Wan Na almost couldn’t maintain the smile on her face, but after all, she had been in the entertainment industry for so many years. She would still do what she had to do on the surface.
After she sent Shi Man into the office respectfully, she turned around and rolled her eyes in disgust.
Of course, Shi Man did not care about her emotions.
After her brother’s company was established, she had not had the chance to take a look personally. Usually, it was her brother who brought his work home or called during the day to ask her about the details she had to pay attention to when working together.
This was the first time she had entered this huge office.
From the moment Shi Man stepped into the first floor, she realized that the company was filled with the same kind of green plants. Shi Man understood that this was a plant that Lin Yue liked.
In order to pursue Lin Yue, it was understandable for her brother to put more of Lin Yue’s favorite ornaments in the company. However, Shi Man looked at the current situation coldly and felt that it was a little too much.
In the office, Lin Yue sat behind her desk proudly. When she saw Shi Man, she had no intention of getting up. Instead, she crossed her feet and casually pointed at the chair opposite her. “Sit.”
Shi Man sat down opposite her expressionlessly. Her expression was no longer as pleasant as when she was on set.
Her intuition told her that the woman in front of her was no longer the cute and professional female celebrity, Lin Yue. She was now a serious businesswoman.
Shi Man narrowed her eyes and glanced over with her cold eyes. Her aura was not inferior to Lin Yue’s. “1 didn’t expect to hear others call you CEO Lin when we meet again. I’m really not used to it.”
Lin Yue chuckled and personally poured her a cup of tea. She said with interest, “Don’t be so hostile to me. Didn’t we get along very well previously?”
Shi Man smiled and said, “President Lin and 1 hit it off at first sight and chatted happily. Last time, I heard you say that you’ve already found the person you’ve been wanting to see again. You haven’t told me who this person is. Could it be that you don’t treat me as a friend after not seeing me for a while?”
Lin Yue was stunned for a moment. Clearly, she did not expect a person like Shi Man to have a fake side.
However, she immediately came back to her senses and shook her head helplessly with a smile. “That person is not a big shot. Miss Shi, there’s no need to care about this. By the way, 1 suddenly want to eat ice cream from a new cold drink shop in the West District today. Your brother went to buy it for me. Miss Shi, do you want one too?”
“Xicheng District?” Shi Man recalled that the weather had been hot recently. Many restaurants and cold drinks shops had opened near the project. Sometimes, when the construction workers were uncomfortable from the heat, they would buy a glass of ice cream to relieve the heat.
However, this place was more than ten kilometers away from the West District. The ice cream would probably melt on the way before Shi He returned.
“No need. I’ll wait here for my brother to come back. Please do as you please.” Shi Man grabbed the entertainment magazine on the table and read it.
Lin Yue ignored her and continued to look at the document in her hand.
Seeing that it was almost noon, Shi He ran in with sweat all over his face. Not only was his shirt completely drenched, but there were also water droplets falling from his hair. He was so sorry that one could not tell that he was the elegant and handsome Best Actor from before.
Shi He came in and was stunned when he saw Shi Man. Then, he walked to Lin Yue’s side and guiltily placed the ice cream that had clearly been insulated on the table. “I’m sorry, Yueyue. That shop is really too far away. It has already turned into liquid on the way back.”
Lin Yue took a casual look and threw the ice cream into the trash can by her feet. She said calmly, “I won’t be able to eat it after it has melted. You and your sister can talk first. I’ll leave first.”
With that, she stood up and was about to walk out. From the beginning to the end, she did not look at Shi He.
Shi Man frowned and couldn’t help but stop her. “Miss Lin, my brother worked hard to travel to more than half of the city to buy ice cream for you. What do you mean by throwing it away without even looking?”
Lin Yue blinked innocently and said matter-of-factly, “If something is spoiled, it can’t be eaten. Is there a problem? Miss Shi, don’t tell me you think I’m some diligent young lady? Although our Lin family can’t compare to the Shi family, we don’t care about a small cup of ice cream.”
“But that’s my brother’s good intention.” Shi Man argued with her unhappily.
Shi He quickly tried to smooth things over. He pushed Lin Yue’s shoulder and coaxed her to walk out. “Be good. Next time, I’ll definitely think of a way not to let it melt. 1’11 definitely let you eat what you like. Don’t be angry, okay?”
Lin Yue glanced at Shi Man with a faint smile and a mocking smile on her lips. “Alright, since you’re so considerate toward me, why would I be angry with you? I’ll leave first. You and your sister can chat slowly.”
Shi He wiped the sweat off his forehead as if he had been pardoned. Just as he turned around, he was caught off guard and met Shi Man’s deep eyes. He was shocked..
