He was, alas, not the owner of this painting, so he could not decide on his own .
Moreover, this painting was really rare and precious; how could it be purchased with just ordinary money?
What was more; this painting was cherished deeply by his old friend . It was his baby . Even when someone offered a shockingly high price, he did not even bat an eye .
After the food was served, the manager entertained them with a few more words before excusing himself .
Yun Shishi was famished beyond belief . She quickly held her chopsticks and tried to pick up a sweet-and-sour pork rib . She felt helpless as she was not very good with chopsticks and was rusty at using them; plus, the pork rib was very slippery, and she could not pick it up no matter how hard she tried . For a moment, she was in a fix .
She was embarrassed…
She sulked a little . Biting her lower lip, she looked at the other dishes and chose something else instead . Just as she dipped her head to taste the delicacy, a piece of pork rib appeared on her plate .
Startled, she looked up, only to see him putting down his chopsticks as he looked at her indifferently .
Her heart was warm from this little consideration he showed .
Mu Yazhe smiled gently . “If you like it, eat more . ”
“Yes . ”
The man grabbed onto his chopsticks again, now a little hungry himself .
She did not know why, but her gaze was attracted to his milky and long knuckles .
His hands were truly beautiful . His slim and smooth fingers had distinct joints . He wore a diamond steel ring on the middle finger of his hand, which was more beautiful than a woman’s .
With a hand like this holding such exquisite chopsticks, the image could not be any more stunning .
The man cast her a sidelong glance . Seeing that she was just staring at his hands, he could not help but raise a brow . “Why aren’t you eating?”
“Your hands are so beautiful! They’re so white and long,” she gushed admiringly .
His eyes twitched as he barked, “Eat!”
“Okay!”
When the two were done with dinner, they left the restaurant together .
Opposite the restaurant was a river . Full from their recent meal, she pulled him for a walk on the riverbanks .
Suddenly, without warning, her phone rang .
She picked up the call when she realized that it was from her manager .
“Shishi, I’ve gotten it for you . It’s decided that you’ll play Qin Xianhui of ‘Lethal Beauty’ . ”
“It’s been hard on you, Mr . Qin!”
“Hmph! If I must say it, I think you are foolish . Instead of choosing the female lead role, you wanted the villain’s! Don’t say I didn’t warn you, but after this show airs, shield yourself with a pot cover . If those drama fans recognize you, you may get pounded like a sack of vegetables . ”
She laughed dryly . “Will it be that bad?”
“You think?”
“Has the female lead been decided yet?”
“Yes! It’s already decided that Lin Zhi will play it . ”
She pursed her lips before suddenly inquiring carefully, “Who’ll play the male lead?”
“It hasn’t been decided yet . When there’s an outcome, I’ll let you know!”
As she hung up the call, she practically radiated happiness .
She raised her head and told the man with her smilingly, “I just took on a new show; I am so happy!”
Originally, she thought that after what had happened, the chances of her getting an acting role in ‘Lethal Beauty’ would be slim .
Never did she think that she would clinch such an important role despite offending one of Global Pictures’ top brasses .
Yun Shishi excitedly threw herself into the man’s embrace . Hugging his waist, she bounced and hopped like a kid .
Even Mu Yazhe could not refrain from being infected by her happy emotions .
In his embrace, he could smell her natural fragrance and could not help tightening his arms around her body . Seeing her unable to contain her joy behind her smile, he was a little entranced .
Was she this happy just from getting a supporting role?
