Chapter 9 Let's Do A Check-up

• The commotion came to a stop as the host of the birthday banquet made an entrance, none other than the renowned film director, Chen Ming.
• Chen Ming looked at the nearly naked woman in disbelief and asked sternly, "It's my birthday today, what is all this? Who gave you permission to do this?"
• Lu Tingchen firmly held Xia Yanxi's soft and delicate hands in his palm, speaking calmly, "I allowed it."
• Chen Ming widened his eyes in disbelief. What? It was Lu Tingchen who gave the order? Wasn't he always indifferent to anything related to women?
• And who exactly had offended this Buddha-like figure!
• Qin Tian, thinking that he had a good relationship with Chen Ming, began to complain as soon as he saw him, "Director Chen, you finally came. Look at these people, they're no different from criminals and thieves. They even tore my fiancée's dress. Is there no justice? As the host of this event, you must provide an explanation!"
• Chen Ming and Qin Tian had only dined together a few times and discussed film investments. They couldn't even be considered friends, let alone the fact that Qin Tian had offended Lu Tingchen, who was a real headache.
• Impatiently waving his hand, Chen Ming said, "Explanation? Spare me. Take your woman and leave. We don't welcome you!"
• Qin Tian couldn't believe what Chen Ming said. "What? You want me to leave? Chen Ming, is this how you treat your guests? Do you still expect me to invest in your movie?"
• What kind of guests? How could they be more important than the God of Wealth!
• Chen Ming was genuinely afraid that Qin Tian would say more nonsense and implicate him, so he said impatiently, "Whether you leave or not, if you don't, I'll have the security guards throw you out!"
• First, Qin Tian's fiancée had her dress torn off, and now Chen Ming was shouting at him to leave.
• No matter how shameless Qin Tian was, he knew he couldn't stay here any longer. "Fine, you're heartless. You and the person behind you can wait for me. I won't let this go so easily!"
• After saying that, he took off his coat and draped it over the unconscious Xia Xinyue, then bent down to lift her up and carried her out.
• Lu Tingchen's eyes were deep as he exchanged a glance with the person behind him, and the people below immediately understood.
• Anyone who dared to offend their boss and still expected to leave unscathed probably hadn't been born in this world yet!
• The trouble was resolved, and Lu Tingchen directly pulled Xia Yanxi away, completely ignoring the flattering expression on Chen Ming's face.
• Xia Yanxi followed the man, feeling confused, and suddenly asked with some concern, "Is it alright for us to leave like this? After all, it's Director Chen's birthday, he must be very angry. Maybe I should go back and apologize to him before we leave."
• If it were anyone else, they wouldn't be pleased about their birthday celebration being disrupted like this.
• And if her agent found out, he would definitely scold her severely, and she might not even get any acting roles in the future...
• Lu Tingchen naturally didn't care about Chen Ming's feelings. "You don't need to worry about him. I will have my assistant compensate him. Get in the car."
• Xia Yanxi, as if enchanted by his voice, had no sense of danger at all and got into the car with the still unfamiliar man.
• By the time she realized it, the car had been driving for a while.
• The man didn't speak, and Xia Yanxi didn't know what to say either. It was awkward to just sit there without saying anything. At the very least, she should ask where he was taking her, right?
• Xia Yanxi cleared her throat and asked softly, "Um, Mr. Lu, where are we going?"
• "To the hospital."
• "Hospital?"
• Why would they go to the hospital? Was he sick?
• Xia Yanxi looked at the man beside her with worry. His complexion wasn't very good. "Are you feeling unwell?"
• Lu Tingchen lowered his gaze and looked at her worried and beautiful face. His voice was calm as he said, "I'm fine. I'm taking you for a check-up."
• "What?" Xia Yanxi was instantly dumbfounded.
