There were still ten minutes left before the sponsor's dinner. Ming Wei and Chen Zhang were already at the table, but Mu Tingzhou was sitting alone in his penthouse suite, elegantly eating a simple and nutritious dinner.

The phone rang. Mu Tingzhou wiped the corners of his mouth, picked up the phone, and answered it.

"There's going to be a banquet below, you really don't want to go?" Xiao Zhao confirmed for the third time.

Mu Tingzhou raised his eyebrows: "Is there a reason why you have to go?"

He never participated in such meaningless social activities. Xiao Zhao knew his habits. Why was he so verbose today?

Xiao Zhao almost doubted his own judgment, and finally reminded the actor with an incredible IQ and a tragic emotional intelligence: "Miss Ming has just graduated, is not experienced in the world, and is beautiful. There are so many old friends tonight, don't you worry about her being raped?"

People take advantage?”

"Why am I worried?" Mu Tingzhou asked slowly.

"beep……"

The call was disconnected.

Mu Tingzhou looked at his phone with a look of helplessness on his face. He put it back in its place and continued to eat. What were he worried about? Firstly, how could Mingwei have nothing to do with him? Secondly, Xiao Zhao had told him before that Mingwei was recommended by the proprietress of Dongying to join the group.

Yes, seeing that the producer is so polite to Ming Wei, will he allow those old fritters to bully Ming Wei?

Worse, isn't there a consort beside the princess? Her ex-boyfriend is also there.

Ballroom.

Meeting investors was a formal occasion. Chen Zhang wore a suit, and Ming Wei also chose a white dress, which was simple and elegant. The skirt was quite conservative, with the hem below the knees, but Ming Wei's face was there, and her waist was thin and her legs were long.

, walked in side by side with Chen Zhang, the lights in the banquet hall seemed to automatically focus on her, shining brightly.

The eyes of several investors lit up. Some female stars looked beautiful on the big screen, but in reality they were greatly reduced. But the new female lead in front of them had a face so tender that it looked like water could be squeezed out from a squeeze, and no part of her facial features was not exquisite. Often,

As they wandered among the flowers, they could naturally see that Mingwei only wore light makeup and was a genuine beauty.

Just when they were about to move, someone stood up, took two steps forward and stretched out his hand towards Mingwei, with a gentle voice: "Mingwei, long time no see, you are getting more and more beautiful."

Looking at Cheng Yao's handsome face, Ming Wei scolded him several times in her mind, but the current situation did not allow her to deny her acquaintance, so she had to shake hands with him politely, "So Mr. Cheng is here too."

When their hands touched, Mingwei immediately wanted to retract her hand, but Cheng Yao held her tightly. Mingwei's hands were small and soft as if they were boneless, while Cheng Yao's hands were wide and filled with scorching heat.

Aggression. Ming Wei smiled but looked at her coldly. Cheng Yao saw that it was better, looked at her with nostalgia, and silently stopped his hand.

"Do you know each other?" Chen Zhang asked with interest, not forgetting to tease Mingwei. At noon, Mingwei asked him about Cheng Yao.

Ming Wei had no time to respond to Chen Zhang and stared at Cheng Yao warningly.

Cheng Yao wanted to declare his sovereignty and tell everyone that Mingwei was his girlfriend, but he was afraid of angering Mingwei, so he smiled and said: "Mingwei used to be an Italian translator. I was lucky enough to work with her. I didn't expect Mingwei to be so versatile."

, the acting skills are also so good.”

Mingwei smiled perfunctorily.

The producer invited the three of them to sit down. Chen Zhang was the flower protector tonight, so he was naturally next to Ming Wei. Cheng Yao cleverly opened the seat next to him for Ming Wei and was extremely attentive. Ming Wei had no reason to brush "Old

In the name of "friend", Cheng Yao took great care of her and took good care of her. It was self-evident that he wanted to pursue her.

The other old fritters silently accepted their concerns. Cheng Yao was rich, good-looking and still young. How could they be competitive? They were not as beautiful as adults.

"goodbye."

The show finally ended, Ming Wei said goodbye to the last investor and turned to leave.

"Unhappy?" Chen Zhang pressed the elevator button first. When he turned around and saw Ming Wei's sullen face, he asked with concern. He was not blind and could see that Ming Wei did not want to develop further with the enthusiastic Mr. Cheng.

Mingwei has been in the group for more than a month. Although she has been trained in advance, there are many things on the shooting scene that she does not understand. It was Chen Zhang who enthusiastically helped her clear up her doubts and helped her a lot with her acting skills. Mingwei regarded him as a friend and said with a wry smile.

: "I dated him for a month, but we broke up for some reasons. I asked you about it at noon. I just wanted to know about his relationship with the crew. I'm sorry."

"What's the point? Don't worry about it." When the elevator arrived, Chen Zhang motioned for Ming Wei to go first. As soon as he entered, another person ran over from behind, ending the possibility of the two of them continuing to talk.

Chen Zhang also lived on the top floor. When the elevator reached the third floor, Ming Wei smiled at him and left first.

Back in the room, Mingwei received a WeChat message from Chen Zhang: A beauty like you must be more skilled than me in how to reject a suitor. I won't say more. For the rest, feel free to film and don't think too much.

Mingwei replied with a smile: Thank you, good night.

She didn't know whether Chen Zhang slept or not. At ten o'clock in the evening, Mingwei put on short-sleeved jeans and went to the hotel bar to meet Cheng Yao. Meeting Cheng Yao here was safer than going outside.

Cheng Yao arrived half an hour early and kept an eye on the entrance of the bar. When he saw Ming Wei, he immediately stood up and waved.

There were not many people in the bar, so Cheng Yao chose a seat near the window. There was no one in front or behind him, which was perfect for conversation.

Ming Wei sat down expressionlessly and got straight to the point: "When did you invest in the crew?"

"You're not in a hurry, what would you like to drink?" Cheng Yao asked with a smile, staring at her lustfully.

Ming Wei also laughed, sarcastically: "Mr. Cheng has dated quite a few women, right? Doesn't it take a while to break up every time? Why don't we make it clear earlier, so that we can live our own lives in the future and still have some things left in our hearts?"

good impression."

"I don't want a good impression, I just want you." Cheng Yao put away his smile and looked directly at Ming Wei, his eyes heavy and sad, "Wei Wei, I won't lie to you, I used to have many women.

I'm no different from other playboys. Even when I first met you, I just wanted to chase you for fun. But after chasing you, I got serious. I wanted to fall in love with that good girl seriously.

She gets married, has children, and lives her whole life happily. Weiwei, you really can’t see how I treat you?"

The man's eyes were fiery, and all the longing he had suppressed for two months burst out, locking his eyes firmly on Mingwei.

Ming Wei suddenly remembered the scene where Cheng Yao moved her for the first time.

That time she went to the airport to pick up a client. She had bad luck. It was raining heavily and the plane was delayed in landing. Mingwei was waiting alone at the airport, impatient and bored. Suddenly someone handed her a hot drink from behind and pressed it warmly on her face.

Ming Wei turned around and saw Cheng Yao. He was wearing a black sweater and said dotingly: "I guessed this would happen, I'll chat with you."

Is Cheng Yao serious about her?

seems like it.

Mingwei wanted to believe the man she fell in love with for the first time, and then as Cheng Yao said, the two lived happily. But Mingwei witnessed with her own eyes the details of Cheng Yao and Wang Yingying's relationship. Even if they broke up, Cheng Yao's treatment

The women she doesn't like are polite, considerate, and physically indulgent in all kinds of ways, and they really look like playboys. Then why should she believe that Cheng Yao will really change, and that she will really become the woman who wins Cheng Yao's heart?

She could no longer find a sense of security in Cheng Yao. Feeling without a sense of security was too tiring.

"As you said, I can't believe you anymore." After clearing up her mood, Ming Wei said calmly, "Well, you and I are not suitable for each other."

"I haven't tried it, how do I know it's not suitable?" Cheng Yao retorted in a low voice.

Ming Wei smiled bitterly, saying she had nothing to say.

She was no longer excited and angry. Cheng Yao was already very satisfied. After thinking about it, he sighed: "You have a reason not to believe me. This is my fault. Okay, I agree to break up, but I will pursue you again until you are willing."

Trust me." He can catch up once, he can catch up a second time, he can afford to wait.

Mingwei remained silent and asked after a while: "About investment..."

Mentioning this, Cheng Yao moved his fingers subconsciously, and finally moved his eyes away from Ming Wei's face, and said to the night scene outside the window: "Did you bump into Wang Yingying on the day you went for the audition? She thought I was going to praise you and hit her.

The phone call mocked me, indicating that Princess Hua must be hers, and I didn’t want her to be proud, so I went to Dongying to discuss investment with Mr. Lu.”

Mingwei's face, reddened by the alcohol in the bar, turned pale a little bit.

So, she was able to join the group because Cheng Yao took the back door for her, not by herself?

Seeing her like this, Cheng Yao felt a trace of regret, but after the words were spoken, he could only continue to let Ming Wei misunderstand. Leaning his upper body forward, Cheng Yao sincerely comforted his sweetheart opposite: "Wei Wei, don't think nonsense, I invested, but

Your acting skills are obvious to all..."

"Mr. Cheng, Miss Ming, what a coincidence."

Being interrupted mid-sentence, Cheng Yao frowned and looked up, only to find that Mu Tingzhou's assistant had walked over at some point and was standing there, looking at him and Ming Wei with a smile, a pair of slender eyes hidden behind

Behind the gold-rimmed glasses, although she was smiling, it somehow disgusted him.

"Qiao." Cheng Yao sat still and replied lightly.

"I'm here to say hello, you continue." After being polite, Xiao Zhao said goodbye politely and walked towards the bar to drink alone.

Ming Wei was not in the mood to sit down with Cheng Yao anymore. As soon as Xiao Zhao turned around, she also left. Cheng Yao kept her in front of the elevator.

When they arrived at the guest room, Mingwei collapsed on the bed, feeling gloomy in her heart.

She didn't want to accept Cheng Yao's backdoor. If she knew about this before filming, she would definitely quit the group. But now, she has been filming for a month, and she gradually found the joy of acting. Busy but fresh, there are new things every day.

Challenges and expectations, how can she explain to the director and crew if she quits at this time, regardless of her own preferences?

However, if she stayed, she might never be able to get rid of Cheng Yao in her life.

The hotel bed was very comfortable, but Mingwei had trouble sleeping.

In the penthouse suite, Mu Tingzhou was wearing a nightgown and leaning on the bedside, holding a script in his hand with his eyes closed. He didn't know whether he was asleep or trying to figure out the plot.

The bell rang again, and Mu Tingzhou suddenly opened his eyes. There was a majesty inside. After a few seconds, he returned to his usual casualness.

"Say." Mu Tingzhou was not happy when Guess was interrupted and said even less.

"Guess who I met at the bar?" Xiao Zhao said jokingly.

"beep……"

This time it was Mu Tingzhou's turn to hang up on him.

Xiao Zhao stopped and stood there for a minute before dialing again.

Seeing that he was his assistant, Mu Tingzhou answered the call again, turned on the speakerphone, and continued to put the phone on the bedside table without saying a word.

Xiao Zhao didn't want to hear what he said, so he thought to himself: "I saw Miss Ming and Mr. Cheng sitting together. They were talking happily and seemed to be dating. To be honest, I never knew that Miss Ming would smile sincerely.

Princess Minghua is still beautiful, but it seems that Miss Ming was still not fully immersed in her performance. That’s fine. I originally thought that in the original work, Princess Minghua was the consort, and the tutor was just an ignorant fantasy of her girlhood. What do you think?

Woolen cloth?"

Mu Tingzhou turned a page of the script.

The other end of the phone couldn't wait for a long time and hung up.

Mu Tingzhou watched the plot with his eyes, but the Princess Minghua played by Ming Wei came to mind. Ming Wei was a rookie, but the princess she played was innocent and innocent in front of the prince. Her simple and happy smile was enough to cover up her immature acting skills.
