Chapter 15: It means I have a connection with Mr. Lu
"He's not the right one for you."
When Lu Tingzhou said this, he clenched his fists and the veins on the back of his hands bulged.
Seeing that Lu Tingzhou had guessed her goal, Sang Wan smiled and said, "Of course it's not suitable. A woman three years older than her husband is always a treasure. He seems to treat me better than my stepsister. This can not only solve the money problem, but also make my stepsister mad. This is a good thing to kill two birds with one stone."
Lu Tingzhou sneered, his eyes gloomy, "My cousin's mother didn't become my aunt, and now you want to be my niece's wife. Aren't you descending a little too quickly?"
Facing his sarcasm, Sang Wan curled her lips and said, "This shows that Mr. Lu and I are destined to be together. I can't avoid the people around you."
Lin Hao felt that the atmosphere behind him was not right. The car slowly stopped at the destination and he whispered, "Miss Sang, we're here."
Sang Wan's final attempt ended in failure. She always felt that Lu Tingzhou cared about her last night.
Otherwise, how could she take advantage of the situation and appear in time when she was in crisis?
But now it seems that maybe she was just being too sentimental and he really didn't like her.
Alas, my love at first sight has ended here.
Sang Wan observed a three-second silence for her first heartbeat, then pushed the door and got out of the car.
"Thank you, Mr. Lu, for sending me back. I'm sorry for causing you any trouble."
Lu Tingzhou didn't say anything and didn't respond.
Sang Wan felt sour in her heart when she saw the man's cold attitude.
The first time I fell in love with a man, it ended so hastily and briefly.
It was not until she left that Lu Tingzhou turned around to look at her. Her willow-like waist made her look thin and weak.
"What's going on with Wang Sheng?" Lu Tingzhou asked calmly.
"He went to the old house to see the eldest wife today, probably to ask for mercy."
"Tell Director Luo that Lu is planning to enter the film and television industry. We've invested in his drama."
Lin Hao was stunned. "Mr. Lu, we never planned to enter the film and television industry. Isn't this too sudden? Our drone project and Beidou navigation project..."
"It didn't exist before, but it exists now. The diversification of companies is a trend."
Lu Tingzhou's words were low but could not be refuted. Lin Hao frowned. Even heroes are tempted by beautiful women, and it seems that his boss Lu is no exception.
But why is he so awkward? He obviously likes her, but he pretends to be indifferent.
"Mr. Lu, Miss Sang has gone far away. Are you going home?"
Lu Tingzhou had been staring at Sang Wan's back. Now she had entered the residential complex and her figure disappeared.
If he doesn't go home, where else can he go back to? This is the place closest to her.
Sang Wan took a shower after returning home and was just about to put on a facial mask when Lu Jinxuan sent her a message.
Lu Jinxuan: Miss Sang, are you free tomorrow at noon? The director suggested we have a meal together and have a casual chat.
Sang Wan: Yes [a smiley face emoticon]
Sang Wan put down her phone and tapped the screen lightly with her fingertips.
Then he sent a message to Xu Mingyue, saying how could he miss such a good opportunity.
As a result, the other party replied immediately: Sang Wan, you bitch, you dare to seduce Mr. Lu, your father will not let you go.
Thinking of Xu Mingyue's carefully made-up face, which would be distorted with anger, a faint smile appeared at the corners of her lips uncontrollably.
That smile carried a hint of childish pleasure of revenge, shallow but bright.
Then she picked up her phone and sent messages to her agent Bai Wei and assistant Qi Qi respectively.
After sending the message, she poured herself a glass of wine and walked to the balcony, which was what she always did before going to bed.
She has suffered from severe insomnia since her mother passed away. It has improved a lot in the past year, but she still has to drink two glasses of wine before going to bed and only when she is slightly tipsy can she fall asleep smoothly.
The night breeze was cool, rippling her silk nightgown and creating ripples that, under the light, looked like ripples on the water.
Sang Wan lifted her hair that was messed up by the wind and took a sip of wine.
Every time she looked at the lights of thousands of homes not far away, she always thought to herself, how nice it would be if her mother were still alive.
Her home is still warm and she is still that carefree little girl.
Sang Wan was leaning against the railing, holding a wine glass. Her burgundy silk pajamas clung to her body, showing off her curves. She looked delicate, graceful, and charming.
Every move at this moment was seen by the man standing opposite.
But she didn't notice at all.
Sang Wan has lived here for two years. During these two years, there has been no one across the street, and she has long forgotten what happened the night before.
I thought to myself, if the script is okay, it would be fine to take it.
Firstly, being able to have more open contact with Lu Jinxuan would surely make Xu Shiming and Lin Lan furious, and Xu Mingyue would be even more unable to sleep or eat.
Just thinking of their aggrieved and helpless faces, Sang Wan felt a lot better.
Secondly, the male lead of this drama is Zhuo Fan. If they were to work together again, his popularity should still be there.
What's more, Zhuo Fan is a well-known young actor in the circle. With him around, the ratings are basically half guaranteed.
For me, it is always a good opportunity.
only……
When he thought of money, Sang Wan frowned again.
Three hundred million.
If Lu Tingzhou refuses to give in to the tough problem, how will she fill the astronomical hole left by Xu Shiming?
Do I really have to watch my grandfather's life's work fall into the hands of that villain Wang Sheng in such an unclear way?
She took a deep breath, took a sip of wine, and her eyes accidentally swept across.
Someone.
Only then did I remember that there was a man like this the night before yesterday, with a tall figure standing quietly.
Could it be that the owner of the house opposite has returned?
He was lowering his head slightly and lighting a cigarette with his hands.
The orange-red flame suddenly lit up in the dark night and then went out.
I couldn't see the man's face clearly, but his back was lonely and cold, yet inexplicably revealed a sense of indescribable vicissitudes.
It seems like I have a lot of worries on my mind, but no one to talk to.
Sang Wan's gaze was involuntarily drawn to that figure.
As if noticing her gaze, the man turned to face her, the spark in his hand flickering between his fingers.
The other person's turning around made Sang Wan feel a little embarrassed, and he quickly looked away. He didn't know if the other person saw him looking at him, so he turned around.
But neither of them left, they just stood there, and Sang Wan's eyes involuntarily focused on the back of the man opposite her again.
After a few seconds, the man raised his hand and put out the cigarette.
Then, without any hesitation, he turned around and went back to the house. His movements were quick and decisive, without a trace of dragging his feet.
He didn't even glance in her direction.
That figure was inexplicably familiar, and Sang Wan's heart skipped a beat.
Without any warning, Lu Tingzhou's cold and ascetic face appeared clearly in his mind.
And... yesterday in the hotel, he had that refreshing and pleasant scent of cedar.
The deep eyes and tightly pursed thin lips reminded her of the cool touch.
Sang Wan suddenly felt her cheeks getting hot.
Why did you think of him?
I am crazy.
Sang Wan, ah Sang Wan, your love at first sight has come to an end, nipped in the bud by that unromantic man.
She patted her forehead, but the corners of her lips unconsciously raised a very shallow arc.
In that arc, there was a sweetness that she herself had not noticed, and a hint of anticipation and reluctance that even she herself was unwilling to admit.
The next day.
Bai Wei and Qi Qi came together to pick up Sang Wan. Bai Wei was not optimistic about what Sang Wan was going to do.
"Wanwan, Director Zhang from Lu Jinxuan's company doesn't have any decent works on hand. Although there's Zhuo Fan, he only took the job because of Lu Jinxuan's face. The production team is a bit weak."
Bai Wei said as she looked through Director Zhang's information.
"You are currently in your rising stage, so be careful when accepting roles. I am still trying to help you secure the second female lead role in Luo Zheng's big production, 'The Storm'. Although Director Luo hasn't agreed to meet us yet, there is still a chance."
Director Luo Zheng is a leading figure in the industry. His plays can give actors a golden glow, even if they are just the second female lead.
Sang Wan just smiled faintly, with a hint of laziness between her eyebrows.
"Sister Wei, just go with the flow."
She leaned back in her chair, her voice soft, "Besides, I went there this time... with some other purpose, not to mention Zhuo Fan. With him around, even if I pounce, it won't be too ugly."
Bai Wei was unwilling to accept the news, but she didn't say anything more. She thought she would read the script first.
She knew Sang Wan too well. Although this girl looked delicate and gentle, she was actually very opinionated.
The car quickly arrived at the agreed restaurant.
Lu Jinxuan was waiting at the door early, dressed casually and his hair seemed carefully groomed. When he saw Sang Wan getting out of the car, his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Miss Sang, please!"
He walked briskly and had a warm smile on his face, but he also looked a little nervous.
There was undisguised joy sparkling in those clear eyes.
Sang Wan looked at him, a young boy who was just beginning to fall in love, and felt a sense of guilt for some reason.
After all, she did intend to use him this time.
"Sorry to have kept Mr. Lu waiting for so long."
Sang Wan is gentle and has a nice smile.
Just as they were about to walk into the restaurant, a few people came out towards them.
The one in the lead, dressed in a suit and tie, walking steadily, was Lu Tingzhou's special assistant, Lin Hao.
Sang Wan paused slightly. She had a good impression of this Special Assistant Lin. He was a steady man and didn't talk much.
As expected of someone brought up by Lu Tingzhou, he is very much on the same wavelength as him.
Lin Hao obviously saw them as well. His eyes flickered between Sang Wan and Lu Jinxuan before he nodded politely, "Miss Sang, Mr. Lu."
Sang Wan nodded slightly and smiled back.
Lu Jinxuan seemed a little embarrassed. After all, Lin Hao was someone close to Lu Tingzhou and represented his unfathomable uncle.
"Assistant Lin, is my uncle here too?"
Lin Hao glanced at Sang Wan and said politely, "Mr. Lu is at the company. I came out to meet a friend and didn't want to disturb Mr. Lu."
We simply said hello and passed each other.
At this moment, Bai Wei's cell phone suddenly rang.
She walked aside to answer the phone, and Sang Wan followed Lu Jinxuan to the private room.
Sang Wan and Lu Jinxuan had just sat down when Bai Wei followed in, with a look of surprise and confusion on her face.
"Ms. Sang, I really didn't expect you to be interested in our play."
Director Zhang was a little excited. Their company had just been established and they had no works yet. He didn't expect that an actress of Sang Wan's status would be willing to cooperate.
Of course, the Lu family and Zhuo Fan must be responsible for this.
"Director Zhang, you're welcome. If we can cooperate, please give us more advice."
Bai Wei nodded slightly in response, but her heart was like a roller coaster, struggling with how to politely decline. After all, the leading actress on Director Luo's side had a completely different weight.
Big production, well-known team, how can it be the same?
"Ms. Sang, Agent Bai, I'm so sorry."
Director Zhang said apologetically, "I really hope to work with Ms. Sang. Both her appearance and acting skills are perfect for the role in my script. It's just...it's just that I still have some problems with the project preparations, and the script needs further polishing, so it's not quite mature yet."
Bai Wei blinked to hide her emotions.
