After a round of renegotiating, finally everyone decided to go to the most expensive Chinese restaurant in City A tonight, TianXiaJu. After hearing the results, Du YouWei sighed: “You really can’t imagine the bliss of the rich. TianXiaJu is the place where Zhang ShaoYan eats daily.”

Han Yang: “…” Give him more time, and he’ll undoubtedly come up with something more expensive!

YanYan Media is currently has one car and a driver. Zhang ShaoYan personally came to pick up Du YouWei, and the rest took the company’s car to TianXiaJu.

Ashamed to say, this is the first time for Gu Shi and the others came to TianXiaJu for dinner. In order to prevent others from seeing that he was “Grandma Liu” [1] who had never seen the world, Han Yang deliberately stepped out of the way that his six relatives did not recognize him.

[1] Grandma Liu is a character in “A Dream of Red Mansions ” written by Cao XueQin. She is a sophisticated old woman from a poor peasant family in the countryside.

“…” The other three unanimously moved a few steps away from him, as if they were afraid of being infected by his mental retardation.

The lady led them to the private room and left, Han Yang looked at the closed door of the private room in front of him, with a distressed expression: “Do you think it is good for us to go in now? What if the boss and QiYe are doing something unholy inside?” 

“…” There was another silence for everyone.

Finally, Gu Shi raised his hand and knocked on the door, and before he could speak, the door of the room was opened from inside. The door was opened by the waiter inside, and when he saw that they were all here, he asked Zhang ShaoYan: “Is it possible to send in the food now?”

“Yes.” Zhang ShaoYan nodded, and the waiter went out. Gu Shi and the others walked in and greeted them, sounding a bit formal.

Du YouWei smilingly greeted them and introduced them to Zhang ShaoYan: “You know them all, Gu Shi, Meng Xi, Han Yang, Huang YueLin.”

She actively enlivened the atmosphere, but there was not much excitement at the dinner table. In front of Zhang ShaoYan, the big boss, the YanYan Media artists were not too open, yet everyone is eating without ambiguity.

On the way back, Han Yang kept saying that from now on, he could add one more line to his profile, called “Have dinner at the same table with Zhang ShaoYan”.

“…” Du YouWei felt that compared with them, her performance when she first saw Zhang ShaoYan could already be described as excellent.

After this meal, Gu Shi’s popularity is like a rocket, and with the popularity of “Jing Hong Zhai”, he continued to top in Weibo and Moments. Under the building of YanYan Media, there are also a large number of star-chasing girls who specially stayed for Gu Shi. There is even a public page that wrote a feature on this, treating Gu Shi as a case study in the entertainment industry, to analyze the reasons for his popularity.

Just like Du YouWei knew in her life, Gu Shi exploded with the role of Song Qiu.

YanYan Media’s mailbox was flooded with job offers even before “Jing Hong Zhai” was finished airing, and Du YouWei’s phone was nearly blown up. People are always calling her, trying to cast Gu Shi in their new drama, and brands are also contacting her, hoping to hire Gu Shi to represent their products.

Du YouWei helped Gu Shi accept two endorsements based on the memory of her previous life, but with so many offers, she didn’t have the energy to read them one by one. This takes a toll on her, who is about to take the final exam! It is imminent to find an agent for Gu Shi.

Zhang ShaoYan seems to always know Du YouWei’s dilemma, and always stands up to help her solve her troubles at the first time. “Remember what my mother said before, the apprentice that her original agent took?”

Du YouWei nodded after hearing Zhang Shaoyan’s words: “I remember, but at that time Gu Shi was still a small artist, and she seemed to have concerns. Is she willing to come out now?”

Zhang ShaoYan said: “She said she wants to meet Gu Shi and talk face to face.”

“Good.” A manager is indispensable to an artist, and it is still necessary for both sides to meet and get to know each other, “What time? Where to meet?”

“You set it on your side, after all, Gu Shi has more itineraries than before.”

“Okay, then I’ll take a look at it later, and I’ll be sure to tell you.”

“Mm.” After Zhang ShaoYan finished speaking, he suddenly gave a low laugh, “At first, when I invested in your entertainment company, I didn’t think about how much money you would make, but now it seems that you may be quite suitable for this industry.”

He is not only talking about Gu Shi, but also about Ye WenXiu and Xu Hang who were in the training camp. As the show aired, Ye WenXiu and Xu Hang gradually stood out among the many contestants, especially, Ye WenXiu, with his “YiQi JueChen” [2] face and acquired efforts, became the first contestants to get an A. After entering the audience voting session, his results will only get better and better.

[2] The modern meaning of “YiQi JueChen” is someone who is capable of doing something that is beyond the reach of regular people. It’s also used to describe rushing away from the world on a fast horse.

Zhang ShaoYan rarely praises people, so when he praised her, Du YouWei’s tail instantly rose: “That’s right, I don’t dare to brag about anything else, but my eye for handsome men is still very good!”

“Oh?” Zhang ShaoYan said. The voice sounded a little dangerous, “You failed your math exams because you spent all your time looking at handsome guys, right?”

“…” Du YouWei wanted to smack herself in the mouth, “The handsome guy I looked at was mainly you, it was you that honed my eyesight!”

“Didn’t I teach you how to flatter?”

“…That’s too!” These words made Zhang ShaoYan laugh again: “Okay, I have a meeting later. You can set the time and place and contact my mother directly.”

“Okay!” After Du YouWei hung up the phone, she went to go through Gu Shi’s schedule. Gu Shi is presently promoting a TV series in addition to advertisements. The schedule is extremely tight. She discovered a gap, spoke with Gu Shi first, and then informed Yan Xin.

Although Zhang ShaoYan was unable to attend the meeting on the scheduled date, the negotiations went smoothly, and the contract was signed on the spot. Now that Gu Shi has both an agent and an assistant, Du YouWei’s burden has been lightened a lot, and she can finally…concentrate on her revision!

After having an agent, Gu Shi’s work progressed more smoothly, and his Weibo followers also made great strides to the tens of millions. The billboards on the street gradually have Gu Shi’s face, and the topic of conversation among the students are always Gu Shi.

It was not until the first snowfall in City A suddenly fell that Du YouWei realized that so much time had passed. In her last life, she jumped from Sanqin Bay on the day of the first snowfall in City A and ended her miserable life.

And in this life, she stood in the largest office of YanYan Media, watching the whole city gradually being dyed white by the snow outside the window. For some reason, she suddenly missed Zhang ShaoYan. She called him and wanted to invite him to dinner.

The phone rang for a few times before being picked up. Zhang Shaoyan’s pleasant voice came from the receiver reached Du YouWei’s ears: “What’s wrong?”

Du YouWei curled up the corners of her mouth, with some excitement in her voice: “Zhang ShaoYan, did you see it snowing?”

Standing in front of the window, Zhang ShaoYan raised his eyes and glanced out of the window, his eyes tinged with a glim of happiness: “Mm, I saw it.”

“This is the first snow this winter. Oh, to celebrate, let’s go eat a meal together!”

Zhang ShaoYan looked at the snowflakes outside the window and said to Du YouWei on the other end of the phone: “We’ll have dinner together, there’s no need to find a reason; sunny days, cloudy days, rainy days, snowy days, as long as you like, every day can be.”

“…Wow, you actually say such things?” Du YouWei seemed to see the iron tree blossom.

Zhang ShaoYan himself was also surprised that he could say such things, but after meeting Du YouWei, he has done a lot of things beyond his imagination: “Ahem, but I’m still in meeting with clients in Sanqin Bay, dinner may have to wait a while.”

Du YouWei froze for a moment and repeated in a murmur, “You’re at Sanqin Bay?”

“Mm, what’s wrong?”

Du YouWei didn’t speak for a long time, in her last life, on the day she jumped from Sanqin Bay, Zhang ShaoYan was actually also in Sanqin Bay?

“Du YouWei?” Zhang ShaoYan called her over the phone, a little worried. Du YouWei came back to her senses and said to him, “Oh, then I’ll go to Sanqin Bay to look for you now.”

Zhang ShaoYan considered it for a while and was still reluctant to make Du YouWei take a trip in the snowy day: “It’s better to wait until I’m done my meeting and go over to pick you up.”

Du YouWei has rarely disagreed with Zhang ShaoYan, but she did today: “It’s better for me to go to you, I happen to wish to go to Sanqin Bay to have a look.”

“Why?”

Du YouWei said with a smile: “In the summer, we watched a firework there, and in the winter, we watched the first snowfall together there, isn’t it very romantic!”

Zhang ShaoYan smiled and said, “Okay, call me when you get there.”

“Okay, see you later then.”

“See you later.” Zhang ShaoYan hung up the phone and walked back to where he was just now, “Sorry for the long wait.”

The person he was meeting with was not annoyed that he had left for a call for so long, but looked at him curiously: “I heard that QiYe Qi has a little girlfriend, hiding as deep as a treasure, now it seems that the rumors are right?”

Zhang ShaoYan sat down on the sofa opposite him, not at all flustered by his teasing, nor did he deny it, he only asked indifferently: “Heard from whom?”

The other party changed the subject with a witty smile, but couldn’t help thinking in his heart, as expected, ‘he hid it deeply’: “I guess QiYe has an appointment with a beautiful woman later, so let’s talk faster.”

The driver had sent Du YouWei to Sanqin Bay before Zhang ShaoYan’s meeting ended. She sent Zhang ShaoYan a message, informing him that she would be waiting for him at the same location where she had been watching the fireworks.

The snow hadn’t stopped, and Du YouWei stood alone by the sea, exactly the same as in her previous life. But it is also completely different. In her last life, she came here to welcome the God of Death, but in this life, she was waiting for her lover.

She looked at the snowflakes, and hummed a well-known tune in her previous life: “Snowflakes, snowflakes, first thing in the morning you bloom to me…”

Last time, she sang this song and jumped from here. This time, she heard light footsteps after she finished singing.

She turned her head and saw Zhang ShaoYan, who was wearing a long coat, walking in the snow. He did not have an umbrella, and a fine layer of white snow fell on his shoulders. His face was a little blurred in the snow, but Du YouWei could feel that his gaze had fallen on her from the beginning to the end.

Du YouWei raised a smile at him and asked him: “Did I sing well?”

“It’s an improvement.” Zhang ShaoYan walked to her side and raised his hand to wipe the snow off her clothes, “Why don’t you even know how to use an umbrella?”

“Didn’t you not do it either?” Du YouWei bristled, then smiled again, “But then we can be together until our heads white!”

“…Where did you learn that mushy words?”

“You just said it on the phone. It’s so good!” Du YouWei wanted to imitate him, repeating what he just said. Which got her too excited, and the soles of her shoes were wet by the snow suddenly slipped, leaning toward the sea.

Zhang ShaoYan fiercely grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms.

Du YouWei froze. She vaguely remembered that in her previous life, just before she closed her eyes, a person also used this uncontrolled force to firmly grasp her wrist.
