Qiao Weiyang and Su Zhuoqian sat together. Jin Lan naturally wanted to sit with Qiao Weiyang. Xu Wangzhi patted the seat beside him. “Jin Lan, come sit next to me.”
Jin Lan also thought that it was not good to be a third wheel, so she sat down beside Xu Wangzhi.
In this way, they were basically sitting in pairs except for Lu Mingjue.
“Come, on behalf of myself and Jin Lan, I’ll give a toast to Weiyang and
President Su. I wish you a happy life.”
Xu Wangzhi raised his glass, and so did Jin Lan.
When Lu Mingjue saw this, his eyebrows twitched even more.
Qiao Weiyang and Su Zhuoqian drank the contents in their glasses. Qiao Weiyang smiled and said, “Thank you. Jin Lan, is your new show also in the publicity stage?”
“That’s right. I’ve specially made time for publicity during this period of time,” Jin Lan said with a smile. “I heard from the investors that it’s being broadcasted quite well.”
Xu Wangzhi put his hand on the back of Jin Lan’s chair and looked at Lu
Mingjue provocatively. “I saw that the fans on the internet say that Jin Lan and I are very compatible. The investors also said that we should try our best to seize the opportunity and do our best to increase the viewership ratings.” “Congratulations on your popularity.” Qiao Weiyang raised her glass.
Jin Lan was about to drink when Xu Wangzhi said, “Drink less wine. Otherwise, you’ll feel uncomfortable again.”
“Oh, okay. But Weiyang gave me a toast. I should finish it no matter what.” Jin Lan finished all the wine in her glass.
Xu Wangzhi immediately handed her a tissue to wipe the corners of her lips.
Sensing that his actions were a little too intimate, Jin Lan immediately took the tissue and said in a low voice, “I can do it myself.”
“Don’t be embarrassed. The next time we have activities together, the investors will have us kiss on the spot,” Xu Wangzhi said. “You have to get used to it.”
As soon as he said the word ‘kiss’, he felt the atmosphere in the event location turn a little cold.
As for who was releasing the cold air, he didn’t need to see to know.
Jin Lan also sensed that the atmosphere was a little off. She asked in a low voice, “How could that be? Didn’t we both refuse before?”
Xu Wangzhi smiled but did not answer.
Lu Mingjue, who had been silent all this while, swirled the red wine in his glass and asked Qiao Weiyang, “By the way, Sister-in-law, do you usually do anything intimate with your male leads?”
Immediately, the atmosphere became even colder.
This time, Lu Mingjue lit a bigger fire.
Qiao Weiyang rolled her eyes at him speechlessly. He was the jealous one, so why was he starting a fire to burn her?
She smiled and held Su Zhuoqian’s arm. “I don’t need to. The dramas I’m filming aren’t all about romance. The romance in them is very conservative. Feelings can only be understood and not spoken of. I just need to act normally during working hours. There’s no need for intimate actions at all. On the other hand, Jin Lan is filming a romance drama this time. Some intimate publicity can’t be avoided.”
Her words kicked back all the flames that Lu Mingjue had lit on Su Zhuoqian’s side to Lu Mingjue himself.
Xu Wangzhi immediately nodded. “That’s right, Jin Lan. Why don’t we try to act more intimate now?”
Jin Lan was a little embarrassed. She glanced at Lu Mingjue and saw that he was gulping down wine with a nonchalant expression. She asked in a low voice, “Why don’t we forget about it?”
“It’s okay. We’re not outsiders anyway. Jin Lan, are you worried that you’ll develop feelings for me?” Xu Wangzhi asked.
“I’m a professional too. I have my own principles when it comes to acting. How could I fall in love with the person I’m acting with?” Jin Lan immediately retorted.
Lu Mingjue’s expression improved a little. Before his expression could completely improve, he heard Xu Wangzhi say, “If you really grow to be interested in me, it’s not because of the role in the show but because you really have feelings for me, right?”
This question was asked to Jin Lan. If she said directly denied it, it would hurt Xu Wangzhi’s self-esteem, so she needed to be more tactful.
Before she could think of a tactful answer, Lu Mingjue’s glass slammed on the table. Jin Lan was shocked.
Qiao Weiyang and Su Zhuoqian seemed to have seen through all of this and looked at them calmly.
Xu Wangzhi said, “Weiyang, actually, I have a question to ask you.”
“Tell me.”
“If I fall in love with an actress I’m shooting with, will she think that I like her only because of my role?”
Lu Mingjue snorted. “What do you mean by like or dislike? It’s all because of lust.”
“Mr. Mingjue, you’re wrong. Everyone loves beautiful things. Of course, it’s normal for a man to fall in love with a beautiful woman,” Xu Wangzhi said. “There’s nothing bad about daring to admit that you like someone, right?” “Do you act in shows just to prey on women?” Lu Mingjue asked.
“Anyway, I’ve filmed so many shows, but there’s only one person I like.”
Lu Mingjue snorted. “You make it sound like you’re loyal. Unfortunately, she might already be taken.”
“As long as you play the game right, there’s nothing you can’t win. Besides, some people don’t cherish what they have.”
Their words began to carry gunpowder.
Jin Lan quickly tugged at the corner of Xu Wangzhi’s shirt and said in a low voice, “Alright, that’s enough.”
She wanted to remind Xu Wangzhi not to test Lu Mingjue anymore, but in Lu Mingjue’s opinion, she was protecting Xu Wangzhi and even whispering to him.
Lu Mingjue’s expression turned even uglier. “Is it glorious to be a mistress?” “The person you really love isn’t a mistress,” Xu Wangzhi said calmly.
“Xu Wangzhi!” Lu Mingjue suddenly stood up. “Are you looking for a fight?”
“Hey, Mr. Mingjue, what are you doing? It’s not like I stole your woman. Do you have to do this? Right, Jin Lan? What’s wrong with him?” He lowered his head and spoke to Jin Lan in an even more intimate tone.
“I can’t stand your worldview!”
“What’s wrong with my worldview? It’s my freedom to like whoever I want! If you have the ability, don’t let her like me!”
Lu Mingjue rushed over and grabbed his collar. “If you want to be beaten up, I’ll let you have your wish!”
Xu Wangzhi was not to be outdone. “Come on, I’m not afraid of you!”
The two of them quickly fought.
Jin Lan did not understand why they were fighting. She could not get close to them at all.
“President Su, Weiyang, look..
Su Zhuoqian left his seat with Qiao Weiyang and said calmly, “Let’s stand farther away so that their blood won’t splash on us.”
Jin Lan:
Qiao Weiyang laughed. Su Zhuoqian had seen through their little tricks, right? He couldn’t be bothered to play such a childish game with them..
