“That was directed at Xiang Luqi, not you.” Jingsheng said, pausing for a moment. “But will it cause you any trouble?”

“Not really.” After Qiyao denied it, Jingsheng’s expression relaxed visibly.

Unfortunately, Qiyao was sitting in the front passenger seat and didn’t turn to look at Jingsheng, so she didn’t see the change in Jingsheng’s expression.

However, Qiyao really didn’t want to be photographed right now.

She didn’t mind being photographed with Jingsheng, but what was their relationship now?

How were they going to explain that they had been photographed?

Should they say they were just ordinary friends?

However, she knew very well that once gossip was spread, no one would believe that they were just ordinary friends.

Besides, she didn’t want to say that either.

It would seem like she completely ruled out any possibility of a future with Jingsheng.

If she didn’t say anything, would Jingsheng say anything?

Would he say that they were just ordinary friends?

If he said that, did it mean that he actually didn’t have any feelings for her?

Did he really just see her as a friend?

Because the two of them had participated in the variety show together and had worked together for so long, did Jingsheng consider her as a close friend?

If that’s the case, although it might be a bit ostrich-like, Qiyao didn’t want to be photographed even more.

As long as they weren’t photographed, there would be no need to clarify anything.

Without the need to clarify, she wouldn’t have to give up hope. Qiyao didn’t even know when she started to lose control over herself, unable to stay detached even when it came to meals and accommodation. Finally, the two people stopped outside the small courtyard.

This place wasn’t in the city and was quite quiet.

Just by looking at the name, one could tell that it was a private restaurant.

Jingsheng parked the car and they got out.

Qiyao looked at the restaurant curiously.

The strange thing was that Jingsheng’s car was the only car parked outside the restaurant. There were no other cars parked outside.

Looking at the layout of this private restaurant, one could already see the elegance even before entering the door.

A lot of effort was spent on the decorations.

A restaurant like this would never lack customers.

“Is there another parking parking space?” Qiyao asked. “Why isn’t there any other car besides yours? It should be around mealtime by now.”

“This private restaurant uses a reservation system. It can only serve three tables of guests at a time,” Jingsheng said. “And each table has its own private room. This way, you won’t have to worry about being photographed.”

Qiyao was slightly surprised. It turned out that Jingsheng could tell that she didn’t want to be photographed.

However, he probably didn’t know the real reason why she didn’t want to be photographed.

Qiyao didn’t know how to explain.

The two of them entered the main gate. The small courtyard inside was not big, but it was decorated very elegantly.

This made Qiyao a little curious about the owner of this restaurant.

What kind of person would only entertain three tables of guests at a time and even decorate this place in such a quiet and elegant manner as if it was secluded from the world? The details were all meticulous.

“Although the restaurant is not big and only serves three tables a day, it’s quite famous and has a good reputation. Many people make reservations because of its reputation,” Jingsheng smiled and said. “The food in this restaurant tastes very good. I chose this restaurant not only because it’s not easy to be photographed, but also because I guarantee that you’ll be very satisfied with the food ‘

“This shop is so remote. How did you find it?” Qiyao asked curiously.

“Actually, this restaurant is very famous, but you probably haven’t paid much attention to such gourmet information due to your figure management,” Jingsheng smiled and explained. “But I know about it because my sister brought us here. She and Qin Muye like to look for good places to eat everywhere. The two of them had known each other since they were six years old. Later on, they went to elementary school and met Ming Yeqing when they were in first grade.”

“One is from the Ming family, the other from the Qin family, born with everything they need. Although the Tan family couldn’t compare to the Ming and Qin families in terms of family size and heritage, in daily life, we were all more or less the same. The three children usually had a lot of free time and played around.”

“During the holidays, they went on vacations everywhere. When they went to school, they had free time, but they couldn’t go too far. They dug out all the fun and delicious places, not even neglecting the nooks and crannies. This shop was one of the shops they had found when they were searching everywhere in the capital.”

“And it’s a rare shop that they’ve liked for so many years. It means that this shop has always adhered to the quality and hasn’t changed,” Jingsheng explained gently. “That’s why I brought you here to try it.”

They passed through the small courtyard and saw a thin but elegant auntie in her fifties standing at the door.

The other party smiled when she saw them.

“Auntie Lin,” Jingsheng called out with a smile.

“Hey, come in quickly,” Auntie Lin smiled and said. “You said that you brought a friend over for dinner today and wanted the quietest place. I’ve arranged the innermost place for you. You can see the artificial stream in the backyard. There are no buildings behind us, only a nearby mountain. You don’t have to worry about paparazzi or anything in that room.”

Qiyao didn’t dare to take off her mask and hat because she was afraid of bumping into someone on the way to the room.

After following Auntie Lin into the room, Qiyao took off her hat and asked in surprise, “Auntie Lin, did you recognize me?”

“Not really,” Auntie Lin smiled and said. “I’m old, so I don’t know many young people in the entertainment industry. I only found out that Jingsheng was such a famous and talented singer after hearing MO Mo’s introduction. He just told me to arrange a quiet room that wouldn’t be easily seen by others. In addition, seeing that you covered your face so tightly, I guessed that you must be a celebrity too who doesn’t want to be recognized..”
