Yun Shudai then remembered what Mili had told her before: He Qingyi, Bai Muyin, and Jin Kangrui were classmates, but she didn't expect that Mr. Bai and the villain He lived in the same neighborhood.
No wonder I ran into him last time.
"Shushu, don't be afraid. He is my classmate He Qingyi. He's not a bad person."
Not bad? Haha, the book says that when he punishes people, he sends them to the worst places abroad, making them wish they were dead. Although she has seen many inside stories of the entertainment industry, compared to He Qingyi, it's nothing.
Having been given a second chance at life, I never expected to die so quickly because I offended He Qingyi.
Yun Shudai revealed a smile that looked more like a grimace.
Bai Muyin shot He Qingyi a cold glare, clearly displeased.
Knowing he was in the wrong, He Qingyi quickly poured Yun Shudai a cup of tea and apologized: "Miss Yun, nothing really happened before, right? As an apology, consider this necklace as a gift from me to Miss Yun."
As she spoke, she placed the gift box that she had prepared for Bai Muyin in front of Yun Shudai.
Bai Muyin took it aside and said, "We can afford to pay for this."
"Hey... don't go too far, it's your own fault for not telling me last time."
"How about you offer a different form of compensation, like the female lead in a certain drama?"
Yun Shudai glanced at him, puzzled, but then noticed him squeezing her hand under the table. She instantly understood – her Mr. Bai was trying to get some benefits for her.
How could He Qingyi not understand? He raised an eyebrow and said, "Miss Yun, didn't you tell your boss, Mr. Bai, about the book you received called 'The Glimmer in the Dawn'?"
Yun Shudai was puzzled by his words: "Mr. He knows about this?" Then she turned to Bai Muyin and said, "I just received the invitation to star in this drama two days ago?"
He Qingyi said, "So, for Miss Yun, taking on this role and having such a great opportunity to generate buzz is the best thing that could happen to her."
"What hype?"
Bai Muyin then told her about the photos of her and He Qingyi being taken in the neighborhood.
Yun Shudai's first reaction was to refuse: "Mr. He, putting aside the fact that I have a boyfriend now, don't you know about my previous scandals? If I were to create hype with you now, it would only worsen my reputation. Being infamous is not what I want. Besides, I already have a boyfriend..."
Finally, Yun Shudai gave He Qingyi a disdainful look, moved closer to Bai Muyin before daring to continue, "Your reputation isn't very good in our circle either?"
"..."
"puff.."
Upon hearing Yun Shudai's words, one person's face darkened, while the other couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"Where did Miss Yun hear that from?"
Yun Shudai clung to Bai Muyin's arm, not daring to speak.
She figured this out from the comments in the book.
"Tell me, as compensation, I'll give you the lead role in a TV series?"
Bai Muyin thought this was a good deal and immediately bargained for his girlfriend, saying, "Not this one now?"
"No, give me another one."
We don't consider small-scale productions.
"...OK."
"What's the deadline?"
"Bai Muyin, don't go too far... Alright, if it happens this year, I definitely won't forget Miss Yun."
Bai Muyin nodded in satisfaction, not forgetting to add He Qingyi's exasperated comment: "Shushu, tell Sister Yao to contact Assistant Qin of Dongjiang Group and get a contract signed, that guy is cunning."
Yun Shudai nodded; she thought so too.
Looking at the two people beside him, He Qingyi felt a surge of frustration. He shouldn't have invited the man surnamed Bai for tea today. He said angrily, "Tell me, who in the industry said that?"
