Chu Xiang's secret recipe was good stuff, so negotiating was not a problem for her. After meeting with the company's CEO, Jensen, she received a 30% bonus from the cosmetics line and the permanent endorsement of the cosmetics line.
When signing, Jensen exclaimed, "I can't believe that you're just a celebrity in the entertainment industry. You make me doubt my ability."
Chu Xiang smiled as she signed, "Who can't be an investor? Being a celebrity is just my interest. Happy cooperation. "
"Happy cooperation!" Jensen personally sent Chu Xiang out of the conference room and politely hugged her at the elevator door, "Oh, Xiang! I hope we can continue to work together. I like you, really, you're amazing! "
When the elevator door opened, Zhou Ye stood there facing their hug. His fingers moved slightly as he restrained himself from pulling Jensen away. Behind him was Jensen's assistant, who stepped forward and introduced, "Boss, this is the general manager of the Zhou Group, Mr. Zhou Ye. Mr. Zhou, this is our boss …"
Jensen and Chu Xiang had already separated. Zhou Ye asked with a fake smile, "Xiang Xiang, why are you here? You're … "
Jensen asked, "Do you know each other?"
Chu Xiang smiled, "That's right, this is my boss."
Jensen was pleasantly surprised, "What a coincidence! In China's words, it's … fate, we're really fated. Mr. Zhou, let's talk in my office? "
Zhou Ye walked to Chu Xiang's side and shook hands with Jensen. He continued with a fake smile, "Sorry, I suddenly remembered that I have something important to discuss with Xiang Xiang. Can we make an appointment next time?"
"Of course, you guys go do your important things first." Jensen naturally agreed.
Chu Xiang said goodbye to Jensen. Before leaving, she said, "I hope that your formula will be successfully completed and the cosmetics line will be released soon."
"Definitely!" Jensen smiled as he watched her walk into the elevator. He looked at her as if he was looking at a treasure. This was the goddess that brought him huge profits!
Zhou Ye was extremely displeased. As soon as the elevator doors closed, he couldn't hold it in anymore. However, he couldn't ask directly, so he probed, "Xiang Xiang, are you friends with Jason?"
Chu Xiang took out her phone to check the schedule and casually replied, "Yeah, are you here to cooperate with him? Jason is a good person, a good person to work with. "
For the first time, Zhou Ye experienced what it felt like to be a lemon on the Internet. Why had Chu Xiang never praised him like that?
Zhou Ye glanced at Chu Xiang's side profile and cleared his throat. "Aren't you busy today? What about Tao and the others? You came here on your own? "
"They left after dropping me off. I don't know how long Jason and I will talk for, but after we're done, we'll call a cab and head straight to the filming location." When the elevator reached the parking lot, Chu Xiang put away her phone and looked at him. "By the way, you were looking for me for something important? Is it about work? "
Zhou Ye hurriedly made up a reason. "There's a charity banquet, and many big shots in the industry will be there. I wanted to ask if you're going."
Chu Xiang refused without thinking. "No, my work schedule is very full recently, and my resources are very stable at the moment. It's not a good thing to jump ranks." She didn't know how many banquets she had attended, so of course, she was more interested in filming. Besides, she really didn't need to meet any big shots now. It was too early. She would only have a job after her show was broadcast.
Zhou Ye nodded and let her get in the car. "I'll take you to the filming location. It's at the aquarium, right?"
"Yes." Chu Xiang took out the makeup remover in her bag and began to remove her makeup. In her mind, she had already started the filming process.
Zhou Ye glanced at her. When he started the car, all he thought about was the moment when the elevator doors opened, the scene of Chu Xiang and Jason hugging, and the way Jason looked at Chu Xiang at the end. It was really dazzling.
After a few minutes of silence, he asked, "You and Jason are friends. Why did you put on makeup to see him? Now you have to remove it. How troublesome is that? Isn't it good to be like this in front of me? "
Chu Xiang wiped off the eyeliner and replied, "Makeup is basic etiquette when discussing business. You're my boss, so you can be more casual."
When Zhou Ye heard "one of us", he raised the corner of his mouth and immediately said in surprise, "Discussing business? Your previous investment was with Jason? "
"It's considered one of the partners. By the way, they will soon launch a makeup line and have signed me as the permanent spokesperson for this line. This brand is a high-end brand, and it's considered my first luxury brand endorsement. Can you help me pass the contract to Uncle Dong? "
Zhou Ye immediately thought of the two rumors about Chu Xiang "changing her face" on the Internet. She had used a miracle drug to change her face and crazily Chu Xiang.
He couldn't help but smile. "So you're here to talk about cooperation. Okay, I'll take the contract back. You're too much of a burden for the company. You're even talking about a luxury brand endorsement. Don't worry about this. I've already asked someone to help you contact the right resources. It won't stop. "
Zhou Ye's tone was too different from before, and it finally attracted Chu Xiang's attention.
She raised her head from the mirror and looked at Zhou Ye. She raised her eyebrows and silently asked him what he meant.
Zhou Ye restrained his smile and was silent for a few seconds. He looked at her and admitted defeat. "Sorry, I just couldn't help it. I thought you and Jason … You know, I was overthinking."
Chu Xiang recalled what Zhou Ye had said just now and realized that Zhou Ye was jealous. She took a new wet wipe and wiped her face again. She didn't care and said, "It's okay."
She didn't say anything, but Zhou Ye felt uncomfortable and looked at her again and again. When he saw that she had removed her makeup and closed her eyes to rest, he finally said, "Aren't you going to give me a response? I've already made it so obvious. You should at least let me know where I stand and what to do next. "
Chu Xiang closed her eyes. "I'm only interested in being a star recently. I'm not interested in dating. Besides, I might not have time to date in the next few years."
Zhou Ye heaved a sigh of relief when he didn't hear her say that she didn't like it. He said patiently, "How can you not have time in a relationship? We can keep it a secret. If you're busy, I can look for you. "
Chu Xiang opened her eyes and looked at him in confusion. "Why would you look for me when I'm busy? To see me busy? "
Zhou Ye choked and thought for a moment. "Seeing you busy … That's fine too. You always have time to eat and rest. Can't we be together then?"
"Then what's the fun in dating me? It's better to find a beautiful girl who's free to play with you in the office. Isn't dating for fun? It's the same as not looking for someone like me who's busy from morning to night. "
Zhou Ye thought about what she said and actually felt that he couldn't refute it. He coughed twice to calm down, found a seat on the side of the road and stopped. He turned to look at her and said seriously, "Xiang Xiang, I'm not looking for a random person to fall in love with. It's because that person is you that I want to fall in love. If it's someone else, I won't go to school. So, if you're busy, I'll be happy to see you. Then, when you're done with work, won't you be happy to have me with you? I know your career is on the rise, and I plan to slowly take over the business at home. We can meet when we're free. "
Chu Xiang's heart didn't move at all. She felt that this was similar to being a furnace in the Immortal Cultivation World. When you're busy, you'll have fun. When you're busy, you won't care. Zhou Ye recommended himself so strongly just for a little time when she wasn't busy? What a strange person.
She looked at her watch and reminded him, "Let's go to the aquarium first. I want to get to know everyone before the shooting starts. Private matters can be left for later." She turned to Zhou Ye and smiled. "I'm not in the mood to have one more person around me recently. When I want to be alone, I'll look for you, okay?"
"Oh." Zhou Ye started the car a little blankly. Did he feel that something was wrong?
Why did these words sound so trashy? He was still the trashy one, but he actually felt a little happy because Chu Xiang meant that she would look for him when she wanted to be in love. Did this mean that he had succeeded?
On the way to the aquarium, he didn't know whether he had succeeded or not. He always felt that he had been tricked by Chu Xiang. When Chu Xiang was about to get out of the car, he grabbed Chu Xiang and asked doubtfully, "Are you afraid that I'll pester you, so you're just perfunctory with me?"
Chu Xiang found it funny and said, "Then what do you want? I don't have time. "
"This is the first time I heard that you don't like to be in love because you don't have time. So, do you like me?" Zhou Ye looked at her and held his breath, wanting a definite answer.
Chu Xiang told him the truth. "I prefer myself, at any time. So, for me, love is not as important as what I'm interested in. Is it dispensable? "
Zhou Ye let go of her. After she got out of the car, he lowered the window and asked one last question. "Then, can I look for you?"
"Yes, go back." Chu Xiang waved at him and turned to walk into the aquarium.
Zhou Ye kept looking at her back and slowly sorted out her meaning. She didn't hate it, but she didn't like it either because she didn't think about it at all. She just wanted to be famous.
This was the first time he knew that a star refused the pursuit of a big shot in the entertainment industry for the sake of being famous. The reason was that she didn't have time to be famous. Well … it was also very amazing.
However, if Chu Xiang wasn't unique, would he be attracted to her?
Just now, because of the sudden confession, Chu Xiang's answer was beyond his expectations, and he was a little caught off guard. Now that he had calmed down and regained his rationality, what kind of reason was this? He could pursue Chu Xiang in her free time.
Zhou Ye called the head of operations and asked for Chu Xiang's detailed schedule. Of course, it was not easy to pursue an interesting soul. He had to make the first move before others knew how good Chu Xiang was.
Chu Xiang soon found that when she was busy filming two variety shows, no matter which city she flew to, she could see Zhou Ye after work. Sometimes he would eat with her, sometimes he would bring her a bunch of snacks, sometimes he would accompany her to the swimming pool to relax, and sometimes he would just leave after a glance at her.
Because Zhou Ye didn't interfere with Chu Xiang's working time at all, she didn't feel bad when there was one more person in her free time. So naturally, she got used to it. Even Tao and Brother Yong were used to disappearing when Zhou Ye appeared. Anyway, Zhou Ye took care of Chu Xiang better than they did of their aunt, so there was no need to worry at all.
As Zhou Ye got closer to Chu Xiang, he felt that he was more like Zhou Zi. Chu Xiang's heart wasn't with him at all. The only fortunate thing was that none of the other men could catch Chu Xiang's eye.
He began to work hard to make his presence known and strive to rise as soon as possible. He also secretly ordered a set of manservant's suit, intending to give Chu Xiang a big surprise on her birthday!
