During these three days, she hadn’t seen Lu Jingchen even once. Every ti she saw Assistant Xue, she wanted to ask where that man had gone, but the words seed to get stuck in her throat.
Three days later, Gu Xiyan officially started filming, and as Gu Xiyan’s agent, Song Qiao naturally had to go to the set with her.
In the morning, Gu Xiyan and the assistant set off first. After Assistant Xue brought Lu Wangshu over, he left imdiately. anwhile, Mu Shinian had been busy with work, so Song Qiao didn’t want to leave Lu Wangshu at ho alone and decided to bring the little one along.
This man could even say things like that. He was shaless, but she still wanted to keep her dignity.
Moreover, the voice of Lu Jingchen wasn’t deliberately lowered just now; to her, it sounded quite loud, so surely Zuo Yuqing nearby heard it too.
Suddenly, a sense of sha filled her heart. She directly shook off Lu Jingchen’s hand and threw out a sentence, "Lu Jingchen, you’re a beast..."
After saying that, she turned and walked away.
She really didn’t have the face to stay here any longer.
Watching Song Qiao’s departing back, Lu Jingchen originally wanted to step forward and catch up, but in the end, he forcefully stopped himself.
Zuo Yuqing had indeed heard what Lu Jingchen said just now and couldn’t help but wear an awkward expression.
She directly took Lu Wangshu, who was still standing there, and walked up to Lu Jingchen. Looking at the man with a slightly grim and still very unsatisfied expression, she finally smiled and said, "With your personality, aren’t you afraid that Song Qiao will really never co back to you, and instead go further and further away?"
Lu Jingchen’s expression carried a bit of suppression. He didn’t answer imdiately, and only after a while he added, "She never thought about coming back to ."
...
For another period of ti, Song Qiao didn’t see Lu Jingchen again.
However, a few days later, Song Qiao received a call from Zuo Yuqing, saying she was inviting her out to have a chat.
In the end, after thinking it over, Song Qiao agreed straight away.
Regarding Zuo Yuqing, though she didn’t particularly like her since this woman was once her rival in love and had a history with Chu Munan, Song Qiao didn’t particularly dislike Zuo Yuqing either. The best she could manage in her attitude towards Zuo Yuqing was probably just neutrality.
The eting place was set at a relatively upscale cafe in the city center. When the agreed ti ca, Song Qiao appeared in the cafe.
Upon entering the cafe, a waiter imdiately ca up, politely and with so respect, asking, "Hello, do you have a reservation?"
Song Qiao shook her head and then explained, "I’ve arranged to et soone, could you tell where Miss Zuo is?"
The waiter was montarily stunned, then imdiately said, "Miss Zuo is in a private room, please follow ."
As he spoke, he made a gesture of invitation, to which Song Qiao nodded and followed the waiter.
Zuo Yuqing had requested a private room instead of sitting in the hall, which Song Qiao could understand.
After all, Zuo Yuqing is a public figure with considerable popularity in the country. Her re presence could cause quite a stir, so it was safer to book a private room.
Inside the private room, Zuo Yuqing was sitting alone. Upon opening the door, one could hear the dialogue from a drama playing, and as Song Qiao looked inside, she saw Zuo Yuqing with her head down watching a drama on her phone.
Hearing sounds from the doorway, Zuo Yuqing raised her head and saw Song Qiao following the waiter. She imdiately stood up with a smile on her face, "Song Qiao, you’re here."
Zuo Yuqing not only had very distinctive features, but she also exuded a unique aura, with a presence that could captivate with just a slight smile.
For a mont, Song Qiao was dazzled by Zuo Yuqing’s smile, and when she ca back to her senses, she imdiately responded with a nod.
Zuo Yuqing’s deanor was like that towards an old friend not seen in a long ti, very warm and welcoming as she invited Song Qiao to sit and instructed the waiter to bring in what she had ordered.
The waiter’s professionalism was excellent. Even though she was a fan of Zuo Yuqing, she remained a rational fan.
Upon hearing the na ’Song Qiao,’ being a native of An City, she imdiately recognized Song Qiao’s identity.
’The wife of Lu Jingchen, the president of CK Group.’
However, even when she recognized it, she did not gossip about it.
Song Qiao entered the private room and sat directly across from Zuo Yuqing. After the waiter brought in all the snacks and flower tea that Zuo Yuqing ordered, he left and gently closed the door behind him.
The room suddenly only had Song Qiao and Zuo Yuqing left.
Zuo Yuqing’s gaze landed on Song Qiao, with a faint smile on her face, looking very perfect, she said, "Song Qiao, aren’t you curious why I called you out?"
Her voice was very gentle, and listening to it made people feel very comfortable, like a warm breeze brushing past the heart.
As for Zuo Yuqing’s voice, Song Qiao also found it very pleasant to the ear.
Back then, Zuo Yuqing even sang the the song for the drama she starred in, and it was quite lovely.
Song Qiao did not avoid her gaze but t Zuo Yuqing’s eyes directly. Perhaps infected by the smile on Zuo Yuqing’s face, she couldn’t help but curl her lips slightly and said, "You called out, it’s either for sothing, or it’s for nothing. If it’s nothing, we can drink tea and eat snacks. If it’s sothing, you will naturally tell . Whether I ask or not, I will eventually know."
Zuo Yuqing was a bit taken aback by Song Qiao’s words, not expecting her to respond this way.
Then she laughed, "I must say, Song Qiao, sotis you’re not very likable."
Song Qiao, upon hearing this, showed no extra reaction and remained silent, picking up the flower tea in front of her and taking a sip.
Now, in the weather of August, it’s so hot that standing outside for a few minutes feels like making one break out in a sweat.
Whether she was likable or not, she didn’t know, but she was very clear that no one is perfect and liked by everyone; everyone has flaws and there will be people who like them, but there will also be those who don’t.
Just like how sotis she didn’t quite like Zuo Yuqing.
Moreover, the way won look at won is different from the way n look at won.
Sotis, when soone doesn’t like you, it may not be a bad thing. This way, you can know where you fall short and improve.
Song Qiao didn’t know how to respond to Zuo Yuqing’s words.
After a silence of a dozen seconds between them, Zuo Yuqing sighed almost imperceptibly and said, "Song Qiao, I called you out because of Lu Jingchen..."
Between her and Song Qiao, it seems there’s only the connection of Lu Jingchen, with no other ties, so calling Song Qiao out is just to discuss Lu Jingchen.
This wasn’t surprising.
Song Qiao paused with the flower tea cup in her hand, then looked up at Zuo Yuqing in front of her and instead of answering, she asked, "So you called out to tell to leave Lu Jingchen?"
Upon hearing Zuo Yuqing say it was about Lu Jingchen, Song Qiao had already thought of a reason without much thought.
Zuo Yuqing wanted to continue being with Lu Jingchen, then wanted her to leave.
After all, she was definitely the biggest obstacle between her and Lu Jingchen, considering she could see that Lu Jingchen still had feelings for her.
What’s more, that day at the shooting base, what Lu Jingchen said had already made her feel ashad, not to ntion Zuo Yuqing also overheard it there.
When Zuo Yuqing heard Song Qiao’s words, her smile froze, and after a while, she said, "Song Qiao, you don’t need to hold animosity towards . I haven’t said anything yet, but you think I want you to leave Lu Jingchen... Not everyone’s thoughts are the sa as yours. As for Lu Jingchen, I actually let go five years ago; he was just a man I once loved. Now, I don’t have the sa passion and affection for him as before, so you can let go of your animosity towards ..."
She paused, not waiting for Song Qiao to respond, and continued, "I know you still have feelings for Lu Jingchen, there’s no need to rush to deny it. That day when you saw with him, I saw the look in your eyes towards him. Lu Jingchen may not see it, but as a woman, I can..."
Listening to Zuo Yuqing’s words, Song Qiao felt her secret was suddenly exposed and her expression changed; she spoke directly, "Sorry, I don’t understand what you’re talking about."
Zuo Yuqing smiled, seemingly nonchalant, but didn’t continue on this topic, instead, she shifted the focus and said, "Song Qiao, do you know how Lu Jingchen has been these past five years?"
Song Qiao pressed her lips in silence, her eyes fixed on Zuo Yuqing opposite her.
"For the past five years, Lu Jingchen never stopped looking for you, especially the first year after you left. Whenever he heard news of you being sowhere, he would fly there imdiately, regardless if it was true or not. As the president of CK Group, Lu Jingchen has many partners but also many enemies. Five years ago, just after you left, his enemies released false news that you were in the ’Middle East’, tricking him into going there. He didn’t hesitate or think twice, left an international eting that day to fly over, and nearly died in the Middle East in the process of looking for you..."
