He Xiang came over to help Lin Shanchu choose clothes and asked curiously, “Who are you going out to meet?”
“Ming Yao.”
“Huh?”
When Lin Shanchu met Ming Yao previously, He Xiang was not there, so she did not know who Ming Yao was.
“The editor-in-chief of MMLY Magazine.”
“So it’s her. I was wondering why this name sounded so familiar… You are going to meet a woman?”
He Xiang finally realized that Lin Shanchu was going to meet a woman in such a grand manner.
“She’s so beautiful, so I have to dress up beautifully too.” Lin Shanchu started to take out the clothes from the wardrobe again.
He Xiang said, “You’re beautiful even without dressing up…”
He Xiang, as a responsible and caring assistant, had long infiltrated Lin Shanchu’s fan club.
At least half of Lin Shanchu’s fans supported her because of her good look.
Lin Shanchu finally chose a piece of clothing that she was satisfied with.
She picked up her clothes, turned around and patted He Xiang’s head. “What do you call this behavior on the Internet?”
He Xiang was puzzled.
“Oh, I remember now. It’s called flatter someone blindly.”
He Xiang was speechless.
Lin Shanchu went to change her clothes while He Xiang defended herself at the door, “I didn’t flatter you blindly, Sister Lin. You are beautiful to begin with.”
After Lin Shanchu changed her clothes, she put on exquisite makeup and wore accessories particularly.
Right after she finished packing her stuff, Qi Cheng, who had gone out to handle some matters, returned.
“Are you going to participate in some event?” Qi Cheng thought for a long time but could not think of any activities that Lin Shanchu had to attend today.
He Xiang held back her laughter and said, “Sister Lin is going to meet the editor-in-chief of MMLY.”
“Meet the editor-in-chief? Oh, but this is too…” Qi Cheng looked at Lin Shanchu, who was dressed up meticulously, with a look of disbelief.
Lin Shanchu usually only applied a simple foundation, drew her eyebrows, and put on lipstick when she went out for work. This kind of makeup would only appear on her face when she was going to attend dinner parties or events.
“I’m going to meet Miss Ming at Boya Hotel. I’ll be back after the meeting.” Lin Shanchu took the initiative to report her schedule to Qi Cheng.
Qi Cheng was not used to Lin Shanchu being so sensible.
Was she trying to go out and cause trouble again?
Qi Cheng pondered for a long time before picking up the car keys that he had just put down.
“I’ll drive you there.”
Lin Shanchu shrugged her shoulders with an indifferent expression.
“Thank you, Brother Qi.”
When Qi Cheng drove Lin Shanchu to Boya Hotel, Ming Yao happened to come over.
Ming Yao’s dressing was not as simple as Lin Shanchu’s.
After Lin Shanchu and Ming Yao entered the restaurant, Qi Cheng and He Xiang looked at each other in tacit understanding.
“Why are the two women dressed like they’re attending a banquet?”
He Xiang thought for a moment and replied, “Perhaps… this a woman’s desire to win?”
Qi Cheng was puzzled.
He did not understand it.
The moment Lin Shanchu and Ming Yao entered the restaurant, they attracted a lot of attention.
The eldest daughter of the Ming family and Huo Xunzhou’s girlfriend.
The two women had unusual identities and outstanding looks and auras. It was difficult for them not to attract the people’s attention.
Ming Yao did not seem to notice the people sizing her up. She sat down gracefully and ordered food calmly.
After handing the menu to Lin Shanchu, Ming Yao said slowly, “1 waited for a long time but you didn’t ask me out, so I had to take the initiative to ask you out.”
Lin Shanchu ordered a cup of coffee and put down the menu. She said understandingly, “There are only a few days left until the deadline for the next issue of MMLY. Miss Ming, I guessed you must be very busy, so I didn’t disturb you.”
Ming Yao leaned back and adjusted herself into a relaxed position. “I see.”
“Miss Ming, since you’re here for coffee today, you must have already decided on the issue,” Lin Shanchu said with a smile.
Ming Yao smiled eloquently. “Do you think your guess is accurate?”
“I hope my guess is inaccurate.” Lin Shanchu straightened her back and sat upright, looking obedient.
However, the faint smile in her eyes did not match her obedience at all.
Ming Yao did not say anything. She just tilted her head slightly and looked at Lin Shanchu as if she was examining her.
Lin Shanchu leaned forward slightly and said, “It’s because I want to be on the cover of the next issue of MMLY.”
Ming Yao’s expression remained unchanged as she asked, “On what grounds?”
“I have good looks, figure and popularity,” Lin Shanchu said arrogantly.
Ming Yao had a high status in the fashion industry.
Many A-listers had to lower their stance in front of her.
Lin Shanchu was not modest at all.
Ming Yao slowly sat up straight and said casually, “But I don’t care about these.”
Lin Shanchu’s face revealed a disappointed expression as she said, “Then there’s no other way.”
Ming Yao could not understand Lin Shanchu.
She had just arrogantly claimed that she had good looks and a hot figure, but she did not even defend herself after being rejected.
The waiter came over to serve coffee.
The conversation between the two of them was temporarily interrupted. After the waiter left, Ming Yao stirred her coffee and said, “Give up.”
Lin Shanchu shook her head. “Miss Ming, since you don’t like my strength, then I can only rely on nepotism.”
“What?” Ming Yao put down the coffee spoon and took a sip of coffee.
Lin Shanchu frowned slightly and widened her pure eyes as she said pitifully, “Sister-in-law, please help me.”
Her words were so shocking that Ming Yao lost her composure on the spot.
“Cough! Cough, cough!”
Lin Shanchu thoughtfully handed her a tissue.
After Ming Yao recovered, she asked Lin Shanchu in shock, “What did you just call me?”
“Sister-in-law!” Lin Shanchu called out obediently.
“You…” Ming Yao was taken aback and said, “Don’t simply scream.”
“When you and Big Brother were kissing in the corridor that day, your lipstick was gone…” Lin Shanchu looked at Ming Yao innocently. Ming Yao was speechless.
Why was a good female celebrity acting like a scoundrel?
Lin Shanchu shook her head and smiled innocently. “No, I just want to snatch the cover of Cheng Fanjing.”
How could she act so righteously while she tried to snatch someone else’s things?
“Lin Shanchu, how can you be such a person?” Ming Yao laughed in anger.
“I’ve always been this kind of person.” Lin Shanchu cupped her face with both hands. Her smiling face was exceptionally obedient, easily making people let down their guard.
Ming Yao curled her lip ambiguously and said, “Huo Xunzhou has a unique
taste.”
Lin Shanchu replied, “Thank you for the compliment.”
Ming Yao was speechless. Did she compliment Lin Shanchu?
Lin Shanchu pointed at her bag and urged her, “Sister-in-law, hurry up and take out the contract.”
The smile on Ming Yao’s face instantly disappeared. “How did you know I brought the contract?”
“If you didn’t want me to shoot the cover of the next issue of MMLY, you wouldn’t have agreed to add me on WeChat before.” Lin Shanchu was satisfied to see the surprised expression on Ming Yao’s face.
Lin Shanchu continued, “But you insisted on teasing me just now. You’re my sister-in-law after all, so I could only play along with you.” Her tone was so helpless that it sounded like Ming Yao was being unreasonable.
Ming Yao was speechless..
