"Come on, we’re old flames after all. Even if you’re not in the best mood, you should at least think about our past relationship."
"Who’s old flames?" A voice suddenly interrupted the two from outside.
"Who’s out there?" Li Yun’er turned around in annoyance, and saw a head peeking from the doorway.
Li Yun’er was extremely beautiful to begin with, and her proud demeanor instantly dazzled Mu Chen. He straightened his clothes and walked into the ward with an air of importance, naturally seizing the opportunity to chat with the beauty.
"Hi, beautiful! You’re Li Yun’er, right? I’ve seen you on TV. You look even more stunning in person."
Li Yun’er ignored him, assuming he was just another playboy, and turned to Ouyang Hao, saying, "I heard your agent got you a role in a TV drama. It just so happens that the director of that drama also contacted me."
"So?" Ouyang Hao raised an eyebrow.
"So, barring any surprises, we’ll be co-stars for the next few months."
"You’re a model. Why aren’t you sticking to the runway instead of messing around in the film industry?"
"What do you mean by ’messing around’? You’re just a singer. If you can switch to acting, why can’t I? Anyway, I’m here to inform you, and to see if you’re crippled or not." She said, knocking on Ouyang Hao’s casted leg with her finger, "I heard the entire crew delayed filming because they’re waiting for their leading man. You better not disappoint. Making me wait wouldn’t be very nice."
To which Ouyang Hao responded, "If you’re in that drama, I’m quitting."
"You dare!" Li Yun’er suddenly realized her reaction was too strong. She calmed herself and said, "Fine, I have another appointment later. I’ll be going now. But, Ouyang Hao, I have to remind you, whether you want to act in this drama or not, you have to. Otherwise, you’re not getting away with it."
With that, Li Yun’er turned and left without a trace, leaving the two men in the ward petrified.
Mu Chen’s gaze followed Li Yun’er’s figure for a long time before he retracted his eyes and leaned in toward Ouyang Hao with a sly look, "I bet Li Yun’er still has feelings for you."
"What feelings? I have nothing to do with that woman, okay?"
"Wasn’t she your ex-girlfriend? How’s that not related?"
"Didn’t I tell you, we were just pretending to be a couple back then?"
"Maybe she thought the act was real?" Mu Chen smirked.
Ouyang Hao’s expression changed slightly before he composed himself, "Nothing like that happened. Don’t guess wildly."
"I’m not guessing wildly. My eyes are sharp."
"Yes, yes, your eyes are sharp. You’re Sun Wukong with fiery eyes and golden pupils." Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by novel•fire.net
"Those eyes are for spotting monsters. I’m saying she has feelings for you based on evidence. Back when you asked her to pretend to be your girlfriend, she agreed without a word. When you two ’broke up’, it was clean. With her current fame, there must be many famous directors reaching out to her. Yet she chose to act with you. And the way she looked at you just now, it’s clear she likes you."
"Okay, fine. You’re experienced and your words make sense."
"Of course. Who am I? I’m the love expert."
"Love expert?" Ouyang Hao scoffed, "Have you ever had a real relationship?"
Exposed by Ouyang Hao, Mu Chen’s face turned a bit sheepish, "Fine, fine, I lose. You’re the love sage who has had genuine relationships."
