Chapter 1004 - 13: Secretly Pleading on Her Behalf?
Zimei prided herself on making the right decisions in many matters, but this time, helping Zhu Jianian was one of the rare regrets she had.Ye Cheng did come looking for her, but the result was counterproductive, and their relationship seemed to drift further apart.
Not only that, because she offended the most prestigious man in Rongcheng, the Zimei Club was ordered to suspend operations for six months.
The losses were severe.
Depressed, Zimei scrolled through Ye Cheng’s Weibo and left a comment: "Hubby~ I did something stupid, is there still a chance to make amends?"
Staring at that line of text, she suddenly laughed at herself and tossed the phone aside.
Ye Cheng probably would never know that the fan calling him ’hubby’ every day was her, right?
With the club closed, Zimei found herself with nothing to do.
Lu Shanhu dragged her to meet other business partners, but her mood was low throughout, and even her smiles were perfunctory. During the meeting, she called Ye Cheng, hoping to ask him to plead with Mr. Gu for leniency.
However, before she could finish speaking, the call was mercilessly cut off.
Staring at the darkened screen, Zimei smiled bitterly; he probably thought she brought this upon herself.
Yet, just when she had no expectations left, Mr. Gu’s assistant suddenly called to inform her that, for Mr. Ye’s sake, the club’s shutdown was reduced to one month.
Zimei could hardly believe her ears.
Had Ye Cheng secretly pleaded for her?
She held the phone, standing there with a silly grin, while Zhang Qi, who came in to report work, was once again shocked.
The boss was smiling again!
Should he take advantage of the boss’s good mood to bring up a raise?
Although happy inside, Zimei dared not recklessly seek out Ye Cheng, afraid of annoying him. Until one day, she heard that Ye Cheng had signed a female artist named Xia Duoduo.
Ye Cheng hadn’t taken on a new female artist in three years, and this sudden change of heart made Zimei feel uneasy.
Unable to sit still, she drove to the front of the Xingyao Entertainment Building.
Zimei sat in her car, anxiously waiting. She smoked one cigarette after another, her beautiful face tense with worry.
Finally, the end of the workday arrived.
Zimei saw Ye Cheng’s car slowly drive out of the underground garage, with a young girl prominently sitting in the front passenger seat.
And that girl, whom Zimei had already investigated: a rebellious C-list actress chasing a celebrity dream despite having the privilege of being a rich lady.
Because she was a close friend of the Ji Family’s young lady, she got an exceptional entry into Xingyao Entertainment Company and had Ye Cheng as her agent.
Zimei felt complicated; even Zhao Shu had never sat in the front passenger seat, so why could this girl who just entered the company?
She felt an unprecedented sense of crisis, hurriedly stubbed out her cigarette, and turned her car around to follow them.
Ye Cheng’s car stopped in front of an inconspicuous apartment building.
After the girl got out of the car, she seemed reluctant to part, bidding farewell to Ye Cheng through the car window, her eyes clearly filled with joy.
Ye Cheng, in contrast, didn’t show the indifference he usually had towards her.
He patiently chatted with Xia Duoduo for a few moments.
Zimei weakly propped her hands on the steering wheel, watching the scene where the girl animatedly talked to Ye Cheng, and felt an indescribable sensation in her heart.
Indeed, young, pretty, and lively girls; no man would dislike them, right?
And she... was even a year older than Ye Cheng.
Zimei felt a substantial blow.
Not even the rumors about Ye Cheng and Zhao Shu had hit her this hard. Because Ye Cheng had once said, Zhao Shu was like a sister to him.
He would never fall in love with a woman who was like a sister.
But this Xia Duoduo, she should be his type, right?
