Being a Salted Fish Chapter 4 Part 2: We Don't Know Each Other

And what about Yu Xiang?

She followed them into the small conference room.

Ling Chenyuan turned around and asked: "Have you brought all the materials, Mr. Shen?"

"Yes!" Mr. Shen said, taking out a folder and a laptop from his briefcase.

Ling Chenyuan took it and started looking at the materials.

Mr. Shen began to talk nonstop about his company, new projects, and the internet celebrities he had signed recently.

Yu Xiang understood.

It turned out that she was working for an MCN agency that specializes in hatching Internet celebrities.

Before Mr. Shen finished his introduction, Ling Chenyuan interrupted him: "I will take a look at it slowly, so you don't have to say anything."

Mr. Shen had no choice but to sit back.

And thus, Yu Xiang began her performance.

She supported her chin, leaned against the conference table, turned the paper cup of tea in her hand, and looked at Ling Chenyuan intently.

She stared at him so intently.

The system, which had been greatly stimulated, had calmed down a lot.

System: [Okay, now that Chu Lihan is gone, you can complete Ling Chenyuan’s mission first.]

Yu Xiang: [En, can’t you see that the mission is ongoing?]

System: ?

System: [How can this be called ongoing?]

Yu Xiang: [Just think about it, a woman suddenly rushes up to you and say "I like you" for no apparent reason. Is that a sick person?]

System: [If you are sick, you are sick. You just need to follow the established plot.]

Yu Xiang: [Why don't you reflect on yourself? Why are you only assigned to manage a small cannon fodder like me? Of course, it's because you are not as good as other systems... Why are you not as good as other systems? It's because you are too rigid when guiding the host to complete the task.]

System: [……]

Stop talking. I already feel that I may have committed some great sin in my previous life, so I was sent to take care of you.

Yu Xiang: How smart do you think the male protagonist is?

System: [Of course he has the best IQ in this world. After all, he is the male protagonist.]

Yu Xiang: [En, so you think, if I always confess to the male protagonist for no reason like a robot, every time just like clocking in to work, will the male protagonist suspect that I am not a real person?]

System: [……]

It was convinced.

And here.

Ling Chenyuan really couldn't ignore Yu Xiang's overly passionate and overly focused gaze.

He looked back at Yu Xiang.

Yu Xiang continued looking at him.

The two people's eyes met, and Yu Xiang's gaze was balanced and steady.

She was the bravest girl Ling Chenyuan has ever seen, and also the most shameless.

Of course, she was indeed the most beautiful girl Ling Chenyuan had ever seen.

"Manager Ling?" Mr. Shen was getting a little impatient. He suggested, "It's getting late today. How about we have dinner together at the Haili Hotel later?"

Haili Hotel is the hotel where Yu Xiang and Chu Lihan had sex.

It was indeed quite famous in Hai City.

Ling Chenyuan put down the folder and said, "No need. Leave the information with me for now. I'll have someone make a copy of the electronic information. Mr. Shen, please take the computer back."

Mr. Shen was a little nervous and a little anxious.

He couldn't help but blame himself for picking an inappropriate time and running into Young Master Chu and Ling Chenyuan.

Maybe they just had an unpleasant encounter, so he wasn’t in the mood to talk to him.

Mr. Shen had no choice but to agree: "Okay, then call me when you are free or if there is any new progress."

Liao Jiafei reached out, picked up the notebook, and walked in front.

Mr. Shen walked behind her.

At this time, Ling Chenyuan walked to the door and closed the glass door.

System: ?

System: [Fuck! ]

What kind of development is this?

Why is it suddenly like this...

Ling Chenyuan just stood at the door, turned around and asked: "Have we met before? You were looking at me just now."

The system breathed a sigh of relief.

Oh ok, that's all. He just wanted to ask this.

It thought that after Chu Lihan's character setting collapsed, this one would also behave out of character. It blamed itself for having a little brain that was filled with unhealthy things.

"Yes, I have met you at the cocktail party." Yu Xiang nodded.

"Who are you…"

"Big bow."

Ling Chenyuan: “…”

After hearing this, he remembered.

Because the woman in the big bow dress at the party was just as eye-catching as he was. It was just that he was eye-catching because of his embarrassing identity, while that woman was eye-catching because of her completely unfashionable dress.

Ling Chenyuan found it a little difficult to connect that image with the young woman in front of him, who was wearing a maroon sweater, had her long hair draped over her shoulders, and had overly delicate features.

"You keep staring at me, is there something wrong?"

"I like you, don't you know?" Yu Xiang said confidently.

He... he really didn't know.

Ling Chenyuan looked at her with amusement: "So?"

He was in an awkward position in Hai City.

No one knew that he had already built up his own power overseas long ago.

Many ladies from wealthy families liked him but hesitated because of his status. No one had ever come up to him and shouted the word "like" so loudly.

Yu Xiang: "Do you like me?"

Ling Chenyuan: "Of course not."

The woman in front of him was tasteless, rude, and didn't even seem very smart.

She was so different from the girl he likes.

Yu Xiang: [If I say ‘All right, then. It’s fine,’ would my character setting collapse?]

The system was very satisfied: [Yes, that's right. You have the habit of consulting me before speaking. This is good. Keep it up.]

Yu Xiang stood up and snorted coldly, saying in a clear and loud voice: "n, m, s, l."*

After saying that, she walked up to Ling Chenyuan, opened the door, and walked out arrogantly.

The system is still a little confused: [Wh, what do you mean?]

Yu Xiang: Surf the Internet more and read more books.

Ling Chenyuan was also stunned.

……What's the meaning?

He suspected she was scolding him but couldn't find any evidence.

Ling Chenyuan frowned.

*NMSL: It means 你妈死了 (ni ma si le) in Chinese and it’s a bad word. It means “your mom is dead” literally but if a person says that it’s more like he’s trying to express “Fuck you” in a really aggressive way.
