Chapter 68: 068 Your mouth is really venomous now

The next morning, Shi Lan woke up in bed and realized that the real-life presence of Yan Shixiu indeed had a more substantial impact than a pillow. It seemed that during her beloved scoundrel’s hotel stay, she could put away her pillow for a while.

Since today she had an interview at Glory, Tang Ze appeared early in the hotel lobby to pick her up and head out.

“Why are you bringing a computer to an interview?” Tang Ze couldn’t help asking when he saw Sun Ling carrying Shi Lan’s computer.

“It’ll be useful somehow,” replied Shi Lan.

In truth, both of them knew very well that Glory had called quite perfunctorily. Although they had informed Shi Lan to come for an interview, it was merely a formality because Chen Beini had referred someone to them. So, Glory was just making a show of it as a courtesy, and Tang Ze had prepared for the worst, that they might only see Shi Lan once.

But evidently, Shi Lan wasn’t as optimistic as Tang Ze—the other party clearly didn’t want to waste time meeting her.

“About today’s opportunity…it’s tough to secure, so don’t be hard on yourself. Many top young stars can’t handle it either.”

Shi Lan took the computer from a sleeping Sun Ling’s lap and, staring at Tang Ze’s garish floral shirt, said, “Every time I see you now, I feel like you’re one of those Thai guys who pull over at the roadside. I’m just waiting for you to say ‘Sawasdee Ka’.”

Seeing that Shi Lan’s mood was unaffected, Tang Ze adjusted his floral shirt, looking a bit sad at her: “Your words are really sharp nowadays.”

Soon, the trio arrived at the Glory Asia Pacific office. They were led by the front desk into the meeting room, but then, they were as if forgotten in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, unattended ever since.

During that time, not even a receptionist to offer tea or water appeared.

After sitting quietly for an hour, Tang Ze couldn’t stay put any longer. He got up from his chair and said, “I’ll go ask what’s happening.”

For Shi Lan, this was typical behavior, though she disliked wasting other’s time. However, she couldn’t rule out that other companies preferred this cold treatment as a form of rejection, which was even scarier due to its silent protest.

Chen Beini’s team was negotiating other resources, using others as a scapegoat to decline, which she wouldn’t have appreciated either.

A moment later, Tang Ze returned, hand on his hip, and told Shi Lan, “The manager’s secretary told me they have many meetings today and asked us to be patient.”

Shi Lan had anticipated this; she remained composed and continued typing away on her computer.

Tang Ze glanced at her, suddenly realizing the purpose of her bringing the computer. “So, you guessed it?”

“Today’s theme is humiliation, didn’t you know?” Shi Lan looked up at him and said, “For my status, isn’t it quite normal?”

Tang Ze: “…”

“No, I still think you’ve been too harsh. If it were the old An Lan, she would have lost her temper long ago…”

Ignoring him, Shi Lan turned to Sun Ling: “Check if there are any good pastries or desserts nearby. We might have to resolve lunch and dinner here.”

After hearing this, Sun Ling glanced at Tang Ze, took out his phone, and obediently began to search for eateries.

Just as Shi Lan suspected, not only did Glory’s manager not show up, even their secretary refused to meet them.

They ended up waiting until two in the afternoon.

Indeed, someone did come, but because a meeting was scheduled in the afternoon, they asked the trio to step out. Now, lacking even a place to enjoy dessert, the three of them sat on stools in the Glory employees’ break room, looking utterly ridiculous.

“Even if these big shots wanted to reject us, there’s no need to humiliate us like this, right?” Tang Ze couldn’t hold back any longer.
