Quick Transmigration: Why did you provoke him? He's love-struck!

Chapter 561 Keeping a Canary in Captivity (40)

"How pitiful." Yan Zhen looked down at Xiao Yun. "With your background and experiences, you'd be a leading lady in a romance novel."

Xiao Yun took it as a joke and took a towel to dry Yan Zhen's feet.

After wiping his feet, Xiao Yun picked up the water to pour it out when Yan Zhen's voice came from behind him: "You'll sleep here tonight."

"……it is good."

The next morning, Xiao Yun was woken up by the cold.

He opened his eyes and realized that the blanket he had covered himself with before going to sleep had been rolled up by Yan Zhen next to him. She was wrapped up in the blanket like a Swiss roll and was fast asleep.

Xiao Yun sat up helplessly, took out his phone from under his pillow and checked the time: five o'clock in the morning.

He usually gets up at 6:40 and leaves for the film set at 7:00 to get his makeup done.

It was still early, so Xiao Yun didn't plan to go back to sleep. Instead, she tiptoed out of bed, washed up, and went out.

The film crew was located in a remote area with limited facilities for food, lodging, and transportation. Considering that Yan Zhen might not be used to the food, Xiao Yun borrowed a car from the film crew after leaving the hotel and went to a landmark Cantonese teahouse 30 kilometers away to buy breakfast.

It took Xiao Yun more than an hour to go back and forth. When she returned to the hotel with her things and took the elevator upstairs, her phone beeped with a WeChat notification.

He opened it and saw that it was sent by a colleague from the film crew.

"Xiao Yun, good news! Look at this!"

A link is attached below.

After stepping out of the elevator, Xiao Yun clicked on the link and saw an apology statement from the program team that his father had brought to "interview" him.

In the statement, the program team first clarified the truth about Xiao Yun's "failure to support his father," then stated that the program team was misled by Xiao's father and had rashly gone to interview him. Finally, the program team sincerely apologized to Xiao Yun.

The statement immediately became a trending topic on Weibo.

At the same time, several accounts that came to the film set to livestream and gain popularity were also banned.

After this smooth little combo, Xiao Yun immediately realized that it was Yan Zhen's doing.

No one but her would go to such lengths for themselves.

Xiao's father was sent far away abroad and it was estimated that he would not return for at least three years. His work issues were also resolved, and the two problems that had been troubling Xiao Yun for several days were suddenly solved, making him feel instantly relieved.

For the first time, he had the thought, "It feels so good to be clinging to someone's coattails."

As Xiao Yun walked towards the hotel suite, her steps became lighter.

Back in the guest room, Yan Zhen was still asleep.

Xiao Yun didn't disturb her. After putting down the breakfast, he tidied up and left as it was almost time for work.

When the elevator is going down, it stops on the next floor.

The elevator doors opened, and Xiao Yun met several actresses outside the elevator, including Yan Jing.

"Good morning, Teacher Xiao." Yan Jing greeted Xiao Yun as she entered the elevator.

"……morning."

Yan Jing noticed that his expression was off and he seemed a little nervous. Remembering something, she asked in surprise, "Teacher Xiao, don't you live on the fourth floor?"

The hotel has seven floors. The third floor is for the film crew, the fourth floor is for the male actors, and the fifth floor is for the female actors. How did Xiao Yun end up in the descending elevator?

Xiao Yun's eyes flickered: "I have a friend who lives upstairs."

"A friend?" Yan Jing asked. "Is he here to visit the set?"

"...No." Xiao Yun changed the subject. "I'm going to buy coffee. Do you want to get one?"

Yan Jing's attention was immediately diverted: "Yes! Get me an iced Americano."

"I'd like a hot latte."

"Teacher Xiao, I'd like an iced Americano too."

Xiao Yun wrote them down: "Okay."

Stepping out of the elevator, watching the actresses noisily heading towards the hotel restaurant, Xiao Yun let out a silent sigh.

Yan Zhen slept until 10 a.m.

When she woke up, Xiao Yun had already left, and she was all alone in the room.

She slept for eight or nine hours straight, so soundly that she didn't even dream. She felt like all the bones in her body were melting.

After getting up, Yan Zhen went to the living room and saw a plate of washed fruit on the dining table with a sticky note on it.

Xiao Yun's handwriting is crooked and not very nice: The hotel does not have heating equipment, and breakfast is placed in the hotel restaurant. After you wake up, call the front desk and say that breakfast is for room 708, and they will bring the heated breakfast up.

Yan Zhen raised an eyebrow.

She called the hotel front desk according to the instructions on the sticky note, and when she finished washing up, the hotel staff brought her breakfast.

More than a dozen takeout containers bearing the logo of a certain restaurant; each item was small in quantity, but all contained her favorite flavors.

While eating, Yan Zhen contacted his bodyguard and asked him to prepare a car so they could head to the Yan Group's factory in X province later.

After inspecting the factory for most of the day, it was already dark outside when Yan Zhen walked out.

Just as she got into the car, Xiao Yun called her, asking cautiously, "Are you not at the hotel? Have you gone back to Hangzhou?"

"No," Yan Zhen said. "I'm going back now."

Xiao Yun seemed relieved, and her tone became lighter: "Have you eaten?"

"No."

"What would you like to eat? I'll go buy it for you."

Yan Zhen recalled the breakfast she had that morning. She had mentioned to the factory manager that the breakfast at XX Restaurant was quite good. She learned from the factory manager that the restaurant was more than 30 kilometers away from her hotel.

Xiao Yun goes to work at seven o'clock, so why did he go to buy her breakfast at five in the morning?

Thinking of this, Yan Zhen decided to reward Xiao Yun, and asked in return, "Have you eaten?"

"not yet."

"Then come downstairs, I'll go back and pick you up, and we'll go out to eat together."

"it is good!"

The bodyguard drove back to the hotel to pick up Xiao Yun, and they headed to the city center.

While sitting in the car, Xiao Yun scrolled through her phone and asked Yan Zhen what she wanted to eat.

Yan Zhen glanced at his phone screen and saw that he had made several pages of food guides in his notes.

"Something light, you decide," Yan Zhen said, then added, "Choose a restaurant you like."

Xiao Yun paused slightly, a small smile appearing on his lips: "Okay."

The car stopped at a Western restaurant in the city. Xiao Yun asked for a private room and took care of ordering the food.

As they ate and chatted, Yan Zhen noticed that Xiao Yun was more talkative than usual when facing her, and her attitude was noticeably more relaxed when communicating with her.

This relaxed atmosphere lasted until the end of their meal, when the two ran into Yan Jing and two other actresses as they left the restaurant.

Yan Jing and the two actresses came here to shop after get off work. She recognized Xiao Yun at first glance, then thought the woman next to Xiao Yun looked familiar, and finally realized that the woman was her aunt. Her mind went blank.

"Auntie." Yan Jing swallowed, her gaze shifting between Yan Zhen and Xiao Yun. "What are you doing here, and..."

Is she still with Xiao Yun?

In an instant, countless guesses flashed through her mind.

Is it possible that Auntie and Xiao Yun just happened to bump into each other and had a meal together?

Or perhaps Xiao Yun was grateful to his aunt for smoothing over the online controversy, so he specially invited her to dinner to express his thanks.
