The cast and crew of "Three Realms" have dinner time.
Pei Yue had just finished a day of filming and was removing his makeup and changing clothes in the dressing room when he heard Qin Wan's phone ringing incessantly beside him...
"You didn't block the phone number?" Pei Yue raised an eyebrow.
Clearly, he had guessed it.
No one but Xiang Yang would bombard Qin Wan with WeChat messages and phone calls.
"I just removed it from the blacklist a couple of days ago," Qin Wan said helplessly.
"After you contact me next time, remember to remove me from the blacklist immediately," Pei Yue instructed.
Qin Wan: "..." That's a bit too much.
Qin Wan picked up her phone, about to answer, when Pei Yue snatched it away, hung up with a "click," and then casually added it to his blacklist.
"He must have something to discuss with me," Qin Wan explained.
"Just contact his assistant; he only causes trouble, he doesn't know how to solve it."
Qin Wan: "..." That makes so much sense, I can't even refute it.
"Ten minutes."
After dropping a precise number, Pei Yue tossed the phone back to Qin Wan, then turned and took his clothes into the dressing room.
Ten minutes later...
Pei Yue arrived precisely on time, and after getting ready, he stood beside Qin Wan with his phone in hand.
"Let's go, I'll take you to eat hot pot."
Upon hearing this, Qin Wan was taken aback. "Why are you suddenly eating hot pot? I remember you've been working out and controlling your diet lately, and you have to get up early tomorrow to film a movie. Hot pot has a strong flavor, and you're bound to drink too much water at night, so you'll be bloated tomorrow."
Pei Yue glanced at her indifferently. "Who said I wanted to eat hot pot?"
"Aren't you going to eat?" Qin Wan was taken aback.
"What? You've forgotten so quickly? You said you wanted to eat hot pot just a couple of days ago."
"I had a lot of scenes to film those two days. By the time filming ended in the early hours of the morning, the hot pot restaurant was already closed. I was too tired to continue."
Upon hearing Pei Yue's words, Qin Wan's eyes flickered. She looked at him intently and asked tentatively, "Why are you suddenly being so nice to me?"
Pei Yue gave her a cold look. "When have I ever treated you badly?"
Qin Wan: "..."
The entrance to the film crew's location.
As Qin Wan and Pei Yue stepped out of the filming studio, two familiar figures appeared and blocked their way.
"Towards the sun?"
"Lu Zhao?"
"Why are you two here?" Qin Wan asked in surprise, looking at the two people in front of her.
Before Lu Zhao could speak, Xiang Yang interrupted her.
"Qin Wan, you're going too far!"
"Blocking me on WeChat is one thing, but how could you block my phone number too?"
"I just wanted to call you and explain things clearly..."
Xiang Yang was still babbling on and on, and Pei Yue frowned unhappily.
Seeing this, the sharp-eyed Lu Zhao immediately covered his mouth, preventing him from continuing.
After the noisy chatter subsided, Pei Yue's slightly furrowed brows relaxed a little.
"I contacted the director and he said the audition is tomorrow morning. I happened to be free today, so I packed my bags and came over in advance."
"I met Xiangyang on the road. He said he wanted to explain the fight to you..."
As Lu Zhao explained, Xiang Yang kept pulling at his hand, trying to make him let go.
"Mmm..."
Xiangyang struggled and sobbed, trying to get Lu Zhao to let go of him.
However, Lu Zhao not only did not let go, but even tightened his grip on his hand.
"Did you just finish filming?" Lu Zhao asked.
"Mm." Qin Wan nodded.
"Shall we go eat now?"
"Have you two eaten yet?" Qin Wan asked, looking at the two of them.
Lu Zhao shook his head, "Not yet. Xiang Yang was just saying that he wanted to treat us to a meal to express his apology and explain the fight."
Upon hearing this, Xiangyang struggled even more fiercely.
When did he ever say such a thing?
He didn't do anything wrong!
Why did he apologize?
What else is there to invite me to dinner?
He never said whether it was good or bad!
He's so poor, how could he afford to treat everyone to a meal!
In particular, with Pei Yue, this living ancestor, around, if he were to offer to treat him to a meal, Pei Yue would definitely fleece him, leaving a deep impression that he would never forget.
“Pei Yue and I are planning to go out for hot pot. Xiang Yang is participating in a trainee selection program, and you have an audition for ‘Three Realms’ tomorrow. Going out for hot pot isn’t really a good idea…”
Upon hearing this, Lu Zhao tactfully said, "We can eat boiled vegetables and boiled meat."
Pei Yue glanced at Lu Zhao indifferently and said to Qin Wan, "Get in the car."
Upon hearing this, Qin Wan immediately understood, "Then let's go together."
In the van, after regaining his freedom, Xiangyang immediately looked at Qin Wan and opened his mouth to start "babbling" again.
However, before he could even utter a word, a sharp, cold gaze fell upon him.
Instantly, Xiangyang froze...
The machine turned its head and met Pei Yue's dangerous gaze. Xiang Yang immediately knew better and shut up.
Along the way, due to Pei Yue's "tyranny," Xiang Yang dared not make a fuss or even utter a sound.
Enjoying a rare moment of peace and quiet in the van.
Inside a private room at a hot pot restaurant.
Pei Yue handed the menu directly to Qin Wan, who knew all three of their tastes and preferences perfectly.
After the tea was served, Pei Yue poured himself a cup and then poured one for Qin Wan as well.
As for Xiang Yang and Lu Zhao, he didn't even glance at them.
Although Xiang Yang was full of resentment, he dared not say anything because of Pei Yue.
Lu Zhao was the most sensible, knowing that he could provide for himself.
Seeing Xiangyang's pitiful state, Lu Zhao poured him a cup of tea.
“That explains it.” Lu Zhao said, patting Xiang Yang’s shoulder as he handed him the teacup.
Xiang Yang: "...You expect me to explain? Why should I?!"
Xiangyang angrily denounced Lu Zhao's excessive behavior.
First they covered his mouth, then they tricked him into treating them to dinner, and now they're making him bow his head and admit his mistake—what's going on?
"This time, the fault wasn't mine," Xiangyang said indignantly, defending himself.
"Who did you hit?" Qin Wan asked.
“Zhao Chengfei from Tianxing Entertainment,” Xiang Yang said sullenly.
Did he insult you? Or did he verbally provoke you?
Upon hearing this, Xiang Yang looked up at Qin Wan in surprise, seemingly not expecting her to ask such a question.
"No..." Xiang Yang shook his head.
"..." Upon hearing this, Qin Wan paused for a moment, "He attacked first?"
Xiang Yang looked up at Qin Wan in surprise.
"Why...don't you think I started this?"
Qin Wan looked at him and said, "I know you. You wouldn't do that."
"Although you have a quick temper and act impulsively, you're not brainless."
"Not to mention, you're short of money right now, and any negative news could severely damage your business."
"At that time, it will inevitably affect your career and income."
"So, you won't do that."
After Qin Wan finished speaking, Xiang Yang remained silent for a moment.
Depend on!
This woman understands him so well!
After a brief silence, Xiang Yang raised his eyes, his burning gaze fixed on Qin Wan.
"If... I mean if."
Qin Wan said calmly, "Speak."
"If I tell you the whole story, could you please not make me pay for hot pot tonight?"
Qin Wan: "..."
Pei Yue: "..."
Lu Zhao: "..."
"Qin Wan, I promise you, the price of a hotpot meal for the truth is definitely worth it!" Xiang Yang said confidently.
