Chapter 306
"Why did you come back alone? Where is Lele?" Ceng Xiangyi looked behind Li Yiquan and asked.
"She went out for something."
"You didn't go with her?"
"... Mom."
"Fine, fine, fine. Retreating to advance, retreating to advance. However, girl, being cautious in a case is a good thing, but if you are too cautious in matters of the heart... once you miss something, you might not have a chance to make it up! I actually hope you—will be impulsive for once."
"..." Li Yiquan didn't respond again and went upstairs to his room.
The look she gave him before answering the phone at noon was so panicked and timid; he couldn't set his mind at ease, so he followed to check. He naturally knew Wu Ming, but he didn't think she was panicked because of Wu Ming. After Wu Ming left, he weighed things back and forth and finally prepared to knock on the door to check on her situation, only to find her with a bag, about to go out.
He didn't follow, because he knew she wouldn't want him to.
Happy...
He Lele rushed to the airport with her shadow-like bodyguard, only to find out that Wu Ming had changed to an earlier flight. He Lele, who had originally planned to go to C City to take a look, didn't say a word and swiped her card to buy a ticket. The bodyguard's ticket was purchased by himself, with Zhai Feiyun responsible for the final reimbursement; she didn't act coy about calculating these things, hurriedly passed through security, and waited for the flight.
C City was a famous tourist city; the city's architecture and landscaping were very distinctive. But sitting in the taxi, He Lele had no interest in sightseeing. She was considering how to explain her appearance after meeting Zhai Feiyun and Qin Zhixiu later...
"Here to see Ruan Lin?"
Without needing her to speak, the first sentence Zhai Feiyun said when he received her call and went down to the lobby on the first floor of the TV station to pick her up killed all her prepared excuses.
"Mr. Wu Ming came to see me at noon and left his phone behind." He Lele struggled at least a little.
"Let's go, I'll take you over. They are in rehearsal."
Zhai Feiyun's indifferent tone seemed like tolerance after seeing through her. Looking at his tall, straight back, He Lele hesitated for a few seconds. When he stopped and turned back to wait for her, looking at his still handsome and dashing eyes, she walked up and held his large hand.
His handsome eyebrows jumped slightly, and Zhai Feiyun looked down in surprise at his hand.
"Let's go." A moment later, gripping the small hand in his, Zhai Feiyun smiled gently.
He... was gradually beginning to understand Mu Wei's meaning.
Even if it hurt, even if he was reluctant, he was slowly being satisfied and finding peace of mind. If he hadn't taken this step, what would the consequences have been? Let her suffer and cry in his entanglement? Or give her up and return to a dull and boring life?
Fortunately.
Holding her hand and bringing it to his lips for a light kiss, he glanced sideways at her surprised and shy, sweet appearance. A kind of indescribable, dashing air flowed across Zhai Feiyun's handsome face, causing those who saw it unintentionally, regardless of gender, to forget their words and actions in an instant, as if they had been hit by a freezing spell, standing in place until he led He Lele past before they suddenly woke up.
"Who was that just now? An actor? I don't think I've seen him? His temperament is so... special..."
"Actor my foot, that's Qin Zhixiu's manager, the top-tier ace manager in the circle, Muse's Young Master Ji!"
"Ah... he really has such temperament! A truly top-tier rich and handsome man! I'm so envious of his girlfriend..."
"Alright! Stop being a fangirl. In this circle, you'd better be calm about everything you see."
"Then Sister Zhang, didn't you just stare at him too?"
"You, you little girl!"
In the No. 1 Studio of C City Radio and Television, according to the schedule, the rehearsal should have ended by this time, and the audience should have been arranged to enter for the official recording. However, the studio was strangely quiet. Seeing this, Zhai Feiyun took He Lele directly to the backstage dressing room.
Just after greeting Qin Zhixiu, a staff member from the TV station came over to ask for help.
"Young Master Ji, look, please help persuade him. Brother Lin's state really can't be recorded. If the audience enters later and he's still like this, and they upload it to the internet, we really won't be able to control it."
"Got it, I'll go over in a bit."
"Thank you, Young Master Ji, thank you, Young Master Ji!"
"Not at all, it's caused you trouble. Please take good care of Muse's artists."
"Young Master Ji is too polite! Too polite! Then I'll head out first!"
"... Ruan Lin, what's wrong with him?" He Lele asked hesitantly.
Zhai Feiyun gestured with his chin toward Qin Zhixiu.
Qin Zhixiu peeled a mandarin orange and handed it to He Lele. "He hasn't had any expression since he appeared. He follows the blocking and says his lines, but he just... has no expression at all."
Standing outside Ruan Lin's dressing room, He Lele held Wu Ming's phone, raising her hand for a long time without knocking.
Zhai Feiyun simply knocked on the door for her.
Wu Ming opened the door and, seeing He Lele, his eyes lit up instantly. "Ruan Lin, Miss He is here!"
Without waiting for He Lele to react, Wu Ming looked at the phone in her hand, thanked her repeatedly, and walked out of the room, half-pushing and half-guiding He Lele into the room.
Turning her head to watch the door close behind her, He Lele didn't dare to turn her head back for a long while. ===== CHAPTER 307 =====
