Jinxi returned to the house and realized her face was very warm.

She went back to the bathroom, washed her hands, dried them, and pressed them to her face. Looking up at herself in the mirror, her face was as red as a ripe peach.

Zhou Linxu probably didn't notice, right?

"He definitely didn't see anything!" Jin Xi said to herself in the mirror. "He definitely didn't see anything!"

However, as she talked, she lost her nerve. She couldn't keep holding onto this confused mind forever.

This drags her along, and it also drags Zhou Linxu along.

Actually, it would be quite nice if Zhou Linxu were really from her family.

He is good-looking, self-disciplined, reliable, and very reassuring.

Jinxi looked at herself, blinked, and suddenly felt a little uncertain.

Ugh! It's such a bothersome thought.

No wonder those people are so sentimental when they're in love; she hasn't even started dating yet, and her worries have already overwhelmed her.

Jinxi took a deep breath. Should she find some time to test Zhou Linxu?

This kind of hesitation and dawdling isn't like her at all!

Uncle Li sent Jinxi to Fengyun.

Following the information about the private room provided by Chen Zhang, a waiter led her upstairs. When she opened the door to the private room, Chen Zhang was already there, accompanied by three other girls.

The four people huddled together at the tea break area, where health-preserving teas were placed on the coffee table.

Chen Zhang greeted, "Teacher Jin is here. Please come and sit down."

Jinxi, carrying her bag, walked to the tea break area: "Excuse me, am I late?"

"It's not too late, there are still two stuck in traffic." Chen Zhang said, "Let me introduce you, this is Jin Xi, the martial arts instructor I invited. She will be joining the group for training on the 25th and next month."

Jinxi greeted the other three with a smile and exchanged names.

Chen Zhang said, "I'll create a small group chat. If anything comes up, we can discuss it directly in the group, saving me from having to repeat myself multiple times."

Jinxi looked down at the newly created group on the screen and silently changed her nickname.

Xiao Miao, the interior designer standing nearby, asked, "Teacher Jin, is your profile picture your baby?"

Jinxi nodded and said, "Yes, my son."

"So cute!" Xiao Miao exclaimed, "Teacher Jin, you really don't look like someone who has given birth. You've maintained your appearance so well."

Jin Xi smiled without saying a word.

While others might not know, Chen Zhang did. When Jin Xi was mentioned, she noticed that the child looked familiar. Upon closer inspection, she realized that he was none other than Zan Zan, the son of her brother's good friend, Zhou Erge!

Chen Zhang went back to confirm and found out that the martial arts instructor he had been interested in was actually Zhou Erge's current wife.

If he really had to call her, he would have to call her Second Sister-in-law, but Jinxi never mentioned Second Brother Er in their conversation, and Chen Zhang pretended to be clueless.

They're there to work, not to compete based on their family background.

Chen Zhang tactfully changed the subject: "Teacher Jin, have you read the script?"

Jinxi nodded: "I read them all in one go."

She pointed to her eyes and said, "They're so beautiful that I stayed up all night."

After listening, Chen Zhang patted the even more shy girl beside him: "Xuxu, I already told you, this script is perfect. If we film it, it will definitely be a hit!"

Screenwriter Xuxu glanced at Jinxi, then lowered her head shyly: "No, it's not that good... there are still many areas for improvement."

"It's already fantastic," Jin Xi said. "As a bookworm of eighteen years, I can't even imagine how good it will look when it's finally released..."

This was an all-female meal, and everyone enjoyed it very much.

After dinner, Chen Zhang waved his hand and led them to a newly opened bar.

This bar has two floors; the downstairs is a mixed-use area, and the upstairs is a private room.

The private room was fully equipped with billiards, mahjong machines, and even a microphone for singing.

Jinxi doesn't go to bars very often. The last time she went was when she graduated, when she had a good time with her roommates and a few other friends.

Chen Zhang said, "Tonight's expenses are on Director Chen. Order whatever you like!"

After having a meal and getting to know each other better, Xuxu asked, "Can we really order anything? What about male models?"

"Order!" Chen Zhang swirled his wine glass. "Then you've ordered something good. All the male models in this shop are personally supervised by my friend. Not one of them is ugly. They have all kinds of styles. Order what you like. I'm just afraid that if you order something, you'll be too embarrassed to look at it."

Xuxu had drunk a little and was a bit tipsy. Chen Zhang's words made her retort, "Don't talk nonsense! Why would I be embarrassed to look? I'm perfectly comfortable with it!"

She declared boldly, "Order!"

Then he turned to Jinxi, who was closest to him, and asked, "Jin-jie! What kind do you like? I'll order a few for you! Are eighteen enough?"

Jinxi was both amused and exasperated; this kid got a bit too excited once he got to know her.

She reached out and helped Xuxu up: "Sit down and let's talk. Sit down and let's talk."

Xuxu then asked, "What kind do you like? I'm rich, I can pay for it!"

Chen Zhang said, "Great author, I know you're rich, but this time I'll pay and make the decision. Let's start with 14! Two for each of us!"

Xuxu: "Okay! Best sister!"

Jinxi: ...

Jinxi went to check on the remaining people, wondering who could manage these two drunk people, but they all seemed helpless.

Xiao Miao said, "Sister Jin, don't mind them. These two start acting after a few drinks. They'll regret it when they wake up tomorrow. As for hiring male models, just have them come here to sing and dance. It's just for fun. It's not a big deal."

Apart from Jinxi, the rest of the team members were already acquainted and quite familiar with each other.

Jinxi often boasts online about wanting to date eighteen different male models, but when the models actually appear in front of her, she awkwardly picks her toes.

They all looked great, and their outfits were very stylish. Everyone was wearing sparkly chains that shimmered under the lights of the private room.

But no matter how you look at them, none of them are as good-looking as Zhou Linxu.

Jinxi politely declined the male models who wanted to get close to her, and instead sat quietly in the corner with a glass of wine.

I must say, the dance was really beautiful.

Suddenly, the door to the private room was pushed open, and a waiter rushed in. He said something to Chen Zhang, who was shocked and exclaimed, "Quick, quick, all of you get out! Pretend you were never here!"

The male models were a little confused; they had only been there for fifteen minutes. But whatever the boss said went, and within two minutes, the private room was empty.

Jinxi asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

Chen Zhang said, "My brother is here."

Jinxi responded with an "oh," knowing that Chen Zhang's brother was Chen Yue.

Chen Zhang whispered furtively in her ear, "Your husband is here too, so don't let it slip later."

Jinxi: ? ? ?

Zhou Linxu is here too??

She dared not let it slip. Although she hadn't chosen the male model, she had still seen him. If Zhou Linxu found out, she wouldn't be able to explain it to him.

After all, they are still husband and wife in name only!

Moreover, Chen Zhang is the younger sister of Zhou Linxu's good friend. If this gets out, someone with ulterior motives could spread rumors that the couple is having marital problems!

Heavenly Bodhisattva, it seems this problem has truly landed on her shoulders!
