On the eighth floor of the hospital ward, Zhong Yuheng walked into the room with a hot water bottle. Seeing Geng Yue awake, she hurried over, “Geng Yue, are you okay? You scared everyone just now.”
After fainting, Geng Yue’s body was burning up. After being brought to the hospital and the fever subsided, his condition improved.
Geng Yue’s throat felt like it was on fire, and his lips were dry. He reached for a cup, and Zhong Yuheng quickly poured water for him.
Geng Yue drank three cups of water in a row before finally looking at Zhong Yuheng and asking, “What time is it now?”
Every time Zhong Yuheng interacted with Geng Yue, she felt inexplicably uneasy. She thought he was too arrogant, not her type at all. However, his good looks were irresistible, she can’t help but be enchanted.
Glancing at her phone, she replied, “It’s 4:30 in the afternoon. You just recovered from the fever, so you probably won’t be able to participate in the activity. But Brother Qiang and the others are there, so don’t worry.”
“I fainted. Does everyone know?” Geng Yue suddenly asked.
“Of course, you were on stage at that time, with so many cameras pointing at you. It’s even trending now; your fans are really worried about your health…”
“Show me.” Geng Yue reached out for the phone.
Zhong Yuheng searched for a moment and handed him his phone.
His private number was not easily given out, and now there were only missed calls from roommates on his phone.
He opened a specific contact, and his gaze dimmed a bit.
Zhong Yuheng suddenly glanced at her phone and said, “Geng Yue, I’ll be right back. I have a friend coming over.”
Geng Yue instinctively looked up and asked, “What friend?”
“My yoga teacher from the studio.”
“Yoga teacher?” Geng Yue’s first thought was of Wan Tong, who also worked part-time at a yoga studio.
“Yeah, she’s a beautiful lady. I should tell Brother Qiang about it; maybe Tongtong can debut…”
Zhong Yuheng got lost in her own thoughts, muttering to herself as she walked out.
As soon as Geng Yue heard that familiar name, he jumped off the bed, supporting his weak body to stand up.
Wan Tong had an excuse to come to the hospital to get medicine for a friend, and Zhong Yuheng said she could come out to meet her.
Wan Tong couldn’t refuse, so she quickly got a regular prescription and waited for Zhong Yuheng.
After meeting, Wan Tong casually asked about the ‘friend’s’ condition.
“He’s fine now, the fever has subsided. He should be discharged tonight,” Zhong Yuheng said.
“That’s good. The weather is getting cold, and many people are catching colds and fevers. We really need to be careful.”
After saying that, Wan Tong made an excuse to leave. Originally, she wanted to sneak a peek at the boss, but now it seemed unnecessary. Knowing that he was okay was enough.
Just as she was about to leave, she saw a familiar figure.
Geng Yue!
How did he come out?
Geng Yue didn’t approach the two women; he just stood not far away, watching Wan Tong.
“Huh, how did he come out? Seriously, he didn’t even wear a mask…” Zhong Yuheng didn’t notice anything unusual and ran towards Geng Yue.
Wan Tong also quickly headed towards the hospital exit, as if there was a monster chasing her from behind.
“Geng Yue, hurry back to the room. It’s crowded and chaotic here. If reporters start chasing after you later, you’ll regret it,” Zhong Yuheng reminded Geng Yue, but she didn’t dare to reach out to help him.
She knew about his eccentricities, his dislike for social interactions.
“Why did she come over?” Geng Yue suddenly asked.
“Who?” Zhong Yuheng was puzzled.
Geng Yue’s gaze was fixed in the direction of the door.
Zhong Yuheng glanced over and realized, “It’s my yoga teacher. She’s even younger than me, a junior in college. She’s interning at a company during the day and teaches yoga at night. I was thinking of recommending her to Brother Qiang. I’m sure she’ll be a hit.”
As Zhong Yuheng spoke, she suddenly felt that Geng Yue’s expression seemed too focused.
“What’s the matter, do you like her?” she asked suspiciously.
Geng Yue glanced at her, turned and walked into the hospital room. “Call Brother Qiang. I’ll go to the scene now.”
“Ah? Oh…”
Zhong Yuheng responded dumbly.
Wan Tong returned to the company with medicine and heard about Hu Yanting’s car accident on the way to a meeting.
The power of cookies is indeed immense.
Hu Yanting suffered minor injuries, but the delay in the meeting angered the foreign partners. The plan was about to fall through, and the loss for the parent company was a few hundred millions.
Hu Yanting was not in a light mood, neglecting the affairs of Starry Entertainment for several days. Naturally, he had no time to trouble Geng Yue.
When Hu Yanting returned to the company, Wan Tong noticed he had a nasal tone, possibly catching a cold. So, she gave him the medicine she bought at the hospital a few days ago.
Hu Yanting, exhausted from the past few days and now falling ill, was taken aback when he saw Wan Tong with medicine and warm water.
“Put it down,” he said and gestured for her to leave.
Wan Tong considerately closed the door and sighed. Every day, she seemed to be causing trouble for her employer. The feeling was too complicated.
However, it shouldn’t be a matter of life and death, right?
Not long after, Zhang Liaoran asked Wan Tong to go see him, saying that there was a new task from Hu Yanting.
Wan Tong went to the talent management department, and Zhang Liaoran was talking to a young and beautiful woman. When she saw Wan Tong, she took off her sunglasses in surprise and sat down with a displeased expression. “Brother Zhang, are you playing with me? You want her to be my agent?”
Wan Tong was also confused, “Department Head, what’s going on?”
She hasn’t signed any newcomers in the past three days. According to reason, shouldn’t she just be a good assistant?
Zhang Liao pulled Wan Tong aside and whispered, “Just now, President Hu called me and said to let you be Lin Ruoruo’s agent.”
Lin Ruoruo is said to be the campus belle of a certain university, and gained popularity on the internet with a few sets of photos. Now, looking at her, she does seem to be a beauty, her face natural without traces of surgery. However, her arrogant demeanor makes her seem difficult to get along with.
Seeing her in branded clothes, and considering Zhang Liao’s attitude towards her, maybe her family is wealthy?
“But I have no experience at all…”
“That’s why I’m here to guide you. Don’t worry, and President Hu already made plans for you…”
While the two were talking, Lin Ruoruo glared at them discontentedly. “Are you done talking?”
Zhang Liao immediately walked over. “Ruoruo, I promised you’d become popular, and I won’t break my promise. Although Xiao Jin is a newcomer, pairing her with you for some publicity, what do you think the effect will be?”
Lin Ruoruo’s gaze turned to Wan Tong, sizing her up for a while before suddenly asking, “Are you trying to promote her? Am I just a stepping stone?”
Both Wan Tong and Lin Ruoruo are beautiful, but their styles are completely different.
Lin Ruoruo has black hair with big waves, full lips painted with bright red lipstick, and she has a retro style. On the other hand, Wan Tong has light makeup, like a fresh and delicate beauty, presenting a completely different style.
If Wan Tong becomes Lin Ruoruo’s agent, coupled with a few endorsements, whether as an agent or an artist, she will undoubtedly attract attention.
“Just marketing strategy,” Zhang Liao said without reservation.
In the end, Lin Ruoruo nodded. A combination of a pure and beautiful female agent with a sexy and charming female artist is quite fresh. Later, she will choose two good-looking bodyguards and assistants from her family. Then, wherever she goes, she will be the most beautiful scenery in the crowd!
Seeing Lin Ruoruo’s agreement, Zhang Liao smiled satisfactorily and took out the contract.
They didn’t ask for Wan Tong’s opinion from the beginning. Wan Tong sighed, “Department Head, but I’m afraid I’ll drag you down. Can I talk to President Hu first…”
She just wants to trouble Hu Yanting now.
Zhang Liao waved his hand. “No need, this is the President Hu’s decision.”
Lin Ruoruo also glanced at her arrogantly. “It’s you.”
Wan Tong : “…” Don’t blame her then.
Zhang Liao was preparing for Lin Ruoruo’s debut, but it was not going smoothly. The company had secured a good opportunity for her, the leading role in an art film, but the director seemed to hesitate at the last moment.
In a critical situation, Wan Tong was assigned to talk to the director.
In a hotel room, Wan Tong brought Lin Ruoruo in and met with the director and producer.
When the director saw this combination, he was indeed a bit surprised, but he seemed to have made a decision already and didn’t change his mind.
In the end, Wan Tong had to leave with Lin Ruoruo first.
“D*mn, where did that little ** find someone better than me1? Is the director blind?” Lin Ruoruo swung her handbag and angrily headed to the bathroom.
Wan Tong shook her head, leaning against the corridor, waiting for others.
She thought she could succeed this time. After all, although she tended to bring trouble to those close to her, she had always been very lucky herself.
Upon hearing footsteps, she thought it was Lin Ruoruo returning. However, when she turned her head, she saw several handsome faces.
It was the boyband Stone…
Leading them was Geng Yue, but why were they here?
Geng Yue paused, his gaze sweeping over Wan Tong, slowly walking past her.
The four people behind him had been with Geng Yue for a long time, and they noticed his unusual behavior. So, when passing by Wan Tong, they couldn’t help but look at her face.
Oh… she’s the type Geng Yue likes.
And she could remain so calm upon seeing them?
Wan Tong held her breath, watching the five tall boys leave, and then slowly exhaled.
The five boys entered a private room, and then Geng Yue was surrounded by the other four in a somewhat unfriendly manner.
“Speak up, do you know her?” the short-haired, sunny boy raised his eyebrows and asked.
“The girl Geng Yue said he liked before?” another more mature and stable-looking boy asked.
“The one who rejected him in the end?” someone added.
The atmosphere within the group had always been good. Having known each other for so many years, they almost talked about everything.
Geng Yue swept them with an expressionless look. “Curious?”
“Yes!”
“Then go ask her.” Geng Yue threw a sentence at them, pushed them aside, and sat down at the round table.
The four people in place looked at each other. Geng Yue’s reaction…
He likes that girl, no doubt!
The short-haired boy opened the door to leave but was stopped by Geng Yue. “Where are you going?”
The short-haired boy combed his hair and left behind a charming figure. “To pursue her!”
“Jiang Yu, you get back here!” Geng Yue blurted out between his teeth, but Jiang Yu had already slammed the door shut!
