Chapter 285: Showering Her With Attention

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Actually, a few hours ago, he guessed that Xia Ling would look for Lin Yunan.

Usually, she had bodyguards following her. They felt that something was unusual after seeing her enter the chaotic and dangerous bar, so they immediately reported it to Li Lei. Li Lei had the right to know what was going on about Xia Ling, and they made reports to him whenever necessary.

Under the bodyguards’ secret protection, Li Lei was not worried about her safety.

Although the bar was filled with a mixture of bad and good people, they were all low-level gangsters who had never received any professional training in the triad before and had never been tested in the raging flames of war. In contrast, the bodyguards he hired for her were all elites, and any one of them could easily take down a group of the gangsters. As long as they did not encounter people like Pei Ziheng or Li Feng who were extremely dangerous, they were more than enough to protect her.

The only thing that Li Lei cared about was Lin Yunan.

Who was the one who told her that name?

Even Li Lei had never heard that name before, he only knew about him after the bodyguards did an investigation to verify his identity.

Seven years ago, Lin Yunan was really well known in the entertainment industry, but at that time, Xiao Ling was probably only about eleven years old. She couldn’t even join Skyart Entertainment as a trainee at that age, how was it possible that she knew about this manager?

Now, who was the one who told Xiao Ling about this person who had retired a long time ago?

Sister Mai Na? Impossible. Sister Mai Na was a woman who was a gentle and reliable manager. If she were to recommend someone, she would definitely choose someone who had a good personality and reputation.

Wei Shaoyin? Impossible as well. He dedicated himself to his music and was impatient when it came to these irrelevant things. Unless Xiao Ling was desperate and really could not find anyone else for help; otherwise, he would definitely spend much effort helping her pick a manager.

Someone who could choose such a manager for Xiao Ling had to be extremely experienced in the industry and was well aware of the situation in the entertainment industry, various companies, and key personnel. Secondly, he must really understand Xiao Ling and know who was suitable for her given her simple personality. In addition, he also needed to have an eye for talent and guts to recommend him to Xiao Ling.

Lastly and most importantly, he needed to have a deep enough relationship with Xiao Ling.

They had to be so close that Xiao Ling would accept his opinion and choose a manager that she did not really like.

On the surface, Lin Yunan did not seem like the type of manager that Xiao Ling would like.

Who in the world could fulfill all the criteria at the same time?

Bai Murong? Xie Linlang? Shu Wanyi? Or even… Luo Luo?

They were all impossible. Either they had insufficient qualifications, lacked an eye for talent, or just were not close enough to Xiao Ling.

Could it be Pei Ziheng? In Xiao Ling’s social circle, besides Li Lei, there was only Pei Ziheng who was equally experienced, had an eye for talent, and could gain her trust.

Li Lei’s face slightly darkened.

“Help me investigate.” He called for his newly appointed special assistant Tan Ying and said, “Find out who Xiao Ling has been speaking to recently and whose recommendation did she listen to such that she went to look for Lin Yunan.”

Tan Ying acted according to his orders.

Li Lei felt an inexplicable annoyance inside. He hoped that the person was not Pei Ziheng. Any other person was much better than Pei Ziheng.

On the other hand, Xia Ling’s life was very peaceful.

On the morning of the next day, she wore a white silk shirt with black trousers. She easily brushed her hair, put on elegant makeup, and was ready to leave for Dongyue Culture and Entertainment. As she was about to leave, she suddenly thought of a problem.

When she was in Skyart, there was always a company car and chauffeur to drive her around.

After she left Skyart, she borrowed Luo Luo’s car for a few days. Luo Luo usually left the house at the same time as her, and her type of car did not match Xia Ling’s status. Furthermore, Luo Luo was also busy with a shoot these days, and no one was using her car.

However, yesterday, someone had knocked into the car, causing the rearview mirror to have some problems and having to be repaired.

She was caught in a car-less predicament.

No matter what, she could not take public transport. Considering her status now, even taking a taxi was unimaginable.

She silently chided herself. Why did she not think of this problem when she called the repair company? After looking at her contacts in her phone, besides Feng Kun who she could not blatantly contact frequently, there were contacts from Skyart Entertainment like Sister Mai Na, Wei Wei, and Li Lei. Unfortunately, there were no other contacts that she could use…

She could not help but reflect on how pathetic her connections were.

She could not reflect for a long time because she was reminded that her priority was to borrow a car. Where could she get a car that would let her arrive at Dongyue Culture and Entertainment smoothly while maintaining her status? Xia Ling was entangled in the situation and paced about in her house.

The doorbell rang.

After she opened the door, the person who was standing outside was Jin. Jin was the head security officer of Li Lei’s apartment. When she was living there, she had spoken to him a few times and had a good impression of him. “Is there something I can help you with, Jin?” She asked.

Jin handed a bouquet to her and said, “Young Master said that you have chosen your new manager and sent me to give you some flowers to congratulate you.”

The bouquet was made of beautiful lilies, just like the ones he sent her a few months ago. The flowers were fully bloomed with crystal dew on them, which calmed down her anxious feelings a little.

She thanked Jin and took the flowers.

“Miss Ye, are you planning to go out?” Jin asked.

“Yes,” Xia Ling replied. After replying, she remembered that she did not have a car and slightly frowned.

“How about I drive you there?” Jin spontaneously said. “You have to wear high heels with this outfit, and it is not safe to drive in high heels. Boss will kill me if he finds out that I let you drive in this state.”

No wonder he was the supervisor of the security officers. No one should undermine his position as he was responsible for Li Lei’s safety and was a trusted subordinate. Someone like that was really outstanding.

Xia Ling was elated and immediately agreed.

Jin also smiled and patiently waited for her to wear her high heels, choose a handbag, and walk downstairs with him.

He thought of what Li Lei instructed him to do last night. “Xiao Ling’s car is being repaired, right? She will definitely find it impolite to ask me for help. If you see that there’s no car parked downstairs tomorrow morning when you deliver the flowers to her, offer to drive her to her destination. Remember, don’t let her find out that you came on purpose to help her.” His Young Master spent so much effort on this girl such that he was so careful when showering her with attention.

Seeing her posture, he could tell that the girl in front of him was unquestionably his Young Master’s future wife.

After thinking about that, Jin became more attentive. He opened the car door for her and respectfully invited her to sit in the car.

The Mercedes-Benz he was driving was quite normal and not too eye-catching, but would maintain her status. After the car stopped at the Dongyue Culture and Entertainment’s underground parking, Xia Ling walked towards the employee-only elevator while Jin waited for her outside.
