Chapter 982: Rejecting Jin Yan

The moment the door was pushed open, Zhao Chong stood up and turned around to look at the person. He smiled and said, “They’re here!”

Xia Ning looked over as well and was surprised to see him. Since he was here, why didn’t he leave with her?

Jin Yan walked in and apologized to Zhao Chong,””I’m sorry, President Zhao, I’m late. ” He glanced at the people inside and was surprised to see Xia Ning.”Xiao Ke, why are you here?!”

Xia Ning shrugged helplessly and said,”I didn’t know you’d be here when director Zhao invited me!”

Jin Yan looked at Zhao Chong and said with a smile,””President Zhao, what are you doing? you know that ke and I are in the same crew, but you still invited us separately. If I had known, I would have brought her along.”

“Isn’t this to show caution? It’s also a surprise for you. ” Zhao Chong patted Jin Yan’s shoulder.”Alright, you must be tired after a busy day. Sit down and have a cup of tea. The dishes will be served soon.” Without waiting for Jin Yan’s reply, he went out to call the waiter.

Jin Yan sat in an empty seat and looked at Xia Ning. He sighed and said,””That’s how he is, he does everything to his own pleasure. ”

Xia Ning smiled and did not say anything. She was not familiar with Zhao Chong.

Lu Chuan had met Jin Yan before, so he was not reserved and took the initiative to talk to him.”King Jin, before you shoot a movie next time, can you consider me and see if there are any roles in your movie that are suitable for me?”

“Mr. Lu, you must be joking. You’re the male lead now. I’m just afraid that you’ll look down on my small movie.” Jin Yan said with a smile.

“What are you saying? if our Best Actress Xia can act in it, why wouldn’t I? I’m not as famous as her. If I keep acting in TV dramas, my acting career will be too narrow, so I can only rely on the two of you to help me.” Lu Chuan cupped his hands and said with a smile.

Looking at Lu Chuan’s serious expression, Xia Ning was a little speechless.”Acting in a movie doesn’t earn much money, unlike your TV series, which costs hundreds of thousands per episode.”

“You’re talking about you!” Lu Chuan glared at Xia Ning.”Why do you think director li is looking for me? isn’t it because he thinks I’m cheap?”

“Then how much are you worth to director li?”

“I …” Lu Chuan was about to speak when he saw Xia Ning’s playful expression. He instantly understood that this was her trick. He was a little speechless.”Can you not set me up?” I’m not a commodity, I’m not selling!”

“Haha …” The room was filled with laughter. Even Lu Chuan himself was laughing.

Not long after, Zhao Chong returned with the dishes. He closed the door after the dishes were served.

Zhao Chong stood up and raised his glass to Xia Ning.”Chairman su, it’s my honor that you’re able to take the time out of your busy schedule to come and give me some face. I’ll toast you with this glass of wine. Cheers!” After saying that, he drank it directly and then turned the cup over to show his sincerity.

Xia Ning smiled and raised her glass.”You’re too kind, President Zhao. You’re Jin Yan’s friend. You don’t have to be so polite with me.” She was about to drink when a hand stopped her.

“Xiao Ke, let me help you drink.” Jin Yan looked at Xia Ning and said in a low voice.

“Jin Yan, when have you ever been such a gentleman?” Zhao Chong teased.”You’re really special to director su.”

Lu Chuan glanced at Jin Yan, his eyebrows twitching. He did not say anything.

Jin Yan looked at Zhao Chong helplessly.”What are you talking about? ke’s arm was injured some time ago. She can’t drink.” As soon as he finished speaking, his expression changed slightly, because his hand that was going to take the glass was taken away.

Xia Ning stood up with a glass of wine in her hand and said to Zhao Chong,””Of course I have to return the toast, President Zhao.” She then raised her head and finished the wine. She also turned the glass upside down, leaving not a single drop of wine behind!
