Chapter 787: Chapter 787: Playing Me

Gong Qiming and Yue Qingqing were enjoying their meal when suddenly two uninvited guests appeared at their table.

Gong Qiming felt his appetite ruined and looked up indifferently at Ou Chi and Zhang Caidie.

Ou Chi sat down next to Gong Qiming and greeted him in a very familiar manner.

"Isn’t this Xiaogong?"

Gong Qiming was not fond of people like Ou Chi and responded perfunctorily, "What a coincidence."

"It really is a coincidence. We haven’t seen each other in a long time before recording the show, and the last time we met was at the Golden Phoenix Film Festival award ceremony. You won the Most Popular Male Actor Award. Impressive for someone so young, but don’t let it go to your head. You still need to learn and observe more."

Ou Chi lectured like a senior while casually flipping through the menu.

"This signature dish of Boston lobster with cod isn’t bad. Let’s add a vanilla-baked snail and a tomahawk steak. I didn’t expect the menu here to be so comprehensive."

Ou Chi looked towards Zhang Caidie, "What would Xiaoyuan like to eat?"

Zhang Caidie glanced at Gong Qiming with affection, then turned to Ou Chi, "I’ll have the same as Brother Chi."

Ou Chi snapped his fingers and called the waiter to order the food.

All this time, Yue Qingqing and Gong Qiming kept their heads down and focused on eating, not giving the other two a glance.

It was not until Ou Chi put his arm around Gong Qiming’s shoulder and said with a chuckle, "Thanks Xiaogong for treating us to this meal. I’ll treat you back in Beijing after we finish recording the show."

Gong Qiming looked up in surprise, shrugged his shoulder, and shook off Ou Chi’s hand.

"Ou Chi, when did I say I would treat you to a meal?"

Scrounging a meal? Didn’t these two feel ashamed?

A flicker of annoyance crossed Ou Chi’s eyes. Normally people of Gong Qiming’s age would address him as Brother Chi or Teacher Ou. Gong Qiming was really impolite. What an attitude!

Moreover, it was only right for a junior like him to treat his senior to a meal. Did this kid understand how people interact? What were his parents teaching him?

But considering the cameras were not far away, Ou Chi still wore a fake smile on his face, "I heard from the staff that you made quite a bit of money performing? Everyone should get a share, right?"

Zhang Caidie also chimed in delicately, "Yes, help us out, Brother Qiming."

Gong Qiming felt goosebumps at her tone and exchanged a look with Yue Qingqing, both speechless at their thick-skinned behavior.

Gong Qiming thought for a moment and used Spiritual Energy to send a secret message to Yue Qingqing to discuss something briefly.

Yue Qingqing nodded slightly, and just like that, they exchanged opinions out of the camera’s view.

Ou Chi and Zhang Caidie, completely unaware, thought Gong Qiming had nothing to say and agreed by default. They happily waited for the food to be served.

"I’m going to the restroom first, everyone keep eating."

Gong Qiming made an announcement and walked out.

After a while, Yue Qingqing felt puzzled.

"Why has senior brother been gone so long? I’ll go check on him."

Ou Chi and Zhang Caidie were served their food, and they didn’t pay any attention to Yue Qingqing.

To Ou Chi, this girl was just a novice, not worth his effort.

However, when they finished eating and still didn’t see them come back, doubts began to arise in their minds.

Pei Zhe, who saw everything clearly from the stage, lowered his head and couldn’t help but laugh inappropriately.

The waiter looked over here discretely, with a wary expression.

Zhang Caidie whispered, "Brother Chi, they didn’t leave, did they?"

"How dare they, during a recording?"

Ou Chi, with a steely face, called the waiter over, only to receive a shocking answer.

The two had indeed paid their own bill and left, stranding Ou Chi and Zhang Caidie.

Thinking of his empty wallet, Ou Chi was seething with rage.

"Gong Qiming, how dare you play me!"
