Chapter 612: The Best Choice

After the storm disrupted their plans, Murong Qiao and Shen Xi stayed in Yan Xm’s design studio to temporarily shelter from the rain.

In order to prevent her mother from worrying about her, Shen Xi even called home.

“I’ll be fine here. Qiaoqiao is with me…” Shen Xi reported the situation to Su Rong honestly.

She had been in poor health since she was young. Whenever something unexpected happened or she fell sick from the rain, Su Rong would be especially nervous. Therefore, Shen Xi always patiently said a few more words to Su Rong.

Su Rong seemed to be busy. “I’ll definitely be at ease if you’re with Murong Qiao.”

“But it’s raining so heavily, 1 can’t find time to pick you up now… Xiao Xi, take care of yourself…”

The rest of the sentence was a little intermittent, but Shen Xi still replied very patiently. It was not until Su Rong had no choice but to hang up that Shen Xi heard the call end and put away her phone.

“If you have nothing else to do, come with me to measure your size again. I plan to change the style of the clothes I made recently.” Yan Xiu looked at Murong Qiao.

The style and design of the clothes were different, and the sizes needed to be made were also different, especially since it had been a long time since he measured his Little Sister’s size. Yan Xiu had always wanted to get someone to bring her over and update the data.

It was a pity that he had been busy previously and had not found an opportunity. Today, he was fated to have her come knocking on his door. At the mention of the new size, Murong Qiao touched her stomach guiltily. Girls were a little sensitive to weight, and so was Murong Qiao. Moreover, when she thought about how she had been out with Shen Xi and Ruan Ying often recently, including when she was rushing to work, she also ate takeout… Murong Qiao finally stood up. “Coming.”

Shen Xi also wanted to follow them, but because she was not familiar with Yan Xiu at all, she suppressed her urge and sat there obediently.

However, looking at the stormy weather outside that didn’t show any signs of relenting, even after changing into a new set of clothes, Shen Xi still felt a little cold.

After a long sunny period, this storm took up two days of the weather forecast. Many things were affected, and even the number of cars on the road decreased by nearly a third. Many taxis could only be seen speeding on the streets to earn money.

It was dark outside, but it didn’t affect the social animals in the company who had the air conditioner on.

“It’s raining. I feel that the moisture in my entire body is so heavy.” The colleague clicked her tongue. She was still holding a cup of hot coffee in her hand and would take a sip from time to time as she spoke.

The girl on the other side was in a good state. “Your body isn’t good. Why don’t I give you the formula my mother made for me? I think it’s quite good for dehumidifying.”

“That good? I’ll give it a try.” The colleague forced herself to perk up.

While the two of them were talking, Zheng Yue rushed in from outside and sat at her desk. She looked quite energetic.

When the two of them saw Zheng Yue coming over, they tacitly shut their mouths and didn’t speak.

As for Zheng Yue, everyone treated her as an invisible person. No one liked to talk to her. If it weren’t for Luo Wanbai urging Zheng Yue to go to work on time, everyone would usually only see her in the afternoon.

Zheng Yue didn’t care about their cold att.i.tude towards her. She sat at her desk and pretended to turn on her computer. She casually browsed a few web pages. To put it bluntly, she was here to fool Luo Wanbai. Zheng Yue didn’t care about the others.

Seeing that Luo Wanbai didn’t come out to inspect the work even after she had sat down for 20 minutes, Zheng Yue stood up and left.

For the past few days, she had run out of money to spend. She had to hurry to the artistes’ side to see if she could secretly capture any shocking news.

“…Tsk, that’s it. I really don’t understand why she’s here,” the colleague said after Zheng Yue left.

The girl didn’t reply, but gave her colleague a look to remind her.

The next second, Luo Wanbai’s dissatisfied voice sounded from behind them.

“Where’S Zheng Yue?” Luo Wanbai looked at Zheng Yue’s empty desk with a dissatisfied expression.

The girls remained silent. They had no intention of defending Zheng Yue. In the beginning, when Zheng Yue was slacking off, they would still help cover for her, but now that she was like this, they couldn’t be bothered. They even wished that Zheng Yue could be fired quickly.

Luo Wanbai frowned. “You don’t know where she went?”

“I don’t know.” The girl shook her head honestly.

The other colleague added, “She just came for a while and left. We don’t know where she went.”

“This Zheng Yue…” Luo Wanbai’s already bad mood became even more irritable. Perhaps she should find a time to tell Murong Qiao more about this person. At the thought of Zheng Yue staying in the Human Resources Department and slacking off right under her nose, Luo Wanbai felt uncomfortable all over. Moreover, Luo Wanbai didn’t need to guess Zheng Yue’s whereabouts in the company. She was most likely running to the artistes.

In fact, Luo Wanbai was not wrong at all. Zheng Yue could be said to know the way to the artistes’ area by heart. She didn’t even need to look at the directions on the wall to reach her destination.

She placed a miniature camera on her collar and set up a voice recorder in her pocket. After confirming that there was no mistake, she walked in.

Due to the rainy weather, Zheng Yue didn’t go out with Xu Le for the past few days.

The last time they met was with Xu Le and his friends.

It was impossible for Zheng Yue not to be anxious when she thought about how she had not made any progress in a long time. It was not easy for her to get to know someone as innocent and easy to deal with as Xu Le. She definitely didn’t want to let go.

Thinking of the rich second-generation heirs who had thrown her away after playing with her, Zheng Yue became even more determined to find a good backer.

Xu Le was the best choice.

The artistes had a lot of work today, so Zheng Yue came at the right time. Taking advantage of the dimness of the studio, she sneaked in through the door. Seeing that no one had discovered her, she found a corner and started to secretly take photos.

At this moment, a couple of male and female artistes were cooperating with each other to take photos of the endors.e.m.e.nt cover. From time to time, they accompanied the photographer’s request and did all kinds of actions.

Zheng Yue found an ambiguous angle and pressed the remote control b.u.t.ton of the cufflink in her hand, secretly taking photos.

“Get a little closer. You have to act like you’re in love, understand? Be as close as possible!” The photographer’s words were exactly what Zheng Yue wanted.

“I’m not asking you to really kiss each other! Move aside! Just move aside! The man puts his hand on the woman’s shoulder and half hugs her—”

Zheng Yue didn’t know what the endors.e.m.e.nt cover was like.

However, she was certain that she could definitely earn more than a hundred thousand yuan this time, or even more.

Thinking of Xu Le’s usual expenses and the necklace, Zheng Yue was even more determined to seduce Xu Le.

As long as she married Xu Le…

At the thought of her glorious life in the future, Zheng Yue’s lips curled up unconsciously.

Before the endors.e.m.e.nt was ready to be released, Zheng Yue slipped out of the studio after filming. She immediately took out her phone and contacted a few paparazzi she knew, waiting for them to give her a price.

She had not received a reply, but looking at the messages she had sent, Zheng Yue seemed to have heard the happy sound of money entering her account..
