Chapter 174: Chapter 174: Now You Actually Know How to Coax People?

That woman could send a man like Song Sinian, who was indifferent to women, into a whirl, and a playboy like Justin would certainly find it even harder to escape her clutches.

Seeing Song Keren’s reply, Xia Wenjin’s eyes instantly narrowed with joy, “Since that’s the case, I have a good plan. Our school is going to shoot a promotional film soon, Lu Zhaozhao…”

In the darkness of the night, the glow of her phone screen shimmered, and a dangerous aura billowed throughout the night…

Yuqing University’s collection for the promotional film shoot, although it came from internal school forums, was virtually public due to Lu Zhaozhao and Xia Wenjin being on the list.

Xia Wenjin wanted to pull some strings, but there was no helping it–the fans of Lu Zhaozhao and Xia Wenyan were too strong, breaking Lu Zhaozhao’s first-place vote count.

Lu Zhaozhao became the deserved selection for the shoot, but the Lu Family had sponsored the school with a lot of money for the filming slots, and the school had no choice but to expand the two spots for the promotional film to four.

So, early in the morning, Lu Zhaozhao and Xia Wenjin were sent to Shangjing’s film and television city for makeup with two other male students from the school.

“I heard that there are quite a few crews filming here; I wonder if we’ll get to see any celebrities later.”

It was too quiet in the makeup room, and the first to break the silence was Zhang Tao, who had come to the film city with them.

They all went to the same school and naturally knew that Lu Zhaozhao and Xia Wenjin did not get along.

Now, under these circumstances, they could only try to liven up the mood.

Lin Xing, who was nearby, smiled and joked, “Speaking of celebrities, we have one in our school. I heard Xia Wenjin has already signed with an entertainment company. She’ll be a big star soon, right?”

Xia Wenjin didn’t feel like engaging with the two boys in front of her, but thinking of the plan later on, she narrowed her eyes and said with a fake smile, “I’m just lucky, that’s all.”

His sentence left them both at a loss for words.

Lin Xing and Zhang Tao exchanged glances, unsure whether to continue speaking.

They glanced at Lu Zhaozhao next to them, thinking that she was previously the precious daughter of the Lu Family and now so popular, she must be even more aloof, right?

Zhang Tao braced himself and said, “Lu, I heard your brother is a big star; does he know this film base well? We’re probably going to be filming here all day, having someone familiar to introduce…”

Zhang Tao’s voice got quieter and quieter, eventually fading out altogether.

Lu Zhaozhao’s eyebrows lifted slightly; though a bit puzzled, she still replied, “I don’t know if he’s familiar, but I can send a message to ask him.”

“Really?” Zhang Tao seemed surprised that Lu Zhaozhao was so approachable, his face lighting up with joy.

Lin Xing also looked excitedly at Lu Zhaozhao, “Then, then can I get an autographed photo? I really like Xia Wenyan!”

“He…” Lu Zhaozhao was about to speak when Xia Wenjin interjected, “Xia Wenyan’s schedule is so tight, he wouldn’t waste his time for a sister he’s only recently gotten to know, you’ve all been seeing just a persona, deliberately crafted for outsiders.”

Xia Wenjin said this while pointedly provoking Lu Zhaozhao, “Do you dare to call Xia Wenyan in front of everyone right now?”

She didn’t believe that a man like Xia Wenjin, who took entering the entertainment industry so seriously, would drop his schedule just to come and find Lu Zhaozhao.

Lu Zhaozhao glanced disdainfully at Xia Wenjin, “I have no need to prove anything to you.”

But Xia Wenjin was relentless, “Is it that you don’t need to prove it, or that you simply can’t?”

Seeing the tension between Lu Zhaozhao and Xia Wenjin flare up, Lin Xing and Zhang Tao quickly stepped in to smooth things over.

“We, we were just asking casually, it doesn’t matter whether he comes or not…”

“Right, right, we’re here to shoot, that’s what’s important, isn’t it?”

The more anxious the two became, the more delighted Xia Wenjin looked at Lu Zhaozhao, as if she had achieved some sort of victory.

Lu Zhaozhao watched Xia Wenjin’s triumphant expression with complete disbelief at her attempt to provoke her.

Previously, Xia Wenqing had chatted with her about Xia Wenjin’s relationship with her brothers within the Xia Family.

Even with Xia Wenyan, who had the best relationship with her, there wasn’t much closeness, so Xia Wenjin’s sudden, passionate pampering of her, an outsider, was automatically categorized as “public persona.”

Lu Zhaozhao hadn’t initially planned to contact Xia Wenyan, but seeing her smug look, she instantly changed her mind.

“After thinking about it, I do indeed want to ask if there’s a place nearby that sells milk tea…” Thus, Lu Zhaozhao took out her phone, in front of several people, and dialed Xia Wenyan’s number.

“Doo-doo-doo…”

The phone had barely rung once before it was quickly picked up, “Hello? Zhaozhao?”

Xia Wenyan’s voice on the other end was clearly tinged with a surprise inflection.

Lu Zhaozhao glanced at Xia Wenjin and said indifferently, “Our school is shooting a promotional video at the film and television base…”

“Alright, I’ll be right over!” Before Lu Zhaozhao could finish, Xia Wenyan immediately blurted out.

Seeing this, Lu Zhaozhao hurriedly interrupted, “No, no, I just wanted to ask if there’s any fun place here, or if there’s any good milk tea shop or something?”

Xia Wenyan on the phone clearly fell silent for a moment, then pleaded pitifully after a while, “There are, but do you really not need me to come? I promise to be good and quiet, and not disturb your filming~”

Now, not only Lin Xing and Zhang Tao were doubting their own lives, but even Xia Wenjin was starting to question things.

Was that the arrogant Xia Wenyan?

He usually speaks without thinking, and now he knows how to cajole people?

Lu Zhaozhao hesitated for a moment at Xia Wenyan’s pitiful tone, “There are other students from our school here, too…”

“I promise not to disturb them, let me come, please~”

“…”

“Please let me come, please, good Zhaozhao~~please, please~~”

“…”

The corners of Lu Zhaozhao’s mouth twitched; anyone who didn’t know better would think she was being asked to do something monumental.

She was about to speak when she saw Lin Xing and Zhang Tao looking at her with eager eyes, their looks of envy and admiration nearly setting Lu Zhaozhao on fire.

They hadn’t seen less of Xia Wenyan’s posts about spoiling his sister online; now they truly felt what it meant to be a sister-obsessed + pampering maniac.

It was clear that Xia Wenyan was holding back a lot on the outside, but when it came to Lu Zhaozhao, he was even using coquetry.

Xia Wenjin was also clearly impacted; she had just provoked Lu Zhaozhao, simply wanting to make her look bad.

After all, how could a straight guy like Xia Wenyan possibly know how to woo someone? But, against all odds…

She bit her lip in frustration, thinking of the plan for later, her brows knotted into a knot.

She absolutely couldn’t let Xia Wenyan show up, otherwise her and Song Keren’s plan might go down the drain!
