Chapter 9: Another Mr. Gong

During the daytime of these few days, Yan Xi naturally did not have any scenes. Reporters were all around the hotel. Yan Xi could only stay in her room, eating the takeaways while memorizing the script. Her assistant Xiao Qi was with her, acting out scenes with Yan Xi while holding the script. They were rehearsing one of the scenarios that no one knew when would be shot.

At this time, someone knocked on the door. Xiao Qi happily thought that the director’s assistant had come to ask Yan Xi to get ready to shoot. She ran towards the door, but she saw two men in suits through the peephole. They didn’t look like the director’s assistants nor the entertainment reporters.

“Sis…” Xiao Qi looked at Yan Xi, her expression was a little nervous. She asked the people who came: “Can I ask, you are…?”

They said that they were Mr. Gong’s men.

Gong Ding Chen and her, hadn’t they concluded their affair? Why would his men be here to find her? For what purpose?

Xiao Qi naturally knew about the love and hate between Yan Xi and Mr. Gong. At Yan Xi’s signal, she opened the door to let them in. Yan Xi felt alert, but these two people were showing a respectful attitude towards Yan Xi. They told her: “Miss Yan, Mr. Gong invites you to have dinner together at the garden hotel on the rooftop.”

“……” Yan Xi didn’t understand, was it a trap?

The best hotel in this studio city was the Hengdian hotel that Yan Xi was staying in right now. Because this movie was specifically designed for Gong Ding Chen’s beloved Chen Man Xi, he’d already booked the hotel in advance. He gave her all the best things, making Yan Xi look like she’d taken a huge advantage of it.

Yan Xi smiled bitterly, then nodded. Looking at the time on the invitation card, it was about one hour later. After some thoughts, she still opened her wardrobe to pick out a simple but very nice-looking and stylish dress to put on. She did some skincare, then applied a faint makeup.

There were two cards inside the letter of the invitation card. One was the key card towards the garden hotel, which was also the room card. Additionally, there was a black bank card, the meaning behind it was apparent…

Yan Xi successfully entered the rooftop of the garden hotel. Its grandeur was evident. Yan Xi was led to the windowside under the guidance of a waiter in a tuxedo. Gong Yun Ting was already waiting there, looking at her with his lips curled upwards.

When Yan Xi sat down, the waiter presented her with a bouquet of ninety-nine fresh red roses.

Yan Xi noticed that there were no other guests around besides her and Gong Yun Ting. She decided to be straightforward: “Second Mr. Gong, why are you looking for me?”

Gong Yun Ting was straightforward as well: “I don’t like others to call me that.”

Mr. Gong, second Mr. Gong, why should he be placed under him?

A chilly glow flashed across Gong Yun Ting’s eyes, which disappeared following his sneer. He changed into a more casual position and told Yan Xi: “Miss Yan can call me Yun Ting, or Yolande.”

Yan Xi nodded, but she didn’t say anything. She grabbed the glass and drank a mouthful of water.

Unexpectedly, Gong Yun Ting looked at her, and blurted out: “Become my woman.”

“Cough cough…!” Yan Xi couldn’t hold in her discomfort as she was choked by the water. She suspected that she heard it wrong: “What?”

“Become my woman.” Gong Yun Ting was still smiling. He thought that this woman in front of him was truly amusing, and she was also unexpectedly cute. He said: “I can also give you the resources that Gong Ding Chen gave to Chen Man Xi. Even those resources that Gong Ding Chen can’t give Chen Man Xi, I can also give it to you.”

Gong family’s capability couldn’t be underestimated, no matter if it was Gong Ding Chen or Gong Yun Ting.

Yan Xi didn’t understand: “Why me?”

Gong Yun Ting had a long reputation as a playboy. He didn’t lack celebrities, models, white, pretty women with long legs, just any of them would have a better reputation than Yan Xi, and they even had a better future than her.

“Besides, I heard…” Yan Xi looked at Gong Yun Ting, his brows looked quite similar to Gong Ding Chen, but there were more mischief in his eyes while Gong Ding Chen looked colder, or to say, the friendliest way he looked at her was simply cold. Yan Xi said: “The female actress Sun Xiao Xiao is your rumored girlfriend.”

“It’s just a rumor.” Gong Yun Ting said.

“How about me?” Yan Xi asked.

“You are a smart person.” Gong Yun Ting said: “I don’t like stupid women.”

Gong Yun Ting was hinting something, so Yan Xi didn’t talk anymore. Smart women knew what shouldn’t be asked. Gong Yun Ting was very satisfied, he knew he didn’t pick the wrong person. His delicate fingers swayed the red wine glass in his hands. Gong Yun Ting said blatantly: “When that maid was slapping you, I saw that your foolish, small assistant was secretly recording it.”

He was referring to that maid who slapped her, the female actress Li Miao Dan.

“……” He saw it? Yan XI was very surprised. He said that she was a smart woman, was it because of this?

Gong Yun Ting said: “You have the desire, I have the resources, you want to be popular, it’s that simple.”

Yan Xi roughly understood it. She smiled lightly: “Mr. Gong is not a simple man.”

Gong Ding Chen, Gong Yun Ting, two Mr. Gongs.

Gong Yun Ting’s expression was obviously unhappy, he corrected Yan Xi: “Call me Yun Ting, or Yolande.”

“Yun Ting.” Yan Xi obeyed, then clicked glasses with him, leaving a faint lipstick mark on the glass. It was best that both of them took what they wanted. She put that hotel card on the table, then pushed it to Gong Yun Ting: “Tonight, come and fetch me on your own…”

There was already nothing else she could lose. If she didn’t take a step forward, there would only be a cliff behind her. Even if her future was full of trials and challenges, if she got even a single chance to start over, she would give it all she had. Since the worst that could happen was just her breaking into pieces.
