Chapter 175: Chapter 175: Conflict

"Really? Maybe it’s just a rumor." A trace of doubt flashed in Wen Nuan’s eyes.

Doesn’t Ji Wei love Leng Yan? How could she be with another man?

"It could very well be true. I heard it from the actors in the crew. One of them started in the industry with her and acted in that play too. She said she saw it several times, Ji Wei going out alone at night with an investor and only returning the next day," Tong Xi said mysteriously and spat heavily, "What pure jade girl act, it’s all just packaging. By the way, that investor’s surname is Yue, named Yue Ming."

"Yue Ming?" Wen Nuan’s body shuddered.

This person seems to know Leng Yan.

"What’s the matter? Do you know this person?" Tong Xi was surprised and patted Wen Nuan’s shoulder, "Why such a strong reaction? If you know him, that’s great. Nuannuan, you should tell Leng Yan right away."

"But we don’t have any evidence. Let’s not talk about her. Let’s go. You go review your lines and try to get it in one go. I’ll find a cool place to wait for you." Wen Nuan checked the time on her phone and urged her.

Maybe it’s just a rumor, without any evidence she really couldn’t say anything.

"Alright, see that pavilion? That’s where we’re filming, shooting a scene where the hero saves the femme fatale," Tong Xi said, using a small fan to cool off and handing it to Wen Nuan, pointing to a pavilion not far away, "You take this, I won’t need it for now. You can go there and enjoy the show later."

"Hero saves the femme fatale?" Wen Nuan raised an eyebrow, "What do you mean?"

"You’ll know when you see it, haha, but the hero might not succeed in saving the damsel in distress," Tong Xi laughed, revealing two little tiger teeth, mischievous yet cute.

"So mysterious, you won’t even tell me?" Wen Nuan frowned.

Tong Xi deliberately kept her guessing, "You’ll find out soon enough. Anyway, there’s a good show to watch, just you wait to cheer."

Finding a good spot in the pavilion to sit down, many people in the crew knew Wen Nuan because of her connection to Tong Xi. Some young lads in the crew even whistled from the opposite side of the pavilion trying to catch her attention.

Wen Nuan smiled kindly and sat quietly, waiting for Tong Xi to come over.

"Quite popular, aren’t you? Already married and still flirting with men. Wen Nuan, I really admire you, you’re really thick-skinned." Ji Wei’s intentionally lowered voice, piercing, sounded next to Wen Nuan, who was taken aback and instinctively turned her head.

Ji Wei had already changed into her ancient costume, sitting next to her, slightly leaning left, her gaze focused on the lake. Outsiders would think she was enjoying the scenery, but only Wen Nuan knew her true intention of sitting there.

Biting her lip, Wen Nuan told herself that a gentleman does not feud with a villain. She smiled faintly and replied in a very low voice, "I actually admire you more. At most, I just smile at them, without any substantial interaction. Speaking of which, you’re the one who likes to express everything with actions. Xixi just told me..."

She deliberately didn’t finish the sentence, her beautiful eyes watching Ji Wei’s made-up profile with a teasing gaze as if chatting with an old friend, "She mentioned a name to me, a man’s name — Yue something. It seems I heard this name from Leng Yan before. I think they know each other?"

"Wen Nuan!"

Ji Wei’s teeth clenched tightly, her gaze retracting from the water, locking onto Wen Nuan, squeezing out two words through gritted teeth. From a distance, the director called out to her, she stood up with a jolt, swinging her broad sleeves forcefully, almost hitting Wen Nuan.

Wen Nuan instinctively dodged, the small fan in her hand swiftly flew out, landing accurately on Ji Wei’s wrist beneath her wide sleeve.
