Chapter 18 I'm Not Interested in You
The woman probably drank quite a bit of wine, and when she came close to him, a strong smell of alcohol hit him in the face.
Her hands were soft, but strong enough to hold onto his arm tightly, like an octopus that couldn't be torn off.
Pu Yao tried to see calculation in her eyes, but there was nothing. Those beautiful peach blossom eyes were full of clear stupidity.
Her crystal clear black eyes were pure and clean. Although she was a little hazy and drunken at the moment, she could still be seen through at a glance, as if her soul was spotless.
Pu Yao couldn't help but feel a little confused. The last time he saw Bai Qiuwu, her eyes didn't seem so clear. Was she drunk and had lost all her thoughts?
After a long time of ups and downs in the business world, Pu Yao got used to judging a person's emotions from his eyes. He could see greed, desire, calculation, even feelings and all other emotions from his eyes.
He hadn't seen such clear eyes in a long time, like the purest obsidian.
Facing such a pair of eyes, Pu Yao couldn't get angry, but he didn't feel much concern either.
He said in a calm, even voice, "Let go."
Bai Qiuwu's slow brain reacted for a moment, then he shook his head slowly and firmly: "No."
"You'll run away if I let go." Bai Qiuwu said bluntly, "If you run away, I won't be able to find you, so I won't let go."
"What do you want to talk to me about?" Pu Yao asked patiently, "What's the matter?"
He thought that Bai Qiuwu might have known his identity and wanted to ask him for help.
For example, signing a contract with a live streaming platform, or being banned from the entertainment industry and wanting to find someone for help. Even more outrageous, they felt that deceiving Pu Xi alone was not enough, and they had to involve him as well.
But he never expected that Bai Qiuwu's answer would be: "You and I are destined to be together. I, I want to help you realize your wish."
Pu Yao: “…”
Pu Yao fell into speechlessness again.
He looked at the woman hanging on his arm with a speechless look, and a crack finally appeared on his meticulous expression.
"Do you know who I am?" he asked her.
"Burp." Bai Qiuwu burped loudly and nodded seriously: "I know."
She said very seriously: "You are my big gold mountain."
Pu Yao: “?”
What the hell is Dajinshan?
The sponsor’s alternative explanation?
She wanted to find a sponsor and fell in love with me?
Pu Yao was not unfamiliar with the entertainment industry, and he knew that many glamorous stars had financial backers. He even rejected many who wanted to get into his bed.
But this was the first time he had seen someone recommend someone so directly.
"Do you know what you are saying?" Pu Yao's tone became heavier, with a hint of warning.
Bai Qiuwu was completely unaware of the danger and even said naively, "I know, my future depends on you."
Whether she can return to heaven in this body during her lifetime depends entirely on the support of this great gold mountain.
But to Pu Yao, this didn't mean anything like that.
The future depends on oneself? Sure enough, he is looking for a sponsor.
His eyes turned cold, and Pu Yao pulled his hand back without hesitation. Looking at the still bewildered woman, he rejected her word by word: "I'm not interested in you. Find someone else."
Bai Qiuwu's arms suddenly felt empty. He blinked blankly and asked in confusion, "Why are you looking for someone else? I just want to find you."
Pu Yao frowned: "Why?"
"Because I love you, once I see you, once I see you..."
Her somewhat confused brain couldn't recall the word "rugu" in "rugu at first sight". After being stuck for a long time, she simply blurted out: "Love at first sight."
"Yes, I fell in love with you at first sight."
Bai Qiuwu was completely unaware that there was anything wrong with what he said. His eyes were shining as he stared at the man in front of him. Pu Yao could even see his own reflection in those clear pupils.
The midsummer wind is hot, making people feel inexplicably restless. Pu Yao felt it was ridiculous when he heard her confession to him.
He really didn't want to continue nagging the drunk, so he simply turned around and went back to the restaurant and gave their manager some money, asking them to bring the drunk back to the store and take care of him.
He refused to reveal his identity and left after explaining himself without any reluctance, as if he was just a kind stranger.
And that seems to be the case.
Bai Qiuwu slept soundly in the restaurant's lounge until dawn.
When she woke up, it was already bright outside.
Her head hurt a little after the hangover. She rubbed her temples and thought for a long time before she remembered that she seemed to have encountered the big gold mountain she had been thinking about last night.
But she forgot what she said, and only vaguely remembered that she seemed to scare people away because of her enthusiasm.
Bai Qiuwu couldn't help but sigh heavily.
Business is really hard these days. When I was in heaven, people were eager to make wishes for me. Why am I so despised now that I'm on earth?
It turns out that a phoenix in distress is no better than a chicken.
As she sighed like this, she went to withdraw all the money from the check and received a call from Pu Xi during this time.
She didn't want to answer the call at first, but when she saw that he had more than a dozen missed calls, she hesitated and finally answered it.
"Sister Bai! You finally answered my call!"
The assistant sounded like she was about to cry. Bai Qiuwu couldn't help but frown as he listened: "What's wrong? What happened?"
"I thought you would never talk to me again. I was too presumptuous towards you before. I apologize to you, woo woo woo. I only ask Master to forgive my offense."
In Pu Xi's mind, Bai Qiuwu is now basically equated with the immortal. When he thinks of the fact that he had threatened Bai Qiuwu before, he feels scared.
He was really afraid that Bai Qiuwu would just pick up someone on the street and say, "I'll give you some money, and you make a wish that something happens to Pu Xi." Just thinking about that scene was terrifying.
Bai Qiuwu certainly didn't know what Pu Xi was worried about, but she keenly noticed the change in the address.
"You called me Master?" She immediately sensed something was going on: "Did something happen at the company? Did the landlord's wish come true?"
"Yeah!" Pu Xi answered truthfully, "Looking at the company's situation, I think they're going to declare bankruptcy today."
Bai Qiuwu was not surprised and said calmly, "I understand."
Pu Xi wanted to build a good relationship with her so badly that he couldn't help but start a conversation: "Sister, what are you going to do next? Do you need my help with the live streaming platform?"
"Can you help?" Bai Qiuwu asked back.
Pu Xi hesitated and said awkwardly, "I can take you to see my brother. He's the boss. All he needs is a word. I think there's a misunderstanding between you two."
Bai Qiuwu rolled his eyes: "No misunderstanding, see you."
Pu Xi was a little unwilling: "Is there anything I can help with? Just tell me."
Bai Qiuwu opened her mouth and wanted to say, "No, you can do me the most great favor by staying away from me," but the words were on the tip of her tongue and she swallowed them back.
Because she found that she seemed to be really busy and might need his help.
This seemingly not-so-smart assistant seems to be the son of a certain group.
It should be easier for someone of this status to find someone than for her, right?
Thinking of this, Bai Qiuwu changed the subject and softened his tone: "Pu Xi, I think I really need your help with something."
Pu Xi's spirits brightened, and he quickly asked, "What's the matter, sister? Just tell me what you want."
"I want you to help me find someone."
"Who is it?" Pu Xi instantly became interested, and her curiosity ignited at the same time: "Sister, please tell me in detail."
Bai Qiuwu weighed his words carefully: "He's a friend I instantly hit it off with. I really want to get to know him, but he seems a little resistant to me."
"I think there might be some misunderstanding between us. I want to get to know you."
Pu Xi understood: "No problem, what's his name? I'll help you find him."
Bai Qiuwu was a little embarrassed: "I don't know his name, but he's quite handsome and seems to be quite rich. He's probably in his twenties."
Pu Xi was waiting for her to describe her characteristics, but Bai Qiuwu had already finished. He couldn't help but feel a little surprised: "That's all?"
Bai Qiuwu was very calm: "Yeah."
Pu Xi: "...Isn't your description a bit too general?"
Bai Qiuwu: "I think so too. So it all depends on you, Xiaoxi. You studied journalism, right? I believe in your keenness and you will definitely be able to find him. Come on!"
Pu Xi: “…”
He felt he couldn't.
Given this simple, common characteristic, with no information at all, how could he possibly find it? It was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
He thought the master must be joking. After all, if he could find someone with just this little information, he would eat the phone on the spot.
No kidding, the kind you eat raw.
But Bai Qiuwu acted very serious, as if he really wanted to find such a person.
Pu Xi hesitated for a moment, really having no idea, and tentatively said, "How about you come with me to meet my brother? Your conditions are too general, I can't find one, but my brother can definitely do it."
Bai Qiuwu was almost amused by this kid who kept talking about his brother: "Is your brother so awesome?"
Pu Xi was extremely proud: "Yes, my brother can do anything!"
"oh."
She smiled slowly: "I don't believe it."
The guy who didn't let her sign the contract and kept saying she was feudal and superstitious had no vision at all. She didn't believe how powerful he was.
Pu Xi was a little anxious: "You have a misunderstanding about my brother. My brother is really amazing. Just meet him."
Bai Qiuwu said with disdain: "Not interested."
No matter how powerful he is, he is just a mortal. She will not meet someone who has no vision.
She also wanted to let that short-sighted mortal know how much good she would miss out on if she didn't sign!
Sooner or later he will regret it!
