"Really?" Shi Qiyun looked at Tao Wenwen and became even quieter.
When it comes to Gao Yue, Tao Wenwen has a lot to say, but now she started nagging, praising Gao Yue almost from head to toe before she stopped.
During the whole process, she didn't say a single bad word about Gao Yue, as if she had long forgotten that her original impression of Gao Yue was so bad that she didn't even want to think about him.
The cocktail party and the dinner were not far apart, and it only took a short drive to get there. As soon as the two got out of the car, they ran into He Jingzhen at the door.
Shi Qiyun was originally just walking side by side with Tao Wenwen. When he saw He Jingzhen, he deliberately put his arm around Tao Wenwen's waist, walked up to He Jingzhen and greeted her, "What a coincidence, Sister Zhen."
What a coincidence! All the actors were supposed to come to the cocktail party, and as the leading actress, He Jingzhen had no reason to be absent.
It sounds like a lame way of talking.
Even the thick-skinned Tao Wenwen could tell that Shi Qiyun was deliberately interrupting her, and she looked at Shi Qiyun suspiciously.
This guy said that he gave up on He Jingzhen because she already had a boyfriend, but it turned out that he still had He Jingzhen in his heart.
What everyone speculated at the dinner party before, that Shi Qiyun liked her, was simply untrue.
Tao Wenwen glanced at He Jingzhen again and immediately understood that Shi Qiyun deliberately made everyone misunderstand their relationship in order to make He Jingzhen jealous.
So that’s how it is!
Tao Wenwen, who had figured it out, breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Hello, Miss He."
Even Tao Wenwen could see it, so He Jingzhen could see it even more. She looked at the two of them with a gentle smile, and treated Tao Wenwen very cordially. She said, "This isn't the first time we've met. We're all acquaintances. Since you're Qiyun's girlfriend, you should call me Sister Zhen, just like him."
Most of the time, He Jingzhen calls Shi Qiyun "Brother Yun", and there are not many times when she calls him Qiyun so affectionately.
Shi Qiyun didn't know whether he was happy or unhappy after hearing this. Although he frowned, there was a glimmer of light in his eyes. The hand on Tao Wenwen's waist was clenched tightly in displeasure, and he looked awkward and complicated.
Tao Wenwen gasped in pain and turned around to glare at Shi Qiyun.
Shi Qiyun belatedly realized that his emotions were wrong and quickly loosened his grip.
Tao Wenwen then smiled at He Jingzhen and called out, "Sister Zhen."
Then she immediately explained, "But I'm not Shi Qiyun's girlfriend, he's my fourth brother!"
Shi Qiyun was very dissatisfied with Tao Wenwen's attitude of always being clear about things, as if he was afraid that others would misunderstand their relationship. He was not a monster, nor a bad guy!
"Really?" He Jingzhen glanced at Shi Qiyun meaningfully, the smile on her face becoming even gentler. She said, "Qiyun, it seems you haven't worked hard enough. You need to work harder."
He Jingzhen was accompanied by her boyfriend Yuan Zian. When they were talking, Yuan Zian was always by He Jingzhen's side. Hearing this, he laughed, with sarcasm on his face and in his eyes.
"People who are destined to be together can have theirs without fighting for it. People who are not destined to be together will all be in vain even if they work hard their whole lives." Yuan Zian's words were a little arrogant.
He was with He Jingbai because Shi Qiyun was pursuing her passionately. Compared with Shi Qiyun's efforts, Yuan Zian could be said to have done it effortlessly.
Yuan Zian lost to Shi Qiyun in his career, but finally won over Shi Qiyun in love, so he was very proud of getting He Jingzhen.
Every time I see Shi Qiyun, I have to make a few sarcastic remarks to feel happy.
Shi Qiyun hated Yuan Zian very much. He was not the type to be so evasive, and when Yuan Zian made a few sarcastic remarks, his temper immediately flared up.
"Yuan Zian, the cocktail party is about to begin. Shouldn't you be with the director at this time? If you are so passive, be careful that his next supporting role will become someone else's." Shi Qiyun immediately fought back.
"Zi'an, you go in first. I want to talk to Qiyun and Wenwen for a while." He Jingzhen also said. Although she chose Yuan Zi'an in the end, it doesn't mean that Yuan Zi'an can treat her like an object and talk about her without respecting her at all!
Yuan Zian also clearly felt He Jingzhen's displeasure. He was able to get this role thanks to He Jingzhen's introduction.
In front of her, Yuan Zian didn't dare to go too far.
"The director's side is not important. I'm here to accompany you today. I'll be wherever you are." Yuan Zian said in a flattering manner.
He Jingzhen's expression didn't change because of Yuan Zian's flattery. She still looked like a superior goddess and said, "I have an appointment with the director for the next play. I told him that there is an audition opportunity for you. If you want it, go and get it yourself. Those people around him are all actors vying for the role of the second male lead. If you don't want it, then stay and chat with us."
As they were talking, they had already walked into the cocktail party. The place was very spacious and the director could be seen at a glance. There were indeed many people surrounding him, all trying their best to show their courtesy.
Yuan Zian couldn't stand it anymore when he saw this scene. He immediately changed his attitude and said, "In that case, I'll go over first. Once I've spoken to the director, I'll be right back to accompany you!"
After saying that, he kissed He Jingzhen on the face and left without stopping.
He Jingzhen just wanted to test Yuan Zian's attitude with the role, but she didn't expect that he would actually go to the director and abandon her so disrespectfully.
"Let's go over there and talk." He Jingzhen maintained a smile on her face, but the smile in her eyes had long since turned cold.
Shi Qiyun couldn't bear to see He Jingzhen being wronged. Watching Yuan Zian leave, he couldn't help but get angry and said, "Who the hell is Yuan Zian? Only you treat him like a treasure!"
"I'm fine..." He Jingzhen, who was calm and composed the moment before, had red eyes the next second after hearing Shi Qiyun's words. She seemed to have suffered great injustice and could no longer say anything extra. She suddenly turned around and left.
"Jingzhen!"
Shi Qiyun didn't think twice and started chasing after him.
Tao Wenwen: "..."
She was left at the scene by Shi Qiyun.
Tao Wenwen looked around, hesitating whether to follow, when she saw Yuan Zian, who was talking to the director, suddenly raised his head and looked in the direction where He Jingzhen and Shi Qiyun left, and then followed them.
Yuan Zian is He Jingzhen's boyfriend. Shi Qiyun went up to comfort He Jingzhen. If Yuan Zian saw something he shouldn't have seen...
Tao Wenwen recalled the plots of the melodramatic TV dramas he occasionally saw on TV in his previous life, and followed along silently.
If they started fighting, it would be impossible for her to stop them, but at least she could help call for help!
