Top-tier celebrity's nightly pampering, the abstinent doctor loses control and spoils her.

The stage lights softened, focusing on the two people standing side by side.

The ethereal and melodious tune of "Moonlight and Dust" flows gently.

Lu Er spoke first, her voice still clear.

However, the presence of those around him added a subtle tremor and a deeper emotional investment.

When she sang "I walk towards the light, stepping over a thousand waves," Lu Er unconsciously turned her head and looked at Song Jingmo beside her.

To his surprise, Song Jingmo lowered his eyelashes slightly, parted his thin lips, and perfectly continued the next sentence.

Song Jingmo's voice has a deep and magnetic quality, which perfectly conveys the longing and alienation in the lyrics, and even adds a sense of story.

Lu Er's heart skipped a beat.

He had never heard Song Jingmo sing before, and he never expected that the other party could interpret this song so accurately.

Every note transition, every breathy sound, seemed to have been practiced countless times.

The two sang alternately, and their occasional harmonies were surprisingly in sync, as if they had rehearsed countless times.

Their eyes met briefly in the air before quickly separating.

The atmosphere of unspoken words didn't feel like a performance.

It's more like performing a meticulously choreographed music video, telling a secret story about looking up and pursuing.

The audience below the stage held their breath, deeply captivated by the unexpected harmony and tension of the stage.

Qu Suiwan took many photos of the well-matched couple on stage from different angles with her phone.

Seeing this, Gu Jinzhou moved closer to Yan Huaijin and said in a inflammatory tone, "Teacher Yan, that Dr. Song is Director Qu's own son."

"If you really like it, you'd better act quickly, or someone else will get it first and you'll regret it later."

Yan Huaijin's gaze never left the stage, and when Lu Er looked at Song Jingmo, she revealed a completely different look than when she looked at Yan Huaijin.

In particular, the subtle, unspoken tension between the two caused Yan Huaijin to unconsciously furrow his brow.

They have such great chemistry.

Moreover, Qu Suiwan's natural and intimate attitude towards Lu Er was clearly different from how he treated ordinary artists.

However, during lunch, there was an indescribable awkwardness and estrangement between Lu Er and Song Jingmo, which did not seem like a close relationship at all.

This contradictory feeling filled Yan Huaijin with doubt and a subtle sense of crisis.

The performance ended, and the applause was thunderous and prolonged. Lu Er and Song Jingmo walked off the stage one after the other.

Lu Er was still immersed in the shock and complicated emotions from just now, her cheeks slightly flushed.

Yan Huaijin approached Song Jingmo with two bottles of water, first politely handing him an unopened bottle: "Dr. Song, thank you for your hard work."

Song Jingmo said "thank you" in a low voice, took the water, and with a deft twist of his slender fingers, the bottle cap popped open.

Then, he took a sip very naturally, without any intention of passing it on to anyone else.

Lu Er's gaze fell on Song Jingmo's hands holding the bottle; those hands were long and slender, with distinct knuckles.

With a little force, the veins on the back of the hand will bulge out, making it look very sexy and charming.

He clearly remembered that the fingertips of those hands were slightly cool. The areas where the scalpel was often held were covered with a thin layer of calluses.

It feels a little itchy when it touches the skin.

Seeing that Song Jingmo didn't seem to care for Lu Er in any special way, and was even somewhat indifferent, Yan Huaijin relaxed a little.

A gentle smile returned to her face as she handed Lu Er another bottle of water, the cap of which she had carefully unscrewed: "Drink some water to soothe your throat."

Lu Er's gaze unconsciously followed Song Jingmo's hand as he drank water. Seeing that he made no response, a barely perceptible sense of disappointment swept through her heart.

He could only accept the water from Yan Huaijin and say softly, "Thank you, Teacher Yan."

Yan Huaijin watched as Lu Er obediently drank the water he handed her, and then glanced at the expressionless Song Jingmo. Most of the doubts in his heart dissipated.

It seems that Song Jingmo doesn't have those feelings for Lu Er.

Yan Huaijin's mood improved, and he smiled gently at Lu Er, "There are some snacks over there, why don't you go grab something to eat?"

As she spoke, she naturally supported Lu Er's back and led him toward the dining area.

Song Jingmo held the water bottle, his gaze falling on Yan Huaijin's hand that was placed on Lu Er's back.

Watching Lu Er obediently follow Yan Huaijin away, his eyes were calm and unwavering, but he simply tilted his head back and took another big gulp of water.

Gu Jinzhou swayed over gracefully and sat down next to Song Jingmo: "Dr. Song sang really well just now, not bad at all compared to professional singers."

Seeing that Song Jingmo didn't react much, she changed the subject, "Teacher Yan and Lu Er have a really good relationship. I often see them attending events together, and they look very nice together."

She continued to embellish the story, "Actor Yan is quite indifferent to everyone, but he takes great care of Lu Er and is very considerate."

We all privately speculate that they've been together for a while, but just haven't made it public.

Upon hearing this, Song Jingmo's lips curled into a faint, cold smile.

She turned her head to look at Gu Jinzhou: "I'm not interested in these entertainment industry gossips."

Gu Jinzhou was taken aback by these words, and the smile on his face faltered.

Not far away, Lu Er, who was getting food at the dining table, couldn't help but glance in Song Jingmo's direction out of the corner of her eye.

When she saw Gu Jinzhou huddled up next to Song Jingmo, the two of them chatting and laughing, an inexplicable anger suddenly rose in her heart, and she stabbed a small cake hard with her fork.

Yan Huaijin followed the person's gaze, frowned slightly, and said in a low voice, "Gu Jinzhou has a very messy lifestyle in private, with complicated relationships with men and women, and no bottom line. You'd better stay away from him."

Upon hearing this, Lu Er's heart tightened even more.

Although Song Jingmo has an extremely high IQ, he is as innocent as a blank sheet of paper in the entertainment industry.

I have no idea about those intricate schemes and dirty tricks; what if Gu Jinzhou has some malicious intentions...?

Lu Er instantly lost her appetite, absentmindedly poking at the food on her plate, her entire attention focused on Song Jingmo.

They were terrified that if they looked too closely, their precious cabbage would be eaten by a pig.

Seeing that Lu Er hadn't eaten much, Yan Huaijin carefully placed a small piece of delicate dessert near her mouth and said softly, "This is good, want to try some?"

Lu Er was staring intently at Song Jingmo when she subconsciously opened her mouth to accept the feeding.

Combining Gu Jinzhou's ambiguous words from earlier, a feeling of annoyance mixed with an inexplicable sourness welled up in Song Jingmo's heart.

So he stopped looking in that direction and silently picked up the wine glass from the waiter's tray.

One glass after another, he used alcohol to numb his out-of-control emotions.

When he looked up again and saw Yan Huaijin gently speaking to Lu Er, Song Jingmo finally lost his temper.

With a soft "bang," he placed the empty wine glass on the table and abruptly stood up.

With a cold expression, he turned and walked out of the banquet hall without saying a word.

Seeing this, Gu Jinzhou's eyes flashed with a calculating glint. He immediately stood up and quickly chased after her, calling out, "Dr. Song, wait for me!"

When Lu Er saw Song Jingmo suddenly leave his seat and Gu Jinzhou follow him out, she panicked and dropped her fork onto her plate with a clatter.

Without thinking, he was about to get up and chase after her, but Yan Huaijin gently pressed his arm down.

Yan Huaijin looked at the person with a complicated expression, "They seem to get along quite well, it's not really appropriate for you to go."

Lu Er froze.

Yes, but in what capacity did he pursue her?

Ordinary friends?

Is he still the one who keeps saying they're just brothers?

She could only watch helplessly as Song Jingmo and Gu Jinzhou disappeared one after the other at the entrance of the banquet hall, her heart filled with mixed emotions.
