"Brother Chi saw that I was unhappy and asked what happened, so I told him about being replaced. I just wanted to vent to Brother Chi, but the next day my agent told that I got the role back again, because Brother Chi is familiar with the production team and spoke on my behalf."
Zhou Benyuan had never made this story public before.
In the studio, everyone was sowhat surprised.
Because Zhou Benyuan had not inford the production team in advance that he would tell this story.
Normally, these details would have been communicated beforehand.
Lew Yuan laughed and smoothed things over: "Actually, many friends don’t know that although Song Chi seems cold, he’s always been very warm-hearted."
Zhou Benyuan nodded in agreent, then suddenly turned to look at Zhou Yun.
His sudden gaze made Zhou Yun’s heart skip a beat.
Could it be? Zhou Yun felt a bad premonition rising inside.
The bad premonition soon beca reality.
"You’re also acquainted with Brother Chi, right?"
This was a rhetorical question as everyone knew that she knew Song Chi.
If she hadn’t had the previous conflict with Song Chi, she wouldn’t mind sharing a nice little story about him on the show to add so highlights.
But now her relationship with Song Chi was a bit awkward. She didn’t want to pretend that nothing happened and fake being cheerful friends with Song Chi at this ti.
In a brief mont, Zhou Yun had a clever idea, put on a resigned Smiling Face, and said: "I’d rather not trouble him further, let’s not start any more rumors. We really only t because of the recent scandal, nothing more than that."
Lew Yuan noticed the distress in Zhou Yun’s deanor.
The director in front was holding up a sign, signaling Lew Yuan to lead Zhou Yun to share more about her connection with Song Chi.
This content would significantly increase the viewership of the show.
But Lew Yuan pretended not to see the director’s cue and turned to Li Quan, "Brother Quan, I often hear you’re a great patron of talent and give opportunities to the youth. Could you share with us why you do this?"
...
After the recording of the show ended, various teams approached.
Zhou Yun took off her microphone, handed it back to her PD with a word of thanks, and just as she was ready to greet the others and leave, Lew Yuan called out to her, or more precisely, to everyone.
"If you all have ti later, let’s get sothing to eat together," Lew Yuan invited.
It was already late, 10 p.m.
Zhou Yun didn’t want to go, but being the least experienced among those present, it would be inconvenient to outright refuse and leave the impression of being antisocial or aloof.
Moreover, she had a good impression of Lew Yuan.
During the recording just now, Lew Yuan had helped her several tis, and she didn’t want to slight him.
Li Quan, holding an insulated mug handed by his assistant, smiled and shook his head, saying: "I won’t join, I’m getting sleepy with age."
Lew Yuan wasn’t surprised, laughing, "Brother Quan, you’ve worked hard. You have more recording tomorrow, so head back early to rest. Let’s make plans another ti."
Li Quan was the first to leave.
Zhou Benyuan checked with his assistant, confird his schedule was okay, then turned to Lew Yuan with a Smiling Face, raising his hand, saying: "Brother Lew, I’m in!"
Zhou Yun thought for a mont, then also smiled, saying: "Sure, I’m fine with it."
So the group made their way to a restaurant booked by Lew Yuan.
The restaurant owner appeared to be an old acquaintance of Lew Yuan, and seeing so many Celebrities, they weren’t overexcited but led them warmly to a private room.
Lew Yuan said: "This restaurant belongs to an old classmate of mine, it’s quite private, and I have this habit of inviting friends who fild with to eat sothing afterwards."
Besides the three of them, there were two other people Zhou Yun didn’t know very well; they were from different fields. Thanks to the internet, all sorts of industries had seen the rise of Celebrities with many fans, and the entertainnt circle was no longer limited to film, TV, and music.
Among everyone, Lew Yuan was the eldest, but he never acted aloof during the recording of the show and was even less so in private.
He actively set up the tableware for everyone, poured water, and was careful to ask about everyone’s dietary preferences when ordering.
He was soone who took great care of others.
It was a very ordinary dinner gathering, and Zhou Yun only wanted to keep to herself like a wooden beauty, not speaking much, just listening to others.
Midway through the al, Lew Yuan suddenly took out his phone, his face lit up with excitent: "Great, Song Chi said he’s nearby, just finished work, and will join us for a bite shortly."
Upon hearing that na, Zhou Yun’s mind buzzed.
