Chapter 413 - 413 388 Local Tycoon
413: Chapter 388: Local Tycoon 413: Chapter 388: Local Tycoon “You used to bring my sister everywhere you went, didn’t you?
Now you have to bring me everywhere too!
My sister isn’t here now, you’re my agent!
And when discussing my album, I must be involved!
Just to see if you are undermining my interests!
Let’s go!” Shi Qing’er said, grabbing Liu Hun without further explanation, with a look on her face that shouted, “You can’t shake me off.”
“Ah!” Liu Hun sighed heavily and had no choice but to bring Shi Qing’er along.
After getting into Liu Hun’s Audi, Shi Qing’er asked him, “Sullen Face, can’t you get a better car?
Didn’t you use a Maybach for my sister?”
Liu Hun didn’t expect Shi Qing’er to compare herself with Shi Bi’er in every respect.
If he didn’t know about Shi Qing’er’s complexes, he would have thought she was just a gold-digging troublemaker, but ever since Shi Bi’er had told him that Shi Qing’er had always lived under her care and shadow, craving to stand out and even surpass her, Liu Hun understood that Shi Qing’er had always wanted to step out of her sister’s shadow and live as her own person, instead of living as the national goddess Shi Bi’er’s sister.
“This…
I am just an agent so I ought to keep a low profile, and the Maybach was provided by Yinyue Company for your sister, not bought by me,” Liu Hun explained to Shi Qing’er.
“Oh!” Shi Qing’er nodded, fiddling with her hands while seemingly deep in thought, then suddenly looked up at Liu Hun and said, “Sullen Face, if my album makes money, could you buy me a nice car where you drive and I ride?”
“Sure!
Even if it doesn’t sell well, I’ll buy you one,” Liu Hun nodded and replied.
“Ptu, ptu, ptu!
Such a jinx!” Shi Qing’er pouted at Liu Hun.
The two of them bickered all the way to the Yinyue Company building.
Liu Hun took Shi Qing’er to Lin Xiaoxiang’s office, where today Lin Xiaoxiang seemed particularly cheerful, rarely revealing her amorous side beyond her intellectual exterior.
“Agent Liu, Qing’er, please have a seat.
What can I get you two?” Lin Xiaoxiang asked them.
“Whatever Sullen Face is having, I’m having,” Shi Qing’er said bluntly.
“Su…
pfft…” Lin Xiaoxiang couldn’t help but cover her mouth and laugh.
Feeling slightly embarrassed, Liu Hun said, “I’ll have a coffee, please.”
“Alright, just a moment,” Lin Xiaoxiang said before she left the office.
“Hey!
Sullen Face, I notice all the women around you are gorgeous.
Be honest, how many are you involved with?!” Shi Qing’er pointed at Liu Hun’s nose and asked.
“Ah!” Liu Hun sighed heavily and said, “Qing’er, you’re now a celebrity.
Could you please pay a little attention to your image?
Don’t speak whatever comes to your mind, especially in front of the media.
It could lead to big trouble!”
“I am what I am!
If you don’t like it, too bad!” Shi Qing’er turned her face away, clearly upset.
“It’s not that I don’t like…”
“So you do like!”
“That’s not what I mean…”
“Then what do you mean?!”
“Here’s your coffee,” Lin Xiaoxiang said, walking into the office with two cups of coffee, having heard their quarrel from afar.
“Thank you, Assistant Lin.” Liu Hun quickly ended the argument with Shi Qing’er, feeling like a total loser in front of her.
“Assistant Lin, let’s talk about the album,” Liu Hun said after taking a sip of his coffee.
“Yes!” Lin Xiaoxiang nodded, smoothed her skirt, and sat down across from Liu Hun and Shi Qing’er, speaking gently, “The album has to be delayed.”
“Delayed?
What exactly do you mean?” Liu Hun asked, puzzled.
Lin Xiaoxiang patiently explained, “It’s the chairman’s decision.
He believes Shi Bi’er’s current popularity can be leveraged.
But creating an album takes a long time, especially since it’s Qing’er’s first album, which needs to be perfected.
By then, if Shi Bi’er’s popularity has waned, wouldn’t it all be in vain?
And there’s more…” Lin Xiaoxiang paused, glancing at them, hesitant to continue.
“Please, just say it, Assistant Lin,” Liu Hun urged.
“The chairman also feels that since Shi Qing’er is a newcomer, despite the popularity and attention from Shi Bi’er, she still needs to face market challenges.
So, his idea is to release a high-quality single first.
This approach will yield the best results and align with everyone’s interests,” Lin Xiaoxiang explained to Liu Hun.
“Hey!
Stop with the perpetual ‘Shi Bi’er!
Shi Bi’er!’ Can’t you see I am not her?
I don’t give a damn about her popularity!” Shi Qing’er, feeling as though her fame was entirely dependent on her sister, was quite displeased after hearing Lin Xiaoxiang’s remarks.
“Qing’er, that’s not what I meant.
It’s just…” Lin Xiaoxiang, unsure why Shi Qing’er reacted so strongly, struggled to explain and could only look at Liu Hun for help.
Liu Hun chuckled and said to Lin Xiaoxiang, “Assistant Lin, don’t take it to heart.
Qing’er meant no harm.
Director Shi’s proposal is excellent, and I agree.
I will select the songs as soon as possible and hand them over to you.”
“Great!
Thank you for your understanding, Manager Liu.
You can do it, Qing’er.” Lin Xiaoxiang smiled at Shi Qing’er, finding the young and somewhat temperamental girl quite adorable.
Shi Qing’er pursed her lips and didn’t respond to Lin Xiaoxiang.
After leaving Yinyue Company, Liu Hun didn’t drive directly home.
Noticing they weren’t headed towards home, Shi Qing’er asked, “Hey, Stone-faced Man, where are you taking me?”
“We need to change your style!” Liu Hun told Shi Qing’er.
“Style?!
Does my style need changing?
I look great, okay?
You just don’t appreciate it!” Shi Qing’er pouted, clearly unhappy with Liu Hun’s comment.
“You are indeed pretty, but not gorgeous or charming enough.
As a star, you shouldn’t confine yourself to a fixed pattern or image; otherwise, it’ll be hard to change later.
Besides…
you also want to transform into a woman, not just stay a girl, right?” Liu Hun asked Shi Qing’er.
“A woman…” Shi Qing’er muttered the word, looked at her casual outfit, thought about her recent encounter with Lin Xiaoxiang, and suddenly told Liu Hun, “Okay!
I’ll change!
But at home, I still want to be my true self!”
“Sure!” Liu Hun nodded earnestly, turned the steering wheel, and headed towards Ming City Department Store.
The place was filled with the world’s top luxury brands and importantly offered private customization services that provided high-end personal services, albeit at very high costs.
“Wow!
Stone-faced Man, you’re actually bringing me here?
Be honest, how much money did you squeeze out of my sister?” Shi Qing’er, looking at the Ming City Department Store decorated like a European Imperial Palace, was dazzled.
Despite always portraying a tomboy image, deep down, she harbored a young girl’s longing for such things.
“Ha ha ha…
I’m a local tycoon!
Let’s go!” Liu Hun laughed loudly, a rare occurrence.
Shi Qing’er, taking advantage of Liu Hun’s rare laughter, sneakily snapped a photo and followed him into the shopping mall.
Everything in front of her dazzled Shi Qing’er so much that she wanted to buy stuff to play with at home.
Shi Qing’er bounced over to a counter and pointed out a brooch to Liu Hun, exclaiming, “Hey, hey, hey!
Stone-faced Man, look how pretty this brooch is!”
“Come on!
Let’s go upstairs!” Liu Hun said, and finally managed to drag Shi Qing’er away.
The two reached a VIP elevator, which led to the top floor where the premier luxury brands were collected, many of which were globally limited editions.
“Uh-oh!
Uh-oh!
Why isn’t it opening?
Is the elevator broken?” Shi Qing’er pressed the open button several times without any response.
“Who is this bumpkin?
Is this elevator meant for you?
Move aside!” A glamorous woman carrying a LV bag scoffed at Shi Qing’er.
Shi Qing’er turned and saw the woman, and her first impression was of a school floozy who hung out with rich kids.
She lifted her chin and retorted, “Who’s a bumpkin?
Watch your mouth!
With that look, you don’t seem like a decent woman!”
Liu Hun quickly stepped forward and pulled Shi Qing’er aside, whispering, “Qing’er, let’s go up.
Don’t stoop to her level.” Liu Hun was familiar with these types of gold-diggers and felt they weren’t worth the bother.
“Hmph!” Shi Qing’er was reluctantly pulled in front of the elevator, only to hear the flashy woman again, “You think you belong in this elevator?
What a joke!” After speaking, she swayed her hips to the side of the elevator, scorned the two, and then swiped a card by the elevator door, “Ding!” The elevator door opened.
“This is what represents status, you understand?
Haha!” The woman said while brandishing her card, then she walked straight into the elevator.
“What’s there to flaunt?!
Just because you have some stinking money?
You think anyone respects you?!
Clinging to a man, have you no shame?” Even though Liu Hun held her back, Shi Qing’er pointed at the glamorous woman and scolded her loudly.
“What did you say, you—” The glamorous woman, face losing powder from anger, was interrupted as the elevator door closed.
“Ah!
Stone-faced Man!
Why are you holding me back?
That woman is infuriating!
What kind of place have you brought me to, where I have to meet such disgusting people!” Shi Qing’er was nearly frantic.
Liu Hun appeared indifferent and comforted Shi Qing’er, “You’ve already left school, and not everything in society is as pure as it was there, especially in the entertainment industry.
You will meet many disgusting people and experience disgusting situations.
It’s unavoidable.”
“What should I do?
I detest seeing them!” Shi Qing’er asked unhappily.
Liu Hun casually pulled out a card and suggested, “They flaunt and look down on you; use this to slap their faces.
It’s very satisfying!
