For Cheng Zhu, the counselor was serious and ascetic, full of taboos.
The female painter was a Water Baby with exceptional talent and a unique physique.
As for the photographer Ye Zi, two words—perfect fit!
Her cooperation was the highest. She didn’t even need you to do anything.
She could take care of you all by herself.
Once Cheng Zhu opened up the "pattern," he naturally started to "build his career."
After lying back down on the big bed, Cheng Zhu looked down at her and asked, "Are you taking a high-speed train or a plane back home?"
"Did you buy the ticket?" Cheng Zhu asked.
"Yeah, the plane the day after tomorrow," Ye Zi said. "I want to go back early to see my grandma."
Now, there was still some time until New Year’s Eve. Ye Zi going back the day after tomorrow was indeed quite early.
"It’s to Guizhou Province, right?" Cheng Zhu asked.
"You should upgrade your ticket, and do the same when you return to Hang City. I’ll reimburse all the travel expenses," Cheng Zhu said.
"Thanks, boss," Ye Zi immediately responded with a sweet smile, her voice sticky and seemingly extremely happy, with no rejection at all.
She was indeed sensible, but she also understood that this was not the time to refuse. You have to get some benefits from a man to make him feel at ease.
If you appear to not want anything material, then what you’re really after is something he can’t give you.
By the time that became clear, she thought, the boss would definitely leave me without hesitation.
"Oh right, I forgot to mention that the year-end bonus for all Persistent Visit employees will be issued next Friday," Cheng Zhu said.
"Boss, do I get one too?"
"What are you talking about? You’re my right-hand person." Cheng Zhu laughed. "I wouldn’t leave anyone out but you."
"Then thank you, boss," Ye Zi said. "I made more this year than in previous ones. After I go back, I want to replace all the old home appliances for my grandma."
"Was it your grandma who raised you?" Cheng Zhu asked.
He actually didn’t know much about Ye Zi, not even her real name.
Ye Zi said her real name didn’t sound nice, so she never mentioned it.
Including the earlier somewhat teasing "My name is Ye Shu, comfortable as in ease," that surely wasn’t her real name.
Of course, the fact that she was comfortable was something Cheng Zhu had come to deeply realize.
Ye Zi nodded at this moment and said, "My dad passed away early, and after my mom remarried, she couldn’t wait to cut ties with me, so my grandma raised me."
Cheng Zhu nodded slightly and said, "I was raised by elders too when I was young."
He figured Ye Zi’s family background must not be very good, which is why she moved to a big city to work at such a young age.
Of course, this is also the reality for many young people today; only a few win the genetic lottery.
Compared to many people, Ye Zi was actually not too unfortunate. At least God had been kind to her in terms of looks and figure.
"By the way, there’s something I need to tell you," Cheng Zhu suddenly remembered some proper business.
"Yeah, go ahead, boss."
"After the New Year, we can change our QQ models more frequently," Cheng Zhu instructed.
"Do you have the contacts of those who’ve modeled QQ lingerie?" he asked.
"Yeah, I have them all," Ye Zi smiled and said, "They often contact me themselves, hoping to come to our store to shoot more photos."
She added, "Not only that, but some even take the initiative to ask me out for coffee or meals."
"Well, no wonder they know to please my store’s exclusive photographer," Cheng Zhu joked.
"That’s because I can bring them traffic," Ye Zi replied.
Cheng Zhu’s idea was simple. In 2015, he was definitely going to build his short video platform.
These women, who were both good-looking and open-minded, were perfect candidates for the platform.
Those who dared to shoot QQ lingerie could easily handle some edgy short videos.
Of course, edgy videos were just one part of the short video platform.
With this thought, the face of Zhang Qiqi floated into his mind.
This internet-famous school beauty could be considered for promotion in the early stages, making her a big internet celebrity wasn’t a difficult task.
As for Yiyi, he didn’t plan to push her toward becoming an internet celebrity; Cheng Zhu had other clever uses for her.
As the night deepened, Ye Zi, nestled in Cheng Zhu’s arms, unknowingly burrowed into the comforter.
Meanwhile, Cheng Zhu, feeling hungry, grabbed his phone to order takeout.
