On Song Nanqiao’s side,
She had just arrived here and was looking at the splendid and grand buildings around her, sinking into a brief moment of reminiscence. When she had a thriving career, she used to frequent this place. She hadn’t expected that the interior decoration of this place would still be the same as it was several years ago.
Relying on her memory, Song Nanqiao didn’t bother asking the front desk. She smoothly found the designated room.
As soon as she opened the door, she saw Director Xu embracing a woman, leisurely sipping on a glass of wine. When he noticed Song Nanqiao’s arrival, he slowly set down the glass.
“Welcome, Miss Song. Please, have a seat,” Director Xu did not get up, only beckoning over a few women to attend to Song Nanqiao.
“Thank you.”
Although she didn’t particularly like the situation, Song Nanqiao composed herself and took a seat on the leather sofa without a change in expression.
“Get a couple of younger girls to accompany Miss Song,” Director Xu ordered after taking another sip of his drink, appearing slightly flushed, and showing signs of being somewhat tipsy.
“No need. Discussing the script is more important.”
“Hey, we can take our time with the script. If you decline the ladies here, it’s not giving me a face. If two aren’t acceptable, then just one,” Director Xu was unyielding, disregarding Song Nanqiao’s wishes, and arranged a girl for her.
Song Nanqiao: …
Right now, all she wanted was to quickly discuss matters and go home to sleep.
After a while, a somewhat clean and pretty girl entered from the doorway.
She wore a loose white shirt, and her soft bangs brushed against her forehead, giving her the appearance of a girl next door.
“Um…”
Song Nanqiao looked at her face and displayed an expression of disbelief.
This girl… she was the young artist she had helped in her previous life. Her impression of her was so deep that she hadn’t forgotten her to this day.
“Hello,” Song Nanqiao greeted her proactively.
“Hello…” The girl seemed a bit unsure, just sitting next to Song Nanqiao, fiddling with her fingers, not knowing what to do.
“Don’t be nervous, relax. Just sit there; you don’t have to do anything,” Song Nanqiao reassured her.
The little interaction between the two didn’t go unnoticed by Director Xu.
Director Xu secretly calculated in his heart. Although Song Nanqiao’s entertainment career was just starting, her other businesses were doing very well. If he could get Song Nanqiao drunk and use this opportunity to discuss some business and sign a contract to earn a profit, it would be worthwhile.
This was why he had chosen a nightclub as the location.
When the atmosphere quieted down a bit, Director Xu said something to the nearby manager. Afterward, a group of young and pretty girls entered from a side door.
These girls were all dressed in expensive clothing that seemed rented, and they all wore delicate makeup, looking well-prepared.
“Miss Song, among this group, do you see anyone suitable for the leading roles?” Director Xu glanced at them and then shifted his gaze to Song Nanqiao.
“The selection for the lead and second lead should be carefully considered. Let’s start with an audition instead,” Song Nanqiao gently suggested. She suddenly felt that she shouldn’t have come here.
“All right, Miss Song has a point. We’ll try it another day. What are you all standing around for? Hurry up and serve General Song some drinks,” Director Xu scolded the girls in front.
Seemingly out of fear, several newcomers quickly approached Song Nanqiao, pouring a precious wine into her glass.
“Miss Song…”
“Director Xu, I haven’t been feeling well recently. Drinking alcohol is not advisable,” Song Nanqiao hesitated for a moment but ultimately didn’t take the offered glass.
Drinking two glasses would have been fine, but her body hadn’t fully recovered yet. Drinking alcohol now would lead to trouble.
“I see… If Miss Song won’t drink, each of you will have to drink a bottle,” Director Xu pretended not to make things difficult for Song Nanqiao and had a crate of wine brought in.
These girls looked uncomfortable. They couldn’t handle alcohol with such a high alcohol content.
“If you don’t drink, then let the girl next to Miss Song do it.”
Director Xu’s gaze fell on the girl.
“I don’t drink…” The girl involuntarily blurted out, looking somewhat frightened.
Song Nanqiao: Fine, fine, fine… I’ll drink…
Song Nanqiao took the offered glass and glanced at the liquid, which shimmered with a yellowish hue as it swayed. She hesitated for just a second or two, then downed the entire glass.
The stimulating taste of alcohol filled her mouth, and Song Nanqiao suddenly felt her throat burning.
As expected, she had underestimated the alcohol content of this drink.
After just one glass, Song Nanqiao felt dizzy and lightheaded. Her heart was beating erratically…
“You’d better take Miss Song ‘rest’ downstairs,” Director Xu said with a smug expression.
“But…”
“Well?”
“Miss Song… please come with me.” The girl had to pick up Song Nanqiao and was planning to pretend to take her to the room assigned by Director Xu before finding an opportunity to send Song Nanqiao away.
Just as she helped Song Nanqiao up, ready to leave,
The door opened unexpectedly…
A woman was walking toward them, dressed in custom-made clothing from head to toe, and wearing limited edition luxury items, all of which displayed her extremely noble status.
Her indifferent and aloof temperament, coupled with her stunningly beautiful face, instantly captivated everyone in the room.
Director Xu, who was sitting on the sofa, couldn’t believe his eyes.
“Is this Wen Wenyao?”
“So gorgeous…”
The gazes of several newcomers were glued to Wen Wenyao. It was their first time seeing Wen Wenyao in person.
She’s really… incredibly beautiful…
Wen Wenyao didn’t even glance at them. She walked directly to Song Nanqiao and grabbed her from the girl’s hands.
“Hello, can you hand her over to me?”
