Chapter 254 - Too Late For Regrets (1)
She shook her head and sighed to herself. She must\'ve been confused with a figment of her imagination. There was no way that woman would be here to see her. She supposed it was also because of their sudden meeting earlier that her mind was tricking her now.
"Feifei!"
Su Xiaofei saw Xi Qian waving her hand, trying to get her attention, but it really wasn\'t needed as many people had been eyeing Lu Qingfeng, wondering if he was a celebrity or sorts because of his appearance.
"How was it? Do you think you can pass the exam?" Xi Qian asked her as soon as she hooked her arm with Su Xiaofei.
Su Xiaofei smiled, with Xi Qian\'s help, she was able to remember the principles of their lessons while Lu Qingfeng\'s hard as hell\'s questionnaires before had made it easy for her to answer the math questions on her paper.
"It\'s not that difficult, but I would rather wait and see the results later." She admitted.
"The hardest part is over. We just need to wait and see if Feifei will be admitted here." Lu Qingfeng nodded. "Hungry?" He asked Su Xiaofei.
The moment he asked that question, Su Xiaofei\'s eyes immediately lit up. It had only been a few hours since the moment she sat in that room, taking that exam, but she felt like time was passing by too slowly for her liking.
"Yes, please! I know a place where we can eat!" She clapped her hands together, unconsciously dragging Xi Qian closer to her.
Su Xiaofei spent the rest of her afternoon with them, before her attention was taken when she received a report from Zhang Lan that Tang Liyan was requesting to meet her before she would sign a contract with Bluemedia.
"What\'s wrong Feifei?" Xi Qian asked when she noticed that Su Xiaofei looked preoccupied and hadn\'t finished her dessert.
"Nothing serious. It\'s work related." Su Xiaofei replied when she snapped out from her daze.
"How could you say that? Feifei, you shouldn\'t cultivate this irresponsible trait, else you would have a hard time adjusting once you start working full time at Bluemedia." Xi Qian retorted.
"Xi Qian is right, Feifei. While you don\'t need to micromanage everything, you still need to recognize your priorities." Lu Qing backed Xi Qian\'s words, which made Su Xiaofei look at them curiously.
Lu Qingfeng agreeing with Xi Qian? Was she hearing things, or did the two finally manage to settle their differences and grow up?
"Qian, aren\'t you supposed to take my side than help Xiao Feng turn me into a working zombie?" She laughed, clearly teasing her best friend.
Xi Qian looked away and huffed. It would still take some time before she gets used to being Lu Qingfeng\'s friend, but it was enough that this little tyrant was willing to compromise with her now, unlike before.
"I\'ll drop you off at Bluemedia then." Lu Qingfeng decided.
"Okay. You better make sure to send Xi Qian home. I know she\'s been trying to find a new part-time job lately, although I specifically told her that she didn\'t need to worry about her rent at all." Su Xiaofei easily agreed with him, while giving Xi Qian a knowing look.
"You don\'t understand, Feifei. I just don\'t want to be a freeloader to you and Aunty Qing." Her best friend frowned. Xi Qian didn\'t think that Su Xiaofei would be able to discover her \'discreet\' job hunting.
"You are wasting your time worrying about how others perceive you, Qian. Mama and I understand your predicament and are willingly extending our help. Whether we choose to make the wrong decision or not, it totally depends on you."
"I suppose you are right." Xi Qian replied after considering what Su Xiaofei just said. Although she received a huge sum of money from the sale of her home, she still needed to be wary of her expenses.
Su Xiaofei then replied to Zhang Lan\'s message, asking her to set a meeting with her and Tang Liyan, and that she expected to meet the \'has been actress\' in an hour.
Since the university was near Bluemedia in Guangshang, Su Xiaofei arrived a little earlier than expected. Once she bid goodbye to her friends, she took the VIP elevator that led to her mother\'s office.
While waiting for Tang Liyan\'s arrival, the Zhang siblings prepared the private conference room near Yun Qingrong\'s office. While doing so, Su Xiaofei took the time to review the contract she was about to present to her second talent after securing Qin Muyao.
The actress came in a hurry and looked a little dazed when she found a young woman waiting for her instead of the president of Bluemedia. However, it seemed that Tang Liyan was different from the rest because she didn\'t use Su Xiaofei\'s age to question her motives.
"Miss Tang, it\'s nice to meet you. I\'m Su Xiaofei." Su Xiaofei stood up and extended a hand towards the older woman for a handshake.
Tang Liyan extended her right hand and gave her a firm shake.
"So you are to be my manager now?" She asked as soon as she had taken a seat across from Su Xiaofei. "But why are you helping me?"
Su Xiaofei smiled at Tang Liyan. In her memory, Bai Qingyue and Tang Liyan had started their careers at the same time.. Like her birth mother, Tang Liyan\'s name had become popular until she gave up her career when she got married, saying that she wanted to focus on raising her children from then on.
