Ruan Zeyan quietly sat on the spacious couch . The diamonds embedded on the back of the couch reflected the lights and shined on his face, making him look even more serious and cold .
Ruan Zeyan apparently saw Ling Tianya who was standing at the doorway . He only glanced at her for a second before turning his gaze back to the big screen, as if she and all the other female celebrities in the room were insignificant .
It was strange that Ruan Zeyan's face looked icier and icier . He stared at the screen as if he was looking at his competition .
There was no doubt that Ruan Zeyan was the man of all men . Attractive, brilliant, wealthy, and powerful . He was nicknamed “the walking pheromone”, he was every girl's dream and this label was not unfounded . Just like any dream, he was someone you could only think about, but never touch, because he was always cold and distant . As a result, all the girls would rather throw themselves at Gu Zhiqian, the playboy best actor, instead of getting near Ruan Zeyan .
There was a lot of empty space surrounding Ruan Zeyan . Even Guan Meiyi moved away a bit after sensing the weird mood he seemed to be in .
Noticing that Ling Tianya was looking at Ruan Zeyan, Gu Zhiqian smiled and took her wrist, walking her towards the couch .
Ling Tianya looked down at her wrist . The last person who touched her wrist, Kang Shao, ended up losing both hands thanks to Ruan Zeyan . She didn't know why and didn't want to find out either . Secretly Ling Tianya was curious what would happen to Gu Zhiqian's hands . It occurred to Ling Tianya that her thoughts were a bit evil .
“Our beautiful screenwriter, you were staring at Zeyan ever since you walked through the door . Have you not met him before?” Gu Zhiqian smirked . “No way . He is the investor of this show, you must have met him . ”
Hearing Gu Zhiqian addressing Ruan Zeyan by his first name, Ling Tianya knew that they must have a special relationship . Looked like no hands were being chopped that day .
Ruan Zeyan and Guan Meiyi also heard what Guan Zhiqian was saying and turned to look at Ling Tianya . It was hard to decipher Ruan Zeyan's mood exactly .
Guan Meiyi, on the other hand, felt a slight burn and a growing anxiety . “Did Ling Tianya have her eyes on Ruan Zeyan?” The thought planted a seed of apprehension in Guan Meiyi's mind, making her move closer to Ruan Zeyan subconsciously as if she was declaring him her territory .
What made Guan Meiyi the most anxious was the fact that Ruan Zeyan did not look at her even once that evening . The courtship seemed completely one-sided that far .
Ling Tianya glanced at Guan Meiyi and detected the angst in her eyes, even though to everyone else Guan Meiyi's facial expression didn't give away anything .
Ling Tianya smiled politely, “Mr . Ruan and I met before, I just didn't expect to see him here tonight . I always thought chairmen of big corporations were busy all the time, maybe it's not the case after all . ”
The subtext of her words was obvious . “Ruan Zeyan, do you have so much free time? Why do I see you everywhere?”
“When and where I decide to make an appearance is no concern of yours . ” Ruan Zeyan looked straight over at Ling Tianya . The lack of expression on his face didn't make it less intimidating .
Very quickly, the mood of the whole room was dampened .
Seeing Ruan Zeyan's attitude towards Ling Tianya, Guan Meiyi felt relieved . She was definitely overthinking it . Ruan Zeyan apparently loathed Ling Tianya and had treated her with hostility from the very beginning . As long as Ling Tianya had some self-respect, she would not throw herself at Ruan Zeyan .
Gu Zhiqian was the only person in the room whose spirit was not affected by Ruan Zeyan . He sat Ling Tianya and himself down right next to Ruan Zeyan and raised a glass of whiskey on ice, “Like I said, penalty drink for being late . ”
