Chapter 159 My sister is forty-eight years old this year

Now it depends on what Bo Sinian does.

"I understand, you can go back now."

Bo Sinian didn't say whether he wanted to do it or not, he just said that he knew about it.

Sheng Siwan knew that there was no point in saying anything more at this point, so she nodded and got up to leave.

Based on her understanding of Bo Sinian, she knew he would definitely intervene.

Then I'll put pressure on Lu Wanxing from above, so that even if she doesn't want to act, she'll have to.

The misunderstanding between the two will only deepen...

After the other person left, Bo Sinian started calling to inquire about the matter and learned that the company had indeed received a call from Director Zhang.

They also intend to cast Lu Wanxing in the role of the second female lead.

More importantly, Lu Wanxing seems to really like this role.

Then what Sheng Siwan said earlier was correct.

He immediately called Fan Gang...

Lu Wanxing was unaware that a well-meaning person was doing something bad behind her back.

She was at home playing with her grandfather when her phone rang.

A person you thought would never call you.

I stared at the unfamiliar but memorized number on my phone for a long time before finally answering it just before hanging up.

"Hello? What brings you here to call me?"

"I'm back in China, so I have to treat our big star to dinner, right?"

A cheerful female voice came from the other end of the phone.

Despite her helplessness, Lu Wanxing couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth.

"Sure, but I'm quite expensive now, you can't afford to treat me to a regular meal!"

"Okay, then let's have a private kitchen. I'll wait for you here."

Lu Wanxing then realized something was wrong.

"No, you really went back to China?"

"Yes, I'm in Kyoto. I just got back and a patient came to consult me. I called you right after I finished."

Lu Wanxing immediately stood up in surprise.

He chuckled a few times and said, "Okay, I'll set off right away. By the way, do you mind if I bring my cousin along?"

The person on the other end was also curious about when Lu Wanxing had a cousin, but it was hard to explain over the phone, so they immediately said, "Okay, see you in a bit."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Wanxing immediately went to find Lin Qiao.

"Come on, let me take you to eat."

After they finished getting ready, the two of them drove off in a sports car.

This sports car still belongs to my third cousin.

Very flashy.

Driving it on the road, it gets almost 200% of people turning their heads to look at it.

"Why did you suddenly take me out?" Lin Qiao asked after getting into the car in a daze.

Lu Wanxing chuckled as she drove, "You're only asking me now? Aren't you afraid I'll sell you off?"

"Hehe, how could I? I'm still your cousin, how could you do this to me?"

Lin Qiao said playfully.

But I was genuinely curious.

Why did Lu Wanxing suddenly take me out to eat?

“My friend came back from abroad and said he wanted to meet me, a big star. I can’t be without my assistant, otherwise I’ll lose face.”

"So I'm just here to save face, huh!"

Lin Qiao glared at Lu Wanxing, who was driving, with annoyance.

Then he saw the other person raise an eyebrow at him, the meaning in their eyes was very clear.

The two chatted and joked all the way until they arrived at the entrance of an antique courtyard.

"Not bad! You actually managed to find this place."

Lin Qiao looked at the gate outside, which resembled the mansion of an ancient nobleman.

The place is grand and imposing, and the fact that it even has a dining area instantly adds a lot of class to the restaurant.

"Yes, this is a private kitchen, not many people know about it. We've been eating here all the time."

Lu Wanxing explained.

The person had already grabbed their bag and gotten off the bus first.

Lin Qiao followed closely behind.

The two then entered the private restaurant.

There was a waiter waiting at the entrance. Lu Wanxing was allowed to enter after showing her identification.

Lin Qiao watched in amazement.

"I had no idea such a great place existed. Looks like I'm only here because of you."

She laughed and linked arms with Lu Wanxing.

"That's right, you'll know whether this trip was worth it once you eat what's inside."

As the two chatted and laughed, Lu Wanxing led the person into a private room.

Inside, there are pavilions, towers, bridges, and flowing water; stepping inside feels like entering an ancient courtyard.

Some pools had white mist rising from them, making them look like a fairyland.

To get to the private room, she had to cross an arched bridge, and the area was enveloped in a misty, ethereal atmosphere.

It has a kind of hazy beauty.

This place is probably best described as having a beautiful view at every turn.

As you get closer, you can almost smell a faint fragrance of flowers and grass, which is refreshing and pleasant.

After the two went inside and opened the door, Lu Wanxing was immediately given a bear hug.

"haven't seen you for a long time!"

It was still his cheerful voice.

Lu Wanxing knew who it was as soon as she heard it, and chuckled as she hugged the person back.

"Long time no see, Sister Ran!"

It's clear that the two are very familiar with each other.

However, Lin Qiao was indeed shocked by Lin Ran's appearance.

The reason is simple: Lin Ran is just too handsome.

If Lu Wanxing hadn't called her "Sister Ran" earlier, she might have thought he was a handsome guy.

But even though she was a beautiful woman, it didn't stop people from looking at her with starry eyes.

Her neat short hair, alluring and seductive peach blossom eyes, and the ambiguous aura of righteousness and evil about her made people's eyes light up.

Noticing her gaze, Lin Ran turned her head and glanced at her. That indifferent glance made Lin Qiao's heart pound.

If I hadn't been clear about my sexual orientation, I almost would have thought I was attracted to girls.

He's so handsome.

"Ran, hello Sister Ran."

Lin Qiao stammered as she followed Lu Wanxing in calling out for help.

Those innocent yet slightly naive eyes made Lin Ran burst out laughing.

"No way, big star, is this the cousin you were talking about on the phone? She seems even less intelligent than you?"

That disdainful tone and that expression made Lu Wanxing's teeth itch.

"Alright, alright, you've already insulted both of us the moment we met."

They immediately released the person.

Just moments ago it was a heartwarming scene of reunion after a long separation, but now they've turned on each other completely.

"Alright, alright, you might look a little dumber than me, but our stars are still quite clever, after all, you can flash..."

Lu Wanxing no longer wanted to pay attention to her teasing.

However, he still introduced them to the two of them.

"This is my cousin, Lin Qiao! This is my best friend, also surnamed Lin, with the given name Ran. She's a bit older, so you can just call her Sister Ran."

Lu Wanxing gave the two a brief introduction.

Sister Ran immediately retorted with dissatisfaction, "Just call me 'sister,' why say I'm a bit old? I'm only forty-eight this year, am I that old?"

Lin Qiao shook her head subconsciously.

She just looks a bit too young.

Seeing Lin Qiao's sweet and adorable appearance, Lin Ran couldn't help but go up and pinch her cheek.

"So cute! Your cousin looks younger than you!"

Lin Qiao looked at Lu Wanxing with a smile.

"Yes, I'm thirty-eight this year, aren't I getting old?"

Without any hesitation, he took a seat.
