Chapter 243: Chapter 243: I Miss You

Fu Sichen arrived fashionably late, his gaze resting on Jiang Mian for a moment, a smile flitting across his lips as he headed straight for an empty seat.

Director He was the first to stand, and others followed suit, "President Fu, you’ve arrived, please have a seat."

Jiang Mian let out a sigh of relief, thinking it was good he had gone over.

Xu Lai looked at his wife’s seat, slightly bewildered.

Why would she sit by the door?

It seemed like she was avoiding President Fu??

Fu Sichen stopped in front of the main chair without further action.

"President Fu, you... what’s this?"

Fu Sichen’s voice was nonchalant as he raised his eyes to Jiang Mian, "Change seats."

What??

Jiang Mian glanced away from Fu Sichen’s dark pupils uncomfortably, her heart involuntarily skipped a beat.

He Lei was completely confused, wondering why everyone suddenly didn’t want to sit at the front? Were the seats at the back that magical??

Recognizing the situation, Xu Lai quietly asked the opinion of the person next to Jiang Mian, "Can you take the main seat? This position is ideal for our President Fu and it’s prosperous."

What???

He Lei glanced at Jiang Mian, then at Fu Sichen.

Had these two recently had their fortunes told?

Both to prosper.

Jiang Mian saw the person beside her stand up, then looked at Fu Sichen’s expressive eyebrows.

This smug man.

"Director He, you take that seat. I’m feeling quite uneasy."

It’s just that a minor actor like her could be overwhelmed by such a seat.

He Lei waved it off, "Don’t worry, we’re all friends here. Just sit, otherwise, it’d indeed make you uneasy."

Bai Yu noticed some change in Jiang Mian’s expression, "Teacher Jiang, how about I swap seats with you?"

Xu Lai internally shouted: Damn! Are you crazy!! Shut up!!!

He unconsciously looked towards President Fu, his face bearing a more meaningful smile.

Jiang Mian was startled by Bai Yu’s sudden suggestion.

Seeing her reaction, He Lei joked, "Jiang Mian, you surely wouldn’t want to give up this spot that you said could bring wealth. Could it be that Teacher Bai has also taken a fancy to it?"

"That’s not the case."

Fu Sichen sat down next to Jiang Mian, his eyes dropping to look at her hands resting on her lap, his voice deep and steady, "Just sit still then."

Things felt like they were turning into a battlefield.

"Let’s eat, everyone, please don’t be shy."

People around the table started picking up their chopsticks one after another, and Jiang Mian, feeling hungry as well, ignored the man beside her and began to eat.

Her phone was buzzing incessantly.

She frowned slightly.

That Su Lixing, gossiping without even turning off her vibration.

Jiang Mian found an excuse to go to the bathroom.

She listened to about a dozen voice messages from Su Lixing, then spoke into her phone—

"Can’t hide, can’t hide, Fu Sichen said sitting next to me would bring prosperity, I really thank him."

"How should Mrs. Fu thank..."

?!!!

Jiang Mian’s phone nearly fell into the sink.

The man was standing right behind her.

"Fu Sichen! Could you possibly walk any quieter? Trying to scare someone to death?"

Fu Sichen grasped Jiang Mian’s wrist, pinning her against the sink, his voice calm and unhurried, "The innocent have nothing to fear from ghosts knocking at the door, so? Are you avoiding me today?"

"I...I’m not avoiding you!"

Jiang Mian stuttered briefly before asserting righteously, "Why are you mimicking me, always following me around... the main seat’s right there yet you insisted on squeezing next to me..."

"I missed you."

Before Jiang Mian could finish speaking, she heard the man’s deep, indulgent voice.

She suddenly paused, staring at the man in front of her as her lips slightly parted.

Her fair neck grew warm, eventually blooming into a flush that spread upwards.

"Does Mrs. Fu not miss me at all?"

Fu Sichen’s cool breath drew closer, and Jiang Mian felt like her heart was about to burst out.

What was this man up to!

Why was he acting so coquettishly again?
