Sweet Beauty

Chapter 227 - Trouble During The Filming IX

If other guests were sitting next to them, Dai Huian might not have a problem with it. However, the people sitting next to them were all from Xie Cheng's film crew.

Hou Yingyi and Wei Xiaoqing were still there!

Zeng Zhelan looked at Liang Zixuan, who pursed her lips while smiling without saying a word. Knowing that she was very resistant to such a situation, Zeng Zhelan pulled Dai Huian's arm. When she saw Dai Huian turn around, she whispered, "Why don't we go somewhere else?"

Dai Huian felt a little awkward. "I've already deposited five hundred yuan. If we go now, the owner of this restaurant won't return it to me."

Xie Cheng looked sideways at Zeng Zhelan and Dai Huian. He didn't say anything as he just watched. The corner of his mouth hooked into a faint, evil smile. From time to time, he would glance at Liang Zixuan.

Zeng Zhelan gritted her teeth and pulled Dai Huian away. "Then I will compensate you with that five hundred yuan. Let's go somewhere else!"

"Director Dai, what do you mean by this?" When Xie Cheng saw they wanted to leave, he grabbed Dai Huian's hand uneasily.

Dai Huian was so disgusted that she almost vomited. She quietly withdrew her hand and smiled hypocritically. "We just feel that since you're eating here, if we come inside, it seems rude. It's okay, Director Xie, you guys eat."

"Dai Huian!" Xie Cheng's body trembled as he stretched out his hand to stop Dai Huian and the others from leaving, looking unhappy. "I don't think it's rude. You guys have already paid for the meal, now that you see us here, you turned around and left. You obviously don't like me."

It's really hard to get rid of a tiger.

Just like Xie Cheng said, they left now because of him.

Dai Huian, as a newly graduated director, did not dare to offend him.

Liang Zixuan looked at the noisy surroundings and took a deep breath. "Xiao Ian, it's the same no matter where we go. Let's eat here."

Dai Huian knew that Liang Zixuan didn't want to make things difficult for her, but if they went to eat inside, Liang Zixuan would definitely feel uncomfortable. Just as Dai Huian hesitated, Liang Zixuan already lifted her legs and entered first.

Zeng Zhelan and Dai Huian, seeing that Liang Zixuan had entered, could not say anything more, so they followed and sat down at the middle table.

Xie Cheng snickered and walked back to his table.

Wei Xiaoqing gave Xie Cheng a thumbs up from under the table.

He then smiled proudly and whispered, "Has everything been arranged over there?"

Afraid Hou Yingyi heard it, Wei Xiaoqing leaned over Xie Cheng and said in a low voice while the others were fighting over the wine. "It's ready to be arranged. Those who aren't here are all dragged out for a barbecue. They won't be back until 12."

Xie Cheng swept his gaze to all the men at Dai Huian's table. Finally, he held the glass in front of her and said, "Director Dai, it's such a coincidence we met today. Let's have a toast together. If you need anything in the future, don't hesitate to call me."

The waiters were already serving the dishes one by one. Wine and beer were already placed at the corner of the table.

Seeing that Xie Cheng was drinking white wine, Dai Huian thought he would probably go back after finishing his glass.

"Alright, then. I'll toast with Director Xie." Dai Huian stood up, picked up her own glass, and finished her beer with one gulp. "I'm done. Director Xie, it's not fair if I'm the only one who drinks it."

"Hehe ..." Xie Cheng just took a sip and saw the whole table was staring at him. He felt embarrassed and glanced at Liang Zixuan. He decided to end the night quickly so that no one at the table could guess anything.

He raised his glass to the air and waved his hand to his crew. "Everyone, you guys can't just watch your director getting drunk alone, right? Hurry up and lift your glass."

Xie Cheng deliberately glanced at Hou Yingyi and called out, "Yingyi, come and help me drink!"

Hou Yingyi was stunned for a moment and could not react. Wei Xiaoqing immediately pushed him. "Didn't you hear what the director said? Why aren't you rushing?!"

Hou Yingyi glanced at Liang Zixuan and bit his lip. He then raised his glass and stood up.

Dai Huian saw the men in Xie Cheng's crew standing one by one and her heart immediately became uneasy. Not good. Did they have to drink with him too?

Before she could finish her thought, an Assistant Director sat down beside her, persuading her to drink.

Hou Yingyi sat beside Liang Zixuan without saying anything further.

Liang Zixuan silently moved her chair towards Zeng Zhelan.

"Zixuan…" Hou Yingyi took a deep breath and gathered his courage to say to her, "Let me toast you."

"You want to toast? You want our Zixuan toast with you?" Zeng Zhelan looked at Hou Yingyi in disdain. "Who do you think you are?"

With that, Zeng Zhelan stood up and pulled Liang Zixuan up. She swapped seats with her and sat between Hou Yingyi and Liang Zixuan.

Liang Zixuan took some food with her chopsticks. She really wanted to treat Wei Xiaoqing and Hou Yingyi as air, but Wei Xiaoqing's sweet voice kept echoing in her ear.

When Hou Yingyi saw that Liang Zixuan was ignoring him, he sat there drinking on his own. No matter how much she didn't want to look at him, his stinky face always swayed back and forth in her sight.

She was so annoyed!

Liang Zixuan didn't have a good mealtime at all.

Xie Cheng called two more people and asked them to have a drink with Zeng Zhelan and Liang Zixuan.

Xie Cheng was a good card player. He arranged everything perfectly tonight. Whether Liang Zixuan can escape unscathed or not, no one knows.

Everyone in Dai Huian's crew was drinking, except for Liang Zixuan and Zeng Zhelan.

No matter how eloquent the two men next to them were, they were unmoved by their words. They would rather die than drink a single wine!

Hou Yingyi had been rejected, so he felt terrible inside. Now, when he saw a man shamelessly circle around Liang Zixuan to persuade her to drink, he was even more frustrated.

He stood up with the wine in his hand and pulled the man who tried to persuade Liang Zixuan away from her. "I'll drink with you!"

"You're a man, why should I drink with you?" That man drank a little too much and started to lose his mind. He pushed Hou Yingyi aside and went to Liang Zixuan with a sly face.. "Zixuan, don't be so disrespectful. Why don't you have a drink with me?"
