Chapter 4 - Chapter 4

Caiyi/ Zhihua 

Caiyi, herself thought that Lady Bai's life need not be difficult to handle compared to hers. Zhihua was wealthy, famous, lived in a palace-like mansion, and had thousands of servants working for her, plus, she had a handsome guy staying together on the front page of popular magazines. Caiyi, of course, wished once again that she had her life and wouldn't care about anything or anyone trying to ruin her.

"Madam Bai, you have a fans-meet-and-greet in an hour."

"Ahhh, okay. Thank you."

The maid that came near to her didn't leave just like the last time, but when Caiyi was still confused about what was happening. This time though, she knew what she needed to do or how to act, and knew what she needed to accomplish.

"May I ask why still stand there?"

"Sorry, Madam. I was supposed to take you to the Zhunbei Room..."

"The what?-", I believe it's just like the celebrity preparation room.

"Zhunbei-?"

"Ohhhh ALRIGHT, LET'S HEAD THERE!"

The maid stood there confused. However, she is told to obey Zhihua's orders, therefore, the maid guides her into the right room where she has to get ready for the event. Caiyi thought that preparing for a specific bash was exhausting and that she could have just worn something out of the wardrobe as she believed that Zhihua, and she is indeed beautiful.

Inside the ZhunBei Room, everything was elegantly placed and cleaned which made it much more outstanding than any other rooms that she'd been in. Zhihua's home was a very massive one that Caiyi couldn't bear walking around the house which involved touring it. 

"Madam, please have a seat here."

"Thank you, Lady"

Although the makeup artist stood beside her in doubt about the behavior of this new Lady Bai Zhihua, she continued processing her work. 

Wow... She does her work thoroughly. How delightful. Imagine talking with these people when stressed must be a really nice experience. But I'm not even sure Zhihua does this. Is everyone acting so strangely because I'm being weird? 

"Madam Bai, how would you like to match the makeup with your outfit?"

"Do impress me with ye talent."

". . .", everyone in the room stayed in puzzlement continuously every time Caiyi/Zhihua spoke. 

"I'm trying this- this uhh, new acting skills from the Shakespeare plays. You never know when this might be useful.", Zhihua being seen as abnormal by those who had worked with her for years, Caiyi tried to cover up her odd motion.

As soon as they got Zhihua ready, they left the house and went to the location where Caiyi thought that she was only having an event with her fans. But it turned out Caiyi was also promoting the company where Zheng Xiang works. 

ZHIHUA! ZHIHUA! ZHIHUA! ZHIHUA! . . . 

The crowd went wild.

Caiyi/Zhihua made a worried face and a weird one at the same time. She politely asked her "bodyguard" what she needed to do, thus, he replied graciously too.

"One by one, please. I'll find myself unconscious if you guys are being like this.", spoke Caiyi/Zhihua. In the crowd, there was Zhihua/ Caiyi in the back. Of course, Caiyi/Zhihua didn't notice since it was an enormous one. 

There was also the fine man; the CEO of the company Caiyi had met the other day when she and Zhihua tried to figure out a way out of this madness. 

"Lady Bai."

"Hello there, uh- I don't mean to be careless but what was your name again?"

"Huixiu. Ren Huixiu. No worries."

Zhihua softly chuckled. 

"Everyone! Please! We have work to do. Maybe after we've finished our project, you all shall do what you all will be satisfied."

He's wealthy but scary, however, he's not like Mr. Wu; an ignorant betrayer. Zhengxiang would never help Lady Bai like he did just right now. She deserves a man like him and not Zhengxiang. I wonder why Zhihua loves him that much..., thought Caiyi/Zhihua.

San Er Yi ...

"Smile, Madam!"

Caiyi didn't believe she was in front of a camera advertising a company's product. She felt like she was dreaming as she'd never imagined herself or herself experiencing something like this. Throughout the work, she'd stared at Mr Ren who was having a small discussion with a couple of his employees which, of course, included Wu Zhengxiang. 

Caiyi/Zhihua spoke with Huixiu after she'd performed her role and not with Zhengxiang which left him lonely in the corner of a shooting room along with his colleagues. Zhengxiang felt bitter looking at his so-called girlfriend and his boss getting along with each other very well. What Zhihua and Huixiu talked about was nothing else but the product they were elevating, however, Zhengxiang on the other hand, who was never innocent, thought differently. Therefore, he went towards the two.

"Hi, Boss. Hello there, Xiao Hua ~!"

"Hey, Zhengxiang! You got the final one we're talking about, right?"

"Of course."

Caiyi/Zhihua made a funny face.

"Woah Woah! Xiaohua, you look amazing!"

"Appreciate the compliment, but I already know I am so thanks for reminding me. And what did I tell you about you calling me "Xiaohua"? hm?"

"Uh,-"

Huixiu almost laughed at this, though, he controlled himself and moved 3 steps backward.

"If you understand that, please excuse me. I have a duty to carry out."

Both men stood there silently. Just then, Mr Ren looked at Zhengxiang and told him to get back to work. Wu was so anxious and crossed, that he had a plan to make out with some girls in front of Zhihua. Little did he know Zhihua wouldn't react as it was Caiyi who managed her body.

The shoot was over and the famous celebrity was out once more. Although everything around there was wild, it had been calmed by no other than Zhihua/Caiyi. She needed attention from Caiyi/Zhihua because of not knowing anything about working at a bar. 

"Lady, thank you for this, but you know you mustn't cross the line?" 

"Um, sir, she's a friend of mine."

Everyone judged Zhihua/Caiyi from up and down.

"It's rude to look at someone like that."

"Sorry, Lady Bai."

"Everyone, I promise we'll have another meet-and-greet! Just not today!"

Everybody inside the building who were fans sighed in disappointment, however, they were hopeful that they'd have a chance to get a signature from her sooner or later and that they got to meet her in person and not on some screen.

"She and I need to talk alone. Thus, mind waiting for me in the car?" said Caiyi/Zhihua to her chauffeur.

As everyone inside that building was leaving, Zhihua/Caiyi stared continuously at Zhengxiang feeling irritated and abandoned. On the one hand, Caiyi regretted not asking for Mr Ren's contact number.
