Flash Marriage: The Prince's Contract Wife Novel - Chapter 97

Chapter 97: What’s the matter?

However, she didn’t expect Lin Xiu ‘er to also see her and even reveal a provocative gaze. She didn’t know where her confidence came from.

“Heh …” Joes laughed helplessly and shifted her gaze, too lazy to pay attention to Lin Xiu ‘er.

The food on the two tables had been ordered by director Wu. He raised his glass and said to everyone in the restaurant,””I hope everyone can work well together. If there’s anything you want to eat, don’t hold back.”

Director Wu’s words were met with a wave of cheers. Everyone raised their glasses, including joesse.

After finishing a glass of wine, the dining room also served the exquisite dishes on the table.

Joes picked up a mouthful of food and could not help but exclaim. As expected of the special food of Fog City. The taste was indeed not bad, and one could not help but take a few more bites.

“Sisi, this is delicious.” Lin ya said in a low voice as she picked up a piece of white and tender fish meat for joesse. The fish meat exuded a faint fragrance.

Joes took a bite and squinted her eyes. The taste exploded in her taste buds. It was indeed not bad!

This meal was also an opportunity for everyone to get to know each other. Other than Qiao si si and the other Jin Yu jewelry designers, there were four other guests who were participating in the show.

They were all quite famous artistes in the entertainment industry and would definitely work with them in the future.

The other three people thought so, but Lin Xiu ‘er didn’t think so. If it wasn’t for the fact that she needed to maintain her image in front of the public, she would have mocked Joes long ago.

She was just a commoner, yet she dared to be with Zheng Zeyi. It was really embarrassing.

Lin Xiu ‘er’s mocking gaze was noticed by Qiao si si. She took a sip of the tea on the table, but the corners of her mouth revealed a faint smile.

Other than Lin Xiu ‘er, one of the three artistes was a girl, and the other three were boys.

The girl’s name was Bai ran, and she was a skilled actress with a lot of fans. Her film and television works were basically all top-notch, and she was fully deserving of the title of Best Actress.

If Lin Xiu ‘er’s fans were to be compared to Bai ran’ s, the difference would only be ten times.

It was not because Lin Xiu ‘er had few fans, but because Bai ran had a lot of fans. She entered the entertainment industry because she had a dream of being an actress. The scripts she took on were all well-received and had a good plot. Her acting skills were also excellent.

Just this point alone was enough to attract fans, not to mention her beautiful appearance and cute personality.

Other than Bai ran, the other three boys were also well-known in the entertainment industry. Two of them were popular young men, Lin Lin and Mo Xu, and the other was a middle-aged uncle with an idiotic character. His name was primordial.

A moment later, the first person to speak was uncle primordial. He raised his glass and said with a smile,””Hello, everyone. I’m primordial. Nice to meet you.”

In fact, he was a generation older than Bai ran and the others. Moreover, he was also an influential figure in the entertainment industry. Therefore, it was quite surprising that he was so friendly at this time.

In the next second, Joes and Bai ran raised their glasses at the same time, followed by the others.

“Bai ran, nice to meet you.” Bai ran smiled, revealing two cute dimples. She took a sip of the wine in her glass.

Joes did as she was told and introduced herself. Everyone took turns to introduce themselves and became more familiar with each other.

In order to liven up the atmosphere, Sheng Yuan’s gaze fell on Lin Xiu ‘er and smiled.””Do Xiu-er and sisi know each other? Why else would you keep looking at her?”

Even the way they addressed each other was much more intimate, unconsciously pulling the relationship between them closer.

It was indeed her own hard work that allowed her to become a famous person in the entertainment industry. With this attitude of hers, it was likely that everyone who saw her would have a good impression of her.

Lin Xiu ‘er’s heart tightened when she heard primordial’s words, and her eyes flickered. She did not expect that she would be discovered just by looking at Joes occasionally.

This person was too nosy!

Cursing inwardly, Lin Xiu ‘er did not dare to say this kind of words on the surface. Otherwise, the consequences would be too ghastly to imagine.

“Sisi and I … We can be considered acquaintances.” A faint smile appeared on Lin Xiu ‘er’s face as she spoke gently. She was still very good at acting in this aspect.

After hearing that, Joes almost laughed out coldly.

When did she get to know Lin Xiu ‘er? This was really hard to explain. If she didn’t say anything about the incident at the restaurant, did Lin Xiu ‘er really think that she, Jossi, would not retaliate?

“You know him?” A look of surprise appeared on primordial’s face as she looked back and forth between the two.

Bai ran was also very sharp and could sense that the atmosphere was a little off. She quickly said,””Alright, uncle. Let’s not talk about this anymore. Eat more. You won’t have the chance to do so tomorrow when we start filming.”

Seeing that Bai ran had given her a way out, primordial also took the opportunity to step down and did not continue to mention the matter between Joes and Lin Xiu ‘er.

The dinner went on as usual. After they changed the topic, it didn’t seem so awkward anymore.

After a long time, many people were tipsy.

Lin ya was the same. She patted her head and said,””Sisi, I’m going outside to get some fresh air. I’ll come in later.”

She had only drunk a little too much, but she was not drunk. Joesse was clear about this.

However, he still asked worriedly,””Can you? Do you want me to bring you out?”

Lin ya shook her head,””It’s fine. I’ll go out by myself and call my family to let them know that I’m safe. ”

With that, she got up and walked out. Everyone was so drunk that they didn’t notice Lin ya’s departure.

Seeing that Lin ya’s footsteps were still steady, joesse did not chase after her. It should not be a problem.

Remembering Lin ya’s words about reporting her safety, joesse suddenly realized that she had forgotten something. She picked up her phone and saw a lot of unread messages.

They were all from Chen Anna. Zheng Zeyi … Joes glanced at the message list but did not see any messages.

She heaved a sigh of relief. At this moment, she didn’t know whether she was feeling disappointed or something else.

After replying to Chen Anna’s messages, Joes put away her phone and poured a cup of tea to sober her up.

She didn’t drink much, but she didn’t want to drink at this time. It was better to be careful when she was out.

At this time, Lin Xiu ‘er walked over with a cup of wine.

“Jossi …”

Upon hearing this, Qiao si raised her eyes slightly and saw Lin Xiu ‘er, who had exquisite makeup on, holding a tall glass with red liquid inside.

She squinted her eyes slightly, but she did not back down. “What’s the matter?”

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiu ‘er chuckled and raised the wine cup in her hand, her eyes flashing with a strange light.

“What could it be? I just wanted to have a drink with you.”

Joes laughed. Since she was wearing this fake face, she would just play along.

“Alright.”

Joes also picked up her glass, but it was not filled with wine, but light-colored tea.
