That evening, as the sky gradually darkened, a new moon rose into the sky, surrounded by a few stars.

Nan Yan changed her clothes and went downstairs. Ye Jingya, who was sitting in the living room, looked over. On seeing how her daughter was dressed, she had to ask, “Where are you going? We’re going to eat soon.”

“I’m going to Tanqing’s place, so you can just eat with Dad.” Nan Yan waved at her lazily and left.

Nan Yan drove her Porsche 918 to the Anqin Studio. She parked and walked upstairs, where she saw Su Tanqing standing in front of a gorgeous background striking various poses.

“Miss Nan, welcome. Miss Su only has one last bit of shooting left. It will be over soon, so just wait for a moment.” Su Tanqing’s assistant hurriedly walked over and greeted her.

Nan Yan nodded, smiled, and sat down on the sofa in the rest area. “All right, that’s okay.”

After about 20 more minutes of work, Su Tanqing had finished. She put on the jacket that was handed to her by her assistant and then smiled at the staff and said, “Thank you.” She walked over to where Nan Yan was sitting. She picked up a cup of hot coffee and took a sip.

“Are you finished?” Nan Yan asked, smiling.

“Yep, I’m exhausted.” Su Tanqing sighed leisurely and put down the coffee cup. 

“Yan Yan, you haven’t eaten dinner yet, have you? Let me treat you.”

Nan Yan smiled and stood up. “Let’s go! I was waiting for you to say that.”

The two of them went to a nearby restaurant. After ordering food, Su Tanqing looked at Nan Yan’s relaxed mannerisms, and she raised her glass. “Speaking of which, it has been several days since your marriage agreement was called off, but I haven’t congratulated you yet. You took back the leg that had entered the marriage grave in time and got out of the sea of ​​suffering.”

“I’m driving, so I won’t drink.” Nan Yan’s slender fingertips ran down the crystal wine glass, and she took a sip from her water glass instead.

“Speaking of which, your ex-fiance and his so-called schoolgirl girlfriend are quite miserable now.” Knowing that Nan Yan had never liked alcohol, Su Tanqing didn’t care. She laughed and teased her.

“It has nothing to do with me.” Nan Yan raised her eyebrows in a questioning way. “The urgent matter that needed my saving that you referred to on the phone was just gossiping about my business?”

“Of course not.” Su Tanqing raised her head and put down the wine glass she had been holding. With a serious expression on her face, she said, “I really have a favor to ask you.”

“A favor to ask me?” Nan Yan stared at her curiously. It really was a surprise to hear that from her mouth. “Young Madam Su actually has a favor to ask me. Tomorrow, the sun will probably rise in the west. ”

Su Tanqing was the heiress of the Su Corporation. She also had a younger brother who was studying at college. She had been Nan Yan’s best friend ever since childhood. At this time, she was a popular celebrity on the rise. After winning the Golden Image Award, she had become insanely sought after in the entertainment industry.

Every time that Nan Yan spent time with Su Tanqing, whether it was going out to go shopping or eating in a restaurant, Nan Yan could feel that she was under a lot of pressure. She felt as if she could be overrun by her fans at any time.

“I was serious.”

“Speak.”

“I have an exclusive photo shoot tomorrow. However, my personal photographer can’t come tomorrow because he has something urgent to take care of. He had to take a leave of absence today. He has some urgent matters going on in his family, so I couldn’t not agree. In addition, I can’t push back the exclusive photo shoot. You also know my pet peeve. There aren’t many photographers who can satisfy me, so… Photographer Nan, could you please do me the great favor of helping me tomorrow?” Su Tanqing looked at her pleadingly with both hands clasped together.
