Dimpled Sister had quite a fright and quickly gave Luo Qiao a call, “Daddy Luo, Daddy Luo, am I on my way to fame?”

Right at that moment, Luo Qiao was undressing, holding her phone in one hand while trying to unbutton her cheongsam buttons with the other. As she heard Mu Lan’s remark, she laughed. “You should have been popular long ago.”

Even if she weren’t popular, Luo Qiao would still have done her part in promoting her.

Initially, when she was doing well in the entertainment industry, she had friends too. But eventually? Three months after the exposé on her happened, the only friend standing by her was Mu Lan.

Not only that, but Mu Lan also had a great personality and good looks, and she was capable. So why shouldn’t she be popular?

“Be a good girl, I’ll celebrate with you after work tomorrow.”

“Woah… listen to yourself. I’m like a vixen doted on by the great CEO. I’m smitten.”

Laughing again, Luo Qiao shook her head as she hung up.

The cheongsam was rather tight-fitting and Luo Qiao was hopping about as she tried to undress. Just as she managed to free a shoulder, she found herself looking right into the eyes of a man who was standing calmly by the door.

“Ah!” Luo Qiao staggered back and found herself falling onto the carpet!

Turning a bright scarlet instantly, she said angrily, “Ming Siran, don’t you know how to knock?”

“I did, you didn’t hear it.” The man showed no signs of retreating even as she tried to cover herself. Instead, he strode in with his lanky legs, bent over and swept her up into his arms.

Luo Qiao’s back stiffened as she froze. The man had picked her up like he was picking up a cat. He didn’t put her down onto the bed. Instead, he stared at her without shifting his position.

For once, he wasn’t wearing a tie. His expression was relaxed and his peach blossom eyes were slightly narrowed. He was inexplicably attractive.

Luo Qiao could smell alcohol on him. She widened her eyes. “You’ve been drinking?”

He replied in his seductive voice, “Uh huh.”

Luo Qiao demanded, “Let me down!”

In a daze, she seemed to have heard him chuckle as he let go of one of his hands. In a panic, Luo Qiao reflexively put her arms around his neck and yelled, “What are you doing!”

Her lipstick was a little smudged and he reached out to gently rub it. “You even have makeup on, huh?”

It was an ordinary gesture but when he did it, it was ridiculously suggestive.

With her back tense like she was ready for battle, Luo Qiao retorted, “I haven’t seen you in two or three years, you’re becoming less and less human.”

It was only after he stared at her to his heart’s content that he put her down on the bed. Immediately, she took a pillow and aimed it at his face.

The man tilted his head and easily dodged it. His lanky body hovered by the bed, one hand in his trouser pocket. Taking out a key from his pocket, he placed it on the table. “This is the key to the garage, you can pick any of the cars to use.”

“Why should I use your car?”

His only reply was a smirk. “I have no objections if you want to pay me a rental fee.”

Luo Qiao was speechless.

…

The following day, Luo Qiao met up with Mu Lan to celebrate as promised. They went for good food and a soak in the hot spring after that and had fun until 9 in the evening.

She got a massage therapist in to give her a massage on her shoulders while Mu Lan tut-tutted from the side, “So this is the sort of simple and dull life that you wealthy people live.”

Luo Qiao, with her long legs, slender waist and glowing skin, did not look up. She hummed, “It’s really comfortable, try it.”

Mu Lan shook her head and said, “No way, I’m ticklish.” She took out her cell phone and sat by the side surfing Weibo and reading flattering comments from the netizens. She amused herself for a while before she surfed onto a new site – Zhang Lingling’s new Weibo post.

— Zhang Lingling V: I’ve been in the circle for five years and this was the first time I’d ever been insulted to this extent. I feel like dying.

Mu Lan’s heart skipped a beat. What evil was Zhang Lingling the two-faced bitch up to now? As she scrolled to the comments. Her fans too, were bewildered and stunned.

[??? What is this about?]

[… What insult?]

[What’s the matter? Someone’s in a bad mood?]

[Don’t scare us!!]

[Lingling, what’s the matter with you?]

[Hehe, creating drama again I suppose… If you feel like dying then why don’t you just kill yourself?]

[Guy above, can you be more human in your words? Evil fans get out of here, okay?]
