Upon entering the party, Shi Xi saw Xie Yunzhou, who was looking for her.
Xie Yunzhou: "Why are you so late? What happened?"
"There was a traffic jam on the way, and some people were causing trouble at the entrance, so I watched the commotion for a while." Shi Xi linked arms with him: "Anyway, it doesn't matter whether I come or not!"
Although it's called a cocktail party, it's really just a place for everyone to socialize.
Shi Xi has always politely declined such occasions.
If Han Chuan hadn't asked her to maintain her social circle, she wouldn't have even considered coming.
Yan Linlang brought over a wine glass and said with a smile, "Miss Shi, it's been a long time. You've become even more beautiful."
Shi Xi snapped out of her daze: "Hello, Miss Yan."
"Don't be so polite. From now on, just call me Sister Linlang, like Yunzhou does." Yan Linlang thought of something and said, "I watched your new movie, it was really good!"
At this point, Shi Xi could still laugh along.
Yan Linlang then asked, "I'm just curious, won't your boyfriend be angry if you make a movie like this?"
Shi Xi: ...
He glanced at Xie Yunzhou, but his expression remained unchanged.
It seems like they're also waiting for her answer.
Yan Linlang pressed on relentlessly, asking, "I often hear about relationships developing on set in the entertainment industry. Won't you do that?"
Shi Xi took a sip of wine to calm her nerves.
Both of them were waiting for her answer.
Shi Xi took a deep breath and asked, "Miss Yan, are you asking these questions to try and drive a wedge between Xie Yunzhou and me?"
Yan Linlang was surprised by Shi Xi's bluntness and quickly replied, "Of course not, I was just curious."
“Being too curious isn’t a good thing,” Shi Xi said tactfully. “If Miss Yan has time, she might as well spend more time being curious about her own affairs.”
Mind your own business when it comes to beautiful women!
Don't meddle!
Yan Linlang understood the meaning behind Shi Xi's words, and the smile on her face stiffened slightly.
Xie Yunzhou chimed in, "Sister Linlang, I know a few friends who aren't married yet. If you need help, I can help you make connections."
Clearly, both of them felt that Yan Linlang was being nosy.
"No need, I'm fine on my own." Yan Linlang gripped her wine glass tighter and said, "Yunzhou, I have a collaboration I'd like to discuss with you. Could we talk in private for a moment?"
Shi Xi was about to leave discreetly.
Xie Yunzhou politely declined, saying, "I'm sorry, I've been very busy lately and can't work with Sister Linlang."
Yan Linlang encountered setbacks in everything she did, and unable to keep smiling, she left with a dark face.
Shi Xi asked in a low voice, "Are you afraid I'll get angry, that's why you're not cooperating with Yan Linlang?"
Xie Yunzhou asked, "Would you be angry if I cooperated with her?"
"I think she's a bit strange... If we offend her, will she target the Xie family?" After learning about Yan Linlang's identity from Hua Xuan, Shi Xi had very complicated feelings about Yan Linlang.
Having power is more enviable than having money!
Xie Yunzhou chuckled lightly, "You're already worried about the Xie family before you've even married into it?"
Shi Xi just wanted to roll her eyes at him.
Xie Yunzhou patted the girl's head. "Don't worry, I can handle it."
Since Xie Yunzhou said so, Shi Xi stopped thinking about it.
If something really happens, we'll deal with it then.
“However,” Xie Yunzhou drawled, “I am quite interested in what Yan Linlang said about ‘falling in love on set’.”
Shi Xi paused for a moment, then said, "Don't worry, none of them are as handsome as you."
Xie Yunzhou: "...What if I meet someone more handsome than me?"
“Then I definitely won’t be as rich as you.” Shi Xi added, “Besides being handsome and wealthy, you have many other advantages. If you want to hear them, I’ll tell you slowly when we get back.”
Helpless, Xie Yunzhou stopped asking questions.
