As soon as they arrived at their destination, it was time to eat.
Although Chen Che had sensed it, he did not expect the situation to be so serious.
Seeing that Lin Xi was sitting alone and did not even take her lunch box, Brother Liu had already arranged the food. Chen Che hesitated to say something, but he saw Brother Liu standing in front of him warily.
“Brother Liu, what are you doing?”
Lin Xi frowned and shouted. Chen Che quickly retreated.
Brother Liu glanced at him and continued to walk towards the nanny van without saying anything.
The corners of Chen Che’s lips curled up as he looked up at Brother Liu. “It’s fine if you target me, but it’s best to settle it in private.”
He pointed around. “So many people have seen it. Even if you don’t care about me, you have to consider how it’d affect her.”
He gestured to Brother Liu. “I don’t believe you didn’t notice that they still have some estrangement towards Little Xi. Do you want her to always be alone when recording the show?”
Brother Liu sneered. “Didn’t you take advantage of the situation?
Chen Che shook his head and said teasingly, “I haven’t yet.”
Brother Liu’s eyes widened. “What did you say?!”
Chen Che took a deep breath and looked at Brother Liu seriously. “Little Xi has only been in the industry for three years and is still filming your company’s own works. Now that you finally have such a rare opportunity to participate in a top-notch variety show and get to know so many popular celebrities, you can’t just think about filming well. It doesn’t matter how private things are.” “Are you guys done?”
A sudden interruption from the side made them both turn to look.
Lin Xi’s eyes widened as she asked, “Can we eat now?”
Brother Liu’s tone froze. Chen Che pointed at him and said to Lin Xi, “Either your company hinted at him, or he took matters into his own hands. His goal is to destroy your image and connections.”
In fact, it was true. With Chen Che beside Lin Xi, the people around her were obviously paying more attention to her.
Even celebrities of similar age like Luo Heng and Jiao Xiaofu came over with a smile. They were surprised to see that Lin Xi had actually prepared her own bento box. The dishes were quite rich.
Brother Liu did not say anything else and turned to leave.
Chen Che watched him leave and said to Lin Xi, “This manager can’t be used anymore. Change him.”
Lin Xi glanced at him. “You’re not a good person either.”
Chen Che shrugged and did not say anything else. Just as he was about to leave…
“Come back-” Lin Xi frowned and pulled him back. “Where are you going again?”
Chen Che smiled. “To eat.”
Lin Xi pointed around. “Isn’t my place enough for you to eat?”
Chen Che nodded. “The aura around you is too strong, and the magnetic field rejects it. I can’t eat it.”
Lin Xi stared at him with her big eyes and scolded in a child-like tone, “Stay here!”
Chen Che could not help but laugh. “Your accent is so strange?”
Lin Xi also held back her laughter and glared at him, but in fact, there was probably no need to say anything.
Brother Liu was depressed, so he naturally could not say anything else.
He leaned against the nanny van and hugged his shoulders tightly as he watched Luo Heng and Jiao Xiaofu walk forward.
“There’s actually roast duck and roasted chicken?!”
Luo Heng smiled and teased, “You prepared the lunchbox yourself? A beauty actually eats such greasy food?”
A smile appeared on Lin Xi’s face, but Chen Che’s expression froze. He reached out to put away the thermos box.
“No…” Luo Heng hurriedly stopped him and smiled at Chen Che. “What does this have to do with you? It’s not your lunch box.”
Jiao Xiaofu couldn’t help but laugh.
Chen Che frowned and looked at Luo Heng. “Is the King of Popularity smashing other people’s pot like this?”
“Haha!” Jiao Xiaofu and Lin Xi looked at each other and smiled.
“Flow Heavenly King…” The two of them were still discussing.
Luo Heng looked at Chen Che and said helplessly, “Continue to defame me.”
Chen Che gestured for Luo Heng to calm down and said, “I’m praising you. Since you’re eating someone else’s food, you have to say something good, right?”
Luo Heng looked at Lin Xi curiously. “Say something? What do you like to hear?”
Lin Xi waved her hand. “It’s okay. Eat whatever you want.”
Chen Che sighed helplessly. “He’s a popular idol and even broke the Guinness Book of Records. He cheated people with food and drinks with just his face? He can’t even speak?!”
“Haha!” Jiao Xiaofu laughed so hard that she leaned against Lin Xi.
Lin Xi also pursed her lips and smiled. She looked at Chen Che. “Maybe you don’t know how to say it.”
Luo Heng nodded. “That’s right. Teach me. It’s enough to rely on my face. I don’t even have the chance to move my mouth.”
Chen Che smiled and said, “Yes, you can rely on your face to farm for the rest of your life.”
Jiao Xiaofu stuck her head out and looked at Luo Heng. “He said you’re thick-skinned.”
The few of them chatted happily. Not long after, Luo Heng and Jiao Xiaofu left.
Chen Che and Lin Xi were left behind.
Actually, this was enough.
Lin Xi was no longer misunderstood as being special. Her company also wanted to give the production team an attitude, it wasn’t meant to target others.
It was originally a beautiful thing to be so calm.
However, the fickleness of fate always made people feel suddenly emotional.
Who could say who was right and who was wrong?
However, since it had happened, he had to face it bravely.
Chen Che did not expect to encounter such trouble at that time. Thinking back, he could not help but sigh at fate’s teasing.
“Are you completely shameless?”
After Luo Heng and Jiao Xiaofu left, Brother Liu came over to provoke them again.
Chen Che glanced at Brother Liu coldly but did not say anything.
However, Lin Xi was furious. She glared at Brother Liu. “Who are you talking about?!”
Brother Liu glared at Chen Che. “If you don’t fall out with me, are you planning to continue being a follower?”
Chen Che glanced at Brother Liu and winked at Lin Xi with a smile. He spat out the meatball in his mouth and turned to leave.
“Chen Che!” Lin Xi quickly pulled him back.
He turned around and said to Brother Liu, “Brother Liu, can you go back to the nanny van?”
Brother Liu widened his eyes in surprise. “You’re chasing me away?”
Lin Xi frowned. “I asked him to stay!”
Brother Liu’s eyes widened in anger. ”1 haven’t said anything about you…”
“Lower your voice!” Chen Che’s expression was ugly. He turned around and pushed Brother Liu towards the nanny van.
However, this is no longer a private conversation.
The surrounding people looked sideways. Brother Liu’s words were already quite loud.
Especially Zhang Enyi and Zhao Chao, who looked over in confusion.
Brother Liu did not care at all. He broke free from Chen Che and said angrily, “Are you going to attack? Have you forgotten what happened at the airport last time, or do you want to continue riding on Little Xi’s popularity? Now, you even want to ride on his coattails. I guess you’ll definitely swallow him in the future!”
“I… F*ck!”
Chen Che looked around nervously, but he suddenly sighed.
Because Zhao Chao had already walked over, Zhang Enyi’s assistant also went forward. The other guests also looked over curiously.
Jin Song, Shen Hong, Luo Heng, Chu Feiyun, and the others also looked over.
“Chen Che, what happened?” Zhao Chao walked forward.
Chen Che smiled mockingly and stared at Brother Liu.
He sighed softly. Before he left, he looked straight at Brother Liu. Brother Liu returned his gaze.
“Seriously.” The corners of Chen Che’s mouth curled up. He gestured to Brother Liu. “You’re an idiot.”
Brother Liu’s expression was ugly and he was about to flare up. Chen Che waved his hand. “But I’m not scolding you. I’m stating the truth.”
Chen Che frowned. “As an outsider, I chose to keep a low profile for her image, but you want to blow things up?”
He pointed at Lin Xi. “Are you her manager? Or an anti-fan? A high-level anti-fan?”
With that, Chen Che pulled Lin Xi away.
Brother Liu tried to stop him, and Zhao Chao walked towards Chen Che.
The director’s assistant caught Brother Liu..
