Chapter 1465: Chapter 1369: Gu Qichen Mocks Her

Lu Haotian’s heart gradually sank.

Xia Yangyang already had something on her mind, or perhaps, her own ideas.

This, he was certain of.

After all, they had known each other for so many years, and no one understood Xia Yangyang’s little gestures better than him.

Not long after Xia Yangyang left the studio, she ran into Gu Qichen.

For some inexplicable reason, a pang of guilt surged in Xia Yangyang’s heart.

Seeing Gu Qichen, she even thought of turning around and leaving.

But obviously, it was too late to avoid him now.

Gu Qichen was already walking in her direction.

When Xia Yangyang had just left, Gu Qichen happened to be away from his seat.

So, Gu Qichen had no idea where she had gone.

Now that she thought about it, perhaps he had come looking for her.

Xia Yangyang felt a wave of relief.

Luckily, she had stepped out earlier.

If she had been a few minutes late...

Gu Qichen might have gone to the studio.

If that had happened, running into her and Lu Haotian inside, would he have assumed they were secretly meeting?

But then again, why did she care so much about Gu Qichen’s thoughts right now?

Gu Qichen had already reached Xia Yangyang.

Gu Qichen asked, "Where did you go?"

Xia Yangyang smiled and quickly said, "I just went to the studio. Director Xie asked to talk to me about something."

Gu Qichen’s gaze fell steadily on Xia Yangyang’s face.

Xia Yangyang was not good at lying, and in order to appear guiltless...

She forced herself to meet Gu Qichen’s gaze.

Was it because there were no lights around?

She felt that Gu Qichen’s eyes were as still as water, carrying an unfathomable depth.

There was no emotion on his face, no expression to discern.

His demeanor was like wearing the camouflage he was so skilled at.

But at times like this, Xia Yangyang always felt a sense of foreboding.

Standing in front of him, every second was a torment for her.

After a long time, Gu Qichen finally responded with a faint "Oh." He asked, "What did he say to you?"

Xia Yangyang felt her heart tighten. "Nothing much, just some notes about the filming process."

Xia Yangyang felt she could no longer fabricate anything.

Could Gu Qichen have figured something out?

But Xia Yangyang still felt it was impossible.

There was no way he could know Lu Haotian was with the crew now, was there?

Gu Qichen’s gaze was still fixed on Xia Yangyang’s face, sharp as if it were a flying dagger.

But fortunately, Gu Qichen didn’t pursue it further.

He merely said indifferently, "Let’s go. The banquet is about to end, and we need to take the group photo."

Gu Qichen turned and left.

Xia Yangyang stood dazed for a moment before quickly following behind him.

When Xia Yangyang stepped into the tulou again...

She finally understood why Gu Qichen’s gaze had felt like a flying dagger.

Because Director Xie was right there, laughing and chatting with everyone.

Director Xie seemed to have had too much to drink, acting a bit differently from his usual self.

Many people surrounded him, talking and joking.

Everyone went to offer him drinks, and Director Xie accepted them all.

No wonder when she had just said that Director Xie called her over, Gu Qichen’s expression had appeared so inscrutable.

Xia Yangyang thought she had crafted an impeccable excuse, only to realize she had chosen the flimsiest one.

However, why hadn’t Gu Qichen exposed her?

Xia Yangyang felt conflicted.

But Gu Qichen didn’t seem to care much.

He handed her a glass of juice and said, "Let’s go toast to the director as well."

Xia Yangyang let out an "Oh."

Yet she still felt that what Gu Qichen was doing was clearly mocking her.

Because Gu Qichen had never been in the habit of toasting anyone before.
