It was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry from those words, but Bai Mang's cheeks visibly flushed red.

“He saw Wanzhou at a dinner party. The young man was good-looking, but there are no good people at a dinner party. They all bullied him because he had no background. You know Feng Nai’s personality; he couldn’t stand it.”

Qi Jiu nodded, "That's true."

Although he was also a capitalist, Feng Nai always felt that he was still quite far from being mature compared to them, and he was always prone to acting impulsively.

And she's very kind. Much kinder than her; she wouldn't help people indiscriminately.

"so?"

"So, the entertainment company that Wanzhou left has now been taken over by Feng Nai, who also paid her breach of contract penalty. She is now an artist under Qingmai Entertainment."

For Feng Nai, this breach of contract was actually a minor matter, but after signing Wan Zhou, they couldn't continue to operate at a loss.

This is pointless.

Qi Jiu pursed her lips, "That's true."

"However, even if Feng Nai is your boyfriend, I won't just make a move on him casually. I'll put him to the test. If he doesn't have real skills, praising Wan Zhou like a fairy won't help."

Wanzhou: "..."

What's the possibility that he's human?

"Understood." Bai Mang nodded vigorously.

That day, Xinglan.

When Qi Jiu arrived, everyone who was supposed to be in the room had already arrived.

Wan Zhou still had blond hair, looking unruly, but the expression on his face was obedient. He had very good features, a straight nose, long eyelashes, and a pair of dark, innocent-looking eyes.

There was an empty seat between him and Bai Mang, and it was obvious who it was reserved for.

When Bai Mang saw Qi Jiu, he grinned widely, revealing a row of big white teeth, and waved his hand vigorously at her.

"Here! Here! Right here~"

At the same time, Wan Zhou, who heard the sound, also raised her head and was stunned when she saw Qi Jiu.

This person was both familiar and unfamiliar to him.

The familiarity might be because he had seen it online every day before, while the unfamiliarity might be because this was the first time he had seen it in person.

"Miss Qi?"

Is Bai Mang introducing him to connections?

The girl looked at him, nodded politely, and sat down between the two of them.

There were only three people in the room, but each of them was in a different mood.

Wan Zhou was tense, seemingly both nervous and confused. He didn't understand why Miss Shen was here. However, given her status, he dared not let his guard down.

Compared to Bai Mang, although she was somewhat nervous, she was also excited. In her eyes, Qi Jiu's willingness to grant her this favor meant that the matter was already half accomplished.

Hehehe, soon she'll have a rising star in the entertainment industry under her wing!

Looking at Qi Jiu, she seemed carefree and relaxed, as if she hadn't taken the matter to heart at all.

Have you ordered yet?

"Oh? Not yet, we're waiting for you."

Bai Mang smiled obsequiously, now always deferring to her in everything. Having spent so much time with the girl, she had long understood her tastes, but this matter was no small thing.

The proper etiquette should still be observed.

Qi Jiu called the waiter in, ordered two of her favorite dishes, and then handed the menu to Wan Zhou next to her.

"Eat whatever you want, don't be shy, it's on me."

Bai Mang: "..."

She's very rich, but... well, fine, I'll treat her then.

Wanzhou froze for a moment, like a wooden statue, then slowly took the menu and cautiously looked at the person next to her.

Bai Mang seemed to sense his nervousness and smiled. "Don't be nervous, she doesn't eat people."

Qi Jiu: "..."

Wanzhou: "..."

Wanzhou realized that her gaze had been too direct, and lowered her head somewhat embarrassed.

Miss Qi... is so different from what she remembered. She thought she would be difficult to get along with, but she turned out to be quite easygoing.

After the waiter left the room, Bai Mang's face became serious.

"Wanzhou, we're all Chinese, so we're pretty much in the same circle. You should know this one, Qi Jiu. She's the eldest daughter of the Shen family in City A."

Wanzhou nodded obediently, looking at Qi Jiu with great affection. "Miss Qi."

Looking at Wan Zhou, who was as obedient as a puppy, Bai Mang became playful, and the black water inside his belly churned.

"Wanzhou, call her teacher." As she spoke, she gestured towards Qijiu in the middle with her lip, her face serious.

Upon hearing this, the blond boy was taken aback. He looked at the girl, and although he hesitated and didn't understand why she was doing this, he still obediently spoke up.

"Hello, teacher. Hello, teacher."

Qi Jiu smiled and said, "Stop teasing him."

Just then, the room door opened, and a waiter brought in the dishes. At the same moment, Qi Jiu caught a glimpse of a familiar figure outside the door.

Qi Silin? He's back? No wonder Liu Yun was acting like he was having a blast this afternoon, and I couldn't find him anywhere.

Before he could call out to him, the white light beside him spoke again.

"Wanzhou, you'd better keep an eye on things. This young lady from the Shen family will be your benefactor in the future. Make sure you entertain her well tonight."

Her smile was so sly and obnoxious, it was utterly lewd.

The people at the door turned around abruptly when they heard the words "Miss Shen". Their eyes were filled with impatience.

In the blink of an eye, the girl's smiling face came into his view.

Inside the room, the blond boy's ears were already red, and he was looking down so his expression was not visible. However, from the girl's perspective, she could see his fingers fidgeting with his clothes.

Having reviewed the information, Qi Jiu quickly realized something was wrong with him. She turned to look at Bai Mang, her voice somewhat cold.

"Don't joke about this."

Wan Zhou is undeniably very good-looking. However, her good looks have also brought her, who has no connections, a lot of trouble.

Rich people always have other hobbies, especially when it comes to 'sex'.

Unfortunately, Wanzhou had encountered this problem before. She had seen his videos; he sang and danced very well.

As for why it's not popular, why it lacks resources, and why its resources have been suppressed... it's probably because it didn't accept the unspoken rules.

Seeing his actions, Bai Mang realized she had said the wrong thing, said "sorry" and obediently shut her mouth.

Qi Jiu looked at the man at the door and tilted her head.

She could see that Qi Silin's dark eyes held both expectation and a hint of anger, seemingly because of... Bai Mang's words? What was wrong? Was he angry?

"Ah Lin, come in."

Bai Mang, who had been standing like a quail, was startled and looked up at the man at the door with amazement in her eyes.

Ah Lin? Qi Silin?

Is this the young master of the Qi family?

The man at the door, having received special permission, strode towards Qi Jiu without hesitation.
