Chapter 1967: Celebrated Too Early
“Stop joking around! I’ve seen many rich kids like you before. They simply just burn through money wanting to play. I’m sorry but if you want to play, I don’t have the time to play with you!”
Xiao Yuqian wanted to get rid of his thoughts of wanting to join the entertainment industry. Moreover, she knew he was still studying at university. He hadn’t even finished his studies and he wanted to become an actor? Wasn’t this just nonsense?
“I’m not here for fun. I’m really serious about becoming an actor.”
Ma Haodong said it very seriously as he stared into Xiao Yuqian’s eyes.
Xiao Yuqian sighed and asked suspiciously, “Do you know how to act?”
Ma Haodong suddenly lifted the corner of his lips into a smile and then quietly held her hand. He held it in the palm of his hand and said, “If you teach it to me, I will know how to do it, right?”
Xiao Yuqian felt disgusted by his clingy behavior and freed her hands. She turned around and said, “Since you decided to act, then you first need to accept the company’s training and test. Whether or not I can manage you depends on your performance.”
The reason Xiao Yuqian said this was because she had a hope that this high maintenance rich kid wouldn’t be able to take the hardship. He might get tired even just after three days and then give up halfway and then withdraw on his own.
Ma Haodong saw that she was willing to give him a chance and he became very happy. “Okay, no problem!”
“Okay. You head back now. Once I’ve finished with the arrangements, I will contact you.”
Xiao Yuqian wanted to chase him away but Ma Haodong wasn’t willing to leave. He was finally able to see her so he wanted to spend more time with her.
He pulled out a chair and sat facing her office table. He put his hand on his chin and looked at her as she worked.
Xiao Yuqian glanced at him and asked, “Why aren’t you leaving?”
Ma Haodong tapped the table with his long and pretty fingers. “I’m waiting for you to get off work so we can eat together.”
“…” She was simply speechless. She had zero desire to eat with him.
Just as she started to worry she didn’t have any excuses left to get rid of him, Guan Hao appeared at the office door and knocked lightly. When Xiao Yuqian lifted her head, Guan Hao said, “Yuqian, since you are here, I will let you see the progress on Su Jimo’s public relations case.”
Guan Hao brought the documents over and gave them to Xiao Yuqian. He realized there was a young fella sitting across from her and asked, “Who is this?”
Perhaps it was because the way Ma Haodong dressed today was worlds apart from how he dressed that night, but Guan Hao didn’t recognize him at all.
Xiao Yuqian glanced at Ma Haodong and explained simply, “A new guy President He sent me.”
“Oh.”
Guan Hao didn’t continue to ask after he found out. He didn’t pay much attention as this new guy didn’t look particularly special at first glance. Most of his focus was on Xiao Yuqian.
When Xiao Yuqian was looking at the documents, Guan Hao suggested, “Yuqian, this case is progressing quite well. Why don’t we invite the members of the public relations department out for a group dinner tonight so we can all celebrate? What do you think?”
Xiao Yuqian also considered this before so she agreed. “Okay. I will invite everyone to dinner tonight. I’ll have to trouble you to inform the others.”
“No problem.” Guan Hao said goodbye and left.
After Guan Hao left, Xiao Yuqian looked at Ma Haodong, “You heard it just now. I will be having dinner with the public relations department after I get off work. I don’t have time to eat with you so you should go back home!”
Ma Haodong didn’t protest. He stood up straight away and Xiao Yuqian thought he accepted it and would leave on his own accord. However, she celebrated too early.
Ma Haodong went over in front of the sofa and leaned against it straight away, sitting on it comfortably. He took out his phone and started to play games.
“Hey! Why aren’t you leaving yet?” Xiao Yuqian asked, feeling upset.
