"Nope, I am as surprised as you are"
"Do you think that this was arranged by the Studio?"
"No, I don't think so Qiao Qiao. If it was, I think I would have been informed before the announcement"

The next day
Liu Qiao Qiao woke up later than usual, she had gone to bed late in the night. She had spent late hours of the night making a bracelet, to thank Director Lu for helping her refute the dating rumors.
She had initially gone over to thank Sister Zhenzhen for clearing her name but had been directed back to Lu Zhiyuan.
She got down from the bed, rushed into the bathroom, and got dressed in casual clothes and sneakers.
Twenty minutes later, she arrived at Baiyu Studios.
Liu Qiao Qiao was seated on a couch at the artist Director's office, playing a game on her phone.
When she heard a familiar voice just outside the door. The voice belonged to Lu Zhiyuan, one of the executive directors of Baiyu Studios.
She threw her phone into her pause and picked up the pink paper bag next to her pause. She jumped up from the seat and ran out of the office. Lu Zhiyuan was a short distance away from the door, she called out his name and ran up to him.
"Teacher Lu"
Lu Zhiyuan heard his name called, he turned around and saw a casually dressed Liu Qiao Qiao running up to him.
"Qiao Qiao, what's going on?
"Hello. Teacher Lu can you please spare a few minutes, to speak with me"
"sure"
"Thanks, this is for you" she handed the pink paper bag over to him.
"Huh?" he said looking at the bag strangely.
"It's for you, thanks for your help with the rumors"
"Oh that, it was nothing. You're an artist signed under us. I was just doing my job."
"I still have to thank you for that. Please take this" she said.
"Okay, but I'm taking it as a gift between friends. Thanks for this."
"Your welcome"
"I should get going, see you later"
"Yeah, bye"

A few minutes later, the artist director Meng Ling walked back into her office and returned to her seat. she held a notepad in her hands.
"thanks for coming in Qiao Qiao. It's been a while. How have you been?"
"good and you?"
"never been better. Since we are done with the pleasantries, let's get started. We still haven't figured out, why the blogger made that post but I don't think we should pursue that.
"Since it's to our advance, we should make good use of it. I have arranged for you to take part in a few television shows. I'll send you a list of the questions and you can go through it.
"sadly I have some bad news. Though the rumors were refuted, a lot of people aren't convinced. This is why we decided to put you in a view variety shows.
"It will help you get some good press and also showcase your talent. what do you think, are you up for that?"
