Qin Zhao looked through the wardrobe and changed into casual clothes. She said, "Of course I'm going to sneak into someone's house."
"Whose house are you going to sneak into?"
"The male lead's house. That's why I'm here."
After listening to Director Sun's account, Ye Chenxi couldn't stop smiling. "Is it confirmed? 'The Wilderness' can start internal testing?"
"The Wilderness" was a game that Legend Games had been developing for four years. Due to some technical issues, it still wasn't completed this year.
This game caught on to this year's trends. If it could launch by the end of the year, it would definitely make a lot of money. Therefore, most of the company's core employees had joined in the production of this project.
If they couldn't complete it on time, forget about making money, the company would lose billions due to breaching the contract signed with the investors.
Therefore, when Ye Chenxi heard the news that the game's production was completed, he was so happy.
"Yes, Chairman Ye. We couldn't wait to tell you the news as soon as we finished it."
"Great, great! Wait for me, I'll be back at the company right away. Everyone can order whatever they want to eat, it's my treat!" Ye Chenxi said excitedly.
When he returned to the private room, the smile still lingered on Ye Chenxi's face. He looked at Nan Yue, who was quietly drinking plum wine, and pretended to feel guilty. "Nan Yue, something came up at my company, I have to rush back to deal with it immediately, I can't have dinner with you, I'm sorry."
Nan Yue looked up and met his gaze, making Ye Chenxi feel a little guilty.
The air was quiet for a few seconds before Nan Yue showed a smile as gentle as the spring breeze. "Of course the company is more important, you go ahead."
Ye Chenxi was blinded by Nan Yue's smile, thinking she was not angry at all, and didn't notice the implication behind her words was that the company was more important than her.
He walked over to Nan Yue's side, kissed the back of her hand, and praised, "Nan Yue, you're so nice."
Then he left with a smile on his face.
Right after Ye Chenxi drove away, the taxi Qin Zhao took arrived at the Japanese restaurant.
She walked to the entrance of the private room Nan Yue was in, and happened to hear the sound of a wine glass shattering inside.
This young lady had quite a temper.
System 502 saw that Qin Zhao didn't seem to have the intention to enter the private room, and asked, "Host, aren't you going to comfort her?"
Qin Zhao rolled her eyes. "I think your system has a hollow brain. If I enter the private room now, am I going to bear Nan Yue's anger or show that I'm a stalker?"
System 502: "..."
Qin Zhao went outside the restaurant and lit a cigarette.
In fact, she didn't know how to smoke at all, the kind that would cough for ten minutes after one puff.
If she didn't do something, just standing outside like this would look very strange.
After about ten minutes, Qin Zhao saw Nan Yue walking out from the corner of her eye.
Perhaps because she had vented her anger, she looked very calm, as if nothing had happened.
Only Qin Zhao, who had witnessed the whole thing, knew how disappointed and even angry Nan Yue was at this moment.
A couple finally managed to arrange a date, but the boyfriend left halfway, leaving the girlfriend alone facing the unfinished food. Just thinking about it made one angry!
When Nan Yue walked out of the store, she saw Qin Zhao throwing away her cigarette butt. She didn't want Qin Zhao to see her distressed appearance, and wanted to leave quickly.
But Qin Zhao turned her head, and their eyes met directly. She had no choice but to put on a smile and greet Qin Zhao, "What a coincidence, you're eating here too?"
Qin Zhao walked up to her and nodded, "But my friend had something to do and left halfway through the meal. I felt eating alone was boring so I came out for a smoke and some fresh air. What about you, why are you alone?"
When Nan Yue heard the first half of Qin Zhao's words, she was surprised that their situations were so similar. But when asked about herself, she didn't want to admit being stood up.
So she lied, "I met a client here to discuss a contract, but something came up and he didn't show up. I was just about to leave."
Qin Zhao didn't expose her lie and smiled, "In that case, you haven't eaten either. Why don't we find a place to have dinner together?"
Looking at Qin Zhao's smile as warm as the sun, the distress in Nan Yue's heart miraculously disappeared. She nodded in agreement with her own desires.
Qin Zhao naturally held Nan Yue's wrist. The delicate and soft skin rubbed against each other, giving Nan Yue a strange feeling.
But she didn't feel disgusted, so she didn't jerk her hand away.
The two didn't deliberately look for a restaurant, but strolled through the commercial street while looking around. When they saw a store they liked, they would walk in.
They chose a barbecue restaurant.
They took a seat by the window and randomly ordered some beef, mutton, chicken and vegetables.
"Want to get a bottle of sparkling wine to cleanse the palate?" Qin Zhao suggested.
Nan Yue: "I don't have a great alcohol tolerance, I might get drunk..."
"Sparkling wine has a very low alcohol content, it's a bit difficult to get drunk. And don't worry, even if you do get drunk, I'll take responsibility to send you home safely."
"Okay, let's order according to what you said."
This restaurant was very efficient. In less than fifteen minutes, the food and drinks were all served.
As a young lady, Nan Yue had never grilled meat by herself before. So Qin Zhao took over the grilling.
Nan Yue thought it was fun and occasionally imitated Qin Zhao, although most of the time she just ate.
After grilling a piece of lamb, Qin Zhao put it in her mouth and her expression instantly changed.
Nan Yue noticed her look and asked caringly, "What's wrong, does it taste bad?"
Qin Zhao quickly grabbed the glass of wine beside her and poured it into her mouth regardless, after drinking a glass, her mouth finally felt better. She replied, "Too spicy, I guess my butt will suffer tomorrow."
After speaking, she realized Nan Yue's lips were slightly parted as she looked at her meaningfully.
Qin Zhao thought there was something on her face and touched around, but there was nothing. So she asked, "Nan Yue, why are you looking at me like that?"
Nan Yue pointed at the wine glass and said hesitantly, "What you just picked up... was my wine glass."
Qin Zhao took a closer look at the wine glass and found there was still a little lipstick stuck to the rim. Not only did she use Nan Yue's glass, she indirectly kissed Nan Yue.
Qin Zhao actually felt a little awkward too, but tried to pretend to be indifferent and said casually, "What's the big deal, we're friends, just sharing a glass, no big deal."
Nan Yue: "But... saliva."
Qin Zhao chuckled, trying to conceal her embarrassment with laughter, "Of course I don't mind you, or are you... disgusted by me?"
Nan Yue keenly noticed Qin Zhao's earlobes had turned red, under the light they looked like translucent red gemstones.
She strangely felt Qin Zhao was cute, and the previous discomfort instantly disappeared without a trace. She replied, "Of course not, like you said, we're friends."
At this moment, it seemed they had truly become friends.
The two smiled at each other, but at this time, a strange voice rang out, "Excuse me, are you the eldest daughter of the Qin family in Mingcun Village?"
Qin Zhao looked through the wardrobe and changed into casual clothes. She said, "Of course I'm going to sneak into someone's house."
"Whose house are you going to sneak into?"
"The male lead's house. That's why I'm here."
