Chapter 1977: Try His Best To Attack Her Heart
“I understand.”
Xiao Yuqian left while holding the project proposal and Guan Hao walked with her.
She returned to her office and Guan Hao realized that not only was Ma Haodong there, there was also another girl. The girl looked familiar, like she was a child actress.
Guan Hao remembered that Xiao Yuqian had mentioned before that she had a younger female cousin who debuted as a child star. Perhaps this was the person she was talking about?
The two of them looked quite similar!
Ma Haodong saw that Xiao Yuqian was back and that she had also brought Guan Hao here. He stood up involuntarily.
After Xiao Yuqian gave him a short introduction, Xiao Yuxin said, “Haodong and I were just talking about which restaurant we should go to. Why don’t we all go get lunch together!”
Ma Haodong didn’t say anything and just looked at Xiao Yuqian. Xiao Yuqian, on the other hand, turned around and exchanged glances with Guan Hao.
Guan Hao had initially wanted to invite Xiao Yuqian out alone but there were two additional people now. Moreover, Xiao Yuqian’s cousin had already said to eat together so he had no choice but to go along with it. “Okay, let’s go together then!”
They left Huayin together. Guan Hao had his own car so Ma Haodong said, “Xiao Yuxin, you go in Mister Guan’s car. I will go with my agent. See you later at the restaurant.”
Since Ma Haodong already said as such, Xiao Yuxin couldn’t go with them no matter how much she wanted to. She also didn’t dare to request so much, so she just went into Guan Hao’s car obediently.
Ma Haodong sat beside Xiao Yuqian and put on his seatbelt. He said, “Okay, you can drive now.”
Xiao Yuqian drove the car out and Guan Hao’s car followed suit.
Now that there were only two of them in the car, Ma Haodong looked at her and said, “Okay, lose that poker face! If you have anything to say, just say it!”
Xiao Yuqian only said, “Why did you follow me here? You don’t have any activities scheduled today.”
“I know. I only came so I could be with you. That’s why I’d rather sacrifice my weekend. Aren’t you moved?”
Ma Haodong leaned his head against her shoulder and Xiao Yuqian immediately moved her shoulder to shove him away. She indicated that he should talk properly and not try anything funny.
“Okay. You need to remember our relations.h.i.+p is that of a manager and an artist. When you speak or act in the future, you have to behave properly, especially when in front of others.”
“Understood. What you mean is that we can have a secret relations.h.i.+p. I got it!”
Xiao Yuqian almost stepped on the wrong pedal. “Who wants to get into a secret relations.h.i.+p with you?”
“Fine, if you don’t want to admit it. I don’t believe you don’t feel anything towards me in your heart.”
“I don’t feel anything. You are imagining things.” Xiao Yuqian lied brazenly. Right now, he had thrown her heart into chaos.
She really was afraid that once they spent more time alone together, this fella would really try his best to attack her heart.
Moreover, Xiao Yuqian wasn’t considering getting into a relations.h.i.+p for the time being. She only wanted to protect her heart so that no one would have the chance to hurt her.
They arrived at the restaurant and it was a very cla.s.sy j.a.panese place.
After they booked a room, the four of them sat down and started to order.
When Ma Haodong was ordering, he really gave off an obvious aura of being rich. He ordered all of the signature dishes straight away.
“We won’t be able to finish them all. Order less,” Xiao Yuqian said.
“It’s fine. In any case, you are treating us!” Ma Haodong said cheerfully.
Xiao Yuqian rolled her eyes at him. If he knew she was paying, could he not be so extravagant and wasteful and put her into such a bind?
This lunch would eat up half of her monthly salary. Just thinking about it felt painful.
During this meal, it was Xiao Yuxin and Ma Haodong who spoke the most. The two of them kept the atmosphere lively. Both Xiao Yuqian and Guan Hao felt really awkward while they ate.
