Xia Yangyang said, “You guys keep rehearsing. I’ll handle the costumes.”

Once she finished speaking, Xia Yangyang ran out of the auditorium.

Wen Xiaochu called after her, “Yangyang, where are you going?”

Xia Yangyang went straight to Shi Chuan Entertainment.

She’d already called Shen Shichuan on her way.

So she had no trouble heading straight up to the CEO’s office.

Shen Shichuan’s secretary, Zhou Fei, recognized her and said, “The CEO is in a meeting, Miss Xia. Please wait here for a moment.”

Xia Yangyang had been waiting at the office for less than five minutes when Shen Shichuan returned.

“You’re reaching out to me for the first time since the TV series wrapped,” Shen Shichuan entered with a calm demeanor.

Xia Yangyang quickly stood up, “CEO Shen, I have a favor to ask.”

“Ah Chen and I are good friends, and you’re his wife. It seems a bit distant to call me CEO Shen.”

Xia Yangyang was stumped for a moment, “Brother Shen.”

Shen Shichuan asked, “What do you need my help with?”

Xia Yangyang explained her involvement in the school’s drama performance.

Xia Yangyang added, “You’re a major figure in the entertainment industry, so I thought you might be able to connect us with a drama troupe to borrow some props.”

Shen Shichuan assured her, “This is a small matter. Shi Chuan has its own prop storage room. I’ll take you there later, and you can pick out what you need.”

Xia Yangyang breathed a sigh of relief, her eyes crinkling in a smile, “Thank you, Brother Shen.”

Shen Shichuan asked her, “But I have a question. Your father could have easily handled this. Why did you come to me?”

Xia Yangyang explained, “My dad’s been pretty busy lately. He’s left all the matters of Starlight to my stepmother, so…”

In recent years, Xia Liangdong mainly focused on investment, leaving various matters of Starlight to Liu Ruyan.

For Xia Yangyang, it would be better to ask Shen Shichuan for help, than Liu Ruyan.

Shen Shichuan understood instantly, and didn’t pry further.

Shen Shichuan changed the subject, “Since I helped you out, it’s only fair you repay the favor, right?”

Xia Yangyang was taken aback, wondering what she could possibly help him with.

Xia Yangyang replied, “As long as I’m capable, I’ll do my best.”

Shen Shichuan looked at his wristwatch and suggested, “It’s almost noon. How about treating me to lunch?”

So he wanted a meal from her. That seemed simple enough.

Xia Yangyang offered, “It’s only right that I treat you to a meal. What would you like?”

Shen Shichuan responded, “I feel like having noodles today.”

Xia Yangyang suggested, “How about we go to the Yun Ding restaurant for some Italian pasta?”

Yun Ding was the top restaurant in town, famous for its Italian noodles.

Shen Shichuan shook his head, “I’m not in the mood for fancy places today. Know any home-style noodle places?”

Home-style noodles?

Xia Yangyang pondered for a bit before her expression brightened,

“I know just the place. It’s right outside our school; I go there often.”

Shen Shichuan followed Xia Yangyang to Fengcai Noodle House, a small place on the campus snack street. He asked, “So you brought Ah Chen here before?”

Xia Yangyang was a bit smug, “Yes, I’ve brought him here before. He said it was really good.”

When the noodles arrived, they came in a huge bowl.

Xia Yangyang urged, “Eat it while it’s hot.”

After tasting a spoonful, a faint smile appeared on Shen Shichuan’s face.

Xia Yangyang asked, “Isn’t the flavor great?”

Shen Shichuan replied with a chuckle, “Of course. If even Ah Chen, with his fussy palate, approved, it must be a top-notch dish.”

The noodles here had the taste of home, but the beef was plain, and the excessive spices masked the original flavor of the soup.

Having grown up with Qi Chen, he knew just how picky Qi Chen could be, especially with food.

These noodles would never suit Qi Chen’s tastes.

If Qi Chen had said it was good, he must’ve done so to please the young lady in front of him.

Xia Yangyang beamed at him, her eyes turning into crescents, “If it’s good, then eat more.”

Shen Shichuan smiled warmly, ‘Alright, you eat more as well.’
