Beauty and the Beasts - Chapter 1436
Chapter 1436: First Signs of the Guy In the Photo
The man in a suit raised his brows and took the photo from him.
He had also seen that Weibo post and could tell if it was a farce.
He didn’t expect the photos to really be those that hadn’t circulated on the Internet. It was the same background as the one taken from when the guy was eating canned dog food, but from different angles. The photos weren’t as clear as the ones taken on Weibo and should have been the ones that were left after the ones that had been posted had been picked.
The man in the suit suddenly stopped and sized up Wang Xiaolei.
“So you were the one who took the photos?”
This guy was too ugly. No matter how good his photo editing skill was, he couldn’t beautify himself to look like the guy in the photo. This was the only possible explanation.
Wang Xiaolei was stunned, then smiled sheepishly, saying, “Mr. Xu, you’re really smart, being able to guess it right off the bat. My girlfriend was the one who took the photo, not expecting it to become such a hit. I took the chance to raise my fame.”
“So you know the place where that guy had passed by?” The eyes of the man in the suit seemed to gleam a little as he asked Wang Xiaolei, looking him right in the eyes.
Elated, Wang Xiaolei said, “Of course.”
“Bring me there right now,” the man in the suit said with an anxious but solemn tone.
However, Wang Xiaolei revealed his true sloppy form, saying, “I can do that, but you can’t make me make a wasted trip.”
The man in the suit said impatiently, “What do you want? Money? If you want that, you’ll have to guarantee that I can find the guy.”
“No, no, no. You just need to sign a contract with me and arrange for me to play the main character of a movie or something, and I’ll bring you there right away.”
The man in the suit let out a cold laugh and turned his head away. “Lead the way.”
Elated, Wang Xiaolei quickly followed next to the man in the suit.
In the car, Wang Xiaolei kept on touching the interior, making Xu Qiyang feel even more repulsed by him. He stepped on the accelerator and drove even faster.
He drove to the place the photo was taken, to the trash bin. Wang Xiaolei pointed out of the window and said, “It was taken here. Take a look.”
Xu Qiyang took a look and then asked, “You can’t possibly just be telling me this little bit of information, right?”
Wang Xiaolei started to panic. He thought to himself that as long as he could appease this guy and get a job, it shouldn’t be a problem even if he were to say anything he wanted to.
Therefore, Wang Xiaolei pointed to the entrance to a district in front, saying, “My girlfriend saw him entering this district, but she couldn’t enter. We don’t know anything else. If you wait here, you’ll definitely be able to see him.”
Xu Qiyang drove the car near to the district, mumbling, “The people who stay here aren’t ordinary.”
He didn’t doubt what Wang Xiaolei said. Because that young man’s disposition didn’t look normal. Moreover, the photo was taken right outside the walls of the Splendid Villa.
“Alright, you can get out of the car now,” Xu Qiyang said.
Wang Xiaolei immediately said, “Then, the contract…”
“As long as I find that guy, I’ll sign a contract with you no matter if he agrees to sign up with me or not.” Xu Qiyang took out a name card impatiently. “My phone number is on this card. You can give me a call.”
“Alright, I’ll be getting off then.” Wang Xiaolei took the name card as a hint of indignation flashed in his eyes the instant he lowered them.
After getting out of the car, Wang Xiaolei quickly called his girlfriend. After finding out that the guy in the photo had really entered this place, he then felt elated and walked off, humming.
…
“Hello, dad? I won’t be coming back this weekend. I’ll be staying at my classmate’s place and go look for a part-time job tomorrow,” Bai Qingqing said guiltily on the phone.
Moreover, her four mates were by her side, watching as she lied through her teeth. This made her feel even more guilty.
As she had already spoken to her parents previously, Daddy Bai said a few words to her, telling her to be careful, then agreed.
