Outside the film crew.

Jiang Yan was stunned for a moment, "Qingyan, are we really going to have dinner with that person?"

“Hmm, he doesn’t eat people.” Gu Qingyan tilted her head. It was past seven o’clock at night, and the streetlights were already on. She was wearing a black baseball cap and standing there lazily.

Jiang Yan responded with an "oh".

No sooner had he finished speaking than the car arrived in front of him. The man sat in the driver's seat of the silver Aston Martin, his face turned to the side, with a high nose bridge, thin and cool lips, and deep-set eyes.

The black shirt was rolled up, revealing lean arms underneath, with a cigarette between clean, slender fingers.

The black Teng Hui behind them had Xie Shiren and Shi Qiansi in the driver's seat and passenger seat, respectively.

Shangguan Du glanced at Gu Qingyan's slightly furrowed brows, stubbed out his cigarette and tossed it into the ashtray inside the car, then pushed open the door and got out.

He is 1.9 meters tall with long, straight legs.

With two buttons undone on her shirt, her delicate collarbone was revealed, along with a hint of her chest muscles.

With one hand in his pocket, he walked towards Gu Qingyan.

"Let's go, Jiuying Restaurant. If you don't like it, we can go somewhere else."

Gu Qingyan nodded slightly, put her hands in her pockets, and followed Shangguandu to the Aston Martin.

"Miss Jiang, the bus is full. Please sit in the one behind me."

Shangguan Yan stepped forward and respectfully invited Jiang Yan.

Jiang Yan glanced at Gu Qingyan's side. Even if Shangguan Yan hadn't said anything, she wouldn't have dared to sit there. Who would want to sit with that guy? Did she have a death wish?

Without hesitation, he followed Shangguan Yan and sat in the back seat of the Teng Hui.

Gu Qingyan watched Jiang Yan get into the car, and then she also got into the passenger seat.

Shangguan Du looked at his hand, gently rubbed the little girl's head, which was fluffy and soft, rubbed his palm, chuckled softly, and walked around to the driver's seat.

……

Sheng Xuanyue, who was also at the film and television city, had just arrived at the "Drunken Rouge" film set when she saw Gu Qingyan get into a car.

The men in the car were clearly rich kids.

Has Gu Qingyan fallen to such a low level?

To this day, she still doesn't know how Gu Qingyan broke the scheme that day. She had put in a lot of effort for that scheme. How could Gu Qingyan know Gu Mingqi?

Could it be that her second brother helped her?

She stared intently in the direction where the Aston Martin had disappeared.

"Sister Yue, we're late," the assistant called to Sheng Yanyue. Seeing that she didn't respond, the assistant called out louder, "I heard that some investors came to treat everyone to dinner today, but they just left."

Sheng Xuanyue snapped out of her daze, smiled, and said softly, "Okay, I understand."

Investors?

No wonder Gu Qingyan sat in the passenger seat.

So what if the impasse is broken?

Soon, she will be completely disgraced!

……

Jiuying Restaurant.

Located in the bustling city center, Jiuying Restaurant is situated near the financial district, where land is incredibly valuable.

This place offers a palatial service experience. Those who can dine here are either high-ranking officials or nobles. Even ordinary wealthy families need connections to obtain a dining pass to get in.

Gu Qingyan followed Shangguan Du through the VIP passage to Yujun's private room without any obstruction.

Shangguan Yan arrived first and went straight up to arrange everything.

A moment later, Gu Qingyan and her group arrived.

Inside the private room, authentic classical calligraphy and paintings were everywhere, and the rosewood tables and chairs exuded the owner's wealth.

In front of a round table.

"Miss Gu, Miss Jiang," Gu Mingqi said with a smile as he stood up to greet them.

He was quite curious about how Gu Qingyan and Shangguan Du met. Gu Qingyan had helped deal with a scandal a while ago, and they were even sitting at the same table today.

The little girl nodded slightly to him.

As she walked over to sit down, Shangguandu pulled out a chair for her.

She glanced at him with her indifferent eyes, and the man's lips curled slightly, his eyes showing pleasure.

Gu Qingyan didn't say anything, took off her hat and put it in her backpack.

Shangguan Du sat down to her right.

Shi Qiansi, Xie Shiren, and Gu Mingqi exchanged glances in the air, their eyes filled with shock.

If they weren't hallucinating, then Shangguan Du was doing the job of a devoted boyfriend.

Throughout the entire capital city, the head of the Shangguan family has always been waited on hand and foot. How could he be expected to do something as trivial as driving someone around or pulling out their chair today?!

The three men stood frozen in their seats. Was Brother Du serious?

Everyone at the table knew each other, so there were no formalities or pleasantries.

Shangguan Yan took the pear wood menu from the waitress in the cheongsam and respectfully handed it to Shangguan Du.

Shangguan Du handed the menu to Gu Qingyan, but while Gu Qingyan looked at the menu, her attention was drawn to Shangguan Du.

Inside the antique-style private room, a man wearing a black shirt sat on the side, his rolled-up sleeves revealing lean, muscular muscles, his every move exuding wildness and unruliness.

As the man lifted the "Ten Thousand Years" teapot, her gaze fell upon it.

She was still wearing her necklace on her wrist, her brows slightly furrowed.

Tsk!

"Don't look at me. If you want to look, you can look as much as you want later. Let's order first." Shangguan Du placed the teacup in front of her, leaned close to her ear and whispered, pointing to the menu with his fingertip.

Gu Qingyan suppressed her emotions, lightly selected a few dishes from the menu, and handed them to him.

The little girl seemed to really like his chest muscles.

Lately, I keep seeing the image of the little girl's mischievous hands in his arms, her sweet smile teasing him, "Brother, can I touch you again?"

Xie Shiren noticed her and couldn't help but explain to her, "Gu Qingyan, this is a 200-year-old artifact. Do you know how much it costs at auction?"

After asking the question, Xie Shiren looked at Gu Qingyan with a mysterious expression.

Gu Qingyan glanced at the teapot but did not reply.

“30 billion!” Xie Shiren said, holding up three fingers to Gu Qingyan, staring intently at her, trying to find a new expression on her face.

After listening, Gu Qingyan picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip, and didn't even frown.

Seeing that Gu Qingyan's expression did not change, Xie Shiren widened his eyes and asked, "Gu Qingyan, aren't you curious at all?"

"Are you sure it's genuine?" Gu Qingyan asked.

"Don't you think it's amazing? 200 years! That's during several historical changes." Seeing Gu Qingyan's lukewarm reaction and her questioning of whether the item was genuine, Xie Shiren felt a little unbalanced. Back then, when he first learned that the "Ten Thousand Mountains and Ten Thousand Peaks" teapot was a product from 200 years ago, he was shocked for a long time and still bought it for 30 billion.

“Identify it again. It’s her student’s work.” Gu Qingyan was silent for a moment, looking at the teapot with a slight frown, her voice muffled and lazy.

"Gu Qingyan, this is probably your first time seeing this, right? Next time, I'll take you to an auction house."

Gu Qingyan lifted her eyelids and glanced at Xie Shiren, who addressed her as "brother".

Shi Qiansi kicked his leg under the table.

Shi Qiansi: "..."

This person just never learns!

Xie Shiren didn't take it seriously and began to explain to Gu Qingyan, "Jiulongge is the most famous and longest-established auction house in Shangjing City. Do you know how many years it has been open?"

After speaking, Xie Shiren looked at Gu Qingyan, hoping to see an excited expression on her face.

Shangguan Du cut the lion's head into four small pieces, put one small piece into Gu Qingyan's bowl, and put the rest into his own bowl.

Everyone in the private room watched in disbelief as this man, whose obsession with cleanliness was outrageous, simply ate half of the lion's head.

……

Don't you dislike being touched by others?

"Holy crap!! Is the film crew still on set?"

Xie Shiren closed his eyes and then opened them again...

The cold and ruthless Master Du actually shared a lion's head meatball with someone?!

Shi Qiansi: "..."

Gu Mingqi: "..."

Shangguan Du gave Xie Shiren a look of utter disdain. "If you don't want to eat, then have Shangguan Yan take you out for training."

Shi Qiansi was afraid that Xie Shiren might say something else, so she quickly reached out and covered his mouth.

Xie Shiren: Apply!!
