CHAPTER 238: CHAPTER 237: SOMEONE ARRIVED LATER

She didn’t want to keep it a secret any longer. Saying it would make her feel a lot lighter. She didn’t like living this hidden marriage life. Especially lying to people she liked and respected, it was a torment. And since Leng Yan had already told the crew that she was his wife, she didn’t have to keep it a secret anymore.

But the restaurant was too crowded, and she was afraid that her master would directly scream out the name "Ji Wei," causing some unnecessary trouble, so she planned to tell her in the car outside.

"Nuannuan, did something happen?" Lin Xue wiped her mouth with a napkin and looked at her, "If something’s up, just tell me. I might not be able to help with big things, but small ones should be okay."

"Master..." Wen Nuan’s eyes were a bit red. She looked down at the nearly melting ice cream, holding back her tears.

Thinking of leaving in a few days made her really reluctant. No matter where she went in the future, the chance of meeting such a good master was almost zero.

"What’s wrong, Nuannuan? You’re acting very strange today." Lin Xue became more puzzled and stared into Wen Nuan’s eyes.

Wen Nuan shook her head, "Master, if you’re done eating, let’s go. I’ll tell you something in a moment."

As they walked out of the restaurant, the phone rang. It was Tong Xi calling. She quickly answered, "Xixi, have you eaten yet? Were you late this morning? Did Director Weng scold you?"

"Nuannuan, you sound just like my mom today. But, I’ll report everything. I haven’t eaten yet; the scene just finished shooting." Tong Xi sighed helplessly, then chuckled mischievously, "I was late today, but I didn’t get scolded. Do you know why?"

"Why?"

"Because someone was even later than me, haha. Ji Wei, she was almost an hour late, while I was only five minutes late, so I didn’t get scolded. But because she was late, we’re still shooting now. People have been waiting for so long, and some started gossiping, saying she might have found a man last night, exhausted herself too much, and couldn’t get up from bed."

"She was late?" Wen Nuan asked lightly, feeling a surge of bitterness. Ji Wei must have been in the hotel all along, which is why she was so late. She wasn’t finding a man; she was already with a man.

Unfortunately, that man was her husband.

But she didn’t want to tell Tong Xi all this; if she did, Tong Xi would immediately go to Ji Wei to settle accounts.

With furrowed brows, she smiled bitterly. Why think about these things? It only adds to her sadness without any meaning.

"Nuannuan, what’s wrong? Are you upset?" Tong Xi heard something unusual in Wen Nuan’s voice and asked urgently, "Did you quarrel with Leng Yan? Oh dear, you two, finally together in love, should enjoy it."

"We’re fine. He went on a business trip." Wen Nuan rubbed her temples, suppressing the constant bitterness.

"Seems like you’re missing him so badly." Tong Xi laughed over there, "Leng Yan disclosed in front of the crew that you’re his wife, Nuannuan, did you know that? It was a sensation in the crew. Everyone is looking at Ji Wei differently now, haha—"

"Xixi, let’s not talk about it now. My master is waiting for me in the car. We need to hurry and finish a design in the next few days." Wen Nuan noticed Lin Xue looking at her from the car and quickly said.

"Alright then, bye-bye." Tong Xi hung up the phone and walked to the resting area. From today, she planned not to eat lunch, as she was implementing her weight loss plan.

Passing by a special lounge reserved for Ji Wei by the crew, curiosity got the better of her, and Tong Xi stuck out her tongue, made a face, then quietly pushed the door ajar and gazed inside. She was startled, her eyes widening in shock.
