A man with a somewhat honest face and a slightly lewd smile approached, a wine glass in hand. The premium red wine flowed brilliantly under the light like a shining gem.
He appeared to be in his forties, with a missing front tooth replaced by a gold one.
Song Zhan had once mentioned this man to me. He was a producer in a company, last name Zhang, and was quite famous.
Yu Ting followed the sound, looked at the man for some time in silence, then put on a professional yet insincere smile. In an affable tone, she greeted, "Hello, Producer Zhang."
"Hello, hello. Ms. Yu’s career has been quite successful lately," the man replied with a meaningful smile, raising his wine glass in an attempt to toast with Yu Ting.
The uproar she made against Southwest Entertainment online was indeed substantial. Almost everyone in the industry knew something about it.
It was interesting how VG dared to challenge the industry leader upon its arrival.
"Not bad, not bad." Yu Ting replied modestly, careful not to say anything inappropriate or boastful that might reflect poorly on her company. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺
If she were being blunt, she would have said that Shen Ruchu was on his way out.
She picked up a wine glass from the nearby table, clinked glasses with him, and took a small sip.
Lu Nanchen, standing nearby, didn’t understand the conversation, but he felt reassured seeing Yu Ting in his line of sight.
...
Lu Nanchen started to feel quite uneasy as he watched Yu Ting chat with the producer and take several sips of wine. He unconsciously moved closer to her.
"Ms. Yu’s husband is certainly handsome. Was his face a gift from God? But being handsome isn’t enough if there isn’t a brain behind it," the man said, attempting to pass it off as a joke.
His gaze gradually shifted from Yu Ting to Lu Nanchen who stood by her side. He noticed Lu Nanchen as soon as he walked in. He was undeniably handsome.
The rumor on the Internet was true after all. The outsider was simply a kept man.
No recent marriage of any elite in Jiangqi City was reported.
"That is not your concern." Yu Ting, feeling dizzy after a few glasses of wine, bluntly retorted. Her head felt heavy as she leaned on Lu Nanchen.
Since when did her marriage become everyone’s business?
"Ha ha... You’re right, it’s not my concern. I just wanted to remind you... After all, being a person like Ms. Yu..." said the producer, feeling cornered, he started to flatter Yu Ting and defend himself.
"Ha ha ha... You crossed the line."
The first half were teasing words, and the second half was assertive. Yu Ting’s cheeks were red from the wine, her alluring eyes narrowed, indicating her discomfort.
While the man tried to pass off his words as a joke, Yu Ting did not take them lightly.
Recognizing this, the man stopped pushing and just smiled awkwardly in the background.
"Ha ha ha, I’ve overstepped. Let’s continue drinking, Ms. Yu."
As he spoke, he stretched out his glass towards Yu Ting.
"She can’t handle much alcohol." Lu Nanchen stated flatly. With one arm around Yu Ting’s shoulders to provide support, he picked up another glass of wine from the table and clinked it with the producer’s glass. "I’ll drink on her behalf."
Under the light, with the dimly lit sky as a backdrop, the man’s magnificence seemed even more breathtaking.
He was the kind of man you knew was extraordinary at first glance.
"Nice, what a loving couple," the producer said appreciatively, studying Lu Nanchen’s face closely.
Did JiangQi City really have a high-profile individual he had never heard of?
From then on, Lu Nanchen took over Yu Ting’s drinking duties whenever someone wanted to chat or toast with her.
