My Hubby Can't Stop Pampering Me-Chapter 878 - 880 Passerby (6)
Chapter 878 -880 Passerby (6) Chapter 878 -880 Passerby (6) Xue Feifei almost lost her grip on her chopsticks, nearly dropping her food. She quickly stuffed it into her mouth and mumbled, “It’s nothing, just some problems with filming…”
“It doesn’t seem like it’s about filming. It’s off-stage issues. I heard that your drama is invested in by Yu Sixing’s family, did he scold you or treat you badly?”
Lu Weixi directly mentioning Yu Sixing startled Xue Feifei even more. Her acting skills, honed over five years in the entertainment industry, finally burst forth in this moment. She immediately looked up, her expression slightly serious, “That did happen. But it was because the incident blew up so much that it nearly spiraled out of control, and the movie was close to being scrapped. Director Yu invested a lot, so he was naturally a bit embarrassed and gave me a piece or two of his mind. Everything is fine now, and he’s very busy, so he only mentioned it once or twice in private as a warning. I really cherish this filming opportunity, so you don’t need to go and plead on my behalf. We’re not that close, and it wouldn’t be appropriate.”
Lu Weixi looked at her for a long time, and Xue Feifei kept a tight expression, looking very natural, and even picked out some dishes for her, “This mutton soup is quite good, do you want to try some?”
Only then did Lu Weixi nod, “If there’s anything in the future, tell me first, and I’ll help as much as I can.”

“Eh, what could possibly happen.” Xue Feifei laughed, feigning calmness, “But remember, dress up nicely tonight. Since Qin Zhizha and Cai Yiren are making such a display, it’s to intimidate you. Don’t get cold feet! Cai Yiren wouldn’t stand a chance against you in looks, not even with plastic surgery—unless she gets a whole new head!”
“You too. I heard that media journalists were also invited tonight, and Xiang Yirou is not someone to mess with, so dress beautifully to avoid her issuing statements to step on you after the event.”
“Got it.”
After finishing their meal, those few people by the door had long scattered. Lu Weixi drove herself, and Xue Feifei was picked up by her assistant; they temporarily parted ways. When she got back home, the assistant asked, “Do you need a special style or to borrow any clothes?”
Xue Feifei thought for a moment, then shook her head, “No need, just wear something suitable. Don’t dress up too grandly. After all, it’s someone else’s engagement party; don’t overshadow the hosts.”
In her heart, she thought, just hoping not to be entangled by Yu Sixing again would be good enough.

Night fell.
The five-star resort hotel in Yan City was brightly lit. The garden was filled with fresh flowers, and the castle-shaped rooms were adorned with fairy lights, even the pond was aglow with a plethora of floating lanterns. With the light reflecting off the water and the ribbons in the air, the atmosphere was especially dreamy, clearly the result of meticulous planning.
Qin Zhizha stood at the entrance in a white suit, surrounded by a few cronies who followed him around. Cai Yiren had yet to make an appearance, probably waiting for the most critical moment to give them a shock.
As the brother and sister-in-law, Qin Zhiyou and Lu Weixi also decided to play along with Qin Zhizha’s little scheme, pretending to be unaware of anything and attending the banquet openly and generously. They arrived at the hotel but weren’t in a hurry to enter, choosing to park and wait for someone instead.
However, Qin Zhizha was clearly a bit anxious, standing at the door continuously making phone calls. Today’s engagement ceremony was without the attendance of Old Master Qin, who hadn’t been feeling well and had gone to the hospital for treatment the day before. Of course, while he wasn’t present, the gifts were prepared and ready to be presented during the ceremony.
Additionally, Qin Zhigu had not yet returned.
