In the car, Yan Shu nervously asked Jiang Yu, “What did President Qin tell you? Is he going to dig you to his Xingying Media?”

“…No.” Jiang Yu shook his head.

Yan Shu didn’t relax her vigilance, “Then what did he do? How did he know you shortly after you just entered the circle?”

“He was looking for someone…” Jiang Yu vaguely explained, “Last reception, I went into the wrong room. He seemed to be drunk. He was with someone, and he was looking for that person…”

Yan Shu remembered that, because of Gu Zecheng at the reception, she let Jiang Yu go upstairs. No wonder Jiang Yu was not in the room where the waiter said when she went upstairs to find him. Later, Jiang Yu came out of the opposite room, with his face flustered. It turned out that he entered the wrong room and ran into Qin Shen with someone else.

Speaking of this, Mr. Qin only returned from abroad four years ago, went into the Qin Group, kicked his father and younger brother off the board, and spent a year getting the Qin Group back on track. In the past three years, he made the group grow and flourish. He was praised for his career, but she didn’t hear much about him emotionally. Single and rich in gold, there were many people who wanted to climb to his bed, especially in the entertainment circle.

Drunk and looking for someone again. Upon hearing this, she thought to herself, an artist must have been at the reception and wanted to climb into his bed while drunk. Did she succeed? Otherwise why would Qin Shen find her in person?

“When you bumped into them, President Qin and that person…” Yan Shu originally wanted to ask if Qin Shen and that person were doing any unsuitable exercise for children. Seeing Jiang Yu’s confused eyes, she swallowed the words and changed the question, “Are they wearing clothes or not?”

Jiang Yu remembered the scene where Qin Shen choked her neck that night, shaking his head, “No, they are neatly dressed.”

Yan Shu was disappointed, and asked again, “Do you see the person with President Qin?”

Of course Jiang Yu shook his head, “No.”

Yan Shu sighed with regret, she wanted to know which artist was that.

But she’s glad that he was not thinking of digging Jiang Yu. Yan Shu’s heart calmed down and let Xiao Fang drive for dinner.

Jiang Yu was very nervous. Although he managed to lie, he didn’t know whether Qin Shen believed it. He didn’t eat much of his favorite fish for dinner. When he returned to the hotel, he quickly closed the door to send a message to Lin Cheng, and told him that Qin Shen came to him today to ask about the reception.

Lin Cheng called him and asked about what happened at the reception.

Jiang Yu told him about the reception that day, and he couldn’t help biting his lips in annoyance. He was too careless. With so many people at the reception, he should not have started at that time.

“Cheng Cheng, what if he doesn’t believe me?” He sat cross-legged on the sofa, hugging his pillow, and asked helplessly.

If Qin Shen didn’t believe him, he would be wary of him, and it would be troublesome to take items with his aura.

“Don’t worry, let me think about it.” Lin Cheng frowned and thought over the phone. Qin Shen came to Yu Er to inquire, which certainly showed that he wasn’t sure whether it was the pearl left by Yu Er. When Yu Er entered the room, there were only a small artist and Qin Shen. It was probably the small artist that told Qin Shen about Yu Er.

But Yu Er said that the little star was rescued by him and ran away, which meant that there was no evidence, just speculation.

Lin Cheng’s eyes brightened, and he said to the phone, “Yu Er, I have an idea…”

The entire crew knew that Qin Shen came to meet Jiang Yu. Qin Shen’s Xingying Media and Jiang Yu’s Haiyin Entertainment were deadly opponents. At first, it was thought that Qin Shen came to dig Jiang Yu to go to his company. Dig him? The crew was curious why Qin Shen chose to come to Jiang Yu.

Therefore, the next day when Jiang Yu and Xiao Fang arrived at the set, the staff asked Xiao Fang. Qiao Mo leaned on the reclining chair and watched the script absently. When he saw his assistant come back, he raised his eyes and asked, “What did she say?”

The assistant shook his head and whispered, “Nothing, Jiang Yu’s assistant is very strict and said nothing.”

“Stop, Jiang Yu come here, I’ll tell you about the drama again. Your performance was good, but you have to practise again.” Lin Zhen beckoned Jiang Yu for a few words, and waited for Jiang Yu to return to the set. He smiled to the vice director, “I have filmed for so many years, I rarely see new talents like Jiang Yu who is talented in acting and obedient and willing to study hard. This kid has a bright future.”

Qiao Mo took the picture and words of the talented person into his eyes and ears, and looked at Jiang Yu in the set. When he first met the child, he thought he was just a kid that is put here by an investor as a vase, and after a few days he would be scolded by Lin Zhen to cry back to find his master.

Unexpectedly, he was a very talented newcomer, an artist signed by Yan Shu, and had a relationship with Qin Shen.

Why did Qin Shen come to him? What is his relationship with Qin Shen?

Qiao Mo squeezed the script tightly with his fingers, and his mildly smiling eyes flashed a coldness. He whispered to his assistant, “Check Jiang Yu’s background.”

He was checking the information of Jiang Yu, and at the same time, Qin Shen was also checking the information of Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu guessed right, Qin Shen did not fully believe what he said, after all, it was only words.

Fortunately, Lin Cheng knew that by mixing in the circle, he would offend people unknowingly. He was afraid of being checked and spent enough money to change their backgrounds, showing that the two never left their small fishing village near the seaside. If they went to the village, they wouldn’t find anything different.

Qin Shen flipped through the materials and saw his birthplace, he frowned slightly. It turned out that the child came out of a small village. His temperament could not be seen at all,  it was more like a rich young man who was used to being spoiled.

He also saw the date he went to sign into Haiyin Entertainment. It was after he first saw the child. He was lost in thought. It turned out that he had misunderstood him in the corridor that night, and the child was not an entertainer then. He remembered the child’s familiar feeling in his arms that night. If he was not an entertainer, then on the cruise ship…

“President Qin, the auction will start at seven, and we should go.” The assistant knocked into the office and reminded him.

His thoughts were interrupted. Qin Shen frowned and looked at the time. It was half past six. He got up and took his coat.

His grandfather liked to collect antiques. One of the lots at this auction was what his grandfather liked. He saw it in the brochure and he immediately got an invitation to the auction. He was ready to take it and give it to his grandfather.

The auction was held in a club. In the first half, there was no lot that he liked. He went to the bathroom halfway and took a cigarette by the window. When he returned to the auction, the person talked a few words and he waited for a while. The lot he wanted was the finale. He immediately raised the price several times, and finally got the lot.

After going through the formalities, he took the lot and came out of the club. He got into the car and wanted to smoke a cigarette. Suddenly he remembered that the lighter and cigarette was left by the window outside the bathroom. He got out of the car to take them.

At the edge of the window, the cigarette was still on the window sill, but the lighter was gone and replaced by a familiar pearl.

The auction was private and only those who received the invitation could enter, and each inviter could bring a companion. That was to say, in addition to the staff and waiters, there were only the one invited and their companions, and no one else could enter.

Qin Shen immediately approached the person in charge of the auction and showed him a picture of Jiang Yu. The person in charge shook his head with certainty and said with certainty that they had never met Jiang Yu.

Qin Shen frowned and called his assistant to ask if Jiang Yu had left the studio today. However, the news he received was that Jiang Yu had been filming on the set all day and never left. The entire crew could testify.

Hanging up the phone, Qin Shen reached out and squeezed the pearl on the window sill with a pensive look in his eyes. Did he really misunderstood Jiang Yu?
