He Wanyi also came to Room 1508. As soon as she walked into the room, Tang Xi took her arm and looked at her with a meaningful smile. “Sister Wanyi, why did you stay alone at the show field? Were you waiting for Chu Ling?”

He Wanyi looked at her in surprise and asked, “How did you know I was there alone?”

Tang Xi chuckled, took out her cell phone and showed her the most searched hashtag list. “Someone photographed you hugging a man! Although his face can’t be seen, I surely know who he is.” Tang Xi said and winked at He Wanyi. Her eyes had a sly gleam. “Sister Wanyi, when did you start seeing Chu Ling?”

She didn’t even know they knew each other. Why would Sister Wanyi stay so late just to wait for Chu Ling and Chu Ling even hugged her?

He Wanyi didn’t expect that she would shoot herself in the foot! God, now how could she explain this matter?!

Just then, Chu Ling also came in. He Wanyi frowned and was about to ask him why he was here, when Tang Xi said, “It’s The Queen’s celebration party, so I called him here, and Lu Li and Sister Wen Ning. They will be coming soon.” Then she asked He Wanyi, “Sister Wanyi, you haven’t told me how you two came to know each other!”

He Wanyi gave her a helpless smile. “Do you know you look like a paparazzi right now? Where is your noble and proud manner? I want to see that noble and proud Miss Xiao Rou. I want to see that queen on the stage!”

“Well, they are not available right now. Now it’s Paparazzi Xiao.” Tang Xi chuckled and beckoned Li Manyan over. The three of them chatted happily and the men chatted.

Li Manyan kept looking at her cell phone absent-mindedly. Tang Xi raised her eyebrows and looked at her. “When will Jin Han come here?”

Li Manyan put away her cell phone. “He said he would come here soon.” Then she looked at He Wanyi, picked up a glass of wine and said carefully, “Miss Wanyi, I’m a big fan of you. May I propose a toast to you?”

Tang Xi smiled and nudged He Wanyi. “Wow, Sister Wanyi, you’re awesome. Even Manyan is your fan.”

He Wanyi laughed and clinked glasses with Li Manyan. “Nice to meet you.”

Speaking with her idol, Li Manyan blushed in excitement. Tang Xi gave a helpless smile. Maybe she was too calm the first time she met He Wanyi...

Perhaps that was because she was not He Wanyi’s fan.

With Li Manyan here, Tang Xi didn’t ask He Wanyi about her relationship with Chu Ling anymore. She couldn’t leak He Wanyi’s privacy...

They chatted casually, and Tang Xi egged on He Wanyi to sing a Karaoke. As an actress, He Wanyi was also good at singing. She often sang the theme songs of the movies she starred. So being egged on to sing a song by Tang Xi, she immediately agreed and selected a classic song.

Her voice was soft and refreshing, and the songs she selected suit her well, so as soon as she began to sing everyone stopped talking and listened to her.

Tang Xi had to admit that He Wanyi was a versatile actress indeed.

The others put down the glass and listened to her singing attentively. Chu Ling raised her eyebrows and looked at He Wanyi who was sitting on the high stool and singing, and he smiled. Then he heard Ning Yan say, “Is she missing a man?”

“I haven’t heard her sing this song in such a long time.” He Wanzhou raised his eyebrows and looked at his sister. “But she sings very nicely. Although she doesn’t sing as well as the original singer of the song, her performance is full of sentiment. My sister is really talented.”

Qiao Liang raised his eyebrows and poured himself a glass of wine. Then he turned his eyes to Tang Xi who was sipping the wine. He came up to and sat beside her. Tang Xi looked at him with a sweet smile. “Sister Wanyi is really good at singing. Especially when she sings this song, I feel as if watching a romance movie.”

Qiao Liang grabbed the wine glass from her and drank up the wine. He then handed her a bottle of juice. “Drink this.”

Tang Xi, “...” She looked at the juice speechlessly and said unhappily, “But it’s The Queen’s celebration party today.”

“Huh?” Qiao Liang took a look at her. “So?”

The corner of her eyes twitched and she hurriedly shook her head. “Nothing. I mean I’ll drink the juice.”

Qiao Liang smiled and rubbed at her hair gently. “Good girl.”

Tang Xi smirked but Qiao Liang just gazed at her and didn’t leave. Seeing this scene, He Wanzhou shouted, “Hey, Qiao Liang, a man should dote on his girlfriend, but you treat your girlfriend like your daughter! How can you force her, an adult, to drink juice?”

Xiao Jing knew his sister shouldn’t drink wine, so he immediately said, “What are you talking about? My sister is still a high school student!”

Tang Xi, “...” Why don’t you just shut up, Jing?

Qiao Liang cast a casual glance at He Wanzhou and raised his eyebrows. “You don’t understand.”

“What? I don’t understand? What do you mean?!” He Wanzhou immediately came up to Qiao Liang and sat beside him. “Explain!”

“You don’t understand because you don’t have the conditions to understand.” Qiao Liang glanced at him expressionlessly, and then handed a peeled apple to Tang Xi.

Tang Xi took a bite of the apple and gave Qiao Liang a questioning look. He Wanzhou also frowned and asked him. “What do you mean?”

“I mean, you don’t even have a girlfriend.” Qiao Liang took a look at He Wanzhou and his eyes were full of disdain.

He Wanzhou scowled and Tang Xi looked at Qiao Liang and laughed. “I never knew you could be so sharp-tongued!”

He Wanzhou glared at him. “Let’s wait and see!”

He had a girlfriend, many girlfriends!

Qiao Liang shrugged, raised his glass at He Wanzhou and took a sip of the wine. Ning Yan looked at He Wanzhou and said helplessly. “Take it easy. Bro, come and join us. We are single too. Don’t give him any chances to hurt you again.”
