Qiao Lian hadn’t gotten very far when a car came recklessly driving straight at her.

She quickly halted as the car came to a screeching stop right in front of her.

Qiao Lian glared at the vehicle furiously.

This sort of high speed driving in a filming location could easily kill someone.

Furthermore, there were separate roads for vehicles and pedestrians at the location, but this car had been driving on the pedestrian zone. That was completely unreasonable.

However, because she was in a hurry, Qiao Lian did not wish to pursue the matter. Instead, she went around the car and continued walking towards Song Yuanxi’s resting room.

Just as she was going around the car, the driver seat door was suddenly flung open.

She paused and looked up. Lo and behold, it was Sun Linan himself getting out of the car! He looked elated and waved at Qiao Lian. “Qiao Lian! It’s really you! I thought I had recognized from the back, so I rushed over here. Hahaha! I didn’t think I’d run into you coming here to explore the filming location! It must be fate.”

Qiao Lian paused.

How was it that Sun Tzi was everywhere?

She grimaced, but nodded at Sun Linan. “Yes, it’s fate.”

Having said that, she continued walking.

However, Sun Linan reached out and grabbed her arm. “Qiao Lian, why haven’t you been going to work these days? I haven’t been able to get you at the office.”

Qiao Lian paused.

She was desperate to hear what Shen Liangchuan and Song Yuanxi were discussing and had no time to indulge in idle chatting with Sun Linan.

She sighed and explained, “Sun Tzi, I have an urgent matter to take care of now, we’ll have to talk another day.”

As she was about to move, Sun Linan reached out to stop her once again. He said in an extremely hurt tone, “Qiao Lian, tell me, how many times has it been that you’ve said you have something important when we run into each other? Why is it that you’re so busy every time you see me? Isn’t talking to me also important?”

His expression was no different from an abandoned wife’s.

Qiao Lian said helplessly, “I really do have something to attend to. Sun Tzi, you—”

“Are you here to interview someone? Leave it to me. Who would you like to interview? Just tell me, I’ll make sure the person cooperates.”

Qiao Lian paused.

“How about this? Qiao Lian, Lian Lian, we said we’d have a meal together, but how many times have you rejected me? I think we better decide on a date, rather than leave it to chance. Let’s go for dinner now.”

Qiao Lian paused.

She looked into the distance anxiously and saw that Shen Liangchuan’s car was already parked next to the resting room.

Then, she saw him getting out of the car.

From this distance, she wasn’t able to see his expression but she knew that it would be expressionless, as usual.

Had Shen Liangchuan come over to ask her about the bank transaction?

But… would Song Yuanxi admit it?

Qiao Lian frowned. She saw Shen Liangchuan entering the resting room. Shortly after this, the door closed behind him and she could no longer see what was going on.

Qiao Lian stamped her foot with frustration. Sun Linan took a step towards her and persisted, “Qiao Lian, do you agree?”

“Agree my ass!,” thought Qiao Lian.

She was now extremely angry and glowered as she said, “Sun Linan! I really have business to attend to, so would you stop getting in my way?”

Very hurt, Sun Linan retorted, “But I really do miss you.”

At this point, he paused and said, “Oh, right! Second Brother and the rest are coming to Beijing for a holiday next tuesday, would you like to join us?”

The moment he mentioned “Second Brother,” Qiao Lian’s body immediately froze.
