Wang Zi had an ulterior motive. Because the purpose for inviting Fang Moâer was not to make amends, that meant that she did not know what to say. That made the situation a little awkward.
Fang Moâer was not really bothered with her. If Wang Zi did not say anything, she would not say anything. Mu Ye did not speak much either. In addition to Fang Moâer, there were also other people present, so he did not speak either.
âMiss Fang, Mr. Mu, please see if thereâs anything else that you like to eat. You can add a few more dishes since I didnât know what you two like to eat either. The dishes that Iâve ordered are all the specialty dishes of this restaurant.â
After a moment of silence, Wang Zi had felt really uncomfortable and had finally spokenn/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

up.
Mu Ye ignored her, merely glancing at Fang Moâer before starting to look at some documents on his phone.
Fang Moâer smiled at Wang Zi and said kindly, âItâs alright, Iâm not picky. Since youâve already ordered the special dishes, letâs try them together.â
They chatted for a while before the waiter finally served the dishes.
Fang Moâer had thought it was just an ordinary dish, but when she saw the waiter serving it, she was shocked.
The waiter was wearing white gloves as he gently placed the tableware on the table.
The dishes were served on a glazed plate. The plate was crystal clear and it was obvious that it was expensive.
There was only a small portion of each of the exquisite and delicate dishes on each glazed plate with some rose petals scattered around them.
After the dishes had been served, the waiter brought over two silver candlesticks and lit the candles. After lighting them up, he scattered some petals on the table.
Although the dishes had all been served, he had not brought any cutlery.
After the waiter had arranged everything, he turned off the main light, leaving behind a dim yellow light. With the burning candles, it gave off a strange and intimate feeling.
After doing all this, he silently left. Fang Moâer looked at the table with only the dishes and no cutlery, the look in her eyes suddenly changing
Wang Zi, who was sitting at the side, also noticed it and said in embarrassment, âIt looks like the waiter forgot to bring the utensils. Please wait for me. Iâll go get them.â
Fang Moâer said, âThereâs a phone here. Just call and let them know. Itâll be sent over.â
Wang Ziâs eyes flickered, but she quickly regained her composure. She smiled and said, âIâll go and rush them. Iâll also get something else to eat. Iâll be back soon.â
Wang Zi left after saying that but did not forget to close the door.
The dim yellow lights and the flickering candlelight made Fang Moâer feel uncomfortable. At that moment, she and Mu Ye were the only ones in the private room and the two of them had nothing to say.
In order to avoid the awkwardness, Fang Moâer took her phone out and pretended to read something.
Mu Ye acted very naturally. Taking the red wine and the wine glasses on the table, he poured two glasses. Then, he passed one of the glasses to Fang Moâer and said, âMiss Fang, originally I had wanted to treat you to a meal so that we could discuss the endorsement deal. However, since someone else has already made this connection for us, I just decided to go with the flow.â âThank you, but I donât drink.â Fang Moâer refused the drink, but accepted the wine glass. However, she placed it in front of her without drinking it.
Seeing this, Mu Ye did not force her. He continued, âThe company is very optimistic about your future development, so I wanted to ask your opinion on whether we should renew the contract.â
Fang Moâer was stunned for a moment and asked doubtfully, âDidnât we just sign the contract not too long ago? It should still be quite some time before it expires.â
Mu Ye said, âIndeed, but after some deliberation among the companyâs board of directors, it seems they are very optimistic about your future development. If you renew the contract now, you will be able to obtain the greatest benefits at the smallest cost.â
Fang Moâer smiled. âYouâve already said that my future development will be good, so wouldnât it be a loss for me to renew the contract with you now? Arenât you afraid that I will reject it if you just say it out loud?â
âItâs not too late to decide whether to reject it or not after youâve read the contractâs terms and conditions.â
Mu Ye passed the contract document to Fang Moâer and continued, âOf course, I just want to see what your intentions are now. This contract is just a draft. Iâll inform you about the details and the date of signing the contract.â
Fang Moâer glanced at it briefly. Other than the sky-high endorsement fee, the additional conditions attracted her attention.
If the contract was renewed, as long as Fang Moâerâs movies in the future were not removed from the shelves, they would all be able to get the prime time slot.
In other words, as long as any of Fang Moâerâs movies were still playing, they would definitely be allotted the best time slot. This was equivalent to advertising in disguise.
The conditions were very attractive, so Fang Moâer happily nodded her head and agreed.
Just as she was about to discuss the contract with Mu Ye in further detail, the door to the private room opened.
Fang Moâer turned around and saw that Wang Zi had returned. Behind her was a waiter with cutlery and a bottle of expensive red wine on a tray.
