After Xi De paid the bill, he sent Lu Zhen back to her residence. When they arrived at the hotel, it was almost nine o’clock. Lu Zhen hurriedly washed up and applied a mask and hand cream.

Then, Lu Zhen took out her phone and told Ye Xuan about her promise to Xi De.

Ye Xuan was indeed a workaholic. She immediately replied, “No problem. You’re indeed going to the Night of Stars. I’ve already contacted the brand in advance. Since Wu Dai and Xu Rui are going together, you naturally can’t be alone. Although Xi De isn’t popular enough, he’s an old actor. It’s quite suitable for him to go with you.”

Lu Zhen heaved a sigh of relief. “I was worried that you would blame me for taking matters into my own hands.”

“I’m not that petty. Besides, you still have to continue working with Xi De. Since he took the initiative to mention this, you definitely had to give him an answer back then. It’s not considered acting on your own.”

After Ye Xuan finished speaking, she sighed. “Sigh, if you and Song Jia don’t have any scandals, I think we can publicize you and Xi De and form a couple partner for the two of you.”

Hearing this, Lu Zhen smiled helplessly.

It was very common in the entertainment industry to hype up couple partners. Sometimes, the two parties involved and the audience knew that this was not true, but the audience liked to fantasize. Some production teams and celebrities often used this method to boost their popularity.

Of course, couple partners were completely different from real couples, but sometimes, it was inevitable that fake scenes would be real.

“Then don’t. I don’t want to be a social butterfly in reality. I already have enough scandals. Let’s end it here. I hope there won’t be any more scandals related to me in the future. I just want to film my scenes in peace.” Lu Zhen placed her phone on the head of the bed and crossed her hands, doing the “finger exercises” she had recently learned.

“Alright, then rest early. I’ll arrange this.” After Ye Xuan finished speaking, she was about to hang up.

Lu Zhen thought of something else. “Should we tell Song Jia about this?”

“I’m your manager. I can decide on this, but you can tell him.” “Why should I say it?” Lu Zhen asked subconsciously.

“I’m not in a scandal with him.” Ye Xuan’s tone was very natural.

Lu Zhen fell silent. What Ye Xuan said seemed to make sense. After hanging up, Lu Zhen hesitated for two minutes before picking up her phone. She opened Song Jia’s chat box on WeChat and asked, “Are you asleep?

“No, I’m at the company. Why?” Song Jia replied almost instantly.

“Are you working overtime?” Lu Zhen hesitated for a moment before typing.

“I guess so, but I’m not very busy. Don’t worry.” Song Jia seemed to be responding to Lu Zhen’s concern.

Lu Zhen was a little embarrassed. After hesitating for a moment, she took the initiative to tell Song Jia about Xi De.

Song Jia was silent for a long time before replying, “Since Ye Xuan said that it’s okay, go ahead.”

Lu Zhen heaved a sigh of relief, but on second thought, why should she be nervous? Song Jia was her boss, so there was nothing wrong with her reporting the work plan to her boss.

Lu Zhen looked at the chat box in a daze for a while. Seeing that Song Jia didn’t reply, she was about to turn off her cell phone and sleep when her cell phone rang again.

“You just wanted to tell me about this?” Song Jia asked.

Lu Zhen was stunned. That’s right. What else would it be? However, she felt that she could not answer like that. There must be a reason why Song Jia asked this question. Was it because Song Jia was too tired from work that she disturbed him over such a small matter?

Lu Zhen immediately sat up straight on the bed. She held her phone with both hands and thought for a moment before replying, “Sorry, did I disturb your work? You called me today, so I thought it was better to explain this to you.”

Song Jia looked at Lu Zhen’s words and held his forehead helplessly. Why was she in the state of a boss and employee again?! Can’t she relax and talk to him? He was indeed a little unhappy just now. When he thought about how she was going to dress up for the gala with another male actor, his heart ached.

He hadn’t even held her hand and appeared in a large public place, yet others had already obtained this opportunity.

However, Song Jia also knew that Lu Zhen had only agreed because of work needs. Ye Xuan had already said that there was no problem with this matter, so he naturally couldn’t say anything.

But Song Jia didn’t expect Lu Zhen to stop talking after talking about Xi De.. Did she only have work to report to him? He had been waiting for her news two hours ago, but she didn’t even greet him after reporting her work?
