Upon hearing this, she saw Shen Cimo sit down opposite her, his long legs crossed. If those legs were any longer, there probably wouldn't be any room left for them.
Now I'm looking at her with a half-smile.
Qi Jiu: "??"
What kind of smile is that? Something feels... off.
Before she could speak, a folder appeared in front of her. Shen Cimo took out a few sheets of paper from it, which looked like they hadn't been bound yet, and they were placed in front of her.
The girl lowered her eyes, looked at the two characters "Star and Moon" above, raised an eyebrow, and her expression remained unchanged.
"Is this the contract between the Shen family and Xingyue?" Although it was a question, it had already been confirmed beforehand.
"Yes, it's just a preliminary draft. It's almost finished now, and I wanted you to take a look so you can see if there's anything that needs to be changed or if there's anything inappropriate."
The person on the other end did not deny it, but pushed the contract forward a little.
"You want me to see it? Aren't you afraid I won't know how and will give you wrong directions?"
Shen Cimo shook his head. "It's alright, just watch and tell me what you think."
Before, he might not have believed that the young girl in front of him was capable of business warfare, but after accidentally seeing her coming and going from Xingyue, he felt that this matter was not so simple.
People around her treated her with utmost respect, their backs almost bent to the ground.
He didn't believe that the little girl had no status at all, and he believed that no one else would either.
Although he hates to admit it, he has to say that this is the umpteenth time he has felt this kind of frustration.
Question: What should I do if I have a really amazing younger sister? Especially one who's incredibly awesome? Should I just... give up?
Qi Jiu nodded. "Okay, I'll take a look."
The girl read at a glance, skimming the text quickly without missing a single detail.
Looking at her expression, Shen Cimo felt a sudden surge of nervousness for some reason. The last time he felt this way was back in school, when he was facing the head of the teaching department.
Shen Cimo: "..." You might not believe it, but he was actually afraid of his own sister.
Qi Jiu: "..."
A minute passed, and the girl closed the drafted contract. "Overall, there aren't any major problems."
As for the details, it's not convenient to say much now. Let's talk about it in detail on that day. But overall, it fits the description of stars and moon very well.
Upon hearing the answer, Shen Cimo inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's good."
Qi Jiu: "..." What's with the relief?
That day, the girl drove her black car to Qingmai Entertainment. She walked to the door of the practice room as if she knew the way well, but did not push the door open and go in.
She stood there outside the door, watching the boy inside dance without blinking.
As the music played, Wan Zhou's blond hair danced slowly with his movements, making him appear as if he were plated with gold, shimmering and sparkling.
Even each strand of blonde hair has a special feel to it.
Suddenly, for some reason, his movements paused. For this reason, the music in the practice room stopped abruptly, and Wan Zhou's expression changed from enjoyment to annoyance.
They seemed dissatisfied with the result.
"Wanzhou, what are we doing here again?"
The voices of other people could be heard from the practice room. It seemed to be Wanzhou's dance teacher. His tone was not angry, but there was still some helplessness in it. It seemed that he had been stuck in this position many times.
"Everything else is fine, but I've gotten stuck here several times. What's going on?"
Wanzhou bowed somewhat embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, teacher, I..."
"It's okay, it's okay. You've worked very hard, it's just that this position needs improvement."
The dance teacher didn't seem to blame him; in fact, she seemed to be encouraging him, and the music continued.
Qi Jiu looked at the person inside who was still shining brightly and smiled.
"Qiqi?"
Suddenly, a voice came from beside him. He turned his head and saw Feng Nai, who was a bit flamboyant.
"Show-off".
The girl spoke her mind as she truly felt.
Feng Nai's flamboyance is nothing new.
Feng Nai: "..."
Feng Nai's expression changed, and his voice sounded somewhat awkward, "What do you mean by 'showy'? This is called trendy. Have you ever seen anyone else wear such unusual clothes?"
The girl nodded. "No. You're so trendy, wearing a pink zebra-print suit. You're probably the only one in the whole world who owns one."
Feng Nai: "..." No, what do you mean by that?
"Ahem, you've come to see Wanzhou? What, you don't trust Qingmai Entertainment?"
He cleverly changed the subject, and the girl laughed when she heard this. After rolling her eyes at him, she spoke softly.
"You may be a bit flamboyant, but you get things done quite well. After all, you're composing music for Wanzhou, so I came over to take a look and see if I can find any inspiration."
As they spoke, the two walked side by side toward the president's office.
Feng Nai seemed to have anticipated Qi Jiu's arrival and had already prepared Wan Zhou's information.
She sat on the sofa, looked at the stack of documents in front of her, pursed her lips, and patiently started reading from the first one.
Feng Nai wasn't in a hurry; he had already brewed the tea. She watched him drink it while he sipped it.
But to be honest, he didn't dare to rush things.
As time passed, her brows began to furrow, and the grip on the paper tightened.
Wanzhou's life has been truly full of hardships. Not only was her father a gambler, but he was also an accidental victim. Her mother never loved her when she was young, and now she has run off with someone else.
It seems as if he never existed in his world.
Wanzhou grew up with his adoptive grandmother, but a few years ago, that grandmother also passed away. The only person he cared about and who was concerned about him was gone.
That's truly tragic.
No wonder he can face any difficulty with such optimism; he has suffered a lot.
Good heavens, do you want to see what you're doing? You're cutting the thinnest part of the rope.
"Wanzhou has had a tough time, both in terms of her background and her life."
Feng Nai suddenly said this, and Qi Jiu was taken aback. She looked up at his eyes and then smiled.
"I know what you mean. If I didn't want to help, I wouldn't have come here on the first day. Don't worry."
As time passed, Feng Nai got up to see Qi Jiu off. He had only gone halfway when he saw the person in front of him suddenly change direction and walk in another direction.
The girl stood at the door of the training room as before, without going in to disturb them.
Sometime later, only Wanzhou remained in the training room.
When the music stopped, he walked towards the mirror, took a sip of water, wiped the sweat from his forehead with a towel, and started dancing again.
