Chapter 205

"These escorts still don't know about the thing between the madam and Wang Li. I really can't imagine the impact they must have felt when they saw that scene just now."

Yi Tiantian's eyes were shining as he stretched his neck toward the entrance, a bowl of red bean paste dessert given by the teahouse forgotten in his hand.

The other crew members sitting next to him also stretched their necks toward the main entrance, their expressions filled with excitement.

The group of escorts at the entrance were all dressed to impress, some with muscular bodies, some with elegant manners, and some with delicate features. There were all types to satisfy the various tastes of the rich ladies.

At that moment, their faces were frozen in identical shock.

That's because this group had just witnessed "Mom" kissing their former colleague Wang Li!

It was like getting hit by lightning out of the blue!

A few of them stood frozen, as if struck by lightning. The rebellious man in the suit at the front, with his hands in his pockets and sunglasses on, looked up from under his sunglasses at Liu Juanhua and Wang Li, who had just been kissing on stage.

The other escorts behind him were equally astonished, nearly choking on their own saliva as if they had just witnessed some unbelievable scene.

No way, did they really just see that?!!

Yi Tiantian couldn't help but laugh as he watched them.

He finally picked up the red bean paste dessert and took a happy bite.

As he chewed, the fragrance of the red bean paste filled his mouth.

At that moment, Liu Juanhua and Wang Li finally noticed the group of people standing at the entrance, as if they had been frozen in place. They quickly raised their arms to wipe the saliva that had just been all over each other's mouths, then hurried toward the entrance.

Along the way, they tried to figure out how to explain it away, racking their brains to smooth over what had just happened.

"Now Liu Juanhua and Wang Li must be panicking!"

"But there's no way they'll admit that they're actually together!"

Yi Tiantian savored his cup of fragrant tea, silently enjoying the drama in his mind.

But what he didn't know was that this time, his inner thoughts weren't just heard by the crew members next to him—they were also heard by the entertainment industry workers among the group of escorts at the entrance.

Director Xiao He looked up toward the entrance, where everyone was gossiping. She wanted to see if there were any small stars from the entertainment industry. Maybe she would recognize someone.

And sure enough, it was a young actor she had worked with before!

Director Xiao He squinted and looked toward the entrance. There, she saw a man with a Korean slick-back hairstyle, wearing a white suit. Most impressively, he had the build of a double-door refrigerator.

That's right! This person was a small actor she had worked with before!

When this young actor had first joined the crew, he had the same great build, and many of the production assistants had a crush on him. But who would have thought he would end up in this line of work? It was really hard to believe.

Yi Tiantian had no idea which of these people were entertainment industry insiders. All he knew was that now Liu Juanhua and Wang Li were both busy lying, trying to cover up what had just happened.

Liu Juanhua, wearing a light green cheongsam, forced herself to stay calm and took small, hurried steps toward the entrance. Wang Li followed closely behind her, both of their expressions filled with excitement, as if they had just seen a familiar relative.

Of course, there was a touch of guilt mixed in.

But at this moment, a singer dressed in a light yellow qipao had already taken the stage in the teahouse, singing a sweet and coquettish love song.

Accompanied by this sugary love song, Liu Juanhua and Wang Li finally arrived in front of the group.

However, it was clear that the male escorts still hadn’t recovered from the earlier shock. They looked at "Mom" Liu Juanhua, then at their former colleague Wang Li, as if using their eyes to ask what had just happened between the two of them.

But Liu Juanhua skillfully avoided the key point. As if she hadn’t seen the confusion in their eyes at all, she tearfully grabbed the hands of the first two escorts in front of her.

"You're finally here! It's been such a long time!"

Liu Juanhua's expression was exceptionally emotional, and tears even welled up in the corners of her eyes. She instinctively reached out to wipe away the tears.

"Mom, you… you two…"

The ringleader finally spoke. He looked at the two awkwardly as he removed his sunglasses.

Although Wang Li was quite young, he had already navigated the escort scene for a full three years. Serving wealthy older women required extremely high emotional intelligence, so he was very adept at handling social situations. Lying was no big deal for him.

So Wang Li simply looked at everyone excitedly, pretending as if nothing had happened.

The ringleader even began to wonder if he had been daydreaming earlier. Why did these two look so innocent?

Just as everyone started doubting themselves, some of them seemed to hear strange voices.

"This mother-and-son duo's acting is really good! They can easily fool this group of people!"

"Oh, come on! Ask them! You all saw them kissing just now!"

While most of the people were watching the emotional love song, Yi Tiantian was still listening intently for gossip. He felt like his ears had evolved just to catch all the drama.

The staff of the crew, led by Yi Tiantian, all looked toward the entrance, enjoying the show.

"You two…"

The ringleader had also spent a few months in the entertainment industry, so naturally, he could hear Yi Tiantian's inner thoughts. He frowned confusedly at the two, then turned back to the others, wanting to tell them what he had just heard.

But now it was as if his mouth was frozen in place, unable to speak. No matter how hard he tried, his mouth would just automatically close.

The ringleader thought something was seriously wrong—why couldn’t he speak?

But he wasn’t the only one unable to speak. The other escorts realized his intention and were about to agree, but they also found themselves unable to speak.

What on earth had they heard just now?

Everyone was confused.

Liu Juanhua and Wang Li also clearly noticed that this group seemed like they were about to say something, but in the end, they remained silent, which made their hearts tighten.

For them, pretending to be a couple in an age-gap romance was very embarrassing, so they didn’t want these former colleagues to know about their relationship.

But at this moment, Yi Tiantian's inner thoughts once again floated into everyone's ears.

"I bet they won’t admit to being in a contract marriage!"

"And in the time that follows, Liu Juanhua and Wang Li will completely avoid any intimate contact between them!"

The escorts were even more intrigued by what they had just overheard.

What do you mean they are in a marriage of convenience?!

Mom, and Wang Li?!

Everyone was so stunned they could barely move, as if turned to stone.

But Liu Juanhua and Wang Li didn’t seem to notice the shock. Instead, they led everyone to their seats and served them tea and snacks.

The escorts were led to a corner table. Just as Liu Juanhua and Wang Li were about to make an excuse to leave, the ringleader and the rest of the escorts called out to them.

"Mom, you and Wang Li, is your relationship really good now..." the ringleader swallowed hard, speaking carefully.

Liu Juanhua's hands paused for a moment, but she quickly returned to normal. She smiled and looked at all the escorts who were intently staring at her. Then she replied, "Of course. After we moved on from the past, we partnered together to open this teahouse. Our relationship is naturally much better than before."

Wang Li also wore an awkward smile and nodded in agreement.

"Ah... I see..." The ringleader held the teacup with one hand and tilted his head back to drink a gulp of tea.

Seeing the sincere expressions of Mom and Wang Li, they thought perhaps they had just misunderstood. Maybe it was just the angle on stage that made them look like they were kissing!

But the next second, Yi Tiantian's words shattered these people's illusions ruthlessly.

"I won’t buy it for a second if anyone says they’re not close!"

"Because Liu Juanhua and Wang Li are already living together! And they got matching tattoos at a shop recently!"

"On the wrists of this unlikely couple, they each have tattoos of the other's initials!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the rest of the people all looked at Liu Juanhua and Wang Li's arms.

Since it was a formal occasion, Wang Li wore a long-sleeved white shirt, hiding any tattoos on his wrist.

But Mom was different. She was wearing a short-sleeved light green qipao, so the tattoo on her wrist was clearly visible.

When everyone looked over, they indeed saw two English letters tattooed there.

"WC."

The ringleader and the others were shocked.

Why would Mom get the initials for a bathroom tattooed on her arm?!

What a waste!

But Yi Tiantian's words explained everything.

"It just goes to show how careless they were when picking their aliases!"

"On their social media accounts, Wang Li's alias is Wang Chen, so the tattoo 'WC' on Liu Juanhua's arm stands for Wang Chen!"

"If these people watched more social media channels, they would have found the loving videos of the two!"

As soon as Yi Tiantian finished, one of the escorts immediately took out their phone to search for the name "Wang Chen."

While waiting for the browser to load, Liu Juanhua and Wang Li could finally no longer sit still.
