CH 8.3

Song Zhe couldn’t stand his sister’s cute eyes, and immediately expressed his position; righteously saying, “Participating in the candidate selection would just dirty my hands.”

Beside him, Li Hua didn’t dare say anything. He was asked carefully, and even among the HY executives, there were disagreements on which Chinese actress to sign.

The conservative ones thought it was better to sign with Ye Zixuan due to her favorable impression with the boss.

Others insisted on signing with Lin Qinglu.

The higher ups who negotiated with Li Hua was Lin Pai, yelling, they said, “Lin Qinglu is here, do you dare to gloss over her for a second rate actress? Are you crazy?” 

Presently, Song Zhe had the final word.

Right now, Ye Zixuan’s relationship with Ji Jing  could possibly affect the endorsement deal.

Jian Yixin gave a small smile, as though she was relieved, “That’s good.”

“Gege is busy with business, and even now, he’s still thinking of business.” Jian Yixin picked a bowl of fruit for Song Zhe after the meal and handed it to him. With clear eyes and a sweet voice she said, “You’ve worked hard brother.”

“What are you being so polite with your brother for?” Song Zhe accepted the fruit, and smiled so hard, the corners of his mouth seemed to be fixed up high on his face. His sister was so good to him

Li Hua, who was beside him, shook her head in her heart. The President had signed hundreds of millions of projects indifferently, but in front of this young lady, he became a cheerful brother in seconds.

As Lin Qinglu opened the door and rejoined them, she saw Song Zhe smile at Song Pianzhen.

She squeezed the handle tightly and moved to sit with them.

“Ms. Lin” Jian Yixin called out when she saw Lin Qinglu back.

“Ms. Lin is back.” Song Zhe followed his sister and showed kindness towards his sister’s potential friend.

“It’s late. I heard Pianzhen say that you’re going back to the crew tonight, so there’s no need to worry. I already booked a room for you at the hotel. You can take a rest, and let them arrange a car to send you off in the morning.”

Lin Qinglu stood up straight and nodded. “Thank you, but there’s no need. The crew has a tight filming schedule.”

“It’s better to get up early. Right now, it’s pretty late.” Song Zhe smiled, “I would’ve asked Xiao Dong to take you back, but I’m going to M city tomorrow, and Xiao Dong is accompanying me there. Fortunately, the club doesn’t disclose info easily. Otherwise, I would’ve stayed for a while longer to avoid reporters.”

In all fairness, although Lin Qinglu couldn’t figure out why, she found Song Zhe to be an eyesore. But she couldn’t deny that Song Zhe was a cultured, charming person, with good knowledge and character. It wouldn’t be good to reject his courteous invitation anymore.

Of course, the main reason was because Song Zhe would be leaving tonight.

So, Lin Qinglu felt quite at ease.

Sure enough, hers and Song Zhe’s aura didn’t match up.

Although Lin Qinglu insisted on paying the bill for the three of them, the hotel had refused to accept at first, but accepted it in the end.

Liu Lele was very good at saving artist’s money. She looked at the shocking price and advised, “ Sister, you take a room for yourself. Book a standard one for me and Pianzhen.”

Lin Qinglu firmly refuted. “One person per room.”

Moved, Liu Lele praised, “ Sister, you’re so kind.”

Lin Qinglu casually responded, turned around, and gave Song Pianzhen a room card.

“Here, take it.”

“Thank you Ms. Lin.” Jian Yixin took it with a smile, but found that Lin Qinglu wasn’t letting go.”

She looked at her suspiciously.

The room card was black gold. Pianzhen put her long white fingers onto the room card, and the other end was in her hand.

Looking at this scene, Lin Qinglu didn’t know why, but her heart began to pulsate.

She regained her senses, and facing Song Pianzhen’s gaze, immediately released her room card as if she had been burned.

“What’s this?”
