The atmosphere was good. After the wine was served, everyone raised their glasses to celebrate.

Although they only drank a little, soon, Xinyue and Xiao Qing were still a little drunk.

Xinyue’s and Tian Ke’s assistants also came over to remind everyone not to drink anymore.

“We’re almost done eating. Let’s disperse.” Qiao Weiyang stood up.

“Okay, let’s meet again next time.” Luo Lin reached out and helped Xinyue up.

Xiao Qing came alone, so Qiao Weiyang supported her.

The assistants led the artistes out.

Qiao Weiyang specially instructed Xinyue’s assistant, “Take good care of her. Call me if there’s anything and tell her to drink more water.”

“I’m not really drunk. I’m just a little drunk,” Xinyue said clearly. “I’m fine.”

After everyone dispersed, Qiao Weiyang and Xiao Qing went to Qiao Weiyang’s car.

Before they could reach the car, they saw a man standing not far away. He was leaning against his car, looking lonely under the dim lights.

“President Shen?” Qiao Weiyang saw clearly that it was Shen Mubei.

Xiao Qing subconsciously took a step back. She hadn’t seen him for a long time. The familiar yet unfamiliar feeling made her not want to get close. “I’m here to pick up Xiao Qing,” Shen Mubei said as he walked over.

“I’ll go home with Weiyang.”

“Xiao Qing, let’s talk.” Shen Mubei was very determined. He was not swayed by her words.

Xiao Qing held Qiao Weiyang’s arm, avoiding her.

Qiao Weiyang tilted her head and asked her, “Do you want me to accompany you home or do you want to talk to President Shen?”

No matter what, she was on her side.

“Xiao Qing.” There was a rare hint of compromise in Shen Mubei’s voice.

Xiao Qing pursed her lips slightly. “I’ll talk to him first.”

“Then I’ll wait for you.’

“No, no, no. You can go back first. It’s too late.” Xiao Qing shook her head. “Let’s contact each other by phone.”

Qiao Weiyang glanced at Shen Mubei before getting into the car.

Xiao Qing got into Shen Mubei’s car. Because she had drunk a little, her mind was still dizzy, and her cheeks could not help but blush.

The space in the car was very small, and the man’s presence was extremely strong.

Just thinking about it made Xiao Qing want to escape.

Shen Mubei did not start the car. He placed his hands on the steering wheel. His expression was similar to usual—cold and distant.

Xiao Qing didn’t look at him, afraid that she wouldn’t be able to control herself.

She had proven long ago that she was not immune to him. She did not want to make mistakes again and again.

“President Shen, if you have anything to say, just say it.” She finally said this in a steady tone that she could control.

Shen Mubei let go of his hands and said calmly, “Xiao Qing, it’s not true that the only reason I wanted to marry you back then was because of the child.” Xiao Qing was stunned and caught off guard. Her expression was frozen.

She wanted to turn her head to see his expression when he said this, but she still maintained her original posture and did not turn her head.

“It’s just because of you. So even if you don’t have a child now, it won’t stop me from continuing to have that idea.”

Shen Mubei’s words came word by word in a manner and tone that she was unfamiliar with.

The words poured into her ears, making her react a little to understand what he meant.

Xiao Qing pinched her other hand with her fingers and felt the wave of pain. She was not dreaming.

She was also sure that she was not drunk.

Looking at Shen Mubei, she suddenly had an illusion. For a moment, she did not know how to respond to him.

“What about you?”

Xiao Qing only heard Shen Mubei ask this. Her mind was in a mess. “What do you mean?”

Shen Mubei pressed the tip of his tongue against his cheek. “What about you? Are you willing to consider starting over with me?”

“I…” Xiao Qing’s mind went blank, and she couldn’t find the right words to respond.

Her lips felt hot, and Shen Mubei pressed his fingers on them.

“You don’t have to answer me for the time being. Think about it first.” He retracted his hand at some point. When Xiao Qing came back to her senses, the car had already driven out and was heading to her house.

It was not until Shen Mubei had dropped her off at her house and left that Xiao Qing realized what everything meant.

Her face flushed belatedly, feeling burning hot.

Mrs. Xiao heard the commotion and came over. Seeing Xiao Qing’s red face, she complained, “What’s going on? Why did you drink so much? Look at your face. How drunk are you?”

“I’m not drunk.” Xiao Qing rushed into the room and clicked on Qiao Weiyang’s chat box.

In Meng Yihao’s office.

Qiao Weiyang sat opposite him, picked up her coffee, and took a sip.

“Miss Qiao, thank you so much.” Meng Yihao smiled and said, “Xinyue and Tian Ke have already received a lot of resources. Your promotion of them has indeed exceeded my expectations.”

“I’m just doing my job.” Qiao Weiyang didn’t take the credit. “Even without me, Xinyue and Tian Ke’s personal abilities wouldn’t have been buried.”

“Even so, it’s still a little metaphysical to be famous in the entertainment industry. By the way, Xinyue’s previous two upcoming dramas are now being bought at a high price by platforms and are about to be scheduled. Tian Ke’s upcoming drama is also being well-received.”

This time, Meng Yihao’s investment in the artistes could be said to be a thousand times better.

Even he did not expect the effect to be so good.

Initially, he had thought it would be excellent enough if the artistes he arranged to join I Am An Actor could make a name for themselves.

Qiao Weiyang asked, “Mr. Meng, may I ask what Xinyue’s future plans are?”

“I know that you’ve already become friends with Xinyue. To be honest, Xinyue’s qualifications are very good. She has a chance of standing out in the future and entering the A-list. Therefore, the company’s future plans for her won’t be short-term. The company won’t take advantage of her popularity. We’ll filter out resources that are more suitable for her and give her a chance to shine brighter.”

“That’s for the best,” Qiao Weiyang said with relief.

Meng Yihao still wanted to continue working with Qiao Weiyang, so he naturally wouldn’t interfere in Xinyue’s matters. Moreover, Xinyue’s popularity soared after this competition. She might become the next hot topic. Qiao Weiyang stood up and left. “Mr. Meng, I’ll leave first.”

“Okay, I’ll send you off.” Meng Yihao sent Qiao Weiyang out of the office.

After Qiao Weiyang came out, she saw Xinyue in the hall.

Xinyue already had two assistants by her side. It could be seen how determined Meng Yihao was to nurture her.

“Sister Weiyang.” Xinyue ran over.. “Can I talk to you in the car?”
