Su Lingwei and Gu Feiyang walked into Guoxiangyuan Restaurant together and saw a man and a woman sitting in the lobby.
Su Lingwei recognized both of them even if she turned into ashes.
The man was Lin Shaoyang, the young master of the Lin family’s real estate, famous in Rong City as a playboy, a dandy, changing women as quickly as changing clothes.
But it was this man, known for his playboy nature, who ended up falling into the hands of the woman sitting across from him.
Yes, it was the woman in front of him, Xu Jingwen, who looked gentle and weak, with long black hair, light makeup, a faint smile on her face, appearing kind and pure. She was the female protagonist of this novel, who had many pursuers at the level of big shots and eventually captivated the male protagonist of the novel, Xiao Zhenyu.
In the novel, Xu Jingwen was just a small transparent figure in the entertainment circle, with average acting skills and poor resources, often playing minor roles.
However, she looked very pure and virtuous, easily deceiving people.
Introduced by her agent, she often frequented various banquets and parties, where she met some wealthy second-generation gentlemen.
Of course, she originally harbored the idea of marrying into a wealthy family.
Lin Shaoyang met Xu Jingwen at a party and was initially attracted by her pure and virtuous appearance. He spent a lot of money pursuing her, sending her flowers, jewelry, and handbags.
But Xu Jingwen always pretended to be indifferent to his efforts, refusing to accept the gifts he sent.
Because of this, Lin Shaoyang felt that she was different from those flashy and cheap women outside, and he became more infatuated with her.
However, the fact was that Xu Jingwen did not fancy Lin Shaoyang.
She was not looking for a playboy rich second generation like Lin Shaoyang; she wanted a real big shot.
But she kept Lin Shaoyang hanging around as her spare tire, making Lin Shaoyang, who had been mixing in society for so many years, willingly treat her like a princess.
Shortly afterward, Xu Jingwen would meet Xiao Zhenyu.
Not only was Xiao Zhenyu handsome and wealthy, he also managed such a large company, much stronger than Lin Shaoyang, the wealthy second-generation.
Xu Jingwen used some tactics and means, actively approached Xiao Zhenyu, pretended to be weak and pitiful, sought help from Xiao Zhenyu by saying her work was not going well, and so on.
Xiao Zhenyu was blinded by her pretended strength, courage, innocence, and kindness, and gradually fell in love with her.
Seeing the big fish take the bait, Xu Jingwen was overjoyed in her heart and reluctantly agreed to be with Xiao Zhenyu.
In her previous life, Su Lingwei couldn’t stand it after learning about Xiao Zhenyu and Xu Jingwen’s affair.
She desperately started to make trouble for Xu Jingwen, using the Su family’s connections to suppress Xu Jingwen, making her suffer a lot.
When Xu Jingwen was wronged on the set, she didn’t cry in front of Xiao Zhenyu.
Instead, she went to Lin Shaoyang and cried there, asking Lin Shaoyang to promise not to talk about these things.
After learning that Xu Jingwen had switched to Xiao Zhenyu, Lin Shaoyang not only didn’t get angry with her but also wholeheartedly sided with her. He felt that she was not easy.
In his heart, she was a kind and pure little fairy.
She was bullied by that malicious Su Lingwei, and even her beloved acting career was about to be ruined.
He couldn’t bear to see his beloved suffer; he wanted to help her.
Lin Shaoyang, who was possessed by evil, began to deal with Su Lingwei and the Su family.
His methods were extremely ruthless, as if he wanted to crush the Su family into the mud.
This caused Jiahe Entertainment, which was already on the brink of collapse, to deteriorate even further and quickly go bankrupt.
Thinking of the miserable situation of the Su family in her past life after their bankruptcy, Su Lingwei felt a sharp pain in her heart. Her father’s condition deteriorated rapidly and he passed away after a few days.
In this life, Su Lingwei had no good feelings towards Xu Jingwen and everyone around her. She preferred to stay as far away as possible and never get involved with them again.
Gu Feiyang noticed that Su Lingwei suddenly stopped walking and stared straight ahead, so he couldn’t help but ask, “What’s wrong?”
Su Lingwei snapped out of her thoughts, met Gu Feiyang’s concerned gaze, and felt her heart settle slightly.
She quickly shook her head and said, “It’s nothing.”
That’s what she told herself in her heart: it’s nothing.
This wasn’t her past life anymore.
Although she was just a supporting character in the book, she had been reborn.
She wouldn’t make the same mistakes as in her past life as long as she didn’t deal with the idiot male lead and the scheming female lead.
Seeing her say it was nothing, Gu Feiyang didn’t continue to ask. He smiled and said, “The private room I reserved is inside. Let’s go in.”
Su Lingwei nodded. “Okay.”
Although they were eating in the same restaurant as the scheming female lead, they were in different places.
The female lead was in the lobby, while Su Lingwei and Gu Feiyang were going to a private room.
There shouldn’t be any connection between them.
Thinking this, Su Lingwei quickened her pace to keep up with Gu Feiyang and entered the private room safely.
After entering the private room without incident, Gu Feiyang pulled out a chair for Su Lingwei to sit down.
He then sat down next to her.
The waiter brought the menu for them to order. Gu Feiyang handed the menu to Su Lingwei and said, “You choose.”
Su Lingwei opened the menu and ordered a boiled fish and a seafood soup. Gu Feiyang looked at it and added, “Let’s also have a tomato and egg dish and fish-flavored eggplant.”
“These are dishes you like,” Gu Feiyang said with a smile when he met Su Lingwei’s gaze.
Su Lingwei’s heart fluttered slightly. Gu Feiyang was allergic to eggplant, but even so, after so many years apart, he still remembered what she liked to eat.
He cares.
Su Lingwei looked at Gu Feiyang and said, “Thank you.”
“Don’t mention it,” Gu Feiyang said casually. He then asked if there was anything else Su Lingwei wanted to eat.
Su Lingwei said no, so Gu Feiyang gave the menu to the waiter and ordered the dishes.
The dishes were served quickly.
The two of them ate and talked about work, life, and their experiences over the past few years.
