Chapter 573 - He’s Here!! (13)
Hence, Qiao Lian said with ease, “Because I missed you.”
She noticed that her straightforward answer had made Shen Liangchua’s ears turn bright scarlet in response.
Qiao Lian moved a step towards him.
There was still an angry red handprint across her cheek. It stood out all the more against the fair skin of her face.
Staring at the impact of the slap, his eyes darkened and he suddenly felt like the kick he had given Qiao Yiyi had been way too light.
As he contemplated this, Qiao Lian picked up her cell phone and thrust it at him. “Here, take a picture of me! This is a historical filming set, I won’t be able to find another place like this. Not even in a studio!”
Then she took a step back, tilted her face and struck a pose that Xiao Qiao used to display.
With two hands behind her, a slight twist of her waist and an extremely radiant smile.
The way she looked now was exactly like Xiao Qiao in the game.
To Shen Liangchuan, this was a pose that was at once affectionate and funny.
He raised the cell phone and aimed it at Qiao Lian. “Click, click.” He took two pictures. Qiao Lian ran back back to him and took the cell phone from him. After glancing at the pictures, she lamented, “You’ve taken the pictures from such an unflattering angle, I can do a much better job!”
She took a glance at Shen Liangchuan and said, “Stand still. Let me take a picture of you!”
“Put your hands behind your back!”
“Stop being so arrogant. Put some expression, come on...”
The girly chattering filled the previously cold and quiet lounge—now it was bustling with life.
Shen Liangchuan suddenly smiled.
“Click!”
She captured the moment his lips turned upwards.
Right at this moment, a knock on the door was heard.
The lounge door opened. It was Song Cheng, who looked at Shen Liangchuan with a helpless smile on his face. “Brother Shen, I know it’s bad timing for me to interrupt, but I need to tell you something important.”
Shen Liangchuan stopped smiling and even Qiao Lian quickly put on a serious expression.
Song Cheng continued, “The director has just informed that the investors will be here shortly. Last time we missed the opportunity of dining with them, so the opportunity has come up again. We’ll have dinner together tonight, and we can introduce our company.”
Having said this, he looked at Qiao Lian with his most regretful expression. “Brother Shen, our company has been established recently and we need to attract funds and sponsors. Will you be able to—”
Every time he was with Ms. Qiao, the usually rational man would turn quite irrational.
Seeing how they couldn’t bear to be apart from each other, Song Cheng was worried that Shen Liangchuan would reject the dinner party.
His worries were proved unfounded when Shen Liangchuan said, “I understand.”
At once, Song Cheng was elated and turned to exit the room, leaving them alone.
–
An investor was coming to visit the filming set.
All at once, the place was bustling with excitement.
It seemed to be busy everywhere.
Qiao Yiyi had been treated coldly moments ago, but now the director was all smiles and discussing the script with her. He casually apologized to her over the matter. “Best Actor Shen didn’t mean any harm with what he said, it was just a misunderstanding.”
Putting on a magnanimous attitude, she replied, “Best Actor Shen is a well-known person in the industry. He was just really into the role, so I don’t blame him at all. I’d be happy as long as in the future he’s willing to guide me and collaborate with me.”
The director nodded.
However, the moment the director left the room, Qiao Yiyi’s expression changed at once.
Second Brother had initially said that he was busy. But the moment she mentioned that Qiao Lian was here, he immediately found the time to rush over.
