Chapter 572 - A Somewhat Familiar Face!



Chapter 572: A Somewhat Familiar Face!

While on the way, Jiang Yin tried to get Cloud Seven to talk. The best way to know a person was to observe their appearance and listen to them talk.

At first glance, Jiang Yin believed she had seen Cloud Seven somewhere before. However, she simply could not put her finger on his face.

Screenwriter Cloud Seven was awfully quiet and had not said a word since the initial greeting. Every question Jiang Yin asked was met with a brief “Oh” or “Hm”.

“Mr. Cloud Seven, you sure are the silent type.” Jiang Yin grinned. “My student – her name is Shen Xi – she won’t stop blabbering. You two must be close for her to get you. You guys are the complete opposite of each other.”

Shen Xi thought to herself, ‘It’s not that I don’t want to talk. I’ll blow my cover if I do.’

Her teacher was quick to catch on with that sharp eye and sixth sense of hers. Jiang Yin probably had her suspicions the moment they laid eyes on each other.

Jiang Yin had been making small talks with Shen Xi to find clues from her speech, but Shen Xi was not going to fall for it.

Despite Shen Xi giving the cold shoulder, Jiang Yin was not the least bit discouraged. She kept the conversation going, seemingly unbothered by the lack of response.

In the end, Jiang Yin asked, “Mr. Cloud Seven, aren’t you curious who you’re seeing?”

She could not let Xixi in on it earlier due to the request of the party concerned. However, it was not a secret now to Mr. Cloud Seven since they were about to meet anyway.

Without a word, Shen Xi merely glanced at her.

Jiang Yin was under the impression that nothing was worthy of his attention. Now that Cloud Seven was responsive for a chance, Jiang Yin said with a smile. “Well, you’ll see later.”

Shen Xi, “…”

That was done deliberately!

It must be payback!

Shen Xi was intrigued by the person requesting for her so much so her teacher who kept her nose out of other people’s business got involved.

She had a bad feeling about it. Her intuition was telling her that the person she was meeting might be someone she knew.

The appointment was at Cream of the Crop, the best restaurant in the capital where only members were allowed. Those who dined here were the capital’s most respectable figures.

Jiang Yin was leading the way while Shen Xi followed closely.

Stepping into the restaurant, they were welcomed to the lobby with a classical touch. The restaurant was not designed with an open space, but with individual dining suites. A reservation was required. The waiting area on the ground floor was separated by a partition, and there were already people waiting there.

Shen Xi took a fleeting glance and noticed the Su family was present. Excluding Su Mushi and Su Muxuan, the rest of the Su family – Su Yi, Li Jingran, Su Muyan, and Su Ruowan – was sitting at the left corner of the lobby and chatting away blissfully like one big happy family.

Color washed off Jiang Yin’s complexion as a clear hint of disdain and contempt flickered in her cold eyes.

Li Jingran was the first to spot her. She got up and greeted Ms. Jiang before drawing close to check out the young man standing next to Jiang Yin.

The young man was a hunk, the type who would make it in showbiz. There was a distant air about him but an unapproachable hottie was a hit nowadays.

Su Yi’s eyes lit up at the sight of Shen Xi who was undercover. Since the Su family owned a talent management agency, he tended to keep an eye out for good talent.

Nevertheless, Su Yi crossed out the thought of taking the guy under his wing when he saw him entering the room with Jiang Yin.

Who was he to hit on one of Jiang Yin’s?

Also looking over were Su Muyan and Su Ruowan. They got on their feet to say hello with a smile. No matter what, Jiang Yin was a veteran in the business after all.

Her status as the top stylist in showbiz with the finest fashion resources she held aside, Jiang Yin was also the young lady of the Jiang family. This was a reason alone not to mess with her.

It was best not to get on Jiang Yin’s nerves unless they did not want to be in showbiz anymore. Despite their repulsion and disgust for her, they made sure to keep up with the courteous fa?ade.

Jiang Yin nodded at Li Jingran to return the greeting before arrogantly making a beeline to the elevator with her eyes looking straight ahead.

Stopping in her tracks, Li Jingran’s eyes reflected bitter resentment. Who did the d*mn b*tch think she was to give her that attitude!

Su Ruowan clenched her fists as she stared at Jiang Yin’s back. It suddenly hit her that the young man walking alongside Jiang Yin gave her a familiar sense of revulsion.

Su Muyan furrowed his brow. Instead of looking at Jiang Yin, he kept his eyes on the young man. The sight of the young man made him sick to the stomach!

Shen Xi and Jiang Yin approached the elevator and stood there waiting to go up.

Jiang Yin took a quick look at the person who was also waiting for the elevator. Where had she seen the person before?

Shen Xi recognized the person as Zhou Zhen. Was she not supposed to be in a shoot? Why was she here? One thing was for sure, Zhou Zhen would not be able to make out that it was her in disguise.

Someone walked in the entrance bearing several glasses of bubble tea. Disguised in a mask, sunglasses, and a pulled-down cap, this was the standard outfit for celebrities to be out and about.

The person took large strides into the lobby and seemed to trip over something as he crashed onto the ground in a loud thud.

Following the noise, Zhou Zhen, who was standing next to Shen Xi tumbled right onto the elevator without warning. She let out a cry as she took the fall.

Not one to abandon the damsel in distress, Shen Xi went ahead to grab her by the arm.

White as a sheet, the unnerved Zhou Zhen found her balance and turned to look at her knight in shining armor. She was lost in the young man’s charms for a moment before expressing her gratitude with a grin. “Thank you.”

Shen Xi kept to herself and merely bobbed her head. She cordially released her grip and took a step back while examining the fallen soldier in the back by the corner of her eyes.

The person was covered in bubble tea with tapioca balls and coconut bits; it was nothing less than a mess. His chin was even bleeding. It was none other than Su Mushi.

Tough luck!

Served him right!

Shen Xi was amused by the scene. Well, at least the trip was not in vain.

Su Ruowan was first to run to Su Mushi’s side. Worry painted her eyes red as she helped him up.

With a frown, Su Mushi turned his gaze to the elevator as the doors opened and those waiting had gone in.

He caught a glimpse of Zhou Zhen’s face as the elevator doors were closing.

His pupils dilated.

That face.

That face was somewhat familiar!

Inside the elevator, Zhou Zhen was secretly peeping at a man for once. In the past, she would go at any man without a second thought.

However, the young man here gave her a different vibe. He was attentive and a perfect gentleman as pure as the driven snow. He was nothing like all the men she had been with. Although Zhou Zhen was tempted to chat him up and get his number, she was afraid that her actions were deemed sacrilege to him.
