She looked around her and noticed a familiar figure coming out of the shadows of a dark lane and running toward her.
“It’s you…” Lu Zhaoyang inhaled sharply, surprised to see the man.
She looked at him and felt more at ease when she noticed he was dressed lightly. “Why are you still dressed like that? You’re lucky it’s not cold today.”
“But I changed my shoes.” Lu Bai reached her side and looked at her intently. “I’ve been trying to meet you. I’m still figuring out the surveillance system at your place, so it has to be somewhere else.”
Lu Zhaoyang realized how exposed he was then and immediately dragged him by the arm to hide behind a brick pillar by the road. Her joy of seeing him was quickly replaced with concern.
“Isn’t it dangerous for you to come out now? Chen… Huo Chen is probably still looking for you.”
“Even if he found me, I’m not afraid. Don’t worry, I am careful. You, on the other hand, look like you’re troubled by something.”
Lu Zhaoyang looked back at him in surprise. Was it so obvious?
She forced a smile on her face and said, “It’s just something at work. You’re quite bold to come out here in the open, why did you not just stay indoors?”
“I came out here to see you and also to look for Wen He.”
“…”
It seemed that he was unaware that Huo Chen had captured Wen He. The woman must have also stayed quiet about Lu Bai’s whereabouts.
“Sis, do you want to come to my place? I can make you something delicious.”
Lu Bai never suspected if she knew where Wen He was and felt only concern for her.
“No thanks, I still have business to attend to. You should go. Huo Yunting is here.”
She must not go to his place. It was safer for him that way.
“Alright, then I’m heading off. Catch you later.” Lu Bai looked her up and down again before saying, “This too shall pass. Cheer up.”
Lu Zhaoyang smiled and patted him on the arm. “Okay. You be careful too. Don’t get caught, I don’t want to do any jail visits.”
“Got it!”
Lu Bai nodded firmly and turned around to leave. He looked almost relaxed as he walked away, as though he had no worries.
After Lu Bai was gone, Lu Zhaoyang calmed herself down and began to worry again.
Now that she had left, would Huo Yunting be up to no good in there?
He seemed to be interested in those ladies and even smiled at them.
Perhaps that was one way to make him happy…
Lu Zhaoyang slowly came to a decision…
Back at the audition room, another group of candidates had just been rejected.
After they left the room, Su Cheng patted Huo Yunting on the shoulder and sighed. “I say, you ignored her when she was here, and now that she’s gone, you miss her. What’s with that?”
“It’s none of your business.” Huo Yunting threw a look at him. “Mind your own.”
“You rejected so many of these candidates, most of which I approved. I think I have the right to ask!”
Su Cheng blamed Huo Yunting for ruining his audition round because of his bad mood.
“You’ll make a loss if you hire any of them. I was just lending you a hand.”
“Do you doubt my ability in grooming talents? I’ve brought up so many guy and girl bands, anyone can succeed under my brand of packaging!” Su Cheng sipped on his wine and looked at the door, ready for the next candidate, when his widened at what he saw.
“F*ck, f*ck, Huo Yunting, take a look at this, this girl is definitely your cup of tea!”
“Yea? …”
Huo Yunting replied half-heartedly, no longer in the mood. He wondered where Lu Zhaoyang had gone to.
