"You don't need to bother." Shen Jintai said: "I have a driver."

Yan Qiuchi: "I'm not going only to pick you up. I have other things to do."

Shen Jintai: "What things?"

"Let's talk about it when we meet." Yan Qiuchi said: "Give me a call when you are almost finished."

When Shen Jintai hung up, Xiao Tang said: "President Yan is so sticky."

Shen Jintai said: "You are not very familiar with him. Later, you'll know that he is completely different in public and in private."

Xiao Tang laughed when he heard this: "President Yan has surprised me recently." The change was too great.

When Shen Jintai, Qiu Hong, and Cai Jun arrived at the restaurant, Ji Fengxing was already waiting inside. He was quite enthusiastic when he saw him, and immediately stood up when he saw him entering, then called out to him: "Jintai is here."

"President Ji." Shen Jintai smiled as he greeted him.

He sat down to the right of Ji Fengxing who asked him: "Can you drink?"

"A little bit." Shen Jintai said.

Though there were no outsiders here, at the end of the day, Ji Fengxing was still his boss, so he needed to give him a bit of face and accompany him for a bit. Ji Fengxing poured him a glass of wine. Shen Jintai held the glass with both hands and said "Thank you" politely.

As they were all in the industry, the conversation mainly revolves around films. After three rounds of drinking, the topic finally moved to their personal lives as they talked about Cai Jun's wife.

"I heard that your wife is pregnant. Congratulations." Ji Fengxing said.

After drinking, Cai Jun became more talkative. When he heard what Ji Fengxing said, he became a bit emotional. He had fell in love and chased his wife for more than ten years and didn't get married until he was almost 40. After getting married, there was no movement after a few years, and he thought that he would have no children in this life. Who knew that suddenly his wife got pregnant."

"My wife is much older than when women usually have their pregnancy and she's by herself abroad. I have to video call her every day, so I have an appointment with her after returning to the hotel. A pregnant woman has a lot of emotional ups and downs. It's been difficult for her, and I love her very much," Cai Jun said and turned to Qiu Hong: "So Director Qiu, we have to shoot quickly so I can hurry back to accompany my wife."

Qiu Hong smiled and said: "I know. I'll will try my best."

"Meticulous work produce fine products." Ji Fengxing said.

"Am I the only one here with children?" Cai Jun asked, pinching the wine glass. It was a rhetorical question.

"Perhaps this is the life for others. President Ji still likes to play around?" Cai Jun said with a smile: "It's almost time to settle down. Isn't your old man not in a hurry?"

Ji Fengxing smiled, his face flushed with wine. He glanced at Qiu Hong and Shen Jintai and said: "I've been thinking about it recently. Maybe I'm getting too old now and don't want to play anymore. Sometimes when I think about the absurd things of my past, I find it boring now, but it's not so easy to settle down. I have to find someone I really like."

"I agree with that." Cai Jun said and looked at Shen Jintai: "It also depends on fate. Some people get married late, and some meet the right person at a young age, such as Xiao Jin."

Shen Jintai was touched. He smiled when he heard this, without any tweaks or embarrassments, but because he drank, his face was slightly red, making him look seemingly shy. However, the faint red glow made his complexion all the more attractive. Ji Fengxing couldn't help but keep staring at him, and the more he looked, the more he liked what he saw.
