After quickly wearing the second male lead who was rejected
Chapter 295 Is He a Commodity? (12)
After two days of rest, Gu Chang has to start working wholeheartedly again.
This time he has to go to City A with Yu Guanmiao to participate in a fashion show.
It takes about four days to go back and forth, so Gu Chang can't look for Pandora's Box in City M for the time being.
But Gu Chang didn't expect that when he was sitting in the first class of the plane, he unexpectedly saw someone.
Feng Yiheng.
The other person was wearing an off-white shirt and gray suit pants, and was looking down at a magazine in his hand.
Gu Chang recognized that magazine; the model on the cover was him.
Feng Yiheng seemed to notice Gu Chang walking towards him, and looked up at him, "Long time no see, Artis."
Gu Chang nodded slightly, "Yes, long time no see." In fact, it had only been one night since they last saw each other.
At this moment, Yu Guanmiao walked over. She wore gray gradient sunglasses, her long burgundy hair tied up high, accessorized with an exaggerated skull. Her full lips, painted with bright red lipstick, pursed slightly before she spoke, "Artis, is this your friend?"
Gu Chang nodded gently, "Yes, Sister Yu. His last name is Feng, Feng Yiheng. Yiheng, this is my boss."
Yu Guanmiao raised her eyebrows, she was very familiar with this surname Feng.
Feng Yiheng stood up and said to Yu Guanmiao in a friendly manner, "Hello."
Yu Guanmiao curved her red lips and said, "Hello, I'm Yu Guanmiao."
After a brief greeting, several people sat down in their seats.
It just so happened that Gu Chang's seat was right next to Feng Yiheng, and Yu Guanmiao's seat was in the front row, towards the inside.
Feng Yiheng waited for Gu Chang to sit down before he sat down himself. He picked up the magazine on the small table and turned the cover towards Gu Chang. "This one captures your eyes very well."
Gu Chang smiled and said, "When I took this photo, I didn't even know they were taking pictures of my eyes."
Feng Yiheng also smiled gently, "Was the filming tough?"
Gu Chang shook his head gently, "I can accept it."
The system whispered quietly, "I have a feeling he knew your schedule, Host, so he flew here to see you."
Gu Chang: "Then let me ask?"
After answering the system's question, Gu Chang asked Feng Yiheng: "Yiheng, are you going to City A too?"
Feng Yiheng put the magazine in his hand aside. He had deep eyebrows and eyes, so when he looked at people, his eyes would be deeper.
"Yes, my grandfather is in City A. It's his birthday in a few days." When Feng Yiheng talked about his grandfather, respect would appear in his eyes. Changing the subject, Feng Yiheng asked Gu Chang: "Artis, what are you doing in City A?"
Gu Chang's lips curled slightly: "Participate in a fashion show."
Feng Yiheng: "When does it start?"
Gu Chang thought for a moment, then said, "Come to the fashion show on the 15th and 16th. We'll be back in City M on the 17th."
Today is the 14th, around 10 am, and we arrived in City A around 2 pm.
Feng Yiheng's birthday party is on the 18th.
At this moment, the cell phone in Gu Chang's trouser pocket vibrated.
So Gu Chang took out his phone and opened it. It was a message from Yu Guanmiao.
Yu Guanmiao: "Do you want to tell him about your household registration as well?"
Gu Chang, “…”
Feng Yiheng also saw the content on the phone. He pursed his lips and then began to communicate with Gu Chang on the phone. Both of them turned their phones to silent mode.
Feng Yiheng: "Artis, are you free on the 18th? Do I want to take you to my grandfather's birthday party?"
Gu Chang: "Did I go with you as a friend?"
When Feng Yiheng saw this message, his finger hovered over the phone screen without moving.
Friends? Of course not.
But now he couldn't tell Gu Chang that he had specially prepared a surprise.
Feng Yiheng: "Not yet."
Gu Chang: "Okay. I can go with you on the 18th."
Because if the fashion show ends perfectly, Yu Guanmiao promised to give Gu Chang three days of vacation.
It seems that Yu Guanmiao attaches great importance to this show.
Feng Yiheng: "(Smiling expression)"
Gu Chang: "(Puppy's happy smile)"
Yu Guanmiao, who was sitting in the front row, heard that the back row was very quiet. She curled her red lips and started typing on the screen of her mobile phone with her fingers with long pure black manicure.
Yu Guanmiao: "Sister, you lose."
Yu Damei: "Why??"
Yu Guanmiao: "Because Artis is unleashing her charm on a mature man. You know, like a peacock spreading its feathers."
Yu Damei: [Red Envelope]
Yu Damei: "I accept the loss. Please give Artis a cup of coffee."
Yu Guanmiao: “:)”
After getting off the plane, a special car came to pick up Yu Guanmiao and Gu Chang.
After watching Gu Chang get into the car, Feng Yiheng took out his cell phone and made a call.
"Yeah, Grandpa. It's me. I'm already here."
------
The black car drove all the way to the entrance of the Crown Hotel.
This is a five-star hotel specially booked by Yu Guanmiao.
Yu Guanmiao got out first, tilted his head slightly to Gu Chang and said, "This is really unusual. Every time I come to the Crown Hotel, there's always a half-hour traffic jam. This time, there wasn't one."
Gu Chang smiled and said, "Maybe I'm just lucky today."
As the two were talking, several service staff dressed in the hotel's black and white attire came over.
The expressions on their faces were very enthusiastic, and they led Gu Chang and Yu Guanmiao into the hotel.
The two of them had a single room each on the sixth floor.
Before entering his room, Yu Guanmiao turned around and called out to Gu Chang, "By the way, Artis. Someone will be coming up to dress you up in an hour. Remember to take time to eat something, as we have a dinner party at nine o'clock tonight."
Gu Chang nodded gently: "Okay."
A dinner party is nothing more than an occasion for people from all walks of life to come and mingle.
Gu Chang is very familiar with dinner parties.
But before leaving, Yu Guanmiao did not tell Gu Chang that he would have to attend a dinner party.
An hour later, a professional team knocked on the door of Gu's room.
Gu Chang walked to the door and opened it. Seeing that these people were all wearing the same gray sweatshirt, he said politely, "Please come in."
It took about four hours before Gu Chang was finally able to catch his breath.
He was wearing a high-end black velvet suit and trousers. From the right shoulder to the left corner of his clothes, it was dotted with silver fragments, forming a faint Milky Way band.
Her hair was combed back, revealing her forehead and long black eyebrows. She had bangs in a comma-shaped style. The rest of her slightly curly black hair was held up with a sterling silver hair ornament and hung down behind her.
Those warm black eyes seemed to be filled with starlight, and some eyeliner was lightly added at the end of the eyes, making his eyes look more charming and profound.
Gu Chang sat on the dark brown sofa with a panoramic floor-to-ceiling window behind him.
The off-white curtains were drawn open, revealing the street view outside the window.
The photographer told him what kind of pose and feeling he needed, and Gu Chang followed what he said and added some of his own understanding to strike a suitable pose.
After a series of snaps, the time came to 8:10.
At this time, Yu Guanmiao also walked into the room. She had re-applied makeup on her face, making her look very intellectual and generous.
Yu Guanmiao usually wears a bold, bold makeup look. She changed it up today, suggesting this evening's look might be a little different.
"Artis, you don't need to do anything to attend the dinner this time. Just smile. We're here to discuss business, and we need to show those people your value." Yu Guanmiao smiled slightly. Then he turned and walked out. Her long burgundy hair was braided and coiled at the back of her head. A circle of pearls adorned her hair.
Value...Is he a commodity?
Gu Chang sighed lightly. Yu Guanmiao's words made Gu Chang feel that this dinner was not an ordinary one.
And he is not the product that Yu Guanmiao wants to show to others.
The dinner started off smoothly, but there were some setbacks along the way. The main issue was someone accidentally spilling red wine on Gu Chang, who dodged it with his quick eyes and hands.
After the dinner, Gu Chang said hello to Yu Guanmiao and then returned to the Crown Hotel.
During the dinner, many people came over to talk to Gu Chang, and some of them came just to see him.
Gu Chang frowned in annoyance. He took out his cell phone and called Ike.
After the call was connected, Gu Chang spoke up: "Mr. Ike, how long will our cooperation with Yu Guanmiao last?"
Ike seemed to have anticipated Gu Chang's question, so after a brief silence, Ike's voice rang out: "Mr. Artis, I can tell you how long the cooperation with Ms. Yu will last. But I want to ask you a question first."
Gu Chang: "You ask."
Ike said in a deep voice: "Have you found the right person?"
Gu Chang: “Found it.”
Ike paused, then asked, "Who is it?"
Gu Chang answered very straightforwardly: "It's the one you've met. His name is Feng Yiheng."
After hearing this, Ike chuckled and said, "Okay, Mr. Artis. I understand."
"The cooperation agreement we signed with Ms. Yu is for ten years. This year marks the ninth year." Ike paused, then continued, "You should know that when a demon signs a contract with a human, it takes away what they value most. Ms. Yu knows this, so she asked us to help her realize her dream."
Gu Chang hesitated for a moment before asking, "Mr. Ike, why are you telling me this?"
Ike answered readily, "Of course, Mr. Artis, you should prepare as soon as possible. If you want to be with Mr. Feng for a long time, then he will have to give up what he cherishes most. You must know that after completing your mission, you will have to leave the human world."
In fact, Gu Chang has also thought about this question: How can humans and demons survive in the long run?
In fact, the answer to the question is right in front of Gu Chang.
The enslaver had said that Ike had been with a human woman.
At that time, Ike's eyes were full of forbearance, and his hands hanging by his sides were unconsciously clenched.
That at least proves that what the enslaver said was not entirely false.
So how did Ike stay in the human world for so long?
Is it also like what Ike said, that he needs his lover to give up something precious?
So Gu Chang asked directly: "Then Mr. Ike, did you pay anything you valued?"
There was a long silence on the other end of the phone, so long that Gu Chang thought the call was hung up.
Ike's voice suddenly rang out: "Mr. Artis. There's still plenty of time, so there's no need to rush."
"If you don't like attending this kind of dinner, I can explain the situation to Miss Yu." After he said that, he hung up the phone.
Gu Chang slowly put down his phone, his eyes darkening.
Ike obviously didn't want to answer Gu Chang's question, so he avoided the topic.
Now a question arises: which demon did Yu Guanmiao sign a contract with, and what is the content of the contract?
Gu Chang didn't know any of this. The only ones who knew the answers were Yu Guanmiao and Ike.
Obviously, Yu Guanmiao would most likely not tell Gu Chang these things, but Ike seemed to know something.
Therefore, he was very supportive of Gu Chang's participation in this dinner. Before Gu Chang left, Ike even said, "Mr. Artis, I hope that when you go to City A this time, you can understand the true relationship between humans and demons."
The relationship between humans and demons...
Gu Chang sighed. How come this felt like a hidden mission had been triggered?
After half an hour.
Yu Guanmiao took a special car back to the Crown Hotel. As she took the elevator, she opened the small black bag in her hand, took out a cigarette and a small black lighter, opened the lid of the lighter, and a brilliant flame immediately shot out.
After lighting the cigarette, Yu Guanmiao took a deep breath and then slowly exhaled the bluish-white smoke.
"Really? I know I can't smoke anymore..." Yu Guanmiao clicked his tongue and flicked the cigarette between his slender fingers.
As soon as the elevator door opened, Yu Guanmiao walked out.
When she saw Gu Chang leaning against the door, she stopped.
"Artis, it's almost eleven o'clock now. You are waiting for me." Yu Guanmiao's tone was very sure. She knew that Gu Chang had something to ask her, so she took another puff of her cigarette and said, "Come on, let's talk in the rest area."
The lounge area is equipped with a comfortable single sofa and the lighting is bright and warm.
Gu Chang and Yu Guanmiao sat opposite each other.
Yu Guanmiao leaned forward, stretched out his hand holding the cigarette, and flicked the ash into the transparent ashtray.
"Artis, please ask any questions you have. If I can answer you, please do so." Her voice was a little hoarse because she had talked a lot at the previous dinner.
Gu Chang crossed his legs and leaned back. His voice was cold: "Ms. Yu, why didn't you tell me in advance that I was going to a dinner party? As an employee of your company, I should have the right to know."
Yu Guanmiao smiled, but her smile seemed somewhat casual. "Employee? Artis, you are not an employee of my company. We are just partners, so I don't need to tell you this."
"Didn't Ike tell you?" She paused after saying this, then continued, "I thought demons also loved each other."
Gu Chang smiled faintly. "Don't be sarcastic, Ms. Yu. You are a talented designer and you have opened your own company. Isn't that enough to support you to gain a foothold in City A?"
"From what I understand, your family is also a prestigious one. Logically speaking, Miss Yu doesn't need to socialize in person."
Hearing what Gu Chang said, Yu Guanmiao's eyes turned cold.
