As Qiao Mingye's profile picture flashed across the screen of his phone, Xia Wan'er's face slowly darkened.
Looking at Qiao Mingye, she placed the phone in front of him and said coldly, "I didn't know that Mr. Qiao had a habit of pretending to be someone else."
Qiao Mingye remained calm, put away his phone, and said calmly, "Ayu just bought a new phone these days, and he only wants to play games, but he can't bear to throw away this old one, so he asked me to keep it for a few days."
"Oh, then President Qiao is really considerate of his subordinates."
Xia Wan'er sneered and sat back in her seat.
She knew that this man had great acting skills and could lie without blinking, so naturally she didn't believe him.
"Wanwan," Qiao Mingye said slowly, with a hint of grievance in his tone.
Xia Wan'er was so angry that she was about to look up and confront him, but she saw him looking at her with sincere eyes.
He was already extremely charming, and now his eyes were so deep that Xia Wan'er was deeply attracted by him at first sight.
"Actually, if you want to know something about me, I'm right in front of you. You can find out directly without going through other people." Qiao Mingye's voice is low, and as addictive as his looks.
Just as their lips and teeth touched, there was a gentle knock on the door.
Xia Wan'er was so frightened that she quickly dodged Qiao Mingye and turned her back to him.
Damn it, she didn't even move away when his face got closer.
Qiao Mingye loosened his collar, leaned lazily back in his chair, picked up the slightly cold tea on the dining table and drank it all in one gulp.
Seeing the tense atmosphere in the room, the waiter did not dare to delay and quickly served the dishes before closing the door and leaving.
Qiao Mingye smiled: "Wanwan—"
"Eat your food!" Xia Wan'er covered her lips and said angrily. The table full of food could not stop him from talking.
"Okay." Qiao Mingye's voice was a little disappointed.
Even though her back was facing away from him, she always had a feeling that Qiao Mingye was smirking at her.
Xia Wan'er felt more and more uncomfortable, but she didn't know what expression she should have when she turned around and faced him.
Especially on her lips, there seemed to still be his warmth.
Just when her thoughts were extremely confused, her cell phone rang.
Seeing that it was Si Min on the screen, Xia Wan'er suddenly had an idea. She stood up and said calmly, "My agent called me. I'll go out and answer it."
"Okay, don't worry here. Shangguan Rong's people can't enter this store and can only guard outside." Qiao Mingye said "kindly".
Xia Wan'er, who had originally intended to escape, couldn't help but tighten her grip on the phone.
This Qiao Mingye really took advantage of her!
"Even his grandfather was almost mad at you. How could I worry with you here?" Xia Wan'er said gritting her teeth, then turned and left.
Qiao Mingye raised his lips and smiled, then picked up the chopsticks and ate slowly.
After coming out, looking down through the window in the corridor, Xia Wan'er realized that Qiao Mingye was not lying to her. There were indeed a few people with unfriendly faces lurking outside.
Thinking that she would still have to rely on Qiao Mingye in the future, she couldn't help but feel discouraged.
She was in no mood when she answered the phone, and her tone was rather flat: "Hello, Sister Simin."
"My dear, you are finally back on! How did you suddenly end up in the hospital? Are you okay now? I wanted to see you, but Ran Qin wouldn't let me. I was so worried."
Even through the phone, Xia Wan'er could feel Si Min jumping with excitement over there.
As for Si Min, it was Xia Wan'er who asked Ran Qin to keep the secret, so she was not surprised.
She said calmly, "I just feel a little uncomfortable. It may be the sequelae of falling into the water. I feel much better now. Is there something you want to talk to me about?"
"It's not a big deal. I asked your Director Wu. You are going back to the crew tomorrow, right? There just so happens that there is a variety show with ancient style being filmed near your crew recently. It's called 'Let's Travel Through Time'. It's quite famous. I noticed that you are planning to transform recently. This is very suitable for you. I have sent the information to your email. You can check it out first. If you are interested, I will definitely get it for you."
