Chapter 351 Lead Her Over
Seeing Fang Li's expression change, he immediately put on a gentle smile, "Teacher Xu, when did you come? I thought you would be with Mr. Han tonight and not come to see us!"
"How could that be? We are colleagues after all. I should come over and say hello anyway."
"Li Fan, Teacher Xu just said that you've been doing well recently. I hope you can keep up the good work."
"That's right. As long as you stick to your job and film well, Teacher Xu won't hold you accountable for your previous irrational behavior."
"Really!"
Li Fan looked at Xu Fangli excitedly and raised his glass to her. "Teacher Xu, don't worry. I will definitely get along well with everyone in the future and won't do those childish things again!"
Fang Li smiled, looked at the wine glass he was holding, and gently clinked it with his. "Okay, then I wish us a happy cooperation in the future."
“It’s a pleasure to work with you!”
After that, the atmosphere here became particularly good.
Everyone was chatting and joking from time to time, as if they were a really harmonious team.
Li Fan sat diagonally opposite Fang Li, interjecting from time to time with such a natural attitude as if all the previous conflicts had ceased to exist.
"Teacher Xu, I've read the rest of the script. The emotional twists and turns are truly amazing. I really didn't expect the emotional progression between the protagonists to be developed in this way!"
Li Fan said sincerely, raising his glass, "A toast to you."
Fang Li smiled faintly, touched the rim of her glass lightly with his, and took a sip.
"By the way, we're filming the script one segment at a time now. I heard the complete script has been written. When can we see the complete plot?"
Fang Li glanced at Li Fan and said, "The second half of the script is still in the revision stage, but it should be ready soon. You will definitely be able to see it once they shoot that part."
"Oh, that's a shame. Looks like I won't be able to sleep for a long time."
Li Fan pursed his lips with some regret, Fang Li took a sip of wine but smiled without saying anything.
After a while, Fang Li's glass of wine was almost empty. Coincidentally, a waiter came over with a tray. Li Fan waved at him and took all the wine on the tray.
He generously gave Fang Li a glass and smiled harmlessly: "Another glass? This champagne tastes quite good."
Zhu Shun and Li Huijie also took the wine on the table. Fang Li hesitated for a moment and reached out to take it.
Everyone had a drink in their hands, and they sat together, clinked glasses, and chatted for a while.
After chatting for about ten minutes, the topic gradually came to an end.
Fang Li made up an excuse and left. When she returned to her previous seat, she found that someone else had taken up the seat. She looked around but didn't see Wen Yang.
Fang Li looked around and found Zhou Yufan.
He was standing and chatting with Jingsen and several people from Wenxi Film and Television.
Fang Li went over and asked him, "Have you seen Yangyang?"
"No, isn't she with you?"
Fang Li frowned.
Zhou Yufan also looked around and saw that everyone was chatting and drinking happily. He said, "Maybe he just went to the bathroom. There are so many people here, so he won't be in trouble."
"Yeah, I know."
"How about I go with you to look for her?"
"It's okay, I'll go to the bathroom first and see if I can't find it."
Zhou Yufan nodded, and Fang Li turned and walked towards the bathroom.
The restroom of the banquet hall is at the innermost corner, connected to the hotel's fire escape, and on the other side are two east and west elevators that go directly to the guest rooms upstairs.
Fang Li followed the hotel signs all the way to the restroom. After entering the women's restroom, she called Wen Yang twice. When she got no response, she went in and pushed open the restroom doors one by one, only to find that they were all empty.
"Strange..." she murmured softly, taking out her cell phone to call Wen Yang.
Soon, the call was connected, but no one answered.
Fang Li called twice in a row, but no one answered.
She suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart. She just walked out and took out Yu Tian’s phone number to call him, when suddenly, she heard footsteps behind her.
"Teacher Xu?"
Fang Li frowned, but returned to normal in an instant when she turned around.
Behind him was indeed Li Fan, whom he had just separated from not long ago.
He looked slightly tipsy, but from the tone of his voice, one could tell that he was still sober.
"Are you looking for Miss Wen?"
A flash of alertness flashed through Fang Li's mind.
When did Li Fan meet Wen Yang?
How did he know she was looking for Wen Yang?
Fang Li curled her lips slightly and looked at him calmly: "Well, did you see her?"
Li Fan nodded, his tone concerned: "Miss Wen seems to have drunk too much and feels a little uncomfortable. I asked someone to send her to the room upstairs to rest."
Now, no matter how dumb Fang Li was, she could hear the problem.
Facing Li Fan's worried and sincere eyes, Fang Li's eyes darkened slightly, but her face remained expressionless: "Really? Which room?"
"The waiter found a random room, I think it's 1806. How about I take you there?"
Li Fan smiled and turned sideways to make a "please" gesture.
Fang Li stared into his eyes and suddenly smiled: "Okay, thank you for your help."
She looked calm on the outside, but her heart had turned cold.
Even if Li Fan didn't know when he met Wen Yang, he would never have thought that Wen Yang was not so easily drunk.
With Wen Yang's alcohol tolerance, two or three ordinary people would not be able to get her drunk, not to mention that she had just left for a short time, how could Wen Yang get drunk so quickly?
It is obvious that Li Fan is lying.
He probably wanted to use Wen Yang to lure her over.
He has been pretending to be so active and well-behaved during this period, but it seems that he can no longer hold it in.
Fang Li naturally knew that something bad might happen if she went there.
But...if Wen Yang is really in their hands, she can't just ignore it.
---
In the elevator.
Li Fan pressed the button for the 18th floor and stood beside Fang Li, saying in a natural tone, "Teacher Xu, although I've said this many times, I still want to apologize to you again for what happened before. Don't worry, I will definitely film well in the future and live up to your script."
Fang Li smiled slightly and didn't respond.
The elevator slowly rose, and she lightly pressed her fingertips on the side of the phone, and the emergency contact was automatically dialed.
At that time, in the lounge on the second floor of the banquet hall.
Han Xi was wondering why Fang Li hadn't come in yet and was about to get up to find her when the phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated. He had an idea and took out his phone to check the caller ID. His long brows immediately furrowed.
I swiped the screen quickly with my long finger, and the moment the call was connected, a male voice came from the other end:
"Miss Wen is in room 1806 up ahead. Don't worry, she's just a little dizzy... The hotel has provided hangover soup, and I've already arranged for someone to get it. She'll be fine after drinking it."
"Really? Sorry to bother you."
This sentence was spoken by Fang Li.
When Han Xi heard Fang Li's voice, his eyes suddenly turned cold and he immediately turned around and walked outside.
Tang Chen raised his eyebrows: "What happened?"
Han Xi didn't answer and directly called Lin Mo: "Fang Li was taken to the 18th floor by Li Fan. Block the elevator and stairs immediately."
Behind him, Tang Chen and Jian Yunqi, who were sitting on the sofa, suddenly changed their expressions when they heard this. They looked at each other, stood up together and followed Han Xi out.
