Sweetest Top Actress in My Home
chapter-177

“We felt that it was time to move on to the next part of our lives.”

Yao Fan thought that Jiang Yuning’s husband should be a normal person with an ordinary identity and background, since Jiang Yuning could so easily reveal that she was already married.

“Kids nowadays are all impulsive. Your husband is not part of the entertainment industry, is he?”

“No. He is an outsider.”

“I understand.” Yao Fan believed that Jiang Yuning’s husband was just an ordinary man with an ordinary life.

Therefore, Yao Fan was also willing to talk about Jiang Yuning’s marriage and she laughed as she looked at Song Chenxing. “Look at what you have done! You are scaring the girl. She is already married and that is why she had to keep avoiding you! Do you know how horribly some of your fans had insulted Yuning that day?”

Song Chenxing remained calm and composed but this time, he nodded his head lightly.

He knew that the main reason that arguments between both Jiang Yuning and his own fans had started was simply because of the information and pictures that were released by his own fans who had come to the filming set illegally.

Yao Fan had already made everything so clear. Would Song Chenxing continue being so cool and oblivious?

As the three of them were ordering their food, Director Shen Guobang’s assistant suddenly came and knocked at their door. He was panting when he came in but he ran over to Jiang Yuning and said, “Yuning, Director Shen Guobang wants you to go over and meet him now.”

“Now?” Jiang Yuning asked as she closed the menu and looked at Yao Fan and Song Chenxing. “But I am having lunch with Sister Fan and Brother Chen now.”

“Director Shen Guobang has said that if you are together, then the three of you can just come together.”

“Alright, lead the way,” Yao Fan said as she stood up immediately, followed by Song Chenxing.

When Jiang Yuning saw that Song Chenxing’s expression remained unchanged, she was finally relieved and she quickly followed behind them.

They did not expect that Director Shen Guobang was also having lunch at the hotel, though in the most secretive room.

The assistant led them to the room and at this time, Jiang Yuning suddenly noticed the bodyguards who were standing right outside the door of the room.

“Hm…was second brother here? Did he not go to work today?”

Yao Fan was a little shocked upon seeing the bodyguards. She could not imagine which big shot who needed such heavy security could be in the room with the director.

Yao Fan thus glanced at Jiang Yuning, but what she saw was the overwhelmed expression on the latter’s face.

“Please, you may enter now,” the hotel staff said to the few people.

Yao Fan was the first to enter the elegant room. When she entered the room, she could see Director Shen Guobang smiling as he spoke to the man who was seated directly across from him. This man’s back…

Why did it look so familiar?

How could it not be familiar? This was the exact same back that was pictured on the screensaver on Jiang Yuning’s cell phone. However, Yao Fan was unable to connect the dots at that moment.

Jiang Yuning was still standing behind Song Chenxing and she lowered her head because she was afraid to confirm the identity of the other party.

“You are all here.” Director Shen Guobang looked up at the few people who had just entered the room before he pointed at Lu Jingzhi. “This is the son of one of my closest friends. His surname is Lu.”

Yao Fan took a seat right next to Director Shen Guobang before she finally took a good look at the other party’s face. His facial features were strong and sharp, and his face looked perfectly symmetrical. He had a deep look in his eyes that could make anyone’s heart skip a beat when they looked at him. He was wearing a full black business suit and though it was obviously the usual dress code for men, he looked really outstanding and noble in the suit.

This man…

This personality…

Yes, he was definitely from the Lu family!

In fact, he was none other than the heir of the Lu family, Lu Jingzhi!

Why would he appear here for no reason?

Song Chenxing was also extremely puzzled as everyone in Luo City knew exactly who Lu Jingzhi was.

Even though Song Chenxing was the prince of the entertainment industry who was highly respected by everyone in the circle, in comparison to Lu Jingzhi, he would be regarded as merely an actor in the entertainment industry.

Why would someone as noble as Lu Jingzhi be in a place such as Shuofeng Film City?

At this time, Jiang Yuning finally entered the room.

She was obviously helpless when she saw Lu Jingzhi. She had not expected him to be so jealous to the point that he would intentionally arrange to meet Song Chenxing in this manner. Therefore, she knew that it was useless for her to try and hide.

“Aren’t you going to come over here?” Lu Jingzhi asked Jiang Yuning immediately.

Jiang Yuning sighed because she knew that this was inevitable. She walked over to Lu Jingzhi and sat down directly next to him.

The two of them looked extremely intimate.

Both Yao Fan and Song Chenxing were shocked upon seeing that.

Jiang Yuning glanced at Yao Fan, who had her eyes wide open, and she quickly explained, “This…is my husband.”

Once again, Yao Fan and Song Chenxing were taken by surprise.

“Is this the man that you have secretly been in love with for twelve years?”

Jiang Yuning nodded her head.

Yao Fan finally understood Jiang Yuning’s persistence in keeping her distance from any other men. If she were in Jiang Yuning’s shoes, she would have done the same.

Lu Jingzhi could not help but chuckle upon hearing Yao Fan asking if he was the man that Jiang Yuning secretly had a crush on for twelve years. He put his arms around Jiang Yuning and squeezed her shoulder before pulling her closer to him.

He was happy because this meant that Jiang Yuning had already told Yao Fan and Song Chenxing about their marriage.

“You are spoiling this girl too much. Why do you need to show up personally just because of such a small matter?”

“I am just here to have a look at my wife’s work place. I believe that this is a reasonable request. Furthermore, I really wanted to treat you to meal, Uncle Shen. If my wife misbehaves or performs below your expectations, do not hesitate to punish her, Uncle Shen,” Lu Jingzhi said, once again demonstrating the standards of the Lu family.

“When have I ever misbehaved? I am very good,” Jiang Yuning quickly protested as she turned around to look at Lu Jingzhi.

“Well, I actually have to praise her because she has a very charming personality and good working attitude. Everyone in the production crew and cast loves her. Anyone who has a headache or fever would also go to her for help.”

“That is good.”

At this point, Yao Fan also understood Lu Jingzhi’s intention for holding this lunch.

She finally understood why Lu Jingzhi was not hesitant to allow them come along with Jiang Yuning.

This was because Lu Jingzhi knew about the scandal involving Jiang Yuning and Song Chenxing and he had come here to assert his dominance.

Yao Fan would have never expected that someone like Jiang Yuning, who acted as if she had no backing and silently endured everything when Qian Ge was bullying her, actually had the most valuable and strong backing in the whole of Luo City.

Furthermore, they were not merely playing around with one another. They were really in love and they had even registered their marriage!

Jiang Yuning was really too low profile.

As she thought about it, Yao Fan realized that Jiang Yuning was really not an ordinary artiste. If she was just like any other female artistes in the entertainment industry, she could simply have used her connection and relationship with Lu Jingzhi and Director Shen Guobang to her advantage in any way that she pleased. However, Jiang Yuning was very down to earth and was happy to play the role of the third female lead. She did not even tell anyone about the connections that she had.

Yao Fan stole a glance at Song Chenxing, who still had a nonchalant expression on his face. She could not guess what was running through his mind at all.

However, with the way things had progressed during lunch today, she believed that Song Chenxing also understood what he should do.

The few of them enjoyed a very relaxing and lively meal filled with laughter because of Jiang Yuning’s playfulness.

At the end of the meal, Director Shen Guobang then spoke to both Song Chenxing and Yao Fan. “Jingzhi’s identity is very special. Therefore, you have to keep what you have seen today to yourselves.”

“Director Shen Guobang, you can be rest assured.” Yao Fan quickly assured him. She obviously knew the importance of keeping this matter a secret.

“And Chenxing, can you please find a way to deal with your fans and try to calm them down? Jingzhi does not mind the fact that you are both involved in the scandal, but he really does not want people to endlessly scold and insult his wife. Do you understand?”

“I got it,” Song Chenxing replied as he nodded his head.

The three of them then walked out of the elegant room, leaving only Jiang Yuning and Lu Jingzhi behind.

“Why didn’t you give me a heads up before arranging this? Don’t you have to work today?”
