After breaking off the engagement, she became the CEO's favorite

Shen Xiling bent his knuckles, tapped Lu Ranran's forehead lightly, and praised sincerely:

"clever!"

"Let's eat."

As he spoke, Shen Xiling sat down at the table and began to serve the soup seriously.

Lu Ranran is not someone who can be dismissed with just a simple “smart” comment.

"No," Lu Ranran sat down opposite Shen Xiling, "Why is Chu Yue——"

"Would you like some soup? Aunt Li's bitter melon and pork ribs soup is good for cooling down your internal heat."

"Ah, thank you!" Lu Ranran took the soup bowl and put it aside, wondering, "Chu Yue just holding this photo doesn't mean anything."

Shen Xiling raised his chopsticks and picked up a piece of pork ribs for Lu Ranran.

"The problem isn't 'this one'."

Lu Ranran let out an “ah”.

"So... well, so, Chu Yue took out this photo, which only means that she has something in her hand, but it doesn't say what she has in her hand."

"Chu Yue's purpose in finding Zhu Wen is not just Zhu Wen, but..."

Shen Xiling nodded.

Lu Ranran sighed, "She is so brave, making enemies everywhere..."

Shen Xiling said:

"Not necessarily. There will be a market only if there is demand. Zhu Wen is proof of this."

"So it was Qian Yu who came to find you, instead of you looking for Qian Yu? Is that right?"

Lu Ranran was able to make such a judgment based on her understanding of Qian Yu.

Qian Yu has been oppressed since childhood and has lived under the shadow of her younger sister.

Not long ago, he took advantage of the conflict between Qian Jiang and Qian Dasao to vent his anger.

If something went wrong in Qian Yu's family at this time, it would definitely lead to the ridicule of Qian Dasao and Qian Jiang.

The relationship between Chu Yue and the Shen family is well known in South City.

Even though she had just used Lu Ranran to vent her anger in front of Mrs. Qian and Qian Jiang.

But when it comes to his own problems, Qian Yu will come to him without hesitation.

"She wants you to mediate and make Chu Yue hand over her trump card..."

In fact, the invitation letter in Shen Xiling's hand was delivered by Qian Yu himself.

Shen Xiling originally didn't want to get involved, so he just asked Xiao Li to say a few polite words on his behalf.

But when Xiao Li came back to report, he said:

"Miss Qian has something important to discuss with you."

"She said that this matter has something to do with the lady."

Finally, Qian Yu sat opposite Shen Xiling with a smile that was a little sad.

"Sure enough, as long as she is mentioned, you will definitely meet me."

"What's the matter? Just tell me." Shen Xiling didn't say anything.

Qian Yu also put away his emotions, calmly took out a photo from his bag and placed it in front of Shen Xiling.

"My husband's subordinates were photographed."

"Then?"

"It was given to me by Lu Ranran's aunt, Chu Yue."

Shen Xiling raised his eyebrows.

"It's like this," Qian Yu cleared his throat, "I hope you can help mediate and get back everything she has."

"In return..."

"Lu Ranran is currently filming a TV series. I heard that her filming permit hasn't come out yet?"

After listening to this, Lu Ranran supported her cheek with one hand, looked at the ceiling with a vague look, and murmured:

"What does Chu Yue want to do by taking action at this time..."

"I don't know." Shen Xiling shook his head frankly.

Lu Ranran was amused, "I thought you were in charge of the whole thing."

"There is not enough information, so we can only take it one step at a time."

"But, Qian Yu just let you go like that?"

Qian Yu came to Shen Xiling to mediate, but how did it turn out to be doing a favor for Lu Ranran?

Shen Xiling raised the corners of his lips and smiled.

"It's simple. I said Chu Yue and I are not familiar with each other."

"Isn't it more than that?"

"And..." Shen Xiling picked up a piece of pork ribs for himself, "I said that you and Chu Yue have a bad relationship."

"..."

Qian Yu's move was to pull Lu Ranran into his camp.

If something happens to the person behind her later, Lu Ranran's project may also have to bear joint responsibility.

In this sense, she and Lu Ranran are a community of interests.

Shen Xiling would never stand by and watch someone die.

Thinking of this, Lu Ranran looked up and sighed.

"Earth is too dangerous. I want to go back to Mars."

Shen Xiling chuckled a few times and put a few pieces of ribs into Lu Ranran's bowl.

"Come back when you're full."

The crew received the permit shortly after the summit, and filming was expected to begin two days later.

Xia Tianxin probably learned the whole story from others and was in a bad mood for the whole day.

"I still think it's unreasonable." In the midst of being busy, Xia Tianxin would suddenly appear like a ghost behind the scenes to emphasize her point of view to Lu Ranran.

It was as if she really "just" had differences in ideas with the crew.

At this point, Lu Ranran didn't want to waste any more words and just nodded perfunctorily.

Xia Tianxin was silent for a while, as if she understood something from Lu Ranran's attitude.

"...Why don't you replace me?"

Lu Ranran raised his head from his busy work and looked at her puzzledly.

I think Xia Tianxin probably heard something from Zhu Wen or Chu Yue.

If this situation has not been changed, shouldn't Xia Tianxin, as the person involved, keep it from the topic and pretend nothing happened?

What is the purpose of digging deeper now?

"No," Lu Ranran frowned, "What do you want to know from me?"

"Are you going to play a trick on me later? Make me wear a cotton coat in the summer, go diving in the rain, and shoot the slapping scene for a whole day—"

"...Where is the slapping scene in our script?"

Xia Tianxin's words were stuck in her throat. She didn't know what to say for a long time. In the end, she just repeated it dryly.

"Why don't you replace me?"

Lu Ranran spread his hands helplessly, "Because everyone thinks you are suitable."

"...Suitable?" Xia Tianxin had a look of bewilderment on his face, mixed with a hint of resentment at the sarcasm.

"If you don't believe me, forget it. If you don't want to take the photo, go talk to Sister Hong yourself."

At this time, the staff of the clothing group called Xia Tianxin to try on clothes.

Xia Tianxin was hesitant to speak, turning left and right like a headless fly.

But soon, under the urging of the clothing team, Xia Tianxin walked towards the fitting room.

"Hey," Zhao Feifei appeared out of nowhere, her round face making her look much cuter.

"I heard from Sister Hong. It's possible. She has a lot of connections."

Lu Ranran forced a smile.

"Don't be too happy too soon, you don't know what will happen next."

"?"

Zhao Feifei quickly approached Lu Ranran.

"Ah? What else is going on?"

She frowned slightly when she spoke. If it were in the past, she would have looked like a cold beauty.

But the beautiful and superior facial features became rounded due to weight gain.

The frown at this moment actually showed a bit of cuteness and innocence.

Lu Ranran did not answer her directly, but joked:

"Yes, you haven't eaten enough to gain weight."

"Ah! Is this true?"

Zhao Feifei immediately put on a bitter face, "I have been trying very hard to eat..."

Lu Ranran stretched out his arm, hung it around Zhao Feifei's neck, and said with a smile:

"Don't worry, I'll give you a cup of milk tea in the afternoon."

"Ah?! Please don't..."

In fact, Zhao Feifei doesn’t really look fat now.

However, the lens is too harsh, and many normal things become abnormal under the lens.

And those deformed and abnormal things appear to be normal.

Weird.
