“Director Li, are you satisfied with the results this time?” Xu Yixue changed out of her clothes and, holding a cup of fragrant jasmine tea, stood in front of Li Lidong.

“Satisfied, truly very satisfied, President Xu! I, Li Lidong, admire you! It’s a pity you’re not a performer. With your image and stage presence, if you debuted, you would absolutely be the strongest queen in Yan Country.”

“Director Li overpraises me. I’m merely stepping in to help. The entertainment industry is too exhausting; I don’t like it.” Xu Yixue took a light sip of her tea and spoke indifferently.

“That’s too bad,” Li Lidong sighed with a bit of regret.

“I’m quite tired from the shoot, so I’ll take my leave first. As for post-production, I hope Director Li will pay it extra attention,” Xu Yixue said gracefully.

“No problem, I will make this magazine shoot this year’s hit! When the time comes, I will send you a copy of the magazine sample for your review,” Li Lidong confidently told Xu Yixue.

“In that case, I’ll leave it to Director Li. See you later.” Xu Yixue waved her hand at Li Lidong and slowly walked out of the studio.

Li Lidong watched Xu Yixue’s stunning departure, feeling a trace of wistfulness, but then his eyes immediately gleamed with excitement as he saw the storage card the photographer handed over.

“I’m going to have the ‘Beautiful Lady’ magazine team work overnight, striving to finalize the magazine tonight!” With the storage card in hand, Li Lidong excitedly dashed out the door.

In Asia Star Interactive Entertainment Group’s ‘Beautiful Lady’ magazine office, the lights shone brightly.

All the designers were working overtime at their computers, designing this issue of the magazine.

Originally, they all begrudgingly worked overtime due to Director Li’s mandatory order, but as soon as they saw the material Li Lidong brought back, they exploded with excitement and volunteered to join the overnight work.

“Damn, she’s simply too beautiful! A celestial fairy indeed! Quick, tell me her name, I want to get her autograph!”

“How can there be such a beautiful woman in the world? I’m willing to work overtime until I vomit blood, just to produce the magazine.”

“There’s such a goddess in the entertainment circle, why haven’t I seen her before? To think that I, the number one paparazzo in the magazine world, Zuo Wei, don’t even recognize this beauty.”

Although they often dealt with female celebrities from the entertainment industry, it was their first time seeing a goddess as ethereally beautiful as Xu Yixue. They were all filled with anticipation for the effect this magazine issue would have, so they confidently joined the overnight work, vowing to have the magazine sample ready by morning.

The entire magazine team of more than thirty people worked through the night and finally produced the sample. By then, it was already nine in the morning, and Li Lidong, with huge dark circles under his eyes, sent the sample to the headquarters for review, and also arranged for a copy to be delivered to Xinghai Entertainment.

After busying himself with everything, and just as he prepared to fall into a deep sleep, Li Lidong’s phone began to ring incessantly.

Li Lidong, with bleary eyes, glanced at the caller ID and immediately snapped awake.

“Hello, Mr. Qin, good morning,” Li Lidong greeted cautiously.

“Lidong, how is the task I assigned you progressing?” Mr. Qin’s voice came through the phone.

“Qin… Mr. Qin… I’m sorry. I was being difficult here and there, but in the end, Xinghai Media found a breakthrough. The shoot is finished, and the sample is already made,” Li Lidong said a bit guiltily to Mr. Qin.

“Dammit, Li Lidong, what the hell are you doing? How did I instruct you, did your brain short-circuit or something?” Mr. Qin cursed at Li Lidong over the phone.

“Mr. Qin, I was truly being as picky as possible when challenging Xinghai Entertainment. It’s just that the person who came for the audition was beyond reproach. I had no choice but to agree to the collaboration,” Li Lidong spoke like a wronged little wife, muttering his words.

“Dammit, you’re really more trouble than you’re worth, and no one can be flawless—I just don’t buy it!”

“It’s the president of Xinghai Entertainment, Xu Yixue. She personally stepped in to do the shoot this time, and the final product is simply amazing. I’ve looked it over and over but can’t find a single flaw.”

“Xu Yixue, huh? If she was personally involved in the shooting, it must indeed be close to perfect.”

“Exactly, the result is absolutely perfect! That’s why I worked overnight to make a sample and have already submitted it for review to the head office. I’m confident we can win the Best Magazine Award this year.”

“Idiot, who let you submit it for review at the headquarters? Once they approve it, no one can change it—do you understand that?”

“I acted out of urgency…”

“Dammit, you idiot, I’ll deal with you later.”

The call was disconnected, followed by a dial tone.

Li Lidong looked at the phone, on the verge of tears.

Though the Annual Best Magazine Award was tempting, this young master Qin was someone he couldn’t afford to provoke.

If this issue of ‘Beautiful’ magazine actually wins the big prize, it’s hard to tell whether it would be a blessing or a curse.

In the heart of Zhonghai City, inside a magnificent skyscraper, a young man in his twenties slammed his phone down onto the floor.

He was handsome with fair skin, dressed in a well-fitted Armani suit, and wore a Patek Philippe watch worth a million.

Currently leaning back on a genuine leather sofa, his eyes occasionally flashed a sinister light.

He was the heir to the Zhonghai Qin Family, Qin Haowen.

A while ago, he had a fleeting encounter with Xu Yixue and has been infatuated with her ever since, insanely pursuing her.

In theory, driving a sports car and presenting 999 roses, he could make countless girls scream. Unfortunately, when it came to Xu Yixue, she didn’t even spare him a glance.

Qin Haowen felt challenged. When he pursued women, he usually had them within three days, and right after sleeping with them, he would promptly dump them.

But chasing Xu Yixue now, it’s been an entire month. He’d used every pickup trick and technique he knew, yet Xu Yixue showed absolutely no interest in him. Instead, she avoided him at all costs, never giving him a chance to get close.

So Qin Haowen made inquiries everywhere, found out about the cooperation between ‘Beautiful’ magazine and Xinghai Media and, after using a mix of pressure and persuasion, finally got the production supervisor, Li Lidong, on board to trouble Xinghai Media and make them fail in this crucial collaboration.

This was just the first step. In Qin Haowen’s plan, he aimed to cripple Xinghai Media step by step, making Xu Yixue completely shed her strong woman facade. That way, he would have his opportunity to take advantage of her at her most vulnerable moment.

Unfortunately, the fool Li Lidong was not up to snuff, allowing her to turn the tables in one fell swoop, not only achieving cooperation but also creating work that even Li Lidong had to praise.

“This is getting more and more interesting. A clever woman is all the more exciting to play with,” Qin Haowen said, licking his lips with excitement.

“Xu Yixue, I must conquer you, make you wag your tail and beg for mercy before me.”
