The hotel that Cheng Jinche booked was not far away, and the group chatted and laughed, and arrived at the place in a few minutes. The person in charge of the hotel personally took them to the private room on the second floor.
Zhou Yunwan followed behind the team. She wasn't very familiar with everyone yet, and she didn't force herself to join in on topics that she couldn't, so most of the time she just agreed with them and smiled, trying her best to look low-key and easy-going.
But she can't keep a low profile with this face, and there are many people who pay attention to her openly or secretly.
When they were almost in the private room, a hand suddenly wrapped around her arm, and Gao Menglan approached her affectionately: "Comrade Zhou, can we sit together later?"
Zhou Yunwan frowned. She didn't like strangers getting so close to her without permission. She subconsciously wanted to pull her hand back, but Gao Menglan held her tightly, and she didn't want to struggle too much to avoid attracting other people's attention.
Gao Menglan seemed unable to notice her resistance. She did not retract her strength at all and stared at her innocently, expecting that she would consider their face and not reject her in front of so many people.
Zhou Yunwan sneered. Are you trying to play this trick on her?
She blinked her eyes, a few tears appeared in her beautiful and clear pupils, her eyebrows slightly frowned, and her voice was tinged with fear and softness: "Can you let me go? You hurt me."
Her voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just loud enough for the people around to hear, and they all looked over at the two of them.
...
...
Cheng Jinche, who was walking beside Zhou Yunwan, looked over immediately and saw Gao Menglan hugging Zhou Yunwan tightly, while Zhou Yunwan had an expression that was very embarrassed but didn't want to expose it.
Cheng Jinche quickly came to the rescue and said, "Can't you see that Comrade Zhou is feeling uncomfortable? Why don't you let go?"
Gao Menglan caught Cheng Jinche's gaze. She didn't expect him to stand on her side. She bit her lower lip and said, "I didn't use any strength at all..."
Someone interrupted her: "How can you hurt someone without using too much force?"
Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Gao Menglan had no choice but to let go of her hand: "Oh, sorry."
Zhou Yunwan was freed as she wished, and generously said that it was okay: "It's okay, I believe you didn't mean it."
After this little episode, Gao Menglan never mentioned sitting with her again.
Just as the group was about to enter the private room, a tall and slender beauty suddenly walked out from the next room.
"Hey, isn't this Director Cheng? What a coincidence, are you bringing your crew here to eat?"
The visitor was wearing a black dress, paired with exquisite jewelry and high heels. She had black hair and red lips. She stood there with her hands behind her back and her chin slightly raised, looking indescribably charming and sexy.
Zhou Yunwan recognized the other person's face at a glance. Isn't this the hottest actress Fang Lingxin at the moment?
Her posters are all over cinemas and major shopping malls, so it’s hard not to recognize her.
but……
Zhou Yunwan thought of something and turned to look at Cheng Jinche next to her. Sure enough, his expression was not very good.
The person in front of her was the actress that Cheng Jinche had mentioned to her before, the one he made famous, who became arrogant after becoming famous and temporarily defected to another crew.
It is also because of her that the filming of this movie has been delayed until now, delaying the schedule of countless people in the crew.
But if it weren't for her, I wouldn't have gotten this opportunity.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yunwan felt a subtle emotion in her heart. She didn't know whether she should thank her or hate her like everyone else.
Taking a look at the ugly expressions of the people around him, he couldn't help but sigh that Fang Lingxin's psychological quality was really strong. Even after such a festival, he was still able to greet them as if nothing had happened.
Cheng Jinche glanced at Fang Lingxin expressionlessly and did not respond, but in his heart he felt that the smile on the corner of her mouth was very dazzling and he wished he could tear off the mask she wore for so many years.
Fang Lingxin was not angry when she didn't get a response. He was not the only one present that she knew, and others didn't dare to offend Fang Lingxin, so they still said a few polite words to save her face.
The one who was the most enthusiastic among them was Gao Menglan, who called her "Sister Ling Xin" all the time in a very affectionate way.
Finally, Fang Lingxin glanced at the most eye-catching face in the crowd, her smile faded a bit, and she muttered to herself, "Is she your new heroine?"
There was an elusive look of scrutiny and inquiry in Fang Lingxin's eyes as she looked at Zhou Yunwan.
Hearing this, Cheng Jinche, who had been silent, raised his eyebrows, saw her purpose, and said with a smile: "Is she prettier than you?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the relatively relaxed atmosphere immediately became awkward.
Fang Lingxin's smile cracked for a moment, and a trace of sadness flashed across her eyes, but she soon returned to normal and admitted openly: "She is indeed prettier than me, and it will definitely be a big hit at the box office."
After saying that, she made up an excuse and left: "Then enjoy your meal, I won't bother you anymore."
Cheng Jinche looked at her receding back. Based on his understanding of her, she definitely did not appear here by chance. She was probably here for Zhou Yunwan. After all, he once promised her that she would be his only heroine.
However, she was the one who betrayed him first.
Cheng Jinche was upset, but he couldn't just leave so many people behind, so he could only force a smile and invite everyone into the private room to sit down and order food.
The whole dinner party was briefly silent due to Fang Lingxin's appearance, but soon became lively again. I don't know who brought up the topic first, but the focus of the topic became gossip about Fang Lingxin.
The most heatedly discussed issue was the gossip reported in the newspaper a few days ago, which said that Fang Lingxin was suspected of dating the producer of her current crew, and there were also photos of the two of them walking in and out of a hotel together, arm in arm.
There’s nothing wrong with dating, but the key point is that the producer is 40 years old and has a family and children.
Zhou Yunwan didn't have much interest in this dinner at first, but now, listening to the heated discussions around her, she quietly pricked up her ears to eavesdrop. After all, no one would not like to eat melons, especially the melons about a popular female star in the entertainment industry.
But she just listened to it for fun. Everyone knows that the news in their circle is true and false, and no one can judge except the parties involved.
While listening to gossip and filling her stomach, Zhou Yunwan took the time to go to the bathroom.
After coming out of the toilet, she noticed a familiar figure standing in front of the sink and paused.
Fang Lingxin was applying lipstick in front of a small mirror in her hand. When she heard the noise, she turned around and looked over. When she saw it was her, her expression changed, and then she showed her signature smile again.
"Comrade Zhou?"
You shouldn’t hit someone who smiles at you. Zhou Yunwan didn’t have any grudges against her, so she smiled back, “Hello, Comrade Fang.”
Fang Lingxin put away the small mirror and lipstick, and inadvertently glanced at the half-hidden kiss mark on Zhou Yunwan's collar. Her pupils shrank suddenly, her expression twisted for a moment, and she blurted out, "You slept with him?"
