Shattered by Fate, Restored by Truth

Chapter 654: Chance Encounter

Su Yao felt complicated and uncomfortable, and Wanxin, standing beside her, wasn’t feeling any better.

Wanxin felt like she was a one thousand watt light bulb, thinking to herself, why is she sitting here when Grandpa is having dinner with his grandson and his girlfriend?

So she endured for a while and then made an excuse to go to the restroom and slipped away.

As soon as she stepped out, Su Yao followed suit using the same reason. Standing in the corridor, they looked at each other with faces showing their disillusionment.

"Lu Ci didn’t also call Fu Shihan, did he?" Su Yao whispered, "What if Fu Shihan also comes to join the crowd later? What then?"

"Headache."

"What if Lu Ci lied to his grandpa saying I will definitely marry him? What then?"

Suddenly remembering this, Su Yao, fearing Lu Ci might be spouting nonsense to Mr. Lu inside, had no choice but to desperately turn around and go back to keep an eye on him.

Wanxin walked slowly towards the restroom, trying to calm her emotions.

She wandered outside for a while, and having no other choice, she headed back.

The door next to the room opened just as she was passing by. Wanxin faced the person coming out, then heard him exclaim in surprise, "Goddess? What are you doing here?"

Wanxin, at a loss for words, looked at him, not knowing what to say.

She remembered this person, the popular idol star Lin Yifan, who had a terrifying number of fans. Hearing him call her goddess made her feel a chill of fear, worried about being heard by his fans and getting attacked by them.

Lin Yifan looked around, then lowered his voice and asked, "Did Brother Han come with you?"

Wanxin shook her head, answering, "I came with Lu Ci."

"?????"

Lin Yifan was stunned by this answer. Inside the room, there was noise and laughter. Today, the crew had come for a meal, many big names from the circle were present, even Fu Shiyi had shown his face for the occasion.

Fu Shiyi sat there, seeing Lin Yifan standing at the door talking, and frowned slightly.

He stood up and walked towards him, pressing down the displeasure in his eyes.

This guy has been in the industry for more than a day or two, how could he still not understand the rules?

Approaching Lin Yifan, she spoke coldly, "If you want to chat, go outside. What does it mean to stand here with the door open? Are you afraid people outside won’t know who’s inside?"

Lin Yifan, reprimanded, nodded with a forced smile, "I just got excited seeing my Goddess."

Goddess?

As far as Fu Shiyi knew, he only had one Goddess, and that was Wanxin.

Fu Shiyi walked a few more steps forward, and upon seeing the person in the corridor, a look of joy flashed in his eyes: "Wanwan? What are you doing here?"

"...It’s a long story."

Fu Shiyi walked out of the room, pushed Lin Yifan back in, and closed the door.

"Did you come here with my brother for dinner? Or with a client?" she curiously asked, "Any plans after dinner? Can I give you a ride home?"

"Neither, and there’s no need for trouble."

Facing her enthusiasm, Wanxin still wasn’t quite accustomed to it and gave a forced smile, saying, "I came with friends, and I’ll go back after eating."

"Friends...do I know them?"

Wanxin hesitated for a moment and nod, feeling there was no need to hide it, so she told the truth.

Fu Shiyi’s reaction was similar to Lin Yifan’s, both surprised. As it had been a long time since she saw Mr. Lu, she decided to go with Wanxin to greet him.
