Chen Ming: [Stop talking nonsense! Lin Yuan is no match for you. He's not content with marrying a rich girl, and spends all his time fooling around outside.]
Mr. Li: [You don't believe it, do you? It's spread all over the circle. The Xu family, the Xu family, and the Guo family, several wealthy families with daughters, have all had someone pass their horoscopes to Mr. Cui.]
Mr. Li: [Actor Cui is so filial, maybe he's listened to his grandfather and has already decided on someone. He'll choose a wife of equal status and keep another one outside, and everyone will be happy!]
Chen Ming: [You're getting more and more ridiculous. I think you should just give up investing and become a screenwriter instead!]
Chen Ming: [I don't believe it anyway. If Lin Yuan was willing to marry, why would he wait until today? I think he likes the girl he's holding hands with now.]
Mr. Li: [Hey! Let's make a bet. If he admits in front of you that he likes this guy, I'll stand on my head and eat shit!]
Shen Ming: “…”
Shen Ming snorted softly, and his fingers flew across the screen:
[Okay, okay, just wait, I'm going to give you a slap in the face today!]
[Forget about eating shit, I find it disgusting. If you lose, you will have to call me uncle every day in the company!]
[If I lose, I'll let you invest 30% in the next movie.]
Mr. Li was overjoyed: [Okay, deal!]
Shen Ming hung up the phone, raised his eyebrows, and looked up at the two people by the door.
"Hey, why are you leaving? What did Xiao Xu say?" Chen Ming stood up, clapped his hands, and smiled to smooth things over. "Everyone who comes is a guest. Li... Yuan, right? Come in and sit down. Let's eat together."
Li Yuan's chin, with its delicate and smooth lines, was slightly raised.
After being ridiculed by Xu Qinglan, he felt very dissatisfied, but in front of everyone, he did not retort unscrupulously like he did in the bathroom just now.
Li Yuan originally thought that Actor Cui came with her, but now she found out that he was indeed having dinner and drinking tea with his friends, and she felt a little disappointed!
Since Actor Cui is not alone with Xu Qinglan, there is nothing to worry about.
He was discussing something with people from Jiahui Media, and it was really inconvenient for him, an outsider, to be here, so he wanted to leave.
Faced with Chen Ming's invitation, Li Yuan planned to politely refuse.
Just as he was about to speak, Cui Linyuan took him by the hand and walked him to the table in a few steps. He sat down and said in a lazy tone: "Then I would like to thank Mr. Shen on behalf of Li Yuan. It just so happens that he likes seafood very much."
Li Yuan struggled, but Mr. Cui held her hand tightly.
no way.
Since I can't leave, I'll just work hard and be a quiet and invisible person like a chicken.
After Actor Cui finishes his business, we can go back to the hotel together.
Cui Linyuan studied him for a few seconds, then personally poured a bowl of shark fin soup and placed it in front of him. "Why do you look so bitter and resentful? Are you upset by what Xu Qinglan said just now?"
The man spoke to Li Yuan softly, but glanced coldly at the gray-haired boy on the other side.
"If you don't like him, should I ask him to leave first?"
The tone was nonchalant.
Xu Qinglan's face suddenly froze and she looked at Cui Linyuan in disbelief.
He turned his angry and panicked gaze to Li Yuan.
Li Yuan: “…”
At an angle where no one else could see, Li Yuan secretly tugged at Cui Linyuan's sleeve, then tilted her head and blinked at him.
Please!
Don't say such things in public!
It makes me feel like a smug mistress who bullies others by taking advantage of her power!
"Why are you pulling me? Stop acting like a spoiled child." Cui Linyuan ruffled Li Yuan's hair, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said with a half-smile, "Are you blaming me for coming in first and leaving you outside alone?"
"I won't do it next time. Please don't be angry!"
The man's doting tone, which was so unconcerned with others, left everyone stunned.
Li Yuan listened and felt panicky.
But it felt sweet, the corners of her mouth curved slightly, and a dimple appeared.
Brother Yuan is so nice, he is helping me to cover up my lie!
"No, I don't blame you." Li Yuan cleared his throat and quickly adjusted his expression. "Xu Qinglan is right. I didn't understand the rules."
He has to be modest.
Otherwise others would think that he is just a small artist who is arrogant because of the favor of Mr. Cui!
Xiao Chengyu, who was sitting opposite, looked at the two of them and smiled and said:
"We are all from the same company, so why should we be so particular when we have a meal together?" He pushed a plate of crabs over.
"Li Yuan, try it, it's freshly steamed."
"Okay, thank you." Li Yuan nodded slightly.
"It's troublesome to peel this. Let me help you." Cui Linyuan picked up the spoon and stirred the bowl of shark fin. "You finish this first. It won't be hot anymore."
"Oh." Li Yuan obediently took the shark fin soup and ate it in small bites.
Except for Xu Qinglan, the mouths of several people in the private room were already open into an O shape, almost enough to fit an egg in!
I've known Actor Cui for so many years, but when have I ever seen him take the initiative to take care of others?
He is so meticulous and thoughtful, he looks like a good boyfriend!
The man rolled up his shirt sleeves, revealing his strong forearms. He then picked up the towel beside him to wipe his hands and began to peel the crab meat for Li Yuan himself.
"Why are you all looking at me?" Cui Linyuan said with a carefree expression, his hands peeling crab legs elegantly and dignifiedly. "Their crabs are very famous. Let's eat and chat while we eat."
Only then did everyone come to their senses.
Chen Ming took a bite of the grouper in front of him, chewed it, swallowed it, and drank another sip of tea.
Decided to strike while the iron is hot and give it a try.
