Wen Yan patiently explained to Shen Jingxiu.
"He was the friend I met when I filmed my first movie, or more specifically, my first film. We met at the audition."
"He's very loyal. When people were badmouthing me online, he would stand up for me. After that movie was finished, I didn't get any other work, so he asked me to come along for a cameo role."
"Let's not talk about that time. Even now, he doesn't have much influence in the industry, but he still thinks of me as a friend whenever he has the chance, so we've always had a good relationship."
"I think it's quite rare to make true friends in this circle, so he and I both cherish our friendship."
"I didn't expect that rumors about my relationship with him would start circulating online again. I'm not going to say anything more. I need to call my assistant first, and then I'll talk to Wang Che."
Wen Yan meant she was going to hang up, and Shen Jingxiu understood.
He could understand that she needed to take care of her own affairs.
To be honest, Shen Jingxiu was still a little reluctant to hang up the phone. He seemed to have fallen in love with listening to her tell him everything.
Whether it's what she sees and hears on the road, things that make her laugh or things that make her angry; or the people or friends she meets at work.
He found everything she shared interesting.
Thinking of this, Shen Jingxiu suddenly felt a warmth in his heart.
It's just the end of a phone call; there's plenty of time in the future.
"Okay, then you go and take care of it first. Remember to send me a message when you get home, and I won't bother you anymore."
"Okay, bye-bye!"
"Okay, bye-bye." But before he could finish saying goodbye, Shen Jingxiu spoke again, "Wait a minute, don't hang up yet."
"What's wrong?" Wen Yan almost hung up the phone.
“It’s too late, and you’re alone. I’m still a little worried. There have been cases of accidents involving taxis late at night in previous years. Could you set up location sharing for me?”
"Huh?" Wen Yan chuckled. "It can't be that bad, can it?"
She lowered her voice, not wanting the driver to hear her conversation with Shen Jingxiu.
"This is the city center, and I should be there in about ten minutes."
"I know you're in the city and it's a short trip, so I'll only share the location for ten minutes, okay?"
“This…” Wen Yan was stunned for a moment. For some reason, she felt that Shen Jingxiu’s tone when he said this was a little strange, like he was… coaxing a child?
This isn't his usual style.
However, Wen Yan didn't spend too much time trying to decipher Shen Jingxiu's tone.
She immediately agreed to Shen Jingxiu's request: "Okay, I'll open it right away. So I'm really done for this time, right? Big brother, you don't have any other instructions, do you?"
Shen Jingxiu hummed in agreement: "There won't be any this time."
After hanging up the phone, Wen Yan immediately shared her real-time location with Shen Jingxiu.
Then she opened the chat group of Qin Yulong, herself, and her assistant.
Sure enough, He Xing tagged her in the chat group because of her affair with Wang Che.
Qin Yulong, as her agent, also gave direct instructions.
She tagged @WenYan: You don't need to worry about that. The photos and videos don't show any intimate actions, so it won't cause any big trouble.
Wen Yan @ Qin Yulong: Let me ask Wang Che first and see what he plans to do?
Qin Yulong: Okay.
After saying that, Wen Yan opened the chat window with Wang Che.
During Wen Yan's call with Shen Jingxiu, Wang Che also sent her many messages.
Wen Yan flipped to the top and began to read through the entries one by one from top to bottom.
Wang Che: As expected of you, my good looks! Just seeing an opera with you has landed you on the trending topics again, and I even got a piece of the action!
Wang Che: This picture is good; it captures a good atmosphere.
Wang Che: This is pretty good too. I have to say, this generation of netizens really has some skill in taking photos. They're much better than me, and I should learn from them.
Wang Che: I really didn't expect that the two of us would have CP fans. They really ship everything!
Wang Che: Holy crap, you definitely don't know what just happened. I'm fucking devastated. My manager actually wanted me to ride on your coattails and post something that followed Gu Xiran's path.
Wang Che: Yan, my dear Yan Yan, where have you been? Why haven't you replied for so long? Did your phone get stolen?
Having just scrolled to the last message, Wen Yan immediately replied to Wang Che.
"Can't you wish me well for once? My phone is perfectly fine; it wasn't stolen. I just spoke to my family on the phone. Are you available to take a call now? Your manager isn't with you, is he?"
He's not home; I'm in my own little nest right now. Have you gotten home yet? You should be home by now.
"No, I'm still in the car. I'll be there in a few minutes. I'll call you when I get back; my battery's almost dead."
After getting home and charging her phone, Wen Yan immediately dialed Wang Che's number.
Wang Che answered immediately: "You're pretty quick, you just got home, right?"
"Well, what do you think? I called you as soon as I plugged my phone in, isn't that nice of me? What did you just say your manager was doing to you?"
"Hmph, ignore him, I've already rejected him. He's crazy to ask me to create a CP (couple pairing) with you. Isn't that just profiting from your misfortune? I, Wang Che, would never betray a friend like that! Because I'm afraid you'll assassinate me."
"Hahaha," Wang Che's last sentence made Wen Yan burst out laughing. She joked, "You're smart. If you really dare to betray me, I might actually put a bounty on your head, so you better watch out, hahaha."
