Chapter 3163: Unintended Victim
“However, since Zhiqing wants to give you a chance, I won’t end Yu Guangxin’s career, for Zhiqing’s sake,” Han Zhuoling said.
“He has lost this opportunity, and he lost this opportunity because of you, Lu Xiuse, and Luo Qingxian.” Han Zhuoling continued. “However, this matter has been resolved. I will not do anything to his career, nor will I put an end to it.”
Yu Guangxin’s eyes lit up. He looked happy and relieved.
He didn’t expect Han Zhuoling to let him off the hook.
It did hurt to lose this chance.
But at least he didn’t lose the success that he had worked so hard to achieve.
Yu Guangxin hurriedly said, “Thank you. Thank you.” He hastily pulled Mrs. Yu and said to her, “Quick, thank Young Master Ling and Miss Yan.”
Mrs. Yu regained her senses.
Han Zhuoling and Yan Zhiqing did not continue seeking responsibility for the consequences of Mrs. Yu’s actions. It was truly an unexpected joy that everything Yu Guangxin had worked hard to attain until now could be preserved.
She hastily expressed her gratitude as well.
She might have held a grudge against Yan Zhiqing, but she didn’t feel as much hatred anymore.
When the two left, all the staff members obviously left of their own accord.
Because of Mrs. Yu, they naturally still needed to deal with the follow-up situation.
They needed to take the initiative to post about this, especially before the rumor could spread around.
Therefore, Shi Xiaoya said, “Why don’t we go to our room and think of a plan?”
“Since we are in front of my room, we might as well discuss it in there,” Yan Zhiqing said. “By the way, why are you guys here? Aren’t you guys eating outside?”
Everyone ended work at the same time.
She had yet to finish dinner with Wei Wucai, so she expected Shi Xiaoya to have not eaten much.
“We just came back after dinner,” Shi Xiaoya said. “We didn’t have to wait for the food delivery, so we naturally finished eating quicker than you guys.”
“That’s great, then. Come in and have some more food,” Yan Zhiqing said.
“Okay.” Han Zhuoling nodded. Even so, he didn’t move. Shi Xiaoya didn’t move as well.
Yan Zhiqing was weirded out by this as she thought that they had agreed to eat in her room.
Why weren’t they moving?
At this moment, she could see Shi Xiaoya trying to stop herself from laughing. Shi Xiaoya asked, “Are you two… going to just stay in this position? Are you… going to go into the room like this?”
No wonder Mrs. Yu got the wrong idea.
Yan Zhiqing blinked. She didn’t even realize what was going on.
After a few seconds, she suddenly realized that something wasn’t right.
Why was she feeling something on top of her shoulder?
Yan Zhiqing finally realized that she was in Wei Wucai’s arms!
Yan Zhiqing was surprised as she turned and saw Wei Wucai’s hand on her shoulder and his arm wrapping around her shoulders.
While she was in his arms, half of her body was leaning on Wei Wucai.
Her shoulder, back, and arms were leaning against his chest. At this moment, she could feel the warmth coming from his arm very clearly.
It felt so hot.
Yan Zhiqing’s face turned extremely red.
She felt unwell.
Because she suddenly remembered that she had been in this position when she was confronting Mrs. Yu…
She thought she looked fierce and was speaking with such logic. She thought she was so powerful that Mrs. Yu couldn’t even respond to her argument!
However, it all happened while she was being held by Wei Wucai. They looked so close to each other. She behaved like a kid towards him.
If she had said all those words while looking like that, she wouldn’t have seemed fierce at all!
In addition, she had been within his hold all this time and she hadn’t even realized it.
All the cast and crew members as well as the hotel customers saw it!
What would they think of it!
Yan Zhiqing lowered her head and covered her face with her hands.
She really felt like crying.
She felt so embarrassed.
Wei Wucai looked down and said, “Are you not going in?”
His innocent-sounding voice came from above her. It was as though he hadn’t realized that he was still holding Yan Zhiqing.
However, Wei Wucai’s voice brought Yan Zhiqing back to her senses.
Without saying a word, Yan Zhiqing immediately pulled away from Wei Wucai’s hug.
She even moved three steps away from Wei Wucai.
Wei Wucai felt speechless.
Did she have to move that far away?
Wei Wucai stared at Yan Zhiqing, causing her to feel really guilty. She placed both of her hands on her face, but then she thought that she looked stupid.
And so, she quickly placed her hands down.
However, the redness on her face had not gone away. And so, this instantly revealed her blushed face.
Fortunately, there was no mirror in front of Yan Zhiqing, so she didn’t know that her secrets had been revealed.
When Wei Wucai saw her flushed face, he felt so much joy that his eyes were smiling.
And yet, Yan Zhiqing didn’t notice anything. She pretended as though nothing had happened and tried her best to keep her head up.
She had no idea that her flushed face had already betrayed her.
She still pretended as though nothing had happened. She looked very calm when she asked, “Aren’t you all going in?”
Wei Wucai pursed his lips and tried to stop himself from laughing. He only chuckled a couple times.
He then glanced at her flushed face before he nodded and said, “Yes, let’s go in.”
And so, Wei Wucai, being a considerate person, walked in front so as to prevent Yan Zhiqing from noticing her own flushed face.
Yan Zhiqing took two deep breaths and let out a long sigh.
“Yan Zhiqing, stay calm!” Yan Zhiqing whispered to herself. She knocked herself on the forehead and proceeded to follow Wei Wucai, entering the room.
Yan Zhiqing closed the door and walked inside. She saw Shi Xiaoya and Han Zhuoling sitting on the sofa in the living room.
When she was eating with Wei Wucai, they had placed the dishes on the small table next to the window.
There were two chairs near the small table, which could be conveniently used for drinking tea.
The two temporarily used it as their dinner table.
“You two haven’t finished dinner, right?” Shi Xiaoya said. “Why don’t you two eat first? We can talk while eating anyway.”
Yan Zhiqing replied, “Let’s move the food to the coffee table and eat together.”
“No need for that. We came back after eating enough,” Shi Xiaoya said. “You guys should eat.”
However, it was still not convenient for them to eat beside the window.
Therefore, Wei Wucai carried the food items and placed them on the coffee table.
Even if Han Zhuoling and Shi Xiaoya weren’t eating, it was more convenient to place them on that table so that everyone could chat with each other.
Because the two had ordered a lot of food, the restaurant thought that there were a lot of people eating and gave extra sets of utensils.
Yan Zhiqing took two new sets of utensils and placed them in front of Shi Xiaoya and Han Zhuoling.
What if the two still wanted to eat some food?
It could just be because it was a little awkward to watch Yan Zhiqing and Wei Wucai eat or it might be because them not eating could make Yan Zhiqing and Wei Wucai feel uncomfortable eating by themselves…
And so, Shi Xiaoya and Han Zhuoling ate a little.
“How do you intend to deal with this?” Han Zhuoling asked.
“Regarding the matter involving Lu Xiuse, my brother is already trying to resolve it. They have cut off all her resources. However, she probably has no idea yet,” Yan Zhiqing said.
This was why Lu Xiuse had had the audacity to cause such trouble.
“As for Luo Qingxian… Seriously…” Yan Zhiqing felt so angry that she started laughing.
Yan Zhiqing thought that she was an unintended victim of Luo Qingxian’s harmful actions.
