Chapter 156: Chapter 153: Her Charm, He Can’t Be Calm
After that sentence fell, silence enveloped the other end of the phone instantly.
Faintly, it seemed only their breathing remained
After an indeterminate length of time, Wen Xian slowly said:
“I miss you everywhere.”
She said it very seriously, with utmost sincerity.
With a slight clench of his teeth, the contour of his jawline became even more pronounced and clear.
Once again, Captain Lu’s patience was being stretched to its limits.
How could he be blamed for this?
Who would have thought that she, who stood solemnly on the podium reciting British love poems with sincerity and depth, would act in private?
Yet, she only showed this side of herself to him alone.
Such flirtation, too, was reserved only for him.
For Wen Xian, she was determined to use all her feminine wiles to ensure that he would never find peace when he wasn’t with her.
After leaving the program, Wen Xian immediately purchased a ticket to Qinghai for the next day, as if she couldn’t wait even a day, not a minute or second more.
That evening, Cheng Dongyuan called her to say that the production crew wanted to buy her a plane ticket and needed some related information.
He would not have contacted her for such a trivial matter naturally, there must be an ulterior motive.
But Wen Xian responded directly, “No need, I’m going to Qinghai a day ahead of the crew, so I won’t be traveling with you. We’ll meet up in Qinghai.”
After saying this, she was about to hang up the phone.
Cheng Dongyuan suddenly called out to her and after a rare moment of hesitation, he eventually asked, “Wen Xian, the ‘Lu’ you mentioned on the show today, who is that? Do I know him?”
Upon hearing this, Wen Xian froze for a moment, feeling that something was off, and asked, “Why do you say that?”
Cheng Dongyuan simply replied, “Check your Weibo.”
Confused, Wen Xian looked at her phone and found that there were several missed calls from Huo Qi, but she didn’t have time to check them. She immediately logged onto Weibo.
However, when she saw the content of the “trending” Weibo post, she fell silent.
The fact that she had publicly admitted to having a romantic interest indeed exploded online, but that wasn’t the main point. The focus was the content of the “trending” topic:
[Uncovering Wen Xian’s mysterious boyfriend, the most likely candidate is him—Luis! (Luis) Chinese name Cheng Dongyuan, a graduate of a prestigious foreign university, Wen Xian’s ex-boyfriend!]
Wen Xian twitched slightly at the corner of her eyes, then clicked on the post, which read with seeming authority:
[Why do we speculate that this mysterious “Lu” is him? Not only does Cheng Dongyuan’s English name start with Lu, but he is also a golden producer in the film industry, with all his movie projects being very valuable and reflecting some of the realities of society, consistent with the ‘hero’ Wen Xian mentioned who works without seeking fame or recognition behind the scenes!]
Moreover, and more importantly, there are rumors that Wen Xian accepted a script to film in Qinghai in private, and the producer is none other than Cheng Dongyuan. It seems that after all the twists and turns, they are destined to be together again…!]
Once a prominent entertainment blogger published this post, it caused quite a stir and quickly climbed onto the hot search list.
Wen Xian finally understood what Cheng Dongyuan meant after seeing this scene.
Even though everyone was led astray by surprise, Cheng Dongyuan knew better than anyone that he was not the person being discussed.
That complex taste washed over her heart, nostalgic, yet bitter.
Wen Xian fell silent and finally replied slowly, “You know him, but Dongyuan, please keep this secret for me…”
Cheng Dongyuan blurted out, “It’s that so-called bodyguard, isn’t it.”
