Chapter 85: Chapter 85: The Beginning of the Scandal Zhou Yun shook her head and said, "I don’t know. It’s the first time I’ve heard about it." "Let’s not worry about that for now. Knowing this news, at least we can relax a bit now. He Yong won’t dare to push us as hard as before." Zhou Yun nodded and hummed in agreement. Her phone suddenly buzzed. It was a call from Song Chi. Zhou Yun stood up and went to the side to answer, asking, "Are you calling to gripe about me again?" Song Chi, sounding serious, said, "I’m shooting an advertisement. I’m taking a break to call you. There are two things." Zhou Yun turned serious, "Go ahead." "For the movie ’Heart Inquiry,’ I’ve already spoken to my company and Yuehai Network. You should finalize the contract with us as soon as possible and sign it. I’m afraid if we wait too long, there might be changes." "Okay, Sister Lan said the same. She has already gotten the company’s approval. Should I have her contact Luo Yuhu?" "No, you send me Sister Lan’s WeChat later, and I’ll have someone from Yuehai Network contact her. You guys should deal directly with the people from Yuehai Network." "But isn’t this movie produced by your company? Shouldn’t the signing... be with your company?" "It’s a bit complicated, I’ll explain later," Song Chi said. "Also, I’ve got a time with that person. He just replied that he could meet tonight." Zhou Yun realized that Song Chi was referring to the matter where she was needed to provide cover. "Okay," Zhou Yun said, "No problem, send me the address, and I’ll be there." "Alright." After hanging up, Zhou Yun informed Zhou Lan and then forwarded Zhou Lan’s WeChat to Song Chi. She felt that something was off. Why was it that Song Chi was handling so many things by himself? It was as if he was purposely avoiding Luo Yuhu. In the afternoon, Zhou Yun deliberately changed into a slightly formal dress, put on sunglasses, and prepared to leave. Song Chi called suddenly: "Send me your address. I’ll come to pick you up." Zhou Yun sounded a bit puzzled as she acknowledged. They had previously agreed to meet directly at the restaurant, so why did he suddenly decide to pick her up? Half an hour later, Song Chi said he was downstairs. Zhou Yun went downstairs to the garage, found Song Chi’s car by the license plate, and approached it. She thought Song Chi would be driving himself, but just as she opened the passenger door, she heard Luo Yuhu’s familiar, sarcastic tone, "Miss Zhou, long time no see." Zhou Yun started, looking at Luo Yuhu who was sitting in the passenger seat, not expecting him to be there and was silent for a while. Song Chi was sitting in the back. He opened the door and said, "Come to the back." Zhou Yun closed the passenger door, got into the back seat, and awkwardly made a face at Song Chi. Song Chi’s expression was somewhat complex. "Miss Zhou, didn’t you say before that you didn’t have the slightest inappropriate thoughts about our Mr. Song? It was all just rumors, so why are you getting into Mr. Song’s car now?" Luo Yuhu turned his head, looking at her maliciously. Zhou Yun frowned. "Brother Hu, enough." Song Chi said sternly, "Zhou Yun and I are just friends. Don’t talk nonsense. The dinner tonight is just to discuss work." Luo Yuhu grudgingly pursed his lips. "Anyway, I’m just reminding you. If you’re photographed again, then these rumors about you will indeed become indelible." The driver set off. Zhou Yun took out her cell phone and asked: You’re including Luo Yuhu tonight? Song Chi replied: No, he’s just being cautious, so he followed to see if I was really meeting you tonight. I didn’t expect him to be so distrustful. Upon reading this, Zhou Yun understood. Song Chi needed her to provide a cover, and the person he wanted to hide it from was Luo Yuhu. She asked: What about the driver? Song Chi said: It’s fine. Zhou Yun didn’t fully grasp what Song Chi meant by ’it’s fine.’ Did it mean the driver was trustworthy, or was it fine even if the driver knew? Since Luo Yuhu was sitting in the front, Zhou Yun didn’t feel it was right to ask in detail. After understanding the situation, she turned her phone screen off. She pretended to chat with Song Chi about work. Luo Yuhu got out of the car halfway, and before leaving, he reminded, "Let me know when you go back." Song Chi responded with a hum. After about twenty minutes of driving, they arrived at their destination. It was a place Zhou Yun had never been before, and it seemed less like a restaurant and more like a courtyard. Two men in black suits stood at the entrance, looking like security guards. They seemed to recognize Song Chi. One of them slightly bowed and led them through the gate, down a long corridor. The sun hadn’t set yet, the sunset was splendid, the corridor stretched deep, with rockeries and green plants separating the space. There was also a pond carved out in the middle of the courtyard, which lent an ancient and serene atmosphere to the place. They entered a room with bright lights. One wall was completely carved out, offering a full view of the serene courtyard. The other walls were adorned with calligraphy and ink paintings. A row of curio shelves separated the interior from the entrance. Whether it was the tables, chairs, or cabinets, all decor was done in a modern take on traditional Chinese style, radiating both a sense of antiquity and brightness. "Director Kang is here, let me know in advance, I’ll go to the entrance to receive him," Song Chi instructed the person leading the way. "Okay, Mr. Song." Once the person left, Zhou Yun finally spoke up, asking, "Who exactly are you meeting with tonight? You’re being so secretive." Song Chi said, "Kang Xin, Director Kang." Zhou Yun’s eyes widened. "Director Kang?" Kang Xin was one of the most notable directors in the country, and one of the few who could draw a crowd of movie fans on his own. Zhou Yun was puzzled as to why Song Chi needed her cover to meet Director Kang. Song Chi briefly explained, "The company wants to hire Liang Hengjun, whom they worked with before, while I want to hire Director Kang. They outwardly respect my opinion, but they never actively push forward, so I had to arrange a talk with Director Kang myself. I don’t want them to know before the deal is made." "You want to hire Director Kang for ’Heart Inquiry’?" Zhou Yun asked. "Yes." Zhou Yun roughly understood what was going on. "Okay, don’t worry, I won’t let the news leak from my end." "Besides, it’s good for you to meet the director beforehand since you’ll be acting anyway," Song Chi said. Zhou Yun lit up at the mention. "I will perform well!" "Don’t offend Director Kang." "Get lost." The two waited for about thirty minutes, then someone sent Song Chi a message that Director Kang Xin’s car had arrived. "I’ll go and receive him. Wait here for a bit," said Song Chi. Zhou Yun originally wanted to accompany Song Chi, but at his words, she nodded and agreed. About ten minutes later, Song Chi came back with a man and a woman. Both were familiar faces. The man, needless to say, wore a Chinese-style robe, his eyes kind, exuding a refined gentleness. The woman, with black hair tied back, was dressed in a sharp suit ensemble, wearing light makeup that likely only included filled eyebrows and lipstick. Zhou Yun politely stood up and greeted, "Director Kang, Professor Song." "Oh, you know me?" The woman looked surprised at the beautiful woman before her.
