Qiao Anlu suddenly burst into laughter, even though her laugh was utterly unrestrained, it was incredibly captivating!
Beside her, Xiao Kui lowered her head and gave Ada a pleading look. Being this happy, it surely can’t be anything good!
Qiao Anlu reached out and draped her arm over Shen Congling’s shoulder. She was already tall, and now completely encircled Shen Congling in her embrace, asking Ji Niandong, "Anyway, we’re all going to YT International Hotel later, mind if your assistant rides with me?"
Ji Niandong didn’t mind, but, "This girl always speaks without thinking, I’m afraid she’ll..."
"Don’t worry, I like her spunk!" Qiao Anlu patted Shen Congling’s shoulder, "First go help tidy up, then come to my car. I’ll teach you how to handle Lin Ji Yang, after all, I’ve worked with him a few times and am quite familiar!"
"Really!" Shen Congling’s every cell was screaming with excitement.
Qiao Anlu nodded, "Hurry up and go pack!"
"Okay, Sister Lu!" She turned and, as if invigorated, went to help Lazy Cat.
Ji Niandong clicked her tongue, "Then I’ll trouble Sister Lu to take care of her a bit more! I’ll go change my clothes first!"
As she turned and left, Ada asked, "What are you up to now?"
"Back when I first started, Lin Ji Yang took advantage of me. For a guy like him, only a little flirt can deal with him. Sister Ada, don’t interfere!" She turned her head and cheerfully walked away.
"Take it easy, or even I can’t help you!" Ada advised behind her.
Qiao Anlu pretended not to hear!
Afternoon, YT International Hotel.
The lavish hotel was bustling with excitement, everyone radiating with the joy of victory.
People were engaged in lively conversations, enjoying good food and drinks.
Ji Niandong generally didn’t like such lively occasions. After sitting in the corner for a while, she saw Lin Ji Yang being ushered in.
He and Qiao Anlu were the stars of the event, naturally not missing out, especially with the company specially arranging a Q&A session.
Everyone surrounded Lin Ji Yang and Qiao Anlu, and they cooperated seamlessly, portraying an on-screen couple.
Ji Niandong didn’t find herself bored in the corner, watching her phone, she discovered real-time news had been released. It was all about the wrap-up of ’Choked Love’, complete with their group photo upon conclusion.
Just as she sipped her tea, Zhou Yiqing, wearing a flowing green dress that exuded ethereal elegance, approached her, "Tongtong, here you are? I’ve been looking for you for ages!"
Meeting a familiar face made her a bit more comfortable, Ji Niandong shifted to let her sit beside her and asked, "Why haven’t you contacted me in so long?"
"Been so busy lately, you have no idea. Since I had a minor role in this movie, Sister Judy finally considers me somebody. I’ve been happily busy with my packed schedule!"
Her face radiated with an irresistible smile, looking full of life.
"That’s wonderful! Sister Judy is an incredible agent, you’ll surely thrive under her guidance!" She genuinely felt happy for her friend.
"Sister Judy even mentioned you recently. I heard you’re back in the entertainment industry, she told me to remind you to respect your own choices!"
Respect your own choices!
Ji Niandong of course understood what she meant, having previously entered the entertainment industry so haphazardly without making the most of it. Now that she’s returning by choice, she has to take responsibility!
Unexpectedly, Judy was still considerate of her, she felt both guilty and touched.
After just a few exchanges, she saw someone she didn’t want to see walking over, so Ji Niandong stood up and said, "I’ll go chat with Sister Ada for a bit, then come back to find you!"
She hurriedly left, leaving Zhou Yiqing without a chance to call her back.
From afar, Shen Congjun stood still, watching her departing figure, his face darkening.
