Hello Mr. King

Chapter 395: Want To Be Upright

Yun Xiangxiang felt embarrassed to dismantle Song Mian, but could not embarrass Hou Chengjue as well. She could only keep her smile, “Hello, Professor Song.”

“Come, let’s go inside.” Fu min hurriedly led them into the house.

Song Mian also brought some gifts. It was Chinese medicinal materials wrapped in oil paper. “I heard that Teacher Fu has been suffering from insomnia lately. I have prepared a few medicinal pairings. I will give Teacher Fu a pulse diagnosis later.”

“My birthday this year is very precious. I get a free consultation from you.” Fu Min smiled till the wrinkles around her eyes appeared. It was apparent how happy and surprised she was.

“Little Song is a doctor.” Hou Chengjue introduced it in another sentence.

“I know. Teacher Hou mentioned it in the previous Film Festival.” Yun Xiangxiang nodded kindly.

“Xiangxiang’s memory is on par with yours. She remembers everything.”mHou Chengjue said to Song Mian.

The attitude of being introduced to each other this way was too obvious. If Yun Xiangxiang were an eighteen-year-old girl, she would probably be overwhelmed.

But the key was that she was an experienced actor. She had been through so many scripts and was familiar with this kind of setting.

However, she and Song Mian were too familiar with each other. When Hou Chengjue saw that she was not bashful or shy, he felt a little anxious.

This was such an excellent guy, was she not moved at all?

Or was it because many beautiful people in the entertainment industry were not moved by appearance?

Thinking of this, Hou Chengjue appreciated Yun Xiangxiang even more and became more determined to become their matchmaker.

“Sit down first. I still have two more dishes.” Fu Min poured tea for Song Mian again and even served up some fruits and nuts.

“Madam, I’ll help you.” Yun Xiangxiang stood up.

“Don’t. I like to be alone. I don’t even allow Old Hou into the kitchen. You, youngsters, should stay here and chat with each other.” Fu Min stopped her quickly.

“Your Madam is right, don’t bother her.” Hou Chengjue naturally agreed.

Yun Xiangxiang had to sit back down. This was too awkward. It was obvious that she and Song Mian were familiar with each other, yet she had to act like they were unfamiliar. It was really...

“Xiangxiang, you are interested in mathematics. Little Song is a genius in mathematics.” Hou Chengjue struck while the iron was hot, “You two can exchange contact numbers so you can ask him anything you don’t understand in the future.”

She felt that even Uncle Song did not promote Song Mian so diligently. She had to suspect that Hou Chengjue was Song Mian’s actual father!

“Miss Yun...”

“What Miss Yun, it sounds awkward. Call her Xiangxiang.” Hou Chengjue couldn’t help but help Song Mian.

Song Mian smiled warmly, “Xiangxiang, you won’t mind, right?”

Keep pretending! Keep your act!

She smirked fakely, “People who know me call me Xiangxiang. It’s alright.”

Hou Chengjue listened and felt that she seemed to be deliberately drawing a line with Song Mian. He began to question himself. Does she not like Song Mian?

He was doing it out of goodwill. Hou Chengjue was good friends with Song Chi and knew the status of the Song family. Song Mian begged him for the matchmaking. Moreover, he had Song Chi’s consent.

Yun Xiangxiang was a good girl. After all, the entertainment industry was a chaotic place. He was worried that she would suffer losses if she had no one to support her, so he became a matchmaker.

With Song Mian’s character, talent, and excellence, if it were not because of his daughter being too... frivolous, Song Mian would not even consider her. Otherwise, he would want to have such a good son-in-law too.

“Xiangxiang, what hobbies do you have?” Of course, Song Mian couldn’t let Hou Chengjue feel awkward and took the initiative to ask her.

The corners of Yun Xiangxiang’s lips twitched almost invisibly, “Reading.”

“What about outdoor activities?” Song Mian listened carefully and asked gently.

“Horseback riding.” Yun Xiangxiang looked at him coldly.

Hou Chengjue regarded this gaze as full of defense and alienation. He felt relieved that his student was not easily confused but also felt very sorry for a while. Not to mention he felt a little bit of triumph towards the lack of charm in Song Mian.

His feelings were complicated and hard to describe.

It was effortless for Song Mian to give people a good impression. He managed to continue the conversation even when Yun Xiangxiang had a cold shoulder towards him. This made her answer more and more, even when she did not intend to.

Hou Chengjue occasionally interjected the conversation, either to praise Yun Xiangxiang to Song Mian or to praise Song Mian to Yun Xiangxiang.

Seeing both of them getting more and more engaged, Hou Chengjue finally smiled with satisfaction.

“Old Hou, there is no more salt at home. You need to go buy some.” Fu Min’s voice suddenly came from the kitchen

“Ah, okay. I’ll go now.” Hou Chengjue immediately stood up, “You two carry on.”

Hou Chengjue walked very fast. He was already at the door, putting his shoes on and walking out before Yun Xiangxiang could say anything.

Now there was only her and Song Mian left in the living room. Hearing the sound of cooking, she asked in a low voice, “What in the world are you doing?”

Was it fun to toy around with her teacher like this? He even turned her into a little liar!

“I’m allowing our relationship to have an upright start.” Song Mian used his appearance at the Film Festival to start paving a way.

He was willing to be the man standing behind her, but not the man who could not be seen with other people around.

As for his identity and wealth, even if it was impossible to find out everything about him, there was a lot to be discovered. It was undoubted that he was a rich man in the eyes of the public.

Even if he were young and promising, the connection between a rich man and a female actor would always make people unable to think that it was a normal relationship.

He could not allow people to pour dirt on Yun Xiangxiang. Her popularity would grow as she grew older. Older fans and media workers alike would be curious about her love life.

When she reaches a certain age, Yun Xiangxiang would not conceal anything with her personality. So in her future interviews, she would mention her love life.

It was impossible to unveil their first encounter to the public unless they did not conceal any part of it. Otherwise, the story would be illogical.

He also did not want the outside world to think that she used all her might to approach him. So he could only go through the most convincing process.

What could be more upright than him falling in love with her at first sight at the Film Festival, then begging her teacher to introduce them?

“It is not good for you to lie to Teacher Hou like this.” Yun Xiangxiang could not get past her conscience.

“Teacher Hou is a person who doesn’t lie.” It was destined that the truth could not be told to him. Otherwise, he would not help them lie, “Even though it is a lie, it doesn’t cause losses to anyone. Wait till we finally announce it to the public, then I will confess to him.”

After hearing this, she felt better. Since things have reached this point and Song Mian was doing this out of goodwill, what else could she do?”

“In order for him to be my matchmaker, I suffered a lot.” Song Mian’s tone was a little aggrieved.

“What did you lose?” Yun Xiangxiang glanced at him, ignoring and doubting his pretense of being wronged.

It was already good enough that Song Mian didn’t scheme against others. Was he someone who would suffer losses from others?
