Entertainment mogul: Starting his business with the internet

Chapter 16 Apologize to her
Liu Shishi was so angry she felt like her lungs were about to explode. She thought resentfully, "This old woman not only provoked me, but she even asked me how I knew Song Ci didn't like older women."

I've known your boss since I was a toddler, how could I not know his preferences? Song Yiyi, she should probably like someone like me, right?
Fat Round: The boss is very young, he looks like a student. When I got off the elevator this morning, he was right next to me. I was wondering, does the company have such a handsome young man?

Fat Round: Ice Cream Sister, you're no good. Your looks don't match the boss's. I think he and Lion KK would be a better match.

When Jiang Yuanyuan said that she was a perfect match for Song Ci, Miss Liu was overjoyed and secretly gave Jiang Yuanyuan a thumbs up. The eyes of the masses are discerning!

My favorite food is ice cream: What kind of person can a blonde girl who hasn't even fully developed be paired with?

My favorite food is ice cream: There are no ugly women, only lazy women. When I dress up and put on makeup, I'm way better than those naive young girls. Besides, I have a great figure, that's an advantage!

Liu Shishi became increasingly annoyed and furious as she read the message. She felt mocked and was about to retort that she loved ice cream, but before she could even type, several more messages flooded the screen.

Miss Liu pouted and said angrily, "Hmph, I'll let you off this time!"

Full of firepower: Can you stop being such a fangirl? Don't you know your own worth? Unless the boss is blind, why would he be interested in you? The company's female directors are all top-tier university graduates, full of youthful energy—aren't they all better than you?
Full of firepower: Let's talk about something useful. Who knows if there will be any changes in the company this time the boss comes? Share any news you have.

Heartbroken Prodigal: I heard that President Song and President Wang are discussing the company's first self-produced drama. The film and television department will soon have work to do.
Full of firepower: Don't just listen to rumors, do you have any reliable information?
The heartbroken prodigal son: This morning, Mr. Wang had the office print out the script and took it to see Mr. Song.

Full of firepower: That's probably it. After waiting for months, our film and television department can finally show its skills.

Maruko: When will the company sign a few celebrities?
Winter Sunshine: Breaking news! Mr. Wang has come out of the chairman's office. He seems to be in a good mood. Anyone who needs to see Mr. Wang can go now.
Maruko: Quick, check the work group chat! There's a notice that there's a meeting at 2 PM. All department directors and team leaders need to give their reports.
The directors' meetings were obviously none of Liu Shishi's business. She saw someone say that Wang Jing had come out of Song Ci's office, and guessed that there should be no one in Song Ci's office at this time. Her desire to go there and have fun rekindled.

"President Jiang wants to see me, so I need to go to her office." Liu Shishi made up an excuse to explain to those around her, and then got up from her seat.

The offices of Tengda Culture's leaders are located at the innermost part of the company, with the outer layer being the workstation area. Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, Liu Shishi walked briskly and arrived at the innermost office in just a few steps.

Looking around to make sure no one was paying attention, he swiftly entered Song Ci's office, opening and closing the door in one smooth motion.

After Wang Jing left, Song Ci overcame his drowsiness and started typing on the company computer. He was publishing his latest novel, "Those Things of the Ming Dynasty," on Tianya Community. The content was very exciting, and after just the second chapter, many book fans and netizens were already urging him to update online.

Liu Shishi crossed her arms and paced around the office a few times, looking left and right. "The chairman's office is really something else, so impressive!"

Hearing his office door open, Song Ci didn't even look away from the screen; he knew it was Liu Shishi. No one in the entire company would dare to barge into his chairman's office without knocking.

Seeing that Song Ci ignored her and was focused on typing, Liu Shishi didn't disturb him. She walked to the desk, sat down, rested her chin on her hands, and sat quietly, staring intently at Song Ci. Time seemed to stand still at that moment. Not hearing any movement, Song Ci stopped what he was doing, tilted his head to look at the pretty face so close to his, and said with a smile, "My place is just a bit big, with nothing but furniture. I might not come here often in the future. Why are you sitting here so quietly? It's rare to see you so quiet."

Liu Shishi's beautiful eyes sparkled, her lips parted slightly, and she spoke in a gentle tone, tentatively probing with a sudden inspiration: "Yiyi, I'm admiring your stunning good looks. I never thought so before, but I just realized that you look really handsome when you're focused on typing. It's even made this young lady a little smitten."

Song Ci glanced at Liu Shishi, thinking to herself, "This is probably the first day you've met me. Every neighbor and relative I've known since I was a child has praised my good looks." She said irritably, "Thank you for the compliment. Enjoy your time. I still have to write."

Liu Shishi was somewhat exasperated. That's not how it's written in the books. Why is it so difficult for her to break through that barrier? Does this scoundrel really like older women? Her childhood sweetheart is a bit difficult to deal with. She could only secretly encourage herself and try harder.

Recalling the messages in the group chat, Liu Shishi, filled with curiosity, asked, "Yiyi, is the company's first TV series about to be filmed?"

Song Ci raised an eyebrow. "You want to know?"

Miss Liu nodded repeatedly, "Yes, I want to know!"

Seeing the expectant look in her eyes, Song Ci chuckled and said, "Well, that's a secret!"

Liu Shishi's eyebrows shot up and her almond-shaped eyes widened. "Ah, Song Ci, are you going to tell me or not?"

For some reason, seeing Liu Shishi's annoyed expression, Song Ci really wanted to tease her. So he deliberately coughed lightly, patted the table, and said seriously, "Liu Shishi, this is a company. You're prying into company secrets. Please know your place. Also, you should use your job title when you're working!"

Liu Shishi was taken aback by Song Ci's sudden change of attitude, and her eyes immediately reddened. She felt a pang of sadness in her heart. This was the first time Song Ci had ever been so distant with her. Feeling extremely disappointed, she said, "I know, I'm sorry, I misspoke. It was President Song. I've bothered you."

Seeing Miss Liu's distraught and tearful state, Song Ci was speechless. She realized she'd gone too far. "No wonder she's called Liu the Dumbass," she thought. "She usually seems so clever, but she's so easily fooled. Was it because I acted too well?"
He couldn't stand seeing Liu Shishi cry. From childhood to adulthood, whenever Miss Liu cried, he would always humble himself and be completely under her control. He would quickly coax her, "Shishi, don't cry, I was just joking!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Shishi remained silent, only staring blankly at Song Ci with her moist eyes.

It felt familiar. In the past, whenever Song Ci offended Liu Shishi, Miss Liu would stare at him blankly, waiting for Song Ci to apologize.

She had been coaxing her childhood sweetheart for over ten years, and now she was crying because of her. What could she do? Song Ci spoke softly and sincerely, "I'm sorry, Shishi, it was my fault. Please forgive me!"
