Chapter 794 -795: Spilled Vinegar Jar
Yet, Xia Yangyang was smiling, especially in front of Gu Qi Chen.
If she were to confront Xia Yangyang, it might damage her own image.
Reluctantly, Lin Yuanyuan handed her press pass from her pocket to Xia Yangyang: “I’ve been looking for you because you’re careless, luckily I found it, otherwise it would have caused a lot of trouble.”
Xia Yangyang took her press pass, her eyes narrowing slightly: “Thank you, Director.”
When she looked up, Gu Qi Chen’s curious eyes fell on her.
Gu Qi Chen spoke up, “Ms. Xia, how did you get in without your press pass?”
Xia Yangyang smiled, “Well, I ran into a friend, and he brought me in.”
Xia Yangyang didn’t want to lie to Gu Qi Chen, plus the news would come out tomorrow and Gu Qi Chen would definitely know.
From Xia Yangyang’s understanding of Gu Qi Chen, this vinegar jar was definitely going to be tipped over.
So it’s better to confess frankly.
The smile on Gu Qi Chen’s face seemed to deepen.
Gu Qi Chen spoke up, “Ms. Xia’s friend, couldn’t be Mr. Chen, could it?”
Xia Yangyang could feel the chill emanating from Gu Qi Chen’s smile.
But she could only tough it out and say, “President Gu is insightful.”
The aura around Gu Qi Chen swiftly turned icy.
A dangerous glint flashed in his eyes.
Meanwhile, Lin Yuanyuan, who was standing by, wished she could cut Xia Yangyang into a million pieces.
It had taken her so much effort to find a chance to talk to Gu Qi Chen alone.
Yet Xia Yangyang deliberately ruined it.
And what on earth were these two doing now?
It was clear they were flirting.
Lin Yuanyuan intentionally moved closer to Gu Qi Chen: “President Gu, about the promotional video, I think we need to discuss it further. Let’s go over there and talk.”
It had taken Lin Yuanyuan a great deal of effort to arrange herself and Gu Qi Chen together.
She had been planning to use this opportunity to get closer to Gu Qi Chen.
She certainly couldn’t let Xia Yangyang ruin it.
Xia Yangyang noticed that Gu Qi Chen’s demeanor had changed and instinctively thought, “I shouldn’t stay here any longer.”
Xia Yangyang put on an understanding face: “President Gu, Director, I’ll be going first.”
Having retrieved her press pass, Xia Yangyang was ready to make a run for it.
But she was immediately grabbed by Gu Qi Chen by the arm.
She was led by him to the corridor of the safety exit right in front of Lin Yuanyuan.
Lin YuanYuan was left behind, stomping her feet in anger.
Finally, they stopped in a deserted corridor.
Xia Yangyang sighed, “Hey, this is going to cause me trouble.”
Only then did Gu Qi Chen turn around and say, “Why didn’t you call me when you couldn’t get in without your press pass?”
Xia Yangyang hurriedly explained, “I didn’t have time yet, did I?”
Xia Yangyang’s explanation had no persuasive power to Gu Qi Chen.
“You don’t seem to mind the scandal with Chen Yu, but when you encounter me, you act as if I’m a dangerous beast, Xia Yangyang, tell me, what are you up to?”
Xia Yangyang was cornered by Gu Qi Chen, her back pressed against the wall.
She patiently said, “I really didn’t have time to call you. When I was hesitating, Chen Yu suddenly appeared and dragged me onto the red carpet. What could I do? I was forced into it. Please, stop being jealous.”
Xia Yangyang decided to shift all the blame onto Chen Yu.
Gu Qi Chen propped one hand against the wall, looking down at Xia Yangyang with a high-handed gaze.
He didn’t seem to be acting.
Gu Qi Chen’s tone was full of dissatisfaction, “What did that flashy peacock say to you?”
