"Xiao Bai, this is the takeout of the most famous private kitchen of the parent shark that I told you about last time. I don't know if you're used to it, but the dishes here are usually a little spicy..."
Deng Ziqi entered the room with ease and placed the dishes on the table like a virtuous wife.
In fact, most people had only seen Deng Ziqi in front of the camera. Who had seen this side of her life?
However, Lu Bai could not bear to do so.
Deng Ziqi's flight had been changed. He had waited outside his room for half a day in the middle of the night just to bring him supper. Even a young boy who had not graduated from high school could see his sincerity.
It was precisely because of this sincerity that Lu Bai found it difficult to reject him. However, he knew very well that he was not qualified to engage in any romantic love story at this stage.
Moreover, Deng Ziqi only saw the good side of him and did not know that he was carrying a huge debt of 600 million yuan. If she really found out, she might not even know how she would react.
"Teacher Zi Qi…"
"Hey, don't call me teacher anymore! I'm not much older than you! Calling me teacher makes me sound too old.”
"Sister Ziqi, thank you for your kindness, but I've already eaten supper.”
Lu Bai also pondered for a long time, carefully considering how to hint his thoughts so as not to hurt the girl's heart.
Deng Ziqi was indeed a smart woman. When she heard the implication of Lu Bai's words, her hand that was holding the lunch box hovered in the air, and the smile on her pretty face froze for a moment.
"Oh, I see. Can't you eat more? I ran a long way to buy it…"
Similarly, Deng Ziqi, this smart girl, was also using the implied meaning to express her feelings. After all, everyone was a smart person. There was no need to be too straightforward. It was fine as long as they could understand.
"I'm not eating."
Lu Bai didn't give him any room to turn things around because he knew very well that it was best to cut the Gordian knot quickly when it came to matters of the heart. It was better to have a short pain than a long one.
As expected, after Deng Ziqi heard this, his small hand in the air trembled slightly.
"Yes, I, I understand. Then I'll leave first. You should rest early…"
After saying that, Deng Ziqi did not dare to look at Lu Bai again. He lowered his head and left Lu Bai's room as if he was escaping, leaving behind a table full of exquisite dishes.
“......”
After Deng Ziqi left, Lu Bai subconsciously fell silent for a long time. Although he felt a little uncomfortable, he knew very well that what he did was the right thing to do.
She just didn't know what their relationship would be like when they met again after this incident. After all, Lu Bai had succeeded in challenging the Masked King Competition this time and had stayed on the stage.
Therefore, when the next episode of the Masked King Competition was broadcast, he and Deng Ziqi would still have to come to Long Shark to participate. It was inevitable that they would meet again.
At
noon the next day, Lu Bai arrived at the Imperial Capital and met up with Zhang Yadong, who was there to pick him up.
After leaving the airport, Lu Bai took the lighter from Zhang Yadong and lit a cigarette. He also threw a small note into the trash can.
On the note was a string of phone numbers and a hand-drawn heart. The stewardess had secretly given it to Lu Bai on the plane.
Speaking of which, after participating in the Masked King Competition, Lu Bai's fame was indeed different from before. He was immediately recognized by the flight attendants on the plane. Not only did they take a photo together, but a cute little flight attendant also secretly told Lu Bai that she was resting today and tomorrow and that her home was in the Imperial Capital.
Lu Bai had just turned 20 years old. He was famous, good-looking, and talented. He was indeed quite attractive to girls.
The little note was the contact information that the little air stewardess had secretly handed over. Unfortunately, she had originally set her heart on the bright moon, but the bright moon shone on the ditch and met Lu Bai, who only wanted to make money at this stage.
"Little White, are you tired? Why don't we go to the company first?"
Zhang Yadong was a senior executive of the company, and he was already middle-aged. However, in front of Lu Bai, who was only twenty years old, he still behaved humbly and did not put on any airs of an elder. This was also his outstanding point.
"Okay, then let's go to the company.”
Although Lu Bai had to share a portion of the profits with the company, Lu Bai also knew that being a celebrity was not a solo career.
He could live without an assistant or manager, but as a musician, he couldn't live without a production company. Otherwise, recording, post-editing, distribution, and copyright negotiations would all be troublesome.
If Lu Bai did all these things himself, then he would not have to do anything else all day long.
In addition, the structure of the company was not bad, and the higher-ups were easy to get along with. It was a company with great potential, so Lu Bai was willing to cooperate with them for a win-win situation.
"Xiao Bai, CEO Song wants you to be our company's chief music consultant.”
Zhang Yadong, who was driving, stole a glance at Lu Bai, who was sitting in the passenger seat. However, he did not see anything special on Lu Bai's cold face.
"Xiao Bai, I know you're afraid of trouble, so CEO Song specifically instructed you not to come to the company every day to be the chief music consultant.”
"You only need to come to the company every three to five days to put on a show and occasionally give pointers to the newcomers. The work content is not much, and your salary will be paid in full every month…"
In fact, the high-level executives of Maitian Music, who were familiar with Lu Bai's personality, did not expect Lu Bai to make any contributions to the company. They just wanted to deepen the relationship with Lu Bai through this method.
In wuxia novels, a chief music consultant was no different from an honorary elder who did nothing but get paid.
This was also the cleverness of the people from Wheatfield Music. They knew very well that it was more important to give charcoal in the snow than to add icing on the cake.
If he did not take advantage of the fact that Lu Bai was still a rookie to rope him in, was he going to wait until he became a superstar or something before running over to suck up to him? Would it still be their turn then?
Therefore, he had to place his bets as soon as possible on a stock with super potential like Lu Bai. He had to place a heavy bet!
"Yes, alright."
Lu Bai's response was simple and direct, but Zhang Yadong and the others were already used to it and never thought that Lu Bai was difficult to get along with.
"There's another thing. Xiao Bai, after your internet popularity, many big shots in the industry have taken the initiative to contact the company, hoping that the company can pull some strings and buy you a new song or something.”
"We've helped you filter out the average celebrities who don't have good character or who don't offer enough. However, there's one who offered an especially high price. I think you should meet her. After all, she's offering three times the market price…Moreover, the requirements are not high. A song of similar standard will do…"
