Chapter 206 She Was Just Asking a Few Questions
The variety show about opening a restaurant has flying guests like Qi Luo, and naturally there are also regular guests.
There are five regular guests, two of whom Qi Luo has met before. One was introduced to Qi Luo by Yang Liuer at the cocktail party, and the other was introduced to him by Mu Yaya at Jin Lu's birthday party, so Qi Luo was not facing completely strangers this time. Plus, there’s another guest star named Jin Lu, so he’s no stranger to me.
With Jin Lu's status and no recent movies to promote, he shouldn't need to participate in such a variety show, but he came.
Qi Luo was a little surprised to see him, but not too surprised.
With so many things happening on the cruise ship that day, Jin Lu must have realized long ago that he had offended Qi Wuyu by deliberately luring him away. Knowing Qi Wuyu's even more unoffendable identity on the cruise ship, Jin Lu would of course find a way to make amends. Since he couldn't see Qi Wuyu, he had to start with Qi Luo.
As soon as Qi Luo saw him, she guessed that he must have heard about her itinerary from somewhere else and followed her specially.
"Luoluo, we meet again."
"Teacher Jinlu."
Sitting in the car on the way to the destination, Jin Lu saw Qi Luo and upon closer inspection he found that he seemed a little reserved. It was difficult not to be restrained. He had seen Qi Luo's extraordinaryness on the cruise ship, and there was no way he could treat Qi Luo as an ordinary colleague or junior.
Putting aside their identities that were beyond his reach, just taking the fact that Qi Luo was Qi Wuyu's wife as an example, he could no longer treat Qi Luo as an ordinary junior.
"It's been a while since Liu'er introduced you to me at the movie premiere. How are you doing recently? I heard that you are filming two dramas at the same time. How do you find time to film variety shows when you are so busy?"
This happened in front of the camera. Jin Lu deliberately said that the last time they met was at the premiere. Qi Luo's attendance at the premiere that time was on the hot search list because of the influence of Actor Qi. It was a public itinerary.
"I haven't had any scenes in the past few days, so I'm free. The production team just happened to invite me to come. What about Mr. Jin Lu? Are you taking a break or filming a new drama?"
Jin Lu could not see anything wrong on Qi Luo's face, as if they had only met that one time at the premiere. He was amazed at Qi Luo's acting skills.
"I've been resting recently. I'm still preparing for the new drama. I'll go in March after the Chinese New Year. Luoluo, you're working too hard. The Chinese New Year is almost here. It's okay to take some time off to relax."
"I'm just starting out, so I have to make good use of such great resources. I can't relax." Qi Luo acted like a newcomer who would try his best to seize any opportunity.
"Yes, it's good for young people to be motivated. You have both strength and luck. I believe you will be able to achieve results soon. I am optimistic about you."
"Thank you, Mr. Jinlu."
The two chatted casually until they arrived at their destination.
The regular guests are already waiting.
With the senior Jin Lu as a guest at the same time, Qi Luo was naturally not the one who attracted the most attention. She also consciously reduced her presence and did not appear in the camera too often. She went to the kitchen to help.
Of course, it was the senior who introduced her to her by Yang Liuer who dragged her there. She said that she had been envious of her cooking skills after watching her on previous variety shows and wanted to try it herself.
When others give him the opportunity to perform, Qi Luo will not refuse it hypocritically and will gladly accept it.
She cooked two hard dishes.
It was a relatively homely dish that was easy to cook, and she chose it on purpose, after all, she was here to add some color to their menu.
These are obviously very easy dishes to make, and many people have made these two dishes, but they taste better when made by her. For this, Qi Luo won a lot of praise at the dinner table.
She acted shy and accepted it humbly.
Jin Lu, who was watching from the side, felt indescribable.
The contrast was too great, very different from the Qi Luo he met on the cruise ship. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would have found it hard to believe that this was the same person. Although there are many people in the entertainment industry who have established characters that are inconsistent with their own personalities, it is not common to see someone who is so different in person from what they appear in front of the camera.
I can't help but sigh that Qi Luo has the looks, acting skills and background, and he was born to be in the entertainment industry.
Jin Lu did not look for Qi Luo during the recording of the program, and the recording went smoothly. He met Qi Luo alone when he was packing up to leave after the second day of recording.
"Ms. Su."
When he is not in front of the camera, Jin Luduan no longer behaves like a senior. His attitude towards Qi Luo is even a little respectful.
After all, he was in the wrong.
"Teacher Jin Lu, is there anything you want to talk to me about?" Even if he was not in front of the camera, Qi Luo still looked like a junior who respected his senior.
At least that was the case for the moment, but after the two of them sat down, Jin Lu immediately felt the change in Qi Luo's temperament.
She still sat opposite with a faint smile on her face, but the feeling she gave was changed. There is no deliberate imposing aura, but it just gives people an inexplicable sense of oppression.
Jin Lu suddenly became nervous. "I, I came to see Miss Su mainly because I wanted to apologize to Miss Su and Mr. Qi in person."
"Because of the fact that Mr. Jin Lu lured Mr. Qi to the cruise ship?"
Jin Lu didn't expect her to be so direct. He didn't know how to respond for a moment.
"Yes, yes. At first, I just thought that Mr. Qi and I were barely friends. Given his status in the entertainment industry, it would be a great honor for me to invite him. Of course, this is only part of the reason. The most important reason is that the friend who gave me the right to hold a birthday party on the cruise ship asked me to help."
"At first I didn't know why my friend wanted me to invite actor Qi. She knew me through chasing stars and was considered my fan. I thought she was also a fan of actor Qi and wanted to meet him. It was not until I couldn't contact my friend on the cruise that I realized the seriousness of the matter."
"Ms. Su, I didn't mean to do anything to harm Mr. Qi. I hope you can help me convey my apologies to Mr. Qi and ask him not to take it seriously."
Qi Wuyu didn't have the time to care about this. He was probably already forgotten about Jin Lu. She agreed to meet Jin Lu not just to hear Jin Lu's confession.
"I will convey your meaning, but... Mr. Jinlu, since your friend has the right to let you hold a birthday party on the cruise ship, she must be very familiar with the owner of the cruise ship. Is she a friend of the cruise ship owner? Can you tell me her name?"
If she wanted to know, she could just ask Qi Wuyu, and Qi Wuyu would definitely tell her. But since Qi Wuyu didn't want her to get involved in these matters, she wouldn't cause him unnecessary worries. She hadn't planned to ask any more questions, since Jin Lu just happened to come to her doorstep.
It doesn't hurt to find out a thing or two.
The fact that she was willing to ask meant she was ready to give in.
Jin Lu was overjoyed and didn't dare to hide anything, so he told everyone everything he knew.
"Her name is Lu Li. I don't know her last name. I only know that her family has some status in California. She said that she and the owner of the cruise ship were good friends who grew up together and had a very good relationship. I don't know more than that. In fact, before I met the owner of the cruise ship in the private room, I didn't know who the real owner of the cruise ship was."
