She was too lazy to coax her, and simply opened the car door, saying, "Fine, take it or leave it."
When Chen Liuying looked back at the spot, Liang Shi was no longer there.
Chen Liuying got into the van, her anger blazing, and the car drove away from the street.
Neither of the two people in the car spoke for a moment.
After a while, Chen Liuying chuckled softly, "Bai Weiwei, did you watch Xu Qingzhu's live stream today?"
Bai Weiwei bit her lip, "How could I watch? I went with you to the audition."
"I saw it." Chen Liuying relaxed and leaned back in the car seat. "Putting everything else aside, Xu Qingzhu is really quite beautiful."
"You like her?" Bai Weiwei immediately became alert.
Chen Liuying denied it, "How could that be?"
As he spoke, he took Bai Weiwei's hand and pulled her into his arms. His hand was already restless, landing on her waist and slipping under her clothes like a fish.
"Don't move." Bai Weiwei pressed down on her hand. "You haven't explained yourself clearly yet."
Chen Liuying smiled roguishly, "I already said, how could that be? Weiwei."
She leaned close to Bai Weiwei's ear and said, "I've already told you that you're the person I love most. But what about you? Do you feel a sense of accomplishment watching me get bullied?"
"No." Bai Weiwei couldn't hold back her fidgeting hands, and her body gradually softened, melting in her arms like a puddle of water. Even her voice carried a hint of seduction. "I didn't see you being bullied."
"No? Do you think I'm not as rich and powerful as Liang Shi, so you don't like me anymore?" Chen Liuying knew her weakness best, and looked at her with a mischievous expression as she was confused and infatuated. "But Weiwei, the person who loves you the most is me."
"I didn't," Bai Weiwei argued, still retaining a sliver of reason. "If it were for power, why would I be with you?"
Chen Liuying's expression changed, and she said disdainfully, "You finally told the truth."
A muffled groan suddenly came from inside the car.
Even the driver couldn't help but frown.
There's no one there...
never mind.
Be blind.

After finishing his audition, Liang Shi rewarded himself with a fast food meal.
She usually eats a low-oil, low-salt diet, and fast food restaurants are places she almost never sets foot in.
They only come when they are particularly happy or unhappy.
As soon as she stepped into the fast food restaurant, she received a message from Zhou Li: [Hello? Have you finished your audition?]
Liang Shi replied instantly: 【Yes, what's up, Sister Li?】
Zhou Li sent a voice message: "Something came up at the company and I might have to leave work a little late, so could you please pick up Rainbow? You know her kindergarten, where she's usually left with the teacher for a while, but since it's Friday, parents have to pick her up after school. So could you do me a favor? I'll treat you to dinner another day. After you pick her up, you can take her back to my house, or you can drop her off at a fast food restaurant."
This is as if Rainbow were an object.
Liang Shi asked, "Do you need me to deliver it to the company?"
Zhou Li: "No need, you'll have to work overtime if you come. Consider today as your day off."
Liang Shi: "..."
She accepted Zhou Li's kindness and messaged her: "Okay, I'll go pick it up."
So she went to Rainbow's kindergarten instead.
When she went to pick up Rainbow, the teacher asked, "Do you know this older sister?"
“Hmm.” Rainbow maintained her aloof demeanor. “She’s my mother’s colleague.”
After the teacher looked her over, she called Zhou Li to confirm before releasing her.
As soon as Liang Shi received Rainbow, he half-squatted down and asked in a low voice, "Which one is Su Yu?"
She still remembered the last time she came to find Qi Jiao, only to be disappointed and leave empty-handed.
Although Qi Jiao denied that Su Yu's mother was Su Yao, Liang Shi felt that he might find new clues from Rainbow.
“Look, over there.” Rainbow pointed to a little girl in a pink princess dress not far away and said, “She’s being picked up by her family’s housekeeper.”
Looking over, Liang Shi saw a black van.
It must be quite valuable.
However, all the children who can attend this place are either rich or noble. Although Liang Shi did not ask, she felt that Rainbow's father must be someone extraordinary.
Soon, the nanny van drove away, and Liang Shi felt a little disappointed.
"Don't her parents ever pick her up?" Liang Shi asked again.
Rainbow replied nonchalantly, "I don't observe who picks her up every day, how would I know?"
Liang Shi: "...Okay."
No sooner had the words left her lips than a clear, crisp voice rang out: "Auntie!"
Liang Shi turned around and saw Lingdang running towards him like the wind, while Sun Meirou stood smiling not far away.
Fearing that the bell would fall, Liang Shi immediately opened his arms to catch her.
Lingdang giggled with delight, but immediately complained, "I told Mom it was you, but she didn't believe me!"
"Looks like our Lingdang has good eyesight." Liang Shi patted her head. "You go to this kindergarten too?"
"Yes," Bell said, puzzled. "Didn't you come here to see me?"
Liang Shi: "..."
She coughed softly and pulled Rainbow over. "I'm here to pick up my colleague's child. Her name is..."
Before she could finish speaking, Lingdang blurted out, "I know, Zhou Caihong."
"You know each other?" Liang Shi was shocked.
Lingdang snorted softly, "She made Shen Yiran cry last time."
Liang Shi: "..."
She hadn't intended to be a mediator for the children, but Lingdang insisted on following her and even said she wanted to sleep with her at night.
Sun Meirou tried to persuade her for a long time to no avail. Lingdang was already looking aggrieved and about to cry. She pouted and asked, "Auntie, don't you like me anymore?"
Liang Shi: "..."
She couldn't withstand the onslaught of cuteness and immediately agreed.
Sun Meirou smiled apologetically at her: "I'm sorry, Third Sister."
"It's nothing, it's all part of the job," Liang Shi said. "I'll take her back after she's had her fun."
After saying goodbye to Sun Meirou, Liang Shi took the two children to a fast food restaurant.
She was so happy that her eyes almost disappeared.
Bell was quite well-behaved. Even though she had a grudge against Rainbow, she didn't provoke him. At most, she would give Rainbow a cold look.
Liang Shi pretended not to see it.
While busy taking care of her two children, she still remembered to turn on Minghui Jewelry's live stream, only to find that the live stream had already ended.
When she opened Weibo, she was surprised to find that Minghui Jewelry was trending on Weibo.
...?
Minghui would actually spend money to buy trending topics?
Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that there were quite a few trending search terms, mostly appearing in the latest searches. These terms included #The temperament of a rich heiress# #As expected, it has to be the Sheng family# #Is Xu Qingzhu considering acting# #Minghui Jewelry did not disappoint this year# #The dreamy autumn series is so beautiful#.
These are all positive terms.
Liang Shi ate while browsing comments.
[What kind of incredible script did Xu Qingzhu get?! A genius! A beauty of cosmic proportions! An elite!]
Compared to this, I seem like I was sent down from heaven just to make up the numbers.
[Her aura is just too extraordinary, waaaaah, my sister is killing me!]
[Let's be frank, I want to sleep with her. doge]
[Sigh, who wouldn't want that?]
[...]
Xu Qingzhu has generated a lot of discussion online, mainly because several GIFs of her that have been circulating online are very beautiful.
One photo shows her smiling with her lips curled up, and the other shows her tucking her hair back.
Netizens are calling out to the film and television company.
[Can all workplace dramas be made to conform to this standard from now on?]
[Hey, can we sign her for a role? My Alpha DNA is kicking in.]
[Also, my shipping DNA has kicked in! Does anyone else think she and Yang Shuyan have a strangely compatible vibe?]
[A domineering, ruthless female villain Alpha X a seemingly innocent but actually cunning Omega from a wealthy family!!!]
[I'm ready, do you have a video, ladies?!]
[Picture included!]
[...]
Liang Shi, like a badger in a melon patch, followed the clues given by netizens and stumbled upon the Weibo post.
There's a picture that a blogger photoshopped.
Yang Shuyan, dressed in a black and gold evening gown, stood in the corner, while Xu Qingzhu smiled, but her eyes were cold and aloof.
They didn't seem like a perfect match in my mind, but when this photo with such a great atmosphere came out, netizens turned into shipping machines.
[Let me ship them! I'm all for it!]
[Even though Ms. Xu hasn't entered the entertainment industry yet, I'm already imagining what kind of movies she'll be filming.]
