Chapter 265. The anticipated feature (2)
"Can't you stop walking around? People are looking at us with strange gazes because you are doing it for over half an hour."
Ma Li said as she looked at Lily who was going back and forth from one spot to another and there were no signs of her stopping either.
"I can't calm down."
Lily said as she continued to walk.
'We will surely be thrown out from here because of her.'
Ma Li thought as she took a deep breath.
They were currently sitting in the lounge area in the office of Top star entertainment. It was a place they had never dreamed of entering.
All the members of Starlights were already fascinated with the office, since the moment they had entered.
It was only Lily who wasn't even glancing at her surroundings because of her nervousness.
"Who are they?"
"Do you know them? It's the first time I have seen them."
"They don't look like trainees."
Ma Li heard some whispers of the passing employees but she can only glance at them awkwardly and say sorry.
At that moment, she just wished that no one would report them as suspicious people to the security guards.
"Do you really think that Xin Ren will feature in our song?"
Zhen Shi suddenly turned towards her and asked.
Although Ren had promised the feature, Zhen Shi still had doubts in his mind. His concern was also understandable.
Even if Ren agreed to the feature, it will all depend on his agency in the end.
They were just a small time band and not many people know of them. No agency would want to take such a risk.
"We are already here. If he didn't have any intentions to do the feature, then he would not have called us here today."
"What if there were objections from his agency?"
Ma Li lowered her head and replied in a whisper, when she heard that.
"Actually, I was also worried about that."
Not just her, all the members of the band were worried about the same thing. They can't help but worry about it.
It was just Lily who was not worried or one can say that she was worried for something completely different.
"They won't just refuse us straight away, right?"
Zhen Shi said with a nervous look but Ma Li just shook her head. Her face was saying that she was not sure about it.
"Ahhh…."
At that moment, both of them suddenly heard Lily's voice. They quickly turned their head around and saw that Lily was on the ground.
'Damn!!'
"Who are you? Can't you see where you are walking?"
As Lily was nervous, her emotions were in disarray and she had forgotten her rationality for a short moment.
That's why, she shouted at the person who she bumped into.
"I'm sorry."
"At least you know how to apologize."
Lily said as she stood up from the ground. Then, she examined the face of the person she had bumped into.
The person was wearing a suit and there was an old looking watch on his hand. He looked to be in his late 40s.
'Is he an employee here?'
She thought in her head and at that moment, she heard a familiar voice from besides the person who she had bumped into.
"Lily."
"Ah, Ren. You are here!"
The familiar person was Ren who was looking at her with a strange look.
"I thought you were talking with the director. Did the talk finish? What does the director say?"
Lily immediately bombarded Ren with various questions but Ren's next words were enough to stunned her.
"Lily, he's the director.…"
Ren said in a sighing tone as he pointed at the person next to him. The person who Lily had bumped into was actually Director Zhao.
'The Director!!'
It took a second but realisation soon dawned upon Lily's face. She looked at Director Zhao again, but this time she was much more focused.
'Come to think of it, his suit looks branded and the watch on his hand looks like an antique.…'
"I'm really sorry!! I didn't recognize you and made a mistake. If you gave me another chance, I would be sure to satisfy you."
Lily immediately made a full 90% bow and said in a loud voice.
All the people walking around in the hallway stopped and looked at Director Zhao and Lily. Their gazes were not normal.
Everyone in the agency knows of Director Zhao. He was the director of the acting department and the acting department was the most prosperous place currently in the agency.
Because of that, everyone knows of Director Zhao. Even the trainees have heard of his face.
On the other hand, Lily was a pretty girl with an oval face and long legs. Her big b.r.e.a.s.ts were even sticking out from her top.
People can't help but think about some absurd and strange things in their mind, especially when they heard Lily's words.
The word 'satisfy' can have many meanings.
Of course, Lily didn't mean it that way but the people in the hallway don't know of that.
'Sigh!'
Director Zhao could not help but sigh when he saw those gazes. He was sure that rumours would soon spread throughout the agency.
It would take quite a lot of time to sort it out.
"So, she is the leader of the band, Lily?"
"Yeah…."
Ren nodded slowly with an awkward expression on his face. He wanted to frown at that moment, but no frown left his mouth.
* * *
"Pant. Pant. Pant!"
Xiao Rin heaved her c.h.e.s.t up and down as she took deep breaths. She was panting because she had just come back from her shooting.
She has picked up an action movie recently and she has a lot of action scenes in it.
Although the more dangerous action scenes were done by the stuntmen, she was still doing the less dangerous ones.
Moreover, she also has to go on a meeting with the CEO of a fashion brand after that.
"Should we cancel the meeting with the CEO?"
Chief Han said as he looked at her from the front seat of the van.
He was working with Xiao Rin for over an year and he knows that she has a bad habit of pushing herself to the brim.
"No, I can't do that."
Xiao Rin said immediately as she stood up. She was looking fine now, but there was still a lot of sweat on her forehead.
"You can do that if you want to. I can't compromise without your health."
Chief Han said as he turned the AC on.
"No, I'm fine."
'She's working too hard when she should enjoy life.'
Chief Han frowned thinking about it.
Xiao Rin has two advertis.e.m.e.nts on the weekends and she has already signed four projects for the future.
Her weekend drama will release next month. So, there would be some promotions for them.
It was a hectic schedule.
Chief Han knows that the entertainment industry is known to exploit celebrities but Xiao Rin was exploiting herself.
"Are you sure? The CEO of the fashion brand wanted you to have dinner with him….alone."
Cases like this were common in the industry. The business industry and the entertainment industry were joined with each other in more than one way.
It was common for CEO's or presidents of big companies to have dinner or lunch with young and famous actresses.
One is not even sure that it will end on just dinner.
There were even police cases about CEOs of big companies forcing themselves on the actress.
Scandals about it are also not uncommon but it was just the way of the industry. One can't do anything about it.
Xiao Rin was also slightly scared when she heard that but if she didn't go to the dinner, then she could lose out on a big deal.
That's why, she said.
"I will be fine."
"Ah, okay. Just call me if something happened."
"Thank you."
"You don't have to thank me. It's my job as your manager."
Chief Han said while thinking about another bad habit of Xiao Rin.
She was too stubborn!
