After rejecting my celebrity husband novel Chapter 578

Chapter 578: Chapter 582 The Difference Between Love and Love [2]

"Yeah, it’s that girl I’ve mentioned to you before," Jiao Yang said with an exaggerated laugh on the other side of the phone, "Xiao Qian, you don’t actually believe that my confession that day was real, leading you to deliberately avoid me these days, do you?"

Luo Xiaoqian was hit right where it hurt and hesitated in her tone, "I...no, just a bit busy."

"Are you about to release an album, right? I understand. Let’s leave it at that then. I wish your album tremendous success. Remember to leave me a signed CD for my girlfriend. She...really loves your music."

Luo Xiaoqian sounded significantly more at ease, "Just one? I’ll give you two, one for you and one for her."

"Then it’s settled. I’m going to hang up now, Xiao Qian... Good night."

"Alright, when I’ve got some time in a few days, bring her over to my place for dinner. We’ll have hotpot together."

On the other end of the phone.

Jiao Yang simply agreed with an "okay" and listened until she hung up the phone before he finally lowered his hand holding the mobile.

Ever since the day he couldn’t control himself and confessed to her, Jiao Yang had been worried whether his attitude would put Luo Xiaoqian under pressure.

Her behavior during the recent call had proven his guess to be true.

Of course, this so-called girlfriend was just something he made up on the spot. With the promotion for the new album about to start, he didn’t want her to carry the burden he had imposed on her.

"Director Xu, does this look okay?" Zhuo Yannan asked loudly from not far away.

Xu Pei suppressed her impatience, stood up and took a close look at the stage, "Yes, that’s fine, no problem."

She stood up with her bag and quickly left the venue, heading to the restroom. Checking that nobody was around, she pulled out a new phone that she hadn’t switched on yet from her bag and opened it to send an urgent message to Su Jin.

The "mysterious person" who had been in contact with Su Jin was none other than Xu Pei.

After sending the message, there was no response for a long time. She hesitated several times before dialing the number directly, only to be surprised when the call indicated "The number you have dialed is switched off."

"Su Jin!" Xu Pei was so frustrated she could only grind her teeth and curse, "No wonder you were shelved, with team members as useless as a pig like you, you deserve to be sidelined."

Hearing footsteps outside, she quickly stuffed the mobile phone back into her bag and walked out of the restroom.
