Hubby's Deep Love Will Never Change-Chapter 1158 Heather of the Other Shore Flower Sea (182)

Heather smiled sweetly, then suddenly reached out to pinch Mo Jun Tian’s cheek, saying with a playful grin, "Don’t worry, little brother, why would I ever hit you? I’m just showing you some love. Be good, alright?"

Mo Jun Tian pursed his lips and meekly nodded.

Qianxun was already laughing so hard she could hardly stand, clutching Gu Liancheng’s arm as she giggled, "Honey, it seems we went overboard worrying—there’s no way anyone would dare bully Sister Wei Wei."

"That’s right," Gu Liancheng said affectionately as he patted Qianxun’s head, "I just need to make sure no one bullies my Qianxun, that’s all."

"Oh..." The other women present were practically green with envy, exclaiming, "Mr. Gu is so good to Mrs. Gu... it’s enough to make people jealous to death!"

Qianxun, still hooked onto Gu Liancheng’s arm, smiled brightly at everyone and said, "Although that’s true, I won’t argue about it, but sorry, everyone—I’m not called Mrs. Gu. I do have a name, you know. I’m Qianxun, a rookie actress. Please guide me well, especially the director—I hope we can work together someday."

"Oh! Of course, of course!" The director was practically beside himself, barely stopping short of raising his glass in salute. "If I ever have the honor of working with Miss Qianxun, it would be my greatest privilege!"

He was beyond eager to cozy up to Gu Liancheng—having Mrs. Gu as a go-between would be the cherry on top!

Gu Liancheng explained, "She’s always been reluctant to be too closely tied to me, worried that her collaborators only choose her because of me, which makes her very insecure. But what can we do now? The wedding’s already public—it’s no secret to the world that you’re my wife. Trying to avoid it is too late now."

"Oh, come on... We just came for a meal, and somehow it’s turned into a full-on ’couple-envy’ parade. What are us poor single folks supposed to do here? Forget the dishes—just serve up some dog food for everyone, okay? Wouldn’t that be more fitting?"

Laughter filled the room, and thanks to Heather’s matchmaking efforts, this meal turned out to be more lively and fun than usual.

"Mr. Nian, I propose a toast to you," Gu Liancheng suddenly stood up.

Nian Shen also stood, raising his glass, "Likewise, Mr. Gu—it’s an honor. I hope we’ll have the chance to collaborate in the future."

"Absolutely."

"Excuse me for a moment, I’ll step out to the restroom," Nian Shen said, momentarily excusing himself.

Heather also stood, leaning in beside him as she said softly, "Let me accompany you."

She was used to seizing opportunities, and to her, the restroom was the perfect chance to get things done. Honestly, she felt a little uneasy.

Jiang Yang, unfazed by the thought of offending big shots, quipped, "Seriously... even going to the restroom requires our Sister Wei Wei’s protection?"

Nian Shen didn’t appear provoked, but he did decline, saying, "It’s fine, I’ll just be a moment."

Not long after Nian Shen left, Jiang Yang also announced he was heading to the restroom.

Qianxun suddenly dashed over to sit beside Heather, occupying the seat where Nian Shen had been, and leaned in close to whisper.

"Sis, don’t you think... this Mr. Nian seems to have some kind of interest in you?"

"You little rascal!" Heather tapped Qianxun’s forehead and said, "What nonsense are you thinking? He already has a girlfriend—what kind of interest could he possibly have in me? Besides, do you think this face of mine wouldn’t scare him off? Miss Qu is way prettier."

"I think you’re beautiful! So what if you have a scar? You’re still stunning!"

"What, are you trying to sweet-talk me into giving you candy?"

"Haha," Qianxun laughed brightly. "But seriously, I really feel he gives off a strange vibe. Don’t you think... his aura is pretty similar to Mr. Li’s?"
