Chapter 794: Chapter 794: Li Shengxiao is still in a meeting

Rong Yan was left speechless by her rebuke, and seeing her little face swell up to the color of liver, as if it would explode with redness if she said anything more, Rong Yan decided to drop it.

“Well, when you have the time, let’s have a meal together. I’ll invite Estelle too.”

Worried that Qi Yue might overthink it, she quickly added, “It’s just a meal between friends. nothing more.”

Qi Yue pursed her lips, the heat on her face fading slightly as she nodded obediently, “Mm.”

Her eyes, untainted by the flashy entertainment industry, looked earnestly at Rong Yan, “Then you have to let me treat you, Rong Yan. Otherwise, I won’t go.”

“Pfft,” Rong Yan couldn’t help but laugh and reached out to pinch her face, saying with a smile, “I can’t always let you pay.”

…

Qi Yue wanted to say that she could indeed pay every time; she was willing to treat.

Rong Yan had already preempted her by covering her mouth, “Okay. You can pay the first time, and then it’s my turn after that. Don’t try to fight me on this anymore. If you insist, it’ll seem like you are being formal with me, not me with you. I consider you a friend, a sister. If you’re formal with me, I’ll feel uncomfortable too.”

Her reasoning was sound, and even if Qi Yue wanted to argue, she didn’t know how to respond, so she could only hang her head in frustration, “I didn’t mean to be formal with Rong Yan.”

“Then it’s settled,” Rong Yan patted her on the shoulder.

Qi Yue felt the comforting weight on her shoulder, her tense mood suddenly relaxed, and her shoulders dropped, her voice soft, “Okay.”

Rong Yan walked out of KT Entertainment’s front door with her, casually throwing away the trash she had brought. She hailed a taxi at the curb and twisted around to ask the person standing not far away with a guitar on their back, “Where are you off to next? Do you need a lift?”

Qi Yue waved her hand, “No need. I have to wait for my agent to come out, then we’ll go to the apartment I’m renting together. Don’t worry about me, Rong Yan, you go ahead.”

Rong Yan knew Qi Yue’s agent, a capable woman with good character and a good relationship with Estelle. Relieved, she said goodbye to Qi Yue and closed the taxi door.

“Driver, to Li Group.”

Wearing her ever-present duckbill cap and dressed in a shirt + dungarees, Rong Yan looked like a fresh college grad starting at KT, clean and neat.

The driver never imagined the person sitting in his back seat was a recently popular female star. He stepped on the gas and advised, “Miss, remember to buckle up.”

“Okay.”

Rong Yan buckled herself in with the seatbelt and then took out her phone to send a message to the man still at work.

Little Demon Rong: [Still busy?]

‘Ding’—a reply came through.

—[In a meeting.]

“…” A meeting, huh.

Rong Yan rested her chin on her hand, pondering whether she should still go over. Just then, her phone ‘dinged’ again—it was another message from Li Shengxiao.

[Have you finished your work?]

Rong Yan had almost sent out the words ‘finished work’ but, after a moment’s thought, deleted them and instead wrote, [Not yet. Almost done, so I was checking on you.]

She buried her head and curled the corners of her mouth, [Alright, you focus on your meeting. I won’t disturb you anymore. I’m going to be busy too, bye.]

Li Shengxiao didn’t reply for a long time after that.

Rong Yan didn’t mind his lack of response and looked up at the driver, “Sorry to bother you, but could we change our destination first? Could you take me to Zijing Road?”
