You're My Only Star

Chapter 143 - Dumping Works To His Assistant

Special Assistant Bei Yuan knocked on the door and entered the President's office. "President Lu, I have mentioned your matter to the designer. She said you can go to the boutique anytime today. She will definitely make time for you. Do you need me to notify Miss Song about it?"

His eyes brightened up the moment he heard his Assistant's report. "No. I'll tell her myself."

Bei Yuan chuckled, knowing that his boss was just finding an excuse to contact his girlfriend. Seeing that his boss was in a good mood, Bei Yuan decided to continue and give him his report on their subsidiary companies. Although his boss was typing some messages to Miss Song, Bei Yuan knew well that his boss was listening to his words.

Worried that his boss might make an appointment with his girlfriend, Assistant Bei Yuan quickly reminded him, "President Lu, you have an appointment with Director Fei this afternoon."

The fingers on his phone halted. Lu Xun deleted the messages and began to type again. If Bei Yuan did not remind him, Lu Xun would definitely ask someone on a date.

Lu Xun nodded. "Un. I know. Bei Yuan, you will accompany me to this meeting later."

Once Bei Yuan had left the office,  Lu Xun picked up his phone again and saw the text message from his girlfriend. Seeing that she had agreed to come over to his office after work, Lu Xun felt a little excited.

He could only hope that this meeting would not last very long and that he could meet his girlfriend sooner. Lu Xun continued to look at the documents on his desk before his assistant came to remind him about his appointment with Director Fei.

As the agency had signed a few talents with them, Director Fei wanted to discuss his plans for the company. Later, it would be good to arrange for the studio and the agency to work together.

When the meeting ended, Director Fei saw the President and his assistant out. 

The elevator stopped with a ding. As the door slid open, there was already someone inside. The female seemed a little startled upon seeing that the big boss had suddenly appeared in front of her.

"Xu Jiao, you have a vocal class with Madam Cui again?" Director Fei spoke when he saw the girl. 

The girl nodded. "Un. Madam Cui asked me to grab something from the receptionist." She stepped aside and let the three men into the elevator.

"So you're heading downstairs as well." Director Fei turned to Lu Xun and introduced, "President Lu, this is a new talent that we signed, Xu Jiao. With enough training, she will be popular soon."

The girl smiled shyly. "Director Fei, don't praise me too much."

"President Lu, I am planning to let this girl join the same variety show as Huo Yun Chen. As they are from the same agency, Huo Yun Chen could look after her as a junior."

Lu Xun glanced at the girl. "Whether she can join the show or not, It will depend on the casting director."

Director Fei let out a cough upon hearing the President's words. 

Xu Jiao smiled and quickly spoke in an enthusiastic tone. "President Lu, I will also work hard."

Director Fei turned to Xu Jiao the moment he heard her words and suddenly his face turned slightly darker. He noticed the glint on the girl's eyes and it was not something that he had expected to see in the new artist's.

The elevator opened with a ding. Lu Xun stepped out with his assistant and Director Fei trailed closely. As the Maserati drove away, Director Fei turned around with a dark look on his face. 

Just as he had thought, Xu Jiao was still beside him. "Xu Jiao, you are new in this company. So I will remind you again that President Lu did not like it when a girl approach him."

He has been working in the entertainment industry for years. How can he not see what this girl was trying to do?

Xu Jiao forced a smile. "Director Fei, you have mentioned this before we signed the agreement. I still remember your reminder."

"You better be. If you accidentally offended President Lu, no one can help you," Director Fei reminded her. 

...

Lu Xun returned to the company after his meeting. As he entered the lobby, he was surprised to see that the person he was waiting for has arrived. However, the girl was focusing on playing games that she did not see him walking in. 

Seeing that there was no one around, Lu Xun walked over to his girlfriend and stopped in front of her.

Song Xing Xing began to notice the looming shadow in front of her and looked up. Her eyes brightened in excitement when she saw him. Her mouth parted as she was going to call him. However, she then realized that they were at his company.

"Have you waited long?" 

Song Xing Xing shook his head.

"Wait here for a moment. I'll go and spoke to Bei Yuan first."

"Un."

Lu Xun heaved a sigh as he suppressed his desire to pat her on the head. 

After dumping a few more works to his assistant, Lu Xun finally turned around and leave the office with his girlfriend.

"You said that you are going to bring me to a place," Song Xing Xing said as they entered the car. "Where are we going?"

"Shopping."

Song Xing Xing was reminded that Lu Xun had once spoken about going to shop together. However, the two of them had never visited the mall together as they were worried about running into a crowd.

She could still remember the first time she had dragged him to accompany her to have lunch at a restaurant in a popular mall near the studio. They did not get to eat their fill and the reporters had come to hunt Lu Xun for news. 

"It's a private place," Lu Xun said. "Moreover, I have already booked the place. We won't run into anyone and the shop would protect our identity well." 

Song Xing Xing tilted her head as she looked at him. She could not help but felt as if he was hiding something from her. "What are we looking for?"

"A dress for you," Lu Xun said. He smiled when Song Xing Xing stared at him in a trance. "You already promised that you will accompany me to that event. Of course, we need to find a proper outfit for you."

"Oh." Song Xing Xing nodded before she looked away.. If Lu Xun knew that she had forgotten about this event, surely he will be unhappy again.
