Li Ma thought that the two of them were at most a couple. She did not expect them to be husband and wife, she instantly felt deep respect for Huo Ru.
Huo Ru, who only cared about eating, stopped and greeted awkwardly when she heard Yun Feng introduce her. “Sorry to trouble you in the future, Auntie Li.”
“So it’s Mrs. Yun, it’s no trouble at all. If you need anything, just let me know.” Li Ma smiled.
“There’s nothing else. If you are busy, go ahead,” Yun Feng added. “Someone will send the dog away later. Remember to settle down.”
“Alright, you guys eat first. I’ll leave first.” Li Ma was shocked by this shocking news and went down alone to digest it.
Huo Ru had vomited after getting drunk, her stomach was already empty. Now, she was focused on eating. From time to time, she would secretly observe the man opposite him.
When he ate, he was very quiet and slow. He was different from Huo Ru, who was about to starve to death. His actions were calm and unhurried. No matter how picky the etiquette teacher was, she could not find any flaws in him.
“If you have something to say, just say it.” When Huo Ru peeked at him again, she met his eyes and was caught red-handed.
Huo Ru’s mind was in a mess. She said hesitantly, “I was drunk last night. I’m sorry for causing you so much trouble, I apologize. I’m really sorry. If there’s anything unpleasant, don’t take it to heart…”
“You slept with me in your arms all night, and you’re just going to tell me not to take it to heart? You can’t be such a scumbag, right?” He slowly wiped his mouth, a faint smile in his eyes.
“I didn’t sleep with you! Don’t spread fake news!”
“That’s strange. Who was the person who hugged me all night last night and cried and shouted at me not to leave?”
“Ah, stop talking!” Huo Ru glared at him. “I lost my memory last night. Besides, I was just sleeping. Do you have to be like this? This is the first time I’ve been like this!”
Yun Feng’s lips curled into a smile. “You mean this is your first time and you want me to be responsible for you?”
“That’s not what I meant! Can you not interpret it blindly?”
“You specifically told me it was the first time. I didn’t dare ignore it.”
Huo Ru was really speechless now. She could not gain the upper hand with her sophistry.
“Aiya, I’m so annoyed. Who told you this!”
Fortunately, her phone rang. Huo Ru, who could not defend herself, finally calmed down when she answered the call.
She picked up her phone as if she had been granted amnesty. “Sister Lan, why are you free to call me at this time?… What? I’ll be right there. Wait!”
She hung up the phone and immediately stood up. As if waking up from a dream, she explained to Yun Feng, “I suddenly have something on at work, I’m sorry I can’t be with you anymore. Take your time and eat, I’ll get going first. Bye, see you tonight!”
With that, she hurriedly ran away, not having the time to wait for Yun Feng’s reply.
Huo Ru was not using this phone call to leave the awkward scene, she really had something important to do. She took a taxi and rushed to Star Picking Entertainment, there was no time to catch her breath. She rushed all the way to the director’s office. The door was closed, but she could hear the argument from afar.
“Director.” Huo Ru knocked on the door and walked in.
“Huo Ru is here. If you have the ability, say it again in front of her!” Lan Ying’s expression was very bad. She pointed at the man and reprimanded, “We’ve been in Star Picking for so many years. Even if we don’t claim credit, we still worked hard, right? How long ago did we agree on this role? How can we change it just like that?”
Huo Ru frowned. She and Lan Ying were already considered veterans in Star Picking, but her role was always changed. Out of compensation, Director Wang finally agreed to give her an interview recommendation for “Kindred” under Lan Ying’s persuasion. Although Huo Ru had never been famous, her acting skills were indeed good and she was successfully elected as the third female lead. Now, she was told that the role was removed just like that.
“Director Wang, that’s not what you said back then.”
Wang Lin revealed a troubled expression and subconsciously patted his round stomach. “Huo Ru, I know you guys have made an indelible contribution to the company’s development, but the decision to replace the candidate was decided by the director and the investor. What else can we do other than agree? They unanimously decided to change the candidate, so I can’t force you back…”
“Stop pretending! Do you think I don’t know what’s going on?!” Lan Ying was angry when she saw him like this.
