The King’s Enchanting
Chapter 116 - 116 120 The Past Present 4

116: Chapter 120: The Past, Present (4) 116: Chapter 120: The Past, Present (4) Facing Director Li’s indirect approach, Yu Zexiao showed no reaction at all.

He didn’t even glance at Lu Jiayuan again, instead, he strode over to the resting area reserved for him and sank into the soft rattan chair, comfortably crossing his legs and not forgetting to issue an order, “Assistant Jian, I want coffee, go make it for me!”

Because of Yu Zexiao’s remark, the focus of attention suddenly shifted to Jian Anning who was standing by.

Just moments ago, she had unapologetically set Jiang Xuanqi straight, and now she seemed unfazed, with Yu Zexiao not reprimanding her in the slightest.

To Jian Anning, it appeared as if the incident that just happened wasn’t a big deal.

Since Yu Zexiao had given an order, she naturally nodded, went over to the side, took out the thermos, and poured him coffee.

Soon, the aromatic scent of high-quality Jamaican coffee beans, mixed with the smell of freshly baked cookies from the insulation box, began to permeate the film set.

This was a film set after all and, excessive as he might be, Yu Zexiao wouldn’t demand things like espresso machines be brought over.

Therefore, Jian Anning had prepared the coffee at the hotel and brought it in a thermos for him.

Everyone watched in astonishment as Yu Zexiao sat aside, sipping on the fragrant freshly-ground coffee and munching on barely sweetened soda biscuits, lazily stretching his slender body, looking as relaxed as if he was enjoying an afternoon tea.

Everyone was already familiar with Yu Zexiao’s aloofness and uniqueness, but they never imagined he would treat Lu Jiayuan, who had come from afar, as if he were nonexistent!

He couldn’t even be bothered to look at him or exchange a word!

Director Li was somewhat at a loss for words, wanting to say something to relieve the awkward atmosphere, but found he couldn’t figure out what to say.

Lu Jiayuan, on the other hand, frowned slightly, looking at Yu Zexiao, who was enjoying the cookies and coffee, and then at Jian Anning sitting next to him.

In his mild smile, a thick shade of confusion appeared.

It was a crew member, however, who came out to smooth things over, “Zexiao, stop eating for now.

Jiayuan is treating us to Sichuan cuisine later.

If you fill up on snacks now, you won’t have room for dinner.”

As he spoke, he let out a laugh as if amused by his own words.

A few other crew assistants nearby joined in with a chuckle.

Regardless, the atmosphere was slightly eased.

However, upon hearing this, Yu Zexiao frowned again and said quite naturally, “A dinner gathering?

I don’t want to go.”

He had lines to memorize that evening, piano to practice, and had even arranged a short course to study acting—who had time for dinner parties?

Besides, dinner gatherings meant everyone huddled around a large round table, sharing dishes with everyone picking with their chopsticks, scooping with their spoons—eating each other’s saliva in the process, so unsanitary that he couldn’t stomach it!

At this, the film set truly fell silent!

All faces froze, anger slowly rising within them: This Yu Zexiao really had an infuriating arrogance!

If it weren’t for his status, his identity, his background, he truly would be hard to like!

Yet he was, after all, the favorite of the heavens, including Director Li, someone everyone in the production team had to coddle and hold in high regard!

He could even walk away right now, abandon his superstar title, and take over the vast family business of Huanyu Group!
