Chapter 1901: Chapter 1901: Lunch Scandal

Yesterday’s “encounter” before and after shooting the public service advertisement left Cao Jianhui, Li Fuming, and Wu Longjiang quite excited.

Last night, the three chatted late into the night and couldn’t fall asleep for a long time after lying down.

In class today, they frequently chatted with Luo Ziling about the filming process and matters related to those big stars.

Previously, they didn’t know about Luo Ziling’s and Lingyun Company’s relationships with those stars, but after yesterday, they had a bit of understanding. Therefore, they tried hard to please Luo Ziling, hoping to join as extras more often in future filming.

As extras, they could meet those beautiful big stars, get to interact with them, maybe even have scenes or close interactions with them.

Thinking about this, the three nerdy guys were besides themselves with excitement.

However, Luo Ziling couldn’t be bothered with them and had a grumpy look whenever they talked about these things.

During lunch, the three were still excitedly asking Luo Ziling about acting-related matters until Dai Shulan joined them.

“Senior, you sit here,” Cao Jianhui, who was originally sitting opposite to Luo Ziling, quickly picked up his plate and gave his seat to Dai Shulan, and then said with a mischievous smile: “Anyway, we’re almost done eating. We’ll sit further away so we don’t disturb your meal. After eating, we’ll disappear so we won’t interrupt your important conversation.”

While speaking, he deliberately winked and made faces, making Dai Shulan blush.

“Sorry for the misunderstanding,” Dai Shulan quickly apologized to Luo Ziling, “I just thought you roommates sitting together wouldn’t matter if I came over.”

“What could possibly happen?” Luo Ziling knowingly asked, “Do you think we have something going on?”

Dai Shulan blushed even more, giving Luo Ziling an exasperated look, “I wanted to talk to you about something serious!”

“As if I’ve never been serious,” Luo Ziling joked again, then said seriously: “What do you want to talk about? Are you planning to bribe me?”

“I want to invite you and Yuqing to have a meal and discuss the script for the play,” Dai Shulan softly asked Luo Ziling, “Have you read the script I gave you?”

“Read some of it,” Luo Ziling answered honestly, “but I’m really not knowledgeable about scripts; I can’t tell if they’re good or bad. Maybe asking for my opinion on such a professional matter will disappoint you.”

“I just want to know if you felt the urge to read it all at once,” after asking this, Dai Shulan explained: “Whether it’s a novel or a script, if it’s captivating, it will make people want to read it in one go.”

“It’s alright,” Luo Ziling honestly answered again, “The beginning was quite engaging, but towards the end, I felt a bit fatigued, perhaps the conflicts weren’t intense enough, giving it a feeling of being optional. Maybe it’s because I’m busy and have other things to do, so that’s why I have this impression. Why don’t you ask Yuqing about it!”

Luo Ziling’s words left Dai Shulan a bit disappointed. She nodded and then softly said, “Maybe my script isn’t good enough. I’ll revise it again!”

Seeing Dai Shulan like this, Luo Ziling felt a bit guilty, “Why don’t you ask others’ opinions first, maybe many would think it’s good. Or how about this, let me have Yuqing pass your script to those professional producers and directors to see what feedback they have.”

Dai Shulan nodded, hesitated a bit, and then said: “Why don’t you help me handle it, I’m too shy to talk to Yuqing about it!”

“Alright, I’ll mention it,” Luo Ziling agreed with a smile, “I suspect even if I don’t mention it, she would have the same intention, after all, this is also her project.”

Dai Shulan smiled gently without saying much more.

After lunch, Luo Ziling and Dai Shulan parted ways, and he returned to the dorm with the other three guys.

On the way back to the dorm, Cao Jianhui mysteriously asked Luo Ziling, “Boss, are you planning to win over this chick too?”

“Boss, I think Senior Dai is also excellent and matches well with you. Didn’t you see? During your meal, there were already many rumors about you two, not just rumors of an affair, but even saying you look like a couple,” Wu Longjiang chimed in.

Li Fuming smirked mischievously, “Boss, take in all the pretty girls you encounter and fill up your harem. Even if it’s not three thousand beauties, at least have thirty. That way, you can have a new bride every day of the month without repetition. Then post it online and make everyone envious.”

Cao Jianhui promptly corrected, “But what if it’s a month with thirty-one days? Add another one to avoid trouble.”

Wu Longjiang also chimed in nonsense, “What about February? Wouldn’t there be a few without favor?”

As a result, all three of them received a kick from Luo Ziling and finally fled, wailing.

Of course, Luo Ziling’s lunch with Dai Shulan quickly caused a stir on the campus forum.

Someone posted a photo of them having lunch, which quickly drew attention.

Replies questioned if Luo Ziling had changed girlfriends.

Then, busybodies made lots of speculations, and some even said Dai Shulan was actively pursuing Luo Ziling.

This led to a heated debate on the forum, and the post’s view count quickly surpassed ten thousand.

The post naturally alarmed Luo Yuqing, who called to ask Luo Ziling what was going on.

Luo Ziling explained the situation and casually asked Luo Yuqing about the script.

Luo Yuqing agreed to show Dai Shulan’s script to some experts in the company.

Just after hanging up with Luo Yuqing, a message from Yang Qingyin arrived.

“Hey, junior, even a lunch turns into gossip news,” Yang Qingyin’s message had a hint of jealousy.

“They’re just making things up, don’t mind them,” Luo Ziling replied, “She was here to discuss the script; she’s just interested in the filming status of her work.”

“Who is she!”

Reading this message, Luo Ziling sent several angry emoticons.

Yang Qingyin’s call came shortly after.

Luo Ziling thought she would be questioning him, but unexpectedly, Yang Qingyin asked about treating Yang Yuanshan.

“My grandpa asked me to inquire when your grandpa would be free; he wants to invite him to dinner and drinks together.”

“Isn’t it to ask when my grandpa will be treating yours?” Luo Ziling pointed out directly.

“That’s probably what he means,” Yang Qingyin didn’t deny it, “Why don’t you ask your grandpa when he’s available these two days.”

“I don’t think he’ll be free today and tomorrow, as he’s off preparing some medications with a few people, including prescriptions for your grandpa. Let’s ask him once he’s done!”

Yang Qingyin agreed.

Then, Yang Qingyin also shared a rather shocking piece of news with Luo Ziling.

This morning, Yang Yunlin and Yang Yuanshan had a fierce argument.
