Qingping was the capital of R Nation.

Pei Yi lived on Mount Qingping.

The mountain was named after the capital.

However, she knew that the mobile number did not belong to Pei Yi because she had saved his number in her mobile phone.

 An Xiaoning dialed the number and heard that it had a melodious dial tone. The call went through shortly after.

Just like she had expected, it wasn’t Pei Yi.

“I went through such painstaking means to invite you to R Nation. I didn’t expect you to be cautious and vigilant.”

She answered, “I have no idea who you are at all. If I just leave with your underlings, wouldn’t that make me a fool? I’m in my thirties, I’m not thirteen. You should have just been honest and sent me an invitation openly. Isn’t that the normal thing to do? Whatever you had done just makes me repulsed. I really despise how shady you are.”

“I was just thinking that it’d be hard to invite you since I’m only a small fry. I hereby apologize to you.”

Not wanting to beat around the bush, An Xiaoning asked, “You know me, don’t you?”

“I know you, of course. You’re the famous Ms. An, Jin Qingyan’s ex-wife, the mother of his son, the daughter of the current president. You’re the honorable princess.”

 “Don’t beat around the bush. I mean, you do know me personally, don’t you? Otherwise, why would you say ‘Long time no see’? That’s something that you’d say to someone when you meet them again after a long time.”

 The man chuckled and said, “So, will you come and take a look at the mural of yourself if I sent you an invite?”

An Xiaoning answered coldly, “That’ll depend on your sincerity. Although I’ve never met you before, nor do I have any memory of you, you’ve already given me a bad impression because of what you had done sneakily. I hope you’ll redeem yourself.”

 Needless to say, An Xiaoning had plans of her own.

He answered sluggishly with a sigh, “Ah… sure, wait for my invite, then. That’s all I have to say to you.”

As soon as the call ended, Jin Qingyan wrapped his arm around her waist while she lay down beside him. He greeted in a hoarse voice, “Good morning.”

 “He called me.”

“Yeah, I heard everything.”

An Xiaoning buried her face in his chest and took a whiff of his scent before leaning closer toward him.

“Qingyan…”

 “Yes…”

 “I… love you.”

 “I love you, too.”

 ——

 “Sis, there you go,” Xiao Yue said while handing her the dress with both hands.

Fang Erlan took it from her and exclaimed, “Ah, it’s so beautiful.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Chenyang snatched it away from her and replaced it with a pink sweater and a pair of black tights.

Staring at the clothes in her hands, Fang Erlan said, “You want me to wear this to the publicity events?”

 “It’s almost October. The temperatures are getting chilly. Why are you even wearing a dress?”

 “There are heaters on set.”

He threw the dress onto the bed and countered, “No. Women ought to take proper care of their health once fall arrives. Otherwise, you’ll grow to become vulnerable to the cold in the future.”

Although he had a sullen expression on his face, his tone was still gentle. She tiptoed and pinched his cheeks. “Why so serious? I just won’t wear the dress. Will that do?”

Xiao Chenyang’s austerity instantly vanished. He placed his hand behind her head and kissed her a few times, which was to the dismay of Xiao Yue. Xiao Yue hurriedly turned around, blushing red with embarrassment.

Ten minutes later, Fang Erlan changed into the pink sweater, black tights, and a pair of cherry red stilettos before getting inside the nanny van.

She proceeded to attend the publicity event together with Yan Ge for the television series that An Xiaoning had invested in.

 The post-production works for the television series were almost complete, and the broadcast date was confirmed today. Hence, they had begun attending publicity events and filming for variety programs in a bid to promote the television series.

Fang Erlan, Yan Ge, and the rest of the cast got into standby backstage. Although the television series had yet to go on air, it had already garnered the attention and support of everyone, mainly because the director was Jing Tian and the male lead was played by Yan Ge. Another reason was also because everyone was looking forward to seeing Fang Erlan’s acting chops. Lastly, it was because the storyline was captivating.

The first segment of the program was an interview. When the emcee asked Yan Ge which attribute of Fang Erlan had attracted him, everyone shifted their eyes and attention onto him.

He glanced at Fang Erlan with a tender gaze and said, “What attracts me most is her unique charm. I can’t explain in detail what I like about her, but I just really fancy her.”

 Despite being extremely reluctant to respond, she knew clearly that they were in the midst of filming a program and that she was still Yan Ge’s girlfriend in the eye of the public.

Thus, she put on a courteous smile.

Personal questions were inevitable during variety programs. Hence, Fang Erlan was at a loss for an answer when the emcee posed the next question.

“Erlan, where did you meet Yan Ge for the first time?”

 “In a hotel in C City, where the cast and crew were staying in throughout the course of filming. I had never met him before prior to this television series. Hence, I decided to go to the hotel to find out if Yan Ge was an easygoing person.”

 Smiling, the emcee probed, “What happened next? How did your first meeting with him go?”

 “Not… too well.” Recalling her first encounter with Yan Ge, Fang Erlan could not help but burst into laughter and continued, “It was thoroughly amusing. When I was there, I ran into a psychopath who tried to drag me away. However, I managed to shake him off and accidentally barged into Yan Ge’s room. His door had been left ajar at that time. It was my first time meeting him.”

 The audience broke into boisterous chatter, and the emcee asked, “It’s a rather romantic encounter, sans the psychopath. However, you must have been terrorized, haven’t you?”

 “Yeah, I was frightened out of my wits.”

The emcee asked curiously, “What happened next, then? How did Yan Ge react to you, the uninvited guest?”

Fang Erlan recalled the scenario that night, where Yan Ge questioned her sternly about how she had managed to come inside.

In conclusion, she still had him to thank for saving her that night, despite the string of unhappy events. However, she obviously could not divulge those details during the program.

“He got a huge shock when he saw me. However, he remained calm and listened to my explanation. I left after clarifying things,” she answered.

Yan Ge did not deny her statement. The two of them were the only ones who knew clearly what happened that night.
