Third floor.

When Felix came in, lucy waved to him happily: "Felix, here."

He stepped over and sat down, still with the standard noble grace.

lucy was so fascinated that she rested her chin on her hands and stared at him blankly: "Felix, you look so handsome. Did you dress up just to see me?"

Felix gave her a cold glance: "Do you think it's possible?"

That cold tone gave lucy a shiver. She was joking. With all her years of understanding of him, he naturally wouldn't be delighted to see her dressed up, probably for some important event.

lucy's little pink face was crossed over: "Hate, Felix, you can't just coax me."

Felix was a little annoyed, slowly picked up food and ate, and simply ignored her coquetry.

The girl looked aggrieved and picked up her chopsticks to give him a meatball: "Felix, this is the signature dish. Do you want to try it?"

"Well, you have some too."

lucy thought he was concerned about her, and her face brightened immediately: "Felix, are you and Xenia doing well now?"

Felix's chopsticks for picking up food paused for a moment, and he raised his eyes to look at her deeply: "lucy, whether I get along well with her or not doesn't change the relationship between you and me. Do you understand?"

lucy's eyes turned red all of a sudden. Over the years, he had rejected her openly and covertly, and she thought she should have been used to it long ago, but now hearing about it still made her feel bad.

"I don't understand. Xenia herself said that if she couldn't hold on, she hoped I would take care of you. All these years around you, apart from her and me, Felix, we are a perfect match in terms of family background, appearance, and anything else, aren't we?"

The girl's eyes were full of sorrow and deep affection, and Felix put down his chopsticks, feeling somewhat helpless about the girl he had watched as a younger sister. He couldn't be as indifferent as he was to other women, but he was also annoyed by her affection.

"lucy, there are some things I don't want to repeat. Today I solemnly tell you that our relationship won't change because of anyone 's words. If you are willing to continue being my sister, then I welcome it. If you keep being stubborn... I think there's no need for us to see each other again!"

His face was soft and his voice was even gentle, but what he said was so resolute that lucy couldn't hold back her tears: "Why, why can't you like me? What's wrong with me?"

Felix didn't like women to cry, and when he cried, his nerves throbbed. He reached out and pulled out a piece of paper and handed it to her: "Well, you're not bad, but I can't like you. Wipe your tears and go back after the meal!"

lucy doesn't take it and throws a young lady tantrum: "I don't want to go back, I want you to keep eating with me, I want to drink!"

After saying that, she opened a bottle of wine and drink it down.

It was too late for Felix to stop her, so he let her drink it, tugged at his tie, and felt annoyed to remember that Adeline was still waiting for him at home.

The second floor box was also teaming up. Adeline toasted Joseph and said, "Teacher, first of all, thank you for being able to meet me in your busy schedule. I toast you!"

With that, she raised her head and finished a glass of white wine, feeling very pleased.

Joseph TSK twice: "Alright, Mr. Capet, the boss's posture is different, the alcohol tolerance has increased."

Adeline's face turned a little red, waved her hand and smiled: "Teacher, stop making fun of me. Whether I can really be a boss or not depends on you. This time 'Long Song' you must help me. You be the director and I'll be the assistant director. Just tell me whatever you want!"

Joseph took a drink. As a regular at the dinner party, he naturally had a good tolerance for alcohol and remained calm: "Adeline, I read this script. To be honest, it's good, but I'm afraid..."

Adeline's grip on the glass tightened, her gaze moist: "Just say whatever the teacher asks, and I'll try my best to meet it."

A kind smile spread across his chubby face. "As for me, your mother and I are good friends, and you are my apprentice. Logically, when you are in trouble, I should do my best to help you. But Adeline, the entertainment industry is a very ruthless capitalist society, and all kinds of relations productions are like a web. I can't do as I please. Considering the current situation of Canhua, it's not worth me personally shooting this drama."

Adeline knew he was telling the truth. Directors in his position are more cautious and careful with their reputation. If the filming conditions are poor, they will naturally look down upon him. Even if they do shoot it reluctantly, he will take the biggest blame if it doesn't become popular.

She bit her lip: "I know the teacher's concerns and I understand you. I will try to bring in the funds. If there are enough funds, I wonder if the teacher will still be willing?"

"Of course, as long as you have enough money, I can shoot it as I wish, and by the way, there's also the lead actor. If you choose the right lead actor for this script, it's almost halfway to success!"

Adeline nodded: "Well, I trust the teacher. If you have a suitable actor, I'll do everything I can to bring in."

After that, the two talked about the matter. It was almost ten o 'clock and Adeline was a little drunk. Joseph couldn't help worrying: "Adeline, how about I send you back?"

She waved her hand and said, "No need, teacher. I'll just find a chauffeur later, and I'm not very drunk."

Joseph, seeing that her eyes and brows were still clear, stopped insisting and drove away, while Adeline's mind, which had been tense all along, broke and turned to run to the third floor.

Manager Wang, seeing her again, couldn't help but have a headache: "Miss Adeline, what are you doing?"

Adeline patted her red cheek: "307, I want to go in and see?"

"The guests are eating, Miss Adeline, don't disturb them. I think you're drunk, so hurry home."

Adeline frowned and pushed him away to 307. She was walking so fast that she couldn't be stopped.

The door was pushed open and she was stunned by the two people eating inside. They were two middle-aged women dressed in fine clothes.

"Oh, what's the matter with you? You came in without knocking. Who are you?" A fat woman pointed at her and asked.

Adeline shook her head, feeling a headache.

Manager Wang came over to apologize and pulled her away as well.

Miss Adeline, you're really drunk. Do you have any family or friends? I'll ask them to come and pick you up!

'No need!' "I have no family and no friends," Adeline sighed, exhausted.

Her voice was too desolate, and her beautiful face seemed to be shrouded in a layer of white mist, ethereal and sorrowful.

By the time Manager Wang came to his senses, the person had already gone far away.

Adeline sat in the car and the chauffeur asked where her home was. She covered her eyes with her hand and couldn't say a word for a moment.

Even if she married Felix and moved into such a luxurious house as the Garden of Splendor, it still couldn't be called home.

The chauffeur could only ask, "Miss, where are you going?"

Adeline choked up: "Splendid Garden."

The saddest thing was that she had no other place to go, and she had to forget tonight from her mind and act as if nothing had happened so that she could go on with Felix.

In a consensual marriage.
