Dong Xin Yan still wanted to ask clearly, but Wenwen suddenly ran over, whispering to her, "Sister Xin, soone is looking for you."
At this ti, who would co looking for her?
Dong Xin Yan reflexively lifted her eyes, looking in the direction Wenwen pointed. Standing at the entrance of the set was a man in a crisp suit. He nodded slightly at Dong Xin Yan when he saw her looking.
Dong Xin Yan was slightly stunned, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, why would he co?
Dong Xin Yan couldn’t care less about talking to the director anymore, and hurriedly walked towards the man. As soon as she reached him, before he could greet her, she had already grabbed his arm and pulled him to a secluded corner nearby, glancing around to make sure no one was present. Only then did she slightly relax and look at him, quickly speaking, "Uncle Li, why are you here?"
Uncle Li is Gu Ningyi’s private driver. Although no one here may recognize him, you can never be too careful.
The ambiguous relationship between her and Gu Ningyi was already inexplicable. If people saw Gu Ningyi’s private driver looking for her, she’d really be unable to explain her way out of it.
Uncle Li could be considered an experienced driver for the Gu Family. He was familiar with Dong Xin Yan’s father and had watched Dong Xin Yan grow up, so there was less formality between them. He directly replied, "Xinxin, it’s the young master who asked to pick you up. Didn’t he ntion it to you?"
Gu Ningyi asked him to pick her up? How could that be? She had clearly told him yesterday that she wouldn’t be returning to the villa for a while, and he had agreed.
So Dong Xin Yan’s first instinct was to shake her head, "Impossible, I’ll be staying here for a while, Uncle Li, did you hear wrong?"
Uncle Li frowned but confidently said, "He definitely asked to co pick you up."
"..."
With Uncle Li speaking so assuredly, Dong Xin Yan was montarily speechless.
The two fell silent for a few seconds, then Uncle Li spoke again, suggesting, "Xinxin, why don’t you call the young master and check with him?"
Dong Xin Yan really didn’t want to call Gu Ningyi, but she couldn’t keep stalling with Uncle Li like this. She bit her lip, took out her phone reluctantly.
The number was dialed, and Dong Xin Yan glanced at Uncle Li unconsciously. Uncle Li sensibly walked outside, and Dong Xin Yan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
She didn’t want anyone to see her fawning and flattering Gu Ningyi at all.
The phone rang for quite a while before being answered, Gu Ningyi’s voice carrying its usual coldness, his words minimalistic, "Speak."
Dong Xin Yan’s hand slightly clenched the phone, trying hard to soften her tone as she spoke, "Mr. Gu, um, it’s nothing really. Just now, Uncle Li ca to the set, saying that you sent him to pick up, this... is it..."
She hadn’t managed to say the word "mistaken" before Gu Ningyi directly answered, "I asked him to pick you up."
Dong Xin Yan’s words instantly got stuck in her throat, her eyes widened in disbelief.
Didn’t he just promise her yesterday that she didn’t have to return to the villa? How had he changed his mind today?
Isn’t this just playing with her? Shocked, Dong Xin Yan’s cautious tone faded slightly, reflexively asking, "But, didn’t we agree that I wouldn’t need to go back during this ti, I need to focus on work...?"
To her surprise, her words were once again ruthlessly interrupted as Gu Ningyi only asked back, coolly, "Are you busy?"
