For a long time, Qin Yiren maintained the position of holding him, softly breaking the silence in the room.
"Chu Xinian."
The man kissed her cheek with lingering affection, "I'm here."
His quick reply emphasized her hesitation.
Qin Yiren bit her lip and paused for a moment before she spoke in a low voice, "Did you… happen to see Miss Ji's press conference?"
"What?" Chu Xinian lowered his eyes to gaze at her, bewildered, and asked, "What press conference? About a new movie?"
As he asked, his tone was sincere and devoid of any trace of deception or evasion.
Moreover, Ji Manman's press conference was entirely of her own initiative. Even though the employees at Chu Xinian's company should have been aware, they naturally would have informed their boss. But his phone had been confiscated by Mrs. Chu early on, temporarily cutting him off from the world.
Given all of this, Qin Yiren found herself unable to muster a reason to be truly angry and could only give him an exasperated look.
