During the intermission, the guests went backstage to touch up their makeup.
Fang Qiao took out her mobile phone and saw a missed call on it, showing Lin Yao.
Lin Yao hadn't contacted him since he slammed the door and left on New Year's Day. Fang Qiao wanted to sharpen his temper and simply let it go. She called today to sue for peace.
Fang Qiao hid in the corner and dialed the phone back.
As expected, although the other party's voice was still cold, his attitude was very soft. After learning that Fang Qiao was recording a program, he offered to pick him up and have a meal together.
Fang Qiao agreed immediately.
After hanging up the phone and returning to the makeup chair, the gossiping He Yuan immediately came up and asked, "Is it Mr. Lu's call?"
Before Fang Qiao could speak, a cool "hum" came from the seat next door.
Han Jiayue raised her head: "Boss Lu attended Ye Li's new movie conference today, and he said he would pick me up when it's over."
Fang Qiao had heard about this movie. Xingzhou Entertainment spent a lot of money to create a tailor-made movie for Ye Li. It was speculated that this was one of the reasons why Ye Li was willing to sign with Xingzhou.
After the opening press conference that afternoon, Lu Yanzhou came to the garage alone to drive away, but he didn't expect that someone was already waiting for him there.
Ye Li folded his arms and leaned against the car door, smiling as he watched Lu Yanzhou approach.
Lu Yanzhou was in a trance for a moment, as if he saw the gentle and elegant boy back then, leaning against the door of the classroom and waiting for him to finish class.
Lu Yanzhou restrained his emotions, and asked sullenly, "Is there something wrong?"
Ye Li didn't mind his indifference, and said very casually: "Long time no see, I want to chat with you."
"What are you talking about?"
Ye Li tilted her head and pretended to think for a while: "Guess why I promised your brother to come to your company?"
"No guess." Lu Yanzhou said without thinking.
Ye Li smiled: "Why are you still as childish as before?"
Lu Yanzhou unconsciously clenched the hand hanging by his side. He still remembered Ye Li's last words before the breakup: "Can you stop being so childish?"
Lu Yanzhou stopped looking at him, opened the car door and got on the driver's seat.
Ye Li followed closely to the co-pilot: "I asked the driver to go back first, Mr. Lu, would you mind giving me a ride?"
"Excuse me, I'm going to pick someone up now."
"Oh? The one in the office last time?"
In fact, Lu Yanzhou was going to pick up Han Jiayue, but he didn't bother to explain to Ye Li, so he casually said "Yes".
"You look young." Ye Li recalled Fang Qiao's appearance.
Lu Yanzhou laughed at himself: "It's just right for someone as childish as me."
Ye Li slowly put away her smile, and stopped talking. There was only silence in the closed compartment for a while.
After a long time, Lu Yanzhou heard the people around him say in a low voice: "I'm sorry."
The car door opened and closed, Lu Yanzhou closed his eyes, and put his forehead on the steering wheel as if he was discouraged.
When Lu Yanzhou rushed to the backstage lounge, he just ran into Lin Yao who came to pick Fang Qiao up.
Fang Qiao was about to follow Lin Yao with his bag on his back, but Lu Yanzhou didn't know where his tendon was cramping, so he grabbed his wrist.
Fang Qiao was very puzzled: "Is there something wrong with Mr. Lu?"
Lu Yanzhou said with a straight face, "I'll take you home."
Fang Qiao: ...
Lin Yao: ...
Before Fang Qiao could speak, Han Jiayue quit first, and acted like a spoiled child to Lu Yanzhou with an aggrieved face: "Boss Lu, what should I do, I didn't ask the driver to pick me up."
Lu Yanzhou pointed to Lin Yao: "Let him deliver."
Then he pulled Fang Qiao and left the lounge without looking back.
Because Fang Qiao was forced to release Lin Yao's pigeons again, he complained in his heart: "Why did Mr. Lu suddenly send me away?"
Lu Yanzhou took it for granted: "I raised you with money, so why go with others?"
Fang Qiao laughed out loud, "I didn't expect Boss Lu to be so childish."
Lu Yanzhou was extremely sensitive to the word "childish" today, and even had the urge to throw Fang Qiao out of the car when he heard this.
However, Fang Qiao didn't notice the gloom in Lu Yanzhou's eyes, and continued on his own, "It's quite cute."
Lu Yanzhou: ...
In the lounge, Lin Yao was still standing there, looking at the direction the two left with a complicated expression.
Until Han Jiayue's dissatisfied call came from behind him: "Why are you standing there, send me off!"
