The news about the Qiao family spread like wildfire.
Although many people paid attention to the secrets of the wealthy families, everyone’s knowledge was limited. Only the matters of celebrities were easier for everyone to gossip about.
The news of Qiao Weiyang being proposed to by a rich man quickly spread throughout the fan circle.
She had already said that she had someone she liked, so her fans did not care at all and gave her their blessings.
A big fan mentioned Qiao Weiyang’s other half confidently. Although he didn’t say his name, he kept praising that man. Be it his family background, character, or appearance, he was compatible with Qiao Weiyang!
The fans were relieved.
However, the anti-fans did not think so.
The scene of Qiao Weiyang being proposed to that day was too grand. There were even rumors that the man who proposed was actually Su Zhuoqian!
Most people did not believe it!
Who was Su Zhuoqian? He was the dream of tens of millions of women in Jingdu City. He was rich enough to rival a country and had outstanding ability. He had never chosen a lady for himself even after so many years!
How could he have proposed to Qiao Weiyang?
Hype! It must be sensational news released by Qiao Weiyang’s team to hype her up!
No matter how Qiao Weiyang’s big fan swore that he was at the scene and saw the proposal with his own eyes, the anti-fans refused to believe it!
[Qiao Weiyang is too good at flattering herself.]
[Qiao Weiyang dares to hype herself up, and her fans really dare to dream! They’re even dreaming of Su Zhuoqian! Tsk tsk!]
The anti-fans obviously refused to believe this.
However, no matter what, Qiao Weiyang’s relationship was undoubtedly confirmed.
She then posted something on Weibo.
[I’ve said before that I already have someone I like and my relationship is stable. Please don’t speculate casually. Apart from the fact that I didn’t hold a wedding, everything else has been confirmed. Thank you for your concern.]
These words naturally reassured the fans.
Many people also vaguely guessed that she was married.
As for whether it would affect her career or not, it was not that important to the current Qiao Weiyang.
She had already won the awards she deserved, and she did not rely on traffic to get resources. Hence, announcing her relationship was not something that her fans could not accept.
In order to celebrate Qiao Weiyang’s complete departure from the Qiao family, Xu Wangzhi invited her to dinner with Su Zhuoqian and Jin Lan.
Xu Wangzhi had just returned from filming overseas. He had tanned a lot and looked much thinner and more stylish than before.
Qiao Weiyang walked up to him. Her skin color was a stark contrast to his.
Xu Wangzhi scratched his head. “There were many beach scenes, so I was exposed to the sun a lot.”
“Not bad. You’re more handsome than before,” Qiao Weiyang said with a smile and officially introduced Su Zhuoqian to Xu Wangzhi.
“Today is the first time we’re having such a formal meal. President Su, you have to drink more later,” Xu Wangzhi teased him and looked at Qiao Weiyang.
“You’re not allowed to stop me.”
“Am I supposed to watch you get drunk, then?” Qiao Weiyang said half-jokingly.
As they spoke, Jin Lan came over.
She was carrying a fashionable small bag. Her clothes were different from before. Her development had been quite smooth recently, and her acting skills were getting more and more recognized.
Seeing Su Zhuoqian, she smiled. “President Su and Mr. Mingjue do look a little similar.”
“Good-looking people are a little similar,” Xu Wangzhi said.
“This place is not bad. The flowers outside actually bloomed so early,” Jin Lan said as she looked outside.
“I was just about to go out and take a look.” Qiao Weiyang had long seen the flowers outside.
“I’ll go with you,” Su Zhuoqian said.
Jin Lan was about to follow when Xu Wangzhi grabbed her wrist. “Are you going to be a third-wheeler?”
Only then did Jin Lan realize that she had almost become a third wheel. She stopped in her tracks.
“Mr. Mingjue will be here soon. You can stay here.”
“You even invited Lu Mingjue?” Jin Lan was surprised. Why hadn’t she heard Lu Mingjue mention it before?
Lu Mingjue clearly went to her apartment last night. “He’s Weiyang’s manager. Why can’t I invite him?”
“That’s true,” Jin Lan said in a low voice.
“Hey, let me ask you. How far have you progressed with Mr. Mingjue?” Xu Wangzhi looked at her with a gossipy look.
“It’s… It’s just like that…”
“If you don’t put in more effort, it’ll always be just like that.”
Jin Lan picked up her teacup and took a sip. Her eyes darted around. She didn’t seem to have anything that she could use to distract herself with.
She could not understand what Lu Mingjue was thinking at all.
He often came to eat with her. Sometimes, he even stayed over, but he did not do anything out of line.
Even if he stayed over, he would sleep on the sofa.
Jin Lan benefited from his care. Although she did not get any additional resources, she was finally free from those who wanted to sleep with her in the past. She was still grateful to him.
As for further development… She blushed. Anyway, he didn’t have that intention, so she wouldn’t be tempted.
Compared to her career, someone like her, who had no one to rely on, was not qualified to date in the entertainment industry.
“Hello, Jin Lan?” Xu Wangzhi grabbed her arm.
“Huh?”
“Do you really like him, then?”
Jin Lan subconsciously wanted to nod, but she immediately shook her head.
Xu Wangzhi could tell that she had something on her mind.
If the two of them continued to waste their time like this, it would take years and months before they could figure out what was on each other’s minds.
“If you really like him, then test if he really likes you. It’s not very difficult.
Otherwise, leave it to me.”
“Hey, Xu Wangzhi, don’t do anything rash. It’s not that easy to test. Besides,
I’ve said that I don’t want to be in a relationship.”
“Alright, leave it to me.”
Qiao Weiyang and Su Zhuoqian came back from looking at the flowers. Jin Lan immediately ran toward Qiao Weiyang. “Are they very beautiful? Did you take any photos?”
“Yes. Jin Lan, don’t you need to take publicity photos? You can invite the cameraman here to take photos next time. The view and scenery are very good.”
Jin Lan nodded. “Okay, then I’ll make an appointment here to shoot.” “What are you shooting?” Lu Mingjue walked in with his coat over his arm.
“I’m talking to Jin Lan about getting her publicity photos taken over there.” Qiao Weiyang pointed at the flowers outside.
Lu Mingjue took a look. “The scenery over there is good.”
“Right? Jin Lan, bring me along when the time comes.” Xu Wangzhi stepped forward and stood beside Jin Lan, closing in the distance between them.” When Lu Mingjue saw this, his eyebrows twitched.
Xu Wangzhi pretended not to see it and said, “Since everyone is here, I’ll have them serve the dishes.”
The waiter quickly came in to clear the table. The dishes that had been ordered were quickly served..
