Chapter 190 - 189: To Pay a Bill-II

It was Xie Hue Lin's speciality and talents to act that it didn't surprise her anymore. Rather, it would be weird if she was surprised now. At this point, He Chang Min who helped Xie Hue Lin and play with her act only seemed like a dimwit to her eyes.

"Look who is here!"

"Director He!"

"Director He must have come because he heard Hue Lin is here! How passionate!" Mo Huan clapped his hands excitedly.

Taking a sip of her orange juice she then heard Violet beside her whisper, "Not even a sip." Li Lian turned her face to find Violet smirked, "She should have been an actress."

"That's a profession which is too good for her."

"What are you talking about?" Fuen Chang's voice beamed and He Chang Min who had been standing on the opposite side shifted his eyes to find how there was a man near Li Lian his brows knit together imperceptibly.

This man just need to know everything, thought Li Lian seeing how Fuen Chang continuously staring at her every move. "We are talking about the novel of Handmaiden." Li Lian kept her words polite that the man nodded.

"I've read the book too! I have heard that it was a story based on a real live people." Fuen Chang replied cheerily.

Xie Hue Lin saw how He Chang Min gazed hardly to Li Lian, she pulled his arm and snuggled her head to his elbow to draw his attention and spoke coquettishly, "Why are you here? I thought you were busy."

Being the perfect boyfriend he was, the type of a man where women would fall in love first, He Chang Min gently smiled replying, "Of course I heard that you will be drinking here and how can I leave you here?"

"So sweet! I feel like eating dog food seeing the two of them!" someone spoke from the side.

Xie Hue Lin appeared to be shy by the praises gave by the people in the dining room and glanced like at Li Lian in triumph before looking at He Chang Min to then turned her eyes down shyly. "Hue Lin seemed to be a little drunk now, I will bring her home. Order what everyone want because today will be my treat." once he said the words, the dining room became more cheerful thanking him and his endless wealth.

He then looked at Li Lian but break his gaze to Fuen Chang, "You too, Mr. Chang, take it as a celebration for your last scene in the movie yesterday."

"Thank you very much! I will not be too courteous then!"

"Yes, everyone shouldn't hold themselves and order what you want." Xie Hue Lin beamed and her eyes fell down to Li Lian, "You too, Li Lian and Ah! That's right Min-Ge," she pulled his hand and gave him a look as if to tell him he had something he had forgot.

Having told once, He Chang Min quickly regain his eyes from staring intently to Li Lian who seemed to be not caring with the affection they had and the emotion made him felt gratified. Remembering their last meeting with Li Jun Wei, He Chang Min ground his teeth in dislike. "Next week is Hue Lin's grandmother birthday and everyone is invited to the party. I hope everyone could come. This is the invitation."

He Chang Min passes the invitation and people began to pass the invitation from one to another, however, Xie Hue Lin was the one to give the invitation properly to Li Lian's hand. "You have to come too Li Lian, it's my beloved grandmother's birthday she would love to have more guests to her birthday party."

"I will try to do so." Li Lian smiled looking at the invitation card she wondered if Xie Hue Lin didn't know He Chang Min had given her one or perhaps if she had to do it again to make sure she would come in front of the many people.

"Of course."

Then the waitress came to the dining room and He Chang Min who was about to pay for the food rose his brows with a confused expression and the waitress replied aloud, "Everything had been paid sir, earlier."

"Everything had been paid?" Xie Hue Lin knitted her brows, it was their time to show their gracious yet someone had paid before them? But then again there wasn't many people who could afford to pay for the bill.

"There was someone who had paid for the bills?"

"Is it Si Ren or Fuen Chang? Or perhaps Mr. Du or Mr. Qing?" someone asked but the men looked at the news with also a questioning expression.

"Yes!" The waitress replied.

"Who is it?" He Chang Min asked.

"It's..." The waitress pulled the bill and spoke, "Mr. Li. The customer also left a few words that says, 'Thank you very much for taking care of my artist.'"

He Chang Min's smile fell but Xie Hue Lin was confused. "Mr. Li? Which Mr. Li?" There were many people with the same surname in Beijing alone.

"Mr. Li from Li Corporate!" the waitress replied and everyone was surprised. Li Lian in particular was also surprised, her juice she drank was almost spitted out from her lips. She then quickly gave Violet a look, asking, "Have you reported us here to Jun Wei?"

"I haven't mistress, there are time I'm assigned too unless it is involving any harmful action."

Then how? How was Li Jun Wei here?

Xie Hue Lin shot a dirty look to Li Lian. There was only one singer from Spirit Entertainment and it was only Li Lian! But for Mr. Li to personally pay for the bill? and she recall how she had met Li Lian and Li brothers in front of the elevator, how close they were. There was also the news she heard that Li Xiao Chen was the one who had personally scouted Li Lian.

"Even though they shouldn't have to..." Xie Hue Lin said with a troubled expression.

"And where is the person who had paid the bill?" He Chang Min asked. There was a pride in him that was irked by how someone had paid the bill right after he said he would be the one to pay.

"The customer is in the other room, sir."
