Chapter 203 Invitation203 Invitation
Jiang Chen stood next to Yuan Shu and waited for her to finish the call. However, his expression became more and more stiff.
Although Yuan Shu's tone was very calm and it didn't sound like a husband and wife chatting at all, Jiang Chen was still keenly aware of Yuan Shu's trust in Shi Xiao. This trust made the conversation between the two of them quite casual.
Yuan Shu was a very vigilant person, so it was definitely not easy to make her change like this.
Jiang Chen had neglected the fact that Yuan Shu and Shi Xiao spent every day together, so it was naturally easier for them to become closer than ordinary people. If they continued to interact like this, their relationship would only become closer.
Jiang Chen's gaze suddenly turned cold and he already had a plan in mind. He had to act faster.
Yuan Shu hung up the phone and handed the phone to Zhang Chao, who was waiting at the side. Then she looked at Jiang Chen again.

Jiang Chen took the initiative to say, "You weren't feeling well just now, so I communicated with the director. We won't be filming tonight. Shall we find a place to drink?"
Yuan Shu also had many questions for him, so she didn't object to this suggestion.
She nodded and followed Jiang Chen out.
Jiang Chen didn't invite Zhang Chao, so it wasn't appropriate for him to follow them. Zhang Chao watched the two of them leave, but then he suddenly remembered that Yuan Shu's phone was still with him, so he immediately shouted, "Madam Shi, you didn't take your cell phone!"
Yuan Shu stopped and looked back at him. "Help me hold it first."

Yuan Shu asked the next question, "Then why didn't you tell me that you were Jiang Chen?"
Zhang Chao sighed. When could Madam Shi change her habit of not bringing her cell phone with her?! Every time there was something urgent, he couldn't contact her!
However, Zhang Chao only dared to complain to himself. He didn't dare to say it out loud!
Jiang Chen brought Yuan Shu to a cafe with a good environment and sat in a cubicle by the window on the first floor. As it was already nighttime, there were very few people drinking coffee, so the cafe was very quiet. There was only elegant classical music and the occasional sound of conversation.
Considering that it was already nighttime, Jiang Chen ordered two cups of milk tea and a piece of Matcha Basque cake.
After the tea was served, Yuan Shu stirred the milk tea in the cup with a small iron spoon, forming a small vortex on the surface of the milk tea. Yuan Shu stared at the small vortex in a daze.
She had so many questions to ask, but she didn't know where to start. She suddenly couldn't remember all the doubts she had about Jiang Chen just now, so after thinking for a long time, Yuan Shu started the first topic of the night. "Why did you appear with a fake identity?"
After hearing this question, Jiang Chen was a little disappointed. He felt that if Zhang Chao hadn't interrupted the conversation between the two of them just now, Yuan Shu would have asked the question he was looking forward to.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJiang Chen answered Yuan Shu seriously, "Mu Zhou isn't a fake identity. He's a real person. He's me, and I'm him. Jiang Chen is my real name, but I prefer Mu Zhou's identity."
Jiang Chen's expression was very sincere, so Yuan Shu felt that her question was too arbitrary. Was there a rule that people weren't to have an alias?
Yuan Shu asked the next question, "Then why didn't you tell me that you were Jiang Chen?"
"Because I didn't have a chance to tell you."
Jiang Chen didn't answer Yuan Shu's question, but it was the truth.
Before today, the two of them had met many times, but there was no chance to reveal this matter.
It was their first meeting. Naturally, he wouldn't reveal his identity to a person he met for the first time. Their subsequent meeting was when he tried to make Yuan Shu play the female lead in this movie.
Later, when they finally became friends, Jiang Chen did want to tell Yuan Shu about this, but Shi Xiao came back.
With the relationship between the Jiang family and the Shi family, once it was exposed, the friendship between Jiang Chen and Yuan Shu would probably end right there.
Yuan Shu wasn't someone who dilly-dallied. If they were destined to be enemies, Yuan Shu would definitely cut the Gordian knot.
