The little rose is so sweet and alluring, even the aloof CEO can't resist!

After a long day working with the film crew, Liang Liangwei returned to the hotel exhausted.

I quickly took a shower, changed into a casual outfit, put on light makeup, and then took out a light jacket from the closet to wear.

Haicheng is located in the Jiangnan region, and it's not too cold in winter. The sun is still warm during the day, which is nothing compared to the cold in Huacheng. The clothes she brought this time were all a bit thinner, and she felt much lighter wearing them.

She grabbed her bag, walked out of the room towards the elevator, and sent Lan Yin a WeChat message: [I'm going out, eat dinner by yourself~]

Lan Yin: [OK~]

She took a taxi to the restaurant location Gu Cheng had sent her, and happened to run into Gu Cheng, who had just gotten out of the car, at the restaurant entrance. The two girls called out each other's names and hugged each other warmly.

"Haven't seen you in a while, Vivi, you've gotten even more beautiful!"

"You're the one who's making fun of ordinary people! You're a great beauty, a big star, and you just love joking around with ordinary people!"

The two were exchanging compliments, which attracted the attention of passersby.

Although Gu Cheng is not as popular as top-tier actresses, she is still a frequent face on screen and is easily recognized by passersby. However, she was wearing a mask and it was nighttime, so passersby only thought her eyebrows and eyes were pretty and didn't pay much attention.

However, the bright and delicate Liang Liangwei was more attractive and drew people's attention.

"Did you make a reservation?" Liang Liangwei asked as the two walked in hand in hand.

"It wasn't me, my brother booked it for me. He's more familiar with Haicheng, so I asked him to recommend a place," Gu Cheng said as she entered, telling the waiter the name of the private room and pulling Liang Liangwei behind her. "My brother showed me his stage makeup today, oh my god, it looks terrible! If it weren't for his theatrical makeup, I would have thought he'd been beaten up!"

Liang Liangwei covered her mouth and laughed: "I took that as a compliment."

Gu Cheng: "What do you mean by 'praise'? I'm just complimenting you! Not only me, my brother complimented you too. He said everyone on the set praised your makeup!"

Liang Liangwei nodded shamelessly: "Yes, I admit that. I've been praised too many times today."

Gu Cheng: "Ah, you're so shameless!"

The two followed the waiter up to the second floor and stopped in front of a private room.

Gu Cheng knocked on the door, turned and went in: "Brother, Weiwei and I are here~"

Liang Liangwei only realized there were other people inside when she heard her words. She was stunned for a moment, but the person had already been pulled inside.

Gu Yan was indeed inside, slowly pouring tea. Hearing this, he looked up and clicked his tongue lightly, "Be more refined."

Gu Cheng stuck out her tongue, becoming a little more restrained: "Okay~"

Gu Yan then looked at Liang Liangwei and smiled slightly: "Miss Liang, please sit down."

Liang Liangwei suppressed her surprise and said with a smile, "Teacher Gu, I didn't expect you to be here. Gu Cheng didn't tell me."

Gu Yan: "I apologize for being presumptuous. Chengcheng said she didn't know any local delicacies in Haicheng, so she asked me to come along and recommend some to her. That's why I came uninvited."

Liang Liangwei quickly said, "Teacher Gu, you're too kind. That's not what I meant. I just thought you must be quite tired from filming today. You should be back at the hotel to rest or prepare for tomorrow's scenes. I didn't mean to bother you."

Gu Yan glanced at Gu Cheng, smiled indulgently, and said, "Come back when you're filming. You should treat your only sister well when she comes to visit the set, otherwise she'll go back and nag about me ignoring her, which will give you a headache."

Gu Cheng glared at him and said, "Am I that unreasonable?"

Gu Yan looked at her with a smile, his meaning unspoken.

Gu Cheng seemed to recall something, twitched his lips, coughed lightly, and said, "Alright, alright, let's not talk about me. You two are the ones being weird. It's understandable during the day when we're at work, but now that we're off work, you're still calling each other 'Teacher Gu' and 'Miss Liang,' it's giving me goosebumps~"

Gu Yan frowned slightly and gently scolded, "Don't be so rude."

Gu Cheng muttered, "I'm serious. One of you is my good friend, and the other is my brother. We're also business partners, so we'll have plenty of opportunities to meet in the future. Why don't we compromise and change how we address each other? For example—"

Gu Yan glanced quickly at Liang Liangwei, and seeing her unconscious and embarrassed expression, his face darkened further. He said, "Chengcheng, stop fooling around. Miss Liang and I just met today. This way of addressing each other is fine. We can talk about it more when we get to know each other better. Please invite Miss Liang to sit down."

Liang Liangwei also nudged Gu Cheng's arm at the right moment.

Gu Cheng could only pout and pull Liang Liangwei to sit opposite him.

Gu Yan's expression softened, and he looked at Liang Liangwei, saying, "I don't know what you like to eat, so I haven't ordered yet, but I've ordered a pot of chrysanthemum tea, is that alright?"

His intervention just now was quite endearing, and Liang Liangwei smiled and said, "Okay, thank you, Teacher Gu."

Gu Yan rang the bell to call the waiter to order, and the waiter quickly knocked on the door and came in, handing over the menu.

Gu Yan gestured "please" to the people opposite, and Gu Cheng accepted it without hesitation, ordering food with Liang Liangwei.

Gu Yan then poured two more cups of tea and handed one to each of the two girls opposite him.

First, he gave it to his younger sister who was directly opposite him, and then to Liang Liangwei who was diagonally opposite him.

Then he leaned back, looking relaxed and at ease, but in reality, he pretended to drink tea while openly and casually looking at the girl.

The two girls discussed ordering food. Every time they ordered something, Gu Cheng would look up and ask for his opinion. He would then turn his head away to agree, and then look back at them when they weren't looking.

After a few tries, the dishes were ordered, and the waiter put away the menu.

Gu Yan: "Please hurry up, we're very hungry."

Waiter: "Okay."

After the waiter left, Gu Cheng picked up his tea and started drinking it, probably because he was thirsty.

There was a moment of silence in the private room, and Liang Liangwei suddenly felt a little awkward.

If it were just her and Gu Cheng, she would never have this feeling. But there was a very prominent movie star sitting opposite her, and they weren't even acquainted. She really felt like she could dig her toes into a suite.

After thinking for a moment, he started making small talk with Gu Cheng: "How come you have time to come to Haicheng? Don't you have any announcements or acting jobs lately?"

Gu Cheng: "It's quite a coincidence, isn't it? I just finished filming an advertisement, and my new drama won't start filming until the week after next. I've been resting these past few days and was wondering where to go for fun when my brother told me you were here to do their makeup. I figured I could take this opportunity to visit him on set and hang out with you at the same time, so I came over~"

Gu Yan: "All you do is play around. The new movie is about to start filming, why aren't you memorizing your lines and getting into character?"

Gu Cheng muttered, "The roles I've taken aren't difficult at all. You know I have a good memory, so memorizing lines is a piece of cake for me."

Gu Yan frowned, seemingly disagreeing with her attitude. He glanced at Liang Liangwei, then held back.

Liang Liangwei felt even more embarrassed and quickly picked up her teacup to drink tea to cover it up.

Fortunately, the waiter brought the food quickly.

Gu Cheng clicked his tongue in amazement: "Southerners are indeed delicate; even the portions they serve are so adorable. Is this salmon really enough for the three of us? One bite each and it'll be gone, won't it?"

Liang Liangwei suppressed a laugh and said, "We can eat more delicately; two bites per person is still achievable."

The waiter was amused as well.

Gu Cheng hurriedly said, "Don't touch your chopsticks yet, let me take a picture!"

She took out her phone and started snapping photos from various angles.

Liang Liangwei found it amusing, but then, for some reason, she was also tempted and took a picture with her phone.

Gu Yan was about to scold his sister, but seeing that she was also taking pictures, he took back his words.

Liang Liangwei only took one photo, then posted it on her WeChat Moments with the caption: "Southern food is so delicate; delicate people must eat it~"
