"What about tomorrow? Could you let me buy one before you leave?"
Xu Baitao looked at her expectantly, her hands even in a pleading gesture, making her look rather pitiful.
Shi Yi was slightly shocked. She had never dealt with Xu Baitao before and did not expect her to have this kind of personality.
"I swear, I really just want to taste the cake, I can't do anything else!"
She actually took the oath.
"Bai Tao, you need to manage your figure. Can you really eat something as high in calories as cake?" Sister Fang started lecturing from the side.
"Oh, Sister Fang, my agent hasn't been paying attention to me. Besides—you want to buy it yourself too..." She spoke softer and softer, but everyone present still heard her clearly.
"What do you mean? Why would I eat cake? Bai Tao, don't talk nonsense." Sister Fang laughed awkwardly.
Xu Baitao: "Tch."
Fang sighed, turned around and said, "Shiyi, I'm here today on behalf of the company to ask you one last time if you want to renew your contract. Don't worry, the company has made concessions this time, and the contract will definitely satisfy you!"
Without even thinking, Shi Yi refused outright: "No, I'm doing just fine doing what I'm doing now."
Fangjie's face froze for a moment.
"All right."
It seems that Shi Yi is truly disappointed with the company.
"Don't you want to be an entertainer anymore? I've seen your acting, and you acted very well. Wouldn't it be a pity if you stopped?" Xu Baitao said.
Shi Yi: "It's not a pity. I do whatever job I want to make money. There's no difference."
Moreover, she can earn even more from this game!
"Well, I thought we'd have a chance to work together in the future," Xu Baitao said with some regret.
She genuinely thought Shi Yi's acting was outstanding, even though she was heavily criticized in her recent hit drama. But that precisely proves how well she acted, allowing the audience to connect with her character.
However, there are still quite a few irrational people, and perhaps these people have also made her disappointed in this industry.
The atmosphere became deadlocked for a moment.
Xu Ning suddenly appeared from behind one or two people.
"Ahem, excuse me, Sister Shiyi, can I have a piece of cake with you tomorrow?" Xu Ning said, "You can leave it with the security guard, and I can come and pick it up myself later."
Shi Yi: "Okay, what flavor do you want?"
"Blueberry and mousse! Thank you, Sister Shiyi!"
Shi Yi then looked at Xu Baitao, "What about you? Are you coming to pick it up tomorrow or leaving it with the security guard?"
“I’ll come over. Just let me know when you need to go out. I’ll be home these next few days. Look, it’s just around the corner, that’s my house.” Xu Baitao pointed to the corner not far away.
Shi Yi: "I don't have your contact information."
The two barely spoke, let alone exchanged contact information.
Xu Baitao immediately walked up to her, took out her phone, and said, "Add me now, add me now, I'll scan your QR code."
"That's all for now, I'm leaving."
Shi Yi opened the gate and drove the car inside.
The people behind her just watched her go in.
"I really don't understand what she's thinking. Does she really intend to do this for the rest of her life?" Yu Fang shook her head as she watched Shi Yi's retreating figure, feeling quite sorry for her.
As Xu Baitao said, Shi Yi's acting skills are considered very good in the industry. However, alas, the company is a bit blind. They don't promote the ones they should promote, and they promote the ones they shouldn't, resulting in a bunch of flops.
Xu Baitao: "Although it's a pity, she seems to be enjoying herself now, so it's not bad from this perspective."
Xu Ning: "Yes, and Sister Shi Yi is so popular right now. Everyone is so enthusiastic about her food. She's sure to make her business a big success, right?"
"That's true." Yu Fang finally nodded in agreement, but then, as if remembering something, she asked in confusion, "How does she have the money to live here?"
Shi Yi is an orphan; she knows that.
A big shot? A powerful figure?
Who did Shi Yigao hook up with?
