Urban Film and Television: Jiang Lai is the Top Choice

Andy was very upset after returning to his room. First, Wei Wei invited Yang Chu and the others to have dinner together without saying a word. Then, Wei Wei tested Yang Chu and the others in various ways and finally tried to embarrass them. This made Andy even more upset.

Besides feeling frustrated, Andy also thought about what Fan Shengmei had told her before, and how Yang Chu and the others had misunderstood her, which made her not only frustrated but also a little irritable.

After Wei Wei left the restaurant, Fan Shengmei and the others also left one after another.

However, Fan Shengmei, Guan Juer, Qiu Yingying, and Wang Baichuan reunited and came to Fan Shengmei's suite.

Wang Baichuan looked at Fan Shengmei with some curiosity and asked, "What does that Yang Chu do? I always feel like he has a very powerful background."

Guan Juer nodded in agreement, saying, "Yes! And that Jiang Lai also seems to have quite a background."

Qiu Yingying nodded in agreement, then took out her phone and showed the description and price of a 2006 Romanée-Conti that she had searched for.

"The wine we're drinking today costs 250,000 yuan a bottle. If it were sold in this resort, it certainly wouldn't be cheap. Jiang Lai ordered this wine so casually, she must have known the price, but she didn't even blink before ordering it."

Seeing Wang Baichuan and the others staring at her, Fan Shengmei said helplessly, "Why are you all looking at me? I don't even know what they do. Although Yang Chu is our neighbor, we usually interact with each other when we're together. You don't know him, and neither do I!"

Qiu Yingying said dejectedly, "That's true! Every time I run into Yang Chu in the neighborhood, I just nod and we don't even exchange more than a few words. As for Jiang Lai, I've never even greeted her, so I know even less about her."

Guan Juer nodded vigorously and said, "That Jiang Lai is always fierce and seems difficult to get along with. I haven't even greeted her."

Fan Shengmei smiled and said to Guan Juer, "That's not that she's fierce, that's the aura of someone in a superior position, just like Andy. If you don't interact with her often, she can seem fierce and cool."

Guan Juer and Qiu Yingying nodded. Guan Juer said thoughtfully, "Our manager is usually fierce, but he's actually a good person."

But Qiu Yingying asked, somewhat puzzled, "What about Yang Chu? Why doesn't he have that air of authority? I feel like he's about the same as us, but today he seemed like someone who wasn't simple."

Fan Shengmei and Guan Juer really couldn't answer the question Qiu Yingying raised. They also felt that Yang Chu was not simple, but Yang Chu was no different from them in his daily life.

Just then, Wang Baichuan said thoughtfully, "Maybe they're just being low-key! If they're no different from you guys normally, then their high-profile appearance today means that President Wei did something to force them to be so high-profile."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Fan Shengmei and the others, wanting to hear their opinions, but they were all deep in thought, as if they hadn't heard what Wang Baichuan said at all.

Wang Baichuan knew that they hadn't missed what he said; on the contrary, they were pondering his words.

Just as Fan Shengmei and the others were thinking, Wang Baichuan continued, "During the meal today, did you notice that President Wei seemed to be testing Yang Chu and Jiang Lai the whole time?"

Guan Juer and Qiu Yingying nodded repeatedly and said, "Indeed, I could see that too. It seems that President Wei has been testing Yang Chu and Jiang Lai, but Jiang Lai has been refusing to respond, which has embarrassed President Wei several times."

"That's right! I thought I was the only one who felt it, but I also felt that President Wei seemed to want to embarrass Yang Chu and the others, which is why he didn't step forward to sign the contract in the end."

Fan Shengmei nodded thoughtfully and said, "Guan Guan, what you just said about not signing the contract in the end was probably President Wei testing Yang Chu to see if he really had the ability or was just bluffing."

Qiu Yingying seemed to have thought of something, and looked at Fan Shengmei and Guan Juer, saying, "Do you two still remember that guy from the night Qu Xiaoxiao had a party at home?"

Fan Shengmei and Guan Juer both tried to recall what happened that night, but Guan Juer couldn't remember at all.

Which man was it?

"It's Yao Bin! The one who answered my call when I knocked on his door."

Upon hearing Qiu Yingying's words, Fan Shengmei and Guan Juer immediately remembered.

Fan Shengmei looked at Qiu Yingying and said, "You mean that the 30% off card that Yang Chu had was given to Yang Chu by Yao Bin?"

Qiu Yingying nodded repeatedly and said, "I do have this suspicion, otherwise why would Yang Chu have brought up Yao Bin!"

After hearing what Fan Shengmei and the others were saying, Wang Baichuan thoughtfully asked, "About how old is Yao Bin?"

Guan Juer replied without hesitation, "About the same age as us, so what?"

Wang Baichuan shook his head and said, "If it's someone around your age, that 30% off card probably wasn't given by Yao Bin. It should have been given by Yao Bin's elders or family members. Didn't you hear what the waiter said? It seems like there aren't many 30% off cards available, so it's impossible for a young person like Yao Bin to just give them away casually."

Fan Shengmei nodded in agreement with Wang Baichuan's conjecture, saying, "Baichuan is probably right. If Yao Bin can give Yang Chu such an expensive card so easily, it means that Yao Bin has an incredibly powerful background."

The four of them speculated about Yang Chu and Jiang Lai, but in the end, after guessing for a while, they all fell silent.

Qiu Yingying said somewhat angrily, "Why are we guessing about them? It has nothing to do with us."

Guan Juer said with some hesitation, "But they paid us to play here, we can't just pretend we don't know, can we?"

Fan Shengmei nodded and said, "That is indeed a problem. Although we benefited from Andy's help, we still need to express our gratitude."

Qiu Yingying said impatiently, "But how are we supposed to thank them? They invited us here, so it must have cost them a lot. Even if I sold myself, I still couldn't afford to thank them!"

Fan Shengmei rolled her eyes at Qiu Yingying and said, "Who told you to go bankrupt thanking them? Next time we meet in the neighborhood, a few words of thanks will suffice. They don't care about whether they treat us or not. They only treated us today to embarrass President Wei. You need to know what's important."

After being enlightened by Fan Shengmei, Guan Juer finally understood the intricacies of the situation.

"Sister Fan is right. We don't need to go out of our way to thank her. It's enough to say a few words of thanks when we meet her."
