining held her palm and shook her head. Yun Chutong's insistence on having dinner with them was probably to show off that her backer was Lu Luochen. If they refused again, her pride would create more embarrassing situations like this.

"Luochen, let me introduce you." Yun Chutong nestled in Lu Luochen's shoulder like a little bird. "This is Miss Wen, the person in charge of my shooting this time."

"Hello, I'm Lu Luochen, Chutong's boyfriend." Lu Luochen politely reached out his hand.

Boyfriend? So he always introduced himself as Yun Chutong's boyfriend to the outside world.

Wen Sining felt a bitter taste in her heart. She looked up at Lu Luochen and politely touched the tip of her finger to his open palm. "Hello."

The moment their eyes met, Lu Luochen frowned.

Except for the scar on her face, the rest of her seemed so familiar.

Wen Sining turned her cheek to look at Qiao Xi, deliberately avoiding Lu Luochen's gaze.

A woman's sixth sense was the most accurate. Yun Chutong coquettishly shook Lu Luochen's arm. "Miss Wen and her friend have already booked a table. We just agreed to go together."

"Since Miss Wen has booked a table, I'll treat you all to this meal."

Treating people to lunch and dinner. He really lived up to his reputation as the richest man in Li City.

Qiao Xi thought to herself and pulled Wen Sining's arm, walking behind them.

When they arrived at the restaurant, Lu Luochen didn't use the table Qiao Xi had booked in the afternoon. It was mainly because of Yun Chutong's identity. Sitting in a seat near the window would easily attract the attention of passers - by and cause a stir.

During the process of serving the dishes, Yun Chutong kept clinging to Lu Luochen. Maybe because she was a star, the daily shootings made her feel no embarrassment when doing any intimate actions.
