☆, Chapter 77 Knowing Her Identity
"Okay!" The young assistant responded, stepped one leg onto the carriage, stretched out his arm to put the plate on the table, and then hurried out.
Wen Mianyu saw him hastily slam the car door shut and run away like he was being chased by a wolf, and asked in confusion, "What happened to Xiaoxu?"
Lu Congxu glanced out the window and said, "Maybe he feels hot."
"It's so hot today that even someone like you who has an icy constitution can't feel cool." Wen Mianyu took a grape from the plate and put it into his mouth.
Lu Congxu touched his wrist with the back of his hand and it was indeed not as cold as usual.
He has a cold constitution, and his skin is slightly cool even in summer, unlike Wen Mianyu who is always warm.
"Eat grapes." Wen Mianyu took another grape and put it to his mouth.
Lu Congxu took it subconsciously, then felt a little uncomfortable, pursed his lips and swallowed the grape.
"Well, the big black grapes are still the best." Wen Mianyu narrowed his eyes.
The slightly cool smoothie slid down his throat, bringing a hint of coolness. Looking at the person in front of him with a satisfied smile, Lu Congxu also curled up the corners of his lips.
The two finished half a plate of grapes in the car and returned to the set together.
"Where is Ye Qianan?" Wen Mianyu asked Director Lin when she found that Ye Qianan was not sitting in his previous seat.
"Qian'an..." Director Lin glanced at Lu Congxu, who was being touched up by a makeup artist not far away, and lowered his voice, "The reporters came early, so he went back to the interview."
"Oh." Wen Mianyu sneered in his heart. He ate the blood-soaked buns quite diligently.
…
After Lu Congxu regained his form, the filming went smoothly and they finished work early at five o'clock in the evening.
In order to welcome Ye Qianan, Director Lin booked a private room in a restaurant on the island and invited all the main crew members over for a lively dinner.
Wen Mianyu drank some wine during the meal, took a shower after returning home, and then went to Lu Congxu's room to find him.
As a result, when she passed by the next room, she heard Ye Qianan's voice coming from inside.
"Mr. Lu is still as aloof as ever, haha..."
Wen Mianyu paused in front of the door.
Ye Qianan's door was not closed tightly, but half-open, leaving a gap as wide as a palm. Wen Mianyu could see what was going on inside through the gap.
Ye Qianan was seen sitting on the sofa, his arms lazily resting on the armrests, with a half-smile on his face.
Lu Congxu stood not far from the door, with his back to Wen Mianyu, and his expression could not be seen.
"But I don't understand. Is Mr. Lu coming to me now because he is really noble? Or is he jealous of me?" Ye Qianan spoke again, his tone full of sarcasm.
Wen Mianyu saw Lu Congxu standing there motionless, with no intention of responding.
Ye Qianan didn't seem to wait for his answer and continued, "I'm accepting this interview today because, as Mian Yu's fiancé, I want to talk to someone about my memories and longing for her, whether it's the media or my friends. This is my legitimate right. So..."
He paused at the perfect moment. "Emperor Lu, what is your identity when you come to me to say these things? An ordinary friend of Mian Yu? You are righteously accusing me, but what qualifications do you think you have?"
"Are you really trying to stand up for Mian Yu, or are you jealous of me?"
"When Mianyu was alive, you were jealous of me for having her. After she died, you were jealous of my status. Since both of you had impure motives, what qualifications do you have to say this to me?"
…
Outside the door, Wen Mianyu was stunned.
She couldn't believe what she heard. Her heart was exploding and she couldn't calm down for a long time. She stared at Ye Qianan on the sofa.
But Ye Qianan's expression didn't show any sign of joking.
What made her heart sink even more was that Lu Congxu did not refute it.
The man had his back to her, his tall body standing straight as always, as if he was not moved by Ye Qianan's words, but his clenched fists at his sides revealed a hint of unrest in his heart.
Wen Mianyu didn't know how to react, and it took her a long time to digest this shocking information.
At this moment, Ye Qianan dropped another bombshell, "You like Mianyu, do you think I don't know? Mr. Lu thought he had concealed it well? In fact, even Mianyu noticed it."
"What did you say?" Lu Congxu finally spoke.
"I say, actually, Mianyu has known about your thoughts for a long time." Ye Qianan sneered, supporting his forehead with his index finger. "She's just pretending not to know. Otherwise, if she brings it up, she'll have to reject you. Wouldn't that be very troublesome? It's better to just pretend to be friends. She doesn't plan to respond to you anyway."
Wen Mianyu almost wanted to go in and curse. What the hell did she know? If she knew, she wouldn't be so shocked. If she knew, she wouldn't always tease Lu Congxu. If she knew...
Wen Mianyu was extremely confused. She suddenly heard such news. She felt incredible and unbelievable in her heart. She had no idea how to face Lu Congxu.
But she was very angry when she heard Ye Qianan say this. She was afraid that Lu Congxu would really misunderstand something if she didn't explain.
Wouldn't it be embarrassing for Lu Congxu to go in now? She heard these words.
Just when Wen Mianyu was hesitating, Lu Congxu spoke.
"She's not that kind of person." The man's voice was cold but firm.
Wen Mianyu breathed a sigh of relief, and a warm feeling passed through her heart. Lu Congxu really understood her.
"What a surprise! Mr. Lu actually thinks you know his fiancée better than I do?" Ye Qianan clapped his hands twice and stood up from the sofa. "It's a pity that your self-deception can only deceive yourself."
"I'm telling the truth." It was the first time Wen Mianyu heard Lu Congxu speak with such disdain. "You don't understand her, and you're not worthy of her."
"I'm not worthy of Mian Yu? Do you think you are worthy of her? Lu Congxu!"
Ye Qianan was obviously excited, and his voice suddenly rose. "Don't think that you are superior just because the Lu family is backing you up. You didn't say you were not worthy of me. It was Mianyu who chose me. She likes me, not you. You have no chance in this life or in this death, not in this lifetime!"
"Even if she's dead, she's mine, Ye Qianan's, not yours, Lu Congxu! You're not even qualified to be interviewed."
"It's not that he is unqualified, he's just not as shameless as you." Wen Mianyu couldn't help it and pushed the door open and walked in.
Ye Qianan was speaking passionately when she suddenly barged in and interrupted him. His eyes suddenly turned fierce, "Who let you in?"
"Oh, Mr. Ye, you're so scary. I thought you were the emperor and this is your bedroom." Wen Mianyu pretended to cover her heart with her hands, looking frightened. "Mr. Ye, you're not going to call the guards, are you? No, I'm so scared."
“…” Ye Qianan.
Wen Mianyu's expression clearly showed that she was mocking him. How could a new and unknown actor in the crew dare to treat him like this!
Lu Congxu didn't expect Wen Mianyu to come in. He looked at her with a complicated expression, "Mian...why are you here?"
The unfinished word "Mianmian" and Lu Congxu's expression that seemed neither embarrassed nor evasive, both made Wen Mianyu realize something.
This person knows her identity.
