The banquet organizers stepped forward and greeted Luo Yichen warmly, interrupting Jing Li's observation.
The other person was a foreign man who didn't speak Chinese very well. After saying hello, he started chatting with Luo Yichen in Spanish.
Jing Li listened quietly from the side. After hearing the man say that she was very handsome and had stolen the limelight from all the men present, she smiled and said thank you, and that she was handsome too.
Her pronunciation is very standard, clear and articulate, and combined with her unique voice, it's very pleasant to listen to.
Upon discovering that she spoke Spanish, the man immediately became excited and began to chat with her.
Luo Yichen raised an eyebrow, a hint of interest in his eyes.
After the organizers left, he looked at Jing Li meaningfully and asked, "You can actually speak Spanish?"
Jing Li smiled calmly, "I'm quite interested. I've studied it on my own when I have some free time."
Is it just self-taught?
Such a skillful tone could not be achieved without several years of practice.
Luo Yichen's gaze towards her held a more scrutinizing quality.
"Mr. Luo."
A steady male voice interrupted their tender moment.
The visitors were Cui Yu, Cui Xueling, and their harem.
"Hello, Ms. Jing, I am Ran Nian."
A handsome man, whose looks rivaled those of a beautiful woman, was the first to greet her, his eyes fixed on Jing Li with keen interest.
Jing Li then noticed this overly handsome and refined man.
The legendary second male lead!
Ran Nian is also very popular in the story because his character is a yandere.
Because of his childhood experiences, he doesn't fall in love easily. Once he falls completely in love, his possessiveness becomes very strong. He always wears a harmless smile on his face, but his heart is actually the darkest. He has plotted against his harem members countless times, both openly and secretly.
"Hello, nice to meet you."
Jing Li smiled faintly and reached out to greet him.
Unlike Xiao Qi, who was both disgusted and prickly towards her, this person didn't treat her with the same dislike. Since one doesn't hit a smiling face, she naturally wouldn't embarrass the other party.
It's always better to have one more friend than one more enemy, isn't it?
"This isn't our first meeting. We met at the company last time. Your expression was very vivid."
Ran Nianyi made a pointed remark.
His excessive enthusiasm for her set off alarm bells in Cui Xueling's mind. She winked playfully and hinted, "Ran Nian is a rare genius in the directing world. Ali, you should seize this opportunity."
Jing Li's lips curled into a mocking smile. "I thought actors were chosen based on their talent, not connections. After all, a genius like Mr. Ran would surely disdain using back channels?"
What kind of behavior is it to let her take the opportunity with another man in front of her male companion?
The implication that she wants to climb the social ladder is not too obvious.
"Hehe, Miss Jing thinks too highly of me. Actually, I'm just an ordinary person."
Ran Nian smiled happily.
As they talked, Cui Yu frowned slightly, his gaze fixed on Jing Li, so intense it was impossible to ignore.
Who is this?
Jing Li looked at Cui Yu and asked with a smile.
"This is my brother Cui Yu, and I won't allow you to harm him!"
Cui Xueling immediately took Cui Yu's hand protectively and 'warned' him in a joking tone.
“Not everyone can catch my eye, Miss Cui… I have a small appetite and am very picky about food, unlike you, who likes all kinds of vegetables and is open to all kinds of food.”
With a meaningful look at Xiao Qi and Ran Nian, and then glancing at Luo Yichen beside her, Jing Li retorted sarcastically without any politeness.
"Miss Jing, please have some self-respect!"
With a slight frown, Cui Yu issued a warning.
