92: Chapter 92 The Two Women's Appointment
Just as Su Nange finished settling the house, Su Yao was also in a corner of the Qiantang, waiting for her new friend to arrive.
A long-legged girl wearing jeans appeared right on time at a bus stop.
Ye Tingting had been in a good mood these past few days, so she had arranged to go shopping with Su Yao over the weekend early on.
However, both young beauties had their own little schemes.
If Su Yao stayed at home, she would be asked why she didn't go out more and spend more time with Qin Ben.
Therefore, she readily accepted Ye Tingting's invitation.
As for Ye Tingting, she felt that rather than letting Su Nange potentially take up Su Yao's weekend, she might as well "take over" Su Yao herself~~
So, sometimes, a girl's thoughts are just that mysterious.
Of course, this doesn't deny that the two girls still trusted each other. Otherwise, they wouldn't have gotten together.
The place they planned to visit was a historical and cultural district.
It is now a famous pedestrian street in the Qiantang. Young ladies dressed in Hanfu and cheongsams love to come here to take photos and check in. It is especially photogenic.
Ye Tingting had purchased a group-buy photography package and encouraged Su Yao to try it out with her.
Su Yao was half-reluctant but eventually gave in. But after the makeup and styling were finished, even Ye Tingting was stunned.
She said indignantly, "If you had been born in ancient times, you would be the type to bring ruin to a nation and its people. Even emperors would fight over you. No wonder Su Nange is so hopelessly infatuated with you."
Looking at the equally exquisite young lady in ancient costume before her, Su Yao teased back, "There weren't any girls with such long legs back then~~"
However, when the two of them were all set and standing together, no matter how they looked at it, something felt slightly off.
Su Yao: "Why do I feel like I've seen us two somewhere before?"
Su Yao's question was phrased awkwardly, but Ye Tingting, who was also looking in the mirror, understood it immediately!
Ye Tingting nodded: "Now that you mention it, I feel like I've seen it too. It seems like I saw it often during summer vacations in the past."
Oh my god, both girls realized it. Isn't this White Snake and Xiaoqing?!
Consequently, they both felt a bit shy. They hadn't felt it while inside, but once they went outdoors for the shoot, they were practically surrounded by onlookers.
It wasn't just the photographer snapping away; a crowd of passersby was also gathered around, snapping photos.
Anyone who had seen the movie "White Snake: Origin" couldn't help but exclaim that they had recreated the characters from the animation so realistically.
The already narrow bridge was packed so tightly that not even water could pass through. It made the two girls feel like they were experiencing social death.
But that's how girls are; you can't just judge them by their appearance. Who doesn't like beautiful photos?
When they returned to the photo studio, they looked through the photographer's raw files and started to feel a bit of regret, blaming themselves for being too reserved earlier. Otherwise, the shooting effect would have been even better!
However, the studio owner felt that he had hit the jackpot.
He ran over to tell Ye Tingting and Su Yao, "Young ladies, I won't charge you for this photography session. Plus, I'll give you all the retouched photos from today for free!"
"But would you allow this shop to use your photos for promotion?"
"Don't worry, it will only be used for our studio's promotional brochures."
Ye Tingting and Su Yao exchanged glances; they both felt a small sense of accomplishment. If they want to use them, let them. Anyway, they didn't know how many passersby had snapped photos of them on the street earlier.
The key was that a photography package was quite expensive, and the money saved would be enough for a very good dinner that night. Since the owner also promised to give them all the digital negatives, they felt they had made a profit.
Thus, the two sat down in a coffee shop, too busy to even drink anything. They huddled together excitedly, holding their phones and discussing the photos on the screens.
Su Yao felt that Ye Tingting's decision today was absolutely right. The relationship between the two girls became even closer.
Just as they were full of joy, a handsome man suddenly walked up to them. It looked like he was coming specifically for them.
Su Yao noticed him first and tapped Ye Tingting, who was still lost in thought. Both girls looked up, making the man opposite them feel like he was about to melt.
The man looked to be in his 30s and introduced himself: "Hello, young ladies. I am Zhang Lun from Wanzhou Pictures. This is my business card."
Ye Tingting took it and saw that this person was actually the director of the Actor Development Department at Wanzhou Pictures.
The man explained his purpose, saying he had just noticed the excellent image and temperament of the two young ladies. He was in charge of actor development, which was a function similar to a talent scout, digging up potential new talent for the company.
Zhang Lun asked, "Are you two interested in coming to Wanzhou Pictures to fulfill a star dream?"
Su Yao was not familiar with Wanzhou Pictures, but Ye Tingting had heard of it. It had developed rapidly in recent years, but it belonged to Shanghai. It was a big capital firm. She didn't expect it to have come all the way to Zhijiang Province to seize the market.
Su Yao liked taking photos herself, but to be some kind of star? She had no interest and decisively refused first.
A flash of regret crossed the man's eyes; this girl's naturally obedient and gentle image was truly the rarest type in the entertainment industry.
As for Ye Tingting, she was already a little fan of Liu Yuan, so she naturally refused decisively as well.
Zhang Lun found it strange. Were they pretending? Or did they really not want to be in the spotlight?
In this fickle society, who wouldn't want to be a big star? Otherwise, where would all these young internet celebrities making short videos come from? Wanzhou Pictures, which was behind Zhang Lun, didn't even think much of those internet celebrities.
Zhang Lun wanted to continue persuading them, but the two girls' attitudes were very firm. They were just out shopping today and didn't want to talk about these things.
Zhang Lun had no choice but to walk out of the coffee shop. Then he made a call back: "Boss, these two young girls actually refused me."
On the other end of the line, a charmingly evil man stood in a skyscraper hundreds of meters high. Beneath his feet flowed the rushing waters of the Huangpu River.
He smiled: "Don't be impatient. They have the capital to be proud. Such exquisite women require time. You continue to stay in the Qiantang. Keep a close eye on them."
Zhang Lun replied: "Yes, Young Master!"
The charmingly evil man added another instruction: "By the way, the Qiantang is Liu Yuan's territory, so we shouldn't go too far. When you have time, go and greet Miss Liu!"
"Don't lose face for us Shanghai people in terms of etiquette."
Zhang Lun replied solemnly: "Understood, Young Master."
After hanging up, the charmingly evil man turned back from the floor-to-ceiling window. He did not put down the phone he was holding.
Although he had monolid eyes, it added a unique charm to his handsome face.
The man looked at his phone screen; this guy's screensaver was actually a woman with an extremely pure appearance.
He muttered to himself: "Liu Yuan, oh Liu Yuan, I like you so much. But you have rejected me so many times!"
"Alright then, since that's the case, don't blame me for adding some heavy ingredients for you! Let's see how your new play will be released!"
Speaking of Liu Yuan, she had been bored all day. She didn't have any classes today, and she didn't want to attend those boring parties.
Suddenly, the woman realized, I've already done that with you, so why am I still spending so much money to take your classes? I must really be sick in the head.
But upon reflection, never mind, it's better not to break some balances. Especially now, when she was still working hard for that position. Liu Yuan herself wondered if she was being too accommodating to that guy.
And that guy didn't even take the initiative to call! Hey, why not? Just as she finished complaining, the phone rang.
The woman in love immediately put on a smiling face: "Nange, did everything go smoothly today?"
On the other end of the line: "I went to buy some seafood this afternoon, but I can't cook it in my little shack. How about I borrow your kitchen?"
Liu Yuan smiled brightly. This guy clearly wanted to ask her out, but he was just acting like a stubborn mule!
"Come over quickly, I'm at home! I'm starving!"
After hanging up, Liu Yuan immediately rushed into the kitchen: "Auntie, you haven't made dinner yet, right? You can go home first; I have a guest coming! You don't need to worry about it!"
The nanny nodded in confusion: "Okay, Eldest Miss, I'll be leaving then!"
Liu Yuan watched the nanny go down in the elevator. Then she immediately rushed into the bedroom and tore open the package that had arrived two days ago.
Her little face suddenly flushed red: "Is this 'ingredient' going to be too strong? Can I handle it?"
