Chapter 2

Yu Wan never thought she would hear Li Shen’s name come out of Wei Shao’s mouth. Her face slightly changed but quickly returned to normal, “President Wei, can I not go to tomorrow’s wedding? I still have a lot of work to do.”

“Who still doesn’t have work to do?” Wei Shao turned to look at her, “It’s important for people in our profession to network. There is a lot of people going tomorrow that I need to introduce you to. You can’t be absent.”

“Don’t mention it, I really thought it was a gathering of people from the motherland.”

Because her boss has said this, Yu Wan naturally cannot refuse, “I got it.”

“Haha, but I heard from President Wei that you talked to him for a long time.”

“Dress a bit nicer tomorrow.” Wei Shao concluded and subconsciously glanced at Yu Wan’s feet, “Didn’t I tell you to buy a better pair of shoes? Buy it tomorrow before the wedding, It can’t be less than five thousand. I will reimburse you.”

“……” This doesn’t seem right.

“What’s wrong?” Wei Shao’s eyes swept over to her. Yu Wan hurriedly explained, “Nothing, I will buy it tonight!”

Although Lize Park is close to the western suburbs, there are some commercial streets nearby so it wouldn’t be difficult to look for a pair of 5000 dollar shoes. Yu Wan went to her favorite brand and quickly picked out a pair of high heels to wear tomorrow.

5188 yuan. Now her boss can’t say anything.

After buying the shoes, she had dinner in the department store along the way before going home with the shopping bag. During her master bedroom renovation, she specifically asked to install a bathtub. Yu Wan took a comfortable shower and walked out wearing a nightgown.

The sky had already darkened and it is quiet outside. She put her hands on the balcony railing and gazed at the villa area before landing her sights on Lize Park. At night the park is like a veiled woman, hazily beautiful. The streetlights clearly showed the outline of the lake.

Yu Wan smiled and enjoyed the evening breeze as she gazed at the park before retreating back into the apartment.

“Yu Wan recently returned from abroad with a CWP. Maybe she can help with Director Hu’s daughter’s wedding.”

Because of how hectic the day was today, she thought that she would immediately fall asleep the moment her body hit the bed. However, after Yu Wan closed her eyes, her mind is filled with the wedding that Wei Shao mentioned. Li Shen wouldn’t necessarily go to the wedding tomorrow right? Although he is an artist of Xingyao, he is really popular so his schedule must be packed right?

While she is convincing herself of all this, Yu Wan unknowingly fell asleep.

The wedding of Xingyao’s Manager Guo will officially be held at 6 pm. Although Yu Wan did not personally take part in the planning of the wedding, she still arrived at the venue in the afternoon to see if there is anything she can help with. The wedding venue is at the Grand Europe Hotel, the most luxurious and largest hotel in A City.

The wedding sign has already been hung up at the entrance of the hotel along with a photo of the newlyweds. She glanced at the sign and saw the words “Groom Guo Gai.”

In her four years in the business, no matter how weird the newlywed’s names are, she would face them with a straight face and praise with a few words.

After she calmly accepted the name “Guo Gai,” she walked into the venue in her 5,188 dollar heels.

“President Wei, can I not go to tomorrow’s wedding? I still have a lot of work to do.”

At the meeting this morning, Wei Shao focused most of the attention on this wedding of Manager Guo’s. It is said that the newlyweds originally wanted to hold a forest-themed wedding and had even selected the venue already. However, the bride was unexpectedly found to be pregnant so they had to hurry the wedding to the end of the year rather than the one planned for next year. Although the planning was hurried, the bride’s request did not decrease. She still insisted on holding a forest wedding.

To have an outdoor wedding at the end of December, not only would the bride not be able to handle it, the guests as well. Finally, under Wei Shao’s consultation, she finally accepted the suggestion of having a forest-themed wedding indoors.

The wedding was personally planned by Wei Shao. Carrying the mentality of trying to learn from her boss, Yu Wan carefully studied everything around her. All she can say is, sure enough, the boss is the boss. Who knows how he got so many trees but he turned the venue into an environment filled with lush vegetation. Especially breathtaking is the two big trees framing both sides of the entrance that made people think they have walked into an actual forest.

His short black wavy hair looked equally impeccable with his bangs falling effortlessly on his brows.

Wei Shao’s handiwork is not only limited to this. In the center of the venue is a large stage where he arranged flowers and plants around it. Then he used mirrors and the lights in the room to make the stage glisten like a real lake.

“Hello, Miss Yu. It is nice to meet you.”

After looking around the site, as the first work taken by the company after moving to A City, she felt that it was a great start.

“You came.” Wei Shao walked over to Yu Wan when he saw her, “What do you think about the venue.”

Yu Wan sincerely flattered her boss, “Absolutely mind-blowing.”

Wei Shao smiled and looked down at her heels, “Nice shoes.”

Yu Wan replied, “It’s because it is flashing with the radiance of RMB.”

Wei Shao chuckled and didn’t continue to argue with her and had her help around. Yu Wan followed behind him and asked, “Boss, that….which celebrity will be coming to this wedding?”

Wei Shao rebutted, “Who told you celebrities will be coming?”

“Eh, isn’t Manager Guo an executive at Xingyao?”

Wei Shao turned to look at her, his eyes filled with inquiry, “Who do you want to see? I didn’t know you chase star.”

“….” Yu Wan shut her mouth and didn’t pursue the subject further.

Only a few artists from Xingyao came and when the banquet started, she still hasn’t seen Li Shen.

At 5 o’clock, the guests started to arrive. Yu Wan’s heart also started to waver. On the one hand, she is worried whether there will be any mishaps with the wedding while on the other, she is worried whether she herself would have any accidents.

Fortunately, everything she is worried about did not happen. Both the reception and the ceremony went very smoothly. Only a few artists from Xingyao came and when the banquet started, she still hasn’t seen Li Shen.

On the dance floor, the bride and groom have started dancing. When the atmosphere finally reached its climax, Yu Wan, feeling the infectious air, walked out holding a drink. The lights at the site carried an ethereal air which makes people unable to distinguish whether it is a dream or reality. In her daze, Yu Wan noticed a man sitting with his back facing her.

Yu Wan never thought she would hear Li Shen’s name come out of Wei Shao’s mouth.

His back view looked familiar. The smile on her lips stiffened as she tries to take a closer look. Her colleague Zhao Xin walked up to her with a smile and clinked their glasses, “Yu Wan, why are you standing here alone? Don’t you want to dance?”

Yu Wan moved her gaze from the man and smiled at Zhao Xin, “No, I’m not good at dancing.”

“Who cares, as long as you’re happy.” Zhao Xin sang a few lines of the music playing before asking her again, “Right, I heard you still went on a blind date with a fellow countryman while you were abroad?”

Because her boss has said this, Yu Wan naturally cannot refuse, “I got it.”

When Yu Wan heard the words blind date, she frowned, “Don’t mention it, I really thought it was a gathering of people from the motherland.”

“Haha, but I heard from President Wei that you talked to him for a long time.”

“……That’s because they started serving the food.” Moreover, it wasn’t any ordinary dish, it was prime steak.

Zhao Xin guffawed and almost spit out the wine in her mouth.

While the two were chatting, Wei Shao led a middle-aged man over. When Yu Wan and Zhao Xin saw them, they immediately organized their expression and manners. Wei Shao nodded and said, “This is Xingyao’s Director Hu. This is Yu Wan and Zhao Xin.

“Hello, Director Hu.”

“Hello.” Director Hu smiled and shook hands with them. He faced Wei Shao, “President Wei’s company is filled with beautiful people. They can jump ship and become a star at Xingyao.”

Wei Shao smiled apologetically, “They are not only good-looking they are also my talented employees.” He looked specifically at Yu Wan as he said this, “Yu Wan recently returned from abroad with a CWP. Maybe she can help with Director Hu’s daughter’s wedding.”

Looks like there are readers who have some confusion.

“Miss Yu is young and promising.”

Yu Wan replied, “Director Hu is overpraising.”

She and Director Hu conversed for a while and after Director Hu flattered her a few more times, he started introducing her to others, “Right, the one over there is the youngest manager in all of Xingyao’s departments. He is as young as Miss Yu. I will introduce you to him.”

He called out to a man’s back, “Xiao Wu.”

The man whose back faced Yu Wan and the two men sitting down looked over, “This is Manager Wu, Wu Mian. Next to him is….”

Director Hu paused and said with an “I understand you young people” look in his eyes, “You two must know him. This is the recently popular singer, Li Shen.”

Yu Wan can hear the sound of a string in her head break.

Like magic, the cheerful music and the noisy conversation in the banquet suddenly disappeared as if the world only has the man standing in front of her.

He wore a white suit with a corner of a square handkerchief sticking out from the left breast pocket. His short black wavy hair looked equally impeccable with his bangs falling effortlessly on his brows.

When he looked up, his eyes seemed to brighten up the entire banquet.

Zhao Xin who is standing next to Yu Wan suddenly shook causing all of Yu Wan’s feelings gradually return to her.

Li Shen’s gaze stayed a moment on Yu Wan before moving away. He followed Wu Mian and stood up. He is only two steps away from Yu Wan.

Carrying the mentality of trying to learn from her boss, Yu Wan carefully studied everything around her.

When Wei Shao saw Yu Wan looking oddly, a light crossed his eyes. Is Li Shen the star that she likes?

Zhao Xin likes to be straightforward. She stammered, “Li, Li, Li, Li Shen, hello! I like your songs very much! In a strange coincidence, my English name is also Lily!”

Wei Shao’s mouth pulled into a straight line, can you not be so starstruck? This month their company had at least 5 Lilys.

“Hello.” Li Shen nodded at Zhao Xin. His deep and charming voice shook Zhao Xin in place.

She glanced at the sign and saw the words “Groom Guo Gai.”

Director Hu doesn’t seem surprised that these young women like Li Shen. When he saw Yu Wan not saying anything, he helped introduce her, “This is Miss Yu Wan, President Wei’s competent helper.”

The sky had already darkened and it is quiet outside.

Wu Mian took the initiative to reach out and shake hands with Yu Wan, “Hello, Miss Yu. It is nice to meet you.”

Then he used mirrors and the lights in the room to make the stage glisten like a real lake.

“Nice to meet you too, Manager Wu.” Yu Wan calmly responded. Then she glanced at Li Shen who is standing next to him. She did not retract her hand and instead calmed her mind and smiled deeply, “Hello, Mr. Li.”
