The stylist saw Wang Siyu’s expression in the mirror and turned to look at her. “Substance and ability are important in this field, but a good attitude is just as important. Otherwise, you won’t be able to go far.”
Wang Siyu glanced at her.
Hmph, Chi Beinian has a good attitude?
It’s all an act!
If she could be complimented by the photographer in front of everyone, she definitely was able to feign this too!
Sooner or later, she had to surpass her!
–
When Li Beinian left the scene, it was already past noon.
Her stomach was growling and she was just about to flag a cab down when she saw a military-green Hummer approaching.
On the Hummer were mounted lights, while green prints covered the car body.
It was a military vehicle.
Li Beinian took a look at it and went on to flag down a cab anyway.
Who would’ve known that the Hummer would stop right in front of her?
Li Beinian was shocked. The car window was then rolled down.
“Hello, such a coincidence?”
The voice was bright and cheery, who else could it be if not Gu Mingye?
The window to the backseat was rolled down as well. In the dim light of the car, Li Beinian could make out the handsome face.
As that person turned around, those eyes seemed to hold a million stars.
Li Beinian’s consciousness swayed at that moment.
“Get on.” Those two words were simply stated but also filled with authority.
Li Beinian intuitively responded, “No thanks… I’ll get a cab.”
“You still owe me an apology, and I haven’t had lunch yet anyway.” Mu Xichen looked at her and slowly said, “Do you want to repay me now, or would you rather I look you up at your house?”
“Huh…” Li Beinian was caught off-guard. “How could you!”
“Let’s settle it now, then.” Mu Xichen repeated, “Get on.”
Li Beinian bit her lip and reluctantly opened the car door. She got on. “What do you want to eat?”
Gu Mingye gleefully said from the driver’s seat, “Our Boss isn’t a picky eater.”
“Let’s have sour spicy noodles, it’s economic.”
Gu Mingye: “… He’s not that casual about his food options.”
Mu Xichen glanced at her. “We’ll go to Mei Shan Zhai Restaurant.”
“What, you!” Li Beinian fumed. “That’s expensive!”
It was one of the most high-end restaurants in the city, how was she to afford it!
Mu Xichen side-eyed her. “You caused me so much hurt, and you aren’t even sincere about the apology?”
Li Beinian went grumpy. “Pfft, sincerity shouldn’t be forced upon people this way. You should let me express my sincerity on my own, that’d show you magnanimity!”
“Oh?” Mu Xichen seemed excited. “Then give it a shot.”
Li Beinian pressed her hands together in a praying pose and faced him. “I’m sorry.”
Gu Mingye looked at them through the rearview mirror, but in his moment of distraction, someone dashed across before him.
He stepped hard on the brake.
The car jerked strongly and, having lost her balance, Li Beinian flew forward.
Her face was smashed against a warm body.
It smelt like male hormones…
Boom.
She felt as if something hard had just struck her on the head.
Before she snapped back to her senses, she pulled her collars up and heard a mumble, “You pervert.”
