Chapter 1057: Do You Know Song Jinyan?

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Su Wen was not familiar with Lu Jianan at all. She only knew that she was a close friend of Song Zishan, but they had never spoken before. Su Wen wasn’t even that familiar with Song Zishan. Their conflicts had mostly been indirect, except for the signing event in the province where they had a confrontation.

The reason Su Wen recognized Lu Jianan was because of that signing event. When he suddenly asked why she was there, she felt awkward.

Given their distant relationship, why would she ask such a question?

Despite her confusion, Su Wen answered, “I’m here for something.”

After a brief pause, she added politely, “What about you? Are you here for something?”

“No!” Lu Jianan blurted out, realizing immediately how odd her question had been. Since she had asked, she couldn’t take it back.

She braced herself for a sharp retort from Su Wen, something along the lines of, “What does my being here have to do with you? Are we close?” However, Su Wen answered civilly and even made some polite conversation.

Whether it was genuine courtesy or just politeness, Lu Jianan couldn’t help but feel discontent. She would have preferred if Su Wen were rude and unrefined, as it would justify his animosity and make it easier to support Zishan in attacking her.

But Su Wen’s polite demeanour didn’t fit that narrative, making her feel uncomfortable, especially after the previous stampede incident which had already made her feel like a villain.

“I work here,” Lu Jianan said politely.

Only then did Su Wen notice the work badge around his neck. She glanced at it and realized she held a significant position at the film studio. Though currently a small leader, she was on track to become a major player in the entertainment industry. Those from the capital often had natural advantages over those from other cities.

Su Wen mused inwardly, realizing that despite appearing inconspicuous next to Song Zishan, Lu Jianan was quite capable in her career.

Their conversation felt awkward, bordering on hostility. After the stampede incident, Song Zishan had marked Su Wen as an enemy. Logically, Lu Jianan should have left after a few awkward words, but she hesitated, lingering with a troubled expression.

Su Wen found this odd. Despite being Song Zishan’s best friend, Lu Jianan’s personality seemed quite different.

“Do you know Song Jinyan?” Lu Jianan asked after a minute of contemplation.

Initially, she hadn’t intended to ask anyone about this. However, running into Su Wen prompted him to ask. Yesterday, Zishan left Big Brother Song’s office upset, claiming he treated her poorly because of Su Wen.

Big Brother Song liked Su Wen.

In her anger, Zishan said he betrayed his cousin to please a married woman. She was deeply upset and her hatred for Su Wen intensified.

Lu Jianan had comforted Zishan, hiding her tears later. She couldn’t bear Zishan’s pain and anger, especially since she had harboured feelings for Big Brother Song for ten years.

She didn’t believe Big Brother Song would act irrationally because of love. Even if he liked Su Wen, he wouldn’t do something foolish. This was tied to Lu Jianan’s decade-long unrequited love, and she needed to know the truth.
