Seeing that the good moment was interrupted by a sudden phone call, Qiao Yu was a bit upset. He picked up his phone and saw that it was from Gao Yang. He thought it was probably about Gao Lihua. He was already disgusted by Gao Lihua's behavior, so he hung up directly.

Xia Ning received Jin Yan's call.

Xia Ning darted a look at Qiao Yu and stood up to pick up the call. But the man next to her held her in his arms and did not let her leave.

The call went through. Even though Xia Ning was not happy with Qiao Yu's sudden action, she still said to the phone, “h.e.l.lo, Jin Yan, what's wrong?” At the same time, she glared at Qiao Yu, gesturing for him to let go.

But it was as if Qiao Yu did not see her eyes. He wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her hair, and from her ear to her cheek.

His warm breath hit her and Xia Ning's heart skipped a beat. Her brain was not working enough and she could not hear what Jin Yan was saying. All her attention was on the man next to her.

“Jin Yan, what did you just say?” Xia Ning said as she reached out and pinched Qiao Yu's waist.

Qiao Yu stopped what he was doing and darted a look at Xia Ning with some resentment in his eyes.

Xia Ning was almost shocked by the look in her eyes. She wanted to laugh but realized that it was not the right time. She was holding it in and could not help but cough a few times.

“Xiao Ke, what's wrong? Did you catch a cold?” Jin Yan's worried voice came from the phone. “Did you…”

Xia Ning realized what he wanted to say and said at once, “No, it's nothing. The air-conditioning in the restaurant was just right yesterday. Didn't you say we were filming outside today? There's the sun, no need to worry. I just choked.”

She had told Qiao Yu that she went to another place yesterday. If she was exposed now, the consequences would be dire.

“Yes, although the sun is big today, the wind is not small. Don't wear too little. Also, don't drive too fast when you come. There's no rush.”

“Sure,” Xia Ning answered. “You too.”

“Tell me when we leave.”

“Sure,” Xia Ning answered and hung up.

Qiao Yu looked at Xia Ning calmly and raised his eyebrows. “Is that your so-called male bestie?”

Xia Ning was surprised. He knows that word?! She smiled suddenly. “Jin Yan just called to remind me of the time. His new MV is not done filming yet and needs to continue today. It's in a park this time. Alright, I need to get ready.” As she spoke, she was ready to get up.

But she felt something on her wrist and Xia Ning was a bit speechless. “Stop messing around. Time is tight.” But that person did not let go of her hand at all. She turned around and wanted to talk to him. Suddenly, someone grabbed her wrist. The next moment, she fell into a firm embrace. She laid on top of him and her body pressed against his. The position was very ambiguous.

“What are you doing…” Xia Ning glared at the handsome man under her and looked upset. Was he trying to mess with her whenever he had time? But before she could finish, a big hand wrapped behind her head and pressed her head down. The next moment, her lips were engulfed by a warm layer of dampness.

In the general manager's office of the Gao Group, Gao Yang looked at his phone that was hung up and frowned slightly. Did Brother think he was going to talk to him about his aunt and hung up on him?! But what he wanted to say was more important than this. He could not watch him get deceived.

At this thought, he called Qiao Yu again.
