Chapter 39: Honest and aboveboard
"Brother Yun Ting..."
Chi Xuan looked at the two of them in disbelief. She didn't expect Huo Yunting to hug Chi Muzhen like this in broad daylight.
Even when they were in love, he had never hugged her like this.
In an instant, the jealousy in my heart almost overwhelmed me.
Huo Yunting obviously didn't expect Chi Xuan to appear here, and subconsciously put Chi Muzhen down.
Chi Muzhen's eyes flashed with sarcasm, and he walked into the elevator and said, "You guys can chat slowly, I won't disturb you from talking about love."
She closed the elevator door directly, blocking out Huo Yunting's angry gaze.
However, after the elevator started running, Chi Muzhen suddenly realized a problem. The room card and her ID card were in Huo Yunting's hands. She had no way of entering the room, but it was impossible for her to go back to find Huo Yunting now.
She pressed the 20th floor. If she remembered correctly, there was an indoor swimming pool on the 20th floor and a restaurant next to it. It would be nice to find a restaurant to eat something and rest for a while.
When he reached the 20th floor, Chi Muzhen just found a restaurant to sit down when he met Shi Yiheng.
"Mu Zhen, why are you here?"
Chi Muzhen smiled and said, "I'm coming over to play on the weekend, how about you?"
"A few scenes of my new movie are being filmed here. I came here to shoot. I just arrived today and I didn't expect to meet you."
Chi Muzhen nodded, "Then I won't disturb you from filming, you can go and get busy."
"Not really. We're not going to start filming until tomorrow. I just finished meeting with the director and other actors."
"Oh, how long are you planning to stay here?"
"Probably more than a week. By the way, do you remember that you said you were going to treat me to a meal?"
Hearing this, Chi Muzhen's eyes flashed with surprise, and he raised his eyebrows and said, "You should have eaten when you met with the director just now, right? Can you still eat?"
Shi Yiheng sat down opposite her and said helplessly, "You know that when you eat with the director, you basically just chat and don't have a chance to pick up your chopsticks. I only took a few bites."
Chi Muzhen couldn't help laughing and handed him the menu. "Then take a look at what you want to eat! Just order whatever you want!"
"Then I won't be polite."
After they ordered their dishes, Shi Yiheng poured Chi Muzhen a glass of water and looked at her and asked, "Are you here alone?"
Chi Muzhen shook her head, "No, with my husband."
"Mr. Huo?!"
A hint of disappointment flashed across Shi Yiheng's eyes, and his voice lowered a bit, "Have you two reconciled?"
For some reason, Chi Muzhen suddenly remembered what Huo Yunting had said before: Shi Yiheng liked her.
Her hand holding the teacup tightened unconsciously, and then she secretly felt that she was overthinking. She had been Shi Yiheng's behind-the-scenes agent for more than a year. If he really liked her, he would not have waited until she got married and still said nothing.
Thinking of this, she looked at Shi Yiheng and said, "No, it's just a facade now."
After a moment of silence, Shi Yiheng suddenly said, "If you need a divorce lawyer, I can introduce one to you."
As soon as he finished speaking, a cold voice sounded behind him.
"This is a matter between me and Chi Muzhen, so don't bother Mr. Shi with worrying about it!"
Shi Yiheng turned around and saw Huo Yunting walking towards him with a cold expression.
There was a hint of danger in his eyes, and he looked at Huo Yunting without fear.
Their eyes met in the air, sparks flew, and the smell of gunpowder was very strong.
Chi Muzhen frowned and looked at Huo Yunting coldly, without a trace of warmth in his eyes.
Huo Yunting was filled with anger. He was away for a short while and she had dinner with another man. If she had come later, he might have been cuckolded!
He walked over to Chi Muzhen and sat down, looking at Shi Yiheng opposite him with a sneer.
Shi Yiheng was not to be outdone and said with a smile, "Boss Huo, Mu Zhen's affairs are my affairs. As long as she needs me, I can lend a hand at any time."
Huo Yunting looked at him coldly, "I didn't expect Mr. Shi to be so enthusiastic and want to meddle in other people's family affairs. But I advise you to think more about how to improve your acting skills when you have time, and don't meddle in other people's business!"
"It's not Mr. Huo's turn to worry about my acting skills."
The two looked at each other, neither willing to give in.
Sensing the gunpowder in the air, Chi Muzhen frowned and looked at Huo Yunting, "Mr. Huo, if you're here to cause trouble, you can leave now."
Huo Yunting's anger instantly reached its peak. He gritted his teeth and said, "Chi Muzhen, this pretty boy is trying to sow discord between us in front of you. Who is looking for trouble?!"
Chi Muzhen's eyes were cold. "First, Shi Yiheng is not a gigolo, he is my friend. Please respect him. Second, we don't need others to sow discord between us. You and I both know the truth."
Huo Yunting laughed in anger, grabbed Chi Muzhen's hand and walked out.
When passing by Shi Yiheng, he suddenly grabbed Chi Muzhen's other hand.
"Mr. Huo, Mu Zhen almost fell down. Didn't you see it?"
Seeing Huo Yunting treat Chi Muzhen like this, Shi Yiheng felt angry. This is the man she chose after giving up all her work?!
If she were with him, he would not let her suffer any grievance or harm, instead of not caring about her feelings at all!
Huo Yunting turned around and saw Shi Yiheng holding Chi Muzhen's hand. His pupils suddenly shrank, and his eyes seemed to be frozen for a thousand years, cold to the bone.
"Let go, if you still want your hand!"
Shi Yiheng was not intimidated by the coldness in his eyes at all, and said word by word: "It's you who should be let go!"
The two of them faced each other coldly, and soon attracted the attention of the people around them.
Chi Muzhen felt a little headache. She just wanted to have a quiet meal, but she didn't expect it to turn out like this.
She was silent for a few seconds, shook off their hands, turned around and walked out of the restaurant quickly.
As soon as he reached the elevator, Huo Yunting caught up with him.
"Chi Muzhen, it seems you really don't have a good memory. If I don't teach you a lesson, you won't learn your lesson!"
He took out his phone and called Ke Ning directly, "Go check what TV dramas Shi Yiheng has coming out or signed recently, immediately..."
Before he could finish his words, his phone was suddenly snatched away.
Chi Muzhen hung up the phone neatly and sneered, "Huo Yunting, is this the only despicable method you can use?"
Huo Yunting exuded a chilling aura as he spoke expressionlessly, "Do you think this will stop me from dealing with Shi Yiheng? Unless you keep an eye on me 24 hours a day, I'll always have a chance to make him disappear from the entertainment industry!"
Chi Muzhen frowned and was about to speak when Shi Yiheng's cold voice sounded behind him.
"Mu Zhen, don't worry about this matter. I also want to see how Mr. Huo is going to make me disappear!"
Chi Muzhen turned to look at Shi Yiheng and whispered, "This is a matter between him and me. I don't want to involve you and implicate you."
Huo Yunting was obviously taking his anger out on Shi Yiheng. Shi Yiheng had worked hard for so many years to get to this position, and she didn't want everything to be ruined because of her.
Shi Yiheng smiled and said, "I'm not afraid, and I don't believe that Mr. Huo can really cover the sky with one hand."
Huo Yunting sneered, "You can try!"
