"Sister Ming, didn't you say that Mr. Huo would arrive on ti? How co he hasn't shown up yet?" Ying Bingling kept glancing at her wristwatch, and it was almost dinnerti.
She had been standing by the floor-to-ceiling window in the private room, waiting patiently to avoid wrinkling her elegant dress, lest she appear disrespectful in front of Huo Shao Ting.
But after waiting and waiting, her toes were almost numb, and there was still no sign of Huo Shao Ting.
Ming Xin gave her a cold and complex look. "How would I know? I'm not Mr. Huo."
She had really underestimated this Ying Bingling!
After the charity night incident, she had warned her when she returned.
Once the charity night was over, Ying Bingling had secured valuable resources and landed several dostic brand endorsents, even signing contracts with a few major international brands.
Her popularity had surpassed the overseas scandal involving Rong Dai, yet she was still this greedy!
Stunned by Ming Xin's words, Ying Bingling's expression stiffened slightly before she quickly tried to placate her. "Sister Ming, I'm only doing this for my career!"
"I know what I'm doing. I've been in this industry for so long; I'm well aware of how these scandals are fanned."
"Besides, the more I earn, the more you get too, right?"
"I haven't forgotten what I should do. As an actress, I can give so people what they want to see."
Ying Bingling hurried forward and grabbed Ming Xin's wrist, explaining in a soft, gentle voice.
Ming Xin stared into her eyes, her expression cold and suspicious. "Are you sure?"
Ying Bingling smiled sweetly. "Sister Ming, I know you care about an artist's public image, and I understand Mr. Huo's needs."
"I'm not that foolish to dig my own grave."
"This is an opportunity Mr. Huo gave , so of course, I'll perform well."
She explained half-truthfully and half-deceptively. Indeed, she had to cherish this stroke of luck.
But as for other matters, she believed that with enough effort, everything could be achieved gradually.
She knew n's hearts too well; there was no such thing as absolute loyalty in this world.
Even a man like Huo Shao Ting, who had tasted the finest delicacies, would crave a simple bowl of rice porridge sotis.
She didn't mind being that simple bowl of rice porridge.
"It's good if you rember that, or else you'll be ruining your own career."
Ming Xin was half-convinced.
Although she knew Ying Bingling's character well and understood that Ying Bingling valued her own career: otherwise, she wouldn't have made it this far so smoothly: she still hoped that Ying Bingling would cherish this opportunity, after which a bright future awaited!
However, she couldn't guarantee that Ying Bingling wouldn't fall for Huo Shao Ting's charm.
While she was aware of Ying Bingling's acting skills, and Ying Bingling had explained it that way, this person was Huo Shao Ting.
"Sister Ming, I understand."
How could she not understand?
That's why she had to be patient and take it slow, at least allowing Mr. Huo to rember who she was first.
Just as they finished their conversation, the door to the private room opened.
Huo Shao Ting's expression was as cold as ever, his suit impeccable, his presence as imposing as always.
"Mr. Huo."
Upon seeing Huo Shao Ting, Ying Bingling imdiately greeted him with a gentle smile.
After entering, Huo Shao Ting stood by the door, one hand in his pocket, his expression cool as he looked at her. "Eat by yourself. I'll leave once you're done."
With that, he walked over and sat down on the sofa.
Ying Bingling's smile stiffened slightly. Although Ming Xin wasn't entirely reassured, she couldn't stay and intrude.
She also needed to extract so information from Zhang Assistant to be on the safe side.
After Ming Xin left, Ying Bingling relaxed a little, her face breaking into a charming smile as she approached Huo Shao Ting.
"Mr. Huo..."
Her voice was soft, sweet, and tinged with a whining tone that could lt one's scalp!
