Chapter 575: Other People’s Boyfriend
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
There were a total of four couples invited to the show as guests. Other than Murong Qiao and Huo Yichen, there were already two pairs.
The remaining pair was said to be a little late due to the plane and would arrive a few minutes later. However, it didn’t delay the recording of the show.
“Sorry, I was on the plane just now.” As soon as the call went through, Huo Yichen first explained his situation.
Murong Qiao chuckled. “Where are you?”
“I just left the airport. I’ll be there soon.”
Huo Yichen glanced at the crowd around him. “How are you doing with the production team?”
“I don’t have anything to do for the time being. I’m waiting for the recording of the show to begin. However, I got to know the guests who came to partic.i.p.ate in the show in advance.” Murong Qiao casually told him about the others.
She intuitively felt that she didn’t like Lu Ruman very much, but she felt that Zuo Qing’s personality was quite good.
Murong Qiao stood outside the dressing room and looked at the staff coming and going. Then, she looked at the scenery outside.
“When you come over, we can take a good look around here. The scenery looks good.”
This time, the production team had chosen a very good place as the filming location. It’s in an ancient town south of a river. Whether it was the road under their feet or the houses by the roadside, they were all elegant and very pleasing to the eye.
Murong Qiao had taken a few more glances when she came. Now that she had spoken to Huo Yichen on the phone, she couldn’t help but mention it.
“Alright, I’m in the car. We’ll talk when we meet later.” Huo Yichen’s background noises were much more chaotic.
After ending the call, Murong Qiao prepared to return to the dressing room.
Although they were both girls, Lu Ruman and Zuo Qing seemed to have a lot in common. However, the main conversation topic was mostly about Zuo Qing’s curiosity about Lu Ruman. Yue Ziyu was playing games beside her, and Zheng Yu was forced by Lu Ruman to listen to the conversation.
“You’re back! I wanted to call you just now.” When Zuo Qing saw Murong Qiao return, she immediately noticed and raised her hand to greet her.
Murong Qiao looked at Zuo Qing and Lu Ruman holding hands. She didn’t expect their relationship to improve so quickly after she went out for a while.
Murong Qiao sat back in his seat. “I just came back from a call. What’s the matter?”
“Director Yuan Qing said that the filming will begin in an hour and asked us to inform everyone,” Zuo Qing said.
It was just past noon, and the sun was not that scorching. Coupled with the slight breeze in the afternoon, filming the show wouldn’t be too tiring.
Murong Qiao nodded in understanding. “Got it. I’ll remember it.”
“In addition, I wonder if it’s convenient to ask… why isn’t your boyfriend here?” Lu Ruman asked at this moment.
She looked at Murong Qiao curiously. There was no gossip in her eyes, but it looked like a simple question.
Everyone was here to partic.i.p.ate in the show, and they were all here in pairs. Therefore, Murong Qiao, who was alone here, looked especially eye-catching.
“My boyfriend is still on the way. He wanted to come over together, but something happened at his company,” Murong Qiao explained casually.
Speak of the devil.
While Zuo Qing and Lu Ruman were chatting with Murong Qiao, the door was pushed open again.
There were already many people in the dressing room. The moment someone entered, they would attract everyone’s attention.
First, a pair of long legs entered everyone’s vision, followed by a narrow waist and broad shoulders. The beige windbreaker was casual and unrestrained. Coupled with the white shirt and tie inside, it carried a hint of abstinence, making the man look especially handsome and refined.
“I’m late, Qiaoqiao.” Huo Yichen didn’t care about the many gazes on him. After his gaze locked onto Murong Qiao, he walked over without hesitation.
He stood beside Murong Qiao and reached out to rub her head. Then, he placed the paper bag he had brought into Murong Qiao’s arms.
“I brought some pastries for you. I don’t know when we’ll have dinner tonight. It’s to fill your stomach first.”
Huo Yichen’s words rang in her ears, and the fragrance of pastries filled her nose.
It was probably a rose cake. Just by smelling the faint floral fragrance mixed with the soft and fragrant smell of the pastry, Murong Qiao felt that she was really a little hungry.
“You came so quickly.” Murong Qiao looked up at him.
Huo Yichen pulled a chair over and sat beside her. Then, he reached out to untie the bag for her, not caring that his hand was stained with the crumbs of the pastry. He took out an exquisitely shaped pastry that was light pink and placed it beside her mouth.
Murong Qiao took a bite without hesitation. “Oh… delicious.”
“It’s fine as long as it’s delicious. I guessed that you must be in a hurry to work and take a plane. You definitely wouldn’t have the time to eat later.” Huo Yichen didn’t find it troublesome and took out a second piece.
The two of them seemed to be interacting as if no one was around. Everyone in the dressing room saw them.
“Look at her boyfriend!” Zuo Qing rebuked Yue Ziyu in a super soft voice.
There was almost no need to say anything. Just by looking at them with her eyes, Zuo Qing felt that they were definitely a match made in heaven.
Yue Ziyu looked up. “Then I’ll buy it for you too? But didn’t you say that you would gain weight after eating it previously?”
He felt that he was telling the truth, but he was still rather helpless after receiving Zuo Qing’s glare.
On the other hand, Zheng Yu took in the gaze of Lu Ruman, who had been looking at Huo Yichen. He sat at the side with a calm expression, his heart calm.
After all, this couple had been “existing in name” for a long time.
On the other hand, Lu Ruman had been looking at Huo Yichen since he entered.
She had never seen such a good-looking man. He could get full marks just from his appearance, let alone be so careful and gentle. His personality was also so good.
No matter what, Murong Qiao sat in the center of the crowd and didn’t really let Huo Yichen reach out to feed her like this.
“I’ll eat it by myself.” Murong Qiao reached out and took the pastry.
She was not a child.
The smile in Huo Yichen’s eyes deepened. “Alright, wait for me for a while? I’ll go look for the director.”
After all, he was not only a guest on this trip. Huo Yichen was also an investor in the show.
“Just go.” Murong Qiao pouted.
Seeing this, Huo Yichen didn’t say anything else. He decided to go and come back quickly. After talking to the director, he returned as soon as possible, so he stood up and left.
Zuo Qing waited for Huo Yichen to leave before sneaking over to Murong Qiao.
“Um… your boyfriend is so handsome, but his aura is so strong.” After saying that, she realized that she might be wrong and hurriedly added, “I just think he’s handsome! I don’t mean anything else!”
When she saw Huo Yichen, her first reaction was that she was not worthy of him. She didn’t have any other thoughts.
“You’re right. He’s indeed very handsome.” Murong Qiao nodded in confirmation.
She simply agreed 10,000 times with others’ praise for her boyfriend.
After saying that, Murong Qiao took another bite of the rose-flavored cake happily. She felt that her lips and teeth were overflowing with fragrance. It was very delicious.
Lu Ruman sat close and naturally heard Murong Qiao’s conversation.
However, what concerned her even more was Huo Yichen’s words just now about going to look for Director Yuan Qing.
While Lu Ruman was thinking about Huo Yichen’s relationship with the director, she couldn’t help but divert her attention to listen to Zuo Qing and Murong Qiao’s conversation.
However, the conversation didn’t last long before it was interrupted by the last couple.
“h.e.l.lo, everyone. I’m Mu Zhe. This is my girlfriend, Ain.”
Unlike before, this time, the man is the first to introduce himself..
