Chapter 631
Sherry waved at Channing, “Wow, Chan, you be more handsome. More and more girls take fancy
to you.”
Channing was rendered speechless.
When he prepared to say something, he spotted ine who stood beside Sherry with a slightly blushed
face.
Sherry walked over and introduced ine, “Her name is ine James and she’s around your age.”
ine stammered, “H… Hello.”
Channing slightly nodded at her to show his greeting.
Right at this moment, someone walked past them and Sherry moved aside to make way for the person,
but she staggered.
Ste supported her, “Let’s get into the private room first. More and more guests wille here.”
Channing said, “Let’s go.”
Ste and Sherry walked in front of ine and Channing. Sherry couldn’t help turning around several
times and then she said to Ste in a whisper, “Is ine fascinated by Chan?”
Ste also turned around and took a nce at them when she heard the words.
ine walked shoulder to shoulder with Channing, sping her hands and wriggling her fingers.
Apparently, she was very nervous at the moment.
But it seemed like there was something fishy.
Sherry said, “I was joking before. Ohe on, this can’t happen. But by the way, girls around ine’s
age would be easily captivated by good-looking boys and they would be easily attracted by boys
around their ages. Channing meets the two above-mentioned….”
Ste withdrew her gaze and said, “It’s the first time that they met each other. I don’t think she would
fall into him at the first nce. Maybe she has a social anxiety disorder.”
“I’ve been with her all day long today and I think she won’t have a social anxiety disorder.”
Ste was rendered speechless.
Sherry continued, “Falling in love at first sight is indeed being captivated by appearance. Because
you’re beautiful, Mr. Conrad began to…”
Ste covered her mouth, “All right, stop here.”
Sherry chuckled and pulled down Ste’s hand, “Well, I was joking. ine is a daughter of a rich family,
of course, she must have seen many gorgeous men. And Darnell must look better than Channing. We
should not worry about it since it hasn’t happened. Just wait for the progress and see what we should
do next.”
They then arrived at the private room.
The moment they seated themselves, a waiter immediately walked into the room to help them order
food.
Since people from Riverside, including ine, generally couldn’t eat food that was too spicy, and that
Sherry couldn’t eat too much spicy food either, they ordered a two-favour hot pot, one spicy and one
not.
When finishing ordering food, Channing asked, “Where’s rence?”
Ste replied, “He has to deal with some matters in thepany and he can’te here.”
Channing groaned a nasal sound and didn’t say anything else on this topic.
Originally, Channing prepared to ask Ste about the child in detail, but due to ine’s presence, he
didn’t bring up this topic.
He thought he could ask her about thister.
Ste turned to the beverage page of the menu and asked them what they would like to drink.
Thereafter, she asked Sherry, “Will Daniel join us?”
“I don’t know either. He didn’t answer my call. Come on, just enjoy our meal and leave him alone. It’s
good if he doesn’te. Then I can eat more spicy food.”
Ste chuckled. Right at this moment, her phone rang.
It was a call from Winnie, who told her that she would arrive soon and asked her which private room
they were in.
Ste said, “It may be a bit hard for you to find the private room. I will let Channing lead you in.”
After ending the call, Ste looked towards Channing, “Winnie will arrive at the restaurant soon. Go out
and take her in.”
Channing nodded his head and then stood up.
After her leaving, Sherry said to ine who was looking in the direction of the door, “ine, what are
you looking at?”
N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
ine immediately withdrew her gaze and violently shook her head, “Nothing… I’m pondering when
they will serve the dishes. I’m a bit hungry.”
Ste said, “I ordered some snacks and they will be served on the table soon.”
A bright smile immediately showed up on ine’s face as she said, “Okay!”
Judging from her reaction, it seemed like she was really hungry and was looking at the door anxiously,
waiting for the dishes.
…
Outside of the hot pot restaurant…
The driver parked the car and Winnie put on her ck peaked cap and a mask.
After getting out of the car, she looked around and found many people in the surroundings, yet she
didn’t spot Channing.
Winnie took out her phone and prepared to send a message to Channing. Right at this moment,
someone grasped her wrist.
Channing said, “There’re many people here. We cane to the back door.”
Winnie subconsciously let out a concise answer and followed behind him. After taking several steps,
she finally realized that he was still gripping her wrist.
Winnie moved her lips trying to say something. When she prepared to withdrew her hand, several boys
and girls came towards them.
Holding Winnie’s hand, Channing pulled her aside to evade the group of people.
Being distracted, Winnie forgot this matter and sneaked into the hot pot restaurant through the back
door.
Maybe it was because there were few people in the corridor, it was excessively quiet. Channing finally
came to his sense. He slightly moved his slender fingers and then slowly withdrew his hand.
Winnie immediately asked, “When did your sistere back from Riverside?”
Her question tactfully alleviated the awkwardness.
Channing replied, “She came back yesterday.”
“Is Mr. Conrad going to have dinner with us?”
“Nope,” Channing paused and then asked, “You don’t want to have the meal with him?”
Winnie chuckled awkwardly, “Not exactly. For the gatherings for me and my friends after work, it will be
better if my boss is not present.”
Channing replied, “Rest assured. He won’te.”
Winnie patted her chest, “That’s so great. I will attend the recording of a variety show several days
later. And I’m afraid that he may raise many questions.”
Channing asked after being silent for several silent, “When will you leave?”
Winnie was bewildered, “What?”
“Didn’t you say that you have to attend the recording of a variety show several dayster? When will
you go there?”
“Oh, they haven’t decided the exact time. I have to deal with other work in these two days and it hasn’t
been decided.”
Channing slightly pressed his lips together and didn’t say anything else.
Winnie continued, “What about you? Are you on your summer holiday?”
“Almost. I will have thest examination tomorrow.”
Winnie was stunned and asked, “Don’t you need to review the subject?”
Channing replied, “No need.”
Winnie couldn’t helpplimenting him in her heart: is this the strength of a Straight-A student?
After taking several steps, she asked another question, “Then… Will yourpany arrange work for
you when your summer holiday begins?”
She also heard that Channing refused to attend any talent show before and that his requirement to the
company was to arrange his work on holidays since he still wanted to ce priority on his study.
This was good. He was still young and he could take the working experience in the entertainment
community as a kind of advanced social practice.
For people who had a high IQ like him, it would be a waste of talent if he chose to be a star. It
would be a pity.
Channing replied after a while of silence, “Yes, they arranged it.”
Winnie said, “Well, feel free to turn to me if you have any problems with your work. After all, I’ve been
in the entertainment industry for many years and I’m not only a friend like your sister, but also a senior.
I’m confident to say that I know about this industry better than you.”
Channing pressed his thin lips together and groaned an answer lightly. He didn’t say anything else.
They soon arrived at the private room.
Channing said, “You go in first.”
Winnie turned around and asked in confusion, “What about you?”
