Chapter 1181: Chapter 1180: Still Not Done?
After a few days of filming, the journey had reached its halfway point. When they reached the coast, they could disembark for a day and board the next day to return.
As they were about to disembark, Zhang Zhiyou reminded Ye Ning, "This time you’re with Zhu Ziwen. Many journalists might swarm the pier, so be careful."
He gave Ye Ning a significant look, "Be careful."
That implication couldn’t be more obvious — he was warning her to be careful not to get photographed in compromising situations, like with her "benefactor" or something.
Ye Ning looked at him, "Don’t worry, it won’t happen."
She spoke so calmly that Zhang Zhiyou didn’t know what else to say.
He could only look at her, sighing.
When disembarking, people lined up to get off the ship.
They disembarked group by group, and then they would travel together with the group.
However, Ye Ning and her group didn’t have to join the tour. Since most had individual visas, those with visas had arrangements with the ship allowing them to wander freely after disembarking, without joining the group tour.
This was a bit of a privilege for them as they were there for filming. Usually, one cannot leave the group on such cruise tours.
As people disembarked, Ye Ning and her group used a separate passage and got off by themselves.
Outside, as anticipated, many journalists were surrounding the area. When they saw Ye Ning and Zhu Ziwen come down, they immediately crowded around.
"How does it feel to be cooperating for the first time?"
"Did any sparks fly between you two?"
"Netizens spotted you two playing together in an internet café. What’s your relationship like in private?"
Zhu Ziwen smiled and didn’t speak.
Ye Ning casually greeted them.
The agents quickly approached the journalists, saying, "We’ll send you the press releases later for your questions. There are too many people here; please pay attention to safety. Thank you for your hard work; let’s grab something to eat here."
Upon hearing there would be press releases, the journalists took a few photos and videos, then went to eat what the crew prepared.
Back in their country, there would still be crew set visit days, so the journalists weren’t in a hurry to get all the answers.
The pier was chaotic. After Ye Ning disembarked, she heard Zhu Ziwen on the side saying, "Where are you heading today? How about I take you for a walk?"
Ye Ning smiled, looked up, and saw Mu Yeli’s people preparing to set off. It seemed the car was ready. She said, "No need, I’m going to visit a friend. See you when we return; I’ve already planned it with my friend."
Zhu Ziwen didn’t want to face it; he was rejected again.
He wasn’t too surprised anymore.
At first, when he was rejected, he doubted himself, questioning when he lost his charm.
Perhaps he was truly spoiled. He used to think that when he made an advance, it was hard for any woman to resist.
Because in the past, all the women he met pursued him, none of them indifferent.
Even when he wasn’t famous, there were plenty of women willing to throw themselves at him.
But Ye Ning was an exception.
She continuously rejected him, regardless of how he invited her.
Zhu Ziwen said, "Since you already agreed with a friend, there’s nothing we can do. See you tomorrow then."
Ye Ning smiled, waved at him, and then headed out to wait for Mu Yeli.
After the journalists left, she left with Mu Yeli in the car.
Meanwhile...
Zhu Ziwen, with the wind at his back, walked into the parking lot.
His phone rang; he picked it up.
"You still haven’t managed to get it done?"
