Caught in Affairs with Superstar

Chapter 558: Chapter 427: Reunion with Ning Yao

Anti-theft: Replacement after half an hour.

-

Su Yan was sitting to the right of Lew Qingqing and Zhou Yun. She leaned over, curiosity written all over her face, and asked, ”Did you guys know each other before?”

Lew Qingqing immediately answered, ”This is our first meeting today. Did you know Xiao Yun before?”

”It’s my first time meeting her too,” Su Yan said, ”But I was really shocked when I saw the trending search this morning.”

Zhou Yun said innocently, ”That’s just the paparazzi making things up.”

”I remember you’re currently filming with Song Chi,” Lew Qingqing countered Su Yan, ”You should know best whether Zhou Yun is Song Chi’s girlfriend or not.”

Hearing this, Su Yan’s eyes flickered slightly and she laughed awkwardly, ”Although I’m in the same crew with him, how would I know about such matters?”

At first glance, her words seemed fine, but they were actually quite evasive. Lew Qingqing’s earlier remark was meant to have Su Yan confirm the rumor, to clarify it. However, Su Yan had skirted the issue, subtly implying that even if Song Chi and Zhou Yun were dating, she wouldn’t know about it.

Zhou Yun had no choice but to emphasize again, ”I don’t know Teacher Song Chi at all.”

Lew Qingqing patted Zhou Yun’s hand and said, ”Don’t worry, fans these days are smart. They won’t be led by the nose by the paparazzi; there’s nothing to worry about.”

Zhou Yun gave Lew Qingqing a grateful smile.

Beside them, Su Yan took a pair of sunglasses out of her bag and put them on.

Upon seeing this as he chatted with someone else, Chen Quanying directly asked, ”Su Yan, why are you wearing sunglasses now that the sun has set? Trying to look cool?”

That remark almost made Su Yan lose her composure.

Zhou Yun observantly noticed a twitch at the corner of Su Yan’s mouth.

She had heard that Chen Quanying was straightforward, and there were numerous rumors in the industry about her putting others in their place. Today’s encounter really was... quite unique. At least, in Zhou Yun’s experience in the industry so far, it was the first time she saw someone openly calling out another like that.

Except for the inherent conflict between Lew Qingqing and Su Yan.

Su Yan took off her sunglasses, pouting and said with a hint of grievance, ”Oh Sister Ying, I’m tired and wanted to sleep a bit in the car.”

Even Su Yan didn’t dare directly confront Chen Quanying.

Lew Qingqing did not miss this chance against her arch-enemy, adding fuel to the fire, ”Then let’s switch seats. I’d like to chat with Sister Ying. I used to love her songs when I was in school, and even went to her concert with my friends.”

Su Yan’s glare shot over immediately.

Chen Quanying looked at Lew Qingqing excitedly, ”You’ve been to my concert?”

”Yes, five years ago, at Beijing Workers’ Stadium,” Lew Qingqing said, ”Do you remember?”

”Of course, I remember my own concerts,” Chen Quanying turned to Su Yan and said, ”Weren’t you going to sleep? Since Lew Qingqing wants to switch with you, just move fast.”

Su Yan’s expression turned awkward, like she was being hung out to dry.

She was being ousted.

Su Yan couldn’t swallow her pride but had no choice but to grit her teeth, switch seats with Lew Qingqing.

There was a camera filming, and Zhou Yun smiled and called out, ”Sister Yanyan.”

Su Yan maintained a stiff face, nodded slightly, and put her sunglasses back on, not showing whether she was actually sleeping or not.

Only then did Zhou Yun take out her phone, slightly turning away so Su Yan couldn’t see her screen, and texted Zhou Lan: Did you see what happened this afternoon?

Zhou Lan: What?

Zhou Yun said: Su Yan kicked me.

Zhou Lan: What? During the game? It wasn’t intentional, right?

Zhou Yun: No, it was intentional. Because I didn’t stand with her, I was instead close with Lew Qingqing.

Zhou Lan: They really don’t get along?

Zhou Yun: They clashed directly when changing clothes.

Zhou Lan: Then don’t act hastily now, finish recording the show first, remember how you need to appear on camera.

Zhou Yun: I know, but remember to ask someone for a video backup.

Zhou Lan: Leave this matter to me, rest assured.

When he was done explaining, Zhou Yun finally breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Su Yan.

Su Yan suddenly spoke, her voice cold: ”Is there something?”

She was indeed not asleep.

Zhou Yun looked confused, ”Huh? Sister Yanyan, what’s wrong?”

Su Yan chuckled dryly without saying anything, then fell silent again.

Zhou Yun smiled helplessly, turned his head, and looked out the window, the smile in his eyes finally fading away.

When they reached the place for dinner, a large table was set, everyone took their seats, the director and photographers were also ready, and the space in front of the dining table was crowded with people, but only the artists were visible in the camera.

Su Yan’s face looked tempted as she said, ”I’m so hungry, I feel like I could eat a whole cow right now!”

Lew Qingqing immediately said, ”Me too, really hungry, director, are there no more tasks? Can we just eat dinner?”

The two girls gazed at the camera with a pleading look.

Pretty girls always have a way of softening hearts when they make that face.

But how could the director be soft-hearted?

”Of course... there’s a task.”

Both Su Yan and Lew Qingqing sighed together, yet didn’t argue.

The men behind also started to complain.

”Director, what about affection? What about your love for us?”

”I’m not filming anymore, I declare this episode to be my last recording.”

”That’s too much!”

...

It’s all acting, all for show, all for the camera effect.

Zhou Yun wasn’t the main character, she just needed to smile helplessly.

Smiling beautifully, like a decorative vase.

”Xiao Yun, come sit next to me.” After Lew Qingqing took her seat, she actively called out, ”Come here.”

Zhou Yun then moved over.

”Lew Qingqing, are you doing this on purpose!” Zhang Haichen suddenly glared, ”I already said I wanted to sit next to Xiao Yun tonight!”

Zhou Yun was taken aback, looking at Zhang Haichen helplessly.

Seeing Lew Qingqing smiling triumphantly, she said, ”Hmph, stop harassing our innocent Xiao Yun!”

Zhou Yun was baffled.

Zhang Haichen sighed deeply, looking gloomy for the camera.

Zhou Yun understood, it was all for the variety show effect.

She cheerfully hugged Lew Qingqing’s arm.

Seeing this, Su Yan’s face looked displeased, and her look towards Zhou Yun even had a hint of disgust.

Of course, this hint of disgust avoided the camera.

Zhou Yun initially did not want to get involved in the feud between Su Yan and Lew Qingqing, but Su Yan’s kick in the afternoon had riled her up.

Regardless of how much of Lew Qingqing’s warmth and closeness in front of the camera was an act, at least Lew Qingqing had never treated her this way.

Zhou Yun was happy to deepen her sisterly bond with Lew Qingqing, just to infuriate Su Yan.

During the following shoot, Zhou Yun and Lew Qingqing became even closer, sometimes linking arms or hugging.

They appeared as affectionate as childhood best friends.
