Chapter 135 â Should I Be A CEO, An Oil Painting Artist, A Ballerina, Or An Actress? (2)
Compared to Zhong Chi, Zhong Yuhuan was a much easier boss and a pretty one at that. Who didnât like to work for a boss like her? Hearing her words, Assistant Zhao couldnât help but smile at her before he put down her bag and took off.
âWhereâs Li Jinyuan?â asked Zhong Yuhuan while biting into a strawberry.
She didnât ask how Huo Chengming found out about any of this.
âI donât know.â Huo Chengming still didnât look up but put a round macadamia nut into Zhong Yuhuanâs mouth. It had a strong milky taste to it.
âI donât like this one,â said Zhong Yuhuan after she chewed it a couple of times, cringing her nose.
Huo Chengming suddenly placed his open hand in front of her and said to her, âSpit it out if you donât like it. Iâll peel an almond for you.â
Zhong Yuhuan blinked at his thick and wide palm. Spit where? Spit into his hand?
She couldnât bring herself to do it. She pushed away his hand, chewed it a few more time,s and swallowed it. âNo, thatâs too wasteful.â
Huo Chengming didnât say much after that, but he did peel an almond for her.
The almond was much to Zhong Yuhuanâs liking, but she still couldnât have too many of them. She didnât want to break out. After eating a few of them, she put her hand on Huo Chengmingâs and had him stop peeling. As for the macadamia nuts that he had peeled earlier, he ate them one after another.
âThey are very high in calories,â reminded Zhong Yuhuan.
Huo Chengming answered, âThatâs not a problem. I burn much more calories in a day than that.â
His words immediately brought back her memory of coming into contact with his arm just a little while ago.
It was strong and sturdy.
Was that how he has been burning his calories?
Zhong Yuhuan did not get an answer to her question.
After the fruits and the snacks, Huo Chengming turned immediately into a good big brother and urged Zhong Yuhuan to go to bed early. Zhong Yuhuan hasnât been getting enough sleep lately so she fell asleep almost as soon as she hit the bed.
Right before she fell asleep, she couldnât help but wonder where Li Jinyuan had gone.
She wasnât able to get hold of Li Jinyuan at all in the next few days that followed. Right when she was about to call up Wei Jie and ask him, she looked through her text and finally saw one from Li Jinyuan.
âHuanhuan, I have been busy with work lately and wonât be able to see you for a few days. Huanhuan needs to get some good rest. From Li Jinyuan.â
Zhong Yuhuan smacked herself on her head.
She has received so many texts lately that she had missed the one from Li Jinyuan.
Even though she had found out about his whereabouts, she gave Wie Jie a call anyway.
âYoung Master Li has been busy expanding the market within the country. I wonât divulge any more for the time being. We will share as soon as we find out more,â said Wie Jie cheerfully from the other end.
After she had hung up with Wie Jie, Zhong Yuhuan quickly spotted Li Jinyuan, and it was on television.
It was a reality TV show, and Li Jinyuan joined as one of the candidates.
Ah, so he followed the original script after all!
In the original novel, Li Jinyuan never studied abroad or had the experience as a model. The first time he had encountered the entertainment circle was on this variety show. Ling Zhilan would also have joined an all-girl reality TV show, but according to the original novel, she would not have won in the show. She would, later on, gain reputation online first, Finally, after some twists and turns, she would join the entertainment circle and start her acting career.
Zhong Yuhuan must lament on the mighty power of the original novel.
