After breaking off the engagement, she became the CEO's favorite

Chu Yue nodded and gave a look to the people around her.

The others followed the waiter into the inner room.

Chu Yue and Lu Ranran were the only ones left in the front hall, and the rustling sound of cutting vegetables could be heard from the kitchen from time to time.

Lu Ranran was a little embarrassed.

After everything that happened at Nancheng Media, she didn't know how to get along with Chu Yue.

Does Chu Yue know that someone stole her work and made Lu Keke the credited screenwriter?

Or was it her idea that this whole thing happened?

Different from Lu Ranran’s inner scrutiny.

Chu Yue was indeed a little surprised when she saw Lu Ranran.

But she quickly adjusted herself.

"Why are you here?"

Chu Yue's tone was gentle and elegant, with a hint of intimacy.

She looked Lu Ranran up and down calmly, and said incredulously:

"The Shen family wants you to work? As a waiter?"

"If you have any trouble, you should look for Keke and Beiyu. At the very least, why are you so estranged from me, your aunt?"

As he said this, he took a step forward and pretended to hold Lu Ranran's hand.

Lu Ranran stepped back to avoid Chu Yue's hand and said politely:

"I haven't been feeling well lately."

"Jianye is a small shop invested by Xiling. It's better for me to do something here than to stay at home."

When Chu Yue heard the words "not in good spirits", her eyebrows twitched.

These words obviously did not satisfy Chu Yue.

Lu Ranran could tell from Chu Yue's expression that she wished Lu Ranran would be neglected by the Shen family.

But soon she scolded kindly:

"After getting married, I still don't know how to go home more often."

"If you disappear without a trace, others might think we are treating you badly."

"Today is our company dinner, I'll deal with them first."

"I'll talk to you again when I have time. Don't hide from your aunt."

Chu Yue patted Lu Ranran's shoulder gently, walked over her, and her high heels tapped on the stone floor.

Although she is over 50 years old, she has taken good care of herself and her figure is still graceful.

Different from the pretentious Lu Keke.

When Chu Yue walked through the courtyard with swaying shadows of trees, she felt a bit like a foreigner.

Lu Ranran breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, Jianye's door was pushed open again.

Two ladies walked in.

One of them had neat short hair and was slightly plump, but her sharp gaze gave her a capable and professional air.

And the other lady following behind her was enough to make a deep impression at a quick glance.

Her thick black hair was casually tied into a ponytail at the back of her head, and her huge sunglasses covered most of her small and delicate face.

But it can't hide her beauty.

As soon as she entered the door, she looked around impatiently, finally looking in the direction of Lu Ranran.

He seemed to think for a while and then made a soft "tsk" sound.

At first glance, Lu Ranran felt that the lady's temperament seemed somewhat familiar.

But she didn't have time to think too much at this moment.

Perhaps beauties are all similar in some sense.

Lu Ranran hurried over to meet him.

"Is this a guest who made an appointment?"

The short-haired lady nodded graciously.

"Yes, two private rooms reserved."

"You come with me."

Led by Lu Ranran, the two of them walked through the atrium and came to the box.

As they were walking, the beautiful lady complained in a bad tone:

"What is Chu Yue thinking about? She has to come here. Her feet hurt from walking so much."

The short-haired lady patiently explained:

"Ms. Lu ordered it herself and said she had reserved it for a month."

The beautiful lady snorted disdainfully and said nothing more.

After the two of them walked into the box, Lu Ranran rushed to the front desk and looked through the list of reserved customers.

I didn’t find Lu Keke, but I did discover Shen Beiyu’s name.

The scheduled time seemed to be not far from the time when Gu Nianzhi would deliver the food.

Lu Ranran secretly found it funny.

In her impression, Lu Keke is such a person.

No matter how good things you have, you always think that what others have is the best.

Someone patted her from behind.

"What are you looking at?"

It’s Zhang Xiaoyuan.

She was still holding her camera with its extra-long lens.

Lu Ranran was very puzzled as to how Zhang Xiaoyuan's slender arms could hold up the heavy camera without moving at all.

No wonder a wine bottle could smash Zhang Heng's head and cause him to bleed.

"Hey, what are you thinking about?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Lu Ranran.

Lu Ranran came back to his senses and said hurriedly:

"Nothing, nothing..."

Zhang Xiaoyuan looked unconvinced, "It's nothing, why are you smiling so obscenely?"

Seeing that she couldn't hide it anymore, Lu Ranran had to wave her to come closer and cover up the past with Lu Keke's matter.

Zhang Xiaoyuan sneered after hearing this.

"Is she worthy of your giggling for so long?"

Then his expression changed, he pointed in the direction of the box and chuckled mischievously.

"How about...playing a little prank?"

Lu Ranran hit her shoulder in horror.

"It's too easy to leave evidence if you play a prank here."

The two were stunned when they met each other, and then burst into laughter.

Gu Nianzhi poked his head out of the kitchen. "What are you laughing at? I want to listen, too!"

Zhang Xiaoyuan angrily drove the man back.

"What are you listening to! Do your job!"

It was almost time to serve the food.

Serving the food was the job of Gu Nianzhi and another waiter.

When Lu Ranran had some free time, she and Zhang Xiaoyuan sorted out the equipment that she had scattered around the yard.

The autumn weather is clear and the moonlight appears brighter than usual.

A breeze blew by, casting mottled shadows on the trees.

Lu Ranran casually hooked her hair behind her ears.

At this time, Zhang Xiaoyuan suddenly shouted, "Don't move."

Lu Ranran froze in place instantly.

A crisp "click" sound was heard immediately.

"Perfect!"

Lu Ranran breathed a sigh of relief, turned around, and was about to complain that Zhang Xiaoyuan was always taking pictures everywhere.

Another sharp female voice interrupted and shouted:

“There’s a secret camera!”

This shout stunned everyone present.

The window of the box was pushed open with a bang, and the window blades hit the wall heavily.

Zhang Xiaoyuan and Lu Ranran, who were at the center of attention, had not yet reacted.

The capable short-haired lady immediately walked out of the box and approached Zhang Xiaoyuan quickly.

Gu Nianzhi just happened to come out of the box carrying a tray.

Seeing this, he quickly stood in front of Zhang Xiaoyuan.

"What do you mean by secretly filming? There was no secretly filming. What's going on?"

The short-haired lady spoke in a serious tone, as if she was doing something official.

"Sir, we chose Jianye because we value privacy."

"Now there's someone with a camera here. I don't think she's an employee of Jianye."

"Please give us an explanation."

Gu Nianzhi was stunned by what he said.

Zhang Xiaoyuan was very upset because he was accused of being secretly photographed.

But she glanced at Gu Nianzhi, pursed her lips, and took a deep breath.

"I didn't take any secret photos," she handed over the camera. "If you don't believe me, you can check it out."

"I am the photographer he hired. If my work accidentally offends you, I apologize."

Not only Lu Ranran, but Gu Nianzhi also looked surprised.

Zhang Xiaoyuan just shrugged, looking as if this kind of thing was very common.

The short-haired lady hesitated for a second, then decisively reached out to take the camera.

"Wait a moment."

At this moment, a voice stopped her action.
