chapter 145 – Pleasure and anger
Phoebe Barnes has really experienced Kemp Ross’ temperamental moods.
She used to think he was emotionless, or at least rarely saw him grumpy, but lately she always felt his obvious anger, and very directly, it was directed at her.
Once he gets angry, the consequences are also unthinkable.
Phoebe Barnes didn’t say anything further, pursed her lips, gave him a look, and silently pushed the door open and got out of the car.
“Drive!”
The two indifferent tones crossed, the car did not stop in the dust and went away.
The wind blew her hair, Phoebe Barnes stood in place for a long time, expressionless, black and white watery eyes like they had turned gray, forlorn and bitter, the sun overhead cold and chilly.
Half a day, the corners of her lips slowly swept a self-deprecating arc, put back on the sunglasses mask, and casually stopped a cab.
…
7:00 p. m., Mirror Lake Autumn Moon.
Phoebe Barnes followed Kelsey Long in her outfit.
Not really dressy, just a little more refined than at home, “Phoenix Tour” starring the first gathering is also considered confidential, very low-key, just booked a large private room in the hotel, the door is also no reporter to follow.
Phoebe Barnes asked Kelsey Long next to her as she walked, “How many actors are here today?”
Kelsey Long counted silently and said, “Not much, just a few main actors, male first, male third, female first and female second, and director, producer, etc.”
“Ohhh.” She’d thought there would be a lot of them, so there was no need to be so nervous.
Saying that, the two along with the waiter has arrived at the door of the private room.
Kelsey Long knocked on the door, then pushed it open, turned her eyes to her and smiled, “Come on in.”
Phoebe Barnes was a little suspicious and looked tentatively towards the inside, then raised her step and walked in.
“Miss Barnes is here.”
The super luxurious private room, plus she probably only a dozen people, but it is estimated that she came the latest, a time when all eyes fell on her.
“Director Zhang, producer Xu, how are you?” Kelsey Long held her and extremely sophisticatedly went up to greet the director and producer first.
Phoebe Barnes, although unknown, politely extended her hand in greeting.
“Hello director Zhang, hello producer Xu.”
“Well, well, Miss Barnes, welcome to the Phoenix Tour,” the director smiled like a flower, then reached out to greet: “Come, come, to introduce you to the rest of the cast of the play, before all in secrecy, I guess you do not know.”
Phoebe Barnes followed the gaze he pointed to, her face changed extremely quickly, somewhat shocked speechless, “When … Shi teacher?”
The man sitting next to the man you can’t take your eyes off is not Ann Shi.
He, how did he get here?
Producer?
I heard that he also invested in film and television dramas, but looking at his face at this time meaningful smile, it is clear that it is not.
But with his status and stature, it’s hard not to?
Her eyes changed mood a lot and suddenly turned to Kelsey Long.
The other side vainly pulled the corner of the lips quickly skimmed the line of sight.
“What? You still don’t know?” Ann Shi’s handsome face looked at her knowingly, pulled his lips and smiled warmly, then stood up and extended his hand formally, “It’s been a long time, I guess we’ll have to see each other a lot in the coming months, I’m playing the role of Dong Fang Heng, I hope we can cooperate happily.”
Phoebe Barnes, “…”
Dong Fang Heng, the male lead in the play.
For a long while did not slow down, she collected the emotions under her eyes, slightly stiff to extend her hand, “When … teacher good.”
The Phoenix Tour, Ann Shi, John Lu, Kelsey Long, is there a connection between these?
Why did she feel like she was caught in a huge trap and was being led by the nose.
Ann Shi seemed to notice her difference and whispered, “I know you’re surprised, I’ll tell you more about it later when I have the chance.”
Phoebe Barnes nodded in a bit of a trance, turned to the person next to her and saw the face again, “…”
It’s a really small world.
“Miss Barnes, hello, I am the second female play … Joyce Baker.” extremely gentle smile Rong, temperament if orchid, eyes looking at Phoebe Barnes very calm.
It was Joyce Baker.
Phoebe Barnes looked at her with some surprise, two months ago, also in this hotel, she bumped into her in a wild fight with a man, two months apart, they met again here.
But from her face but as if nothing had happened, frank and open, as reported in the media outside that temperamental beauty.
Phoebe Barnes smiled warmly in return, “Hello, Mr. Lin!”
Acting, who can not.
Retracting her hand, she was just about to turn her gaze to the next person when, in front of her eyes, there was suddenly a large bouquet of fresh roses, bright red.
She froze.
Immediately after the flowers from behind to reveal a handsome young face, not yet twenty years old, blond hair, face with makeup, like a super idol.
“First time meeting, for you, Sister Phoebe, my name is Gu Zhen, I play Lin Ziyu in the play, one of your suitors.”
This person Phoebe Barnes does not know and has not seen, like a new debutant, but the eyes do not look like.
She politely accepted the flowers, “Thank you.”
Next to Ann Shi glanced at the flowers in her arms, then glanced at Gu Zhen, who was smiling with a happy face, and her eyes darkened silently.
After all the introductions, Phoebe Barnes was about to find a seat.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
Like an ignorant child, Gu Zhen suddenly tugged at the corner of her coat and opened her big bright eyes, “Sister Phoebe, sit by my side.”
Joyce Baker glanced at him and smiled warmly, “Gu Xiaodi, people are female leads, they have to sit with Mr. Shi.”
Phoebe Barnes became instantly embarrassed and glanced at Joyce Baker with a slightly wrinkled brow.
Are you kidding?
Without thinking much about it, she glanced at Ann Shi again and turned her eyes without losing her politeness and smiled at Gu Zhen, “Excuse me, Mr. Gu, I need to find the director for something.”
Gu Zhen took a look at the director, skimmed her pink lips, lost her hand and let go, saying, “Okay, then I’ll look for you later.”
Phoebe Barnes nodded and was about to leave when he tugged on her coat again.
She froze and looked back at him, “Hmm?”
He blinked and smiled innocently, “Sister Phoebe, can you not call me Mr. Gu? I’ve just turned eighteen, call me Zhen or joker.”
Phoebe Barnes, slightly uncomfortable with his enthusiasm, pulled her lips open and smiled, “A, A Zhen, I guess.”
The smiling eyes narrowed into a curve, as dazzling as the ear diamonds on his ears, “Good, I also feel that Zhen is more affectionate, Sister Phoebe will call me Zhen in the future.”
Ann Shi has been smiling lightly and the producer chatting about something, as if he did not see what happened over there, only when Phoebe Barnes left Gu Zhen’s side, the smile on his lips Rong slightly deepened a few points.
A very large round table with Phoebe Barnes sitting with the director on her left, Kelsey Long on her right, and Gu Zhen and his agent on the far opposite side, with Ann Shi also separated by a few people.
She took the opportunity to whisper down and ask Kelsey Long, “Who is that Gu Zhen?”
