Chapter 429: She seemed to be surrounded by a halo.
Zheng Qian: ???
"How did you know that I like buying things for girls?"
"Hmm... that actually sounds about right."
Actually, not long after Zheng Qian left, Wei Rusi woke up. At the time, she was so furious that she even wanted to fight Zheng Qian. Fortunately, Su Yuanshuang held her back and talked her through it, saying that Zheng Qian was just desperate to save her.
Besides, he didn't see anything he shouldn't have; she had covered herself with a bath towel immediately.
After this persuasion, Wei Rusi calmed down a little.
However, her Favorability toward Zheng Qian inevitably decreased.
The hotel they were staying at this time was not in the most prosperous part of Shanghu, but rather a place similar to the 798 Art District in Yanjing. The surrounding artistic atmosphere was very rich, making it a place young people really enjoyed.
The group wandered around, not sure what to eat for a moment.
"Please, don't do this. I've already paid. Why do you still want to drive me away?"
"This art exhibition is really important to me!"
"I've prepared for such a long, long time, just looking forward to this day..."
Suddenly, their eyes were drawn to a girl.
She was wearing a pure white dress, as if she were an angel unstained by dust. Her exquisite face looked as if it were carved from jade. Under the sunlight, she seemed to radiate an aura.
The dress was long, extending to her calves. Wearing a pair of white socks and sneakers, her entire outfit was pure white.
Zheng Qian couldn't help but stare in a daze.
Wei Rusi was even more resentful in her heart; this scoundrel Zheng Qian couldn't keep his feet moving whenever he saw a beautiful woman.
He didn't have a shred of remorse. He had just offended her this morning, and now he was staring straight at another beauty. Is it that I'm not pretty enough, or... Wait, at this moment, Wei Rusi suddenly thought of a very critical question.
She vaguely remembered hearing Su Yuanshuang say that Zheng Qian couldn't find her in his own room, so he came to Su Yuanshuang's room to look for her.
Then...
How did Zheng Qian know she wasn't in her room?
Why did he have the key card to her room?
???
The more Wei Rusi thought about it, the angrier she became. Just as she was preparing to have a good battle with Zheng Qian, she suddenly froze. Because the girl in front of her... was really somewhat familiar, as if she had seen her somewhere before...
Several men in suits were directing workers to start taking down the paintings in the art gallery.
"Miss Yan Churan, we respect you too, but you see... no one has bought your paintings for 3 consecutive days, and we will refund you the penalty fee for the temporary cancellation of the exhibition. Here, take this 50,000 yuan."
As he spoke, he handed a stack of money to Yan Churan.
Yan Churan's pure face was full of helplessness and grievance, and two lines of clear tears fell.
She didn't even look at the money offered. Biting her lip tightly, she said, "Manager Zhang, please help me! According to our agreement, my art exhibition still has 3 days left! Friends have already helped me find the media to promote it these past two days! And... even if you give me this 50,000, it's no use to me. I've spent almost all my savings; I don't have enough to rent another venue to hold an art exhibition!"
The man stuffed the money into Yan Churan's hand, not allowing for any refusal, and shook his head. "No, the boss has given orders. We need to clear the venue immediately because the person who is holding the next exhibition is arriving, and their things need to be set up quickly."
"This 50,000 yuan is what they paid as compensation. Little girl, even if you sue, it's useless. Just let it go."
Zheng Qian and the others were not far away.
They could basically hear the general situation.
It seemed someone had cut in line. This art exhibition seemed very important to Yan Churan, holding special significance. But the boss was willing to risk breach of contract just to force her away and arrange for the next person.
It seems that person paid a lot.
Just then, a pink Ferrari 488 drove over in an extremely arrogant manner, blocking the entrance to the exhibition hall.
The car door opened, and a pair of alluring black-silk-clad legs appeared before everyone. The girl was wearing oversized sunglasses that covered almost her entire face. But one could still tell from her silhouette that she must be quite attractive.
Wearing a tight-fitting short dress, it really made one worry that a careless movement would reveal an imaginative scene.
Immediately after, a girl who dressed very much like a boy stepped out of the driver's seat.
Well, although she dressed like a handsome boy, wearing something very similar to [Brother Xi who loves taking photos], and looked quite handsome herself. But, one could just tell she was a girl.
As soon as she appeared, she wrapped her arm around the other girl's waist, very domineeringly.
"What, not done yet? The truck delivering the paintings will be here soon, don't delay my wife's time."
As she spoke, her hand even gave the girl's backside a pat.
"Hubby, you're so good!" The girl hugged her arm tightly and rubbed against her.
"Ah! So it's Mr. Zhang Lingyue... oh no, Miss Zhang Lingyue, and Miss Qingyue who is holding the art exhibition!" The staff member's face was immediately filled with fawning smiles. "Please wait a moment! We have already started making arrangements! Please go inside and rest, we will definitely have everything finished this afternoon..."
Zhang Lingyue nodded, but when she saw Yan Churan, she was clearly slightly surprised.
It seemed she hadn't expected her to be so beautiful.
More accurately, pure.
Unlike the so-called 'pure-lust' style created by current internet celebrities, this was truly pure to the extreme. It was hard to imagine that such a simple girl still existed in this world. In her eyes, it felt as if one could easily see into the depths of her heart.
Qingyue seemed a bit jealous and hugged Zhang Lingyue's arm even tighter.
"You... are you Miss Zhang Lingyue?"
Yan Churan gathered her courage and walked up, pleading, "Excuse me, could you please wait for 3 days? This art exhibition is really important to me. My only sister is sick and desperately needs money, otherwise... I really wouldn't be willing to part with these paintings! Please give me 3 more days, can you? I believe someone will definitely buy these paintings!"
Zhang Lingyue was somewhat tempted.
Not because of compassion for Yan Churan, but because she wanted to have something happen with the girl in front of her.
Well...
But Qingyue was serving her very well right now. If she agreed, she was afraid she would be unhappy. Sigh, this Qingyue's technique was really impeccable. She didn't need to move at all; she could be the electric motor the whole way.
"Hey! What do you mean? Are you trying to seduce my hubby!?"
Qingyue took off her sunglasses and glared viciously at Yan Churan.
Her originally exquisite face was slightly distorted.
It made Zheng Qian feel a wave of disgust.
Just as he was pondering whether to help Yan Churan...
"Zheng Qian, I... I have never begged you for anything. Can you... can you advance my salary for one year?"
Wei Rusi lowered her head, feeling a bit embarrassed, and said hesitantly, "Um... if that doesn't work, advancing one month is also fine. Although... although the bank hasn't approved it yet, and although the colleagues haven't arrived yet... although nothing is set in stone yet... although I just made you angry this morning... oh no..."
Well, Zheng Qian had promised her a basic annual salary of ten million USD at the time.
One month was nearly six million yuan.
But, Zheng Qian had other ideas.
