Chapter 714: Chapter 723: Return (4)

Even though he had to preside over an important company meeting at ten o’clock tomorrow morning, he just wanted to catch a glimpse of Jian Anning. It seemed as though just by seeing her, his mood would inexplicably calm down!

In the heat of the moment, facing Director Li and a few others’ enthusiasm, all he did was smile and say, "Huasi Film and Television has been making some moves recently, so I’ve been tied up and had to leave for a while."

How could Director Li and the others possibly make an issue with Situ Xuan? Director Li just smiled in response, "Of course, of course."

However, behind them, Lu Jiayuan also frowned.

What was going on with Huasi Film and Television? Why hadn’t he heard anything about it?

Soon, he found out what Situ Xuan was up to. He said, "Zexiao, I will still be in charge of this album of yours—so, looking forward to a pleasant collaboration!"

Pleasant my ass! God knows, the person Yu Zexiao hated the most was none other than Situ Xuan!

Yu Zexiao didn’t even give him a proper look, just turned towards Jian Anning. Anning’s expression seemed quite normal, as if she wasn’t particularly thrilled about his arrival—instead, there was a touch of awkwardness, a hint of complexity.

After all, at this moment, she still didn’t know that Situ Xuan had never intended to seriously be with her from the start, since he already had a "fiancée." She just felt guilty for not living up to his kindness and consideration, and yet, she didn’t know how to repay him!

With neither of them talking, Hong Minjun had no choice but to speak up. She immediately stepped forward with a smile, "Mr. Situ, right? Hello, my name is Hong Minjun, the secretary to the president of Starlight Entertainment, Yin Maohui!"

Situ Xuan naturally had seen her before, but didn’t have any particular impression of her. At this moment, all he could do was smile and nod at her, his gaze still fixed on Jian Anning.

Director Li was aware of the strange entanglement between these people and, without a word, stepped forward, "Mr. Situ, we’ve just finished filming and are planning to go for late-night food and karaoke. Do you want to join us?"

Situ Xuan’s eyes were fixed on Jian Anning, his face breaking into a smile, "You’re all going together? Sure."

He had flown over today just to see Jian Anning. If she was going, he would naturally go as well.

Especially because—he also recognized the woman who had been set up with Yu Zexiao. Since she was there, it implied that Jian Anning and Yu Zexiao hadn’t reconciled, right?

Although Nie Anni was invited over by Huasi Film and Television, Situ Xuan only had someone ask her to come, but he himself didn’t know what this "proud disciple of Master John Gruber" looked like or even her name.

Pianists are generally male, so he had no idea who Nie Anni really was.

When Yu Zexiao saw his smile, he wanted to kill him! How could he not know what Situ Xuan was thinking? He was coveting his wife!

In the moment, Hong Minjun also seemed to sense something was amiss. As the secretary to a CEO, her strongest skill was dealing with people, so without hesitation, she immediately jumped in, "Haha, it’s perfect timing. Like Mr. Situ and me, just here to join the feast. Director Li, hope you won’t mind, haha!"

Director Li didn’t want to get involved in their tedious entanglement and quickly patted his chest, laughing heartily, "Great! Let’s make it a night of no return until we’re drunk! Let’s go!"

The celebrities, of course, each had their company’s nanny cars, and the other staff had their own dedicated bus.
