The group of four returned to the office. Lu Shengyao finally accepted the fact that Lu Shijin had gotten married. Lu Shengyao started to harp on his sister-in-law. “Sister-in-law, since it’s our first time meeting each other, how about I treat you to a meal?”He might have changed how he addressed her, but the words remained the same.Tang Ruochu could not stop laughing. “Why are you still not giving up?”“Haha, you’re our Big Brother’s savior! Our whole family thought that he’s gonna be single his whole life. You’re the one that saved him from that misery. No matter what, you have to take me up on my offer!”Lu Shengyao was much more firm in his attitude compared to when he was trying to hit on her.Tang Ruochu could not help stealing a glance at Lu Shijin.This was the first time she had met a member of his family. Although they were biological brothers, their characters were the total opposite. One was calm and composed, while the other was all over the place. One passive, on

In the best private room at Yi He Xuan, Tang Ruochu ordered a lot of dishes, all of which were crazy-expensive.The slaughtered Lu Shengyao was completely unaware and he was still saying cheerfully, "I couldn't tell from Sister-in-law's scrawny figure that you had such a good appetite.""You're over-complimenting me. I'm just following what your brother said, go ahead and order, don't worry about the price. So I'm not going easy on you."Tang Ruochu used her chopsticks to pick up a mouthful of vegetables and sent them into her mouth. She chewed slowly while saying so."You didn't realize that these are all my favorite dishes?"At this moment, Lu Shijin interjected faintly from aside as he passed Tang Ruochu a piece of beef.Lu Shengyao froze. He suddenly leaned over and whispered in Lu Shijin's ear, "Big Brother, are you really falling for Sister-in-law?""What do you think?"Lu Shijin glanced at her calmly. His answer was ambiguous.Lu Shengyao did not care and continued to r

When Tang Ruochu stepped into the office the next day, the shock from the drama the night before had yet to wear off. Many of her colleagues stiffened when they saw her, and they looked at her strangely and with a complicated look in their eyes.Tang Ruochu had already gotten used to this treatment from her colleagues, so she ignored them and made a beeline for her desk.Song Anyi sidled up to her and said huffily, "Tang Ruochu, I'm surprised that you managed to find your way back to the office. Here I was thinking that you were so upset that you were going to commit suicide."Tang Ruochu laughed in spite of herself and said, "Do I look like someone who would take my own life lightly?""No, but it was wrong of you to disappear like that. Do you know how worried I was last night?" Song Anyi said.Song Anyi had searched for her all morning but Tang Ruochu's phone had been switched off. She had only relaxed after the recording was made public."I'm sorry. I'll definitely notify you

Tang Ruochu's eyes hardened and she said icily, "Let me leave you with a warning as well, celebrities shouldn't get on the bad side of reporters because we're always carrying recording devices on us. If you don't watch your words, you might end up suffering the same fate as Gu Ruoruo, do you understand?"Ning Qiaoqiao said scornfully, "I'm not as dumb as Gu Ruoruo.""That may be true, but you're not very smart either. We're all operating in the same industry, so while some others might not know, I'm well aware of how you managed to land the two roles in the movies you're starring in this year."Ning Qiaoqiao visibly deflated and various expressions flitted across her face. She looked a little embarrassed."What kind of nonsense are you talking about?" Ning Qiaoqiao's assistant said and stepped forward when she noticed that the conversion was heading into dangerous territory...."Room 308, Heyuan Hotel, last December. Room 1304, Far East Hotel, this February. Shall I elaborate an

"You're finally here." Ning Qiaoqiao greeted Ji Yinfeng with a smile, her adoration clear in her eyes....Her infatuation with him had only grown over the years."Sorry I was late. Something cropped up earlier," Ji Yinfeng said with a smile that softened his features...."No worries. There's still some time before I have to head off to my next appointment," Ning Qiaoqiao said as she led him to the sofa and poured him a cup of water. "May I know why you're looking for me?"..."I'd like to ask you a favor," Ji Yinfeng said with a nod. "Ruoruo would like to make a comeback in the entertainment industry. I'm sure you're aware of her situation as well, so I'd like to ask you to help her out."...There was a slight pause before she asked with a frown, "Isn't she pregnant? Why isn't she staying at home to rest?""Sigh, as you know, there's some enmity between Ruoruo and Ruochu. Ruoruo doesn't want to take this lying down, and now that she's carrying my child, I can't turn her re
