Yan Yan's heart skipped a beat. She was still wondering why he was so cooperative and sent her over to attend her friend's birthday party?
In fact, he had known that Zhu Qingqing was celebrating her birthday here.
"That's okay," Yan Yan said to Zhu Qingqing: "He is at the bar on the first floor. You can go find him yourself."
After speaking, Yan Yan went downstairs from the other side of the corridor and left.
She knew there was a side entrance to the bar and was going to go out through the side entrance.
"Yan Yan!" As soon as she arrived near the side door, she suddenly heard a voice calling her.
She turned her head in confusion and saw Wu Ruian walking quickly in front of her.
"Boss Wu?" She couldn't help but be surprised. Is it such a coincidence?
"I heard someone said you are here and came here specifically to find you," Wu Ruian said.
"busy?"
"Let's talk in the box upstairs," Wu Ruian replied, "about the movie."
Yan Yan followed him into a quiet box, and they were the only two people in the box.
Once the box door is closed, the space becomes cramped.
"Please sit down." Wu Ruian greeted gently and sat down in the middle of the sofa.
There was only a single sofa in the box, and he occupied the middle position. Yan Yan would sit next to him regardless of whether she chose the left or the right.
"I'll just stand." Yan Yan stood still by the window.
"I asked Miss Fu to tell you that Zhu Qingqing wants to play the leading female role in a movie." Wu Ruian picked up a bottle of red wine and poured it into the glass.
Yan Yan nodded.
Fu Yuan'er said that when Wu Ruian and Zhu Qingqing were talking, she hid in the small room and eavesdropped.
"Do you want to know why I sold the contract of the number one female lead to Cheng Yiming?" Wu Ruian asked.
Yan Yan raised her lips slightly, and there was no harm in listening to what he was willing to say.
"Because..." Wu Ruian stood up and walked slowly to her with a wine glass in his hand, "I have no experience. I thought Cheng Yiming would handle matters related to the female lead, which would attract more attention to you."
His deep eyes were full of affection.
Yan Yan was startled and quickly looked away. She felt that she must have had an illusion.
"Cheng Yiming...promised you like this?" She tried to change the subject.
But he handed the wine glass to her hand. She didn't want it, but he held the wine glass and her hand together.
The temperature in his palm was so hot that she instinctively wanted to avoid it, but he held it tighter.
"He told me," Wu Ruian's eyes were also burning, "I will only agree if he can make you famous and give you what you want."
Yan Yan couldn't help but be stunned. He made such a promise to Wu Ruian, but canceled the plan to announce that she would be the female lead at the reception.
Is he lying to Wu Ruian or to her?
At this time, the box door was suddenly pushed open, and Cheng Yiming appeared at the door.
Yan Yan's hand was held in Wu Ruian's, and the two looked at each other, only a few centimeters apart... Cheng Yiming's lips raised a smile: "You are here."
But these words were spoken with a chill to the bone, like nails being driven into the ground one by one.
Yan Yan shuddered from the bottom of her heart and instinctively broke away from Wu Ruian's hand.
Wu Ruian was thoughtful, then turned to face Cheng Yiming: "What a coincidence, Mr. Cheng, I am discussing the movie with Yan Yan, do you want to come with me?"
"What's going on in the movie?" Cheng Yiming asked.
"As for the female lead, the reception tonight was not specially held for the female lead. Why didn't Mr. Cheng reveal any information?" Wu Ruian pointed out the crux of the problem.
He understood very well that this was the sore point between Yan Yan and Cheng Yiming. Sure enough, Cheng Yiming's face changed slightly.
"Actually, I understand you very well," Wu Ruian continued: "In this circle, no one dares to offend Mr. Yang easily. I have no objection to you arranging Zhu Qingqing to play the female lead, but I plan to arrange the next one for Yan Yan.
It’s a drama, so don’t get involved anymore.”
If Cheng Yiming had not been involved this time, Zhu Qingqing would never have involved Mr. Yang.
The cold light in Cheng Yiming's eyes fell on Yan Yan's face: "You think so too?"
Yan Yan didn't think so.
What she wanted was the female lead in "Warm Sun Shines", not Wu Ruian's resources.
But there is no need to tell Cheng Yiming and Wu Ruian what she thinks.
"Boss, stop joking," she said with a sweet smile, pretending to be relaxed, "My work is all arranged by the company and my agent, I don't make the final decision."
"You can set up your own studio, I support you." Wu Ruian looked at her with dazed eyes.
The way she smiles is so beautiful.
Yan Yan was slightly stunned, she was not a little girl, she understood his gaze.
But she didn't expect that he would be so straightforward that it would be too late for her to hide.
"Thank you, Boss Wu..." She wanted to say that she had no such idea for the time being.
Cheng Yiming snorted disdainfully, interrupting her words, "Boss Wu," he chuckled sarcastically, "Investment can be placed in many places. Why invest in a project that you know will lose money?"
"Really?" Wu Ruian smiled slightly: "Mr. Cheng's vision for projects may not be accurate for everyone."
The smell of gunpowder escalated instantly.
Yan Yan didn't want to join their "battle situation" at all, "Sorry, I have to go to the bathroom."
She walked quickly to the door, and Cheng Yiming leaned against the doorframe, occupying most of the doorway.
She was clearly going out, but he didn't move at all as if he hadn't noticed her.
"Mr. Cheng," she said, trying hard to smile, "please give in."
Cheng Yiming then turned his gaze and looked her up and down: "Yan Yan, did you bring me here to attend Mr. Wu's birthday party?"
The sarcasm in his eyes showed that he was deliberately looking for trouble.
But she didn't want to involve Wu Ruian and make things more complicated.
"Boss Wu and I have finished talking, let's go to the party now." She thought for a while and deliberately took Cheng Yiming's arm.
Cheng Yiming's eyes flashed, his coldness suddenly became less cold, and he let her hold hands and leave.
Wu Ruian opened his mouth, but the words on his lips had no time to come out.
When the two came to the corridor, Cheng Yiming took out the arm held by her, hugged her shoulders tightly, and held her firmly in his arms.
She raised her head in confusion, and he was staring down at her: "I still underestimated you. How many men do you have that I don't know about?"
Yan Yan clicked her tongue and felt funny in her heart. Why should he ask her like this and ask her to be loyal to him?
"Don't accuse me wrongly. How could I have any other man besides you?"
Well, does that mean he is happy?
He saw the disdain in her eyes at a glance. She just said something that even he didn't believe.
However, he felt relieved. Finally, she was willing to please him... He actually had such thoughts!
He couldn't help but tighten his grip on Yan Yan's shoulders.
Yan Yan felt his disgust from the bottom of her heart and sneered in her heart. She tried her best to get ahead of Wu Ruian.
But it was fine if he started to dislike her. Once he disliked her, he would stop talking to her.
She will be free then...
So now, she needs to add more firewood.
Not far away, cheers kept coming from a box. It seemed that this was where Zhu Qingqing was holding a party.
Yan Yan stopped and said, "You go in first, I'll go to the bathroom."
This time he didn't hold her back and allowed her to let go and move forward, but before she could take a few steps, he suddenly pulled her back again.
"Want to run away again?" he asked in a low voice behind her ear.
"I……"
He just held her in his arms and led her to the door of the box.
Yan Yan quickly broke away from him, "I really want to go to the bathroom, why don't you wait for me here, and I will go in with you later."
She must not go in with him in an intimate manner, otherwise Zhu Qingqing would think she was just showing off.
Will she ever have a peaceful life in the future?
"Do you know what will happen if you lie to me?" He didn't let go.
Yan Yan looked at his cold eyes and suddenly wanted to understand something.
He already knew that she brought him to Zhu Qingqing's birthday party on purpose, and he wanted to use her trick to make her embarrassed!
Cheng Yiming is not only angry, but also playful.
"Cheng Yiming," she decided to tell him the truth, "you know the person inside is Zhu Qingqing, right?"
Cheng Yiming was slightly stunned, but he didn't expect that she would suddenly show off her cards.
He raised his eyebrows slightly, so what if you know?
"Since you know, just take pity on me," she said helplessly, "Zhu Qingqing won't be able to see you tonight. She will definitely have trouble with me. I can't afford to offend her."
"You want me to spend her birthday with her?" Cheng Yiming's eyes gradually darkened.
"Isn't your relationship also very good? Zhu Qingqing likes you, don't you know it..." She didn't notice that his eyes were getting darker and darker, and dark clouds were gathering before a storm was coming.
"I'll go." He suddenly interrupted her, turned around, opened the door and walked into the box.
Yan Yan was stunned, she didn't expect him to agree so simply.
"Yiming!" Zhu Qingqing's joyful scream immediately came from the box.
Although she was across the door, Yan Yan seemed to have seen Zhu Qingqing rush over and hug Cheng Yiming tightly.
She let out a breath, left the bar alone, and went to the roadside to take a taxi.
I looked at the car I just took a taxi and saw that it would arrive in ten minutes.
