Chapter 16 - Pep Talk
As she left the restaurant, Song Xing Xing could not help but think whether it was not too late for her to pull out from the new studio. If only she knew that the lunatic would be her boss, she would not have the guts to go with Producer Ming and accept the job.
What if the man's imagination runs wild and he started to think that she had applied for a job at his studio just to find gossips about him or his artists?
That man seemed unreasonable and surely, he would not listen to her explanation just like the last time.
This was a job that Producer Ming had introduced to her and Song Xing Xing did not want to mess it up.
Will it be too late for her to quit this job now?
Just a few hours ago, she had just signed her contract. Can she really part with this dream job?
Song Xing Xing let out a heavy sigh as she continued to weigh her decision.
Not too long ago, she had told her family that she had a job offer and will continue to stay in Capital City. If she quit this job now, her mother will make her return to Y City.
She really did not want to stay in Y City.
After she had come to Capital City to pursue her study, Song Xing Xing began to enjoy her life where she was free to do whatever she wanted without having people scrutinizing what she wears and what she does.
In Capital City, no one seemed to know her well and she was able to pretend like she was not from an influential family.
Moreover, she really liked her job and what she does. She did not want to quit.
Song Xing Xing tried to think positively.
That's right… the last time they met at the venue, the lights surrounding them were dim and she was having a hard time recognizing President Lu Xun. Perhaps, it was the same for that man? Perhaps, if they meet again, he would not be able to recognize her?
As the thoughts came to her mind, Song Xing Xing was like a wilted flower that suddenly came back to life.
Perhaps, the next time she showed up at the new studio, she should dress up differently. She can only avoid this catastrophe when the man could not recognize her. Moreover… she can always try to avoid him, right?
That man is the president of NEXT Group. As someone in a high position, he should be busy all the time. Maybe he would not even have time to visit his new studio?
Anyway, she was just a small video editor. Perhaps, there will be no chance for them to meet at all!
Song Xing Xing raised both hands and gave a soft slap to her cheek. Once she gave herself a pep talk, her face regained color and her posture was straight.
She was determined not to let the misunderstanding between them ruin her life. Song Xing Xing decided to put that episode on the back of her mind and play dumb. If President Lu Xun figured out who she is, then be it! Before he pointed out that incident, she was not going to quit!
Once she was in a good mood, Song Xing Xing decided to go out and went shopping.
There are still a few hours before her appointment with Bai Zhi and she did not want to go home at this time. Song Xing Xing knew herself too well. Once she had entered her apartment, she would be too lazy to go out again.
As she was waiting for the bus to arrive, Song Xing Xing decided to login into the game. The moment the welcome screen popped up, there was a new announcement. There was a blurry silhouette and a big question mark on the face.
She recalled her conversation with Grasshopper and saw that it was an announcement about the new spokesperson.
The new spokesperson will be announced in a few weeks via a live stream. To promote this event, the management started a gacha event that will allow the players to redeem good quality weapons and costumes.
Song Xing looked at the list of the prize and was excited to see the pretty costume. She looked at the dates and made a mental note to show up and watch the streaming.
Once she logged into the game, Song Xing Xing realized that the members in her guild were talking about this event. The conference to announce this new spokesperson will be held in Capital City and some of them were planning to attend. It was a good chance for them to organize a meetup as well.
As she was reading their conversation in silence, an icon on her screen blinked. Song Xing Xing clicked the mail button and saw that it was a mail from General Huo.
General Huo: Little star, are you going to the conference as well?
Song Xing Xing wanted to pretend that she did not see this message. Although her relationship with the members of her guild was good, she had never thought about meeting them face to face.
General Huo: I have an entry ticket for the conference. If you wanted to go, I can e-mail the ticket to you.
Song Xing Xing narrowed her eyes, thinking that his words were a little suspicious.
Not your little star: How did you get the ticket?
General Huo sent her a smiley emoji and typed: The management send them to me. I am one of their top spenders. Of course, they wanted to treat me well.
Song Xing Xing thought that his explanation was reasonable.
General Huo: If you showed up at the conference, the management will give you a code to redeem a lot of good things. Of course, this code will only be given to those who have the tickets.
Seeing this message, Song Xing Xing was tempted to attend this event!
Swiftly, she replied to General Huo with her email address.
