Chapter 157 - Your family of three – you, Li Jinyuan, and Huo Chengming (3)

The secretary immediately started talking before letting him have a chance to respond, “This is a very classic design. It’s appealing to most girls. Then there’s this one, this pair of shoes, this pair of earrings…. All of these are the ones that girls will want…”

Huo Chengming looked up and said to the sales person, “Wrap them all up.”

Secretary, “……” TvT Yup! She sure didn’t understand the world of the riches. 

Huo Chengming felt even more relieved after they were done shopping. 

Even if he was to run into that fool from the factory side, he would be able to control himself and now blow the other party’s head off.

“Let’s go.”

“Back to your hotel?” asked the secretary.

“No, to the next meeting.”

“….next meeting? Don’t you want to get some rest?”

“How can we rest before all the matters were taken care of?”

Hearing that, the secretary immediately felt a lot of respect for him. 

There was certainly a reason why he could be so successful at his young age. 

He was a workaholic!

With excellent self-discipline!

“Alright! I will go ahead and notify each and every single one of them,” said the secretary immediately.

“Mmm,” replied Huo Chengming, thinking that he would be able to return home sooner that way.

Zhong Yuhuan just stayed home and relaxed. When she had free time she’d paint, play the piano, or dance. Life couldn’t be any better. Yang Sen called her up to go out to dinner. Joining them were also Han Yingying, Zhuang Yongning, and other old friends from school. After graduation, they had all gone to different countries or schools, but they had kept in touch the entire time. Now that all of them had mostly returned to China, they would go out to dinner together. 

Zhong Yuhuan accepted the invite and went with Yang Sen to the restaurant.

They might have felt a little bit of awkwardness at the beginning but once they had sat down and had a couple drinks, the awkwardness was gone. 

As though they had gone back in time when they all followed Zhong Yuhuan around, sometimes to join in the fun of taking fencing lessons and sometimes to free combat classes. Then there were piano and violin. They even tried ballet for a few days there… there were more memories than they had time to recount.

After everyone had randomly talked about their recent experiences, Yang Sen said, “Li Jinyuan is very mighty now. Any backdoor for us?”

“What backdoor?” asked Zhong Yuhuan dubiously.

“Remember I had mentioned before that my sister had taken over the family business? They had a joint project with a TV station and wanted to do a reality TV with stars. My sister thought about me; I thought about you; then I thought about Li Jinyuan. Li Jinyuan is so popular now. I am sure he has countless invitations already. We will offer him the best contract but wanted to backdoor it and put ours on the top of the pile is all.”

Yang Sen smacked his lips and said, “Of course, if you would join too, all the more better.”

Zhong Yuhuan was completely baffled, “What does that have to do with me?”

“The TV station’s policy is to have a regular person join in every episode; else it won’t make the cut. You will make a great candidate. You were popular online not too long ago and being around Li Jinyuan for so many years, you two have tacit understanding of each other. Truth be told, just your family of three – you, Li Jinyuan, and Huo Chengming – will be a big draw…”

“What do you mean by ‘a family of three’?”

“Exactly what I said…” Yang Sen paused for a little then carried on. “I am serious. We will pay!”
