Chapter 282: Young Master Wants to Become an Artiste
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The atmosphere of the banquet was more relaxed than Murong Qiao had imagined.
An Nuo was chatting with her friend Shu Qiao. It seemed like the two of them had not seen each other for a long time.
Murong Qiao held a wine glass in her hand and swept her cold and distant gaze across the crowd of the banquet, noticing the protagonist of this banquet.
âHan Peibai,â she said his name softly.
He had a refined appearance. Perhaps it was because he had studied abroad that he had a more elegant and unrestrained temperament. Therefore, many peopleâs first impression of him was that he was a romantic poet, and he had the noble and aristocratic feeling of a young master.
Han Peibai stood in the crowd. His movements were elegant and graceful. Just from the happy expressions of the young ladies around him, one could tell how popular he was.
As if sensing Murong Qiaoâs sized up gaze, Han Peibai looked in her direction.
It was also at this moment that a girl walked in front of Murong Qiao, blocking their gaze.
âHello, Young Miss Murong. My name is He Yimei.â The person smiled faintly.
Murong Qiao thought about this name and confirmed that she didnât know her. She also retracted her gaze from Han Peibai.
âHello.â She nodded distantly.
He Yimei seemed to be very interested in her. âIâve always wanted to meet you. I heard that you even opened an entertainment companyâŠâ
It was clearly just a cold greeting, but He Yimei seemed to have mistaken it for an opening as her enthusiasm heightened.
âDo you still need more artistes? 1 always find it interesting to be a celebrity,â she asked.
Murong Qiao resisted the urge to rub her temples as that question gave her a headache.
The sound of their conversation attracted the others. Hearing He Yimeiâs question, the others also asked the same question. The eagerness in their eyes was clearly displayed in front of Murong Qiao.
Afraid that these people would ask something else, she quickly said, âMy company is too small. If you want to become a big star, 1 think itâs better to go to those big companies.â
It was obvious that these people were here to experience life. If they went to her company and threw a tantrum, Murong Qiao might not be able to handle it.
Hearing Murong Qiaoâs words, some people didnât give up and wanted to ask again. If they could send someone to Murong Qiaoâs company, they would at least benefit from the Murong familyâs name.
âWe also want to give it a try. It just so happens that Young Miss Murong is very familiar with this aspectââ A young master said. âAnd I think Young Miss Murong can at most move her mouth for such a small matter, right?â
He sounded relaxed and joking. He felt that such a small matter was nothing to Murong Qiao.
The young masterâs head swayed slightly as he spoke with a wine glass in his hand. He had a sloppy temperament that made people think that he was ignorant and incompetent. His tone was also lazy and frivolous.
âI canât say that Iâm well connected in this industry. Iâm just fooling around as a boss,â she replied.
Murong Qiao suppressed her frown. She felt that this personâs words displeased her. There was even a hint of arrogance in them, as if the entire world revolved around him.
They could clearly hear the rejection in Murong Qiaoâs voice, so they felt a little embarrassed by Murong Qiaoâs rejection.
Murong Qiao smiled faintly and took a sip of wine. âItâs not good to drag others down when I lose money.â
This was her second rejection. The young master who spoke also forced a smile for a moment, before a trace of anger flashed across his face.
No one expected Murong Qiao to reject them so completely. Although she rejected them tactfully, they still couldnât help but feel that she wasnât giving them face.
Some proud young ladies even turned around and left immediately. It was obvious that they were unhappy but Murong Qiaoâs expression remained cold as she pretended not to see it.
It was good that they had left. They would not have to go to her company to cause trouble.
âWhatâs the big deal?â Someone even muttered to himself.
However, that person definitely wouldnât dare to say that in front of Murong Qiao. After all, she was from the Murong family. No one had the guts to provoke her.
The young master who had just said that he wanted to be a celebrity was also tactful. âMy friend seems to be here. Excuse me.â
At this point, everyone dispersed, and the group of people around Murong Qiao gradually decreased.
Meanwhile, An Nuo, who had finished chatting with Shu Qiao, was standing at the side. Seeing that Murong Qiaoâs side was finally empty, she walked towards her.
âThe annoying guy has finally left,â she complained softly.
An Nuo paid attention to the occasion, so only Murong Qiao could hear her.
Annoying?
Murong Qiao immediately thought of the young master who had spoken playfully just now and raised her eyebrows.
She thought about it and asked, âThat one just now?â
An Nuo nodded. âHim. Heâs the young master of the Zheng family. Heâs famous for being a playboy.â
When she turned around just now, she saw a boy standing beside Murong Qiao and vaguely felt that he looked familiar. When she leaned closer, she recognized him.
âThe Zheng family head finally gained a son at an old age and dotes on him very much. They canât wait to give him everything,â she said simply. âHowever, he hasnât picked up any good habits since young. He didnât like to study and would only hang out with a few people of the same circle every day.â
After An Nuo said that, Murong Qiao understood why that person was so straightforward just now. He was obviously different from the others who were reserved towards her.
âIn that case, itâs a great thing that 1 rejected him.â Murong Qiao smiled.
An Nuo nodded heavily. âItâs good to reject him. Heâs always jealous of Xian Yu. If he really enters the entertainment industry, wouldnât he create havoc?â
At the mention of her Fifth Brother, Xian Yu, Murong Qiao could not help but be surprised.
âHeâs jealous of Xian Yu?â Murong Qiao was puzzled.
She had interacted with Fifth Brother for so long, but she had never seen this person appear. The two of them did not look like they knew each other.
An Nuo explained to her, âI donât remember when it started either. Anyway, heâs always going against Xian Yu. Heâs even jealous that heâs so popular as a celebrity.â
âI think he probably didnât mean it when he told you that he wanted to be an artiste. At most, he just wanted to win and wanted to be more popular than Xian Yu.â At the mention of this, An Nuo immediately added a few words.
This matter wasnât a secret in the circle. It wasnât just a day or two that Young Master Zheng and Xian Yu feuded with each other. Before looking for Murong Qiao, Young Master Zheng had already made a fuss several times about going to the entertainment industry to become a celebrity.
Hearing An Nuoâs words, Murong Qiao understood what he was thinking.
It was impossible for him to have a career. He probably wanted to be there to gain celebrity status and compete with Xian Yu. It must be because he saw that so many people liked Xian Yu and couldnât help but be jealous.
Murong Qiao didnât know whether to laugh or cry after hearing An Nuoâs words. She didnât expect this person to have such a thing with her Fifth Brother.
Before she could express her thoughts, she heard An Nuo add confidently.
âHe didnât even look in the mirror to see what he looked like. How could his face compare to Xian Yuâsâno, thatâs not right. They canât be compared at all.â What she said was true.
Thinking of her Fifth Brotherâs good-looking and flamboyant face, she stood on An Nuoâs side without thinking.
Murong Qiao couldnât help but laugh. She turned to look at An Nuo, who said this, and then nodded heavily, obviously agreeing with her..
