Chapter 985: Extra Chapter 2: The Actor
If she hadn’t been shadowing them, would it have been so coincidental that she would make an appearance just as they were eating?
Besides, both Jiang Yeqing and Lao Wu noticed that there was no element of surprise in her expression.
Obviously, she knew that Jiang Yeqing was here, so she had come here to “coincidentally run into them”.
She was indeed scheming!
In addition, she was dressed up so fancifully and had such heavy makeup on. Lao Wu didn’t have a good impression of her, but after hearing her story, he disliked her even more.
Wenxin looked a little guilty on hearing Lao Wu’s question. She looked away and avoided their eyes, saying hesitantly, “Actually, it’s not shadowing. I just… heard it from someone.”
“Heard it from someone? Whom from?” Lao Wu and Old Jiang were on good terms. Now that he had asked these questions, it was almost like an interrogation. However, Jiang Yeqing did not stop him, so it was obvious that they shared a good relations.h.i.+p.
After all, Jiang Yeqing was also very curious.
Wenxin stammered and said, “I heard it from my colleagues. They said that you guys… were having dinner here and so I thought I’d try my luck.”
“To take advantage?” Lao Wu’s tone was unpleasant. He sounded like he was smiling, but there was no hiding the contempt in his voice.
The girl felt a little embarra.s.sed and bit her lip without saying anything.
Jiang Yeqing also felt that this “sister” whom he had not seen for a long time had become something of a stranger, but Lao Wu’s tone was indeed a little too much. Appropriately, Jiang Yeqing stopped him with a change of topic. He asked Wenxin, “What are you doing nowadays?”
Wenxin flushed slightly and she looked a little speechless.
Soon, the dishes were served. Jiang Yeqing and Lao Wu had woken up late today and had not eaten up till now. Feeling famished, they started eating.
However, halfway through the meal, Wenxin picked up a call. When she did so, she immediately smiled and said, “h.e.l.lo, CEO Liu, hey, hey, yes, yes, sure, that’s fine, then…”
Her smile was gentle and her tone was soft. She sounded… rather like an indecent girl.
Jiang Yeqing and Lao Wu couldn’t help but take a few more glances at her.
Halfway through the call, she realized that the two men were looking at her. Suddenly, she found herself unable to continue speaking and looked troubled. “Eh, Brother Yun, I’m sorry. I suddenly remembered that I have something on today. I have to go back to my mother’s place. I’m afraid I won’t be able to accompany you today. How about another day?”
The person on the other end of the line seemed to be angry. Wenxin smiled apologetically, her att.i.tude humble and even a little flattering. However, it wasn’t hard to tell that she didn’t like to treat others this way, and the disgust in her eyes was obvious.
After hanging up, Jiang Yeqing asked again, “Are you busy? Business matters? If you’re busy today, we can reschedule for tomorrow or any other time. We have time these few days.”
He was referring to “us”. Obviously, he was prepared to bring Lao Wu along.
Just as Wenxin was about to say something, Lao Wu interrupted her and said, “Miss Wen, the Brother Yun you were talking to just then, could it be Liu Yun?”
The girl was slightly stunned. She squeezed her phone a couple of times and asked, “How did you know?”
