He took the wine from the waiter. “Last time I was chased by one of my fans, and it was her who helped me out.”
“Do you know who she is?”
“I don’t know.”
Yang Qifeng lowered his voice and whispered into his ear. Not only did he mention Pei Zhi’s identity, but he also mentioned his friendship with Zhou Yanshen.
He couldn’t hide his excitement. “As long as you suck up to her, everything will be solved. We won’t have to worry anymore!”
Jiang Ye frowned. “You want me to use her?”
“How can you call that use? If she can help you while you are in trouble now, in the future, you can return the favor.”
“She has the Pei family backing her. She can have anything she wants. Why would she need a D-list celebrity like me to do her a favor?”
“Jiang Ye.” Yang Qifeng patted his shoulder heavily. “Don’t underestimate yourself. No one knows what will happen in the future.”
Jiang Ye lowered his head, looking conflicted.
He did not want to get close to others with ulterior motives. “Brother Qifeng, I still have two months.”
“Do you think two months is a long time?”
“We haven’t reached the point where I must rely on a woman yet, have we?”
Yang Qifeng rubbed his eyebrows.
He knew very well how stubborn Jiang Ye was, so he did not intend to force him to make a decision at this moment. “Then let’s talk to a few more directors.”
Jiang Ye nodded and followed him.
At the same time, two people looked at him from afar and whispered.
“Jiaojiao, isn’t he very handsome?” Pei Yilan held Lin Jiao’s arm, so excited that she wanted to jump up and scream.
“Yes, very handsome.”
“He looks so good in a suit! I really want to undo the buttons on his shirt and see…”
“Stop.” Lin Jiao interrupted her in time.
She gestured for her to calm down and asked about Jiang Ye, “Is he working for Brother Yan?”
“No.” Pei Yilan took two sips of champagne and suppressed her emotions.
She continued, “Brother Yan said that he’s in a small company called North something. He’s a D-list celebrity now and isn’t very famous.”
Now that Lin Jiao thought about it, she couldn’t help but find it funny that she thought Jiang Ye was a murderer.
She asked again, “Are you really planning to develop a relationship with him?”
“That’s right.”
“Then talk to him on WeChat. After you get to know him better, you can ask him out.”
Pei Yilan nodded repeatedly.
She stared at Jiang Ye, who was chatting with a few bald men, without blinking, not until the light suddenly turned dim.
Zhou Yanshen, who was in the spotlight, walked onto the stage under the gaze of many people. “Thank you, kind-hearted people, for joining the charity tonight. All the revenue from the charity auction tonight will be donated to the mountains of Lin City to build a school for children…”
A round of applause filled the hall.
After Zhou Yanshen finished speaking, the emcee picked up the microphone and introduced the items to the guests.
The price of the charity items was relatively low, starting at 5,000 to 6,000 yuan. No matter if they were interested in charity or not, they could all afford it.
Lin Jiao bought a painting for 30,000 yuan.
She handed the phone to Pei Yilan and asked her to pay. Then, she left her seat and went to the washroom.
But unexpectedly… She bumped into an annoying person.
“Miss.” Yuan Chen, who was blocking the door, revealed a smile that he thought was handsome.
His gaze wandered over her body and finally stopped on her eyes. “Can you give me your contact number?”
Lin Jiao wiped the water off her hands. “No.”
