Chapter 545 Partners.h.i.+p

She almost yells out the words not at all. Feeling the gaze from all over the building, Jing Shu now thinks she has lost her face.

Hmm, dude, what I was saying is that you look too pretty for a man. Ha-ha... Beitang Xiu does not know how to feel about Jing Shus giggling and her words, whether he should feel happy or gloomy.

Though he does hear someone else say that he is pretty as a woman, it does not occur often. He is a man and does not like to look feminine.

Not many males will appreciate being told pretty as a woman, even if it is supposed to be a compliment.

Meanwhile, his bodyguard has brought him the cloth. Beitang Xiu asks, Can you show me a place for changing, please?

Straight ahead. Jing Shu points to the pantry. But she freezes after bursting out the words.

Hang on. This man does not work for World Era Weekly!

He is called young master, which implies his high status. Plus, he is at World Era Weekly at this time. It cannot be...

Sorry, sir! Jing Shu approaches him and asks, May I have your name please? And may I know your business here today, at World Era Weekly?

Beitang Xiu looks at Jing Shu and smiles, I have an appointment with Chief Editor Xia.

! Jing Shu freezes as if she has just heard a rumble of thunder.

He cannot happen to be... Mr. Beitang!

Watching the man go to the changing room, Jing Shu is anxious. If he is Mr. Beitang, then she has really lost her face!

Excuse me. Jing Shu asks the mans bodyguards, How should I address your master?

The bodyguards look at each other. But no one answers her question.

Jing Shu takes a moment before asking, Im Chief Editor Xias a.s.sistant. She has asked me to receive an important guest. So please, can you tell me whether your master is from the Beitang Family?

Two bodyguards nod simultaneously at her question.

Jing Shu gasps!

Gosh, she spilt her coffee on him and called him a Miss!

Will Mr. Beitang be mad?

He does not look like he cares... But it can be because of his excellent manners and he only temporarily ignores it. What if he gets mad at Chief Editor Xia in their meeting...?

Jing Shu is so worried that she paces up and down in the pantry. Meanwhile, Beitang Xiu has changed into a white suit. He looks even more like a gem.

Jing Shu is amazed again at her eyes!

Mr. Beitang is not as masculine or powerful as Yi Yunrui. But he has a decent charm on his own!

Many women will be dying for having a face like his!

Yi Yuntian is good-looking aggressively, while Beitang Xiu is simply good-looking.

Girl. Beitang Xiu walks up, Youre Chief Editor Xias a.s.sistant, arent you?

Yes! Im Jing Shu. Jing Shu bows down deeply again, So sorry, Mr. Beitang. Im so clumsy. You can do anything to punish me. But can you please not tell Chief Editor Xia about this? You are an important guest of World Era Weekly. I will hate to hurt your feelings towards us because of my mistake.

Beitang Xiu smiles. He is used to being spilt by coffee in his waiter career. But this girl is so cute that he wants to mess around, Really Anything is fine?

Jing Shu is a bit worried!

What does Mr. Beitang mean?

Anyway, she will keep her words, Yes, its my bad! Please feel free to punish me, Mr. Beitang!

Beitang Xiu raises his eyebrow and contemplates, Can you...

Jing Shu gets more worried.

Leave it. I dont have an idea now. Maybe next time. You owe me one now.

Jing Shu is a bit relaxed.

Shu, take me to your chief editor, please.

Ok. Jing Shu raises her hand, Mr. Beitang, this way.

Xia Ning just is thinking about why Mr. Beitang has not arrived when someone knocks at the door. Jing Shu and Beitang Xiu come in, Chief Editor Xia, Mr. Beitang is here.

Xia Ning stood up immediately, Nice to meet you, Mr. Beitang. Welcome to World Era Weekly.

Wait, Jing Shu does not look well. Also, she seems to have met Mr. Beitang somewhere. He seems so familiar.

Beitang Xiu nods, Chief Editor Xia, you neednt be so formal with me. Weve met several times before.

Xia Ning pauses, Really? Please take a seat, Mr. Beitang.

Have they met before?

Xia Ning takes a closer look at Beitang Xiu when Jing Shu serves them some coffee. Beitang Xiu takes the coffee, Chief Editor Xia, do you remember the coffee shop WAITTINGFORYOU?

Xia Ning is silent for a while before her eyes light up!

Hold on. This man was the waiter from the coffee shop!

He was a waiter in the coffee shop previously and now the CEO of Tianyu Entertainment Company!

What a shocking career s.h.i.+ft.

Mr. Beitang, Im so sorry that I failed to recognize you in the beginning. But even if she does, she will never blurt out such a dramatic difference in ident.i.ty.

Beitang Xiu laughs, Its my fathers coffee shop. He likes to keep a low profile and always tells us to avoid attracting unnecessary attention.

A low profile indeed. Mr. Beitang, the old gentleman, possesses a superior status.

Hows your father doing lately?

Hes doing great. Thank you, Chief Editor Xia. Putting down the coffee, Beitang Xiu puts on his serious face, Chief Editor Xia, Im here at World Era Weekly today to discuss several things with you.

Please go ahead, Mr. Beitang.

Huo Zhanpeng is now in custody and wont be free for a while. Im taking over Tianyu Entertainment Company. Id like to have an exclusive interview with World Era Weekly, if possible.

The celebrity effect. Xia Ning contemplates. Mr. Beitang does not want to avoid the spotlights this time.

No problem. Its World Era Weeklys honor to have an interview with you, Mr. Beitang.

Im so flattered, Chief Editor Xia. Putting down the coffee, Beitang says, The coffee is good but can be better. The maker can be a good barista with some training.

Xia Ning blinks her eyes and is reminded of Jing Shus lousy expression. So, she asks, Mr. Beitang, I see that you know my a.s.sistant Shu. I believe Shu will be happier to take this offer from you, Mr. Beitang.

Beitang Xiu laughs, Never mind. Just kidding. I dont like to force people to do things they dont like.

Xia Nings eyes light up. What Mr. Beitang said implies that Shu has this opportunity. She treats Shu as her biological sister and pays particular attention to her life.

She wants to give Shu more opportunities apart from World Era Weekly.

Ive got another thing that Id love to hear your opinion, Chief Editor Xia. Im told that Chief Editor Xia is one of the major investors of the project Yu Di Long Tu. Tianyu Entertainment Company is also interested in this project.

Xia Ning pauses. Project Yu Di Long Tu is a significant project of C City. Though it is claimed to be open bidding, the actual investors are already designated. She knows that Mr. Beitang is up to something when getting involved in Tianyu Entertainment Company. It is not a surprise that he shows an interest in Project Yu Di Long Tu.

Really? The corner of Xia Nings mouth slightly lifts, May I ask about your plan, Mr. Beitang?

TCs board chairman Su Shen has been involved in some legal problems recently. Itll take a while before all settles down. I believe TCs problem will also affect your partners.h.i.+p. Thus, I think perhaps you can have a chat with other investors to see whether you should look for a new partner at this moment, Chief Editor Xia.

Xia Ning takes a moment to think and then says, I will discuss your proposal with other investors, Mr. Beitang. But Im afraid I cant give you an exact date for now. Please bear with me. Is this alright with you, Mr. Beitang?

No problem. Beitang Xiu nods without hesitation, I know you well, Chief Editor Xia. You always keep your word. Please take your time.

Thank you, Mr. Beitang.

They have some more chit-chat. Beitang Xiu is mainly here for the exclusive interview and Yu Di Long Tu. After finis.h.i.+ng the discussion, he leaves World Era Weekly.

Xia Ning turns to Jing Shu after Beitang Xiu left, Shu, what happened?

Jing Shu is anxious to hear this!

She hesitates for a while before nodding, knowing that she cannot cover it, Yes. I made a mistake. Punish me for this, Sister Xia...

Before Jing Shu finishes, someone knocks on the door. Jing Shu hurries to open it. An Lingxi and Christine are standing outside.

Jing Shu feels uneasy seeing Christine. She cannot help but clench her fist.

Deputy Editor An.

An Lingxi nods. She walks in, Can I have a word with you, Chief Editor Xia?

Yes. Xia Ning raises her hand, Come and take a seat.

An Lingxi sits down and takes a peek at Jing Shu, Its not something big. Im just here for a reminder.

Jing Shu suddenly has a bad feeling from An Lingxis gaze.

Xia Ning frowns slightly, Deputy Editor An, you may go ahead.

Okay. An Lingxi pauses, Something unpleasant happened outside the office, which our colleagues are murmuring now.

Hmm? Seeing that An Lingxi is looking at someone, Xia Ning also takes a peek at Jing Shu, Which is?

I heard that Shu has spilt her coffer on our important guest, right?

Xia Ning is surprised at her words. Jing Shu clenches her teeth.

Shu...

Yes. Jing Shu nods, Thats what I was trying to tell Chief Editor Xia. I was clumsy and spilt my coffee on Mr. Beitang by accident.

Xia Ning is surprised. Beitang Xiu did not say anything about it!

Im sorry, Chief Editor Xia...

Shu, this is not something that you can get over so easily. An Lingxi interrupts, Our colleagues are all watching.
