During the meal, Su Miao kept looking at Huo Yanting, hesitant to speak. As she looked, dinner ended, but Su Miao still couldn't utter a single word.
Huo Yanting could tell that she had something to say, but she didn't say it, and he didn't ask.
Knowing that Huo Yanting was going upstairs to his study after dinner, Su Miao couldn't help but tug at his sleeve and whisper, "Huo Yanting..."
Huo Yanting turned his head and looked at Su Miao.
"I...I have something to tell you."
"Speak."
"If...if I did something to hurt you, would you...forgive me?" Su Miao looked at Huo Yanting cautiously, carefully observing the changes in his expression.
She noticed that Huo Yanting's face remained expressionless upon hearing this; instead, he chuckled lightly, "You did something to hurt me? Could it be that you've taken a fancy to another man?"
"Of course not!" Su Miao immediately retorted. What did this have to do with her having taken a liking to another man? Besides, she didn't have one.
"That's settled then. Since you haven't set your sights on any other man, what could you possibly do to hurt me? Don't overthink it. As long as you don't cross my bottom line, I'll tolerate you!" Huo Yanting said arrogantly.
Su Miao stared blankly at Huo Yanting's retreating figure as he went upstairs. As long as she didn't find another man, it wouldn't count as hurting him. Besides, no matter what she did, he would indulge her.
Huo Yanting, do you... keep your word?
If that happens, will you let me leave?
But... I don't want to leave you anymore!
...
The banquet hosted by the Huo Group was naturally very grand. Although no executives from other companies were invited, several titans of the film and television industry were invited to congratulate Huo's film and television development on its success.
They had all watched the trailer for "The First Abandoned Concubine" and thought it was pretty good. They believed that the ratings would definitely break previous records for TV dramas.
These words made the actors and director of the crew happy for quite a while.
Fu Mushan also came today. She was wearing a very high-end and expensive dress, which she had asked the Fu family to pay for. She told them that she was attending a banquet hosted by the Huo Group.
Who wouldn't want to establish even the slightest connection with the Huo family? So when Fu Mushan presented the invitation from the Huo Group, the Fu family members were all overjoyed, and they were willing to spare no expense to provide Fu Mushan with a complete outfit.
As soon as Fu Mushan appeared, her bright and beautiful dress attracted a lot of attention.
Some people laughed dismissively, "A mere screenwriter dressed so conspicuously, is she afraid people won't know who she is?"
"This is a bit like overstepping one's bounds. Today is a big day for the Huo family. How dare a mere screenwriter act so presumptuously?"
"Exactly! Even if it weren't the Huo family, Meng Qianwei is the main character, but she didn't show off like that!"
"This woman has absolutely no manners!"
"..."
Fu Mushan had no idea how others were evaluating her; she thought everyone was looking at her because they were captivated by her beauty!
She moved around the crowd like a proud peacock.
The crew members were sitting at a table, celebrating the wrap-up of filming for "The First Abandoned Concubine," and were extremely happy. Suddenly, Fu Mushan went over to join in the fun.
"Everyone's here? Director, Sister Qianwei, Brother Lin Ze, hello everyone." Fu Mushan greeted everyone with a smile.
The group froze. What was going on with Fu Mushan?
This was just a small get-together for their film crew; why did she come along to join in? Nobody paid her any attention!
