Before she could finish her sentence, however, a second-rate female celebrity suddenly walked up to Jiang Ye and put her arm intimately around his. "Ye, let's have another drink. I haven't seen you in so long, you can't leave today unless you're drunk!"

Jiang Ye couldn't refuse; although these female celebrities weren't famous, they were still GK's artist. Therefore, he had no choice but to drink with that woman. Huo Mian, on the other hand, took this opportunity to run right into the washroom.

"You…" Jiang Ye finished his drink and turned around to talk to Huo Mian again, but she was already gone.

Where did she go? It took at most 5 seconds to drink a glass of wine, did she run away during that time frame? Was she a ghost? How did she do that?

Jiang Ye smiled helplessly and decided to stand outside the washroom until Huo Mian came out.

Five minutes later, Huo Mian realized she couldn't stay in the washroom forever, so she made her way out…

To her surprise, that man was still there.

Jiang Ye smiled upon seeing her and was just about to say something when Huo Mian made a turn and walked out the door…

Jiang Ye stood there, dumbstruck. Did his attempt to hit on her fail twice in a row?

"Ha… is she playing hard to get?" Amused, Jiang Ye raised his eyebrows.

He had been in the industry for too long and thought everyone was more complicated than they seemed. Therefore, he thought Huo Mian was just playing cat and mouse with him to keep him interested.

Not far away from Jiang Ye, Qin Chu was chatting with some directors when he looked up and noticed that Huo Mian had walked out the door. He froze for a second but decided not to run after her immediately.

Rick owned Seductive Fox, so he didn't have to be worried for Huo Mian's safety…

After Huo Mian left the private room, she walked in the hallways and breathed in some fresh air.

Truth be told, she wasn't interested in nor did she worship that superstar. She didn't even want to talk to him.

As she walked around, Huo Mian saw the door at the end of the hall open with a 'bang'.

Then, a woman stormed out; when she passed Huo Mian, the latter realized that she was the woman Rick went to the movies with last time. Her name was Xixi, and she also attended Rick's private party.

"Are… you okay?" Huo Mian asked upon seeing how mad Xixi was.

"I'm fine," Xixi replied while her brows furrowed into a knot. Then, she angrily ran downstairs.

At the same time, Rick ran out as well…

"Xixi… wait, listen to me!"

"I don't want to listen to you!" Xixi shouted as she ran downstairs.

"Xixi… it's not what you think, you've mistaken…" Rick didn't know what to say to cheer a woman up. Like Qin Chu, he was a man of few words, but Qin Chu was good at playing cute and innocent. Not only did Rick suck at all that, it was also his first time in a relationship and therefore he had no idea how to be in one.

Only then did Huo Mian realize what was happening – it was a couple's spat!

As anxious as he was, Rick still nodded at Huo Mian upon passing by her, and she nodded right back at him. However, before she could say anything, Rick quickly headed down the stairs, where Xixi ran off to…

It seemed like even tough mafia bosses were tortured by women when they were in love…

Huo Mian sighed as he looked at Rick's disappearing silhouette, "Our ancestors were right. Even a hero becomes a prisoner in front of the woman they love."

"Hey, what's Chief Huo doing, exclaiming about life here?" A familiar voice sounded behind Huo Mian, scaring her shitless.

She turned around; after realizing who it was, she punched Su Yu's shoulder. "Where did you come from? Are you trying to scare me to death?"
