Chapter 465: Chapter 466 The Secret Between Me and Stars (5)
Why did Dong Xiaoye blush more than ever? I clearly felt that the arm that was close to me was emitting a burning temperature, her skin seemed to be melting. At this time, the host added: “Although it is very unfortunate for Mr. Chu to miss the opportunity to have dinner with Lefeng due to the romantic reason. Nevertheless, they have been blessed by Lefeng. Congratulations to both of you. This photo is something for you to commemorate, it’s bound to be a good memory for you two. Next, we decided to re-draw the prize…”
Before the host had finished speaking, the audience cheered joyously. But the organizer was indeed being generous as my withdrawal did not cause Wu Lefeng any trouble.
Just when I was muttering silently, suddenly, the cheers gradually stopped. It turned out that Wu Lefeng had signaled everyone to be quiet. He smiled apologetically to the host, and then said to me: “If Mr. Chu’s girlfriend doesn’t mind, may I invite both of you to dinner.”
Dong Xiaoye’s eyes brightened immediately. A celebrity was not someone that could be seen in person often. Having a meal with a celebrity was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. What’s more, the celebrity took the initiative to invite them? The excitement of Sister Tiger’s heart was written all over her face. Did she forget the most important thing? Today was my date with Liusu, and we were just ordinary good friends, alright…
Wu Lefeng’s move was once again exceeded the host’s expectations. I also found it strange. It was just for a show. So, it didn’t matter who he eat with, right? Why did he have to invite me? If I refuse again, wouldn’t he be humiliated?
I was the type of person who used to overthink too much, especially for things that I couldn’t understand. So I was eager to find something on Wu Lefeng’s face, but I was surprised to find that his kind gaze gently glanced to the side. His gaze was cold as ice for a moment while tender like water for another moment. Two extreme emotions transient instantly, making me stunned for a moment. As I followed his gaze, I saw two women- the frosty-faced Tong Feifei and Mu Rui who frowned.
Who exactly Wu Lefeng was looking at? Obviously, this had nothing to do with me. What I should do now was how to respond to his invitation!
Should we go or not? Go? When I thought of Liusu and Dong Xiaoye’s infatuated and lovesick look whenever they mentioned Wu Lefeng, I was really reluctant of going. Then, not going? I had refused twice Wu Lefeng’s invitations. I’m afraid this time it would be difficult for him to save his face, right? Although it was none of my business that he would lose his face, Liusu and Dong Xiaoye were his fans. If I treated their idol like this, they might have opinions on me…
Once I thought of Liusu, my heart trembled, and I subconsciously turned my head to look for her. Instantly, I broke out in a cold sweat. Liusu who had gone to the bathroom had returned without me knowing. She was sitting on the seat expressionlessly while watching me and Dong Xiaoye on the stage.
Dong Xiaoye stood beside me and naturally felt the trembling of my body. After noticing Liusu, she let out a soft cry and hurriedly hid behind me in embarrassment… It was understandable why she would want to hide. Originally, she was just a tagalong on my date with Liusu, but now she simply usurped the throne and arrogantly became my girlfriend. How could she be worthy of Liusu’s trust? If I were her, I would also find a hole in the ground and hide inside it…
I thought so, but it was clear in my heart that Dong Xiaoye was innocent, and I was inexcusable. I couldn’t confess my relationship with Dong Xiaoye in front of the camera! How was I lucky, clearly I was haunted by bad luck!
“Mr. Chu? Mr. Chu?” When Wu Lefeng saw that I was not answering, he softly called to me twice.
I was taken aback. Once I came back to my senses, I was much calmer, my heart stopped trembling, my legs stopped shaking, and my speech sounded more confident. It had come to this far, what bad luck should I care about? One’s effort was the decisive factor. I wanted Liusu to remember this day forever, and never forget what happened on our first date.
“Can I bring one more person?”
“What?” Wu Lefeng was stunned, thought that I was getting ahead of myself. A hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes, but he was a superb actor and covered it up extremely well. He said with a smile, “Who else?”
I pointed to Liusu who was sitting in the audience and said loudly: “My girlfriend.”
“Who?!” Even though he had won The Best Actor award, he couldn’t help but lose his composure at this moment. He looked at the Dong Xiaoye next to me, and then at Liusu that I pointed out my finger to, his face was in disbelief: “Your girlfriend? ”
“Yes, my girlfriend.”
“Who is it?”
“Liusu!” I saw Liusu trying to hide under the seat, I picked up the microphone and shouted: “Lefeng invited us to dinner. Do you want to go?” I didn’t care whether Wu Lefeng would agree or not. I would just seal the deal first. He was a big shot, so he shouldn’t be so petty and get angry at me. Otherwise, people would think he was afraid that I would eat him out of house and home.
It was blown up. This time the venue had totally blown up by the raucous cheering of the audience. Not to mention the audience’s enthusiasm, even the filmmakers on the stage also began to talk to each other except for Director Hu Yan’s pair of glowing small eyes. Somehow I could probably guess how he felt about it. I was merely an accident, but my ridiculous accident created a more interesting topic for the premiere of his film, which helped promote the film to some extent.
Was it amazing? I thought so too. Three people dating was not normal after all. Anyway, since it was already an abnormal relationship, we might as well evolve it further. Liusu knew my relationship with Dong Xiaoye, and we didn’t need to explain it to anyone we didn’t know. However, I wanted everyone who knew us to know that Liusu was my girlfriend!
I wanted to tell everyone out loud that we were no longer friends. We were a couple!
Perhaps women couldn’t stand this kind of crazy, manly romantic boyfriend. The first thing Liusu did after coming to the stage was to step on my foot really hard. She almost scolded me in a whimpered voice full of embarrassment: “Are you crazy?”
“People only live their life once, if you don’t go crazy for once, wouldn’t that be a waste of life?” I agreed with the words the host just said. Today would be a memory that we would never forget. Today would be our memorable first date.
Dong Xiaoye was beautiful, so was Liusu. One was lively and handsome while the other was cultured and elegant (an illusion created by the dressing). Both had a beauty not inferior to that of Tong Feifei or Mu Rui. When they hugged my left and right arms respectively due to they were being overly nervous, I could even hear piercing curses coming from below the stage.
Envy, not only do they envy me, even I envied myself now. I was being hugged left and right, how could I not enjoy myself at this moment?
The host’s thinking ability was easily eroded by the chemistry of the three of us standing together. He lost in his thought while staring at the two beauties with very different styles yet similar personalities around me. The two girls couldn’t stand his burdensome gaze hiding behind me with shyness and reservedness that nearly suffocated the audience once again. In this situation where there was no one to manage the order, the venue involuntarily returned to silence.
Ignoring the existence of the host, Wu Lefeng asked me again with uncertainty. He pointed to Liusu and asked, “Mr. Chu, this is…”
“My girlfriend.”
He nodded in dismay, then pointed to Dong Xiaoye, “Then, this is…”
I didn’t dare to look at Dong Xiaoye, and said stiffly, “Also my girlfriend.”
“Bigamy——” I didn’t know who in the audience whispered this extremely sensitive word. Although the voice was not loud, it still passed into everyone’s ears in this strange silence. I thought Wu Lefeng would be angry. But neither did he, nor did Mu Rui. Instead, they just looked at me even more surprised.
It’s none of your business whether I have committed bigamy or not? I was rather annoyed, but I didn’t show my emotions on my face. I just said to the audience faintly, “We are not married.”
The law only stipulated that bigamy was not allowed, but it did not stipulate that a man couldn’t have two women at the same time. I knew the people below were definitely not convinced. They must think that not getting married was not an excuse for being fickle. But honestly, what did it have to do with them?
I didn’t care how others condemn me for being immoral. Anyway, Dong Xiaoye and I were not a real couple. Of course, if the other person besides me was not her but Mo Fei, then it would be a different story.
Wu Lefeng was surprised, and asked Liusu with some curiosity and anticipation: “I wonder if this young lady would like to accept my invitation with Mr. Chu.”
Liusu was at a loss for words, I didn’t know if it was the atmosphere or because the person asking was her idol, but she carefully glanced at me before whispering to Wu Lefeng, “I’ll listen to him.”
Wu Lefeng nodded with a smile. His eyes were full of anticipations as he then focused on me.
I really didn’t understand why he was so enthusiastic, even keen, about me, but I had no more reason to refuse, “Thank you Lefeng, it’s our pleasure.”
