Chapter 351 Leading her there
Seeing Fang Li's expression change, he immediately put on a gentle smile, "Teacher Xu, when did you arrive? I thought you would be with President Han tonight and wouldn't come to see us!"
"How could I? We're colleagues after all, I should have come over and said hello no matter what."
"Li Fan, as Teacher Xu just said, you've been doing well lately. I hope you can keep up the good work."
"That's right. As long as you stay true to your duties and film well, Teacher Xu won't hold you accountable for your past irrational behavior."
"Really!"
Li Fan looked at Xu Fangli excitedly and raised his glass to her, "Teacher Xu, don't worry, I will definitely get along well with everyone in the future and won't do those childish things again!"
Fang Li smiled, looked at the wine glass he was holding, and gently clinked her glass with his. "Alright, then I wish us a pleasant collaboration in the future."
"Happy cooperation!"
The atmosphere here became exceptionally good after that.
Everyone chatted casually, occasionally cracking a joke, as if they were truly a very harmonious team.
Li Fan sat diagonally opposite Fang Li, occasionally interjecting with a few words, his attitude so natural that all the previous conflicts seemed to have vanished.
"Teacher Xu, I've read the rest of the script, and the emotional transitions are absolutely brilliant. I really didn't expect that the emotional progression between the main characters would be done in this way!"
Li Fan spoke sincerely, raising his glass, "A toast to you."
Fang Li smiled faintly, lightly touched the rim of her glass to his, and took a small sip.
"By the way, we're currently only getting scripts for each segment we film. I heard the complete script has been written. When can we see the full story?"
Fang Li glanced at Li Fan and said, "The second half of the script is still being revised, but it should be done soon. You'll definitely be able to see it once that part is filmed."
"Oh, that's a real shame. It looks like I'll be having trouble sleeping for quite a while."
Li Fan pursed his lips with a hint of regret, while Fang Li took a sip of wine but smiled without saying a word.
Before long, Fang Li's glass was empty. Just then, a waiter came over with a tray. Li Fan waved to him and took all the wine from the tray.
He generously poured a glass for Fang Li, smiling innocently: "Want another glass? This champagne tastes pretty good."
Zhu Shun and Li Huijie also took the wine from the table one after the other, and Fang Li hesitated for a moment before reaching out to take it.
Everyone had a drink in their hands, and they sat together, clinked glasses, and chatted for a few minutes.
We chatted for about ten minutes before the conversation gradually came to an end.
Fang Li made up an excuse and left. When she returned to her previous seat, she found that someone else had taken it. Looking around, she couldn't see Wen Yang anywhere.
Fang Li searched around and found Zhou Yufan.
He was standing and chatting with Jing Sen and a few people from Wenxi Film and Television.
Fang Li went over to him and asked, "Have you seen Yangyang?"
"No, isn't she with you?"
Fang Li frowned.
Zhou Yufan looked around and saw everyone chatting and laughing, drinking and having fun. He said, "They probably just went to the restroom. There are so many people here, nothing will happen."
"Ok, I know."
"How about I go with you to look for her?"
"It's okay, I'll go to the restroom first and see if I can find it. We'll talk about it then."
Zhou Yufan nodded, and Fang Li turned and walked towards the restroom.
The banquet hall's restrooms are located at the innermost corner, connected to the hotel's fire escape, while on the other side are two elevators that go directly to the guest rooms upstairs.
Fang Li followed the hotel signs to the restroom. When she entered the women's restroom, she called out to Wen Yang twice, but received no response. She then went in and pushed open each restroom door, only to find that they were all empty.
"Strange..." she murmured to herself, then took out her phone to call Wen Yang.
The call connected quickly, but no one answered.
Fang Li called twice, but no one answered.
She had a bad feeling. She had just stepped out and was about to call Yu Tian when she suddenly heard footsteps behind her.
"Teacher Xu?"
Fang Li frowned, but instantly returned to normal as she turned around.
Sure enough, behind him was Li Fan, whom he had only parted ways with not long ago.
His face was slightly flushed, but you could tell from his tone of voice that he was still sober.
Are you looking for Miss Wen?
A fleeting sense of vigilance crossed Fang Li's mind.
When did Li Fan meet Wen Yang?
How did he know she was looking for Wen Yang?
Fang Li smiled slightly and looked at him calmly: "Yes, you saw her?"
Li Fan nodded, his tone concerned: "Miss Wen seems to have had too much to drink and is feeling a bit unwell. I've had someone take her upstairs to her room to rest."
Now, even if Fang Li was stupid, she could tell there was something wrong with it.
Meeting Li Fan's sincere and worried gaze, Fang Li's eyes darkened slightly, but her face remained expressionless: "Really? Which room?"
"The waiter just picked a room, I think it's 1806. Shall I take you there?"
Li Fan smiled and turned to the side, gesturing for them to proceed.
Fang Li stared into his eyes and suddenly smiled, "Okay, thank you for your help."
She appeared calm on the surface, but her heart had already turned cold.
Even if Li Fan didn't know when he met Wen Yang, he probably never imagined that Wen Yang wasn't so easily intoxicated.
Given Wen Yang's alcohol tolerance, it would take two or three ordinary people to get her drunk, let alone how long she had been gone. How could Wen Yang get drunk so quickly?
It's obvious that Li Fan is lying.
He probably wanted to use Wen Yang to lure her there.
After pretending to be so positive and well-behaved all this time, it seems she finally couldn't hold back anymore.
Fang Li naturally knew that something bad might happen if she went there.
But... if Wen Yang is really in their hands, she can't just ignore it.

In the elevator.
Li Fan pressed the button for the 18th floor, stood beside Fang Li, and said in a natural tone, "Teacher Xu, although I have said it many times, I still want to apologize to you again for what happened before. Don't worry, I will definitely do my best in filming in the future and live up to your script."
Fang Li smiled slightly but did not reply.
As the elevator slowly ascended, she lightly pressed the side of her phone with her fingertip, and her emergency contact was automatically dialed.
At that time, it was in the lounge on the second floor of the banquet hall.
Han Xi was wondering why Fang Li hadn't come in yet and was about to get up to go find her when his phone suddenly vibrated in his pocket. He had a sudden thought, took out his phone, glanced at the caller ID, and his long eyebrows immediately furrowed.
Long fingers swiped the screen rapidly, and the moment the call connected, a male voice came from the other end:
"Miss Wen is in room 1806 up ahead. Don't worry, she's just a little dizzy... The hotel has provided hangover soup, and I've already arranged for someone to get it. She'll be fine after drinking it in a bit."
"Really? Thank you for your help."
This is Fang Li's voice.
Upon hearing Fang Li's voice, Han Xi's eyes turned cold, and he immediately turned and walked outside.
Tang Chen raised an eyebrow: "What happened?"
Han Xi didn't answer, but directly dialed Yu Tian's number: "Fang Li has been taken to the 18th floor by Li Fan. Immediately seal off the elevator and stairwell."
Upon hearing this, Tang Chen and Jian Yunqi, who were sitting on the sofa behind him, immediately changed their expressions. They exchanged a glance, got up together, and followed Han Xi out.
