Chapter 307
The charity gala was not only a performance show by the stars, but also the launch of several charity projects by Universal Entertainment, and the response and participation of the stars was very high.
Ruona thought it was great to see how the celebrities responded so positively to the charity event, whether it was out of sincerity or for the sake of fame.
The whole party had a great atmosphere and Ruona didn’t want to miss a single program, so she didn’t get up to leave until the end of the night.
Before she left, she told Xiao Xu and the others that she would bring all the material she had filmed back to the company, and that she would work overnight to write the press release with them.
Leaving from the scene, Ruona contacted Leo and asked him to take her to find Ethan.
Leo tells her that Sae-jin is in the VIP room on the third floor.
Ruona arrived at the door of the VIP room on the third floor and was about to open the door and go in, but she heard the sound of a faint conversation coming from inside.
She frowned, thinking that Ethan had guests and was too embarrassed to disturb them, so she withdrew her hand to open the door and stood to the side, thinking that she would go in after Ethan had finished his work.
And just then, the door suddenly opened, startling her, and she quickly turned to look.
Only to see a tall, upright figure walk out, and upon seeing Ruona standing by the door, she was stunned, then hooked up an evil smile, “Are you here to find my big brother?”
“Big brother?” Eventually, Ruona looked at the man who came out with confusion.
The man smiled even more and looked at her with more than a hint of interest, “Looks like you’re the woman my brother was talking about, right?”
A brother? Women?
Ruona didn’t know him at all and didn’t understand what he was saying.
“Chunchu.” A familiar voice came, Ruona raised her eyes and saw Ethan standing right behind the strange man.
In a split second, a bright smile filled her small face, and she hurriedly ran in from the man’s side.
“Sae-jin.” She stopped in front of Ethan Lu and looked up at him with a shallow smile on her face.
Ethan Lu helped her smoothen her disheveled, broken hair behind her ears, his eyebrows full of spoiling, he smiled gently, “Why are you only coming up now?”
“The show was so good. The gala was really great, I’ll give you a compliment.” Said Ruona with a thumbs up and a playful wink at him.
“It’s good that you liked it.” Ethan Lu rubbed her head, his eyes rippling with tenderness.
The man standing in the doorway saw this scene and his eyes became thoughtful.
In the meantime, Ruona glanced at the figure in the doorway, and asked in a small voice, “Ethan, who is he?”
Although she had an answer in her heart, she still wanted to confirm it.
Ethan Lu faintly swept his eyes at the door, and in a somewhat cold tone, he responded, “The second young master of the Lu family, Lu Chendong.”
Ruona’s thin eyebrows, that is, the half-brother with Ethan Shengyao, the brother of that Lu Chendong from last time.
Ruona turned her head to look like Lu Chendong, who was also looking at her, with a shallow smile on his still quite handsome face, he seemed like a pretty nice person.
“Big brother, is this your girlfriend?” Lu Chendong tentatively opened his mouth to ask.
Ethan Lu didn’t answer, just looked at him coldly.
Lu Chendong didn’t mind in the slightest, but instead, the smile on his face grew deeper, and the look on Ruona’s eyes grew deeper.
Ruona’s eyebrows were locked and she subconsciously moved closer to Ethan Lu’s side.
Lu Chendong’s eyes really made her feel uncomfortable.
Ethan Lu raised his eyes to look at Lu Chendong, his eyes sunk a bit, he raised his hand and hugged Ruona into his arms, then said in a cold and hard tone, “Go back and tell the old man that I will go to the Lu family, but not now, and ask him not to do something in vain.”
Lu Chendong laughed lightly, “Big brother you are really as personable as ever ee.”
He then looked at Ruona, “I apologize for him about Tatsumi, this was Ben’s fault, let him stay in the detention center for a few more days.”
With that said, he nodded slightly towards Ruona, then turned around and left.
“Why is he here?”
After Lu Chendong left, Ruona opened her mouth to ask the question in her heart.
Not only did he come, but he looked as if he was quite respectful of Ethan, and there was no hostility.
“The old man sent him to bring Lu Chendong back.” Ethan Lu’s eyebrows were slightly drawn together, his appearance was somewhat gloomy, and the hand on her shoulder unconsciously tightened.
Ruona felt it, she looked sideways at the hand on her shoulder, pursed her l!ps, and then asked, “You don’t like Lu Chendong?”
“Why should I like it?” Ethan Lu asked instead of answering the question.
Then, he added, “He’s far from as simple as he looks.”
Ruona frowned, “He seems to be completely different from Lu Chenxi.”
One was mature and stable, the other was a hangdog, the two brothers’ personalities were far too different.
“Mm.” Ethan Lu faintly responded, he didn’t want to say Lu Chendong again, so he changed his words and said, “Let’s go home.”
“Go home?” Ruona shook her head, “I need to work late at night, I’m going straight to the office later.”
Ethan Lu raised his eyebrows and didn’t say anything, just smiled and rubbed her head, “Okay, I’ll send you to the office.”
“Mm.” Ruona nodded with a smile.
The two of them harmoniously walked out of the VIP room, and after they left, a long figure from a dim corner walked out, looking at their departing backs.
“Ruona.” He muttered, a wry smile curving his l!ps.
Ethan Lu dropped Ruona off at the entrance of Golden Frame’s company.
Ruona looked at the company building, then turned to the man in the driver’s seat and said, “Ethan, I’m leaving.”
Saying that, she unbuckled her seatbelt and reached out to open the door.
Suddenly, her hand was grabbed and she turned back, only to see Ethan smiling gently and lightly, “Did you forget something?”
“Well?” Ruona looked bewildered.
Ethan Lu lifted his hand and nudged his l!ps, then raised his eyebrows at her.
Ruona reacted at once, laughed lightly, bit her lip somewhat shyly, and whirled over to k!ss him on the l!ps.
“That’s it?” Ethan Lu raised an eyebrow.
“Or what?” Ruona didn’t have the good sense to skim her lower lip.
“A real k!ss is like this.”
Saying that, he raised his hand to clasp the back of her head, and then covered her l!ps, his hot tongue invading inside her l!ps, entangling her, tangling with it.
Ruona could only grip his lapel tightly, slightly tilted her head, closed her eyes to feel his breath, her heart throbbed non-stop.
k!ssing, he reluctantly left her l!ps, dropping his eyes, his gaze fell on her delicate l!ps, his eyes sunk a few points.
“I really don’t want you to get off.” He murmured lowly, his voice with the sexy huskiness after emotion.
Ruona’s heart tip trembled, turned her eyes, and said slightly shyly, “I’ll be home early.”
“I’ll wait for you.” He k!ssed her gently again before releasing her.
“You’ll be home early.” Ruona curled her l!ps and smiled, then opened the door and got off the car, walking quickly towards the building.
Only after seeing her enter the building did Ethan Lu start the car and leave.
Chapter 308
The charity gala ended with guests and audience retreating in two separate corridors.
Shen Nettle didn’t leave in a hurry, but looked around for the familiar figure.
The agent came over and tugged on her hand, questioning her sternly; “Don’t leave yet, what are you dawdling here for?”
Shen Nettle lowered her head, smiled at the agent, and asked, “Sister Qing, have you seen Brother Yan?”
“Wordsmith?” Qing was stunned, then shook her head, “I didn’t see it. What? You want to find him?”
“Hmm.” Shen Nettle nodded, then continued to look around, trying to find the familiar figure in the crowd.
Seeing this, some impatience appeared on Qing’s face as she tugged on Shen Nettle’s arm, “What are you looking for Yan Xu, I don’t have this American time to accompany you here looking for someone.”
“Besides,” Sister Qing snorted, “Don’t think that just because you’ve made a movie with Yan Xu, you have a good relationship with someone, beware of being photographed by reporters and scolded by his fans for backstabbing.”
“It won’t happen, Sister Qing.”
Shen Nettle’s unconcerned tone of voice made Qing’s brow furrowed tightly, if Shen Nettle was young and ignorant, this she could accept, but so “single stupid”, thinking things so simple, then she could not accept.
So, Sister Qing dragged her directly to the sports center outside.
“Sister Qing, what are you doing?” Shen Nettle was forced to pull away, but still, she didn’t forget to look around for Wordsmith.
“I’m your Sister Qing, how can I let you do something stupid.”
Sister Qing’s words made Shen Nettle burst into tears, she was just trying to find Brother Yan and ask him if he was free tomorrow, she wanted to treat him to dinner.
How come Sister Qing had brainstormed so much about a simple thing like that?
So what if the press caught it? Just come out and explain when the time comes.
Just a simple friend, what’s there to be nervous about.
She really didn’t understand.
Sister Qing was the agent she had brought with her since her debut, and although her attitude sometimes wasn’t very good, she had always been very dutiful to her.
So, seeing Sister Qing like this, Shen Nettle could only smile helplessly and give up on the idea of finding Yan Xu.
In the future, there would always be a chance to invite Brother Yan to dinner.
Sister Qing pulled her out of the sports center, the nanny car has been waiting outside for a long time, as soon as they saw them come out, the driver of the car immediately opened the door.
And just when Shen Nettle bent to get into the car, the corner of her eyes glanced at a suv parked not far away, very familiar.
She subconsciously turned her head to look, and the moment she saw the license plate, her eyes floated with joy.
She couldn’t care less about Qing and directly turned around and ran towards that car.
The suddenness of the situation caused Sister Qing to have no time to react, and by the time she wanted to reach out and grab her, the person had already run far away.
Shen Nettle ran to the side of the car, the special glass so she couldn’t see inside, so she leaned over and pressed against the glass, trying to look inside.
At that moment, the car window glass suddenly slowly lowered, scaring her so much that she quickly stepped back.
The car window lowered completely, revealing a handsome and extraordinary face.
It was Yan Xu.
The corner of Shen Nettle’s l!ps raised greatly, and she shouted crisply, “Brother Yan.”
Yan Hsu looked at her with an indifferent look, “Something wrong?”
His tone was a bit cold, but Shen Nettle didn’t seem to notice, still smiling brightly, “I just wanted to ask Brother Yan, are you free tomorrow?”
After the question, she shyly dropped her eyes, not daring to look at him, her hands stirring together nervously in front of her.
Two people, one sitting in the car, one standing outside the car, silence flowed quietly between them, the surrounding noises seemed to be unable to affect them.
For a long time, Yan Xu’s calm voice without a hint of rising and falling sounded, “Sorry, I have other arrangements.”
Upon hearing that, Shen Nettle raised her eyes to look at him, and in her eyes was undisguised disappointment, “Ah, you’re not free?”
Yan Xu nodded, “I’m not free.”
“Shen Nettle, are you really trying to piss me off?” Sister Qing came over and raised her hand to knock Shen Nettle’s head, then smiled apologetically at the car’s Yan Xu, “Yan Xu, sorry for the delay, I’ll bring this girl back.”
Saying that, she made a gesture to knock Shen Nettle’s head again, “You girl.”
Suddenly, her hand stopped in mid-air and her words got choked up as she looked at Arthraxon.
I saw that Shen Nettle was looking at her with tears in both eyes, she looked so pitiful.
Sister Qing frowned, can’t be? She didn’t hit her hard enough to make her cry?
Yan Hsu also saw that Shen Nettle was crying, but he just swept his eyes faintly, then closed the window and ordered the driver to drive.
The car slowly drove away, and Shen Nettle’s teary eyes fell even harder as she watched the car drift away.
“Does it hurt?” When Sister Qing saw her crying so hard, she panicked and raised her hand to help her rub her knocked head.
But she dodged it, and Qing’s eyebrows furrowed even tighter, “Shen Nettle, are you having a tantrum?”
Shen nettle looked at her, then raised her hand to wipe the tears, threw down a “no” and turned towards the nanny car.
Sister Qing is like a monk who can’t understand what’s going on with this girl, she is completely bewildered.
“Mr. Words, Miss Tang has gone to the office to work overtime, would you like to go over to her directly or find another time?”
The assistant in the passenger seat turned his head to look at the backseat’s Yan Xu.
Yan Xu was leaning against the back of the seat with his eyes closed, when he heard the assistant’s words, he slowly opened his eyes, his narrow black eyes were unusually deep, he recited for a moment, his thin l!ps light, “Go directly to Golden Frame.”
“Yes.” The assistant responded, then told the driver to turn around at the intersection ahead.
Today he saw her in the crowd, she looked even more beautiful than in the pictures, and the moment he saw her, he realized that missing can’t be relieved by just looking at the pictures.
Because as soon as he saw her, all the thoughts rose up in his heart.
He really missed her.
Ruona, Xiao Xu and the others battled in front of the computer, they had to release the news earlier than other media.
The public’s attention was focused on the celebrities, but Ruona and the others wanted to be different.
What they focused on was this charity charity action.
So they had to write the news more attentively this time.
Ruona felt like she was going blind as she picked the photos she had taken at the scene, although the main one was the charity and public service action.
But the red carpet photos of stars were also hot spots that could not be avoided. No matter if it was a charity gala or any other gala, the star’s attire was always a matter of concern.
So this is one of the news gimmicks.
As a media person, you can’t miss such hot spots.
But there are so many photos and so many celebrities, it’s really a tough task to pick the best ones.
Chapter 309
Ruona stretched her back and turned to a few colleagues who were working just as hard as she was, a pleased smile on her face.
She stood up and clapped her hands.
The others looked up at her, only to see her smile and ask, “Are you hungry? Let’s order something to eat if you’re hungry.”
“I’m hungry!” Upon hearing the call for food, Xiao Xu was the first to raise his hand.
Ruona couldn’t help but smile, “Since you’re the first one to call out for hunger, then such an important task as ordering food will be given to you.”
“Promise to complete the task!” Xiao Xu answered without saying a word, then picked up his notebook and walked over to Ruona, “Sister Ruona, what do you want to eat?”
“I won’t have to, you guys can eat whatever you want, it’s on me.”
A cheer went up in the office as soon as her voice fell.
Ruona smiled at Xiao Xu and the others’ happy looks, then picked up her cup and walked towards the pantry.
She was never used to eating late night snacks, so she made a packet of milk and carried it over to the pantry window.
It was late at night, the sky was dark, and there was no light at all. The ground was a stark contrast to the sea of bright lights.
The first thing you need to do is to take a sip of the milk, she raised her hand and gently scratched the glass, her eyes rippled with soft light.
I don’t know if Sei Jin has arrived home yet.
“Ruona-san.”
Someone behind her suddenly called out to her, and she turned around, only to see Xiao Xu standing at the door.
“Sister Ruona, someone is calling you.”
In the meantime, Ruona was calling her at such a late hour, was it Ethan?
She hurried out of the pantry and went to her spot, flipped out her phone from her bag, and was surprised when she looked at the caller ID.
It was Yan Xu.
She quickly picked it up, “Hello, I’m Ruona.”
Her polite tone made Yan Hsu on the other side of the phone frown slightly, and her tightly pursed thin l!ps pursed a trace of displeasure.
There was silence on the other end of the phone, so quiet that Ruona thought the phone had been hung up and quickly took a look.
It’s still on the phone!
She put it back in her ear, “Yan Xu, what’s the matter this late?”
Yan Hsu, what are you doing here so late?
She asked this as if he couldn’t call her if he was fine.
The corner of Yan Xu’s l!ps overflowed with a helpless smile, then he slowly spoke, “Ruona, I’m downstairs.”
Downstairs? Ruona frowned, “Is the company downstairs?”
A faint “hmm” came from the phone over there, Ruona’s eyebrows furrowed even tighter, from the last time they met, it seems to be some time ago.
It’s just that it’s so late, it seems a bit inappropriate for the two of them to meet, especially since he’s made his feelings clear to her, and if Ethan knew that it’s so late and she’s still meeting with Yan Xu, he might be upset.
But he had come over on purpose, so it wouldn’t be right if he didn’t meet her.
After a mental struggle, she took a deep breath, “I’ll go downstairs now.”
Then, she hung up the phone and turned to Xiao Xu and the others, who were still busy, and said, “I’m going out for a while and will be right back.”
“Well, you go ahead.” Xiao Xu looked up at her, then lowered his head and continued to be busy.
Ruona hurriedly walked out of the company building, and immediately saw a black suv on the side of the road.
That should be Yan Xu’s car, right?
With a question, she slowly approached the car, the windows lowered before the person approached.
She saw Yan Hsu, who was sitting in the back seat, and paused in her steps, then quickly walked over again.
“Yan Hsu.” She raised her l!ps and smiled at the car’s Yan Hsui.
The latter’s eyes looked deeply at her, then reached out, and with a pop, the car door opened from the inside.
“Come on up.” He said in a deep voice.
Uh, Ruona’s eyebrows raised, and her heart began to struggle with whether or not she should get in the car again.
Seeing that she was struggling, Yan Xu laughed lightly, “Don’t worry, I won’t do anything to you.”
Ruona, who was able to see through her mind, had a hot face and laughed dryly twice before getting into the car.
As soon as she sat in the car, the window slowly rose.
Only Yan Xu ordered, “You guys get off the car.”
Ruona knew that he was saying this to the driver and the others.
And after the driver and the others got off, they were the only two left in the car, and the atmosphere was once awkward.
Ruona’s hands on her lap stirred together uncomfortably, the excessively quiet car made her sit on pins and needles, and she had the urge to just open the door and get off.
I don’t know how long it took, but just when Ruona thought she would be tortured mad by the quiet atmosphere, the low voice of Yan Xu rang out in her ears.
“How have you been lately?”
Ruona was stunned, then smiled slightly, “Not bad. How about you?”
After asking, Ruona raised her hand to her forehead to shield her face from the sadness of why they had become so distant and polite to each other.
“I’m not bad either.” Yan Hsu looked at her sideways, an undetectable emotion stirring in the depths of his eyes.
“The filming went well, didn’t it?” Ruona felt the need to act like a normal friend, then began to ask about his work.
“It’s going pretty well.”
“When are you going to kill it?”
“Two more months.”
“Are you going back to Beining after killing the green?”
“Well, it’s going to be a break for a while.”
“It’s time to take a good break, filming is hard.”
Ruona said as she nodded her head, and Yan Xu couldn’t help but lose his smile, his narrow phoenix eyes floating with a hint of interest, “What about you? Not going to rest?”
“Me?” Ruona raised her eyebrows in slight apprehension.
“Well, you!” Yan Xu nodded, “I heard that you’re the chairman of Tang’s now, so you should be working harder than me.”
“It’s fine. I leave all of Tang’s to Ethan to help me with it, I just need to focus on my job.”
Upon hearing that, Yan Xu was silent for a moment, then smiled and said, “It seems he’s good to you.”
“Of course. He’s always been good to me.” When it came to Ethan Lu, Ruona’s face was an undisguised happy sweetness.
It made Yan Xu feel harsh, and the smile on his l!ps couldn’t help but fade a bit as his mind recalled what his assistant had told him.
Eyes narrowed, he asked in a deep voice, “Then did he tell you that his father arranged a blind date for him and that the person has already come to Beining.”
“A blind date?” Ruona blurted out in shock, then shook her head, “Impossible, Ethan and I are married, what blind date is his father arranging?”
It was ridiculous.
“Master Lu doesn’t know about your marriage.” Yan Xu looked at her steadily, clearly seeing the smile on her face slowly fade away.
He continued, “He’s the heir of the Lu family, do you think Master Lu would easily let him decide his own marriage?”
Ruona knew it wasn’t possible, but at the same time she also knew that Ethan wasn’t someone who would compromise.
What Master Lu thought was his business, the most important thing was what Ethan’s did.
What only shocked her was that Master Lu had arranged for a blind date to come to Belfrek, wasn’t that purely to add to Ethan’s problems?
