Chapter 171 - Late Night Date (1/2)

Xiao Nian was furious.

In a flash, his Daddy Pei had disappeared from the banquet event. He had questioned the hotel staff, and they said someone had paid the bill.

But so what if that was the case!?

“Pei Zhen! Where on earth are you! You’re lazy and slack, and you just can’t be bothered!”

Xiao Nian called the missing Pei Zhen on the phone, sounding furious. Only, he hadn’t expected that the call made Fu Sichen even more furious.

The moment the line got through, and before Pei Zhen could even say a word, Fu Sichen had interrupted with a very icy, “Go away”. It gave Xiao Nian, who was on the other end of the line, a fright. Pei Zhen too was scared stiff.

Afraid that Xiao Nian would hang up, Pei Zhen immediately said, “Okay, Mr. Xiao, please don’t be angry. I’ll come back right away.”

Xiao Nian couldn’t believe what he was hearing.

It had been ages since Pei Zhen first called Xiao Nian ‘Mr. Xiao’. The first time Pei Zhen addressed him that way was when he first joined the entertainment circle.

Xiao Nian felt uneasy.

He wanted to ask Daddy Pei what was wrong, but Daddy Pei had already hung up, leaving a broken line which continued to be busy when he tried calling again.

When Xiao Nian saw Pei Zhen again, Fu Sichen accompanied him, following right behind.

The expression on Best Actor Fu’s face was stormy, to put it mildly, and his cold aura was so unwelcoming that it diminished the enthusiasm of the young celebrities. No one dared to approach him.

“Pei Pei.” Xiao Nian greeted Pei Zhen, and at the same time glanced at Fu Sichen. “Best Actor Fu…”

Fu Sichen shot poisonous daggers with his eyes at Xiao Nian just as the latter started to speak. Compared to his usual frostiness, Fu Sichen looked as though he was on a mission to kill.

What was wrong with him?

Xiao Nian looked utterly baffled and glanced at Pei Zhen as If pleading for help. However, his Daddy Pei had turned red in his ears and awkwardly avoided Xiao Nian’s eyes.
