When the phone was connected, Lin Xi had quickly adjusted her state.
"Hello?"
"Did you call it a day?"
"I just finished changing my clothes and taking off my makeup."
Xu Qian chuckled softly and said in a soft voice, "What a coincidence, I just arrived.
Miss Lin, would you like to give me a chance to have dinner together?"
"Okay, where are you?"
"Lower the car windows."
Lin Xi lowered the window and saw Xu Qian, wearing a casual beige sweater and a black cashmere coat, holding a cell phone and looking at her with a smile.
It's getting dark.
The evening breeze is slightly cool.
He has a slender figure, broad shoulders and narrow waist, but his smile is softer and warmer than the warm sunshine in March. Lin Xi's heart almost melted. She waved to Xu Qian, Xu Qian's smile deepened, he hung up the phone and put it on the
Pocket, "Get off."
Lin Xi blushed, put her bag on her back, and quickly got out of the car.
At this time, the crew was finishing up their work. There were a lot of people on site and a lot of things. There were messy wires on the ground. The two of them walked out side by side. Xu Qian slowed down. When people moved things closer to her, they would be separated.
Staff, don't let others touch her.
Lin Xi felt warm in her heart.
When she was with Xu Qian, she felt like a little princess who was pampered all the time.
She thought to herself that An Nuannuan might have bad eyesight or something wrong with her brain, otherwise why would she break up with such a gentle and considerate Xu Qian and choose Xiao Rui's thousand-year-old ice cube.
In her opinion.
Although Xiao Rui has a higher social status and his family is richer, his personality is too unpleasant and he never smiles all the time. He is like a debt collector. In real life, Xu Qian is more comfortable to get along with.
Xu Qian's car was parked outside the set, and the two of them walked there in a few minutes. Xu Qian was very gentlemanly. After arriving at the car, he walked around to the passenger side first, opened the door for Lin Xi, and waited for Lin Xi to get in the car.
He just got into the driver's seat.
He started the engine and the car drove slowly.
Lin Xi sent a message to her assistant to drive home. After the arrangements were made, she looked up and found that the car was driving in a different direction than usual. She was stunned and asked, "Where are we going?"
"I had a company dinner two days ago and found a Japanese restaurant nearby. The environment is very good and the taste is good. I will bring you to try it."
"oh."
Xu Qian glanced sideways at her and found that she had her head half lowered and looked uninterested, which was completely different from usual. He glanced at her and said, "In a bad mood?"
"..." He is so perceptive.
Does this mean that he cares about her very much, so he can detect even her subtle differences immediately?
Thinking of this, Lin Xi felt a little proud again.
Look, An Nuannuan.
I have now completely replaced your position in Xu Qian's heart and become someone he values.
Xiao Rui seemed to be a heartless person, and she was looking forward to the day when Xiao Rui would kick An Nuannuan.
When the time comes when she finds Xu Qian with her again, she will probably vomit blood.
"Lin Xi?"
"ah?"
Xu Qian slowed down the car and said, "I called you twice and I didn't hear you. Are you worried?"
If you encounter any trouble, remember to tell me if you encounter any trouble. Maybe I can help. Even if I can't help, I can still be a qualified listener."
What I was waiting for was his words.
But she couldn't take the initiative to say it. She looked at Xu Qian and hesitated to speak. After a while, she still shook her head and said, "Forget it, it's nothing."
Seeing this, Xu Qian parked the car directly on the side of the road. He turned his head and looked at Lin Xi, "Don't hide it from me. You can tell that something is wrong with you. Even I can't tell you what it is."
, I thought the two of us were already good friends, but in your heart, you never considered me a friend."
"of course not."
"Then tell me what happened."
Under his "force", Lin Xi confessed, "I did encounter something... Before finishing work today, Director Li talked to me, and then I realized how I, the heroine, came to be.
Didn't Mr. Xiao Yan of Huaxia Media hold a business reception some time ago? At that time, I had just auditioned for the heroine in a play directed by Li Jian, and I went to the reception with Director Li to try my luck to see if I could attract investment.
There were too many people at the cocktail party, and I was not sociable. After entertaining a few people, I felt troubled, so I ran to the terrace on the second floor to hide for a while.
Who knew that I would meet Xiao Rui, the president of Xiao Group, on the terrace."
She had been paying attention to Xu Qian's expression and found that when she mentioned "Xiao Rui", his expression changed slightly.
Too.
One is An Nuannuan's ex-boyfriend, and the other is her current boyfriend. It's normal for Xu Qian to react when he hears Xiao Rui's name.
Lin Xi really liked Xu Qian. Of course she didn't want Xu Qian to know that she had deliberately seduced Xiao Rui before. She only selectively told him what happened at the reception, "...I saw someone on the terrace at that time. I
I was planning to leave, but accidentally stepped on the curtain and almost fell down. Xiao Rui was next to me at the time, so he reached out and gave me a hand.
What a coincidence, that scene happened to be seen by someone at that time."
Lin Xi sighed and said, "Xiao Rui has a girlfriend. I was afraid that everyone would misunderstand, so I explained it immediately. I just didn't know whether others would believe it or not.
I regarded this incident as a minor incident and didn’t take it seriously, and after the reception that day, Director Li told me that I had secured investment.”
Xu Qian's eyes flashed again, "Is investment related to Xiao Rui?"
"Forget it."
Lin Xi looked very troubled, "Director Li came to see me today, and I found out that those investors thought that my relationship with Xiao Rui was like that. They invested in this drama to please Xiao Rui.
Today, investors came to Director Li and said that they wanted me to organize a dinner party and help them get to know Mr. Xiao, otherwise further investment would be difficult... But Mr. Xiao and I have only met each other a few times, and they probably don't even know me anymore.
I don’t know anything about it, but I really want to form this bureau, but they don’t know me, so how can they sell me this face?”
"..." Lin Xi cried sadly, "I thought I was the heroine of this drama because of my strength. If you know that others invested in it because they misunderstood that I have a relationship with Mr. Xiao, I would rather not take this drama.
But it has been so long since the filming started. If I resign now, Director Li and the staff will have been busy for nothing.
I really don’t know what to do now.”
Ha! Xu Qian didn't believe a word she said.
Xu Qian sneered in his heart, but frowned on his face, looking like he was deep in thought.
"Aqian, Aqian?"
"Um?"
"Don't think about it."
Lin Xi forced a smile and said, "This matter has nothing to do with you, so just leave it alone. I have already thought about it. I will go to the Xiao Group to find Mr. Xiao tomorrow and show my face to see if he will take it for granted.
Please help me for the sake of fate.
That's all I can do. If he doesn't help me, there's nothing he can do. If the investor gets angry... the worst is, I won't act anymore."
