Chapter 378 - 378 237

Chapter 378: Chapter 237 Chapter 378: Chapter 237 Qin Yulong nodded, “He is indeed quite polite; it’s just a shame that a portion of his fans are too difficult to deal with. I’ll head back first. I probably won’t have time to come over tomorrow; call me if you need anything.”

“Got it.”

After seeing Qin Yulong out of the room, Wenyan continued to chat with Xun Letian for a bit.

Xun Letian insisted on treating Wenyan to a meal as an apology.

Wenyan refused, “No need, the messages online weren’t spread by you, you don’t have to feel sorry for me.”

Xun Letian, “But how can that be okay? It was indeed because of me that you were troubled, I’d always feel bad if I don’t do something. Just give me a chance to make up for my fans’ mistakes.”

Wenyan, “Really, it’s not necessary. You can’t take the blame for every thing your fans do. If that were the case, with so many fans, you wouldn’t even be able to work. Alright, let’s not talk about this, it’s getting late, we should both rest early, we have to get up early tomorrow!”

After several rounds of back and forth, Wenyan finally put down her phone.

But who knew, the next day at noon, the director actually called Wenyan to have lunch together.

When Wenyan arrived, she saw Xun Letian and two other actors were also there.

Not just that, there were also several dishes on the table that she liked. She didn’t know whether it was a coincidence, since those dishes were quite common.

However, Wenyan soon got her answer.

During the meal, Xun Letian took the initiative to serve her some dishes, “I’m really sorry about the stuff online. I specifically asked your assistant about the dishes you like. Here, have some more.”

Wenyan couldn’t help but laugh and cry, “So the lunch today was your doing? Didn’t I say last night it wasn’t necessary? Look at you, going to all this trouble and effort.”

“It’s no trouble! Isn’t it normal for cast members and the director to dine together? When I was in other crews, we often got together for meals. But you kept refusing yesterday, and I was worried you were mad.”

“Not at all!” Wenyan explained, “I really wasn’t mad. And even if I were, I wouldn’t blame you. We have to ‘find the right person to settle the score,’ right?”

Wenyan felt that Xun Letian was being overly polite.

So polite that she couldn’t handle it.

At this meal, he was pouring drinks and serving dishes, making her feel embarrassed to just focus on eating her own food. She also had to converse with him now and then.

As a result, that evening the crew posted photos of the lunch gathering online.

Xun Letian and the other two actors also followed suit and posted pictures of the meal.

Only Wenyan didn’t post.

That’s because after she finished work, she didn’t open her social circle but was talking with her assistant, He Xing.

“Xingxing, don’t casually tell unfamiliar people my preferences in the future. Even though it’s not some important secret, it’s still better not to reveal my usual little habits like that.”

“Okay, next time I won’t. When Xun Letian came to ask me, I was also a bit surprised, wondering what he needed it for. But he just stood in front of me looking at me, and I explained to him without thinking.”

“Understood!” Wenyan joked with He Xing, “You were dazzled by his good looks. But it’s understandable, so I’ll forgive you this time.”

As they were talking, a call from Qin Yulong came in.

“Xun Letian has posted another photo of you two on his feed. Did you have lunch together today?”

“Ah?” Wenyan was unaware of this, “Yes, we did eat together at noon. I didn’t agree to his invitation last night, but who knew he also invited the director and a few other actors. When the director invited me, I went, not knowing it was his arrangement.”

“It’s the second time already,” Qin Yulong said, taking a deep breath on the other end of the phone, “You two don’t interact much usually, and your relationship isn’t that close, but this is already the second time he’s posted a photo of you two online. It seems a bit out of the ordinary. I can’t help but wonder if he has ulterior motives.”

He Xing, standing next to Wenyan and hearing the conversation, blurted out, “Isn’t that just clout chasing? Is that what he’s trying to do?”

Wenyan glanced at He Xing, frowning, “That shouldn’t be it, I think his popularity is still okay. Didn’t he have two hit shows before?”

“But it’s been over a year since his last hit show,” He Xing analyzed, “Nowadays, viewers have a new ‘husband’ after every show. He’s already old news, and it’s been a long time since he made it to trending searches. His followers spiked overnight after he posted a photo with you!”
