Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Chi Shuyan related what happened in the Ruan family, beginning with the dinner party last night and what happened today. Feng Yuanlin was so shocked that he almost stepped on the brake. He was horrified. Fortunately, he had experienced many storms and waves. After a moment, he immediately calmed down, but when he thought of the black Buddha pendant, his face darkened again.
Chi Shuyan didn’t deliberately omit names in her retelling. Feng Yuanlin was familiar with the name Ruan Shenglin. Speaking of which, Film Emperor Ruan Shenglin could be considered the only actor he liked. For one thing, this person was too famous, and for another, his acting skills and reputation were really good. Feng Yuanlin had seen a few of his movies, which were indeed pretty good. After his initial shock, Feng Yuanlin felt more astonished. Who would have thought that Film Emperor Ruan would be so unlucky.
Feng Yuanlin sighed and suddenly said, “No wonder there were so many news articles on Film Emperor Ruan today! I really thought it was a drug addiction – who would have thought that he was possessed!” After a pause, Feng Yuanlin teased in an amused tone, “But Film Emperor Ruan’s luck is pretty good. Not only did he run into you, he also believed you. If he didn’t believe you and treated you like a swindler, I’m sure he would have regretted it in the future! Who would have thought that he had such discerning eyes!”
Chi Shuyan thought to herself that the other party really hadn’t believed her at first, but with strength, nothing was a problem. Soon, her attention was focused on the news. She had rushed to the Ruan residence early this morning and really hadn’t seen much news. Hearing Brother Feng’s words, she asked curiously, “What news?”
As Feng Yuanlin talked, Chi Shuyan found out that the matter of Film Emperor Ruan suddenly ‘strangling’ someone at the dinner party last night and his ‘drug addiction’ had already made the news, which also came with blurry videos.
!!
The waters of the entertainment industry were indeed deep!
It was just that Yang Kun and Film Emperor Ruan Shenglin hadn’t said anything. Who knew if it was because they didn’t want to respond or if they didn’t know about it. As she lamented Ruan Shenglin’s bad luck, Brother Feng suddenly received a call.
Feng Yuanlin put on his earpiece and picked up the call. He hadn’t looked at his phone screen just now, but when he heard Zhenbai’s familiar voice, his lips curled up and he was in a good mood. “Hey, Zhenbai, why are you free to call me now? What’s the matter?”
After Feng Yuanlin found out that it was Zhenbai who had called, he subconsciously glanced at Shuyan in the pa.s.senger seat next to him. However, he didn’t forget that the young couple seemed to have quarreled, and it had been quite the fight, even to the point of them breaking up. As for whether they had reconciled or not, Feng Yuanlin still didn’t know.
Feng Yuanlin still thought that the main reason the couple had broken up was because of his younger cousin. Although his cousin was still in the hospital these days, he was well-behaved and couldn’t cause trouble for Feng Yuanlin. Feng Yuanlin was in a better mood and less resentful of Zhenbai, who had been the one to land his cousin in the hospital. It was rare for him to be in the mood to tease him. Without waiting for Qi Zhenbai to speak, he deliberately said, “What, are you looking for your wife? Your wife is in the pa.s.senger seat next to me right now!”
Qi Zhenbai’s eyes narrowed when he heard Feng Yuanlin’s words, and he immediately said, “Have you eaten lunch? Shall we eat together?”
Feng Yuanlin knew that his friend had ulterior motives and probably wanted to treat him to a meal because of Shuyan. Feng Yuanlin felt a little more confident, and deliberately snorted and teased, “Did I hit the jackpot? Zhenbai, you’ll actually treat me to a meal? I’m not in a position to agree. I have to ask Shuyan first!”
While Feng Yuanlin lamented over their shallow friends.h.i.+p, he told Shuyan about Zhenbai’s treat. Chi Shuyan didn’t want to have much contact with Qi Zhenbai, so she asked Brother Feng to send her back to the villa.
On the other end, Qi Zhenbai vaguely heard his wife’s reply, and his face darkened. He suddenly said in a rare pleading tone, “Brother Feng, help me bring my wife over! I appreciate your kindness.”
Feng Yuanlin sighed inwardly when he heard how this kid softened a little, but only when it came to Shuyan.
Sure enough!
Everyone had their weaknesses!
In the end, Feng Yuanlin didn’t want to see his good friend fall out with Shuyan. To be honest, it wouldn’t be easy for his friend to find such a capable, young and beautiful girlfriend in the future.
Shuyan was definitely the only one in his heart. When the couple had been together before, Feng Yuanlin had been quite envious and hateful. After his experience with Qin Qing, this worrisome girlfriend, he felt more and more that Zhenbai was simply too lucky to have found a capable, young, and beautiful girlfriend like Shuyan.
If he didn’t hold onto it properly, he would definitely regret it in the future. If Shuyan wasn’t his good friend’s wife, he might not be able to help but want to pursue her himself.
After hearing how Zhenbai’s tone softened, Feng Yuanlin immediately made a decision and reluctantly agreed. After hanging up, Feng Yuanlin played the emotional card and said, “Shuyan, have lunch with me first. It’s a waste not to eat a free lunch. How about we continue talking business over lunch?”
Without waiting for Chi Shuyan to refuse, Feng Yuanlin advised again, “If you really find Zhenbai an eyesore, just keep staring at me. I don’t mind. Thinking about it, it’s been a long time since we had a good lunch together!”
That being said, Feng Yuanlin still broke out in a cold sweat when he thought of Zhenbai’s possessiveness and jealousy.
Chi Shuyan was amused by Brother Feng’s words. Speaking of which, she still had to talk to Brother Feng about Qin Qing. After thinking about it, she wasn’t against this lunch appointment. As long as she wasn’t alone with a certain man, it was fine. She still had to give Brother Feng face, so Chi Shuyan agreed after some thought.
Without waiting for Brother Feng to finish feeling excited, Chi Shuyan subconsciously probed, “Brother Feng, have you been in contact with Miss Qin recently?”
It wasn’t like Chi Shuyan wanted to meddle in Brother Feng’s private affairs. After thinking about it, however, she added, “As far as I know, this Miss Qin has something to do with the Buddha pendant. She was the one who gave the Ruan family the Buddha pendant this time!”
