Qin Zhiyou immediately grabbed his phone to check the caller ID. Seeing it was He Weiyou, he instantly lost interest.
He stood up with the phone in his hand. His aunt, Qin Weijia, who was enthusiastically talking next to him, was even more unhappy when she saw him leaving, “What, don’t you like to hear what your elders have to say anymore?”
Qin Zhiyou tipped his chin up, with a smirk, “I’m going to the men’s room. Aunt, are you coming with me?”
Qin Weijia didn’t expect Qin Zhiyou to have such a shameless retort, her face suddenly turned gloomy, her expression very unpleasant.
Qin Zhiyou couldn’t be bothered by her. He stride towards the door, his smiling face instantly fading. He called over Secretary Wang, “Make a call to Auntie Hao and ask if the lady has returned.”
Secretary Wang nodded and immediately made a call, “Has madam not returned yet? Did she mention where she went? When will she be back?”
On the other end of the line, Auntie Hao knew nothing. Qin Zhiyou pressed his lips together for a while before saying, “Then, ask Lulu.”
At this time, even Lulu’s gatekeeper was about to get off work, and naturally no one answered. Qin Zhiyou’s lips tightened even more. He called Lu Weixi again, but her phone was off. He didn’t have Xue Feifei’s contact information. After thinking for a long time, he asked Secretary Wang again, “Don’t you have her assistant’s WeChat? Ask her if she’s still working overtime.”
Secretary Wang hadn’t even asked yet and had clicked onto Xiaochen’s friends circle.
No need to ask now. “Orange Zhuqi’s” friends circle showed she and her friends were waiting for a premiere at Hanhai Cinema half an hour ago. Lu Weixi was not in the photos.
If she was not at work and hadn’t returned home, where had she gone? Just as Qin Zhiyou was getting anxious, He Weiyou called again. He frowned and picked up, intending to snap at him, but the first thing He Weiyou said was, “Yu Sixing got slapped by a woman at STAR.”
Qin Zhiyou frowned deeper. It was so common for Yu Sixing to be slapped by a woman. He had so many girlfriends.
Getting ready to hang up, He Weiyou followed up with, “It was your wife’s friend who slapped him! Your wife is also there.”
Half an hour ago.
At the bar in Yan City’s STAR Entertainment Centre, Lu Weixi held a glass of liquor. The music on the stage kept playing. She squinted her eyes.
But Xue Feifei beside her drank all the liquor in her glass in one breath, slamming the glass on the bar top, “Damn it. Didn’t I get a casting call last week? I’ve been eyeing that drama and done all the background research. I fought so hard to arrive at the final round only for Yu Sixing to replace me with a girl who didn’t even audition with one call. OK, his dad is the investor. He can replace whoever he wants. And this bastard has the audacity to brag about it in front of me. He deliberately dragged me all the way to the final round, only to cut me out! Isn’t he just being an asshole? All because I kicked him once!”
Xue Feifei poured herself another drink and filled up Lu Weixi’s glass. Just as Lu Weixi was about to refuse, Xue Feifei glared at her, “Are you not my friend? I pour you a drink and you refuse? You must drink! My assistant is here, if you get drunk, she’ll take you home. Tonight, we won’t go home sober!”
Lu Weixi just smiled without drinking, until Xue Feifei added, “Qin Zhiyou’s friend Yu Sixing is no good. Qin Zhiyou himself is even worse! He treated you like that last week, and he has the nerve to find another woman now. If I were you, I’d beat the hell out of him.”
Lu Weixi’s smile faded slightly but she didn’t say anything. She picked up her glass and took a sip of the liquor..
