I'm Secretly Married to a Big Shot

Qiao Mianmian said, “No, I’m not that hungry, and I don’t usually eat much. If you think it’s not enough, you can order something else.”

Gong Zeli narrowed his eyes and stared at her for a while.

He took the menu and added a few more dishes. After ordering, he looked up at her and asked, “Do you like desserts?”

Qiao Mianmian replied, “…It’s alright.”

“Mm.”

After Gong Zeli asked, he looked at the menu for a while. After a few minutes, he pressed the service bell and called the waiter over.

After the waiter took the menu.

The room was unusually quiet.

The waiting process became a little long.

Qiao Mianmian felt awkward and uncomfortable.

Speaking of which, she and Gong Zeli weren’t even friends, but now they were eating in the same room.

Qiao Mianmian didn’t hate Gong Zeli, but because of what happened previously, she didn’t have a good impression of him.

She sat in silence for a while, unable to tolerate the awkward atmosphere. After taking a deep breath, she looked up at the man opposite her again. “Mr. Gong, can we talk now? It’ll take a while for the dishes to be served, right? Can we talk now?”

She was really curious as to why Gong Zeli was looking for her.

She felt that there was nothing to talk about between them.

Was he here for Shen Rou?

Qiao Mianmian knew that Mo Yesi and Shen Rou had cut ties, and Shen Rou had been trying to make peace with him.

Perhaps Shen Rou felt that it was useless to look for Mo Yesi, so she got Gong Zeli to plead on her behalf?

After thinking about it, she felt that this was the most likely possibility.

She couldn’t think of anything else.

Gong Zeli took a sip of water and looked up slowly. He narrowed his eyes and hesitated.

Qiao Mianmian waited for a while before hearing him say, “Do you take on many commercials now?”

“What?” Qiao Mianmian was stunned.

She just found his question strange.

It was too sudden.

Gong Zeli thought that she didn’t hear him clearly, so he patiently repeated, “Did you take on a lot of commercials? Are there a lot of people looking for you?”

This time, Qiao Mianmian was sure that he was really asking about her work.

Although she didn’t know why Gong Zeli suddenly asked this, Qiao Mianmian still answered him. “No one is looking for me to shoot an advertisement now.”

She had been on the hot searches many times because of the scandals.

She was a little famous now, and more people knew her.

It was just that such fame was superficial.

She didn’t have many fans.

Hence, there couldn’t be any advertisers looking for her.

MC had approached her for an advertisement because of Mo Yesi. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have the right to endorse a top-notch makeup brand like MC.

“Then, why did you reject MC’s endorsement?” Gong Zeli narrowed his eyes and looked at the beautiful girl sitting opposite him. The image of her saving him that night suddenly appeared in his mind.

She was wearing a white dress, and her long hair was like floating seaweed. The starlight shone through and into the water as if it landed on her.

When she swam towards him, he saw an angel.

Gong Zeli felt the same as he did that night.
