The group on break was watching the love triangle unfold, none daring to speak up, especially with the domineering CEO present. Ji Yan squatted beside Jian Qinzhi, intrigued by Jian Qinzhi's calm demeanor while glancing at Nie Yi and Yun Zhi Yue, who were busy with their own affairs.
Yun Zhi Yue's expression was blank as she remarked, "We haven't reached the part where guests express their feelings yet, so Mr. Nie, perhaps it's best to hold off on any performances."
With a hint of sarcasm, she thought to herself that despite her efforts over the past few days being overshadowed by his affection for someone else, it felt as if standing on stage could instantly make her a top star. Aware of Nie Yi's lack of focus on work, she added, "Please take a good look at the financial report for Prosperous Era; eighty percent of the income is from my appearance fees."
In essence, she was the cash cow for Prosperous Era, and while it was normal for him to support her, personally, he was exactly the type she disliked. His love was better directed towards those who needed it; she certainly didn’t have the fortune to digest it.
Seeing Nie Yi’s expression darken further, Han Ling felt relieved and returned to her seat; after all, it wasn’t just her who was embarrassed.
"Well said! Support the Moon! The toxic CEO of Prosperous Era is truly irritating. Isn’t there a contract with the moon? Just switch jobs!"
"Exactly! Just yesterday he was photographed with his new love, and today he’s in love again. What kind of person is that?"
Noticing the atmosphere grow tense, the director quickly called for a meal to lighten things up. The table set for eight featured a lavish seafood feast while another table had simple congee and pickles—a stark contrast.
The host pointed at the large pot of congee beside them and cheerfully announced, "There’s plenty of congee; if anyone feels they need more, help yourselves!"
They thought that once they started eating, there would be less chatter. However, with Nie Yi around, the drama continued unabated. The guests were seated in small groups; Yun Zhi Yue and Jian Qinzhi were close together while Yun Xiaoxiao squeezed in on the other side.
Nie Yi could only sit across from Yun Zhi Yue while Jian Qinzhi picked up a piece of Red King Crab meat. He immediately intercepted Yun Zhi Yue’s chopsticks and warned, "You’re about to start your period; don’t eat anything cold."
Yun Zhi Yue could no longer hold back her frustration as she noticed Zhang Song standing near the camera, keeping an eye on Nie Yi. After a moment of silence, Zhang Song stepped forward to push aside the cameraman and redirect the camera away from Nie Yi's table.
"What’s going on? Why did the camera shift?"
To encourage closeness among everyone at the table, it wasn’t very large; they could easily kick each other’s legs across from one another.
Yun Zhi Yue smiled as she replied playfully, "Mr. Nie is joking about true love; I already finished my period early. Men who talk too much are even less appealing."
Her tone seemed lighthearted, but under the table, her leg kicked forcefully against his.
Nie Yi let out a muffled grunt and rubbed his knee before retaliating in kind.
With a smile on his face, he said, "Really? If I remember correctly, haven't you been taking care of yourself lately, leading to this early arrival?"
"How could that be? Nie Zong, it's better not to talk nonsense. With so many women around, my memory gets all mixed up," he replied.
Yun Zhi Yue, who had also received a kick, grimaced in pain and stood up, splashing her drink in his direction.
Nie Yi dodged to the side without hesitation and retaliated by throwing his drink back at her. Their playful bickering was nothing new; they knew each other's moves well, and Yun Zhi Yue managed to evade him.
In perfect sync, they left their seats and began to tussle, pulling hair and tugging at ears while chatting animatedly.
"This ivory clam sashimi is pretty good; you should try it."
"It really is good! This cold sea cucumber is nice too; you should have a taste."
The entire production team and all the guests watched in stunned silence at this chaotic scene.
Grabbing Nie Yi by the collar, Yun Zhi Yue tripped him with her leg. "This shrimp is also quite nice; everyone should give it a try."
Nie Yi took the opportunity to pull Yun Zhi Yue down as well, gripping her neck. "This shrimp seems a bit stale. Is the production team short on funds? Prosperous Era could sponsor us."
Yun Zhi Yue couldn't speak as her neck was held tightly.
Deciding not to struggle anymore, she grabbed Nie Yi's neck in return, and they both exerted force together.
【Wait, everything seemed normal today, but why do I feel like something's off?】
【Yeah, what does it mean when we can't see each other while talking?】
