“Brother Jie… God Shi!” Su Manman addressed them politely.
Tu Jie raised his brows and looked at Su Manman. Her chin was slightly raised, and her expression was normal, but he felt that something was off…
Su Manman had always addressed Shi Hanchu as “Shi Hanchu”, right? Why did he become God Shi today?
“Why is Manman here too? Are you here for dinner?” asked Tu Jie.
Su Manman nodded. “Are you guys the same? The food here isn’t bad…”
“Don’t eat too much food just because your taste has recovered!” Tu Jie instructed Su Manman before asking, “Want to eat together?”
“No, I came with a friend…” Su Manman pursed her lips and smiled, her smile especially alluring.
“Alright, then I won’t force you! But when we’re done, you can go to my place!” Tu Jie suddenly thought of something. “Aren’t you going to resume shooting with Hanchu tomorrow? We can go to my place later and have supper to celebrate…”
“It’s not that I don’t give you face, Brother Jie. God Shi knows… I don’t have the habit of having supper! It’s not easy to maintain my figure!” Su Manman said.
“Alright, alright! I won’t force you!” Tu Jie wanted to pull Su Manman and Shi Hanchu together. “Why not join us with your friend? Let’s have a table!”
“It’s okay…” Su Manman smiled and stroked her hair flirtatiously. “It’s not very convenient!”
Tu Jie glanced at Shi Hanchu and asked Su Manman softly, “A man?”
“Mm! A friend of the family…”
When Su Manman said this, Su Jie understood.
Su Manman was on a blind date…
“Blind date?” Shi Hanchu asked.
“Isn’t this normal?” Su Manman smiled.
Shi Hanchu nodded and didn’t say anything…
Tu Jie was a little anxious and asked half-jokingly, “Didn’t you say you like God Shi… Why didn’t you consider dating him?”
Su Manman’s smile grew brighter, and a faint smile appeared in her beautiful eyes. “Dating God Shi is fine, but for someone like me, marriage is a different matter altogether. It would be troublesome, and I’m a person who doesn’t like trouble! Also… I wouldn’t want to be chased and scolded by God Shi’s fans!”
Su Manman then turned around and glanced at her seat. She saw her companion waving at her with a smile.
Su Manman waved her hand back. She smiled and said, “Then… I’ll go over first!”
Tu Jie smiled awkwardly. “Okay… okay!”
Watching Su Manman leave gracefully, Tu Jie nudged Shi Hanchu with his elbow. “What’s going on between the two of you? You guys were still fine at the hospital!”
Shi Hanchu pulled a long face and remained silent.
As Su Manman walked back to her seat, Tu Jie told the waiter about his reservation.
Shi Hanchu and Tu Jie sat near Su Manman.
This restaurant required reservations, so regular customers weren’t able to enter. Therefore, plenty of celebrities and wealthy people frequent this restaurant. They didn’t have to be afraid of having their pictures snapped by paparazzi or being disturbed by people asking for their autographs.
Shi Hanchu sat down and looked in Su Manman’s direction. He saw that Su Manman was still as lazy as ever, with her legs crossed… Her high heels hung on her toes, as if they would drop at any moment.
He frowned.
“Do you want… a glass of wine?” The man in the suit felt suddenly in a good mood with Su Manman, so he unbuttoned his suit jacket and asked.
Su Manman casually played with the slim and long earring on her ear. She nodded, smiling, but her voice was cold. “Okay…”
The server brought over the red wine and poured the ruby red liquid into the glass. Su Manman took a sip, but as usual, she couldn’t taste anything…
Shi Hanchu sat in the distance and observed Su Manman. He realized that Su Manman had no expression on her face when she ate most of the food.
She didn’t particularly praise a dish…
During filming, he remembered every time she ate something, even if it was only an ice cube, she would still show it on her face because the ice cubes were of peppermint or lemon flavors.
He now doubted whether Su Manman had really regained her sense of taste.
“You keep looking at Manman. Do you like her?” Tu Jie didn’t turn around and asked Shi Hanchu with a smile.
Shi Hanchu lowered his gaze and placed the steak into his mouth. “They don’t match together!”
“That’s right!” Tu Jie picked up the lemon water. “Manman is quite compatible with you! But your family background isn’t good!”
Shi Hanchu seemed to have thought of something and suddenly waved at the server.
When the server came over, Shi Hanchu covered his mouth with one hand and said to the server in a low voice, “Give Su Manman, the lady at that table, a glass of fresh lemon juice. Tell her it’s from me…”
The server looked at Shi Hanchu in confusion, then at Su Manman…
After all, Shi Hanchu and Su Manman were famous people. The server didn’t believe that Shi Hanchu would prank Su Manman, so he was hesitant.
“Don’t worry, and just send it over there. Tell her I ordered the drink and asked to add some honey to the drink. She’ll like it. Trust me…” Shi Hanchu said with a smile.
The server then nodded and went to prepare.
“You’re so clear about Su Manman’s preferences. What do you mean by adding a little honey? It’s too obvious that you’re trying to win her over!” Tu Jie was curious about what Shi Hanchu had ordered for Su Manman.
Shi Hanchu lowered his head and said, “Men won’t like it…”
Tu Jie pursed his lips. He thought it was Shi Hanchu’s friendly gesture towards Su Manman, so he was actually quite happy deep down.
The server followed Shi Hanchu’s instructions and sent over the freshly squeezed lemon juice to Su Manman. He smiled and said, “This is the drink Mr. Shi ordered for you. We added a little honey as per his instruction. I hope you like it!”
Su Manman paused in surprise and looked in Shi Hanchu’s direction.
Seeing Shi Hanchu raise his cup to her, the corners of Su Manman’s lips turned up into a bright smile. She also raised her cup to Shi Hanchu and took a sip.
Seeing that Su Manman didn’t even frown, and then recalling how she was frowning after eating a piece of lemon ice cube, Shi Hanchu suddenly understood.
He put down his cup and walked towards Su Manman.
“Huh? Where are you going?” asked Tu Jie.
Shi Hanchu didn’t reply. Tu Jie was shocked… Was Shi Hanchu planning to snatch her away?
Seeing the tall Shi Hanchu coming over aggressively, Su Manman felt a little nervous. She gripped her shawl tightly and maintained her smile…
The man in a suit followed Su Manman’s gaze and saw Shi Hanchu walking over slowly. He subconsciously stood up…
It wasn’t because Shi Hanchu had a strong background, but because he was also Shi Hanchu’s little fan!
“God Shi!” The man looked at Shi Hanchu with bright eyes.
Shi Hanchu smiled and nodded. He said to the man in the suit, “I just received a call from Director Chen. He has something to discuss with Su Manman about tomorrow’s scenes. Can I borrow her for a bit?”
Shi Hanchu’s words were very polite…
“Of course… of course!” The man in a suit nodded repeatedly and even pulled out the chair for Shi Hanchu.
