Zhong Yuhuan sped up and walked to the door.
The two members of the girl group amicably greeted Zhong Yuhuan with some flattery, “Miss Zhong.”
“Where’s Li Jinyuan?”
“Brother Li just received a call and said that he has something urgent, so he left first.”
“Brother Li didn’t say anything else, and we couldn’t hear the contents of the phone call either,” the girl said.
Zhong Yuhuan took out her phone and was about to call Li Jinyuan when he called her first, “Huanhuan, are you downstairs?”
“I am. Where are you?”
“Sorry, brother Wei just called me. There’s a bit of trouble, so I’m going to deal with it first.” Li Jinyuan laughed a bit as he spoke. “To be honest, I really don’t want you to go now that I can’t bring you over.”
Zhong Yuhuan’s heart jumped, the latter half of Li Jinyuan’s words immediately catching her attention.
Li Jinyuan instantly added with a smile, “Ah, after all, there are many more male celebrities here than last time, so what if they all covet Huanhuan?”
His implication was that he wasn’t only targeting Huo Chengming.
Zhong Yuhuan opened her mouth. “It’s not like I’m money.”
Li Jinyuan laughed again but didn’t continue the conversation.
He hung up, thinking that she wasn’t money, but much better than it.
Zhong Yuhuan put her phone away and the two girls beside her immediately invited her to head over with them.
Before Zhong Yuhuan could respond, her phone rang again. She thought that it would be from Wei Jie, informing her of what had happened, but it was Huo Chengming.
“Are you downstairs?”
“Yes.”
“I’m also there.”
Zhong Yuhuan looked around and accurately located Huo Chengming’s Mercedes Benz from the other cars.
The window of the Mercedes rolled down, revealing Huo Chengming’s face.
“Huanhuan, come in.”
“Didn’t you go to the restaurant already?”
“The discussion ended, so I came to pick you up.”
“Okay then.”
Zhong Yuhuan turned back and saw the two girls looking at her with envy. Zhong Yuhuan felt her heart jerk and took the initiative in inviting them. “Want to go together?”
The girls were naturally very happy and hurriedly agreed.
Zhong Yuhuan opened the car door, sitting in the passenger seat.
The girls sat in the back row, making Huo Chengming’s expression turn dark.
After the girls got in, they continued to chatter.
“Mr. Huo’s so nice, personally picking up Miss Zhong even for such a short distance.”
“Miss Zhong and Mr. Huo must have a great relationship, right?”
Huo Chengming’s expression immediately became much better.
Zhong Yuhuan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at this.
If his subordinates saw this, they would definitely feel like they found a shortcut to promotion using flattery!
When they arrived at the restaurant, Zhong Yuhuan was still worried about what happened to Li Jinyuan, causing her to be a bit absent-minded throughout the meal.
There were really some male celebrities who made advances at her, but they were all ignored.
Seeing others repeatedly be shut down, Huo Chengming’s expression was absolutely amazing, even drinking an extra three glasses of wine!
All the way until dinner was over.
Zhong Yuhuan finally couldn’t resist calling Li Jinyuan again.
… No answer.
Zhong Yuhuan’s expression suddenly turned serious and hurriedly called Wei Jie.
Picking up, Wei Jie was stunned. “I went to discuss a contract on behalf of Mr. Li today. I couldn’t reach him, and therefore, nothing happened.”
It was Zhong Yuhuan’s turn to be stunned. “… Then what’s going on? What happened to him?
What would he need to keep from her?
Or did he really meet with danger?
Zhong Yuhuan immediately decided, “You need to call him every once in a while to confirm whether or not he’s safe. I’ll go back to the hotel and get someone to check the security footage.”
Wei Jie answered, “Yes, yes!”
“What happened?” Huo Chengming heard what she said during the phone call and asked.
“Li Jinyuan left with a car this evening and now my calls aren’t getting through.” Zhong Yuhuan informed Huo Chengming of the general situation.
Huo Chengming thought that it would be better if he didn’t come back.
But thoughts were just thoughts. Huo Chengming still immediately drove the car over. “We’ll first check the security footage and find his license plate. Then, I’ll send people to investigate. Don’t worry, nothing will happen.”
Zhong Yuhuan nodded.
After returning to the hotel, Huo Chengming quickly got the car’s license plate.
“I’m already looking into it. You’ve used up a lot of energy today so return to your room and rest first. If there’s some information later, I’ll go find you.” Although Huo Chengming wanted to continue to be with Zhong Yuhuan, fatigue showed on her face. He couldn’t follow her into her room to rest together either, so he only brought her to her room and then left.
After going back downstairs, Huo Chengming investigated what happened perfunctorily. He actually ordered people to check the license plate carefully, and a few others to find out if Li Jinyuan’s agency had any troubles recently.
Zhong Yuhuan wanted to wait for news but fell asleep on the sofa while waiting.
When she woke, it was to the sound of knocking.
Zhong Yuhuan instantly got up.
It should be news about Li Jinyuan.
Zhong Yuhuan quickly walked over and opened the door.
And was immediately tightly embraced by someone. The person was much taller than her, and Zhong Yuhuan felt her feet leaving the ground with the hug.
She was startled. “… Li Jinyuan? You’re back?”
Li Jinyuan increased the strength of his hug, and with a hint of sorrow in his voice, he hoarsely whispered in her ear, “Huanhuan, if I really leave you, will you grieve?”
No, what’s happening?
Zhong Yuhuan was dumbstruck.
Was he deliberately playing cat and mouse with her? Or… or did he have some incurable disease?
Zhong Yuhuan immediately felt a bit ill…
Zhong Yuhuan sped up and walked to the door.
The two members of the girl group amicably greeted Zhong Yuhuan with some flattery, “Miss Zhong.”
“Where’s Li Jinyuan?”
“Brother Li just received a call and said that he has something urgent, so he left first.”
