Hearing Feng Yu say this, Lu Zhiqian was slightly stunned. A curve formed at the corner of his mouth as he replied calmly, "Fine."
He cast a glance at Qiu Fu and said to Feng Yu, "Regarding that film, I have a new idea for the plot. How about changing this plot point? It might make the climax more intense."
"It does seem reasonable." Feng Yu thought seriously for a while and walked shoulder - to - shoulder with Lu Zhiqian in the direction of the banquet hall.
"Sister - in - law?" Fu Liangshen had his hands in his trouser pockets. His gaze on Feng Yu was rather cold.
Fu Liangshen? Shouldn't he be socializing inside? How did he have the time to come to this back garden?
Feng Yu felt a chill run down her back.
Mr. Fu... No, she must never let Fu Liangshen see Mr. Fu.
Feng Yu stepped sideways to block Fu Qianchen in the distance. Forcing a relaxed smile, she said, "Big brother, what a coincidence."
"It's no coincidence." Fu Liangshen said with a hint of sarcasm, "Sister - in - law was really in the spotlight just now. She just cleared her name, but can't even bear the loneliness for a short while?"
"Big brother, that's not right."
Feng Yu's voice turned cold. Facing Fu Liangshen's probe, she remained calm, "You know, this is the first time I've seen such a scene. I felt so stifled inside that I came out to breathe some fresh air."
She paused for a moment and continued to explain, "By such a coincidence, Actor Lu came out to pick up a ball for a child, and that's how we bumped into each other. Actor Lu and I have work to do. Big brother won't mind, right?"
"Humph." Fu Liangshen looked in Lu Zhiqian's direction rather discontentedly. When he saw Lu Zhiqian, his pupils dilated suddenly, and there was even a hint of panic in his expression.
But he quickly concealed his panic and still said coldly, "It's best if that's the case."
Fu Liangshen seemed reluctant to stay here for a single second longer. He turned around and walked back into the banquet hall.
Feng Yu watched his departing back and suddenly sighed. She had reacted quickly enough just now. Fu Liangshen should not have noticed the person lurking in the dimness behind.
She was very worried about Mr. Fu's situation.
If Lu Zhiqian wasn't by her side, she would probably have rushed to Mr. Fu's side by now.
No matter how worried she was about him, at this moment, protecting Mr. Fu's identity was the top priority. She smiled and said, "Actor Lu, shall we go?"
"Sure." Lu Zhiqian replied calmly.
Feng Yu walked in front, keeping a certain distance from Lu Zhiqian.
What she didn't know was that while Lu Zhiqian was walking towards the banquet hall, his peripheral vision had always been on Qiu Fu in the dimness.
"Actor Lu?"
"Let's go." Lu Zhiqian retracted his gaze and followed Feng Yu into the banquet hall again.
At this moment in the back garden, Bai Shaoting had hidden for a while before hurriedly coming out. "Third brother, you've already ensured that third sister - in - law is safe. You'd better leave first."
Fu Qianchen remained silent, but the scene of Feng Yu and Fu Liangshen together kept replaying in his mind. He clenched his fists so tightly that his fingernails dug into his flesh, yet he didn't feel any pain.
Under the silver mask, his deep eyes were filled with coldness and hatred.
After a while, he said coldly, "You stay here. If Fu Liangshen makes things difficult for her later and she can't handle it herself, then you step in."
"Third brother, I know what to do."
Bai Shaoting took out his phone, glanced at it, and urged again, "Lao Zhao and He Xi are already waiting outside. Third brother, you should go back first."
Fu Qianchen nodded and left the Wanda Hotel.
Inside the banquet hall.
The banquet had reached a white - hot stage. The young ladies from various families were vying to perform their talents here, hoping to show their best sides.
Here, a good talent not only brought glory to the family but also paved a good path for one's future. For example, it could help one find a well - matched husband.
As a prominent family among the aristocrats, the Fu family naturally sat in the front row of the stage, enjoying the talent shows of these famous young ladies.
Feng Yu and Lu Zhiqian greeted Director Yang and then came to the front of the stage, gracefully sitting beside Grandma Fu.
"Grandma." Feng Yu greeted sweetly.
Grandma Fu nodded with a smile. Her slightly tired eyes were fixed on the young ladies performing on the stage.
The banquet was held once every three years, and she had watched countless such shows. She was already tired of these talent shows of the famous young ladies.
"Grandma, are you tired?" Feng Yu asked attentively.
Fu Liangshen glanced at her and said disdainfully, "Heh, these talent shows are the same every year. Grandma is naturally bored of them."
"It's okay." Grandma Fu still sat there majestically.
"I heard that the young mistress of the Fu family is a big star. She must have some special talent shows, right?"
A young lady from an unknown family shouted. Immediately, countless pairs of eyes in the surroundings focused on Feng Yu again.
Feng Yaying felt that her chance had come. She pinched her throat and changed her voice, shouting in the crowd, "Haven't you heard? This Feng Yu was originally just the third young lady of the Feng family. She never even went to school. What talent can she have? What 'Queen of Hot Searches'? Isn't it just because of her good - looking face?"
"Yeah, I heard that she's inferior and withdrawn. She doesn't like going out and hasn't stepped out of her home for ten years. How can such a person have any talent?"
"Inferior and withdrawn? The Feng Yu just now wasn't like that! And in today's entertainment industry, it's not just about having a good - looking face to become popular!"
"Popular? Didn't she just become popular by forming the 'Yu Lu CP' with Actor Lu? A pure newbie with no real strength! If she has any talent, I'll wash my hair upside - down!"
People were talking animatedly.
"Really? I heard that sister - in - law is both virtuous and talented. Sister - in - law, you should go up and perform. You can't let these rumors become true." Fu Liangshen refuted on the spot, looking as if he was standing up for his own family member.
Oh.
Feng Yu could only force a embarrassed smile.
This eldest young master of the Fu family seemed to be standing up for her on the surface, but in fact, he was forcing her to go on stage, just wanting to see her make a fool of herself.
If it were just ordinary people making a ruckus, she could easily find an excuse to decline the performance. But now that the eldest young master of the Fu family had spoken, if she didn't go up, it would be like admitting these rumors.
It would mean admitting that all her popularity was due to riding on Actor Lu's coattails, thus attracting a lot of hatred from Actor Lu's fans. It would also mean admitting that she was inferior, withdrawn, and completely incompetent.
Grandma Fu pulled a long face. Her expression was rather ugly.
Before Feng Yu married into the Fu family, she had also learned about Feng Yu's background.
She really hadn't been to school, so it was unrealistic to expect her to have any talent. If she went up to perform, it would only bring disgrace to the Fu family.
No, she couldn't let Feng Yu go on stage to perform.
People could tell what Grandma Fu was thinking. Suddenly, someone shouted, "Grandma Fu, you can't be partial! Since the eldest young master of the Fu family praises the young mistress so much, the young mistress should go up and show us her skills."
