    Chapter 729


    After a few rounds of drinks, everyone started ying games in the room.


    The smell of smoke and alcohol mingled, making the room air unbearably cloudy.


    The colleague next to Ste drunkenly persuaded her to have another drink.


    But, Ste waved her hand through bleary eyes.


    "i..I''m...going to the washroom.We''ll...continue when I''m back," she said woozily.


    The colleague delightedly urged her, "Hurry...Hurry up."


    Ste grunted in response and staggered to her feet.Then, she stumbled her way to the door and


    opened it before going out.


    Leighton turned his head and nced at her.


    Then, he stood up and said, "I''m going outside to get some air."


    Ste immediately straightened her back the moment she went out the door.She stretched her arms in


    the corridor.


    Then, she did a few standing splits.Her flexibility was amazing.She did not look like the drunken person


    she was moments ago.


    ‘Sitting in that tiny, little chair was so ufortable," she thought.


    Ste moved around.She did a kick while looking around the corridor for a ce to put her legs and


    stretch them.


    Just as she turned around, she saw Leighton standing with a poker face behind her.


    Well, it was not a poker face.Still, he had no facial expressions.


    It was probably because artists have better expression management.


    However, his eyes were filled with shock, as if he had seen something that turned his world upside


    down.


    Meanwhile, Ste was still in a standing split pose.She coughed and slowly lowered her leg.


    Then, she coughed again and greeted him.


    The shock in Leighton''s eyes slowly dispersed.He nced at Ste.


    Just as he was about to speak, the door behind him opened.His manager ran out and handed him a


    face mask and sunsses.


    "For goodness sake, do you know how much trouble that face of yours brings? Hurry up and put these


    on!" Leighton frowned.


    "Why do I need to wear a mask when I''m going to the washroom?"


    Leighton''s manager said, "Did you forget about thest time you were at the washroom when you went


    for a meal? Do you think you only have female fans? Your male fans are even crazier!"


    Then, he lowered his voice and continued, "You better keep it down a little when you''re outside."


    Leighton reluctantly kept quiet and obediently put on the sunsses and face mask.


    Ste felt a little amused as she listened at the sidelines as Leighton''s manager rambled on.It was as if


    he was coaxing a child.


    Leighton seemed to notice her gaze, and he turned to look at her through his sunsses.


    Ste immediately dropped the expression and scurried into the washroom.


    Leighton frowned, and he angrily told his manager, ''''This is all your fault!"


    Leighton''s manager twitched his lips.


    "If I didn''te, do you n on pouncing onto your goddess and scaring her to death?" Leighton was


    displeased.


    "I haven''t even said a word to her yet!"


    Leighton''s manager snorted icily, "When you were inside just now, your gaze was practically glued onto


    her! If I wasn''t watching you and you had pounced on her, your fans would eat your goddess alive


    tomorrow!"Leighton sheepishly shut his mouth.Momentster, he said in a low voice, "She''s different


    from what I imagined."


    Leighton''s manager nced at the man who was a popr idol in the eyes of millions of girls.


    ‘Who the fuck would''ve thought that this bastard has a thing for voices? He''s even a Dusk Gxy


    fanboy!'' he thought. He looked at Leighton''s starstruck expression.


    "Were you disenchanted after meeting her in real life?"


    "Nope," Leighton thought of how Ste pretended to be drunk just now, only to reveal her true form the


    moment she came outside.He immediately smiled and said, "She has an incredibly contrasting


    personality; I love her even more now."


    His manager had a speechless expression.


    "Just don''t scare her away."


    Leighton nced at him displeasedly and replied, "I won''t."


    Then, he went to the washroom.


    Ste only washed her hands and went to the window by the corridor to get some air.

    ‘If I had known that these were people I don''t know, I would''ve rejected Mr.Winfield''s invite.If there are


    too many strangers around, it''s rather restricting because I can''t be myself when eating or drinking.It''s


    no fun," she thought.
