The Mind-Read Heiress: From Impostor to Family Favorite-Chapter 564 - 303

Wenyan patiently explained to Shen Jingxiu,

"He’s a friend I made during the first project I ever shot, specifically, my first movie. Basically, the first work when I entered the industry. I met him at the open audition."

"He’s really loyal, and whenever someone trash-talked me online, he would stand up for me. After that movie, when I didn’t have other offers, he’d drag me along for cameos."

"Not just back then, even now he doesn’t have much say in the industry, but he still thinks of me when there’s an opportunity, so we’ve always been on good terms."

"I think it’s pretty rare to make true friends in this circle, so we both cherish our friendship."

"I didn’t expect rumors about us to start circulating online again. I won’t say more, I need to reply to my assistant first, and then talk to Wang Che."

Wenyan signaled she was going to hang up, and Shen Jingxiu understood.

He could understand that, as she needed to handle her own matters.

But honestly, Shen Jingxiu was reluctant to hang up; he seemed to have fallen in love with listening to everything about her.

Whether it was the funny or infuriating things she saw on the street or the people and friends she met at work,

he found anything she shared interesting.

Thinking this, Shen Jingxiu suddenly felt warm inside.

It was just the end of a call, after all. There would be other days.

"Okay, you go handle that. Remember to send me a message when you get home, I won’t bother you further."

"Alrighty, bye-bye!"

"Mhm, bye-bye." However, just as he was saying goodbye, Shen Jingxiu spoke up again, "Wait, don’t hang up just yet."

"What’s up?" Wenyan almost hung up the phone.

"It’s late, and you’re alone; I’m still a bit worried. There have been cases in the past of incidents late at night when taking taxis. Share your location with me."

"Ah?" Wenyan chuckled, "Is that really necessary?"

She lowered her voice, not wanting the driver to hear her conversation with Shen Jingxiu.

"This is the city center, and, besides, I should be home in about ten minutes."

"I know you’re in the city center, it’s a short trip, so just share your location for ten minutes, okay?"

"This..." Wenyan paused, and for some reason, she always felt Shen Jingxiu’s tone was a bit odd when he said that, like he was... cajoling a child?

It wasn’t his usual style.

But Wenyan didn’t spend too much time pondering the nuances of Shen Jingxiu’s tone.

She promptly agreed to Shen Jingxiu’s request: "Okay, I’ll turn it on right away. So this time, I’m really hanging up, big brother. You don’t have anything else to tell me, right?"

Shen Jingxiu gave a "hmm" in response: "Not this time."

After hanging up, Wenyan immediately shared her real-time location with Shen Jingxiu.

Then she opened the chat group comprising Qin Yulong, herself, and her assistant.

Indeed, He Xing had tagged her in the chat group because of the incident with Wang Che.

As her agent, Qin Yulong directly gave instructions.

She tagged Wenyan: You don’t need to worry about this, the photos and videos taken don’t show any intimate actions, they won’t stir up much trouble.

Wenyan replied to Qin Yulong: I’ll ask Wang Che first to see what he plans to do.

Qin Yulong: That works.

After that, Wenyan opened the chat with Wang Che.

During her call with Shen Jingxiu, Wang Che had sent her numerous messages.

Wenyan scrolled to the top and started reading them one by one from the top down.

Wang Che: As expected of you, my Yanyan, just watching the opera with you, and you’re trending again, even I got dragged into it.

Wang Che: This pic is nice, has quite the atmosphere.

Wang Che: This one is good too, gotta say the netizens these days really have some photography skills. Way better than me, worth learning from.

Wang Che: Can’t believe we actually have couple fans, they really ship anything.

Wang Che: Holy shit, you definitely don’t know what happened just now. I’m freaking out, my agent actually wants me to ride on your coattails, told me to post something and follow Gu Xiran’s style.

Wang Che: Yanyan, my big Yanyan, where did you go? Why aren’t you replying, got your phone stolen?
