Yu Minmin could only smile and tell him it was alright.
But deep down, she was already feeling unhappy. She felt that Feng Shaoqing was just using her.
The board of directors looked at Yu Minmin, continually smiling and complimenting her.
“Madam President, you look a lot better in person than on TV.”
“I watched your wedding. After that, you kept such a low profile.”
“It is really our greatest honor for you to grace our company.”
“It’s all thanks to our Young Master Feng. Who would have thought that he could be cla.s.smates with Madam President? Really…”
Yu Minmin heard this and finally could not hold it in any longer. She said to all of them, “Actually, I only came here to settle some work matters. Okay, someone is waiting for me outside. Please take your time here. I’ll be on my way.”
Everybody immediately stood up and sent her off.
Yu Minmin had to converse for a long time before she told them to stop following her.
Everybody said, “Alright, alright. Let Young Master Feng send Ma’am off.”
Feng Shaoqing followed Yu Minmin.
He looked at Yu Minmin and said, “Minmin.”
Yu Minmin turned back to look at him.
Feng Shaoqing said, “I’m sorry. You must be angry.”
Yu Minmin adjusted her hair. “No, it’s just… What exactly is going on?”
Feng Shaoqing looked at Yu Minmin, “I’m sorry. There’s an equity war in the company and I can’t win against my uncle because I’m too young. Thus, since the board of directors was here and you were coming, I suddenly thought of letting them see you. I wanted them to know that I’m not empty-handed. At least I have… Minmin, I have you as my ex-cla.s.smate. I believe that you’ll support me.”
Yu Minmin sighed and looked at him, “This is actually not very useful. I’m just Gu Jingming’s wife. I can’t be of any help to you.”
Feng Shaoqing said, “I know. I only wanted them to see you too. There will be some impact more or less. You don’t know how powerful these two words, Madam President, are. Just letting them see you is enough. How can I actually make you do something? This is just my personal matter and I will not truly implicate you.”
Yu Minmin continued looking at him and said, “Never mind. Since you already told me this, how can I not help you? But I hope you can give me a heads up in the future.”
“Yes. This was also very sudden for me. I didn’t know that the board of directors would be here today, really.”
Feng Shaoqing looked at Yu Minmin who could only say plainly, “It’s okay. I’ll be on my way then. Lin Che is still waiting for me.”
Watching Yu Minmin leave, Feng Shaoqing then grunted.
Behind him, his secretary sauntered over.
“Young Master Feng, she’s so easily duped.”
Feng Shaoqing smiled, “I told you that she always carried a torch for me. This kind of feeling won’t disappear suddenly.”
“Young Master Feng is really too impressive. Even Madam President carries a torch for you.”
“Just wait and see. She’ll help me out sooner or later. As long as I ask, she will not reject me.”
“That’s great! Young Master Feng will be unstoppable in the future. If she can help us get some business from Glazed Tile Palace, we will not lose our faces.”
“This will take some time.” Young Master Feng wrapped his arm around the secretary’s waist and they walked back in together.

When Yu Minmin walked out, Lin Che saw that she did not look so good. She asked, “What’s wrong?”
Yu Minmin shook her head, “It’s nothing. I just think that Feng Shaoqing is different from last time.”
“Huh?”
Yu Minmin sighed and felt regretful. “People will change but the more unrecognizable someone you know becomes, the worse it feels. Perhaps I’m being too sensitive. I have changed a lot too. Why do I still care about how others change? But… Sigh. He is an old cla.s.smate anyway. If he asks me for my help, I’ll definitely do what I can. I just hate that he was using me without any warning.”
Lin Che held her and asked, “He made use of you?”
Yu Minmin told her about what happened.
Lin Che said, “You are Madam President after all. There are plenty of people who will want to use you. You need to slowly get used to it.”
Yu Minmin shrugged her shoulders. “Thankfully, I don’t appear in front of the public often. This Madam President is dispensable. Otherwise, who knows how much more troublesome it would be?”
The two of them returned to their own company. Their staff saw them and quickly delivered some doc.u.ments. On the top was some gossip that just came out about Lin Che. The speculations took up the headlines and people were refres.h.i.+ng for updates continuously.
Yu Minmin said speechlessly, “Don’t tell me this is all intentionally done? Why is it only this news making the headlines?”
Lin Che asked, “But what’s the point of doing such a thing?”
“Nothing for now. But who knows what’s going to happen next?”
“Okay…”
“Oh right. We previously signed the contract with Eric’s company for the cosmetics endors.e.m.e.nt. There is a Hollywood movie looking for you. Take a look. They said that they are open to discussions.”
“Hollywood? No way…”
Yu Minmin replied, “It’s probably because they saw that Eric hired you. It’s his first time hiring an Asian face. These cosmetics endors.e.m.e.nts used to always be Caucasian faces. His first Asian engagement must have attracted Hollywood’s attention.”
“So what should I do now?”
“If possible, we’ll send you over for the audition.”
Lin Che looked at the name of the movie and realized that it was a remake of a recently popular novel.
It was a movie about vampires. This genre was more popular overseas. Furthermore, the novel was very hot and had more influence in the country.
Yu Minmin said, “They also probably considered that the box office in our country is more important now. If they included a C Nation celebrity, their box office would be better. They believe that you have influence in C Nation, so they want to see if your acting can match up.”
“Alright…” Lin Che looked at the type. She really had not acted this type of role before.
It was a melancholic image as before she was turned into a vampire, she was a virgin. Thus, she did not dare to interact with men. After that, it was even more tragic as she viewed all men as her enemy. When the male lead fell in love with her, she did not dare to look into her own heart. Thus, she and the vampire hunter male lead had a love-hate relations.h.i.+p.
This kind of dark movie was most loved by Hollywood. It tackled the weaknesses in human nature and the roles were not easy to control.
Lin Che said, “Looks like I really need to think this through.”
“Yes. Take a look first. If you want, you can try out at the audition.”
“Yeah. I’m afraid of getting reprimanded if I act badly.”
“Yes, and it’s your first Hollywood movie. If you act badly even in your audition, it will affect your subsequent a.s.signments.”
