Song Lingshan didn't go out to find Su Luo; instead, she returned to her seat, picked up her wine glass, and drank alone.
Just a few minutes.
Ye Xiaoman, dressed in a black gothic-style dress, arrived with a bag on her back, sat down by herself, took a sip of ice water, and complained.
"Shanshan, let me tell you, you have no idea how annoying that repair shop owner was. He kept asking me what country I was from and why I was dressed like that. I said China, and he kept nagging and arguing..."
Song Lingshan gave her a dry laugh, her face looking extremely unpleasant.
Ye Xiaoman asked in surprise.
"Hey, what's wrong with you? I was just a little late, is it really necessary to be so angry?"
Song Lingshan shook her head and pointed to the empty seat at the next table.
Ye Xiaoman looked over in confusion and asked timidly, "What's wrong? There's no one here? Did you see a ghost?"
Good heavens, she actually believes in this. I just don't know if the cross she wears around her neck will work against the ghosts in China.
Song Lingshan rolled her eyes in disdain and said embarrassedly, "What are you thinking about?"
I really don't know what Ye Xiaoman's brain circuits are like, how come they are completely different from other people's.
She continued, "My ex-boyfriend was at this table just now."
Ye Xiaoman excitedly tugged at her arm, "Hey, where is she?"
She was really curious to see what kind of charm this man, whom Song Lingshan had loved so passionately for six years, possessed.
Song Lingshan took a sip of her drink and said helplessly, "They ran away."
"Then why don't you go after him? Wait, that's not right. Didn't you say your ex-boyfriend was a working-class guy? Why did he order such expensive drinks?"
Ye Xiaoman frequented the bar, and at first glance, she noticed something odd about the bottles of liquor on the table.
Could it be that her ex-boyfriend found another rich woman, and Song Lingshan bumped into him, which is why Song Lingshan was too embarrassed to pursue him?
Song Lingshan's face darkened further: "His friend ordered it."
Ye Xiaoman asked cautiously, "Girlfriend?"
"I don't know, I didn't see it."
"Why don't you check it out? Don't you know the owner of this place? Just check the security footage and the bills, and you'll know."
Song Lingshan tilted her head back and finished the drink in her glass, saying disdainfully, "Is that really necessary?"
She and Su Luo broke up three years ago. During those three years, she was abroad and they had no contact. However, Su Luo had not dated anyone, not because no one had shown interest in him.
Several girls pursued Su Luo during her school days, but Su Luo never agreed to any of them.
The information Wenzi investigated was crystal clear: he had not booked a hotel room with any woman in the past three years, nor had he had any scandals with the female artists in the company.
Therefore, she felt that Su Luo wouldn't really fall in love with another woman after only a few days away from the company.
Moreover, Su Luo wasn't the kind of person who coveted vanity and wouldn't be swayed by any rich woman, since there were very few women in the capital who were richer than her.
What angered her was that Su Luo didn't accept her kindness at all and was very resistant to her. When she saw her, Su Luo acted like a mouse seeing a cat, wanting to hide, which really annoyed her.
Ye Xiaoman stared wide-eyed in disbelief.
"You mean he could never fall for someone else? You're so confident!"
Song Lingshan retorted, "Shouldn't we? I waited for him for three years, and he waited for me for three years. It's just that I misunderstood him a while ago and bullied him a little too much."
She felt that Su Luo was just being stubborn with her, and that he would come back once he figured things out.
Ye Xiaoman took out a pack of menthol cigarettes from her bag, lit one with a lighter, and said earnestly.
"Shanshan, I think we shouldn't be too definitive. People's hearts can't withstand tests, especially men's hearts."
Although she had never been in a relationship, she entered society in her teens and had seen too many men and women. When she was in love, she loved him to death, but once she encountered a third party, she was very likely to cheat.
Their band's drummer is even more impressive; he can date four girlfriends at once, and if you ask him to choose his favorite, he says he likes them all and they each have their own merits.
Song Lingshan shook her head and said seriously.
"He's different from other men; you don't understand him."
Ye Xiaoman exhaled a puff of smoke and said calmly.
"Alright, I won't try to persuade you anymore. After all, it's your own business."
Song Lingshan poured Ye Xiaoman a glass of wine, handed it to her with a smile, and said...
"Let's not talk about unhappy things. How are you and your siblings doing?"
Ye Xiaoman's eyes lit up when she mentioned her younger brother and sister-in-law, and she said proudly.
"She became my student. I taught her to sing and play the guitar."
Song Lingshan clicked her tongue and exclaimed, "Wow, that's impressive, the development is so rapid."
Ye Xiaoman raised her wine glass and clinked it with Song Lingshan's.
"Yeah, come on, cheers, wish me a speedy start to base!"
"cheers!"
...
The sky was turning white as the sun slowly rose.
Su Luo, who was lying on the bed with a hangover, was woken up again by the vibration of her phone.
Su Luo squinted and pulled her phone out from under her pillow. She glanced at the screen and saw that it was a call from A Yue, the operations manager.
It's not even five o'clock yet. Doesn't this woman need to sleep? Why is she calling me so early in the morning?
Filled with resentment, she answered the phone, her voice hoarse.
"Hey, Sister Yue."
"Quickly check how many followers you have in your account's backend."
"oh."
Following A Yue's instructions, Su Luo opened the Kangaroo Live backend and glanced at the number of followers.
"?"
I thought I was seeing things, so I wiped the screen, and it was correct.
When did it increase so much? It was only a few hundred before.
"Sister Yue, what's going on? Why did it suddenly rise so much?"
A-Yue said calmly.
“The screen recording of your PK with Bai Bing was edited by your fans and posted on the platform, and it went viral yesterday.”
She watched the short video and edited it to a high standard, but even with a high standard, Bai Bing only has a million followers, and drinking cola is an old trick; it shouldn't have gone viral.
It's likely that fans paid a high price to boost the page, which is why it went viral.
Su Luo was so focused on hiking with Ozawa Nami yesterday that she didn't check her phone at all, she said in surprise.
Which fan?
"You ask me? How would I know? Shouldn't you already know?"
Su Luo fell silent after being rebuked. It seems she really drank too much yesterday, and her mind is becoming increasingly sluggish.
It's really not right to ask A-Yue. He can check his account himself or ask the fans who have added him on WeChat later.
"I'm calling you to ask you to take a vocal lesson at the company after your live stream this afternoon. You're very lucky; you've gained over 10,000 followers in just a few days, and you even have some true fans. So you need to make the most of your time to practice singing and improve your skills."
"If you practice your singing well and maintain good relationships with your true fans, a million fans and a six-figure monthly income will come very quickly. Keep it up! I believe in you!"
Although A-Yue is a bit strict, she has always been responsible and dedicated to her artists.
Su Luo felt a warmth in her heart and politely declined, saying, "Sister Yue, I've found a music teacher myself, so I won't be going to the company's training. I'll work hard, thank you."
"That works too. Also, the clothes you wear on camera aren't quite right. I'll send you pictures of clothes that suit your style in a bit, and you can buy them on Taobao. They won't cost much."
"OK."
