Chapter 1698: I Haven't Said Yes Yet

Chu Yao’s breathing became heavier.

“Cancel! Cancel immediately! I want all the flower floats in the city to be canceled.”

“The whole… city?”

Chu Yao asked cautiously, “How many?”

“Not many, just a few dozen.”

“…”

Chu Yao fell silent and hung up the call.

Why does she feel like she’s embarrassing herself?

“Tonight, I’ll just make a brief appearance at the hotel, then leave. I’ve booked a private room at Shengyue Mansion, wait for me and we’ll leave together.”

Nan Jiaojiao nodded, she took back her phone, looked at the photo a few more times, it was really funny, couldn’t help but send it to Bo Yanching to share the laugh.

He quickly replied with a selfie, only the camera was reversed, facing his desk.

“Bored of playing?”

She replied, “No, going to Shengyue Mansion for dinner tonight, are you coming?”

“Old Mo told me, when your side ends, I’ll come pick you up.”

“No, I’m leaving with Chu Yao.”

Bo Yanching took a minute to reply her, “Those two friends of yours…”

Nan Jiaojiao could almost imagine him gritting his teeth, yet looking helpless.

“Tonight I should keep a close eye on you, lest you get led astray by them again.”

Nan Jiaojiao laughed heartily, she jumped onto the sofa to lean back, sent him a string of emojis, then went on to play games.

At the roadshow venue, Mo Tingshen originally planned to take Nan Jiaojiao to the large room with the floor-to-ceiling windows upstairs, but she refused, saying the scene downstairs had a better atmosphere, so Mo Tingshen arranged a third-row seat for her, a spot that could be hidden among the crowds.

It was much more low-key than the front-row seat arranged by Chu Yao.

The seat originally reserved for her was left by Chu Yao, directly facing the stage where Chu Yao stood, which Mo Tingshen ended up occupying.

He always seemed to be doing it on purpose, but there was no evidence.

After the event ended, Mo Tingshen and Chu Yao went into the hotel one after the other, and didn’t stay long before coming out. The crew, including Director Chen and Producer Zhou, were quite pleased, and didn’t stop Chu Yao from leaving, even escorted her to the entrance.

Nan Jiaojiao was waiting in the car, was on her third game, when Chu Yao returned, helped into the car by Sister Mi.

Sister Mi was cursing and muttering all the way, she didn’t get in the car, tasked Nan Jiaojiao to take care of Chu Yao, she had to go back to the hotel.

Nan Jiaojiao agreed.

Before the car door closed, Mo Tingshen suddenly appeared, his hand on the roof, bending down to look inside, pinching Chu Yao’s chin, leaning in to smell the alcohol on her, his face instantly darkened.

“How much did you drink?”

“A few glasses.”

Chu Yao raised her hand showing him a few fingers, “No big deal, not even drunk.”

“Exactly how many glasses?”

“Three!”

Mo Tingshen’s face worsened a notch, wanting to scold her but couldn’t bring himself to, the words stuck in his mouth, his gaze passed over Chu Yao’s shoulder, looking for Nan Jiaojiao inside.

“Sis, you should ride in my car, I’ll take care of her.”

Nan Jiaojiao naturally had no objections, her hand was already on the door handle when a black shadow suddenly lunged at her.

“No way! My darling must stay with me, you stop trying to coax her away.”

Mo Tingshen was helpless, “She’s just a kid, how can she take care of you.”

“Don’t give me that!”

Chu Yao lay back on Nan Jiaojiao, her eyes glaring sideways at him, “Don’t think I don’t know, talking about taking care, your hands are dishonest, if you want to get frisky in the car, I’m not agreeing!”

Mo Tingshen: “…”

His face flushed with embarrassment.

He coughed awkwardly, “What nonsense are you talking about, am I that kind of person?”

His words made even Chu Yao laugh.
