Cai Yinong's voice echoed throughout the restaurant.

Liu Shishi shrank back in her seat, staring intently at her phone, covering her mouth to prevent herself from making a sound and being discovered.

If Sister K finds out that she was with Wang Weili, then there will be no way to clear her name.

By the way, what did Sister K say on the phone?

Wang Weili wants to terminate his contract? The company's resources are all being poured into him, why would he want to terminate the contract?

Liu Shishi stared at Wang Weili with wide eyes, and the next second, her expression gradually turned to astonishment.

Faced with Cai Yinong's imposing and captivating barrage of questions, Wang Weili showed no panic whatsoever. Instead, he calmly wiped his mouth with a tissue.

He twirled a napkin between his fingers and brought it to his lips with an elegant gesture, his gaze fixed on his phone on the table with such unhurried ease.

Cai Yinong's cursing continues.

"You and Lin Gengxin signed with the company in the same year."

"The company originally planned for you to play the Fourteenth Prince, but you said you wanted to finish your studies first. But what's the real story? You just didn't want to shave your head, didn't you?"

"Let bygones be bygones. Last year, I arranged for you to star in 'Xuan-Yuan Sword,' with Hu Ge and Shi Shi carrying you on your journey, and you actually went to see Nazha while filming... Do you have any conscience at all?!"

Liu Shishi's astonished gaze turned to disdain.

Regardless of the circumstances, the fact that Wang Weili had a romantic relationship with Nazha while filming is an unavoidable topic in the world of Tangren.

Even rabbits don't eat the grass near their burrows, but you actually did...

"Ahem, Sister K, I need to clarify something."

Wang Weili placed the folded napkin next to his phone, rested his fingers on the table, and said, "Naza and I are just friends, we haven't violated any company rules..."

"What nonsense are you spouting! With her love-struck mind, how could you possibly be just friends with her? Stop with the useless talk, tell me what this lawyer is all about!"

After speaking for a while, Cai Yinong's tone had calmed down somewhat.

While she waited, Liu Shishi pursed her lips and looked up at Wang Weili.

Wang Weili looked down at his phone, his expression unreadable, while he smiled and shrugged.

"K-sister, what are you wearing today?"

"What?"

Cai Yinong voiced her doubts, and Liu Shishi took in those doubts.

It's reasonable to suspect that if Liu Shishi had stayed at Wang Weili's house longer, her acting skills might have improved rapidly...

Wait, what the hell is this problem?

When someone comes to confront you, don't immediately ask them: "What are you wearing today?"

This kind of completely unrelated question is something that neither Cai Yinong nor Liu Shishi can understand.

Wang Weili's smile deepened: "Don't you think that a person's clothing style can reflect their mood that day?"

"Are you kidding me? Like last month when you said you wanted to terminate the contract, and then you sent me a phone charm as a joke?"

Despite her unfriendly tone, Cai Yinong was not swayed by the topic of clothing.

Liu Shishi only then realized that Wang Weili had wanted to terminate his contract last month.

What was this guy thinking? "Xuan-Yuan Sword" only premiered at the beginning of this month. Did he really think that Sugar Man would agree to the male lead terminating his contract at this time?

Wang Weili didn't respond to Cai Yinong's question, and continued, "The pendant is just a small gift. Friends always exchange gifts. K-sister, you confirmed from the beginning that we are friends."

"No friend will betray or break off a contract repeatedly!"

Wang Weili chuckled softly, and Liu Shishi was certain that her voice had reached Cai Yinong's ears on the other end of the phone.

"Let's not talk about terminating the contract yet. You still haven't answered me what you're wearing today?"

"..."

Cai Yinong was clearly stunned on the other end, and Liu Shishi's gaze toward Wang Weili also revealed a hint of disdain.

After a long pause, Cai Yinong finally answered: "Black coat, beige short-sleeved shirt, trousers, high heels... Do you want to know anything else?"

"The theme is black, and it seems you're in a bit of a gloomy mood today. This isn't a good time to discuss terminating the contract, but I still suggest you seriously consider my request first, and try not to be too drastic in your response. That's all for now."

Wang Weili hung up the phone, not giving Cai Yinong another chance to speak.

After doing all this, Wang Weili looked up at Liu Shishi.

Liu Shishi's expression shifted, and she was about to say something when Wang Weili spoke first: "Have you finished eating?"

"Um."

"There's one radish cake left, let's not waste it."

"it is good."

Compared to her desire to persuade Wang Weili to stay, the heat was clearly not within Liu Shishi's consideration.

Just as she was poking at the radish cake with her chopsticks and putting it in her mouth, she suddenly heard a series of cracking sounds from across the table.

Liu Shishi puffed out her cheeks and looked over, only to see Wang Weili holding up his phone as if nothing had happened.

"You took pictures of me without my permission!!"

"Taking a picture in front of you doesn't count as taking a candid photo; it's just capturing a moment."

"What do you want to do?"

"During the time I was negotiating with the company to terminate my contract, I did not want my life to be disturbed."

Wang Weili put down his phone, picked up the coffee that had gone cold on the table, took a sip, and then looked at Liu Shishi.

"So I need to keep something on you to prevent you from bringing people from your company to my house after you leave. That would be too troublesome."

"Holy crap!"

Liu Shishi thought to herself, "If you're going to terminate your contract with the company, don't drag me into this!"

"Delete the photos for me."

"sure."

Wang Weili's quick agreement surprised Liu Shishi.

She withdrew her hand from Wang Weili, crossed it protectively in front of her chest, leaned back in her chair, and couldn't help but start speculating about all sorts of conspiracies:

Something's wrong, something's very wrong!

If he was willing to delete the photos, why did he take them in the first place? Did he have them saved on his phone?

Ugh... Last night, I slept in his living room like this. If he wanted to do something...

The fear of the unknown often runs deepest in our bones.

Liu Shishi's self-constructed conspiracy theory frightened her so much that she began to tremble uncontrollably, her swaying body resembling a slender, solitary bamboo shoot, lacking only the rustling of falling bamboo leaves.

A smile flickered in Wang Weili's eyes as he picked up his phone: "Are you sure you want to delete it? I can do it now, and then I'll delete the records in the recycle bin too."

"No, there's no need to delete it."

Liu Shishi shrank back and raised her hand to stop them, fearing that the originally not-so-serious photo would be replaced with other, more serious versions.

Wang Weili continued, "It's nothing, you can go back now! I have some leverage over you, so I'm not worried about you bringing people over."

This confident tone made Liu Shishi, who had just calmed down, even more flustered.

Her hands and feet turned cold, her lips paled, and she stared at Wang Weili: "Could I stay here a few more days?"

"Um?"

Wang Weili was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself, "Are you preparing food?"

"Last night, K and I were drinking with some kind of boss at the hotel when a bunch of paparazzi barged in... K suggested I stay at the hotel for a few days to avoid trouble, but I think your place is more comfortable than the hotel."

Liu Shishi narrowed her eyes and gave a seemingly plausible but ultimately flawed reason.

In reality, what she was thinking was: If I leave now, who knows how much dirt you have on me? I might as well stay and find a chance to get your phone and figure things out, and while I'm at it, I can also gather information and help Sister K teach you a lesson, you little bastard!

As for personal safety, Liu Shishi felt safe last night and that staying a few more days wouldn't be dangerous.

Looking at Liu Shishi's resolute expression, Wang Weili remained silent for a few seconds before saying, "You wipe the table clean and take out the trash; consider it payment for the room."
