After taking Hu Manyin across the red carpet and finding seats inside, the three of them finally had time to talk some more.
Mostly, they talked with Hu Manyin.
Bai Youlou and Old Zhou had already exchanged a round of meaningful looks.
Old Zhou raised an eyebrow. "That girl didn't want anything to do with you when she was filming with you."
Bai Youlou said, "I forgot."
Old Zhou asked, "So what do we do now?"
Bai Youlou said, "What's done is done."
To be honest, he did remember what had happened during filming.
Hu Manyin really had kept her distance from him back then.
Bai Youlou suddenly felt completely justified. It's not that I didn't invite you to Cannes, but you didn't even leave me your contact information. How was I supposed to invite you?
As for what Hu Manyin had done back then, he thought it was perfectly normal.
If he hadn't been acting crazy at the time, even the crew members would have disliked him, let alone a female entertainer trying to make it in show business.
But the current situation had taken a rather dramatic turn in the opposite direction.
Bai Youlou wasn't particularly magnanimous. Since she had been cold to him before, he wasn't about to throw himself at her now.
How pathetic would that be?
Rescuing her on the red carpet just now could count as repaying her "mercenary" favor.
They were even now, okay?
That was what he told himself, but when Hu Manyin instinctively lowered her hands while sitting there, Bai Youlou still couldn't help taking a few extra glances.
Hey. How could you wear Pinru's clothes?
The evening gown was obviously ill-fitting.
But from the perspective of handing out benefits, it was pretty great.
Looking once was instinct. Looking only once
