Chapter 62 Are You Afraid Of Me?
Lilly smiled at the people around the table, and then saw Ziyan, whose face looked a little gloomy, and hurriedly pulled Ziyan over to explain in a low voice, "Ziyan, this, we are..."
But Ziyan interrupted her and said, "Don't worry, I don't care. Dad is doing this to protect me. I understand. Lilly, don't feel pressured. Just treat it as acting. It's just acting anyway."
As soon as she finished speaking, Lilly felt suffocated in her heart. She pulled the corners of her mouth stiffly and swallowed the potatoes that he gave her. The whole meal was like chewing wax.
Fortunately, they didn't have to stay too long; Lilly really didn't know how long she could hold on.
Ethan took his girlfriend to meet Liney today. After dinner, he said hello to the old man and said goodbye.
Lilly and Ziyan followed Ethan and walked out of the hall. The two kept chatting.
Girls always have more topics to talk about, especially since their ages are not much different; there is even more to talk about.
Ziyan didn't stop until the driver drove the car to the front, and then waved goodbye to Ethan reluctantly.
Ethan still had an indifferent look on his face, nodded slightly, and Ziyan got into the car.
Lilly watched the car leave, and suddenly remembered something. He was drunk, so how could he drive her to Romancy?
She turned her eyes to him. Before she opened her mouth, she saw him looking at her with deep eyes and said, "Have you talked enough with Ziyan? Are you willing to look here?"
Lilly's brain froze for several seconds. Why did he sound so jealous?
Jealous of what? Blame her for talking to Ziyan and ignoring him?
How is it possible!
Lilly took a big step back, seeming a little frightened, but actually to warn herself.
She still remembered clearly how he rejected her at the beginning. People like him never go back on their words. If they clearly say they don't want someone the first time, they will never pick him up again.
Absolutely impossible!
Lilly was a little afraid of the glimmer of hope that just emerged in her heart. This was too terrible. How could she think like this! She must have been too immersed in acting today and didn't jump out for a while.
"Why do you retreat so far? Are you afraid of me?" he narrowed his eyes slightly. He drank a lot of wine with the old man at the banquet. His consciousness was a little bit drifting, and he began to lose control of his anxiety.
Kid's words rang in his ears again and again, reminding him that the boyfriend-girlfriend relationship between him and Lilly did not count, and their relationship was still fake!
That's why he couldn't control himself and blurted out the words that seemed to be jealous. It was probably because of her reaction during the acting...
It made him feel that he might still have her in his heart, so he indulged himself in testing her feelings.
But Lilly's current performance, is it disgust? Or escape?
Ethan was confused, took two quick steps, pulled her into his arms, and lowered his head to kiss her.
Lilly quickly turned her head, and his kiss fell on her ear.
"Don't, don't, if you don't leave, I'll be late for the bar." Lilly leaned against his chest and changed the subject.
God has mercy on her. She has been kissed so hard that she can no longer lose her temper. He smells of alcohol, so she just assumes that he is drunk, and like her, he is too immersed in the role and can't get out of it.
He pursed his lips, calmed the throbbing in his heart, let go of Lilly, took out the car keys from his pocket, and stuffed them into her hand, saying, "You drive."
After saying that, he took a long step and walked towards his Panamera.
Lilly covered her hot cheeks and trotted to keep up.
Her driving skills were not as proficient as his, and it was a night drive, so she had to be extremely alert when driving. She didn't talk to him again along the way.
After getting out of the car, Lilly couldn't help but ask the question she had been worried about all the way, "I heard about the Producer's matter. Would you do something too big?"
"Miss Lilly wants to ask about it?" He raised his eyebrows and said in a cold tone, "How much do you know about the entertainment industry?"
"I don't know much," Lilly said seriously, "but my aunt has been there before, and she told me that the entertainment industry is like a sophisticated food chain. If any important part is missing, the chain will."
"Do you think Producer is an important part?" He interrupted her before she finished speaking.
"Should be important?" Lilly asked tentatively, "I don't know how important it is, but from your conversation with the old man, I think he should be a very powerful character, so his status in the entertainment industry must not be too low."
His eyes darkened, and there was a strange glow in them. The girl he liked has always been smart.
"It seems that this is not the first time that Miss Lilly has questioned my ability?" His eyebrows relaxed slightly, and he said something irrelevant.
"How could I?" Lilly subconsciously retorted.
He moved his lips; his voice was as indifferent as water, "And then are you worried about me?"
"Yes," Lilly answered without hesitation.
"Don't worry, just look down," he sneered and said proudly, "See if I can step on him so that he will never have a chance to turn over."
Lilly really didn't understand. He was just an associate professor before. Although she knew that his ability far exceeded the level of an associate professor that was in music.
In just one year, he stepped into the business circle and became very successful. She might be able to understand this.
When she was in college, she occasionally found that he was in contact with the financial world, although she didn't know the reason.
She felt strange. Like Yulia, he almost regarded music as his lover. When did he become interested in business?
In her heart, he was very capable. If he had the heart, he would definitely make some achievements.
It was not until the crisis of her grandmother's enterprise that she realized that he had not only made some achievements, but had reached the top.
But how can the entertainment industry and the business industry be discussed together? In the business industry, he has accumulated a lot of experience, but has he ever touched the entertainment industry? Where did he get his connections? How could he easily move the old hands in this industry?
Lilly became more and more anxious. When she followed him to the Romancy bar, she raised her head and almost bumped into the door of the bar.
