CHAPTER 314: AFTER THE AUDITION

Wen Nuan smiled faintly. "I suggest you go home and put some ice on that. I hit pretty hard."

Linda was furious. "Han Bi, did this wretch hit you?"

Cai Xiaojing’s face darkened, and she said with a hint of anger, "Linda, watch your mouth. A wretch sees everyone as a wretch."

"Cai Xiaojing, you..."

"Linda, let’s go," Han Bi said. She put on a wide-brimmed hat to cover her face and had her bodyguards block the reporters while they brought the car closer. Reporters were waiting outside and would definitely ask about the audition.

Watching them leave in a large group, Wen Nuan asked guiltily, "Was I really too much?"

"Not at all. You did great. I know you’ve wanted to hit her for a long time," Cai Xiaojing said, smiling. "But honestly, Wen Nuan, you hit her pretty hard."

Wen Nuan held out her hand. "I know. Look, my hand is all red. It hurts. I don’t know what happened. When I got in front of her, I forgot all my lines. I only had two words in my head: ’Hit her.’ My head was so heated I just hit her."

"You really are something... It’s fine. Didn’t you feel bad about your money today? At least you let out some steam," Cai Xiaojing said with a smile. The two of them went outside. Han Bi and Linda had already left without giving any interviews to the reporters. A few reporters came up to Wen Nuan and asked about her audition.

Wen Nuan nodded and said with a smile, "I think it went well."

"Miss Wen, does that mean you have a chance to play Liang Hongyu?" a reporter asked.

Wen Nuan gave a knowing smile. "I think you’ll have to ask Director Lin about that."

Cai Xiaojing smiled and greeted the reporters, making an excuse that they had to get to another appointment. The two of them got into their car and left the studio.

It was already four in the afternoon.

It was afternoon tea time. Cai Xiaojing wanted to drive Wen Nuan home, but Wen Nuan asked her to take her to Anning International instead. She had a date with Ye Feimo. They stopped by Starbucks, and Wen Nuan bought two hot milk teas, some cake, and pastries to bring to the office.

Cai Xiaojing wasn’t returning to the office that afternoon, so she dropped Wen Nuan off at the entrance of the Anning International building. After they waved goodbye, Wen Nuan went inside, and Cai Xiaojing drove away.

As soon as she entered the Anning International lobby, her phone rang. It was her mom. "Nuan Nuan, Liu Cheng is here. Do you want to come back? He doesn’t know you’re married yet. Should I tell him?"

"Brother Liu Cheng?" Wen Nuan stopped walking and looked at the pastries and milk tea in her hands. She smiled faintly. "Mom, I’m at Anning with Feimo. We’ll be home together later. You can explain it to Brother Liu Cheng. I’ll find a time to meet him for a meal."

"Are you sure?" her mom asked, a little uncertain. "Didn’t you want to keep your marriage a secret?"

"He won’t tell anyone," Wen Nuan said with a smile. Her mom nodded and sighed softly. Wen Nuan hung up the phone. She and Ye Feimo had just returned, and she had expected to run into Fang Liucheng, but not so soon.

She let out a sigh of relief. She had completely moved on from that fruitless relationship.

She also hoped that Fang Liucheng could do the same and find his own happiness.

When she first found out she had been with the wrong person and was in the wrong room, she had thought about how unlucky she was. Along with her bankruptcy, all the sad things had piled up, and she was under a lot of stress.

She had once regretted her impulsiveness and recklessness, but now she was very glad that it was Ye Feimo.

Ye Feimo was very efficient. He had also trained a group of talented people. While he was in Rome, the company ran smoothly, so he only needed to review and approve major projects.

He felt refreshed after playing golf, and with the good things happening recently, he was in a great mood.

When Wen Nuan arrived, he was waiting for a report from the media department. He had taken a break to play a game and was getting rid of monsters with Kaka, who he had grown up with. Their bond was just as strong as with his own brothers.

Kaka had just returned to England from the base two days ago, and the two had been in contact.

When he saw Wen Nuan, Ye Feimo sent Kaka a text message. "My wife is here. Go play by yourself."

"Wife?????????????? Feimo, have you really abandoned me?????????????????" Kaka’s screen was filled with question marks, and Ye Feimo promptly quit the game.

"You were playing a game?" Wen Nuan asked in surprise. She had always thought he was very busy.

"Just a couple of rounds."

"Afternoon tea," Wen Nuan said, holding up the items in her hands. She sat on the sofa and put her bag down.

Ye Feimo got up and walked over. "Why are you so early?"

He thought Wen Nuan wouldn’t arrive until after five.

"Did you watch the live broadcast of the audition today?" Wen Nuan asked. A lot of people had gone today, including Li Yuanyuan and Yang Yang, but after she and Han Bi had left. Wen Nuan had only met them once and didn’t know them well, so she hadn’t gone to say hello.

"No," Ye Feimo said. He leaned in to kiss Wen Nuan. Her cheek was a little cold from the wind, but her lips felt nice. Wen Nuan’s ears felt warm, and she gave him the milk tea and pastries.

"You’re always feeding me sweets. I’m going to get fat in two years," Ye Feimo said while drinking his milk tea.

"Fat?"

Wen Nuan gave him a sideways glance. It would be very difficult for him to gain weight with his body. He had a sensitive stomach and was a picky eater. Every time he ordered food, it was a table full of dishes, but he didn’t eat much...

"You’d look better with a little more weight," Wen Nuan said with a smile. She took a sip of her milk tea, ate a piece of cake, and then took out the watch. The moment Ye Feimo saw the box, he knew what it was.

The brand name was on it, after all.

"You bought a watch?" He couldn’t help but feel a rush of happiness. The corners of his lips curled into a slight smile, and his usually cold face couldn’t hide his joyful mood.

This was the first time Wen Nuan had ever bought him a proper gift.

Most importantly, she had noticed that he was missing something and went out to buy it. It meant something different this time.

"It’s a wedding gift," Wen Nuan said, looking down and drinking her tea. Ye Feimo raised an eyebrow. He felt like Wen Nuan said the words "wedding gift" with a hint of gritted teeth.

He assumed Wen Nuan wouldn’t buy him a very expensive watch. If it was six figures, that would be a miracle.

Ye Feimo opened the box, and when he saw the watch, his eyes widened. His big, dark eyes were fixated on it like black grapes. Three seconds later, he slowly turned to look at Wen Nuan.

He knew what kind of person his wife was better than anyone else. She hated spending money, especially on luxury items.

He also had a rough idea of how much money Wen Nuan had. He knew her entire journey. After buying this watch, she probably didn’t have much money left.

He hadn’t even given her the endorsement fee from Anning yet.

Wen Nuan coughed. "Um... do you like it?"
