One Week Later:
It had been a few weeks since Song Sheng adjusted to his new position at Song Entertainment. Song Sheng worked as a producer, overseeing pitches for new films, investing in productions, and occasionally editing scripts. He worked closely with his grandfather, the chairman of the company, along with some of his cousins.
When he arrived, the tension felt strained. Song Sheng barely interacted with most of his family due to the relations.h.i.+p of his father straying away from them. However, most of the issues had nothing to do with the younger generations. Thus, it was easier to transition with the a.s.sistance of some of his other family members.
Now, his Grandfather Chairman Song entrusts him to take on large projects as he showed improved results in the company since he joined.
Song Sheng appeared on several sets to oversee the progress of specific productions when he received a phone call from Xiao Mei. He ignored the calls and proceeded with work. Song Sheng wondered what she had to say, but he felt the distance between them was well needed. They had not seen each other since that night in his apartment, and he spent longs hours at work trying to forget.
In the late afternoon, he returned to the office where he had a meeting with Yu Qingge, an list actress that played as the main lead on several productions with a large fanbase. Song Sheng needed her to sign a contract with Song Entertainment to appease the producers as they did not want to hire a new actress, despite Song Sheng trying to convince them.
Yu Qingge felt appalled when she heard that Song Entertainment wanted to sign her. Her manager spent long nights trying to convince her to attend the meeting, despite wanting to join top Entertainment companies like Empire Entertainment and Diamond Entertainment. She was a celebrity, and it only fitted to work with the high production companies.
Her manager forced Yu Qingge to attend, so she wore an outfit that did not scream success and paired it with sungla.s.ses.
When she walked in, the conference room was simple with gla.s.s walls. Yu Qingge walked in and waited with her manager. After waiting for five minutes, several people walked in. Yu Qingge turned around after observing the room and was breathless when she saw the tall, handsome man that stood in the middle. He approached her and said, "h.e.l.lo Miss Yu, I am Song Sheng. It is great to meet you."
Yu Qingge removed her sungla.s.ses stunned by his handsome face through her tinted frames.
"h.e.l.lo Mr. Song," she said with utmost curiosity.
Song Sheng was someone Yu Qingge has heard from mentions. But she did not realize how young and beautiful his features were. He had jet-black hair that spilled over his beautiful golden-brown eyes; they almost looked like hazel. She stood rooted when Song Sheng sat to take his seat.
For the next half hour, they discussed business, and considering the facts, Song Entertainment provided her with a good contract with free time, exclusive event opportunities, and a steady income. However, Yu Qingge mainly focused on the reserved man who spoke. Judging by his status, features, and age, she was confident that he had a woman in his life, but she could not determine yet.
"Miss Yu, would you like to join Song Entertainment?" Song Sheng asked. After skimming through the contract, she responded, "Yes, I agree to the terms," before signing the pages. "Thank you for considering us," said he.
Song Sheng stood up and left the conference room. Yu Qingge stared at the back of his silhouette. She knew that she was a beautiful woman, and regardless if he had a woman, she would gladly steal him away.
Yu Qingge rose and walked out of the room, shortly after Song Sheng and his colleagues. A delicate-looking you woman who stood confident and bold approached Song Sheng without an escort. The man"s reserved and cold face flashed something like surprise. The woman was beautiful with soft brown waves for hair, and a round face. She held a briefcase in hand, and she looked like someone of a great profession.
Quickly, the woman followed Song Sheng into a private room and closed the door behind them. It appeared that Yu Qingge found her compet.i.tor. And although the girl seemed smart, she seemed particularly dull. Therefore it would not take long to seduce the handsome-looking producer.
Song Sheng"s meetings were all done, and he was able to go home. When he left the conference room, he caught sight of Qian Meigui. It had only been a week, but something about her changed. She seemed to be self-a.s.sured and bold with her posture and not afraid of any encounters. From the first look, she did not appear to talk to him about something other than business. Therefore, he said "Follow me," and guided her into a private room.
As soon as they entered, the atmosphere was awkward and tense, but she immediately set her briefcase down on the table. She opened and pulled out the doc.u.ments, and said: "Sheng, I need your help."
