Chapter 42: PDA Love them or hate them, PDAs are romantic, aren't they?

Was this the rumoured 'universal appeal'?

Su Jin blinked, and then haplessly, she rubbed her temples as she let out a light and sneering chuckle at her nonsensical thought that had just come out of nowhere.

Speaking of which, Zhuo Junan might have contacted him at the very moment when that reporter, Zhou Tong, had posted her first Weibo text. Truly, it appeared that this film emperor was quick-witted and had great perception. He could perceive what Zhou Tong's motives were, and moreover, he also knew which sort of people could not be messed with.

"Zhuo Junan will take over Xue Kai's role of Mu Cheng in《Sunflower》," Lu Xi shook hands with him, "I am looking forward to a pleasant collaboration."

"Likewise," Zhuo Junan smiled as he continued, "many thanks to Director Lu for giving me this opportunity."

"You're welcome." Lu Xi's lips curled, "your work has been impressive."

As their gazes met, the two men chuckled.

The flickering of lights from the cameras of the reporters offstage converged into a huge flash and created a large shadow behind them. In the minds of the reporters, they had all a.s.sumed that for Zhuo Junan to take the role as the supporting male lead with his 'Film Emperor' status, these words were most likely a scripted response out of courtesy.

However, only the two men onstage knew of the true meaning behind this brief conversation.

Previously when the audition results had been first released, Zhuo Junan had been in an unpleasant mood as he grumbled a bit at his manager, Shen Na. However, as someone who had climbed up the ranks of stardom from the lowest rungs step by step, naturally, he had a definitive understanding of people and the ones that he could or could not afford to offend.

Besides the Lu Family young master Lu Xi, there was even the Su Family's Su Jin- these two people were definitely people he could not afford to offend.

Therefore, in actuality, he had only made a mild protest.

Yet who would have known that those very words he had spoken in a fit of anger would have been misconstrued horribly on Zhou Tong's Weibo.

When that Weibo text had appeared, he had astutely sensed that something was amiss. Although what seemed to be both implied and written was a protest of injustice for him, still, the target was renowned in the industry as the outstanding and wickedly genius of a director, Lu Xi! This was clearly a moral coercion of public opinion and simultaneously, utilising and dragging him along as a s.h.i.+eld.

This matter was swiftly and clearly investigated. After all, when he had said all this, the only ones around him were two people; his manager, Shen Na, and his a.s.sistant. Shen Na had worked together with him for so many years, hence, they both knew each other like the back of their hands. Naturally, it could not be her. But then, after simply questioning the a.s.sistant, it was easily revealed that he had carelessly blurted out his rant to an outsider.

Dismissing an a.s.sistant was a simple matter, however, dealing with the aftermath of this matter was truly complicated.

After that very afternoon of discussion between himself and his manager, that evening Qin An had received a phone call from him.

Here, as far as Lu Xi was concerned, was another intelligent, and perceptive person with pretty decent acting skills on the production team. Indeed, what could he have against such an arrangement if it would save him time and effort?

"Director Lu, I heard that the author of《Sunflower》has the pen name of Su Jin. May I ask what is her relations.h.i.+p to your fiancee Su Jin?"

What IS the relations.h.i.+p, rather than, IS there any relation. This question was of high caliber and well put and in the midst of the clamour, it was particularly prominent.

Lu Xi arched an eyebrow; to think that there was actually someone who could make a mental leap, a.s.sociate a connection between both names and not only that, also have the audacity to ask the question?

"The author of the original work, Su Jin?" With his lips curled in a light smile, Lu Xi expressed his ever gentle smile, "I'm not too clear about that. The matters with the copyright have been handled by Qin An and I have yet to meet this person. Would Su Jin be you in the flesh, Jin'er?"

Raising his gaze and redirecting it to the corner of the first row, he looked at her.

In accordance with his gaze, the reporters' gazes also followed suit in the same direction. Until this moment, only then did they discover the girl who had more than half of her body hidden in the darkness.

As the spotlight fell upon her, Su Jin raised a hand to block off the s.h.i.+ne of light. As she gradually adjusted to the glare, she then inelegantly shot a supercilious look to the person on stage.

A staff member timely handed over a microphone to her.

As Su Jin took the proffered item, she simply s.h.i.+fted her glance straightforwardly towards the stage as she spoke, "Su Jin… …It definitely sounds like a girl. Have you truly not seen her before?"

Her long eyebrows were slightly raised in an arch as her phoenix eyes were distinctly lucid. As the warm colour of the stage lighting landed upon her porcelain-white skin, she became even a little more dazzling.

Onstage, Lu Xi hurriedly yet brightly replied, "Of course not!" He had an earnest expression, as if he was almost making a vow.

"Mm."

Su Jin nodded and returned the microphone back to the staff member as she limply curled herself back into the chair.

Watching as that dainty figure hid itself once more in the darkness, the reporters were in a daze for a short moment. They then swallowed this 'fresh out of the oven' and 'free-of-charge gift of dog food' (internet slang for PDA) down into their stomachs as they withdrew from the topic.

He had never seen her before and did not know her.

Hehe, even if it was true, Qin An would definitely not tell you? If she was not her, then be frank about it! To even call her out by name to ask this question, Director Lu; why don't you tell it as it is, this scene was a deliberate public display of affection, right? Am I right?

Thus, the news conference ended.

As to those reporters who wore expressions as if their world had fallen apart- for Lu Xi who was right there sending his young lady home and had both palms upwards in a shrug about this matter- what did all of their reactions have to do with him?

The Su residence.

When Su Yue returned home, it was already close to eleven in the evening. He had initially thought that everyone had already returned to their rooms and were sleeping. Yet, who would have thought that once he pushed open the door, he spotted all of the lights in the living room brightly lit and a young lady sleeping soundly and sweetly on the sofa.

"Why is she sleeping in the living room?" Su Yue heaved a sigh and changed into slippers as he walked towards the side of the sofa. He then reached out to pick up the person in his arms.

"Mmm." Perhaps it was due to the sudden s.h.i.+ft from her comfy position on the sofa, Su Jin stirred and her eyes blearily opened a st.i.tch.

Once she finally saw clearly the person's face before, her groggy mind immediately snapped out of it.

"Gege, you're back." She rubbed her eyes and delicately, yawned.

"Mm, why did you sleep on the sofa?" Since the one he was holding was already awake, Su Yue let her down.

"I was waiting for you."As her feet landed on the floor, Su Jin swiftly reached out to pull on Su Yue's arm as she pulled him towards the sofa to sit down.

"Waiting for me?" Su Yue frowned in bemus.e.m.e.nt, "what has happened?"

"I have something that I have to tell you." Su Jin's lips curled.

"What is it that you're being this secretive?" Su Yue's heart clenched. Yet, his countenance remained calm as he casually remarked, "you could just have picked up the phone and called me."

"No." Su Jin shook her head, "I wanted to tell you personally."

The earnestness and excitement appeared right in the depth of the girl's eyes and the hand that Su Yue had placed on the sofa trembled a little. Afterward, it was abruptly clenched tight.

"I found a person that could possibly be Ming Xuan jiejie's younger brother!"

"What?" Su Yue suppressed the agitation of her words in the bottom of his heart as his face revealed a trace of suspicion, "since when did Ming Xuan have a younger brother?"

"Ming Xuan jiejie actually has a twin……"

Satisfied once she saw her brother's expression, Su Jin smiled as little by little, she recounted the whole affair to him.

Through the empty and silent s.p.a.ce, the girl's soft voice flowed unhurriedly and gradually, the excitement and joy in Su Jin's heart settled.

No wonder this was why Lu Xi had previously replied about giving him an answer today. Yet, in the end, he did not contact him for an entire day. As it turned out though, the reply was waiting right here, just for him.

Only…… If he went along with Su Jin's account; his eyebrows furrowed slightly.

At that time, when Lu Xi had informed him about the high possibility, he didn't recall him mentioning the matter of their bone marrow compatibility.

Then, how in the world did Lu Xi know that Xue Kai could be Ming Xuan's younger twin brother?
