Tan Ziting pulled a woman and hid in the coffee shop's storage room.
He asked the woman in a soft and gentle voice, "Baby, what are you doing here?"
The woman shook off Tan Ziting's hand with a hint of resentment, and then angrily replied,
"Don't drag me away so rashly, okay? Dressed like that, my friends will think I've been kidnapped."
Tan Ziting hugged the woman tightly, burying his head in her shoulder, and then replied with some guilt,
"I'm so sorry, honey, I was just a little excited to see you. Were you shopping here with that friend?"
The woman pushed Tan Ziting away with some disgust. "Yeah. You asked me, but you didn't tell me why you came here today, and how you dared to go out?"
Tan Ziting lowered his head weakly, and tentatively reached out to take the woman's hand.
"Do you remember the person who sent me anonymous emails and made anonymous phone calls before? He called me again yesterday, saying that Ming Jiayi had left the film set and asked me to follow her."
The woman looked at Tan Ziting strangely. "So many months have passed and he hasn't made a move. I thought he had been arrested."
“No, honey, he just hasn’t contacted me. Didn’t you say we could flatter Ming Jiayi to death? I made that suggestion to that person, but he said we couldn’t do that.”
"Why can't we do it this way? Are you listening to him or me? I thought he was going to mess with Ming Jiayi, which is why I wasted so much time because of him. Now he says he's not going to do it anymore?"
Tan Ziting looked down at his hand.
They weren't left behind.
Very good.
"Honey, of course I'll listen to you. But have you forgotten? He said he'd give me a lot of money."
Think about it, once the money he gives me arrives, we can live whatever life we want. It's not too late to get involved with Ming Jiayi then.
The woman was getting impatient.
"How can you be so spineless? The money he gives you is only temporary, but if we get to Ming Jiayi, we'll truly have endless wealth and luxury for the rest of our lives."
Tan Ziting looked at the woman with a pitiful expression, "Can't we seize this opportunity to make a little money first? We can talk about making big money later."
The woman wasn't buying it; she replied somewhat angrily,
"I don't want to. If he refuses to deal with Ming Jiayi, then we shouldn't cooperate with him anymore. If you insist on cooperating with him, then we're breaking up!"
Tan Ziting's face was somewhat pale. He held the woman's hand and shook it back and forth.
"Okay, okay, don't be angry, I promise you. If he's not willing to deal with Ming Jiayi, I won't cooperate with him."
The woman looked at Tan Ziting with an arrogant expression and casually replied, "Okay, that's more like it."
...
Ming Jiayi and Gu Shaojin quickly entered the coffee shop together.
Ming Jiayi first scanned the coffee shop, but she did not see Tan Ziting.
Most of the people who come to this coffee shop are from the Gu Group, so they are not surprised or delighted to see Ming Jiayi and Gu Shaojin walk into the coffee shop together.
Instead, I saw more fear in the boss.
They all tacitly walked to the door, greeted Gu Shaojin and Ming Jiayi, and then slunk back to the company.
Suddenly, the coffee shop was empty.
Not far away, a woman had just come out of the storage room.
The moment she saw Ming Jiayi and Gu Shaojin, she quickly pushed Tan Ziting back into the storage room.
"Ming Jiayi is here! You'd better hide!"
With his sharp eyes, Gu Shaojin noticed some movement in the storage room, so he strode quickly toward it.
Ming Jiayi quickly followed.
But the closer she got to the storage room, the more puzzled she became.
The woman closed the storage room door, then immediately put on a smiling face and greeted Ming Jiayi and Gu Shaojin warmly.
"President Gu, Jiayi! Long time no see! What are you doing here?"
Ming Jiayi smiled slightly, "Pingping? Shouldn't you be in school at this time? What are you doing here?"
Gu Shaojin raised her eyes and glanced at Zhan Pingping's hand.
Her hand was gripping the storage room door tightly.
Zhan Pingping glanced at Gu Shaojin, then somewhat guiltily released her hands.
She took a few steps forward, stood next to Ming Jiayi, and very naturally took Ming Jiayi's hand.
"It's my birthday today, so my friend brought me here to have fun. She said she wanted to broaden my horizons."
"What a coincidence to see you and Mr. Gu here! Did you just finish filming yesterday and then come out shopping with Mr. Gu today?"
Gu Shaojin glanced sideways at Zhan Pingping's pig's paw, then took two steps forward, reached out and turned the door of the storage room, looking into the dark and tiny room.
There was nothing there except the box...
Gu Shaojin reached out and turned on the light in the storage room, then walked around inside.
Still nothing found...
Seeing Gu Shaojin turn and walk out again, Ming Jiayi smiled and started chatting with Zhan Pingping.
"It's your birthday? Where are your friends?"
Zhan Pingping looked around.
Her friend really has disappeared...
"Hey, that's weird...where did they go?"
"When did you get here? How did you end up coming out of that little house?" Ming Jiayi asked tentatively.
Zhan Pingping released her hand from Ming Jiayi's and said with a shy smile,
"I've been here for quite a while. I'm a little embarrassed... actually, I was looking for the restroom... I thought this storage room was the restroom..."
Gu Shaojin glanced at Zhan Pingping warily, not believing her words at all.
"Did you see anyone dressed strangely just now?" Ming Jiayi asked.
Zhan Pingping scratched his head and answered somewhat uncertainly.
"I just saw a person dressed all in black, wearing a hat and sunglasses. I don't know if that's considered strange."
When I saw him, I thought he was some kind of celebrity.
Ming Jiayi and Gu Shaojin exchanged a glance, then asked, "Which way did he go?"
Zhan Pingping looked at Ming Jiayi somewhat guiltily, "I don't know either. I came to find the restroom, and I don't know where my friend is..."
Ming Jiayi smiled, quickly said goodbye to Zhan Pingping, and then walked out of the coffee shop with Gu Shaojin.
The two pretended to walk from Gu Shaojin's company, and when Zhan Pingping was no longer watching them, Gu Shaojin pulled Ming Jiayi back to the blind spot at the entrance of the coffee shop.
