Chapter 112: Chapter 112 Don’t Take Me for a Fool_1

Upon leaving the restaurant building, Cheng Xiaoyun finally let go of Su Chengyu’s arm, expressing her gratitude to him, "Thank you."

"You had this meal all planned out, didn’t you?" Su Chengyu asked coolly, devoid of any emotion.

"What do you mean?" Cheng Xiaoyun responded.

Su Chengyu placed his phone screen in front of Cheng Xiaoyun. It displayed a post from her social media feed showing a picture of the food at the location of the restaurant.

"You intentionally lured your ex-boyfriend here, using me to deal with him. You certainly outdid yourself with this clever scheme," Su Chengyu said, his eyes slightly squinting.

"No! Su Chengyu, you’ve misunderstood me," Cheng Xiaoyun tried to explain.

Waving a hand dismissively, Su Chengyu interjected, "No need for excuses. You could have simply asked me for assistance, as a favor for an old classmate. I would’ve obliged, but you shouldn’t take me for a fool. You saw Lin Chuxue at the 4S store and therefore knew of my relationship with the Lin family."

"I’m sorry, I had no other choice. Dong Yi has been harassing me incessantly, threatening me in all sorts of ways. I wanted to ask you directly but was afraid you would refuse."

Having been exposed by Su Chengyu, Cheng Xiaoyun had no choice but to confess.

Indeed, everything that happened today was her own calculation, intending to use Su Chengyu as a means for her revenge against Dong Yi.

"I dislike being deceived and manipulated. As for this incident, I won’t hold it against you. But our friendship, as classmates, ends here," concluded Su Chengyu.

Having said his piece, Su Chengyu returned straight to his car and drove off.

Cheng Xiaoyun bit her lip hard, her eyes welling up with tears. Although she had her revenge on Dong Yi, she lost a friend in Su Chengyu. Now thinking back, it didn’t seem worth it at all.

Cheng Xiaoyun never expected anything to happen between herself and Su Chengyu. Aware of her own limitations, she knew that even if she threw herself at him, Su Chengyu, given his current status, would take no notice of her. Hence, her recourse to this scheme.

"Su Chengyu, I’m sorry, truly sorry."

Cheng Xiaoyun’s face was full of regret.

When Su Chengyu drove home that afternoon, he received a call from Su Xiaoxiao saying that she wouldn’t be home for dinner. The boss of the company she had just signed under was treating everyone to a meal.

Su Chengyu found being home alone rather dull. He intended to meditate, but whenever he closed his eyes, the image of Aunt Xu danced around in his mind, disrupting his concentration.

Su Chengyu, deciding not to stay home, drove to the First Sight Bar. Since the unpleasant incident with Liu Yan, he had stopped visiting the bar and had decided not to meet Aunt Xu until he had become powerful enough to crush Hong Zhen Ting.

However, it proved difficult. The more he tried not seeing Aunt Xu, the stronger his longing for her became.

Su Chengyu parked his car outside the First Sight Bar. Sensing the place with his Divine Sense, he realized that Aunt Xu was not around.

Seems like Aunt Xu didn’t come to the bar this time." Su Chengyu was disappointed, but he still got out of the car and walked into the bar.

"Brother Yu, it’s been a while since we’ve seen you. Sister Liu Yan told us you had quit. We will miss seeing you around." The bartender at the entrance greeted Su Chengyu as soon as she noticed him.

"Even if I’ve quit, I can still come here for a drink, can’t I?" Su Chengyu replied.

"Of course you can! Please, let me go and attend to the other guests."

Su Chengyu walked into the bar. It was still early, and not many customers were inside. He walked straight to the bar and said to the bartender, "Little Chen, give me a Bloody Mary."

"Yo, Brother Yu. Why don’t you mix your own? My cocktails can’t hold a candle to yours." The bartender nicknamed Little Chen laughed.

"Alright. I’ll make it myself."

Su Chengyu went behind the bar, fixing himself a drink. Little Chen said, "Brother Yu, many customers have asked about you since you left. They miss your cocktails. Some of them, pretty good-looking ones, even asked me for your contact information. They thought you might have gone to work for another bar."

Su Chengyu was sipping his drink leisurely. In the meantime, Liu Yan visited once and they had a terse conversation. He couldn’t understand how Liu Yan turned frosty towards him all of a sudden. He knew something must be behind it.

On the other side, Su Xiaoxiao and her agent headed to the restaurant. Initially, when her agent told her about the dinner with the boss, Su Xiaoxiao had refused. However, after much persuasion, she finally agreed.

Su Xiaoxiao had never met her agency’s boss. Her contract was handled solely by her agent. She heard that he was a middle-aged man who not only signed many internet-famous anchors but also invested in movies.

The big star Shu Yu Ge, who was currently red-hot in the entertainment industry, had been discovered and initially promoted by her agency’s boss. He had then sold her contract to another agency, earning a hefty profit.

"Xiaoxiao, you have a great talent for singing, and you’re also very attractive. With such star potential, as long as the boss is willing to promote you, you might become the next Shu Yu Ge. "

Her agent, Wang Ling, suggested.

"But I don’t want to be a star! Ling jie, you know my situation. I signed the contract initially just to raise money to buy a house. Once the contract expires, I definitely won’t be renewing it to continue livestreaming."

Su Xiaoxiao shook her head, having no interest in becoming a star.

"Why not? Do you know how many people dream of becoming a star?" Wang Ling tried to persuade her.

"No reason, I just don’t want to. I have my own ambitions and dreams."

Su Xiaoxiao knew that once she became a star, she wouldn’t be able to stay by her brother’s side often. Plus, she felt that living in the limelight was too exhausting.

"You silly girl, you really don’t know what’s good for you!" Wang Ling exclaimed frustratedly.

Wang Ling led Su Xiaoxiao into a private room where only a middle-aged man sat. Wang Ling spoke, "Xiaoxiao, meet our company’s boss, Director Zhao Zihao."

"Hello, Director Zhao," Su Xiaoxiao greeted.

"Please take a seat." Zhao Zihao responded warmly.

"Ling Jie, didn’t you say there would be other staff? Why is it just us three now? " Su Xiaoxiao asked after she sat down.

"Yes, there are others. They will be here in a moment," Zhao Zihao clarified. He then started praising Su Xiaoxiao for her increasing popularity under the company’s management, expressing his intention to promote her into a top star.

"Thank you, Director Zhao, but I truly have no interest in being a star. Please don’t waste your money and efforts on me." Su Xiaoxiao politely declined.

"Who wouldn’t want to be a star? Do you know how much money stars can make?" Zhao Zihao asked, trying to convince her.

Su Xiaoxiao didn’t want to pursue this topic further and chose not to respond. Just then, the door to the private room opened, and Zhao Zihao immediately stood up and said, "Our most important guest has arrived."

Two men walked into the room. Su Xiaoxiao recognized one of them as He Bin, the man who was disciplined by Su Chengyu. She immediately frowned.

"Why is he here?" Su Xiaoxiao asked.

"I don’t know either, do you know him? He seems like an important person." Wang Ling replied.

"Miss Su, I told you that we would meet again. I bet you didn’t expect it to be this soon?"

He Bin’s smile was a mix of deviousness and satisfaction, which sent a chill down Su Xiaoxiao’s spine.
