Chapter 376: The Kiss of a Top-Tier Female Idol

~22 min read 4,229 words

Shenzhen Bay, Liu Qingning Building.

In the spacious and bright negotiation room, the decor is modern and stylish, dotted with various green plants and flowers.

"Pleasure doing business with you, Bei Yuwei. I wish your new drama great success!"

"Thank you, Director Wang. It is an honor to participate in your company's brand campaign this time." Bei Bei Yuwei smiled as she shook hands with Wang Miao, the Brand Director of Liu Qingning Technology.

Liu Qingning Technology is about to launch a brand-new AI search application, Qingmi AI, and she is here to film a promotional video.

Once the application goes live, it will be used for placement on short-video platforms.

Afterward, there will be a series of coordinated promotions; Liu Qingning Technology will even customize an AI intelligent agent for her to interact with users.

Collaborating with a new tech unicorn like Liu Qingning Technology is actually very beneficial for her, and it can also increase her positive image exposure.

It belongs to a very high-quality commercial endorsement activity.

Immediately following this, accompanied by Wang Miao, Bei Bei Yuwei and her team walked out of the negotiation room.

They took the elevator directly to the underground parking garage.

A few minutes later, the black Toyota Alphard slowly pulled away.

Bei Bei Yuwei leaned back against the soft seat, her graceful figure wrapped in an off-the-shoulder dress, looking completely relaxed.

Her manager, Sister Bing, whispered from the side: "Bei Yuwei, I just received news that President Mo has arrived in Shenzhen and is currently at the Shenzhen branch of Juxing Huicui. This is a good opportunity."

The GP of Juxing Huicui is Su Tang Investment Management Company.

The actual controller is Su Yu, and Mo Sister Xiang Wan, as Su Yu's former manager and close friend, also serves as an advisory committee member at this investment company, responsible for supervision and assisting in decision-making.

"Ah?" Bei Bei Yuwei paused, a surge of intense surprise erupting on her face. She turned to her assistant in the passenger seat: "Xiao Li, contact the fundraising department of Juxing Huicui. Tell them I still have some questions about this round of the fund and would like to go over to understand it better."

"Okay, I'll do it right away." Assistant Xiao Li responded, quickly picking up her phone to dial the number.

Manager Sister Bing patted her hand: "Don't be too eager for quick success; it's better to take it one step at a time. First, build a good relationship with President Mo."

"I know, Sister Bing." Bei Bei Yuwei nodded, her eyes flashing with thoughtful light.

Her rise to fame relied on the suitability of her roles, unparalleled luck, and the powerful media resources of Tang Zong Entertainment and Star Cloud International.

Similar traffic stars like her are born every year.

Most often, like a meteor, after causing a brief and massive impact, they gradually lose their heat.

Their true status in the entertainment industry is not high.

Within Tang Zong Entertainment, she is just a tool for making quick money.

At the same time, countless covetous eyes and prying gazes follow.

Through managers, brand owners, and various other channels, there are all sorts of hints and harassment every day.

Many are big shots, powerful figures, and leaders she cannot afford to offend, and there is even an independent director of Tang Zong Entertainment.

She cannot afford to offend any of them.

Currently, she still has fame and significant commercial value, so she can still keep to herself.

But once the heat of the drama "Leisurely Listening to the Falling Rain" fades, if there are no works to carry the traffic, her popularity will naturally and gradually cool down.

By then, with her ordinary background and shallow qualifications, her ending will likely not be pleasant, just like those predecessors.

When it comes down to it, her foundation is too thin; her time in the industry is short, and her accumulation of connections and works is insufficient.

Fortunately, an accidental opportunity allowed her to overhear a call from Su Yu's assistant, seeing a chance to change her destiny.

Thus, she appeared in the "He He Yiyi" livestream without hesitation, helping Songmei Apparel gain a wave of traffic.

Facts proved that she bet correctly.

? C〇

Since then, she has obtained three high-quality endorsements and a precious movie contract.

Although it is only a supporting role, leaping from a female second lead in a xianxia web drama to an important supporting role in a major movie is a huge boost to her status.

She was even invited by Juxing Huicui to become an LP.

And all of this, it is said, is because of President Mo's arrangement.

Now that President Mo happens to be in Shenzhen, she must seize this opportunity to bring their relationship closer.

Once she has President Mo as a big backer, at least she won't have to worry about the unspoken rules that could descend at any time.

If even Mo Sister Xiang Wan cannot block them, then she can only accept her fate.

She sighed.

A face appeared in Bei Bei Yuwei's mind.

The President of Songmei Apparel, Tang Song.

She has watched all the short videos of Songmei Apparel.

In one of the "President Series Videos," she saw his face.

Although it was just a flash, she remembered it firmly.

President Tang...

Regarding the content of the call she overheard from Su Yu's assistant, she hasn't even told her manager, all because of the name "President Tang."

To be able to make Assistant Cheng use such a respectful tone when speaking to Su Yu and call him "President Tang," his background must be significant; at the very least, he should be at the company director level.

If only she could build a good relationship with him.

Unfortunately, he is in Yancheng. If she were to deliberately run over there, combined with the previous "He He Yiyi Incident," it would definitely expose her little intentions.

By then, things would truly be out of control.

Huiyun Center.

"Bei Yuwei, we're here." Manager Sister Bing reminded: "Don't say too much to President Mo; too much is as bad as too little!"

"I know, Sister Bing, don't worry."

Taking a deep breath, Bei Bei Yuwei put on her mask and sunglasses, following her assistant out of the car.

The investment is in her private name; if the manager followed her inside, it might let President Mo discover their little intentions, leading to resentment.

Walking through the office building lobby, led by Juxing Huicui staff, the two took a high-speed elevator upstairs.

As the two walked into the office area.

Gazes gathered, and many employees excitedly whispered and discussed.

Although celebrities appear in the company from time to time, Bei Bei Yuwei is currently very popular.

A single update on Weibo about eating has over a hundred thousand comments.

Naturally, she would be more of a topic of conversation.

The three arrived at the private negotiation area.

Bei Bei Yuwei said with a face full of astonishment: "What? Our President Mo is also in the company? Really?"

"Yes, that's right." The fundraising department employee smiled gently: "President Mo arrived in Shenzhen this morning and came here for a meeting this afternoon, which just ended."

"That..." Bei Bei Yuwei bit her red lips, her face full of anticipation: "Supervisor Zhao, President Mo has been very caring toward me in the company, and I've always wanted to find an opportunity to express my gratitude. Could you take me to see President Mo first?"

As an actress, Bei Bei Yuwei's acting skills are quite solid; that kind of surprise, nervousness, and admiration were perfectly expressed by her.

Coupled with her current soaring fame and the upcoming fundraising matters.

Supervisor Zhao could not refuse at all and tactfully led her toward the board office.

"Thank you, Supervisor Zhao, for your hard work. I'll come find you in the T3 conference room later."

"Okay."

Watching the other person's figure disappear, Bei Bei Yuwei took off her mask and sunglasses.

Taking a deep breath, a docile and sweet smile appeared on her face.

"Knock, knock, knock—"

"Please come in."

Pushing open the solid wood office door, she saw Mo Sister Xiang Wan, who had looked up.

Dressed in a finely tailored suit skirt, her makeup was exquisite and capable, and her deep eyes held a sharp light, as if they could see through people's hearts.

"Bei Bei Yuwei?" Mo Sister Xiang Wan put down the pen in her hand, leaned back, and crossed her legs.

As their eyes met, Bei Bei Yuwei's heart instantly jumped to her throat, and her fingers trembled slightly.

The aura of this President Mo was truly too terrifying.

Moreover, as the President of Tang Zong Entertainment, a listed company with a market value of 80 billion, Mo Sister Xiang Wan has always had the persona of an iron-blooded businesswoman in the company, very strong and decisive.

Once she makes a decision, no one dares to oppose it.

For Bei Bei Yuwei, who has only just established a foundation, such a big shot must be looked up to.

"It's me, good afternoon, President Mo." Bei Bei Yuwei tried hard to remain calm and smiling, her attitude respectful: "I just happened to come to Juxing Huicui to handle investment matters, and I didn't expect you to be here too, so I came over to say hello."

Mo Sister Xiang Wan nodded slightly: "You're thoughtful."

"That..." Bei Bei Yuwei's hands hung in front of her, a perfectly timed look of excitement on her face: "Thank you, President Mo, for your care. I have already received the movie script; it is the role I am best at. I am truly grateful to you, President Mo!"

"Hehe, you're welcome. Seize the opportunity well." Mo Sister Xiang Wan shook her head and smiled lightly, seeing through her intentions at a glance: "If you encounter any problems you can't solve, you can contact me directly."

Bei Bei Yuwei helped Tang Song and Su Yu by mistake, which counts as entering their line of sight, and she also has considerable potential to be tapped.

Within an appropriate range, she doesn't mind giving the other party some care.

"Thank you, President Mo!" Bei Bei Yuwei's chest heaved, her face flushed: "I won't disturb your work anymore, goodbye."

"Goodbye."

Gently closing the office door, Bei Bei Yuwei clenched her fists tightly, a surge of intense surprise flashing in her eyes.

She never expected that President Mo would actually give her a promise herself.

This counts as finding herself a protective amulet, which will be very useful at critical moments.

Trying hard to adjust her mood, Bei Bei Yuwei walked into the T3 conference room with light steps.

Immediately following, a figure stood up from the seat; it was a boy of 25 or 26.

With sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes, he was handsome, his temperament confident and unrestrained.

"Hello, Miss Bei. I am Xiang Kai, an industry analyst in the investment department and a member of this fund's operations team. If you have any questions, you can ask me directly. It's worth mentioning that you are even more beautiful in person than on the internet."

"Thank you." Bei Bei Yuwei smiled politely, having a good impression of this handsome financial elite.

Whether it was his appearance or temperament, he was outstanding and definitely deserved the title of a young talent.

"I heard that Miss Bei got the female second lead in the movie 'The Song Ends.' This is a major production; congratulations."

"Oh? How did you know?" Bei Bei Yuwei blinked in surprise.

This matter has not been officially announced to the public yet; she only just received the script.

Xiang Kai's mouth curled into a big smile: "My father works at Leteng Pictures and has a very good relationship with the director of 'The Song Ends,' Lu Baiyu."

"Ah, so that's how it is." Bei Bei Yuwei's eyes shifted, and her gaze toward the other party underwent a subtle change.

To be on good terms with a big director like Lu Baiyu, he should at least be a senior executive at Leteng.

Although Leteng Pictures cannot compare to Tang Zong Entertainment, it also has a certain influence in the industry.

After simple pleasantries, the group sat down at the conference table.

Acting the part to the end, Bei Bei Yuwei could only listen with a smile to those financial terms she didn't understand at all, nodding in agreement from time to time.

Century Zhixue Technology Co., Ltd.

Orange-red sunlight passed through the gaps in the clouds, illuminating the office.

"Da da da—" The sound of keyboard typing rang out from time to time.

Liu Liu Qingning had a smile on her face, organizing work documents while replying to Tang Song's messages.

By the way, she sent him the address for their dinner party that night.

Just then, a burst of "da da da" footsteps approached.

Liu Liu Qingning looked up and quickly stood up: "Wang Laoshi, you're here."

Although it is summer vacation now, Wang Chang, as a university professor, is usually very busy.

Recently, it might be because they are about to resign, so the other party has been staying in Shenzhen and comes to the company to look around from time to time.

"Liu Qingning, I have something to talk to you about, sit." Wang Chang patted her shoulder and sat down next to her.

Liu Liu Qingning sat up straight and said seriously: "What is it?"

Wang Chang pondered for a moment and said gently: "You and Qingfeng and the others will soon receive the equity transfer fees. For you, this is not a small number.

To help you manage this wealth better, I asked a friend to contact a large private equity fund company with a strong background.

They are about to issue a new fund, mainly targeting the fields of artificial intelligence and new energy; this is a good opportunity."

Listening to the somewhat familiar introduction, Liu Liu Qingning blinked and asked: "Wang Laoshi, what is the name of this company?"

"Juxing Huicui!" Wang Chang smiled: "It's the investment company spearheaded by Su Yu, with Tang Zong Entertainment and Jingwu Capital behind it."

Liu Liu Qingning smiled and said: "What a coincidence. This morning, Xiang Kai just invited me to attend their theme party this Friday. I already agreed, just wanting to go and understand this new fund."

"Uh..." Wang Chang paused: "Xiang Kai?"

"Yes, he previously worked at a new energy factory and joined Juxing Huicui last year as an industry analyst."

"What a coincidence." Wang Chang's eyes flickered, and she nodded: "That's good, I'll go tell Qingfeng and the others."

After speaking, she stood up and walked inside, entering the office directly.

Picking up her phone, she dialed a number: "Hello, President Mo."

"I have already told Liu Qingning, but things are a bit unexpected."

"Yes, Xiang Kai is indeed Liu Qingning's university classmate, just not in the same major. I knew very little about him before and didn't know he had joined Juxing Huicui."

"Okay, I understand, bye."

Huiyun Center, Juxing Huicui.

Bei Bei Yuwei thanked him a few times and stood up to say goodbye.

Xiang Kai's eyes flickered, and he handed over his business card: "Miss Bei, if you have any more questions, feel free to contact me at any time. Also, a university classmate of mine is your fan and insisted I get an autograph from you. Is that convenient?"

Bei Bei Yuwei took the business card and said readily: "Of course, no problem."

After speaking, she nodded to the assistant beside her.

Assistant Xiao Li opened her bag, took out an exquisite signed photo, and handed it over.

"Thank you." Xiang Kai revealed a handsome smile: "I look forward to Miss Bei's wonderful performance at the theme banquet on Friday night."

"Okay, goodbye." Bei Bei Yuwei waved with a smile.

The assistant beside her quickly handed over the mask and sunglasses.

Returning to the underground parking garage.

Bei Bei Yuwei leaned back against the seat and let out a long breath.

Manager Sister Bing whispered: "How was it?"

"Perfect!" Bei Bei Yuwei made an OK gesture, a smile she couldn't suppress appearing on her face: "It seems President Mo is indeed paying attention to me."

"That's great, you must seize this opportunity."

Bei Bei Yuwei nodded and gently closed her eyes: "Let's go back to the hotel first. I've been truly exhausted lately. There's the Juxing Huicui banquet on Friday; I might as well take advantage of this Liu Qingning Technology event to get some good rest."

Soon, the black Toyota Alphard slowly pulled away and drove toward the hotel.

This brand owner, Liu Qingning Technology, is very generous, and everything has been arranged very well. In terms of accommodation, they booked her directly into the Raffles Suite at the Raffles Shenzhen.

It is right across from the Liu Qingning Building, at Shenzhen Bay No. 1 T7, which is also where Juxing Huicui is holding its banquet.

It saved her a lot of time running around.

The sun outside the window gradually sank, covered by thick clouds.

The sky darkened.

Shenzhen Bay No. 1 T7 slowly came into view.

Bei Bei Yuwei's gaze passed through the privacy glass, looking at the prosperous urban beauty outside the window.

As a local from Guangdong Province, she is no stranger to Shenzhen and once fantasized about owning a luxury home here.

Originally, after her debut from the talent show, she thought she could shine brightly, and she did have such longing.

But later, she remained lukewarm, and the company couldn't give her resources, so she gradually disappeared from the public eye.

Until her management contract was sold to Tang Zong Entertainment, and she received the script for "Leisurely Listening to the Falling Rain."

Others thought she was a lucky person who soared to the sky; no one knew how much effort she put into honing her singing and acting skills.

She even took out a loan to sign up for professional coaching classes.

She is currently at a crucial turning point in her life.

Wanting to continue in the chaotic and cruel entertainment industry is a very difficult thing.

She must seize every opportunity.

Just then, her eyes widened suddenly, and she blurted out: "Stop the car!"

The driver paused and slowly pulled the car to the side.

Sister Bing frowned: "What's wrong, Bei Yuwei?"

Bei Bei Yuwei didn't answer her immediately but stared intently at a figure outside the window.

He was carrying a shopping bag, walking casually on the sidewalk outside Shenzhen Bay No. 1.

His tall figure and undulating side profile were particularly eye-catching.

Seeming to feel the car stop beside him, his gaze swept toward this side.

His handsome face happened to meet hers through the privacy glass.

"Thump, thump—" The sound of her heartbeat echoed in Bei Bei Yuwei's ears.

Fate had favored her once again.

She actually encountered that "Tang Song" she had been thinking about day and night in Shenzhen.

"Sister Bing, you guys go back to the hotel first; I have something to handle." Bei Bei Yuwei said while putting on her mask and sunglasses again.

"What is it?" Sister Bing said with a serious tone: "Bei Yuwei, your popularity is too high right now; it's easy for problems to arise!"

"I can handle it very quickly, and this is only two or three hundred meters from the hotel; it'll be fine."

After Bei Bei Yuwei finished speaking, she opened the car door and stepped out.

Sister Bing gritted her teeth and said: "We'll wait here for you; half an hour at most, you must come back!"

"Okay!"

"Bang—" The car door was closed again.

Bei Bei Yuwei ran toward that figure.

As the distance closed, her steps slowed down more and more.

Biting her lower lip hard and taking a deep breath, Bei Bei Yuwei walked straight up and walked side-by-side with him.

A delicate fragrance drifted into his nose, and a soft touch arrived; Tang Song's right arm was suddenly touched by someone.

Immediately following, a pleasant voice sounded in his ear: "Excuse me, could I trouble you for a favor?"

Tang Song turned his head and saw a woman wearing a loose T-shirt and jeans.

Although she was wearing a mask and sunglasses, from her posture, figure, and skin, one could still tell she was a beauty.

And she looked a bit familiar; it seemed he had seen her somewhere before.

"What's wrong?" Tang Song stopped his steps and looked at her in confusion.

The girl gently touched his hand and whispered: "Don't stop, let's keep walking, please."

Tang Song raised his eyebrows but chose to keep moving forward.

"It's like this..." The girl's voice was very crisp: "I'm a minor celebrity. I think I was just discovered by a fan who has been secretly following me, but he shouldn't be sure yet.

My itinerary here is strictly confidential and absolutely cannot be exposed.

Let's just pretend to be a normal couple meeting up, and you take me to walk around the commercial area of Shenzhen Bay No. 1; that way, he should dispel his suspicions."

Hearing the word "celebrity," a name appeared in Tang Song's mind.

Bei Bei Yuwei.

He was very familiar with this name; after all, she was a key character triggered by a system item.

He had watched the video of her appearing in the livestream many times, so he was actually quite familiar with her appearance.

After observing her carefully for a few moments and combining it with her voice, he could immediately confirm that it was definitely her.

However, he didn't believe that such a top-tier celebrity would just grab a random passerby to pose as a boyfriend because she was afraid of being discovered by a fan.

As thoughts raced through his mind, Tang Song cleared his thoughts and said with a smile: "Okay, no problem."

"Thank you." After Bei Bei Yuwei finished speaking, she reached out and wrapped her arms around his, pressing her firm chest against his arm.

Feeling the Q-elastic touch from his arm, a strange expression appeared on Tang Song's face.

Because it was summer, Bei Bei Yuwei's T-shirt was very light and thin, and the sensation was exceptionally clear.

"May I ask what to call you?"

"Tang Song."

"Okay, thank you, Brother Tang Song." Bei Bei Yuwei gently shook his arm.

The two chatted like this, passed through the green area, and walked straight toward the mall.

First, they browsed a clothing store, then bought two takeaway coffees and light meals at a cafe.

Bei Bei Yuwei leaned on him, whispering to him about topics like clothing and coffee, acting very intimate and natural, just like a normal young couple.

After walking for a full twenty minutes.

Bei Bei Yuwei pulled him into a hidden stairwell and whispered: "Thank you, Brother Tang Song, it's fine now. I really troubled you today."

Tang Song smiled lightly: "You're welcome, Miss Bei Bei Yuwei."

"Ah, you recognized me..."

"Of course, you've been very popular lately, and I've watched your 'Leisurely Listening to the Falling Rain'."

Bei Bei Yuwei smiled, reached out with her onion-white fingers to pinch the edge of her mask, and took it off her ears.

Her silky long hair swayed slightly, her lips were naturally red, and her fair skin glowed slightly under the lights, delicate as mutton-fat jade.

Touching the large sunglasses on the bridge of her nose, Bei Bei Yuwei said softly: "How about a photo together? It counts as a bit of fate."

"Okay." Tang Song's slightly raised mouth carried a faint smile, silently watching Bei Bei Yuwei's performance.

Come to think of it, she also counts as his employee.

Being able to be selected by a system item to participate in the opportunity mission for Songmei Apparel, she must also have intersections with the two game characters, Su Yu and Mo Sister Xiang Wan.

Looking at it this way, her flirting and flattery also count as normal reactions.

Bei Bei Yuwei took her phone out of her pocket, opened the camera, and wrapped her arms around Tang Song's arm again.

"Cheese."

"Click—"

"Let's take another one."

Bei Bei Yuwei looked at Tang Song's handsome side profile, and before pressing the shutter button, she stood on her tiptoes and kissed him lightly on the lips.

"Click—" The scene was frozen.

While Tang Song was stunned, Bei Bei Yuwei quickly put away her phone and put on her mask.

She took a cup of coffee from his hand and said in Cantonese with a smile: "Thank you for the coffee, handsome, bye-bye."

After speaking, she pushed open the iron door of the stairwell and walked out with big strides, leaving Tang Song with a graceful back view.

Walking out of the commercial area of Shenzhen Bay No. 1, the sky had gradually darkened.

Bei Bei Yuwei recalled the scenes from just now, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise.

Must say, he is truly charming, and his personality is very gentle.

If she must sacrifice herself for "art" in the future, why couldn't it be him?

Then next, how can she let Miss Su Yu see the intimate photo of her and him? ===== CHAPTER 377 =====
