Chapter 194 - Drunk (1/2)

However, despite how weird she looked, so what if she’d had plastic surgery? Given how much money she had, wouldn’t many people follow suit to flatter her?

Zhao Hong and Ling Sheng were next to each other. On Ling Sheng’s left was an investor whose surname was Ma. He was in his forties and he was bald. His beer belly could pop open his suit, and when he smiled, he looked especially vulgar and greasy. He was the second biggest investor of the movie.

Ever since he had seen Ling Sheng, his sleazy gaze had not left her. He had poured her wine, picked up food for her, and started chatting with her.

“I heard that Ms. Ling knows Little Lu. Is that right?” Zhao Hong asked Ling Sheng.

“Yes.” Ling Sheng admitted openly. She had not been aware of Zhao Hong’s background before, but after checking her background, she did not dare say anything carelessly, lest she made a mistake.

“Little Lu told me that the two of you grew up together. You could be considered childhood sweethearts. Why do you want to enter the entertainment circle?” Zhao Hong’s seemingly unintentional question brought their relationship under the spotlight.

The crew members looked down. They had not expected the two of them to be childhood sweethearts. They were not schoolmates who weren’t familiar with each other as Ling Sheng had mentioned.

However, since these childhood sweethearts were strangers now, something big must have happened. She must have been pretending not to know him!

“I like acting.” Ling Sheng thought to herself. She did not know what the woman meant by saying this.

Xiaxia had been watching Ling Sheng and Lu Xianzhi carefully. She noticed that every time the old woman spoke to Sheng Sheng, he would get extremely nervous, as though he was afraid that the old woman would hurt Sheng Sheng.

“Were you and Huo Ci really together some time ago?” Zhao Hong toasted her and touched her glass while smiling at her.

“It was fake news. Senior Huo is my boss.” Ling Sheng took a look at the wine in the glass. The white wine was poured by the man with the surname Ma, who was beside her. Her glass was full of wine, so she took a small sip.
