Chapter 61: New Mission
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The next day, Song Wei went to work as usual.
Although she won the battle with Liang Shuyin by a landslide, the company split into two factions that supported and hated her.
After all, many people looked at Liang Shuyin through ‘filters’. After she was driven away so tragically this time, many of her admirers were criticizing Song Wei behind her back for being ugly and troublesome and about how she was vicious and scheming.
However, Song Wei didn’t really care. After living two lifetimes, she had plenty of experience in getting scolded.
On the other hand, Luo Lisha was clear-headed in this aspect and was able to distinguish right from wrong. After knowing that Song Wei was the one who had modified her Exquisite Eye, she even arranged a new mission for her.
“The A-list celebrity, Liu Shiying, wants to wear the Exquisite series on the red carpet, but Exquisite Eye has already been hyped up too much. She wants a more innovative article to complement her style. Xiaocao, you’ve done a good job with regards to amending designs. I’ll leave this task to you.”
Song Wei had prepared herself beforehand, so she agreed immediately. “No problem. I’ll talk to them.”
However, Luo Lisha said, “They have made a request. You must go to the production team to design according to her temperament and requirements. She will personally supervise the progress of the design.”
Song Wei was stunned. “Where is their production team?”
Luo Lisha answered without hesitation, “B City. The company has already booked your flight ticket for you. You’ll fly off in the afternoon.”
“What? Sister Lisha… don’t you need to inform me in advance? I haven’t prepared anything yet…”
Luo Lisha turned back to look at her suspiciously. “You just need to go with your own luggage. What else do you need to prepare? I’ll give you half a day off so go home to pack.”
“…” Song Wei felt a bit of a headache.
Her current makeup look had to be redone by the stylist every day. If she really had to go on a business trip, she could only bring the stylist along.
To her surprise, the stylist agreed very readily. After all, the Jiang family was very generous with her commission.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Mingxu called her. “Are you going on a business trip?”
Song Wei sighed. “Yes… the leader made some last-minute arrangements. I can’t avoid it.”
“How many days will you be gone for?”
“It’s hard to say. If everything goes well, I might be back in a few days. If things don’t go well or if the other party is extremely difficult to deal with, I might not be able to come home after ten days to half a month.”
Someone who could make so many requests definitely wasn’t a simple person.
Jiang Mingxu was silent on the other end of the line. “…can you not go?”
“Of course not. Liu Shiying is the current top-tier celebrity now. Her ability to influence consumers is quite strong. Only by pairing her up with Sky Palace’s name can the company become more famous than now. I don’t want to let go of such a good opportunity.”
Jiang Mingxu listened to Song Wei’s beliefs on the other end of the line. After a while, he finally demanded coldly, “Then, when are you going to repay what you owe me?”
Song Wei hugged her phone and blushed. She gave a perfunctory laugh and said, “Erm, I have to pack my luggage now. Young Master Jiang, I’m hanging up first. Don’t miss me too much!”
Jiang Mingxu’s eyebrows twisted into a huge knot when he heard the busy tone on the phone.
Liu Shiying was worthy of being an A-list celebrity indeed. She had strict requirements in place for her staff and business partners, and her time was extremely tight.
Song Wei had just gotten off the plane when she received a text message from Liu Shiying’s assistant that they would meet after 30 minutes.
Song Wei had no choice but to ask the stylist to go rest at the hotel and bring her luggage along, while she herself took a taxi to the film studio.
Liu Shiying was staying in a presidential suite in a five-star hotel near the film studio. When Song Wei arrived, she was in the midst of putting on makeup. Other than the makeup artist, seven to eight assistants were surrounding her.
Liu Shiying was obviously unsatisfied with their work efficiency. “I said that I was going to wear that LV coat this afternoon. Why are people only ironing it now? This shoe isn’t in the color I want. I said that I want it in green, but not this type of green, okay? I want a warmer and darker green than this one. This grass green color is simply too old-fashioned.”
At this point, she suddenly thought of something. “Oh, right, hasn’t the person from Sky Palace arrived yet? Didn’t you get her to come over as soon as she got off the plane?”
However, when Liu Shiying turned her head around, she saw Song Wei standing behind her. Covered in dust and sporting disheveled hair, Song Wei looked apologetic.
Liu Shiying practically shot out of her chair in shock. “Where did this ugly freak come from?! Hurry up and kick her out! Didn’t I tell you? Anyone ugly doesn’t deserve to come within three meters of me!”
