Hidden Marriage: A Heaven-sent Billionaire Husband - Chapter 1927
1927 Just To Meet You
Knowing that Lin Yu was here to support Ning Luyao, her hope was shattered, and her good temper was gone.
From the looks of it, it was impossible for Lin Yu to have any cooperative relationship with her. She might as well be tough. Perhaps she could salvage the situation.
“Qi Mei, I have 10,000 ways to get you off the set.”
Qi Mei’s face turned pale.
She regretted her tough attitude just now.
!!
She had underestimated Lin Yu’s strength.
For him to be able to do so well in two countries and remain invincible, there must be a power behind him that she could not resist.
If he had a way to make her leave the current production team, he must also have a way to make her unable to have any work in the future.
Ning Nuo looked at Lin Yu. When he spoke, his expression was still very calm. He did not have the kind of aura that could suppress others the moment he arrived. However, there was an invisible force that made people have no choice but to submit to him.
But… was he here to stand up for her?
Was he helping her take revenge for the previous two times?
He was even more handsome than before!
Ning Nuo touched the fruit knife she was carrying. To be able to solve a problem in such an imposing manner was even cooler than wielding a knife.
Lin Yu saw the change in Qi Mei’s expression and said calmly, “But now, I want to give you a chance. If you give Ning Luyao a resource, I’ll consider this matter settled.”
The reason why he didn’t chase her out of the set directly was that the filming was already one-third done.
If she was kicked out, all of Ning Luyao’s scenes would have to be reshot, that included the scenes of her riding a horse and diving. The difficulty was self-evident.
“How is that possible?” Qi Mei immediately refused.
He wanted her to give Ning Luyao a resource?
What did he take her for?
Besides, if she gave in, wouldn’t it mean that she admitted that she had done those two things?
“You only have two choices. Either you take the initiative to give in, or you wait to be forced to give in.” Lin Yu stood up, tidied his clothes, and was about to leave.
Qi Mei and her manager looked at each other. How could this be called having options?
This was clearly coercion, okay?
“Let’s go.” Lin Yu tilted his head to look at Ning Nuo. Seeing the brightness in her eyes, he couldn’t help but smile. “Aren’t we leaving?”
“Let’s go.” Ning Nuo, who was charmed by him, immediately nodded. With a step, her fruit knife fell to the ground with a clang. Yes, the sound was quite loud.
Ning Nuo hurriedly reached out to pick it up.
Qi Mei’s face turned pale with fear. What was going on?
Before Lin Yu’s car even left, Ning Nuo received a message from Qi Mei’s manager on her phone, informing her that she could take over Qi Mei’s event to showcase jewelry for the brand.
She just had to go on stage for two hours. There was no need for any follow-up service. The pay was one million yuan.
Not only did Ning Nuo feel that Lin Yu was handsome, but she also felt that money in this circle was too easy to earn.
“Qi Mei gave me a resource.” Ning Nuo handed her phone over.
“It’s expected.”
Ning Nuo nodded. “That’s true. But why are you helping me like this?”
“If I don’t help you, do you think I’ll let you fight her with a fruit knife?” Lin Yu gave her a sidelong glance.
Having her thoughts exposed by him, Ning Nuo was a little embarrassed. “I’m also a good citizen who follows the law, okay? It’s just that the other party has gone too far. If I don’t resist, won’t I be scammed to death?”
“A more civilized solution is better.”
“I know it’s better, but I don’t know…” Ning Nuo muttered. She knew nothing about this industry.
As Lin Yu drove, he suddenly slowed down and leaned toward her. “Nuo Nuo.”
The way he called her Nuo Nuo was much gentler than when he said the name ‘Ning Luyao.’ There was a special lingering tone that made Ning Nuo sober up. “That’s my nickname. You don’t have to call me by my nickname. Call me by my real name.”
“Okay.” Lin Yu turned around and focused on driving. “Nuo Nuo.”
Ning Nuo was angry.
Lin Yu knew what secret she was keeping. He had asked Sister Ai to investigate this secret, and it was easy to come to a conclusion.
However, since she was the one guarding it and she did not choose to tell him, he did not mind helping her guard it for now. When she wanted to tell him, she would naturally tell him, right?
“Let’s have dinner together tonight,” Lin Yu said.
“Let me treat you to a meal.” Ning Nuo thought that he invited her to a meal because of their contractual relationship.
If she was the one who invited him, she could avoid this relationship.
She secretly regretted accepting his check. What did he think of her now? A contract girlfriend? A gold digger?
Or what?
Ning Nuo wanted to strangle herself.
Without waiting for Lin Yu to respond, she explained, “Take it as repayment for saving my life last night. Let me treat you.”
“Okay.” Lin Yu didn’t object.
“Then let’s go eat hotpot, okay?” Ning Nuo suggested. She didn’t have much of an appetite recently, so she just ate whatever she wanted for dinner.
Hotpot actually depended on whether one was in the mood to eat it or not. Most importantly, it also depended on the person they were eating with.
Naturally, Lin Yu didn’t object. The two of them drove to a hotpot restaurant that was better hidden.
As they were eating hotpot, the two of them were in a better mood, especially Ning Nuo. She picked up the menu and asked for Lin Yu’s preferences. She crossed out a few dishes and handed the menu back to the waiter. “Other than those that have been crossed out, give me everything else.”
Seeing such a bold way of ordering, Lin Yu couldn’t help but laugh.
When he smiled, he raised his eyebrows slightly. He had the elegance of a noble young master.
Ning Nuo was a little embarrassed, but when she remembered that it was her treat, she straightened her chest. “If you want to eat, you have to eat well.”
Before the pot could be placed on the table, Brother Yong’s call came. “Ning Nuo, what’s going on with the resource Qi Mei gave you? They’ve already sent you the contract!”
Most importantly, not only did Qi Mei give Ning Nuo a resource, but she also helped Ning Nuo’s side make connections with the company. Brother Yong didn’t need to do anything. When the time came, Ning Nuo could just go over directly.
This was simply a piece of pie falling from the sky.
When did Qi Mei become such a good person?
“It’s our sisterhood.” Ning Nuo didn’t dare to mention Lin Yu, afraid that her eardrums would hurt from Brother Yong’s nagging.
“When did you become such good friends with her?” Brother Yong was really surprised.
“Let’s not talk about it anymore. I’m eating hotpot now. Let’s talk later.”
Ning Nuo hung up the phone.
The dishes had already been served. Lin Yu took out his chopsticks, and when he was handling the dishes with his fair fingers, his veins were slightly bulging. Amidst the smoke and fire, he looked like a fairy.
The two contradictory temperaments of smoke and fire formed a very unique elegance in him.
It was not until he put a piece of hot tripe into her bowl that Ning Nuo came back to her senses and lowered her head to eat.
