Chapter 69 You Can’t Be a Third Person for Love
Cui Shao's words sounded both nice and bad. They all sounded good, but behind the scenes they were all rhetoric that made people sound awkward.
Those with poor concentration have begun to doubt and examine themselves.
However, the two people sitting in front of him were very composed. Gu Nan was calm, and Lin Layue was composed, and they were both unmoved.
Gu Nan said: "So?"
Cui Shao shrugged as if to lay his cards on the table. "Teacher, you're not lying to me."
Smooth talking.
In the final analysis, Cui Shao was attracted to Lin Layue on a whim and wanted to take a different approach and challenge to be the first male model. But after calming down, he was very hesitant. But the words had been said and the person had already made an appointment. If he wanted to go back on his word and say he didn't want to shoot the cover with you, wouldn't that be very embarrassing?
So he called the cameraman Yao Lu over to play the bad guy who didn't like the show, putting pressure on Lin Layue and making him suspect that he had given up.
Seeing that they were not at all surprised or enthusiastic when they met, Gu Nan knew that today's event would not go so smoothly. Otherwise, who would not be moved and distracted when Lin Layue showed this face?
So boring.
So Gu Nan shrugged and said, "I'll have another cup of coffee to take away, you guys pay for it."
After she finished speaking, she stood up and said to Lin Layue, "Let's go."
Although Lin Layue didn't know why he had to leave suddenly, he would of course listen to whatever Gu Nan said. He stood up quickly and held her hand.
I only took a sip of the coffee on the table, and it was still steaming.
Seeing that the two were about to leave, Cui Shao and Yao Lu looked at each other in shock.
Why is this development different from what I imagined?
"Please stay, both of you." Yao Lu tried to persuade them to stay.
Gu Nan stopped and looked back, his bright almond eyes clear and straightforward, "You don't want to pay for us? That's fine, we can each pay for our own."
Yao Lu was embarrassed and almost didn't know how to respond. This little girl was really good at talking.
"I received the news this morning and immediately flew here. I came with great sincerity and hope you two will give me a chance to cooperate."
Gu Nan tilted his head slightly, blinking his eyes in confusion, "But President Cui clearly didn't mean that. Didn't you two discuss this?"
Cui Shao understood very well that this girl was very perceptive. She had seen through his roundabout rhetoric and tactics clearly.
He suddenly felt embarrassed, and at the same time felt a little funny about hitting a wall. He looked at Gu Nan with more seriousness than ever before.
"It's all a misunderstanding. I apologize to both of you."
Seeing that Cui Shao also stood up, Gu Nan pulled Lin Layue back to sit.
He remained calm and composed throughout the whole process, as stern as a stubborn bull, and was very good at intimidating people.
Cui Shao quieted down, and it was Yao Lu's turn to speak.
She does not have the shrewd and slick businessman vibe of Cui Shao. She is straightforward and very pragmatic.
It was similar to what Gu Nan guessed. After discussion, it was decided that the risk of using male models was indeed a bit high, so this was just a proposal at the moment. We could try it as a backup plan, but it might not necessarily be used.
The cover is too challenging, so I will leave it aside for now, but the illustrations for the short stories on the inside pages can be arranged.
There just happened to be a story that specifically needed a guy with a buzz cut, and as long as Lin Layue was willing to come, he would basically be the one.
The royalties will be settled after the magazine is officially on sale and will be sent to him together with the sample issue.
As for future cooperation, it will depend on the magazine’s sales, readers’ response, and magazine demand. I haven’t explained this in detail, but those who understand will understand.
Yao Lu was more sincere and spoke clearly, without any hidden traps in her words, so Gu Nan remained silent.
Finally, Lin Layue made the decision and made an appointment with Yao Lu to come to New Town University for the shoot tomorrow morning. The time is tentatively set at one morning, and if it is not enough, they can make another appointment later.
"It's a pleasure working with you." Yao Lu extended her hand to Lin Layue.
Lin Layue shook her hand and said, "It's a pleasure to work with you."
Yao Lu felt the calluses on his palm and felt a little surprised.
Cui Shao also shook hands with Lin Layue. One hand was a pampered hand that signed with a pen, while the other was a hand that did manual labor to support the family. The contrast was sharp, one thin and one thick.
Cui Shao subconsciously glanced at Gu Nan.
Gu Nan picked up the coffee and took a sip, seemingly unaware of Cui Shao's gaze.
Only after she shook hands with Yao Lu did Cui Shao extend his hand to her.
Gu Nan raised his eyelids and glanced at him, then shook hands with him perfunctorily.
"Actually, with Miss Gu's looks, she can also be a book model," he said suddenly.
Gu Nan's appearance is harmless and charming, which quite meets the requirements of "Jie Yi" magazine. She may even be more successful than Lin Layue.
But Gu Nan just ignored him and said, "I have my own expertise and I won't compete with my boyfriend for food."
Cui Shao smiled and adjusted his glasses. The lenses reflected the dazzling sunlight, making it difficult to see the color in his eyes. "I made a slip of the tongue."
Gu Nan and Lin Layue left with the packed coffee. Cui Shao sat down again, picked up the cold coffee and drank it all in one gulp, his eyes fixed on the couple who were gradually walking away.
Yao Lu groaned, "This trip is so tiring. This isn't my job."
"Give you a raise."
Yao Lu immediately beamed, patting Cui Shao on the shoulder in a rather fawning manner, "Boss, you're mighty, boss, you're wise. It's getting harder and harder to fool young girls these days, look at that clever little mouth."
Cui Shao curled his lips, took off his glasses, and wiped them slowly and elegantly. "Don't think I don't know you're making fun of me in your heart."
A man who spent all day hunting geese was suddenly pecked in the eye by a goose. The youngest son of the Cui family had been domineering in the Beijing circle for so many years, but this was probably the first time he had suffered such a humiliation.
The little girl turned around and left, eating and taking things at the same time. It was so interesting.
Yao Lu laughed inwardly, but pretended to be terrified on the outside. "How could that be? Heaven can bear witness to my loyalty to you."
Cui Shao put on his glasses and didn't comment on what she said. He looked out the window, but there was no trace of the young couple on the scorching hot street.
The image of Gu Nan's indifferent and perfunctory look suddenly appeared in his mind. He raised his eyelids and his disgust was evident in his eyes.
Good-looking people look good in any expression, and even if they make a grumpy face, they can gain more tolerance.
She was generous and straightforward, and she couldn't stand his long-winded rhetoric that tried to praise first and then criticize.
He was a little curious, "Why do you think she also packed a cup of coffee to take back?"
Yao Lu was confused, "Maybe he likes her?"
“Tsk.”
She only drank one-third of the coffee in front of her, and Lin Layue only took a sip of hers. If she liked it, why wouldn't she finish it?
"If I had known earlier, I would have added her contact information."
Yao Lu:?
She was shocked, "Boss, are you serious?"
"Just kidding."
He stood up, straightened his clothes, and with one long step, he jumped out of the chair and walked out.
Yao Lu stumbled after him, "Boss, think twice! She's a married woman, you can't be a mistress for love. The old man will beat you to death if he finds out!"
Her words immediately attracted a lot of strange looks from people in the store.
Cui Shao looked back, his eyes half-smiling but half-smiling as if daggers were wielding. "Pay the bill."
Yao Lu paid the bill nervously and walked out of the coffee shop, only to see the back of Cui Shao's luxury car roaring away into the distance.
"Mr. Cui, I haven't gotten on the bus yet!"
Damn capitalists!
