Chapter 166: Ridiculous Conditions!

  Meng Fei glanced at the phone number on his mobile phone, thought for a moment, and dialed it. After a while, the call went through, and a sweet female voice said, "Hello."

  "Hey, uh... is it Yu Jie?" Meng Fei asked tentatively.

  "Excuse me, who are you?"

  "Are you really Jade? Haha, it's me. Do you still remember yesterday? The person who wanted to ask you out for dinner at the book signing ceremony, Meng Fei." Meng Fei said with a smile.

  There was a brief silence on the other end of the phone, then laughter: "Oh, it's you, haha. Hey, how did you get my phone number?"

  "Oh, don't worry about this, I have a way. Hehe, by the way, do you have time now? I'd like to invite you out for a meal, is that okay?" Meng Fei said with a smile.

  Bai Yujie smiled and said: "I'm really sorry, I'll be very busy today, so I won't be able to grant your request."

  "Oh, I see, so..."

  "Sorry, I have something on, can't chat anymore, thanks for your kindness, bye." Bai Yujie said and hung up the phone.

  Meng Fei smiled bitterly as he looked at his phone, shook his head, and then dialed Wang Xue's number. "Hey, it's me. I've tried my best, but she just doesn't take me seriously. Maybe my charm isn't enough."

  "Oh no, how can you be so stupid? Are you even a man? You can't even handle such a small matter, what's the point of having you?" Wang Xue said angrily.

  "Hey, big sister, I'm not a love saint, how can I possibly make all girls like me? Besides, I saw in the newspaper that Yu Jie has a boyfriend recently, why do you insist on making me chase her?" Meng Fei said unjustly.

  "You... where did you get so many questions? Let you chase her, just go, don't talk nonsense. This time is an exception, anyway I won't care about it, you must catch her for me, otherwise, I won't forgive you." After finishing speaking, Wang Xue hung up the phone.

  Meng Fei looked at his phone with a gloomy expression, thinking to himself that within less than five minutes, two girls had already hung up on him. If it were in the past, this kind of thing would never have happened.

  Zhang Ziheng tidied up the design drawings and then got up and came to Director Xu's office. "Director Xu, you're looking for me?"

  Xu smiled slightly and nodded for him to sit down. Then he looked at the file in his hand and said, "Recently our company has landed a big deal, you know?"

  "Haha, of course I know. These past few days have exhausted all of us, several people are working on this design, and now when I go home sometimes I'm still thinking about it." Zhang Ziheng said with a smile.

  Director Xu smiled and nodded, saying: "Yes, this design is indeed very important. Because your last plan was successful, the company has again appointed you as the project manager for this plan. You can freely deploy all employees in the design department and the planning department."

  Zhang Ziheng was slightly stunned and looked at Director Xu with a somewhat disbelieving expression, asking: "Really? Director Xu, are you telling the truth?"

  "Haha, why would I cheat you? This is what the company means, and I'm just responsible for conveying it, so don't worry." said Xu.

  Zhang Ziheng is now overjoyed, "Then... President Xu, when can I start?"

  "We can start now. Oh, right, this time's plan is almost the same as last time's, but this time you'll be in charge of the obvious connection problems yourself, which means you'll have to take care of it from start to finish." Xu said with a smile.

  "No problem, I'll definitely take full responsibility. Director Xu, you tell me, what do you want me to do?" Zhang Ziheng smiled and said.

  "This is the star material for this plan, take a look and then rush to visit and discuss specific matters, understand?" Xu said, handing over the materials in his hand to Zhang Ziheng.

  Zhang Ziheng happily accepted it and opened it to take a look. Suddenly, he was stunned and looked up at Director Xu, saying: "Director Xu, how...how can this be her?"

  Xu smiled and said, "What's wrong? Is there a problem? Actually, when I saw this material, I understood everything. It's said to be the company's intention, but I think it's actually Bai Yujie's intention. She wants you to be in charge of this plan. Do you know that recently many companies have come to ask Bai Yujie to shoot ads? Our company was able to invite her, and I think it's all because of you."

  Zhang Ziheng nodded, he also understood now, "Director Xu, I'll give up this plan. Maybe it's better to let someone else do it."

  Xu Zong smiled and shook his head, saying: "Zi Heng, didn't you understand what I just said? She decided to negotiate with our company because of you. If you don't take charge of this plan, she won't sign a contract with us. We're doing business here, you can't let your personal feelings get involved. If you give up, it means our company will lose a chance to make money, do you understand?"

  "But..."

  "Alright, no more of that. Don't forget, you're now an employee of the company, everything must follow the company's arrangements, understood?" Xu asked.

  Zhang Ziheng thought for a moment and then nodded his head, saying: "I understand, Director Xu."

  "Alright, just go then. I think this shouldn't be a problem for you. Go and come back early, remember, you're not only doing it for yourself, but also for the company." Xu said with a smile.

  Zhang Ziheng nodded and left the office. He returned to his own seat, sat down, looked at the file in his hand, then threw it on the table, sitting there in a daze.

  At this time, Ziwen passed by him and saw his worried look, curiously asking: "What's wrong, Ziheng? You seem to have something on your mind."

  "Huh? Oh, no, just a bit tired." Zhang Ziheng shook his head and smiled.

  "If you're tired, go back and rest early, I'll help you ask for leave from Director Xu." Zi Heng said with concern.

  Zhang Ziheng shook his head and said, "No, I'm just a bit tired in my heart. Sigh, Ziwen sister, you say this world is really strange, why do all things and people rush together?"

  "Haha, I don't understand such profound principles, you'd better ask someone else. Oh, right, I heard from Xu that you're now the manager of this project again, haha, congratulations!" Ziwen said with a smile.

  Zhang Ziheng smiled and nodded, saying: "Thank you. Oh, I won't chat anymore, I have something to do outside, see you later."

  "Hey, what's going on? Every time I talk to you, you have something to do and leave. Are you annoyed with me?" Ziwen asked with a frown.

  "No, Ziwen sister, what are you thinking? I really have something to attend to, it's arranged by Director Xu. Now the whole department is busy with this plan, of course, I need to put in extra effort. Alright, I really can't chat with you anymore, I'm leaving, bye." Zhang Ziheng said as he picked up his briefcase and stood up to leave.

  "Oh, bye." Ziwen said with a somewhat disappointed wave of her hand.

  Twenty minutes later, Zhang Ziheng took a taxi to the hotel where Bai Yujie was staying. Standing outside the hotel, Zhang Ziheng sighed and walked in. When he arrived at Bai Yujie's suite, Yujie and her agent were already waiting there. Seeing Zhang Ziheng arrive, Bai Yujie looked very happy and warmly invited him to sit down.

  "This time I'm here because of work, so Zhang Ziheng looks very awkward. "Cough, Miss Bai Yujie, I am an employee of Feiyu Advertising Company, my name is Zhang Ziheng, and I am also the project manager for your advertising shoot this time, hello."

  "Hello, I'm Miss Bai's agent, my surname is Chen and my name is Lin. What can I get for Mr Zhang to drink?" said Miss Bai's agent with a smile.

  "Oh, never mind, I'm not thirsty." Zhang Ziheng waved his hand with a smile, then took out the computer and two contracts from his briefcase and placed them on the table. He continued to say: "It's like this, my main purpose for coming today is to discuss the main matters of this advertisement with Miss Bai. These two contracts are the same, you can take a look. If there's anything you don't understand, you can ask me. Or if there's anything you're not satisfied with, we can make appropriate modifications until you're satisfied."

  Chen Lin nodded and took the contract to read, while Bai Yujie didn't even bother to look at it, her eyes fixed on Zhang Ziheng from head to toe, staring at him until he felt quite embarrassed.

  After a while, Chen Lin nodded and said: "There is no problem with the contract, the remuneration is also acceptable, we don't have any major issues left."

  Zhang Ziheng nodded and took out a pen, saying: "Since there's no problem, then please sign here..."

  "Wait, I have another request." Bai Yujie interrupted and said.

  Zhang Ziheng was slightly stunned and then said: "I don't know if Miss Bai has any other place that she doesn't understand, I can explain it to you one by one."

  "I don't have any place that I don't understand, I just want to add a few more requirements on the contract, do you think it's possible?" Bai Yujie smiled and said.

  "Of course, if it's reasonable, our company will accept it." Zhang Ziheng nodded and said.

  Bai Yujie nodded in satisfaction and looked at Zhang Ziheng, saying softly: "You've lost weight, isn't your recent diet not good? This won't do."

  "Cough, cough, Mr. Zhang doesn't mind, Miss Bai is just joking with you..." Chen Lin immediately interrupted her and glared at her, as if signaling her not to talk nonsense.

  Zhang Ziheng nodded and smiled, saying nonchalantly: "It's okay, it's okay, I won't mind."

  Bai Yu chuckled and continued: "I think you must have been eating poorly lately, otherwise, what do you want to eat? I'll make it for you."

  "Ah...... Hehe, Miss Bai means that her cooking skills are very good, she's very skilled at making food, and can show it off a bit during the commercial shoot." Chen Lin immediately added.

  Zhang Ziheng nodded and said: "I think you should have no requirements now, the contract I will leave here first, when you sign it, I'll come back to take it. I have something to do, so I'll leave first."

  "Wait, who said I didn't make any demands? I did, my demand is that you have to shoot this commercial with me, otherwise, I won't sign this contract." Bai Yujie hastily called out to him.

  Her words left both Zhang Ziheng and Chen Lin stunned, especially Zhang Ziheng. He never thought that Bai Yujie would propose such a condition. This...this is simply absurd. In other people's eyes, they were a big star and a company employee, how could they possibly work together on an advertisement? She was giving Zhang Ziheng a difficult problem to solve.
