Chapter 848: Purposeful

"Oh! It's Miss Shen!"

In the private room, someone finally recognized the figure at the door, their tone instantly becoming enthusiastic and flattering, "Miss Shen is also here for dinner today?"

As soon as the words fell, someone immediately stood up in response, waving enthusiastically: "Miss Shen, long time no see! Come in, let's have a drink together!"

Shen Ci's lips curled into a smile that wasn't quite a smile, but her gaze went over everyone and landed accurately on Wang Ziyu in the corner.

She looked panicked, her clothes in front were splashed with a large area of wine when she pushed back just now, and she looked embarrassed and pitiful.

In an instant, the image of A-Li in her past life flashed through Shen Ci's mind. Two young faces overlapped in front of her, and that deep-seated heartache and compassion made her decide to protect this girl almost instinctively.

"Sorry, I disturbed everyone's elegance." Shen Ci's tone was still gentle, without any waves. This was her territory, and doing business is about harmony and wealth. What's more, she didn't come here today to quarrel.

She looked up at Wang Ziyu in the corner, raised her eyebrows slightly, and her voice clearly reached over: "Ziyu."

Wang Ziyu, who was named, stiffened and shivered uncontrollably. She looked around blankly, and only then did she hesitantly cast her gaze toward the dazzling figure at the door, her eyes full of horror and confusion.

She was scared to death.

Seeing this, Shen Ci walked over directly and reached out to pull her up under Wang Ziyu's astonished gaze: "Come out with me."

Wang Ziyu looked at Shen Ci's hand. She didn't know the beautiful sister in front of her, but she wanted to follow her in her heart.

She didn't want to stay in this suffocating private room for even a second longer.

"Eh?" Seeing this, Li Jianli was anxious and hurriedly reached out to stop her. He looked at Shen Ci up and down, his eyes full of scrutiny and vigilance, and asked in a rough voice: "Who are you? Where are you taking Ziyu?"

Shen Ci looked at the man in front of her who was as thin as a monkey, her long, narrow eyes narrowed slightly, and her tone carried a bit of coolness: "You are Ziyu's manager, right?"

"Yes, who are you?" Li Jianli frowned and asked.

Today's game was something he had spent a lot of effort to bring Ziyu into. The people sitting in the private room were all big bosses and big sponsors who could stir up the film and television circle. Such an opportunity, for a newcomer like Wang Ziyu who had no background and no resources, was simply a shortcut to reach the sky in one step! As long as these big shots were coaxed to be happy, why worry about not having good resources?

Therefore, he absolutely would not allow Wang Ziyu to leave at this juncture!

Just then, someone in the private room couldn't help but laugh, their tone carrying a bit of sarcasm: "I said Old Li, you don't even recognize Miss Shen, how do you mix in this circle?"

Laughter followed. Li Jianli daring to speak to Shen Ci like this was undoubtedly having eyes but not recognizing Mount Tai.

Li Jianli looked confused, but Shen Ci was too lazy to talk nonsense with such a person, and just said coldly: "You can go and inquire if you don't recognize me, my name is Shen Ci."

"As for Ziyu..." Shen Ci looked at Wang Ziyu and continued: "Her next play was recommended and invested by me. Director Yang Guochun said that she needs to lose twenty pounds when she starts filming according to the role requirements, so she can't drink!"

Shen Ci's reason was a bit lame. Everyone present was an old fox, and they knew Shen Ci was talking nonsense as soon as they heard it.

Shen Ci herself knew it very well. But she had to have a reason to take someone away at this moment. Or rather, it was to give everyone present a step down.

If she didn't say anything and just took the person away so stiffly, it would be too disrespectful to these people in the private room.

Therefore, the truth of the reason didn't matter at all. What mattered was that Shen Ci needed a reason to speak, and others also needed a reason to give her face.

Shen Ci held Wang Ziyu's hand, her gaze swept over everyone in the private room, her tone was peaceful, but it carried a kind of invisible pressure: "My actor, I'll take her away first today. Everyone should have no opinion, right?"

Everyone's faces were immediately filled with smiles, waving their hands one after another, their tone extremely polite: "Of course no opinion! Since it's Miss Shen's actor, then Miss Shen please do as you please!"

"Please do as you please, please do as you please!"

Everyone's faces were smiling, clearly understanding Miss Shen's meaning.

Everyone was a smart person, and their hearts were as clear as a mirror. What kind of game was this game today? Who among the people present didn't know? Miss Shen suddenly appeared and insisted on taking away this little girl, her purpose was already obvious—she wanted to protect this girl.

A newcomer actor who was unknown, they naturally didn't need to offend Miss Shen for such a person.

They also couldn't afford to offend her!

The people present spoke one after another. Shen Ci made up a reason to give them face, and these people naturally would give Shen Ci face.

Shen Ci looked at Li Jianli with cold eyes again.

Even if Li Jianli was stupid, it wasn't hard to see that the identity of the beauty in front of him was unusual, and the big shots present were clearly flattering her, and no one dared to stop her from beginning to end!

His face changed, and he smiled flatteringly: "Hey! Ziyu didn't tell me about losing weight, if I had known earlier, I wouldn't have let her drink!"

"Then you know now?"

"Know, know." Li Jianli nodded repeatedly, looking like a dog's leg.

Shen Ci pulled Wang Ziyu out of the private room directly, and Wang Ziyu also guessed Shen Ci's identity at this time, which was the big shot sister behind Shen Li.

Actually came to help her out in person, it must be Shen Li helping her behind her back.

"Sister, thank you."

Out of the private room and walking to the lobby, surrounded by guests and waiters, Wang Ziyu finally had some sense of security. She took the initiative to stop and thank Shen Ci: "I was a bit confused just now, didn't react at the first time, sorry."

"It's okay, how are you? Are you okay?" Shen Ci asked with concern.

"I'm fine, sister." Wang Ziyu shook her head, looked down at the red wine stain on her clothes, and said in a low voice: "My clothes are dirty, so I won't go over. I will say thank you to Sister Shen Li on WeChat."

After saying this, she bowed deeply to Shen Ci. This move was clumsy but real, and Shen Ci could see her simple nature.

Wang Ziyu turned and ran away. Shen Ci didn't call her back, but returned to the private room directly.

"Sister, where is Ziyu?"

Guangrong was the most anxious, rushed up in one step, and kept looking behind his sister while speaking.

"She left, she should have just gone downstairs, you can still catch up if you go now." Shen Ci said.

Guangrong was stunned for a moment, and before he could hesitate, Shen Li stepped forward and pushed him: "You hurry down and see, it's best if you can send her back."

With Shen Li's push, Guangrong nodded and ran out.

Shen Yingying looked confused: "A-Ci, what's wrong? What did Guangrong go to do?"

"It's okay, Little Aunt, he just met a friend, go and see." Shen Ci said, patting her sister's shoulder: "Don't worry, it's okay."

With her sister coming out, Shen Li was naturally at ease. At the same time, she received a message from Wang Ziyu on her phone, thanking Sister Shen Li for helping her out.

"Ziyu! Ziyu!"

Chasing downstairs, Guangrong saw Wang Ziyu waiting for a car on the side of the road.

"Guangrong." Wang Ziyu saw Guangrong and took the initiative to step forward. Seeing him anxious, she couldn't help but comfort him: "I'm fine, you go back quickly."

"I'm done eating, my sister asked me to send you back, you wait for me here, I'll go get the car!" Guangrong said, turning his head and running toward the parking space in the square, looking back while running, for fear that Wang Ziyu would run away by herself.

Wang Ziyu couldn't help but laugh looking at his tall back.
