Ming Shu finished removing her makeup. A pretty girl appeared in the mirror in front of her. Why would such a pretty person torture herself?

Ming Shu shivered and pulled down her hair. She walked out of the restroom.
The secretary had finished tidying her desk.

Boss Xu, you have a contract to sign this afternoon…
The secretary didn’t finish her sentence.
Ever since Xu Bei came to the company, she had always been putting on such scary makeup. The secretary never saw how Xu Bei looked without any makeup.


The secretary heard before that Xu Bei was really pretty, but due to her exaggerated makeup, she never noticed this at all.
Hence, when she suddenly saw her normal face without any makeup, the secretary was shocked.
Boss Xu really was pretty.
She felt strange too. What happened to Boss Xu today? Was she possessed?

The cellphone on the table rang. The secretary returned to reality and passed the handphone to Ming Shu.
The caller was Ermie.
Who is that?

Ming Shu thought for a while before finally remembering this name. It was one of Xu Bei’s bad friends.

Hey.

A girl’s friendly voice sounded on the phone.
Beibei, are you in the office now? We will come and fetch you in a while. Let’s go eat barbecued sheep tonight.



Ming Shu swallowed back her rejection.
Okay.


See you in a while.

Ermie.
Real name: Yangyang.
It was not her nickname. Her surname was Yang. Her parents didn’t put much effort into getting a name for her and just reused the surname.
Yangyang looked really obedient and gentle. Everyone liked her. However, this cute little girl was a martial arts talent. Judo, taekwondo, Taichi, there was nothing that she didn’t know. She was not as cute as her name at all.
Ming Shu took her phone and went down the building. She scanned past the row of luxury cars and walked toward a pink Lamborghini.

Beibei!

Ming Shu entered the car. The person beside her pounced on her and gave her a hug and a peck on her cheek. She blinked and asked curiously,
Beibei, why didn’t you put on makeup today?


It was too scary. It will make me lose my appetite.



Yangyang let her go and smiled as she mocked her.
I told you before that your makeup is really scary. Now you finally believe me. Beibei, your taste finally went back to normal.

Ming Shu:
…

That is the Host’s taste. It had nothing to do with me.


They should be there waiting already. Let’s go over.
Yangyang started the car.
Why did you decide to take over this broken company? Why did you do this to yourself?

Yangyang drove and spoke for the entire journey. She talked about her company, her bad friends, who got a new girlfriend, who slept with whom, whose family did what…
The location of the gathering was at a high-class clubhouse. The Host was an old customer here.
When they reached, the gathering was already ongoing. The atmosphere was really lively. There were girls and guys of all different ages.
Yangyang pushed the door open.
Dangdangdang—I’m here. Hurry up and welcome me.


Go to hell. Where is Beibei?
A guy sitting outside refuted her.
Didn’t you say that you went to fetch her?

Yangyang rolled her eyes.
Fang Qi, all you care about is Beibei. Do you still have me in your eyes? Beibei, why are you so slow?



She shouted at the person outside.
Ming Shu walked in. The private room turned silent. Everyone was looking at her.
Three seconds later, the room turned lively again.

Beibei, you finally didn’t draw your ghost-like makeup. I must go and redeem my vow to God tomorrow.


I can finally have a peaceful meal today. Amen.

Ming Shu’s mouth corners twitched. This bunch of people had been poisoned by the Host.
Fang Qi stood up and gave his seat to Ming Shu.
Boss Xu, come come come, I reserved a seat for you. With your status now, you must sit at the top seat and let us pray to you.


Forget it. It will be good enough if Beibei doesn’t destroy Beichen.
A long-haired girl covered her mouth and laughed secretly. She seemed to be joking around with her friend.
Ming Shu raised her eyebrows.
Do I look like someone that would destroy my company?

The people in the private room nodded their heads simultaneously.
Yes.



Ming Shu:
…

After fooling around for a while, Ming Shu finally sat down. Fang Qi asked the attendant to clear the table and start serving the dishes.
These people were really friendly with each other. There was no gap between them and they talked about anything to each other, including gossip and insider news.
Yangyang and Fang Qi were drinking with each other. Ming Shu and the long-haired girl ate the barbecued lamb. The girl was called Yidai. She looked gentle and sweet but in actuality, she was evil and naughty.
Yidai leaned toward Ming Shu.
Beibei, I heard that Huo Ting is back. Is that true?

Ming Shu was cutting her lamb meat so she didn’t hear clearly.
Who?


Huo Ting,
Yidai said louder.
The person who had an arranged marriage with you when you were young. Beibei, did you forget about him?

Ming Shu:
…

The evil arranged marriages of the rich families.
Plans.
Tsk, scheming.

Luckily, it was just a verbal agreement. There was no formal engagement.
In the storyline, the Host would be engaged to Huo Ting in the future, but Huo Ting was snatched away by Xia Lian in the end.

Huo Ting is back?
Yangyang came about smelling of alcohol and leaned on Yidai’s shoulder.
I heard that he’s very handsome. Beibei, you must grab the opportunity. Haha, maybe…

Yidai pushed Yangyang down.
The Huo family is very complicated. I think that with Beibei’s intelligence, it is not suitable for her.

Yangyang lay on the table and nodded her head in a daze.
True.

Ming Shu:
…
 Is it really all right for them to look down on my intelligence right in front of me?

Are their friendships fake?

Yidai and Yangyang discussed Ming Shu’s intelligence for more than ten minutes. The weird conversation only ended after Yidai left for another appointment.
Ming Shu ate her lamb quietly. How stupid is the Host?

After Yidai left, the door of the private room opened again. An exquisitely dressed girl walked in. There was heavy perfume on her. She smiled gently.
I saw Yidai outside just now so I guessed that you would be here.


Hanhan.
One of the guys stood up and greeted her excitedly.
Come and have a seat.

The atmosphere in the private room became weird. Everything became quieter.
Jiang Han appeared very comfortable and naturally sat beside the man. She pouted and glanced at him.
Why didn’t you call me when you come here?

The man explained hurriedly,
I thought that you were filming so I didn’t want to disturb you.

Ming Shu looked up slightly and the girl shifted her gaze over too. The Host didn’t seem to have a good impression of the girl. She didn’t even know what her name was.
Since it’s not someone important, let’s eat first.

We can never let down good food.

After the girl called Jiang Han came in, the atmosphere in the room was not as lively as before. Even Yangyang became quieter.
The guy was quite handsome too. His attention was all on Jiang Han and love was oozing out of his eyes. Anyone could see what was going on.
However, Jiang Han was not the guy’s girlfriend.
