Lin Mu never expected to run into an "acquaintance" in such a place.
Lu Qing was even more surprised that such a high-end piano experience hall would have such a bratty little girl wandering around.
Bai Xing was also taken aback to discover that her senior had a "second girlfriend."
And Gao Ban certainly didn't expect that the young mistress would actually have "friends."
"……"
"……"
"……"
"……"
After the four of them exchanged glances.
"Um, Miss Gao Ban, are these all your guests?"
Seeing the regional general manager arrive, the hall manager immediately led seven or eight staff members in bowing and greeting her.
Gao Ban slightly raised her arm, ignoring the manager, and instead fixed her sharp gaze, like a falcon, on Lu Qing.
"Who are you?"
"Ah... We are students from Tianhai City Arts Academy. We had a phone appointment earlier to interview your company's marketing strategy this afternoon. My name is Lu Qing."
He introduced himself politely.
"Oh. Lu Qing. I see. Follow me later."
Gao Ban nodded slightly, then turned to Lin Mu, "Young mistress, do you still want to chat with your friend?"
"!"
Wait.
Young mistress?
At this title, Lu Qing was startled and frowned in analysis.
In the Mosse Experience Hall, this leader surrounded by the manager and staff, who clearly held an extraordinary status, referred to the brat as "young mistress"?
???
So, what exactly is the brat's background?
Before he could react, Lin Mu had already taken out her phone and started snapping photos of herself and Bai Xing.
"What the hell are you doing? Why are you taking my picture?"
The click-clack of the shutter, loud and unconcealed, was unbearably piercing. Lu Qing quickly shielded Bai Xing behind him and furrowed his brows, questioning Lin Mu.
"Huh?"
Lin Mu smirked, revealing a mix of amusement and triumph:
"Of course, it's for backup. Next time I meet your ex, I'll share these photos with her."
"?????"
Lu Qing thought he had misheard. Did the brat just say...
Something coherent?
Was this even human?
Not only did this move leave him dumbfounded, but even Bai Xing behind him seemed a bit unsteady.
Although her senior had instructed her not to speak out of turn, being suddenly photographed by a little girl and threatened with the photos to be sent to someone else was too much to bear.
Wait.
Hold on.
The senior's "ex-girlfriend"...
Suddenly.
Bai Xing's mind flashed with a possibility.
The only possible person.
"..."
Could it be "her"?
Bai Xing's face tightened as she analyzed calmly.
She knew.
First, it was a given that her senior would never be in a relationship.
Second, she lived next door to him and, through two years of observation, could confirm that he never interacted with any females.
His method of cutting off contact was razor-sharp.
If you made the first move, he'd politely respond once;
If you pushed further, it would provoke his dislike;
If you persisted, you'd be blocked or ignored.
"..." Her senior's time was limited, and he had so much to do. Plus, he was now taking care of "her." Where would he find the time for a girlfriend?
Bai Xing quickly realized that he must have been seen with Su Ling and misunderstood by this rude little girl.
In that case...
"Perfect."
She took a small step forward, raised her face slightly toward him, and, with an expression that said "you're so perceptive," she tightly hugged Lu Qing's arm.
...
Lu Qing was feeling a headache.
Just like last time, he had no way to deal with Lin Mu.
"Old Li asked me to sneak a photo of Mu Xia, but instead of finding Mu Xia, I got photographed by this 'young mistress'..."
Huh?
This was a bit ridiculous.
Was this karma?
Even pretending to agree with Old Li wasn't an option; it would backfire because of my impure thoughts.
Alright, I was wrong.
I won't dare to do it again.
Lu Qing knew that even if he asked her to delete the photos, she wouldn't agree.
So, he decided not to say anything more and planned to follow Gao Ban to the hall's reception room to get the main task done.
He thought that running into the brat at Mosse was purely coincidental. Even if she got a photo, she wouldn't have Su Ling's contact information.
As long as he didn't take his sister to that Twilight Café again, everything would be safe.
Heh, you can stay in your information cocoon. Taking photos doesn't matter. You think you can get to me?
Naive.
With this mindset, Lu Qing wasn't in a hurry anymore. He directly wanted to enter the hall with Bai Xing.
But how could Lin Mu let him off?
She ran a few steps and asked, "Hey, why are you interviewing Mosse?"
"What's it to you?"
Lu Qing retorted irritably, "Also, I'm not 'Hey.' I think I just told you my name."
"Huh? Lu Qing, right? You dare not say?"
"I just won't say. What about it?"
"Fine, fine, fine."
Lin Mu pointed her finger at him and then smiled as she walked around to the front of the group, addressing Gao Ban, "Sister Gao Ban, I really dislike this guy. Can I go find my sister and have her tell the security to throw this guy out?"
"Of course."
Lu Qing: "???"
What?
"Wait, what are you doing??"
Being treated like this, he was a bit flustered.
It had to be said, in Lu Qing's life, such discomfort was rare.
"This brat wants to ruin my assignment!"
He was in a panic.
From childhood to adulthood, all his assignments had been passed, never once failing.
After entering university, he had even completed all group assignments independently, with final scores always above 85.
Now, this girl was trying to break his first record through personal connections?
To leave a single blemish in his academic career?
No.
Absolutely not allowed!
Just as Lu Qing was about to think of a way, Lin Mu spoke again:
"Hey, if you want to get things done smoothly, you'd better listen to me. Understand?"
Her threat was very explicit.
"..."
This feeling of being led by the nose made Lu Qing increasingly uncomfortable. Clearly, he wasn't someone to be trifled with.
He sneered,
Grabbed Bai Xing's sleeve, and turned to leave.
"Senior?"
Bai Xing widened her beautiful eyes, looking like a kitten protected by its owner as she was led by the hand.
Lu Qing said:
"Let's go. We'll switch to another company for the interview. Mosse is too big-headed. We're not worthy."
Without looking back, he spoke while walking and picked up his phone, finding Li Mingshi on WeChat, pressing the voice button to say:
"Sorry, Old Li, I can't get your thing done. I won't choose this company for the assignment. I'll treat you to drinks next time."
After that,
His gaze, cold as the abyss, swept over the little girl standing beside Gao Ban—
He glared at her fiercely.
...
In that moment.
Lin Mu frowned, feeling as if she had fallen into a deep abyss.
...
...

grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too.
