Despite searching the entire set, she hadn’t seen the person she was looking for, which made her doubt whether she had been mistaken earlier.

But she had clearly seen Li Shengxiao standing on the outskirts watching her film!

How could he just disappear…

“Could it really have been my imagination?”

Rong Yan was muttering to herself when Estelle came over, patted her on the shoulder, and said with a smile, “Looking for Mr. Li?”

“He really came?” Rong Yan looked at her.

Estelle was momentarily confused by her question, “He did come, didn’t you see Mr. Li just now?”

She had seen him, but by the time she came out, he was gone.

Estelle could tell what she was thinking and said with a pleased smile, “Mr. Li is waiting for you in the car outside. There are too many people on set; it wouldn’t have been appropriate for him to come find you directly.”

“He’s in the car, which car?”

Estelle pointed toward a less crowded area, “Over there.”

Rong Yan was eager to go over and ask him why he had come, but since Estelle was still there, she felt it would be rude to just leave.

However, Estelle seemed to understand and took the initiative to say, “Since you’ve finished today’s scenes smoothly, you should head back first. If there are any arrangements, I’ll let you know.”

Appreciating her thoughtfulness, Rong Yan replied directly, “Then I’ll be off, Estelle. Call me if there are any arrangements. I’m available 24/7!”

“Pfft.” Estelle rarely laughed aloud but didn’t keep her any longer, “Go ahead.”

“Alright.”

After saying goodbye to Estelle, Rong Yan hurriedly walked in the direction she had indicated.

This was the set’s side exit, which was usually used by the crew members instead of the main or back entrances, so it was less crowded.

Walking along the path, Rong Yan saw the black Cadillac parked at the entrance.

“Miss Rong, good afternoon.” Gu Ming got out of the car to greet her and kindly opened the back door for her, “Please get in the car first.”

“Thank you.”

Rong Yan quickly got into the car in a few strides.

Upon entering the car, she indeed saw the person she had spotted on set!

“Li Shengxiao, is that really you? Why are you on set? I thought I saw wrong earlier.”

The proud and handsome man raised his eyebrows; his dark eyes were bright. She had seen him clearly, even blatantly looking past her co-actor to watch his entire performance?

His gaze lingered on the young woman’s parted lips, his sexy Adam’s apple moving as he spoke, “I was just passing by.”

Gu Ming, sitting in the front, chimed in to explain, “Mr. Li had an appointment nearby and, knowing that Miss Rong was also here, asked me to call your agent. Your agent said you’d be done with filming around this time, so we came to pick you up.”

So that’s what happened. She wondered why Li Shengxiao had come here as if he didn’t have work to do.

“But Mr. Li has an important meeting next, so you might have to wait a bit in his office later, if that’s alright?”

The CEO had come to pick her up personally; needless to say, the plans set for tonight were now up in the air.

Tonight, the CEO would most likely be spending his time with Miss Rong again.

“That’s fine, I can just play with my phone while I wait.” Rong Yan didn’t mind at all and readily agreed.

The car smoothly drove to the Li Group building.

Li Shengxiao had his own private elevator, so Rong Yan didn’t have to worry about being recognized on the way. Using the private elevator and his special passage, they arrived at his office.

It wasn’t Rong Yan’s first time in this office. Li Shengxiao’s office was spacious and bright, minimalist without lacking style, and it boasted a particularly nice view from the window.
