Chapter 724

Some things, for the sake of everyone's face, are best left unsaid.

Seeing that Reba's expression was very bad, Yang Mi couldn't bring herself to rub salt in her wounds and act like a high-and-mighty victor; after all, she and Ye Xuan hadn't truly confirmed their relationship yet.

She hurriedly changed the subject and talked to Reba about work.

"Reba, I've negotiated another script for you. This time it's a costume drama with a strong female lead. I think your current strength is fully capable of carrying the show. I believe in you."

Being a female lead is something every actor wants.

But Reba's breakout roles had always been supporting ones, so she suddenly felt a bit unconfident and spoke hesitantly.

"Sister Mi, I came to find you just to talk about this. I'm afraid I won't be able to act it well. Why don't I wait until I've honed my acting skills a bit more before taking on a female lead role?"

Yang Mi gave her a comforting look and said in a very certain tone.

"Don't worry, this is something my agent and I have discussed. This character is very likable. As long as you perform normally, you will definitely be a big hit. You must have confidence in yourself."

Reba, however, wasn't that optimistic and just wanted to refuse.

But facing her good friend and good boss, Da Mimi, the words she wanted to say in her heart didn't dare to come out, stuck in her throat, feeling terrible.

Simply, in the end, she slumped on the sofa and said mournfully.

"Fine, since you all say I can do it, then I'll go and try. If I don't succeed, I'll die trying."

Breathing a long sigh of relief, Yang Mi stood up and said, full of energy.

"Since you've figured it out, just act well. With our conditions being so good, we must strive to seize our own opportunities."

"Ye Xuan said he didn't eat lunch, so why don't the three of us go eat together?"

Reba thought of their relationship and subconsciously shook her head. She didn't want to be a third wheel, watching the person she liked on a date with her good friend.

She didn't have such strong willpower right now to witness their affection and remain indifferent. Since it would hurt, she might as well run far away; out of sight, out of mind.

Reba stood up in a panic and waved her hand.

"Sister Mi, I think there are still a few places in the script I just received that I can't understand. I'll go back and study it carefully, so I won't go eat with you. I wish you a pleasant meal."

Yang Mi saw the expression on her face as if she were about to cry, and for a moment, she couldn't bear it.

However, on second thought, long-term pain is worse than short-term pain. While Reba hadn't fallen too deeply in love yet, cutting off the thoughts early was the best way.

Seeing her about to leave, Yang Mi called out loudly.

"Teacher Ye Xuan, Reba is going back. Come out and see her off."

Reba hurriedly showed a flattered expression.

"No need, Sister Mi. Teacher Ye Xuan is usually so busy, really don't bother him. Let him rest well."

And just as her voice fell, Ye Xuan had already walked out and greeted her very calmly.

"Reba, why don't we go eat together in a while? Your Sister Mi said there's a newly opened restaurant here that's very delicious."

Originally, she had made up her mind to escape, but once she faced Ye Xuan and was under his invitation, Reba had absolutely no resistance and nodded woodenly.

"Okay, then I'll respectfully obey."

Ye Xuan looked at Yang Mi and said faintly.

"We're going to eat now, do you need to put on makeup again?"

Yang Mi straightened her back confidently and said with a smile.

"Teacher Ye Xuan, do you not like my bare face? We're just going out for dinner; there's no need to put on makeup again, right?"

Ye Xuan was amused by her actions and responded with a soft gaze.

"Fine, as long as you like it. I was just worried you'd be more concerned about your idol baggage."

"Since we don't need makeup, let's go. Let's go early and come back early."

Hearing him say "come back early," Reba blurted out a question.

"Teacher Ye Xuan, are you staying here tonight too?"

Not giving Ye Xuan a chance to answer, Yang Mi deliberately put on a shy look and hurriedly changed the subject, urging them.

"Alright, alright, let's hurry up and go, otherwise if it gets late, we'll have to wait in line."

Regarding waiting in line, Ye Xuan felt it was a complete waste of time and took the lead in walking out.

Yang Mi naturally followed closely behind. Before reaching the door, she didn't forget to turn back and wait for Reba. The three of them left the hotel one after another, not noticing at all that this scene had been captured by paparazzi.

When the three of them rushed over, it wasn't peak time yet. Considering they were all public figures, they directly asked for a private room.

After sitting down, Yang Mi pushed the menu directly to Reba and said with a smile.

"Reba, you order first. This is Teacher Ye Xuan's treat, so don't be polite."

Thinking it was just an ordinary treat, Ye Xuan couldn't be bothered to dwell on the meaning behind it and chimed in.

"Right, I'm treating, feel free to order whatever you want."
