Chapter 10: Little Wolf Dog: Can I Add You on WeChat?

Seeing the change in the other person’s expression, Chen Baiwei felt secretly delighted.

Fu Xia and she both belonged to Ju Hui Film and Television. Fu Xia originally pursued a career as a singer, but with the recent downturn in the music industry, she decided to try her hand at acting to make some money. In the same age group, there were limited film and television resources for female celebrities, and many of the scripts she was interested in were given to Fu Xia instead of her.

It was all because the other person had a father as a high-ranking executive.

“You really dare to brag,” Fu Xia gritted her teeth and said, “Why don’t you say you’re also President Jiang’s mistress!”

Chen Baiwei snorted lightly, smiled, and stopped talking.

She knew that the other person believed it to some extent. The news of Director Liu taking her to a dinner party, as the child of a high-ranking company executive, Fu Xia couldn’t possibly not have heard about it.

Who knows, maybe she was at home, grinding her teeth and cursing someone else, not herself.

Defeating a long-standing rival with ease in this hidden struggle made Chen Baiwei feel somewhat elated.

Since that night at Jinghe Restaurant, she had been unable to forget Jiang Qianchen, who sat at the head of the table.

The manager saw through her intentions and repeatedly warned her not to offend the big shot, otherwise, she would end up in an irreparable situation. However, Chen Baiwei felt that with her looks, President Jiang might not be interested in her personally, but he definitely wouldn’t refuse a spring fling.

Although…she was stopped by his bodyguard before she could touch the big shot’s clothes.

But the big shot wouldn’t proactively disclose such matters, so how would others know what’s true or false?

Chen Baiwei glanced meaningfully in Yu Zhi’s direction.

She didn’t dare to reveal too much information, but it wouldn’t hurt to spread some rumors through the gossip-loving crowd online.

The numbers in the elevator slowly changed, and the space returned to silence.

Chen Baiwei casually glanced to the side, observing the expression of the only bystander present.

She thought the person would quickly take out their phone to share the gossip or sneak a peek at her, but the person’s expression remained unchanged, as if bored. They nonchalantly took off the shiny diamond ring from their left hand and casually tossed it into the small bag they were carrying.

Chen Baiwei heard the sound of the sparkling diamond ring falling onto the leather and let out a pained sigh.

Truly heartless, just like a nouveau riche.

Perhaps her inner emotions were noticed by someone. After the elevator arrived, the noblewoman glanced at her lightly, closed her bag, and walked away.

[Host, are you okay?]

The system worriedly popped up: [The male lead definitely isn’t that kind of person. Maybe it’s just a misunderstanding?]

“Oh, I’m fine, thank you.”

“She got into Jiang Qianchen’s car, so it’s none of my business.”

Yu Zhi’s high heels made crisp sounds as she stepped on the red carpet. She replied to the system with noble elegance, tucking her hair behind her ear. The shiny tiles on both sides of the corridor reflected her exquisite figure.

At the entrance of the hall, the person in charge who had been attending to her quickly led her to the banquet hall. This gathering was supposedly a celebration for the promotion finals, but in reality, it was a business event to attract investment and also a way to thank the main sponsors. The boys who successfully entered the “Night Group” were all dressed in suits, moving between tables with their glasses in hand.

Yu Zhi took out her compact mirror and checked her makeup one last time, making sure there were no flaws before entering the venue. Compared to her invincible youth during the day, she dressed elegantly in a simple yet tasteful white dress for the evening. After all, today was not the time to make a forceful move.

However, this simple outfit attracted the attention of everyone in the room. When Yu Zhi stepped onto the carpet inside the banquet hall, the lively crowd from earlier fell silent for a few seconds, followed by a wave of discussions:

“Who is this female celebrity?”

“I don’t think I’ve ever seen this face before.”

The person in front of them was simply too dazzling. Her face seemed as if it had been carved by the heavens themselves, delicate and natural. But her posture was upright, and every movement exuded elegance and nobility, as if she were a noblewoman from some prestigious family.

Someone recognized Yu Zhi’s outfit and said, “Stop guessing. Look at her white dress, it’s the latest high-end collection from V brand. I haven’t heard of any celebrity who has had the privilege of borrowing from this collection.”

“It can only mean that she’s either wealthy or of extraordinary status.”

“And the gemstone on her necklace…” the person paused, “it’s an emerald, right?”

Yu Zhi was already accustomed to being the center of attention and didn’t pay any mind to the discussions behind her. Lin Ruixuan finally managed to free herself from her busy schedule and ended the meaningless socializing.

“Oh my goodness! Our Zhizhi has reached new heights of beauty today,” Lin Ruixuan said, holding her hand. “You have no idea how funny that scene just now was.”

“You mean that person, Chen Baiwei, who’s always marketing herself as a goddess-like beauty. She came in and immediately started showing off, afraid that no one would notice her, but everyone’s attention was stolen by you.”

Lin Ruixuan took pleasure in her misfortune. “Her embarrassed expression, tsk tsk. Who told her to always act high and mighty and pretend to be gentle and intellectual outside? She truly lives up to being an actress.”

Yu Zhi finally turned her gaze to Chen Baiwei and asked, “Oh, is she popular?”

Chen Baiwei had only appeared occasionally on the show and could be considered a complete background character. Yu Zhi usually only paid attention to her child’s^[1]her child is He Mengxin, because Yu Zhi is his Mother fans daily life and had no impression of this “mentor” who came to ride on her popularity.

She didn’t know where Chen Baiwei got the nerve to consider herself a senior.

“She’s just average, only liked by those straight guys,” Lin Ruixuan commented.

“Oh, by the way, Zhi, are you interested in variety shows? Our boss asked me to ask you,” Lin Ruixuan said. “The main content is to have idols and fans live together for five days. They will form a group and then film, and the fans selected are all amateurs.”

“If this news gets out, I bet all the girls will explode, right?”

In fact, the debut positions for “Perfect Heartthrob Idol” had already been decided earlier. Several highly popular members, backed by the company, were still competing for the top spot, leaving only a few spots for the trainees to compete for. Therefore, the subsequent group variety shows and schedules had already been roughly planned by the management.

Usually, when she received such invitations, Yu Zhi would directly refuse, but for some reason, this time she hesitated and said, “I’ll consider it.” She didn’t give a decisive rejection.

Lin Ruixuan introduced several trainees who had advanced to Yu Zhi. They were young and the boys didn’t know how to hide their emotions well. Their curiosity was clearly visible in their eyes.

“Sister Lin, is this your friend?” one of them asked, then politely greeted, “Hello, sister.”

“Sister, did you grow up drinking dewdrops? Why do you look like a fairy descended to earth?” another one said with admiration.

“In my world, there was no sun, but after meeting you, the starry river shines forever,” one of them recited a poem and said affectionately.

These boys, who usually appeared rebellious or shy on TV, were now enthusiastically flattering Yu Zhi. They were pouring out flattering words as if their lives depended on it, almost ready to serve her tea, pour water, and give her a shoulder massage.

Yu Zhi was slightly impatient with this group of people constantly flattering her. She maintained a smile on her face and replied with a unified “Thank you for the praise.” In the show, she played the role of an independent person or a rich second-generation, but in private, she encountered such clingy people, giving her a sense of shattered illusion.

She didn’t know what kind of person her Xiao He would be.

Yu Zhi took the lead in leaving the troublesome goblin cave. She hadn’t seen her child when she came in, and now, with this little incident, her interest in the whole banquet was diminished.

She asked a waiter for a glass of champagne and planned to just have a few bites of cake to consider the banquet attended. However, when she reached the table, Yu Zhi realized that she was still holding her bag in her other hand.

Well, she could just order some late-night snacks in her room.

Just as Yu Zhi was about to leave, a familiar and pleasant voice suddenly sounded behind her.

“Let me help you with that,” He Mengxin was standing right behind her, picking up the pastry she had wanted to eat earlier. “Is this it? Where would you like to sit and eat?”

Today, the young man had changed his hair color to a well-behaved pure black. He was wearing a suit, with his bangs swept back neatly, revealing a full forehead.

He was simply too handsome to handle.

Yu Zhi: Ahhhhh!!!!!!!!

Yu Zhi: No, this is too much!

Her mind was filled with the intermittent crowing of roosters, almost shattering her eardrums, but she still nodded gracefully and released her most perfect smile.

“Thank you.”

He Mengxin smiled, “You’re welcome, this is what every gentleman should do.”

No, Jiang Qianchen wouldn’t do that.

Yu Zhi couldn’t help but recall the first banquet she attended with him as his wife after they got married. The dress she wore was ethereal and beautiful. In order to maintain her composure, she barely drank any water that night, fearing that it would cause bloating and ruin the overall effect of her upper body. However, the men at the event seemed to be engrossed in their conversations, talking late into the night. She stayed by his side the whole night, almost fainting from low blood sugar. It was Secretary Xu who finally prepared a late-night snack to satisfy her hunger. Although Jiang Qianchen didn’t eat much that night either.

But in this relative comparison, Yu Zhi couldn’t help but feel emotional:

Both wearing suits, why is there such a huge difference between people?

Forget it, she didn’t want to think about that annoying scumbag man anymore. Yu Zhi hummed a song softly as He Mengxin invited her to sit at a small table in the corner and chat. This was as good as celebrating the Lunar New Year with her sisters!

Who cares about late-night car rides with female celebrities or love triangles? None of that matters! At this small table, she could see her beloved idol’s stunning beauty up close, as well as the young and tender Adam’s apple. His slightly hoarse yet unique voice echoed in her ears from every angle, making her feel so happy that she was about to faint.

Yu Zhi made an effort to maintain the elegance and composure of an aristocratic lady, pretending to be an ordinary passerby without any fan status. However, she unexpectedly found herself getting along quite well with her little idol.

No wonder she raised such a good child! It’s different from those fish that slipped through the net after nine years of compulsory education! He truly has substance!

So when He Mengxin suggested adding her on WeChat, Yu Zhi blinked her eyes and readily agreed.

She happily held her phone and looked at the freshly added friend account, planning to secretly browse through his moments later. At that moment, a message suddenly popped up.

Jiang: [I’ve arrived in Huacheng.]
