Slacker Agent

  The car had been driving for a long time, and the two girls were still enthusiastically looking at the night view outside the window. It was already approaching dawn, and in the darkness, the high-rise buildings seemed like giant beasts, with neon lights flashing around them. The Maserati swam through the sea of lights, like a mischievous little fish, occasionally overtaking its companions and wagging its tail.

  Dongzi's driving skills are very good and stable. Unlike his peers who only pursue speed, he drives fast but makes people feel at ease.

  After circling twice, Mei Yu finally sensed that something was off. She turned her head, patted Dong Zi's shoulder and asked: "Are we measuring the size of the Fourth Ring?"

  Han Jiali was reminded by her and also came to her senses, she looked at the time on the LCD display in the car, the pointer accurately pointed to one o'clock, she playfully stuck out her tongue and said with regret: "Let's go back, although I still want to take a ride, but after two o'clock the landlord will close the door, this is non-negotiable."

  Dongzi smiled at them and turned the steering wheel, directly turning back from the next intersection. Han Jiali gave him directions on the side, and soon they returned to the small alley where the Siheyuan was located.

  He politely opened the car door for the two ladies. Dong Zi stood up straight, smiled at Han Jia Li and said: "Wait for me to contact the photographer before I notify you."

  "Okay, I'll wait for your news."

  Tongzi nodded at Meiyu again and turned around to get on the bus. Meiyu suddenly called out to him, "I still don't know your name, sorry about that."

  Dongzi was taken aback for a moment, then smiled awkwardly and walked back to Meiyu's front, extending his hand politely and introducing himself: "My surname is Liu, my name is Dong."

  Mei Yu also grasped his hand frankly and smiled shallowly: "My stage name is Mei Yu."

  When actors introduce themselves, they generally don't mention their real names. Their stage names are often more well-known than their real names, which is also an unwritten rule in the entertainment industry.

  Liu Dong was stunned for a moment. Mei Yu, and Yu Mei, these two names seemed to be related. The doubts in his heart resurfaced again. What exactly was the relationship between this girl and Yu Mei?

  Mei Yu smiled slightly at Liu Dong's stunned face and pulled Han Jiali's hand into the door.

  As he watched the door close in front of him, Liu Dong suddenly shook his head. This girl was full of mystery, and he became more and more interested in her.

  Back in the small room, Mei Yu and Han Jiali brought some water back to wash up. Mei Yu looked at Han Jiali who was anxiously checking her watch and couldn't help but say: "She probably won't be coming back, it's already two o'clock."

  Han Jiali sighed heavily and looked a bit despondent: "Rongrong has never stayed out all night before."

  Plum rain couldn't help but think of the past, the girls who had nothing and achieved success step by step, partners who moved forward together eventually took different paths. Her face was filled with a hint of nostalgia as she comforted Han Jiali: "The path of an actor is very lonely, sooner or later you will have to walk alone, friends are just a beautiful scenery on your journey."

  Looking at Han Jiali with a thoughtful expression, Mei Yu quietly turned off the light, flipped over and got into bed, soon falling asleep.

  The next day, Meiyu and Han Jiali slept until the sun was high in the sky. When they finally got up, it was almost noon. After washing up, Han Jiali simply cooked a small dish and boiled some porridge.

  Two people ate hastily, Han Jiali went out for a walk, and Mei Yuqin felt shy and thought of calling her agent, so she excused herself and didn't go.

  Mei Yu had thought about introducing Han Jiali to Li Ronghua's agency, but she considered it carefully. This was Liu Dong's kindness and also a favor to Liu Dong, so she didn't want to rashly bring Han Jiali along again, which would be very impolite behavior.

  Maybe we can talk about it later when there's another chance.

  Mei Yu picked up the business card, which was exquisitely crafted with a thin metal sheet that shone brightly in silver light. The name "Li Ronghua" and phone number were engraved on it in gold foil, simple yet elegant.

  This business card looks like a very private thing, and the phone number should be Li Ronghua's personal contact information.

  Mei Yu felt that she had to buy a mobile phone, it was very inconvenient to contact the outside world. She made up her mind and grabbed her business card, just about to lock the door when she bumped into Qin Yong who had just returned. Mei Yu smiled at Qin Yong, but Qin Yong gave her a cold glance without saying anything and went straight into the house.

  Mei Yu shrugged, she vaguely guessed that Qin Rong's abnormality came from somewhere. For the originally close Han Jiali and Qin Rong, she was like an unexpected guest who inserted herself midway, and this unexpected guest had unexpectedly stolen Han Jiali's friendship, Qin Rong probably couldn't switch roles for a while.

  This experience, Mei Yu had also experienced it before. She once had a close relationship with another girl, but later that girl got another bosom friend. When the three of them went shopping together, the other two would discuss the same clothes in front of her, making her feel like an outsider. She felt lost for a long time because of this. Sometimes, friendship can also be very selfish.

  Mei Yu shook her head, casting aside these unnecessary emotions. For her, she just wanted to walk further and further on the path of performing arts. These little girls' emotions would eventually pass with the wind anyway.

  "Hello, I'm Meiyu. I was introduced by Liu Dong. Are you Mr. Li Ronghua?"

  A simple sentence makes it clear who you are and asks if they are the person you're looking for.

  Many people pick up the phone and ask if the other person is a certain someone, leaving the person on the other end bewildered and helpless. In fact, self-introduction is crucial as it can give strangers a bright and generous good impression.

  The person on the other end fell silent for a moment, then a low, husky male voice came through the receiver, sounding like he was still hungover: "Are you his new girlfriend?"

  Plum rain was taken aback, awkwardly smiled: "Not."

  The other party kept asking: "Then are you his newly acknowledged sister?"

  Mei Yu coughed and hastily explained, "Not really."

  She responded with a thoughtful "oh", seemingly pondering, then suddenly enlightened and affirmatively said: "He's interested in you, but hasn't gotten his hands on you yet!"

  Mei Yu's face stiffened and she retracted her smile, saying faintly: "I only met Liu Dong once, please don't misunderstand again."

  The other person seemed to lose interest all of a sudden, and lazily said: "So he actually gave you my phone number, looks like he really has high hopes for you, tsk tsk."

  Mei Yu had a strong urge to slam down the phone, her slender fingers tightly gripping the receiver, with bulging veins on her hand. As a former female boxer who had studied several popular boxing techniques, if Li Ronghua were in front of her now, she would not hesitate to punch his nose off without any second thought.
