Quan Youli asked him out for supper because there was an organized celebration banquet after the Green Dragon Award. The artists who left after performing were not invited to the banquet, so they could only wait for it to end.
Everyone knew that Xincun Entertainment was in the limelight at tonight's awards ceremony. As the boss, Tang Jinyan would definitely be an important protagonist at the banquet. There would be countless industry insiders surrounding him to discuss cooperation plans for the next year. There would even be countless artists who would come to hug his thigh and cry about being rich and cozy up to him, as well as secretly stuffing small notes into their palms and drawing circles.
Unlike the usual boring social activities, Tang Jinyan enjoyed the atmosphere of being surrounded by stars. However, his curiosity was aroused by Quan Youli's text message, and the enjoyment of showing his divinity in front of people was tasteless.
In fact, in Korea, it was very ambiguous for a man and a woman to ask you out for supper or to ask you out for supper. There was a strong hint of "Do you want to have a go?"
This kind of hint was not like two colleagues in China having a bowl of snacks together after working overtime. No one would say that there was something wrong with them.
In other words, there was something wrong with Quan Youli's date … Tang Jinyan did not think that the girl would ask him out of the blue. Instead, he was very curious. After thinking for a while, he simply replied, "Why are you waiting for supper? I'll take you to the banquet."
Quan Youli did not know whether to laugh or cry when she received the reply. 'Do you really not treat us as outsiders?
If you really take me to the banquet, what's the difference between that and announcing that this girl is mine? '
She replied angrily, "Why? Do you really want to keep me?"
Tang Jinyan shouted that he was wronged. 'Damn it, you can just ask me out for supper, but I have to keep you for dinner?
Can you not have such double standards? '
He threw a tantrum. "Stop nagging. Be honest and follow me when the banquet is over."
Lin Yuner and Xu Xian were also texting Tang Jinyan. Their message was, "Take it easy at the banquet. Don't be seduced by those beautiful seniors and forget where your home is!"
Tang Jinyan wanted to reply, 'What if it's your idiot who seduces me?'
After thinking about it, he did not reply in the end. He just selected their names and sent a group message, "Wash up and wait for me tonight."
In the end, he had to send two messages at the same time. He accidentally sent a group message to Quan Youli as well.
"Bah."
Lin Yuner and Xu Xian blushed and spat when they received the text message. They quietly looked up at their sisters. Everyone was removing their makeup and no one was paying attention to them.
Quan Youli, on the other hand, seemed to be looking down at her phone. Her face was as red as a monkey's butt …
Quan Youli really wanted to cry at this moment.
The previous text had told her to behave herself and go to the dinner party with him after the banquet. She knew that this was inappropriate and was thinking about how to reply. But a few seconds later, there was a new one waiting for her. What the hell was this!
No matter how hard I try, I can't turn white … Bah bah bah, that's not right!
I treat you as my brother, but you want to f * ck me?
That's not right. You're usually not this kind of person. You let go of so many opportunities. Why did you suddenly change today?
Was it because he had gained too much today that his ego was inflated?
If he really wanted to do that … How was she going to break it?
Thinking about it carefully, she had always treated him as a good friend. She had never thought that if he fell out with her and wanted to f * ck her, she would be powerless to resist.
Quan Youli was so flustered that she did not even remove her makeup. She quickly packed up her belongings and planned to run away. The so-called supper date had long been forgotten.
What a joke! Supper date? Wasn't that just giving herself away?!
On the other hand, Tang Jinyan did not realize that his hand had slipped. He leisurely looked at the big prize and signaled Song Ji-hyo to deal with the situation while he ran backstage.
Speaking of which, he was quite familiar with this venue. It was Qingxi University's Peace Hall. T-ara's fan club activities were held here. Ren Taixi had also come here to do a show. He had been to this backstage before and was familiar with the place.
Just as he walked out of the backstage, he saw a few girls running toward the back door. Their backs were very familiar. Wasn't it Girls' Generation?
Among them, Quan Youli seemed to be in a panic …
Did she have to?
Didn't I just bring you to a banquet? Why did you make it look like you were being chased by a tiger?
Tang Jinyan put his hands on his waist and shouted angrily, "Hey!
Why are you running? "
Quan Youli shuddered and shrunk her shoulders as she stopped.
Lin Yuner turned around and smiled. "We don't want to disturb Wuli's Nine Masters to pick up girls at the banquet."
"What's there to pick up?" Tang Jinyan glared and said, "Aren't you enough for me to be in a terrible fix?"
Everyone laughed. They could understand that Tang Jinyan's words could not be any more true. The people around him were enough for him to be in a terrible fix. How could he have the time to extend his claws?
However, in Quan Youli's ears, it sounded like a hint. 'I haven't settled this yet. I don't have time for other things …'
Sure enough, Tang Jinyan's next sentence was, "Alright, you guys can do whatever you want. Youli, stay."
"Huh?" Lin Yuner said warily, "What are you doing?"
Tang Jinyan smiled and said, "Youli also has a movie this year. Unfortunately, she didn't get nominated. Come to dinner with me and get to know more people. There will be more opportunities in the future."
Lin Yuner pointed at her own nose. "I want to be in a movie too."
"It's easy for you. I'll arrange it for you.
As for Youli, it's better for her to accumulate connections on her own. "
Quan Youli was stunned. She looked up and seriously glanced at Tang Jinyan.
The meaning of his words was very clear. He meant that Lin Yuner was his woman anyway, so he would arrange it for her. Youli was just a friend, so she had to rely on herself.
It seemed that he was similar to how she knew him before. Women and friends were quite distinct. But what was with the text message just now?
Lin Yuner patted Quan Youli's shoulder and said with a smile, "Alright, I'll leave the idiot to you. You have to control your moral integrity."
Quan Youli said helplessly, "If I go to the banquet with him, others will think too much."
Lin Yuner chuckled. "Don't people think too much now?
Don't you think you're good friends who are not afraid of gossip? "
Quan Youli stopped talking.
It was true. From Zheng Mengzhun's level, to the company's management, to her sisters, they all regarded her as his woman. What was the point of avoiding gossip?
It would be more embarrassing if she refused forcefully.
In fact, she wanted to have supper with him today because she wanted to talk about this matter.
Tang Jinyan looked at his watch. "The banquet is in Xinluo. I'll take you there. I'll buy a dress on the way. You can't wear this costume to the banquet."
Quan Youli's shoulders drooped and she said helplessly, "It's up to you."
Sitting in Tang Jinyan's car, Quan Youli tilted her head and looked out of the window. She felt strange.
Her heart was in a mess before, but in fact, when she was alone with him, she was very peaceful. This was not like her normal state of mind. Perhaps she trusted him too much in her deep-rooted impression.
Tang Jinyan did not know that his hand had slipped. Of course, he did not know what the girl was thinking. He asked casually, "Why did you suddenly call me supper?"
"Oh."
Quan Youli came back to her senses and sighed. "I wanted to talk to you about something, but now I don't think there's anything to talk about."
Tang Jinyan asked curiously, "What's going on?"
"The crew of Strange Queen treated me as your woman, and T-ara treated me as an outsider. When I returned to the company, the management hinted that I should come to you more often to ask for advice. My sisters even asked me when I got together with you. Their attitude was not bad, and they even gave me their blessings … Someone even quietly asked me if I wanted to help with some harem fights …"
"Cough, cough, cough …" Tang Jinyan choked. He was curious for a long time. So, this was what the girl wanted to say …
Again, it was useless no matter how he thought about it. No one could separate themselves from the environment.
"The only people who still believe in our innocence are Yun 'er and Xiaoxian. They really know that there's nothing between us."
Quan Youli was helpless. "Although I don't think we have anything to hide, I can't stand being misunderstood all the time … The most important thing is, how can I find a boyfriend if this goes on?
I wanted to talk to you and discuss what to do next, and whether you should explain it to everyone.
But today, I realized that there's nothing to discuss … "
Tang Jinyan asked curiously, "Why?"
Quan Youli said faintly, "You dragged me into the banquet to announce your ownership, and at the same time, you asked me to clear my name.
Your intention is so clear. Why do I still need to discuss it with you?
Why don't we discuss what it will take for you to let me go? "
"Pfft …" Tang Jinyan could not help but step on the brakes. He almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
