Yun Nan smiled as she looked at Yun Liu and replied, “I’m flattered by your consideration, but unfortunately, I’m also quite stubborn. When I heard he was going to have dinner with his friends today, I decided to come with him to stake my claim. I wanted to let those who covet my husband know he has a jealous, sharp-tongued, and unforgiving wife.”

She continued, “Being married to Shi Nian is like prancing around with the crown jewels. Although no one dares to come up and snatch them from me, I feel uncomfortable being stared at. It can’t be helped. I’m a very possessive woman, so I’m now making it clear that he’s mine. Shi Nian, is that okay with you?”

Shi Nian’s cold expression softened, and he actually smiled as he answered, “Of course it is. I have no objections. Just make sure you keep me with you; you can’t let go of me—not for a lifetime. You have to keep this promise.”

The others were again caught off guard by another one of their public displays of affection. Lin Yu didn’t Imow what to say. She looked sheepish as she gripped Gu Man tightly and held her back, not letting her speak. She didn’t care if the force she used hurt her friend.

The restaurant manager knocked on the door and came in with a couple of attendants to bring them a fruit platter. Her arrival was just in time to ease the awkwardness in the private room. Lin Yu heaved a sigh of relief.

The restaurant manager instructed the attendants to place the fruit platter in the middle of the table, but they didn’t leave straight after that. Instead, they stood at the side with smiles on their faces.

The restaurant manager only spoke up when Xi Cheng and Shi Nian looked over. “Mr. Xi, Mr. Shi, our staff here have a favor to ask.”

Shi Nian and Xi Cheng glanced at each other and then asked, “Go on. What’s this about?”

When the manager heard this, she looked at Yun Nan and requested, “Director Yun, can we please have your autograph as a souvenir?”

Yun Nan didn’t expect the manager to be here looking for her. Before she could reply, the two attendants behind the manager bowed and said, “Director Yun, we all like your movie very much. It was a pleasant surprise seeing you in person today. The staff didn’t want to disturb you, so they sent us as representatives. If you don’t mind, can we please have your autograph?”

‘ Theyre all my fans,’ Yun Nan thought, surprised. She smiled and stated, “No problem. Where would you like me to sign?”

The manager and attendants were overjoyed. One of the attendants quickly replied, “We have copies of your novel. Can you autograph them for us?” “Sure.” Yun Nan nodded. Being liked was something to be happy about.

“Then, we’ll bring the books over,” the attendant told her, and the staff headed towards the exit.

“Hey, wait, do you have a lot of them? Why don’t I go with you guys and sign the books outside so you don’t have to carry them in and out?” Yun Nan considerately suggested.

The manager was charmed and uttered, “Then, please follow me. I’ll show you where the books are.”

“I’ll be right back,” Yun Nan softly whispered to Shi Nian as she got up. Shi Nian held her hand before letting “Alright, come back soon.” Yun Nan gave him a sweet smile and left. No one spoke in the private room for a long time until Shi Nian picked up his cup and took a sip.

“What does she do exactly?” Gu Man mumbled nearly inaudibly.

This time, Shi Nian didn’t ignore her. Instead, he nonchalantly informed her,

“She’s a director. She produced the movie ‘4:30 P.M.’ that recently came out.”

Lin Yu and her friends were stunned. They hadn’t watched the movie but knew how popular it was.

“She’s a director?” Gu Man repeated, dumbfounded. The funny thing was she had just mocked her for being a two-bit celebrity.

Shi Gao didn’t expect the young and innocent-looking girl was actually a famous director. Lin Yu was even more embarrassed and tried to explain herself. “Shi Nian, I’m sorry. We went a bit too far today. I thought that since you and Xi Cheng are close friends, we—your wives—would be as close as sisters-in-law in the future. I didn’t think Yun Nan would get unhappy with our teasing today. As her sister-in-law, I’m very sorry.”

“It’s fine; it really isn’t that serious. Yun Nan isn’t unhappy, but perhaps she made someone else unhappy?” Shi Nian commented indifferently. “However, I support her actions; I think she did the right thing. When I married her, I promised I would be her safe harbor and protect her forever.”

He continued, “But I’m quite happy today because she finally staked her claim on me. She’d refused to come to our social gatherings and meet my friends, so I was quite uneasy. I was afraid she didn’t want me. After all, she’s too talented, and I love her too much.”

Shi Nian clinked his wine glass with Xi Cheng’s. “So, consider us even, buddy. But there won’t be a next time.”

Xi Cheng silently drank the wine in his glass. He understood that when Shi

Nian said ‘there wouldn’t be a next time,’ he meant he didn’t want to see Gu

Man again. If he did… Xi Cheng was uncertain what the man would do then..
