Chapter 166: Continue to Conceal



"Xu Yu, what did I say yesterday!"

Chu Zhaozhao felt a pair of hands on her body. She looked down and saw that it was indeed Xu Yu's hands.

Xu Yu was awakened by Chu Zhaozhao's voice. He shivered and sat up from the bed.

"So early in the morning, why are you..."

Xu Yu rubbed his eyes and looked at Chu Zhaozhao who was looking at him seriously. Xu Yu gave in.

"No, you did say that yesterday, but I always stay on my side before going to bed. I'm not a good sleeper. I don't know when I passed out."

Xu Yu made excuses for himself. Chu Zhaozhao looked at Xu Yu for a while, then seemed to accept it.

"Zhao Zhao, please believe me. I fell asleep and I really don't know what happened after that."

"Okay, stop explaining. The more you explain, the more confusing it becomes."

Chu Zhaozhao got up, washed her face and did some skin care.

The hotel delivered breakfast, but there was only one serving, so Xu Yu had to order another one.

"I don't have much work to do anymore. I'll go back home to rest for a while, and then I can fly directly to film the dating variety show."

Chu Zhaozhao communicated with Xu Yu, wanting to know what Xu Yu's job was.

"I'm afraid I'll be absent from the dating show for two days. I'll go back with you today to see my dad, and then fly to the crew tonight. Filming there will take a few days."

When Xu Shan was mentioned, Chu Zhaozhao thought of Mo Guangqing. Chu Zhaozhao hesitated, not knowing whether she should ask.

"Don't you want to see Mo Guangqing?"

Chu Zhaozhao was afraid of mentioning Xu Yu's sadness, and was about to comfort Xu Yu when she found that he seemed to be calm.

"You don't have to look at me like that. You're right. No matter what happened, I'm doing fine now. If she wants to come back, then she can come back."

Xu Yu's tone seemed to be relieved, but Chu Zhaozhao felt that he still sounded a little uncomfortable.

"If you want to see Mo Guangqing, I will accompany you, but I will just sit aside and you two can just chat."

Chu Zhaozhao held Xu Yu's hand, wanting to make Xu Yu feel at ease.

Xu Yu rubbed the cream on Chu Zhaozhao's face and nodded slightly.

"Oh, you didn't tell me that my face cream hadn't been rubbed in yet, and I've been wearing it for so long."

Chu Zhaozhao looked in the mirror and hurriedly rubbed the redness off her face.

[Sister Zhao Zhao, have you had breakfast? If not, can I bring you some?]

The assistant sent a WeChat message. Chu Zhaozhao took a look and replied to the assistant.

"I'm having breakfast. What time is my flight? After breakfast, could you please help me check where Jiang Yiping is going?"

[Sister Zhao Zhao, I asked Sister Yiping, she has a live broadcast, so she will go directly to BJ.]

After learning that Jiang Yeping was going to BJ, Chu Zhaozhao stopped replying.

"Jiang Yiping is going to BJ, so the two of us will go back."

Chu Zhaozhao said to Xu Yu while eating fried eggs.

Xu Yu made some oatmeal for Chu Zhaozhao. He always felt that these Western breakfasts tasted very ordinary, especially for someone like Chu Zhaozhao who loved spicy food.

"Li Haonan is also going to BJ. What a coincidence. Oh, and my mom should have gone to see my dad. I wonder if we can run into her again when we go back."

Xu Yu handed the cereal to Chu Zhaozhao. Chu Zhaozhao reluctantly took a few bites and felt that it had no taste and didn't want to eat it anymore.

After breakfast, the assistant came to Chu Zhaozhao's room to get the luggage.

"How did you sleep last night? I felt like you stayed up all night."

Chu Zhaozhao asked the assistant, but the assistant hesitated and didn't answer.

"What's wrong? You are usually so eloquent, but today you are speechless?" Chu Zhaozhao asked.

The assistant smiled at Chu Zhaozhao and pulled the luggage into the elevator.

"Really..." Chu Zhaozhao looked at the assistant helplessly.

Just after sending the assistant away, Jiang Yiping came over again. She stuffed some local specialties into Chu Zhaozhao's hands and asked Chu Zhaozhao to take them home to eat.

"Your flight is earlier than mine, so I'll just give you a ride."

Jiang Yiping was wearing sportswear and looked like she had just come back from a run.

"No need to see us off. If you had seen us off, how would you have come back? It would have been so troublesome running around. Just stay in the hotel. Don't see us off."

Chu Zhaozhao rejected Jiang Yeping's kindness, so Jiang Yeping could only give them some more local specialties.

"Where is Xu Yu?" Jiang Yeping looked at him and asked.

"In the toilet, don't you know men have to go to the toilet when they go out?"

Chu Zhaozhao pointed at the toilet and said to Jiang Yiping helplessly.

Jiang Yiping lowered her head and smiled.

"You came here just to bring me some local specialties, right?"

Chu Zhaozhao weighed the thing in her hand. It was quite heavy, but she couldn't smell it.

"No, I'm looking for Xu Yu." Jiang Yeping said hesitantly.

Chu Zhaozhao had no doubt that Jiang Yeping would do something bad to her, so she called out to Xu Yu towards the toilet.

"Xu Yu, hurry up, Yiping wants to see you."

"It's okay, don't rush him. People have three urgent things to do, and this kind of thing can't be rushed." Jiang Yeping said considerately.

Xu Yu didn't know what Jiang Yeping could want to talk to him about, but since Chu Zhaozhao urged him, he acted faster.

"I'll go down and wait for you guys first. Xu Yu, I have a bag over there. Please carry it down for me later."

Chu Zhaozhao slipped away after she finished speaking, without giving them any time to speak.

"Is there anything Zhao Zhao needs to say to avoid suspicion?" Xu Yu asked with a frown.

"Yesterday, Li Haonan and I almost let something slip. Zhao Zhao only knows that Li Haonan grew up in an orphanage, but doesn't know that he and Zhao Zhao were in the same orphanage. She doesn't know anything about what happened later. Li Haonan doesn't want Zhao Zhao to know, so if Zhao Zhao asks, you should know what to say, right?"

Jiang Yeping asked tentatively, and Xu Yu nodded woodenly.

"But she'll find out sooner or later."

Jiang Yeping did not deny it, but just told Xu Yu to come later if possible.

"Some things might not cause as many misunderstandings if they were said earlier. If it's delayed, the misunderstandings will only increase. Besides, now..."

Xu Yu thought about it and felt that now was not a good time to explain this matter.

"Yeah, Li Haonan said that too. But if we don't say anything, nothing will happen. If we say it, it will only cause more trouble. I think we should not act rashly."

Jiang Yiping was afraid that Xu Yu would disagree, so she kept watching Xu Yu's eyes.

"Okay, don't keep Zhao Zhao waiting too long, go down quickly."

Jiang Yeping patted Xu Yu, and Xu Yu entered the elevator.

Xu Yu came to the underground parking lot, found the target vehicle, and sat in the back seat.

"It's over so quickly?" Chu Zhaozhao sighed.

"Shouldn't you ask me what Jiang Yiping and I talked about next?" Xu Yu asked Chu Zhaozhao.

Chu Zhaozhao snorted, indicating that she was not interested in knowing.

"It's about Director Zheng's play. Jiang Yiping said if I audition, I should let her know and she would go with me."

Xu Yu confessed voluntarily, and Chu Zhaozhao did not doubt it much, but just thought it was a reasonable thing to do.
