Chapter 217: Ask Me Directly

Xiaoxiao laughed awkwardly. “That’s not true. President Song asked me a question. Isn’t that equivalent to a leader checking my work? If I don’t know anything about your situation, won’t he think that I’m not responsible enough? So I can only tell the truth.”
Lu Zhen gritted her teeth. “If he asks anything related to me again in the future, get him to ask me directly.”
“Okay!” Xiaoxiao agreed readily.
After Song Jia entered the room, he inserted the room card and looked around.
The decoration of the room was not novel. It was simple and clean. He washed a glass and went to the water dispenser to get a glass of water. After drinking the water, he turned on his cell phone and ordered some food. Then, he took off his jacket and took out a pair of light-colored home pants from his bag.
After changing out of his pants, Song Jia sat on the only big bed in the room.
The bed was not very soft. He gently stroked the white bedsheets and imagined Lu Zhen sleeping on this bed at night.
To be honest, he was also very surprised when Lu Zhen asked him to rest in his room. Then, Lu Zhen’s expression quickly changed, probably realizing that she had said something wrong.
However, Song Jia made do with it and asked Lu Zhen for the room card. Actually, he knew in his heart that there was no need for him to do this. It would be very convenient for him to get another room in another hotel.
He just couldn’t help it.
Not long after, the takeout arrived. Song Jia brought the takeout in and took out the sushi from the lunch box. Just as he ate one, Lu Zhen’s assistant, Sun
Xiao, sent him a message.
“Boss, you’re here?” After a few exchanges, Sun Xiao and Song Jia were even
more familiar with each other. The topic of their conversation basically revolved around Lu Zhen.
Song Jia replied, “Yes.”
It seemed like Lu Zhen had told her.
“Then rest well, Boss. By the way, Sister Zhenzhen said that if you have anything to ask her in the future, don’t ask me. Just ask her.”
“Okay.”
Looking at Song Jia’s simple reply, Xiaoxiao couldn’t guess if Song Jia agreed readily or reluctantly. Forget it. Anyway, this was between the two of them. Why should she worry so much?
It was almost noon, and Lu Zhen had finished filming in the morning. There was still a scene at night. On the way back to the hotel, Lu Zhen hesitated about whether to treat Song Jia to a meal.
Lu Zhen returned to the hotel. Because she didn’t have a room card, she could only knock. Soon, the door opened. Song Jia was wearing a light gray wool sweater and light-colored home pants. The man’s hair was also a little messy.
“You’re back,” Song Jia said and pulled the door open.
Lu Zhen instantly had a strange feeling. Why did this atmosphere feel like a husband at home waiting for his wife to come home? She quickly stopped her terrifying imagination. After entering, Lu Zhen looked at her bed. It was a little different from before she left. Her heart trembled violently. She had slept in the same bed as Song Jia, right?
Seeing Lu Zhen’s gaze drift to the bed, Song Jia wanted to laugh. He did sleep for a while just now, but he slept directly on the blanket with his jacket covering him. He was not that thick-skinned. He did not sleep under the blanket that she had slept in.
However, when he lay down, he could vaguely smell a faint fragrance. Part of it was the smell of skincare products and shower gel. There was also a trace of Lu Zhen’s scent.
“Are you still staying here tonight? I just asked. There are still two empty rooms upstairs. I couldn’t book them. I called the production team. You can stay there now.”
Before the production team came to film here, they had booked a few hotels for the actors and staff to stay in. In order to prevent the paparazzi from stealing the content of the movie, these hotels did not provide booking services to outsiders during the filming.
Song Jia nodded. “Alright, let’s book for three days first.”
Three days? Lu Zhen gasped. Song Jia had to stay here for so long? However, since her boss wanted to do something, she naturally had no right to question him. She could only nod and ask) “What do you want to eat for lunch?”
“Let’s order takeout. It’s not convenient for you to go out,” Song Jia said considerately.
Although the production team’s confidentiality measures were good, it was inevitable that there would be some resourceful paparazzi. If the paparazzi caught the two of them eating together, there would probably be a heated discussion on the Internet.
The two of them finished lunch briefly. Lu Zhen brought Song Jia upstairs. The room upstairs was about the same size as the room she was staying in, and the facilities were very complete..
