Chapter 219: Tang Zong Entertainment, the Terrifying Xiao Xue

The streetlights emitted a dim yellow glow.

The flow of people and traffic never stopped for a moment.

"Tap, tap, tap..." High heels struck the ground, making a crisp and rhythmic sound.

Lin Mu Xue, stepping in her Valentino three-ring high heels, was nearly 1.8 meters tall with an excellent figure ratio and a calm, composed expression.

Her fingers hooked casually onto her Hermès Birkin, she was wrapped in sexy LV fashion, her posture was upright and elegant, and her straight, long legs were bright and dazzling.

She stood in the Bund district, where history and modernity blended.

She seemed like a modern lady who had walked out of an old-time movie, yet she carried the independence and confidence of a modern woman.

Attracting the gazes of everyone around.

"Ms. Lin, I will park the car nearby; contact me anytime if you need anything." The cold-faced driver gently closed the door and bowed.

Lin Mu Xue turned slightly and nodded gently: "Mm."

The few people by the roadside who had been chatting about Xu An and Zhang Chengjun gradually went quiet.

The three girls opened their mouths slightly, looking in surprise at Xiao Xue, who had stepped out of the Maybach.

It was clearly still the same her, yet the feeling she gave off was completely different.

Before, when Xiao Xue was with them, even when she was showing off, she seemed a bit fake.

Now, she seemed full of confidence.

Covered in luxury goods, set off by the luxury car and driver, she truly looked like a real socialite.

"Zi Chu, Sister Weiwei, Chen Chen, good evening." Lin Mu Xue smiled, paced over to stand in front of the three, and looked down at them.

These three could also be considered "old friends," whom she had known when she was a part-time model.

Li Shengyu, who returned to the booth, still had an excited blush on his face. He put the glass down heavily and said excitedly: "Over there, not only is there our Director Zhang, but also the leader of the Artist Agency Department of Tang Zong Entertainment!"

There were those like Lin Mu Xue, who were office workers or influencers with proper jobs, but out of vanity or social needs, chose to package themselves by buying (real/fake) luxury goods, attending socialite parties, etc., to create the illusion of being a socialite.

There were also freelancers who shaped their image by displaying a socialite lifestyle to raise their own value.

These three "old friends" belonged to the freelancers, often flying around domestic big cities, occasionally bumping into each other, and then joining a group together.

Because they had relatively high incomes and spent money lavishly, they didn't like Lin Mu Xue, who was a bit stingy.

Occasionally, they would make cold, sarcastic remarks in the group or to her face.

"Good evening, Xiao Xue." The three greeted her simply, their gazes looking at the small details on her.

The Jiang Shidan on her wrist, the Bulgari on her neck...

Damn! Why does it feel like it might be real?

Lin Mu Xue "hummed" twice inside, unable to stop the corners of her mouth from rising.

Brother Yu stared brightly at the woman who had suddenly appeared, his gaze full of eagerness.

Truly a rare, top-tier beauty!

Compared to her, Sister Weiwei and the others were far behind.

Besides figure and appearance, it was more about temperament.

He nudged his good buddy Xu An with his shoulder, winked, and gestured toward Lin Mu Xue's direction.

This was an unexpected harvest for today.

With a celebrity artist like Xu An coming forward, maybe they could really hook up.

⊙C〇

After all, she was with Sister Weiwei and the others, so there should be a chance to get his hands on her.

Brother Yu patted Sister Weiwei on the shoulder and said excitedly: "Sister Weiwei, is this beauty a friend of yours? Let's go, let's go up and have a drink together!"

Lin Mu Xue raised her slender eyebrows: "Who are these two?"

"They're Sister Weiwei's friends, Brother Yu and Xu An." Chen Chen took the initiative to reply.

Xu An gently took off his sunglasses, looked up, smiled, and waved: "Hello, I'm Xu An."

He had a handsome and gentle appearance, was about 1.8 meters tall, wore a gray T-shirt, and had a tall, thin, and upright build.

As an artist, his physique, outfit, and makeup had no obvious flaws.

After taking off his sunglasses and straightening his body, he looked very bright.

The three people next to Sister Weiwei were all somewhat moved.

Facing a handsome guy of this level, they didn't mind something happening proactively.

Lin Mu Xue just nodded faintly and shifted her gaze away.

Brother Yu raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Beauty, you don't know him?"

"Oh? Don't know him." Lin Mu Xue appeared very calm.

She wasn't some face-obsessed person; although this Xu An was very handsome, what did it have to do with her?

Brother Yu's mouth twitched; this woman seemed a bit difficult to handle. Was she really this cold?

Chen Chen next to her said: "Xu An is a celebrity; he plays the second male lead in the recently popular 'Pear Blossom First Snow'."

Hearing this, Lin Mu Xue's eyes flashed, and only then did she look at Xu An.

A celebrity?

She rarely watched dramas and didn't chase stars, so she didn't know much about these things.

But if he was a celebrity, she could take two photos later to show off.

Noticing the curious gaze Lin Mu Xue cast, Xu An smiled and blinked.

oC〇

Handsome, good figure, and the identity of an artist.

He was very confident in himself now.

"Let's go! It's so lively today, we must have a few more drinks!" Brother Yu greeted everyone and walked toward the entrance.

Passing through the artistic gate, they took the elevator directly to the 7th floor.

Upon entering the bar, the first thing that caught the eye was the red decoration full of desire, passion, and temptation. The seductive portraits on the walls and the high-heel-inspired table designs revealed a unique, charming atmosphere.

Dynamic music lingered in their ears, and gorgeous lights flickered and intersected.

Lin Mu Xue took the initiative to walk in the front, stepping onto the super-large terrace.

Looking into the distance, the bustling scene of the Bund was in full view.

Soft and deep red lights intertwined with hazy golden light and shadows, dyeing the space in a hazy and dreamy color.

Being in such an environment was equivalent to having a built-in beauty filter.

The group sat down in a booth, and a gentle river breeze blew from the side.

Lin Mu Xue placed her bag carefully, flicked her wavy long hair, and her slightly raised face seemed to be shrouded in a layer of radiance.

The dazzling Bulgari diamond necklace, the eye-catching Jiang Shidan, the beautiful and exquisite features, the slender and graceful posture...

She instantly became the most beautiful person on the scene, attracting many gazes from around.

Brother Yu was extremely jealous; he nudged Xu An with his shoulder, leaned into his ear, and whispered: "This woman is really fucking decent. You hit a wall with that big-breasted female classmate tonight, didn't you? If you can take down this Xiao Xue, it will definitely make you forget about your female classmate."

Xu An licked his lips, looked at the sexy and enchanting Lin Mu Xue, and felt an inexplicable heartbeat.

When his high school classmate and white moonlight, Cheng Qiuqiu, came to Magic City, he had specifically pushed aside all social engagements today to take her out to play for most of the day.

After sending her to the hotel in the evening, he took the opportunity to suggest staying behind to chat and reminisce about the past.

He had originally thought that based on their relationship and his current achievements, he should be able to take her down as a matter of course.

He didn't expect to be rejected directly.

That was why he had dragged Li Shengyu to the bar to find some fun.

He didn't expect to run into such a beauty, whose figure and temperament were both outstanding.

She looked like a high-knowledge socialite, full of desire to conquer.

The three girls next to them were also jealous.

Chen Chen said sourly: "Xiao Xue, let us see your Hermès, okay?"

She had studied Hermès bags quite a bit; a boyfriend she had dated once bought her one at a second-hand shop, and she still often took it out to show off.

She really wanted to verify the authenticity of Xiao Xue's bag.

Making them believe that this stingy Xiao Xue had gotten rich was just too uncomfortable.

She really wanted to take a deep look at the authenticity of these luxury goods.

After all, Xiao Xue had a precedent of buying fakes.

"Sure." Lin Mu Xue smiled and scanned them, handing the bag over.

The three girls huddled together and examined it carefully.

The expressions on their faces became increasingly rich.

They were all senior luxury goods researchers and had the eye for it; after seeing the real thing, they could naturally distinguish between true and false.

Top-tier genuine leather material with a special fragrance, full graininess on the surface, and good luster.

Hermès leather goods are all hand-stitched, with very high requirements for details. Birkin 30s all have diagonal stitching, smooth and natural, with neat and subtle needle holes.

The hardware, engravings, hot-stamped logo, chevre leather lining...

After a thorough check, they were basically 100% confirmed: it was the real thing!

"Xiao Xue, let us see the watch. I've seen this Overseas 2305V before at a friend's, but it wasn't the rose gold color." Zi Chu swallowed her saliva, her voice somewhat dry.

Seeing their expressions, Lin Mu Xue's eyes twitched with excitement; she raised her snowy wrist and elegantly unbuckled the clasp.

Thinking about it, she didn't give it to them directly, but held it in her hand for them to see.

This watch was a gift from Tang Song, and it was a "couple's watch" with his, so it meant a lot to her.

If these little bitches accidentally made a scratch on it, she would be heartbroken.

Soon, the three girls' eyes turned red, full of envy and jealousy.

These two most expensive items proved their authenticity, so the others should be real too.

This was a brand new Hermès Birkin 30! Including the matching goods, it cost 300,000 yuan to get!

And that Overseas watch worth 230,000!

Everything the three of them had put together couldn't compare to one of her watches.

Lin Mu Xue took out her phone and beckoned to them: "The weather is really nice today, and the scenery is great too. Let's take a group photo."

Chen Chen and the others huddled over reluctantly. Lin Mu Xue opened the camera and pressed the shutter: "Click—"

With the sparkling Bund and the glittering Lujiazui skyscraper cluster as the background, Lin Mu Xue, who was smiling slightly and in the C-position, was exceptionally bright and charming.

Sharing the photo to the "Ren Mingyuan Group," Lin Mu Xue left a message: "Very happy to check in at the Bund 18 bar with @Chen Chen, @Zi Chu, @Sister Weiwei, the scenery is truly beautiful."

Then, she put her phone back in her bag, ignoring the noisy discussions in the group.

She picked up the orange-red cocktail and took a big gulp, feeling extremely happy inside.

Li Shengyu quickly picked up his glass and said loudly: "Come, come, come, Xiao Xue, drinking alone is boring, let's clink glasses."

His gaze was fixed on her, and he was craving her inside.

Lin Mu Xue didn't pay any attention to him, as if she hadn't heard.

Li Shengyu's expression instantly became awkward.

Xu An saw this, patted him on the shoulder, held up his glass, and smiled: "Let's all six of us clink glasses together. My treat tonight, beauties, drink as much as you want."

"Thanks, Brother Xu." "Thanks."

"Ding, ding, ding—" The sound of glasses clinking rang out.

Watching Lin Mu Xue, who was giving Xu An so much face, Li Shengyu couldn't help but curse a few times inside, but on the surface, he was still very normal.

The group chatted about the bar performance today and the surrounding environment, and the atmosphere eased up a lot.

After experiencing a psychological struggle, Chen Chen, Zi Chu, and Sister Weiwei licked their faces and borrowed Lin Mu Xue's bag to take photos.

Then they took a few intimate group photos with Xu An.

Sharing them to their respective Moments and Douyin.

They had very few chances to come into contact with celebrities, and even if it was just an unknown Xu An, it was enough to show off for a long time.

"Xiao Xue, let's take one together?" Xu An leaned against the railing and blinked at Lin Mu Xue.

Lin Mu Xue nodded, handed her phone to Chen Chen, and also stood at the railing, leaning her arm back.

The river breeze blew from behind, blowing her long hair loose, which was exceptionally charming.

Seeing that Xu An had the intention of moving closer, she raised her eyebrows and blocked him with the Birkin 30.

Xu An's mouth twitched, a flash of embarrassment and anger in his eyes.

Since college, no girl had ever treated him like this, but then a strong desire to conquer surged up.

After taking the photo, Lin Mu Xue looked at the group photo with satisfaction.

She had secretly checked just now; this Xu An was actually a bit famous, with over a million followers on Douyin, making him a good tool for traffic diversion.

Of course, "having someone in her heart," she definitely wouldn't have any intimate contact with the other party, and she had deliberately kept her distance when taking the photo.

It was just an ordinary celebrity check-in photo.

The night deepened.

The gorgeous red lights on the terrace reflected off the brilliant neon on the opposite Lujiazui.

The atmosphere in the bar gradually reached a climax.

The focus in the booth gradually shifted to Xu An.

He talked about his daily life of filming and occasionally revealed some small gossip among celebrities.

Causing the few women in the booth to "chatter" for a while.

Even Lin Mu Xue listened with great interest.

After all, she was just a small person, and her personal vision and knowledge were still insufficient.

Seeing her expression and reaction, the smile on Xu An's face grew wider and wider.

He believed that with his charm, as long as they interacted a few more times, he would eventually make this cold Xiao Xue fall for him.

Just then, Li Shengyu suddenly nudged Xu An's shoulder, lowered his head, and said somewhat nervously: "Xu An, I think I see our Director Zhang."

Hearing this, Xu An's hand holding the glass tightened: "Where?"

"45 degrees to the front left, very close to us, she should have just arrived not long ago."

Xu An looked up and saw not far away a woman in fashionable casual wear, in her 30s, with a well-maintained figure and pretty, medium-short hair.

Opposite her was also a woman; he could only see her back, her long hair pinned up, wearing semi-professional attire, looking very elegant.

"It really is Director Zhang!" Xu An's heart jumped.

He and Li Shengyu were both signed artists of Qianmo Media.

But he was much luckier; he had gotten the second male lead role in "Pear Blossom First Snow" before graduation and had become a little famous.

Coupled with his own singing skills, he had become one of the key training targets for Qianmo Media.

This Zhang Xiaoli was the director of the Artist Management Department and could be considered his direct superior.

His contract and resources were basically in her hands.

Chen Chen opposite them keenly noticed the abnormality between the two and asked curiously: "What's wrong, Brother Xu, Brother Yu? Do you have something going on?"

Li Shengyu grinned and said: "We ran into a big shot from our company."

Sister Weiwei asked in surprise: "Ah? What big shot? Is she a celebrity too?"

They had just heard the two mention Qianmo Media; although it wasn't a big company, there were two second-tier big names among the artists under it.

"Hehe, she's not a celebrity." Li Shengyu was a high-profile person and couldn't help but show off: "But Guo Ruoheng was brought up by her single-handedly."

"Guo Ruoheng!?" "Really?"

Hearing this name, the four girls opposite were all somewhat excited.

Guo Ruoheng was a very popular first-tier celebrity now; the movie he starred in had just won the box office championship for the same period, and he was currently a resident guest on a popular national variety show.

He often appeared on Weibo and Douyin hot searches and could be called red-hot.

Even Lin Mu Xue, who didn't chase stars, often saw videos of him.

"Of course it's true!" Li Shengyu smiled and mentioned a few other artists' names: "Our Director Zhang is a well-known agent in the industry. She previously worked at Tang Zong Entertainment and jumped to Qianmo Media last year to serve as the Artist Director."

"Tang Zong Entertainment? Su Yu's company?" "I said why it sounded so familiar! Guo Ruoheng is also from this company!"

Li Shengyu took a sip of wine and continued: "That's the Tang Zong Entertainment, the top entertainment company in the country. Director Zhang once worked in Su Yu's agency team. It's just because you are all outsiders that you don't understand the gold content of this name."

"One of Su Yu's agents?" "Holy shit! So awesome?"

Several girls widened their eyes, full of astonishment.

Who is Su Yu? It can be said that no one in the country is more popular than her now.

Film queen, TV queen, song queen, Asia-Pacific's most beautiful face, one of the bosses of Tang Zong Entertainment, the masterpiece of Goddess Nuwa, the dream of all girls that is out of reach.

Lin Mu Xue licked her lips, also feeling surging emotions, feeling for the first time that she was so close to such a big shot.

Xu An patted Li Shengyu on the shoulder and whispered: "Shengyu, let's go over and say hello."

He wasn't sure if this Director Zhang had noticed him just now, but to be safe, he still had to go over and toast.

"Let's go!" Li Shengyu nodded, picked up a Mojito, and stood up.

Looking at the expression on Lin Mu Xue's face, the corners of his mouth rose, and he felt secretly triumphant inside.

Aren't you always cold? Hehe.

Maybe I'll be famous someday too, and then let's see if you still dare to give me a cold face.

The two walked out of the booth and walked in one direction.

The four girls quickly cast their gazes over.

They saw Xu An leaning over to a woman with medium-short hair, saying something with a big smile on his face, his attitude very respectful.

Li Shengyu next to him was bent over, accompanying him with a smile.

Seeing the back of the woman opposite that Director Zhang, Lin Mu Xue frowned, feeling somewhat familiar.

Then she shook her head again; her self-awareness was still very clear.

In Magic City, she only came into contact with some "fake socialites," and in Yancheng, they were just colleagues in the company.

It was impossible to know such an awesome person.

Chen Chen asked excitedly: "Do you think Xu An can get tickets to Su Yu's concert? After all, he knows Su Yu's former agent!"

"I feel like it's tough; those tickets were sold out long ago, and I haven't heard of any scalper tickets or internal tickets."

"We can ask later; maybe it's really possible."

Lin Mu Xue was very moved.

She was developing in Yancheng; if she could get a ticket to Su Yu's concert, besides showing off, she could also film a video, and maybe she could get on the hot list again.

By the way, she could also slap the faces of her high school classmates who came to Yancheng.

Just then, Xu An walked back quickly, his face flushed, his hands trembling with nervousness.

He didn't say anything, just put down his empty glass, picked up another glass of wine, and walked over.

The four girls looked at each other.

They saw Xu An standing next to the woman opposite Director Zhang, bowing to toast.

The woman turned sideways, picked up her glass, and took a small sip.

Seeing her side profile, Lin Mu Xue's head went "buzz," and she instantly froze.

No wonder the back looked so familiar; she did indeed know this middle-aged woman!

She thought about it carefully and instantly remembered her self-introduction.

【"Ms. Zhao, Ms. Lin, I am the assistant responsible for your trip, Su Zhuyun."】 (Chapter 216)

The female assistant sent by the trust company to pick them up, and also the person who gave the 3 Hermès bags on behalf of "Ms. Su."

She had always thought that this was just an ordinary small character, a service person, and hadn't taken her seriously at all.

But... how could she be so familiar with the Artist Director of Qianmo Media, and even let Xu An go over to toast?

Did I remember wrong? Just look alike?

But this build, features, and demeanor—it should be that Assistant Su!?

The more Lin Mu Xue thought about it, the more incredible she felt, and her head was dizzy.

Not far away, Xu An and Li Shengyu said goodbye and walked toward the booth with their heads down.

The middle-aged woman who had been facing away from them also turned around and looked toward their side.

Just happened to meet the gaze of Lin Mu Xue, who was half-standing.

She smiled and nodded.

"Hiss~" Lin Mu Xue bit her lower lip hard, standing there stunned.

It was her! It really was her!

This...

Returning to the booth, Li Shengyu still had an excited flush on her face. She set her glass down heavily and said excitedly, "The people over there just now—not only was our Director Zhang there, but also the leaders from the artist management department of Tang Zong Entertainment!"

"Is it that woman with her hair pinned up?"

"Mm, she is a real big shot; even our Director Zhang is very polite."

Lin Mu Xue slumped in the booth, biting her lip tightly, her head "buzzing," and she didn't know what to say at all.

Tang Zong Entertainment! The entertainment media company with the highest commercial performance in the country!

During her time at Rongxin Venture Capital, she had heard colleagues in the Investment Department talk about it many times.

If she could be reborn back to 2017, the best way to get rich would be to invest in Tang Zong Entertainment.

In six years, it had grown from a small company that couldn't even complete its Series A financing into a domestic behemoth.

Its shareholders were all top domestic and foreign investment consortiums, such as Jingwu Capital, Smile Capital, Kate Trust, etc.

How could a manager of such a behemoth company be an assistant at a trust company?

This isn't scientific!?

Just then, Xu An and Li Shengyu stood up with a "thud": "Director Zhang! Director Su!"

Several girls turned their heads and saw the two middle-aged women walking toward them, and quickly stood up as well.

In the booth, only Lin Mu Xue, who was still lowering her head and dazed, remained.

Su Zhuyun hung her hands by her sides, her voice gentle and powerful: "Good evening, Ms. Lin, I didn't expect to run into you here."

In an instant, gazes fell on Lin Mu Xue, who was sitting.

The expressions on the faces of Xu An, Chen Chen, and others were somewhat stagnant.

Lin Mu Xue bit her lip hard, gradually coming back to her senses, a red tide surging on her face.

However, under the red lights of the terrace, it wasn't conspicuous.

Regardless of how she suddenly became a manager at Tang Zong Entertainment, for her now, there was nothing more important than showing off.

She calmed her emotions, tried to keep calm as she stood up, and pretended to be indifferent: "So it's Assistant Su; no wonder I felt you looked familiar just now. Good evening."

Su Zhuyun looked at her meaningfully, her gaze sweeping over the Hermès on her hand, and smiled: "I invited friends out to relax today; I didn't expect to run into you. Would you like to have a drink together?"

Her attitude was very sincere and respectful, and her speech was appropriate and gentle.

Lin Mu Xue felt like she was floating, involuntarily raising her chin, her vanity satisfied as never before.

The few people around were all frightened by this scene, standing stunned.

The bar's DJ happened to switch to a passionate BGM.

Seeing the dumbfounded and incredulous expressions of Chen Chen and other "old friends," Lin Mu Xue couldn't help but dub for their exclamation: "Emperor Empress Mu Xue is terrifyingly strong~"

The flames were burning!

She smoothed her long hair blown by the wind, and her expression gradually became cold.

Come on! I, Lin Mu Xue, am terrifyingly strong this season!

She smiled and said: "Then let's have a drink together."

With her high heels making a "tap-tap" sound, Lin Mu Xue twisted her slender waist and left the booth, following Su Zhuyun to sit down.

Xu An and Li Shengyu looked at each other, both seeing the shock in each other's eyes.

Although they didn't know this Director Su, according to Director Zhang's introduction just now, she was definitely a big shot in the Artist Agency Department of Tang Zong Entertainment.

Tang Zong Entertainment wasn't a small company like Qianmo Media.

It was the gold-master father and behemoth that all domestic artists needed to look up to.

This Xiao Xue's background is so terrifying!

Xu An's eyes flickered, his heartbeat getting faster and faster.

If he could climb this high branch, his path to superstardom would be stable!

Su Zhuyun helped Lin Mu Xue pour a glass of wine: "Ms. Lin, I wonder if you still remember our CEO Mo."

"CEO Mo? Which CEO Mo?" Lin Mu Xue showed a confused look on her face.

Su Zhuyun smiled, took a business card out of her pocket, and handed it over: "It seems Ms. Lin is a noble person who forgets things easily."

Lin Mu Xue took the business card in surprise, her expression instantly dazed, her whole body icy cold.

【Tang Zong Entertainment Co., Ltd., CEO, Mo Xiang Wan】
