The man looked at Lu Zhen’s puzzled and stupid gaze and completely believed that Lu Zhen was indeed lost. He felt bored and looked at the waiter. He said impatiently, “She’s the one who called you.”
The waiter hurriedly said to Lu Zhen, “Miss, what’s the matter?” Lu Zhen said awkwardly, “I’m sorry, I’m lost. Where are the stairs?”
The waiter immediately said, “I’ll bring you there. Please follow me.”
Lu Zhen heaved a sigh of relief and did not dare to delay. She immediately followed the waiter.
Looking at Lu Zhen’s disappearing figure, Lin Sui rolled his eyes. “Your brain is all over your face.”
Lu Zhen went downstairs and saw Song Jia waiting for her at her original spot. She hurriedly walked over and said apologetically, “I’m sorry, 1 was delayed upstairs. Mr. Samir isn’t here yet?”
Song Jia asked with concern, “What’s wrong? Why did you go upstairs?”
Lu Zhen felt a little embarrassed, but she still said honestly, “My stomach suddenly hurt. I thought it was my period, but I didn’t expect it to not be. It was a false alarm.’
Song Jia frowned. “Why would your stomach hurt? Did you eat something stimulating?”
Lu Zhen shook her head. “l probably didn’t rest well these past few days. It’s fine, It doesn’t hurt anymore,”
“Wait for me.” Song Jia left for two minutes. When he returned, he was holding a glass. He handed the glass to Lu Zhen. “Drink some hot water.”
Lu Zhen looked at the cup of hot water with mixed feelings. When girls were not feeling well, did boys think that drinking hot water was useful? Lu Zhen did not want to reject Song Jia’s good intentions. She took a glass and took two
The two of them sat down. Lu Zhen hugged her cup and said, “l was lost on the second floor just now. I didn’t expect the second floor to be so big.”
Song Jia did not expect Lu Zhen to be lost. In his opinion, the layout of the second floor was quite normal. It seemed that he could not let Lu Zhen run to unfamiliar places alone in the future. It would be troublesome if she got lost.
Song Jia was about to speak when his expression suddenly changed. His eyes turned serious as he reminded Lu Zhen in a low voice, “Samir is here.’
Lu Zhen’s heart raced. She immediately looked up and saw a man in a black and white striped suit walking into the hall not far away.
The man was probably in his fifties. He was slightly fat and had a beard around his chin. He didn’t seem used to the suit he was wearing. He swung his arms from time to time and looked uncomfortable.
Samir was an internationally renowned director who sat in the first echelon of chairs. His arrival naturally caused a small commotion. Many people walked forward to talk to Samir. Of course, some people who had nothing to do with the film and television industry did not have the urge to get to know Samir. They just watched from afar.
Samir did not seem to be good at dealing with such social situations. His expression was a little stiff. Soon, a woman in a light-colored dress walked forward and said to the others, “I’m sorry, Mr. Samir is our special guest. He just ended a business event. Please let him rest for a while,”
The woman dismissed those who had come for Samir’s fame and left with him.
After Samir left, Song Jia looked at Lu Zhen and said, “Let’s go.”
Only then did Lu Zhen understand that the appearance of the woman in the light-colored dress was not a coincidence. It was very likely Song Jia’s arrangement.
With this in mind, it was even possible that Song Jia had secretly pushed
Samir to attend today’s banquet. A vague thought appeared in Lu Zhen’s mind: Song Jia’s identity might not be as simple as she thought.
The two of them passed through the corridor and saw an empty wooden platform. Half of the wooden platform was built on the water, and the other half was connected to the garden.
There were all kinds of expensive flowers planted in the garden, and a set of tables and chairs was placed in the center. At this moment, Samir was sitting on a chair, and there were a few plates of exquisite desserts on the table.
Song Jia looked at Lu Zhen and said, “He’s leaving soon. You don’t have much time. Go.”
Song Jia could only help Lu Zhen until here.
Lu Zhen nodded and took a deep breath. After calming down, she walked towards the garden.
Samir was resting on a chair. At this moment, he was indeed a little tired. Fortunately, the host of the banquet was considerate and did not let him continue to interact with the people outside. Those people were too enthusiastic. They were simply the devil of social interaction.
Samir picked up the cup on the wooden table and took a sip of the sweet juice. He thought about his gains from this trip to Country Z..
