At that, the director told her, “Ah! Ji Yan, I forgot to tell you that Xingze left straight after filming, so he wouldn’t be here.”
“I know! I wasn’t expecting him to come, anyway, ” she laughingly said. “It’s a family member of mine!”
“Family member?”
“What family member?”
The crowd exchanged puzzled looks with one another before studying the coyish expression on her face. Realization sank in right away, and they understood what she meant by ‘family member’.
“Oooh… You’ve got a boyfriend?!”
“That’s shocking news!”
The assistant director slapped his thigh in feigned regret. “I didn’t know that our beautiful Ji Yan is already taken! Sigh… Looks like my hopes are dashed!”
At that moment, Hua Jin went over to Yun Shishi’s side and whispered to her, “It can’t be her sugar daddy, right?”
Her eyelids twitched as she elbowed him. “Don’t go wagging your tongue.”
“Come on; it’s just a joke!” the aggrieved actor cried. “Shishi, you’re such a serious and boring person!”
“Couldn’t she be allowed to have a boyfriend?”
“Have you gone bonkers? Why are you speaking up for her?”
She merely quietly thought to herself, I’m just curious about her identity, not her gossip.
He then asked softly, “Say, why do you think a man would date a woman who obviously has a sugar daddy?”
She answered matter-of-factly, “He’s obviously playing with her!”
“Bingo!” He snapped his fingers. “I’m looking forward to seeing who her boyfriend is.”
“You’ll know it soon enough.”
That got him excitedly saying, “Yep, and I look forward to it!”
She rubbed her forehead, feeling a headache coming on.
Since when did this chap become such a gossiper?
At 7:15 PM, Ji Yan took a look at the time before going to a corner urgently to make a phone call. She came back half a minute later and, shyly but excitedly, announced, “He’s reached the entrance of the bar!”
“Ooooooh!”
Amid the cheering crowd, a female starlet said teasingly, “Look at how excited Ji Yan is! She’s gone all red! Hey, please have mercy on us tonight, okay? Most of us are single dogs here, so please cut back on the PDAs. I’ve been seeing too much of those lovey-dovey displays lately, so I can’t take it anymore!”
The crowd chuckled at that.
Ji Yan shyly replied, “What are you saying? Don’t worry; I’ll try my best not to show off tonight!”
“Yep! That’s the way!” The director nodded. “Even if you want to behave intimately with each other, please wait until you’ve checked in to a hotel.”
Silence fell over them.
“Need you be so explicit, director?!”
“Exactly! Ji Yan will feel shy.”
The director responded dismissively, “We’re all adults here. There’s nothing wrong with throwing a few adult jokes here and there.”
The crowd burst into another round of laughter when someone suddenly raised their voice, asking, “There’s a handsome man coming up the stairs! Is that your boyfriend, Ji Yan?”
The said actress turned her head back and, upon noticing the newcomer, immediately ran up to him with a blushing face.
Curious, Yun Shishi glanced in the direction of the door and saw a dashing man, in a semi-formal attire, walking toward them. When her gaze landed on his face, however, her mind drew a blank, for she was shocked by who she saw!
