Abigail appeared bringing two cups of cappuccino at hand. She looked refined wearing her suit and pencil skirt. Her doe eyes looked extra pretty with her hazel colored contact lenses and curled eyelashes.
She placed the cups of coffee on top of the center table and retreated to one side before slightly bowing and finally exiting Zhai Yao Hua's office.
Zhai Yao Hua picked up his cup and casually took a sip from it, his eyes never leaving Zhen Wei's. "Are you up for it?" He asked, leaning back on his chair.
"What is it?" Zhen Wei thought it wouldn't hurt if she took another task before Zhai Yao Hua considered her as an official manager. So whether if the task was hard nor easy, she would do what it takes to finish it. If it meant that she can earn Zhai Yao Hua's trust, which is the vital part. She needed a strong foundation so she should earn trust from those people she has in mind.
"I want you to handle Feng Yiu for the mean time. Prove to me that you're not just potential." Zhai Yao Hua wanted to know the extent of Zhen Wei's capabilities. He wanted to know if she's more than what he has in mind. He simply wanted to see her exceed his expectations once again before he decide to officially take her under his wing.
"Feng Yiu?" She asked, confused. She hasn't heard the name before.
"Ms. Lin." Abigail stepped forward and handed Zhen Wei a file she had gathered when Zhai Yao Hua called her attention. She had silently slipped outside in between their conversation earlier to get the file on her desk.
Zhen Wei scanned her eyes on the file that had Feng Yiu's informations. Feng Yiu was a rookie in the music industry. She was just about to debut but she had already accumulated a lot of fans already. A rising star indeed. Although Feng Yiu had entered the industry through connections, she managed to gather fans with her inborn talent.
"Lao Mei, Feng Yiu's manager is bearing a child. She had to take a leave soon because she's already nearing her month. I want you to take her place until she's able to get back to work." Zhao Yao Hua patiently explained.
"I had already made Ms. Lin inform Feng Yiu beforehand. You can go now and tend to her."
She kept the file and stood up. "Okay. I'll be going now, head manager Zhai." She bowed slightly before taking her leave.
Zhen Wei has already dismissed herself when Abigail spoke behind Zhai Yao Hua, "Is it alright not to tell her in detail?" Abigail asked, her voice had a hint of worry.
Zhai Yao Hua touched his chin, feeling the stubble as he caressed it with his fingers. "If she can't even handle a single rookie then she doesn't deserve to work under me." He spoke, his eyes narrowed.
Zhen Wei went inside an elevator. With the floor and room number in mind, she pressed the corresponding floor level. The elevator stopped at the third floor and Zhen Wei stepped out and strode her way towards Feng Yiu's private room, her weekly schedule at hand. Lao Mei had already took care of everything before she applied for leave so Zhen Wei should be able to take after what she left behind.
Stopping in front of room 307, Zhen Wei knocked softly three times before the door opened from within. A lady already in her last year of being a teen appeared in front of her. Her skin was fair that seemed like porcelain that was completely in contrast with her black halter dress. Her face was small with delicate features. She looked like a goody two shoes that surely everyone would like. Although surprisingly, her expression showed otherwise. Her eyebrows were scrunched together, her eyes narrowed and her lips formed into a frown. She didn't even bother to mask her contempt in front of her as she sized her up. "Who are you?" Her voice rang out in disdain, her face contorted, looking like a small kitten ready to pounce on someone to scratch on its face. Did she came in a wrong time?
"I'm Zhen Wei, I'll be handling you in place of Lao Mei as of today." She said, her voice calm, not even bothered by the young lady's temper.
Feng Yiu rolled her eyes and retreated herself inside, leaving the door open for Zhen Wei. "Who was that?" A man's voice echoed inside the room making Zhen Wei's eyebrows lift in confusion. Why would she have a man inside her room?
"A substitute." Feng Yiu snorted. Zhen Wei didn't mind her remark and just helped herself inside the room. This young lady clearly lacked ethics.
A young man wearing a white shirt and an unzipped black biker leather jacket on top, a silver crucifix necklace dangling on his neck, paired with a black ripped jeans and high cut black boots. His hair was bleached and was done in gray. The guy seemed like he was the same age as Feng Yiu. He looked like your typical bad boy vocalist idol that young girls will fawn over.
Feng Yiu sat beside him, crossing her legs in a leisurely manner as she leans against him. They look rather close.
Zhen Wei's eyes squinted slightly at the sight of the young man. He looked familiar to her, she must have seen him somewhere.
'Ah, yes! He was that famous rookie and the face of the band Apocalypse! What is he doing here? They're rather close, are they going out?' Zhen Wei recalled. She had seen the guy once during an interview aired in a television. He had just started his career and had been loved by the young ladies ever since he got to sing on a late night show with his band.
'I haven't heard about them.' She thought.
This was said to be against the rules of the company, so why are they seeing each other openly in front of her?
Zhen Wei didn't bother and just glanced again at the schedule at hand. Feng Yiu had a tv appearance today scheduled at eleven in the morning. It was almost time to go.
"You have an appearance at YesTv today, we should get going." Zhen Wei declared. Feng Yiu scrambled on her feet again. Quite hesitant to go.
"Yiu'er, you should go. Let's meet later, I also have a schedule at the radio station today. Long Qi must be looking for me already." Feng Yiu frowned and her arms folded across her chest. Su Chengyu stood up and let out a small laugh, he was quite taller than Feng Yiu so he slightly bent down to give her a peck on her cheeks that made Feng Yiu's eyes roll once again, her face forming into a smug.
Feng Yiu extended her arms and grabbed Su Chengyu by the neck as she planted a wet kiss on his lips. Su Chengyu responded by mutually grabbing her waist closer as he devours Feng Yiu's luscious red lips. The kiss lasted for a few seconds before they let go of each other. Zhen Wei looked at them with a weird look flashing on her face. She was dumbfounded. Her mouth slightly agape, threatening to drop any further moment.
