Watching Bai Yuqi leave, Yu Linwan was so angry that she smashed things for a long time, almost destroying an entire office. Then she called the person in charge of the variety show and said, "Go, promote Mo Jianing with all your might. Arrange all the trending searches and activities! I want her to be completely famous!"
Mo Jianing was backed by the Young Master. Only by completely winning over Mo Jianing could she have a chance to get to know the Young Master through her.
At that time, she wouldn't have to put Bai Yuqi in her eyes anymore!
She, Yu Linwan, was done with being at the mercy of others. Yu Linwan was destined to be the undisputed queen!
Bai Yuqi kept his word and treated Yu Yin'yin to a big meal.
In the luxurious restaurant, Yu Yin'yin felt somewhat at a loss.
Why were there no Chinese characters on this menu...
What did these stars mean? And where were the little crowns?
Royal cuisine?
How... how should she order?
Should she just point randomly...
Yu Yin'yin couldn't help but frown, her expression troubled.
"What? Never been to this kind of restaurant before?" Bai Yuqi's gaze shifted from the menu to Yu Yin'yin, who was sitting opposite him.
"I... worked here before." Yu Yin'yin's voice was a little low. She had worked here before to make a living, but because of her ugly appearance, she had never been to the front of the house, only helped in the kitchen.
Later, someone reported her, saying she was too ugly and that seeing her face unexpectedly would scare people, which seriously affected the kitchen's work efficiency.
She was fired again, a very brief and very painful experience.
"It's okay, leave it to me." Bai Yuqi snapped his fingers and called the waiter. "What is today's chef's recommendation?"
The waiter immediately listed a few dishes and fresh ingredients.
"Hmm... then these will do," Bai Yuqi said. "By the way, I prefer sweet."
After saying that, Bai Yuqi closed the menu, casually picked up the water glass on the table, took a sip, and raised an eyebrow at Yu Yin'yin, signaling her to say the same.
"Okay." The waiter responded and looked at Yu Yin'yin again.
"I... I'll have the same," Yu Yin'yin said, closing the beautifully bound menu, her voice a little nervous. "I... I don't like it too sweet."
"Pfft..." Bai Yuqi couldn't help but laugh out loud, even coughing as he choked on water.
Yu Yin'yin's face immediately turned red. She covered her face with the closed menu and pursed her lips.
Heavens, had she lost all the face she could possibly lose for the next half of her life today?
Why was it in front of him!
It was simply dreadful!
"She has a light palate," Bai Yuqi said to the bewildered waiter, smiling. "Avoid spicy."
"Okay, please wait a moment." The waiter responded and collected the menu.
Bai Yuqi savored Yu Yin'yin's earlier words and couldn't help but chuckle again.
"Did I... embarrass you?" Yu Yin'yin asked softly.
"Not at all." Bai Yuqi then put away his smile and coughed lightly, saying, "You're going into the entertainment industry, aren't you?"
"Yes, I like to sing," Yu Yin'yin said.
"Your voice is quite good," Bai Yuqi said. "If you enter the entertainment industry, you'll need to attend social events. If you encounter situations where you need to come to this kind of restaurant, you'll have some experience."
As he spoke, Bai Yuqi picked up the aperitif that the waiter had just brought: "Cheers."
"Cheers..." Yu Yin'yin raised her aperitif and clinked glasses with Bai Yuqi, taking a sip. The sweet orange-flavored aperitif was both sour and sweet, and very delicious.
During the rest of the meal, Bai Yuqi also told Yu Yin'yin many details about etiquette. Yu Yin'yin listened attentively, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Bai Yuqi.
She genuinely felt that this person was truly amazing.
Kind, sincere, warm, knowledgeable, wise, and elegant...
How could there be such a good person in the world?
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Bai Yuqi asked midway, seeing Yu Yin'yin's gaze.
"No, I just feel like you know so much..." Yu Yin'yin said with a dry laugh.
"After all, the person in front of you is the greatest detective of this century, known as Sherlock Qi!" Bai Yuqi boasted, puffing out his chin.
"Wow... that's amazing..." Yu Yin'yin said sincerely.
"..." Usually, when Bai Yuqi said this, he would be mocked. This was the first time someone had cooperated so well, and with such a sincere attitude, that it completely stumped Bai Yuqi.
In the end, he could only awkwardly urge Yu Yin'yin to eat more.
After the meal, Bai Yuqi escorted Yu Yin'yin back to the Xia family.
"Bye-bye, see you again if fate allows~" Bai Yuqi, who hadn't gotten out of the car, simply flicked his finger at his eyebrow and drove away in his flashy red sports car.
"See... you..." Yu Yin'yin watched the car's tail lights fade into the distance, a complex emotion welling up in her heart.
Such a good person truly existed.
Why did such a good person have to meet her?
Yu Yin'yin took a deep breath. Before she could dwell on her disappointment, she turned and walked into the Xia family villa. She still had to thank Xia Qingtian.
She had already caused Xia Qingtian a lot of trouble. This time, she wanted to apologize to Xia Qingtian properly, and then figure out how to earn money to pay off her debts.
And her face...
Thinking this, Yu Yin'yin walked into the Xia family with heavy steps, only to find that Xia Qingtian was already waiting for her, along with someone she never would have imagined.
"Hello, I'm Wen Ning, a manager under Gu's Entertainment." Wen Ning sized up Yu Yin'yin and then主动 extended her hand.
Yu Yin'yin was stunned for a moment, and only after Xia Qingtian reminded her did she extend her hand to shake hands with Wen Ning.
After that, Wen Ning mentioned that Xia Qingtian had strongly recommended Yu Yin'yin and stated that she had heard Yu Yin'yin's singing. If possible, she hoped to go to the recording studio immediately to record songs, and if it was fine, they would sign the contract on the spot.
Yu Yin'yin was completely dazed. After all of this was done, Yu Yin'yin looked at the contract in front of her, her whole body trembling. Was she dreaming?
"Take a look at the contract. If it's okay, you can sign it," Wen Ning said casually while handling work on her phone.
With the previous experience of Wanyuan Entertainment, Yu Yin'yin read the contract very carefully this time. Fortunately, Wen Ning didn't seem to be in a hurry and was just working on her own tasks.
After reading the contract completely, Yu Yin'yin let out a sigh of relief and looked at Wen Ning, saying, "I've finished reading it."
"Yes, if there are no problems, you can sign it," Wen Ning said casually.
"There's one more thing," Yu Yin'yin said to Wen Ning.
Wen Ning then looked up at Yu Yin'yin: "Yes?"
"My face... was burned in a fire earlier. I... was disfigured, and this is the appearance after treatment," Yu Yin'yin said, gathering her courage.
Even though saying such a thing might cause her to lose this opportunity.
But... Wen Ning had come because of Xia Qingtian's recommendation, and Yu Yin'yin didn't want to make things difficult for Xia Qingtian in the future because of her.
She had to say this.
