Song Chi’s home was in a high-end residential area with very strict management.
Zhou Yun, holding the address Zheng Xiaowen had helped her to find, asked someone to investigate, and was told by a friend that the security was very tight; non-residents couldn’t even enter the front gate without contact with a homeowner.
Thinking about it, there was no way Song Chi, with his status, would live somewhere others could enter at will.
Zhou Yun could only give up.
She had done everything she could for now, but Song Chi still wouldn’t forgive her, and there was no other way for her to obtain forgiveness.
She just felt a bit sorry for Song Chi.
Putting down her mobile phone, Zhou Yun looked up and saw Zheng Xiaojue.
Zheng Xiaojue was the assistant arranged for her by the company; she had just started today.
This surprised Zhou Yun, as she had assumed that after openly snubbing He Yong, she would not receive any further care from the company.
Noticing Zhou Yun’s gaze, Zheng Xiaojue looked up, immediately stood up, and asked, "Eldest Sister Yun, is there anything I can do for you?"
Zheng Xiaojue had a young air about her; she was only 18, having recently come of age, and had come from a small county town. She had trained for a month before being sent straight to Zhou Yun.
The nervousness of a young person at a new job was evident on Zheng Xiaojue’s face.
Seeing her greenness, Zhou Yun couldn’t help but smile with even more warmth.
"Help me get a cup of coffee, an iced latte."
Zheng Xiaojue, blushing, agreed and turned to leave.
As she was leaving, she almost bumped into Zhou Lan coming in.
Zhou Lan frowned in displeasure and scolded, "Clumsy."
Zheng Xiaojue apologized, stepped aside, and waited for Zhou Lan to enter before leaving.
Zhou Lan came in with a businesslike tone and said, "There are two businesses seeking collaboration with us, asking you to be their celebrity endorser."
Hearing this, Zhou Yun thought, an endorser? They’re probably not very good brands.
In this aspect, Zhou Yun was quite self-aware. Better-known brands, attracted by her popularity, would invite her to be a promotional ambassador or brand friend, but endorser deals were definitely off the table.
"One is Yiguang Beauty Device, the other is Xiao Mouth Snacks."
Zhou Yun had not heard of these names before.
"They’re not uncertified products, are they?" Zhou Yun asked.
Zhou Lan shook his head and said, "They’re both legitimate brands, just not widely known."
"How much is the endorsement fee?"
"Yiguang Beauty Device plans to sign you for a year with an endorsement fee of 3 million, and Xiao Mouth Snacks is for half a year with a fee of 1 million."
"Why is there such a big difference?"
"The nature of the beauty industry is different, and it’s inherently a very profitable sector," Zhou Lan explained. "They’re attracted by your face; they think you as their spokesperson would inspire trust."
Zhou Yun indeed had a beautiful face, not just her features, but her skin was a cold, fair tone, making her stand out strikingly in a crowd.
"I’ve seen in the news that beauty devices often have problems, and people often claim their rights," Zhou Yun said. "Is this Yiguang Beauty Device truly effective?"
Zhou Lan replied, "They’re a legitimate official brand, not some uncertified product."
"Let’s wait on the beauty device; we can take on the snacks for now."
"The company’s commercial department intends to accept both for you."
Zhou Yun expressionlessly looked at herself in the mirror, as well as Zhou Lan standing behind her.
"I said wait," Zhou Yun said sternly. "If in the future you accept work for me without my knowledge, I will not recognize it; you’ll have to deal with any trouble yourselves."
