Chapter 405 An Encounter in the Parking Lot: The Movie Star Lost in Thought

Tang Xiaoge: [I know a good restaurant in Hengdian. I'll message you when I get there.]

Ning Yao: [Okay, it's on me. You can pick any place you like. [I'm super rich.gif]]

In a corner of the indoor studio, Tang Xiaoge was staring blankly at her phone screen. After a while, she let out a soft laugh.

He was the center of attention in his own right. Even if he didn't say a word and just sat there like a statue, he would attract the attention of those around him. Now that he smiled, even his busy manager, Ji Qin, turned her head to look at him curiously.

Ji Qin, who is always sensitive to the emotions of the artists she manages, quickly noticed that something was wrong; Tang Xiaoge rarely laughed while looking at her phone.

"What are you looking at?" Ji Qin asked with a smile as she walked past Tang Xiaoge, pretending to be casual.

Tang Xiaoge was genuinely startled by Ji Qin's voice, her heart clenched, but she didn't show it on her face: "It's nothing, just a small news item."

"Oh? What news?" Ji Qin pressed on relentlessly, clearly showing her extreme distrust of Tang Xiaoge's words.

Laughing like that, it's impossible that he's watching the news; he's probably looking at a beautiful woman.

Ji Qin was completely unaware that she had only guessed half of it correctly.

There were beautiful women, but Tang Xiaoge wasn't looking at the women themselves, but rather at his chat history with them.

"A pet hamster was passing by the kitchen when it became curious about the oil pan on the fire. So it stuck its head out to take a look, slipped, and fell in, instantly becoming a deep-fried hamster."

Tang Xiaoge's words were sinister, clearly implying that Ji Qin should mind her own business and that curiosity killed the mouse.

Ji Qin disagreed. She wasn't stupid and understood Tang Xiaoge's meaning. However, she was capable enough to become Tang Xiaoge's manager and wasn't easily intimidated. So she glanced at Tang Xiaoge, who was exuding a powerful aura, and whispered her advice.

"Brother Xiao, this is just a friendly reminder. If you find yourself in a relationship, you must let me know immediately. I will notify the PR department in advance to make preparations for you. Also, you must be extremely careful when you meet. Don't let anyone take any photos or videos that could give you any ammunition. These days, the entertainment media are not to be trifled with."

"I understand." Tang Xiaoge didn't take it seriously, then looked up at the filming equipment on the studio stage not far away, where the staff were already ready.

"How long until it starts?" Tang Xiaoge asked, referring to his interview program.

Ji Qin glanced at the schedule. She had confirmed the broadcast time with the staff before coming and said without hesitation, "About five minutes. What's wrong? Is something the matter?"

"Five minutes is enough. Go do your work. Don't just stand here like a block of wood." Tang Xiaoge raised her hand and waved it, clearly expressing her displeasure at being asked to leave.

After saying that, he lowered his head and continued looking at his phone, which displayed restaurant recommendations near the vertical store.

Ji Qin glanced at her artist with a resentful look. Just as she was about to peek at Tang Xiaoge's phone, she saw that the person in question had reached out and blocked the screen.

Ji Qin cursed inwardly, but maintained a smile on her face.

Once an artist becomes famous, they're treated like royalty, pampered and spoiled, and no longer listen to their manager. Her mentor was absolutely right!

Ji Qin turned and left, but at the same time she began a secret investigation. She wanted to know which person in the industry Tang Xiaoge had taken a liking to.

Judging from Tang Xiaoge's personality, the person she likes is most likely to be beautiful and have a strong personality, definitely not an ordinary girl.

Who could it be?

As Ji Qin walked, she thought to herself, feeling as if a tiny hand was tickling her heart, making her incredibly itchy.

After finishing the interview, Tang Xiaoge immediately pulled up her car, said goodbye to Ji Qin, and left.

The shop was some distance from where he was, so he had to drive fast, otherwise he wouldn't be able to get there on time.

Since filming wrapped on "The Commander's Wife," Tang Xiaoge has not seen Ning Yao again. He longs to see her, not for any other reason than simply wanting to see her and feel the satisfaction of being by her side.

After a frantic drive, Tang Xiaoge finally arrived at a restaurant near Hengdian at 12:05.

This restaurant was specially chosen by him. It had excellent online reviews, an elegant environment, and good food. It was considered the best restaurant within a ten-mile radius of Hengdian.

Ning Yao happened to walk into the restaurant's parking lot. Tang Xiaoge was still sitting in the driver's seat. Just by glancing casually, he saw the tall woman walking slowly towards him in the rearview mirror.

Even though she was wearing a baseball cap and a mask, obscuring her features, Tang Xiaoge could still tell that the person was Ning Yao.

Her long, dark hair was gently tucked into a baseball cap, with strands cascading down her back, a few swaying gently around her collarbone as she walked. She wore a fitted light blue dress, her skin whiter than snow, a delicate white bracelet on her wrist, and white casual shoes. Her curvaceous figure and elegant demeanor were impeccable, enough to make any woman who passed by feel ashamed.

Tang Xiaoge was stunned, completely ignoring what the parking attendant next to her was saying.

Strangely enough, he has seen a lot of beautiful women since he entered the entertainment industry, but only Ning Yao has touched his heart.

"Sir? Can you hear me?" The young man, wearing white gloves, directed Tang Xiaoge to park the car. Seeing that the person in question was not responding and was blocking the road, he called out several times.

Tang Xiaoge blocked the road in and out of the restaurant parking lot, causing traffic congestion and affecting customers arriving later.

The young man was so anxious that his voice rose several decibels, until a clear, cold female voice rang out, and Tang Xiaoge suddenly realized what was happening, her face turning red.

“Teacher Tang?” Ning Yao walked to the car and happened to see the man in the driver’s seat. She had worked with Tang Xiaoge before, so she naturally recognized him.

"I'll be right there after I park the car. You go in first." Tang Xiaoge coughed lightly, feeling a mix of emotions.

"Okay, I'll go in first then, see you later." Ning Yao nodded and followed the hostess at the door into the room, where she found a private room with a good view and took a seat.

Following the parking attendant's instructions, Tang Xiaoge clumsily parked the car, then stretched out her long arm, opened the car door, and got out.

As she walked, Tang Xiaoge absentmindedly recalled what had just happened.

It wasn't the first time they'd met, so why was he so completely unmoved? He stared at her, mesmerized, and even forgot to park the car.

Fortunately, he was wearing a mask, so no one could notice the burning heat on his cheeks, otherwise he would have been extremely embarrassed. Tang Xiaoge thought to himself with immense relief.

Tang Xiaoge took deep breaths the whole way, constantly reminding herself to restrain herself when facing Ning Yao, as Ning Yao had a boyfriend.

Tang Xiaoge was really afraid that Ning Yao would find out something and stop being his friend.

Before Tang Xiaoge came up, Ning Yao casually ordered a few appetizers, leaving the main course for Tang Xiaoge to decide.

The door to the private room creaked open, and Ning Yao looked up at Tang Xiaoge as he entered. She stood up and greeted him with a smile, "Teacher Tang, please sit down."

Ning Yao took off her mask and baseball cap in the private room, revealing her delicate and aloof face to Tang Xiaoge without reservation. Accompanied by Ning Yao's melodious voice, Tang Xiaoge almost lost his composure on the spot.
