"I like you."
Pei Yaochi was stunned. "What?"
Shen Fanxing marched towards her, stunning Pei Yaochi with the strong presence she gave off.
Now that she got closer, she could see the determination shining in Shen Fanxing's eyes. She couldn't help but take two steps back.
Shen Fanxing halted in her footsteps. Under the dim light, her clear voice sounded—
"Would you like to be an artiste under me?"
"What?"
This time, she heard her clearly.
However, Pei Yaochi didn't understand what she meant.
Shen Fanxing only smiled lightly and handed a name card to Pei Yaochi.
She took it instinctively.
"If you're under my management, you won't be a third-rate celebrity."
Pei Yaochi tightened her grip on the name card. Under the dim light, the words on the card could be seen.
"I don't have the money to hire you."
Shen Fanxing's lips twitched and she said calmly, "No, I'm the one signing you."
Pei Yaochi's heart skipped a beat as though she had understood something. She stared at Shen Fanxing in disbelief.
"You…"
Shen Fanxing nodded lightly and said in an emotionless voice, "Come and find me when you've thought it through."
Pei Yaochi lowered her head to look at the name card in her hand again. When she looked up again, Shen Fanxing had already left. Not far away, a low-profile Bentley had stopped.
The window was opened and she could catch a glimpse of the man sitting in the driver's seat. Then, Shen Fanxing opened the door and sat on the passenger's seat, completely blocking the man.
After that, the window closed and the car drove away slowly. If she didn't hold Shen Fanxing's name card and stood alone, she would have thought that being left here by Gu Zeyan was a dream. So was Shen Fanxing's attempt to poach her.
…
In the car…
Bo Jinchuan asked, "You want to sign an artiste?"
"Yeah."
"When did you decide?"
"Today."
Bo Jinchuan went silent for two seconds before saying, "Isn't that too hasty?"
"It's fine."
Bo Jinchuan gave a low laugh and said, "As long as you're happy. If you need help, remember to ask me."
"Okay. Because of you as my powerful back, I can be so fearless."
Shen Fanxing's intentional flattery only earned a cold stare from Bo Jinchuan, who said, "Don't flatter me on purpose. When have you ever thought of me as your backer?"
"Those things are not worth your effort. It's a waste of your talent on such insignificant stuff."
He was speechless…
Bo Jinchuan didn't speak. He was contemplating a serious problem that needed to be solved.
If a woman were too independent, what should he do?
He tried to find a solution during the entire journey, but he failed to.
…
In the lobby, Shen Fanxing pressed the lift button. Just as the two of them walked in, someone shouted, "Please wait!" Shen Fanxing reached out to open the doors.
Not long after, a young woman in a simple and elegant attire ran into the lift with a lovely child in her arms.
"Which level are you on?" asked Shen Fanxing as she looked at the woman.
"Level 14, thank you."
"You're welcome," she said as she pressed the button for the 14th level.
"Wanwan, hurry and thank Aunt." The woman's sweet voice sounded as she spoke to the child in her embrace.
Shen Fanxing looked at her and saw the chubby child, whose huge eyes were blinking innocently.
