A Vicious Female Rival Omega is Sweet and Soft - Chapter 13
While Ye Yixi was waiting, her throat felt dry. Maybe she had been too nervous earlier, and now her throat was parched. Her gaze swept around the room. She did not see a water dispenser, but she did find a refrigerator. It was small and compact, not even as tall as she was.
There were probably a few bottles of mineral water stored inside. Ye Yixi was really thirsty, so she walked straight over in the slippers she had changed into. But when she opened it, what she saw was beyond her expectations. Only the bottom shelf held a row of vegetable and fruit juices. Every other space was filled with bottles and cans of milk in various brands and flavors, stuffing the small refrigerator completely full.
Ye Yixi rubbed her chin, somewhat at a loss.
There was no purified water, not even sparkling water. Did Shen Qingran usually love drinking these sweet little milks?
For a moment, Ye Yixi could not help herself, and her little mental theater began again.
During the day, Miss Shen was decisive and powerful, her aura fully unleashed. After scolding an employee who had made a mistake at the company, she went home, washed up, changed into sexy pajamas, then curled up on the bed holding a bottle of strawberry milk and sucked at it fiercely.
Wasn’t this contrast a bit too strong…?
She shook her head and immediately tossed those absurd images out of her mind.
But Shen Qingran’s pheromones were also like this—a sweet, creamy cake scent.
A little cake loved drinking little milks?
Ye Yixi was amused by the sentence that had suddenly popped into her head. But the more she understood Shen Qingran, the more interesting she found this person.
Ye Yixi looked at the sweet milks in front of her and did not know what to do. Originally, she only wanted to get a drink of water, but now she felt that casually taking someone else’s things did not seem very good.
So she stood in front of the refrigerator for a long while without successfully quenching her thirst. Just as she was struggling, she heard a click as the door was pushed open. Ye Yixi turned around and saw Shen Qingran, already changed into fresh clothes, looking at her with confusion.
“Hi, Miss Shen.”
Ye Yixi squeezed out an awkward smile, then used her knee to gently nudge the refrigerator door closed.
The whole movement was smooth as flowing water!
Shen Qingran: “…”
Ye Yixi slowly moved back to the sofa.
Looking at Shen Qingran’s cold expression, she suddenly felt as if she had been caught red-handed. Although she did not know what exactly she had been caught doing, she was indeed becoming more and more timid in front of Shen Qingran…
Without saying a word, Shen Qingran crossed her arms and neatly took out two bottles of milk from the refrigerator: one blueberry-flavored and one vanilla-flavored.
She lowered her head and looked at the two bottles in her hand, her brows slightly furrowed as if she were thinking. After struggling for a short while, she finally reached out and handed the vanilla one to Ye Yixi.
“Miss Ye, you can drink this.”
“Ah, thank you!”
That scene just now really looked like a little kitten cub sharing its beloved dried fish. After Ye Yixi took it, she felt that the bottle of milk had become especially weighty, as if she had received the other party’s treasure.
But her throat was practically about to catch fire. She could no longer hold back. Ye Yixi directly tore open the lid and drank almost half the bottle in one breath.
The cool and sweet vanilla milk instantly slid down her throat, as if a dried-up patch of grass had regained life. Ye Yixi’s entire body felt refreshed, and she relaxed, half-lying on the sofa.
Shen Qingran’s way of drinking was much more elegant. She lifted a small part of the lid and drank from the bottle in little sips. Some of the milk spilled out, forming a little white foam mustache around her mouth.
“Miss Ye, we contacted Gu An immediately and have already gotten a detailed understanding of the situation. We’ve also arranged to meet her at the company tomorrow to discuss our next steps. I’ve sent you the organized documents. Take a look first.”
Shen Qingran immediately threw herself into serious business.
However, Ye Yixi was still observing the little mustache around her mouth. Paired with her current milky apricot-colored homewear, Shen Qingran looked soft, fluffy, and fragrant all over. Compared to cake, she looked even more like a little cream puff right now.
Ye Yixi felt that she was probably sick. Why did she have so many metaphors for Shen Qingran, most of them even related to food?
Did she really look that delicious…?
After waiting for a long while without receiving a response, Shen Qingran instead received a tissue.
She raised her eyes and saw Ye Yixi reaching out with a napkin, wiping it against Shen Qingran’s chin. Ye Yixi’s expression was serious as she carefully wiped away the milk stains around her lips. Before Shen Qingran could react, Ye Yixi had already crumpled the tissue into a ball and thrown it into the trash can.
What was this situation…?
Shen Qingran’s eyelashes trembled lightly, and her heartbeat actually sped up. She slowly put down the milk in her hand and touched her own lips, somewhat at a loss.
“Alright, then I’ll take a look first.”
Ye Yixi picked up her phone and opened WeChat to check the file that had just been sent.
The general meaning was that Gu An had neither fought nor acted like a big shot. The cause was that Zhen Xiaobai had been harassed by a certain crew member, and Gu An had merely stepped forward. Who would have thought that the person would directly fall down and stage a fake injury? As a result, paparazzi photographed it and used it to make a huge fuss.
This matter was also quite speechless.
In such a large film crew, Zhen Xiaobai, as the female lead, was actually harassed in broad daylight. The original author really was too capable of pouring dog-blood drama just to create another heroic rescue scene. How many times had this happened already?
Forget it.
Ye Yixi was too lazy to think about these things.
It was just that public opinion was currently fermenting fiercely, so they had to quickly prepare public relations measures. Gu An’s personal studio had already been tagged by fans at least a hundred thousand times, all demanding that they hurry up and do anti-smear work for their sister.
However, since it was not the truth, Ye Yixi was not too worried.
When the time came, they could ask Zhen Xiaobai to come out and directly clarify things. If they appeared together, perhaps they could even stir up the CP a little and increase discussion.
After all, Ye Yixi used to be an expert at writing agricultural project proposals. Otherwise, how could she have worked her way up to the position of agricultural department manager in the real world?!
The netizens in this Mary Sue world should be even more brainless, right…? It felt like with just a little public opinion storm, these people could be led around by the nose.
After Ye Yixi carefully finished reading, she briefly discussed it with Shen Qingran. After receiving her agreement, she forwarded the document to her own assistant. She then spent a long time on the phone, giving instructions for who knew how long before finally ending the call.
“I don’t think there’s any major problem. When I go back, I’ll have my assistant prepare some articles to let things ferment a bit. Tomorrow… I’ll also go to S Entertainment. Let’s call Zhen Xiaobai over too.”
“Alright. On our side, we’ll first slightly control the direction of public opinion in the lower-tier market. Tomorrow, we can begin the clarification.”
Ye Yixi and Shen Qingran reached an agreement. When she checked her phone, she saw that not too much time had passed; it had only been a little over an hour. Who asked the original author’s entertainment-industry plot to be so unchallenging? It felt like it could be solved with ease.
But it really was getting late. Ye Yixi stretched and politely said goodbye to Shen Qingran.
As she was leaving Shen Qingran’s room, Ye Yixi’s sharp eyes noticed the corner of Shen Qingran’s socks peeking out from under her fully covered slippers.
Although it was only a tiny bit, Ye Yixi saw a familiar cartoon character…
It was Nini.
After returning home and changing her shoes, Ye Yixi lowered her head and looked at her own Crayon Shin-chan socks. She froze like a wooden chicken, not knowing what to say for a moment.
…Was Shen Qingran deliberately wearing couple socks with her?
…
The next day, Ye Yixi was woken up by her alarm.
She had set it for 8:30, but ended up slapping it onto the floor, destroying it on the spot.
Ye Yixi’s head buzzed. If she had known, she would not have arranged to meet Shen Qingran so early!
Yawning, she simply washed up and dressed herself, then drove straight to S Entertainment. In her memories, the original owner had come to this place many times, but when Ye Yixi saw it with her own eyes, she was still slightly surprised.
Wasn’t this building way too tall?
It practically pierced into the clouds. From top to bottom, the whole thing was made of large glass curtain walls, shining brightly under the sunlight.
Was this really an entertainment company?
If someone did not know better, they might think it was a palace.
She took the sightseeing elevator to the thirty-second floor. This was the floor where Shen Qingran’s office was located. When Ye Yixi pushed open the door and entered, she saw Shen Qingran dressed in professional attire, exuding the aura of a mature beauty, and beside her stood the extremely gentle and obedient Gu An.
Gu An was only wearing a simple women’s white shirt. She had rolled up her sleeves, revealing her wrists. With one hand braced on Shen Qingran’s desk, she bent down and leaned closer to discuss something with her. The two of them were very close, so close that their hair was almost tangled together.
This image of two talented and beautiful women fell into Ye Yixi’s eyes, but no matter how she looked at it, it was dazzlingly unpleasant. Even the morning irritation she had brought with her was provoked, and she felt as if her stomach was full of fire.
When Ye Yixi entered, she deliberately stepped hard in her high heels.
When people were unhappy, they would deliberately create noise to attract attention. Sure enough, Shen Qingran and Gu An both raised their heads at the same time and looked at her together.
Great.
Why were they so in sync?
What should she do if she felt even more unhappy now…
“Miss Ye, you’re here.”
“Right on time.”
Ye Yixi barely pulled out a smile and nodded at the two of them. Then she walked straight over, pulled out a chair, and plopped down in front of Shen Qingran.
Gu An stepped aside slightly.
For some reason, she vaguely felt that Ye Yixi was a little off. When Ye Yixi looked at her, it seemed as if several knives were about to fly out of her eyes, making Gu An feel uncomfortable all over.
But then she wondered if she was overthinking it. She had never offended this Miss Ye before, so she could only forcefully suppress that strange feeling.
“Miss Ye, what do you think we should do now?”
What should they do?
Nothing!
Thinking of the scene just now, she could not feel happy. And now she even had to help!
At this moment, Ye Yixi only wanted to viciously turn both of these two into snails. One would be sent to the tallest tree in the east, and the other would be exiled to the deepest pit in the west. In this lifetime, they could forget about crawling together!
Thoughts were thoughts, but the matter still had to be handled.
Ye Yixi placed the file in her hand on the table. These were several versions of the PR plans she had personally stayed up late revising last night. It was precisely because of this that she had nearly failed to get up this morning.
Shen Qingran took it and opened it, carefully reading through it.
As she read, the corners of her lips unconsciously curved into a smile.
Why had she never discovered before that Ye Yixi had this kind of talent?
“Have the team start working according to this method immediately,” Shen Qingran instructed the assistant standing nearby. Then she told Gu An again that she must cooperate properly, her face full of concern.
She really was taking this seriously.
Ye Yixi became unhappy again.
She really wanted to smack these two girls to death!
After being busy the entire morning, everyone had not even had time to eat breakfast.
Gu An’s stomach growled from hunger. A blush appeared on her refined and beautiful face. Her personality had always been gentle, so now she became embarrassed.
Shen Qingran immediately noticed. She rummaged through her bag, and before long, took out a small bottle of milk she had brought from home that morning. It was even strawberry-flavored.
She directly handed it to Gu An, indicating that she should drink it first to pad her stomach.
Ye Yixi watched this, practically bubbling with anger from every opening in her body.
She had not eaten anything either!
Just as Gu An had inserted the straw and was about to drink, Ye Yixi, who was quick-eyed and quick-handed, immediately snatched it over. She directly put it into her own mouth and took several fierce sips in front of the two of them.
“Ah, it’s really sweet. This stuff is my favorite. Why don’t you just let me have it? Gu An, you won’t mind, right?”
