Liang Shuang realized she couldn't take advantage of this offer anymore. She tried out the last lipstick she had, took a picture with her phone, snorted, and walked out haughtily.

By taking advantage of deals at various cosmetic stores, Liang Shuang has successfully cultivated her persona as a beauty blogger.

Gradually, I got to know many industry peers. On this day, Lily, a well-known beauty influencer, hosted a party and invited many beauty bloggers, including Liang Shuang, who has recently gained some fame.

Liang Shuang was quite interested in interacting with other beauty bloggers up close and readily agreed.

At 8 p.m., Liang Shuang arrived at the party venue on time, where it was already quite lively.

The men were dressed in suits and ties, and the women were dressed in beautiful clothes. It was called a party, but it was more like a gathering of online celebrities. All kinds of online celebrities and bloggers were busy chatting with people they knew, taking photos, and live streaming to their fans. The atmosphere was great.

Liang Shuang couldn't resist the trend and took out her phone to take a selfie.

"Hello everyone, I'm Chloe..."

After filming, she posted the video on Weibo, which immediately garnered many comments and likes, making Liang Shuang even happier.

After wandering around the venue, Liang Shuang found Lilya, the party organizer. Although the two had communicated online, it was only briefly, and they had never met in person.

Liang Shuang greeted, "Hello, Lilya!"

Lilia looked at her with a puzzled expression, feeling that the face looked familiar, but after thinking for a while, she couldn't recognize her.

"Hello, you are..."

Liang Shuang didn't mind and introduced herself, "I'm Liang Shuang!"

Seeing that Lilia still didn't understand, she took the initiative to say, "It's Chloe, you invited me here on Weibo!"

Lilia feigned a sudden realization: "Oh, I remember now, Chloe."

Liang Shuang was delighted: "You remembered! I've been following you for a long time. We've chatted on Weibo, and I especially love your beauty videos!"

"Really?" Looking at the enthusiastic Liang Shuang, although she still didn't recognize her and didn't know who Chloe was, Lilia still greeted her politely and warmly according to her usual persona: "Hello Chloe, I've been following you for a long time, your Weibo is also very good!"

Liang Shuang was pleasantly surprised: "Really?"

Of course it was fake, but looking at the energetic Chloe in front of her, Lilia could only deal with it.

Just then, Lilia suddenly broke free from Liang Shuang with a look of surprise and stepped forward to greet him.

"Mr. Zhao, you are here."

Li Mu nodded and smiled, "Lilia, thank you for your invitation."

Lilia said happily, "You're too kind. It's an honor for me to have Mr. Zhao come all this way. I should be thanking Mr. Zhao for his patronage."

Li Mu chuckled and said, "Then I won't stand on ceremony. The company is newly established and needs a lot of staff. I heard that many online celebrities and livestreamers will be attending today's gathering."

Lilia: "Yes, they are mostly people in the industry. It seems that President Zhao plans to sign a few."

Li Mu said, "We have this plan. As long as the conditions are good and there is potential, we will not refuse anyone."

At this moment, Liang Shuang also realized what was happening, saw Li Mu, and walked over with a look of surprise.

"Da Chuan, what brings you here?"

Lilia asked curiously, "Chloe, do you know her?"

Liang Shuang nodded vigorously: "Of course I know him."

Lilia said, "What a small world."

Seeing Liang Shuang's excited expression, Lilya decided not to be a third wheel and chatted with her for a few minutes.

"Mr. Zhao, I have guests to attend to. Please excuse me for a moment. I'll have Chloe look after you for me."

Li Mu said, "No need to trouble yourself, go ahead and get busy!"

As soon as Lilya left, Liang Shuang rushed over and grabbed Li Mu's arm.

"What are you doing here? Don't you own a game company?"

Li Mu glanced at her helplessly and said, "It's a game company, but recently the company plans to expand some businesses and enter the influencer live streaming industry. I heard that there was a party here, and all the attendees were influencers and streamers, so I came to see if there were any suitable people to sign and train."

Liang Shuang wanted to say that I was a perfect fit, since she had neither money nor resources! Unfortunately, her pride prevented her from saying that.

She wanted to make a name for herself on her own and didn't want people to think she relied on men. She wanted to prove that she was no less capable than anyone else.

After chatting for a few minutes, Li Mu said, "How about you? You're doing pretty well. It hasn't been that long, and you've already found your circle."

Liang Shuang smiled proudly: "Of course, if I'm going to do it, I'm going to do it to the best of my ability."

Li Mu said, "How about signing with our company?"

Liang Shuang hesitated for a moment and then shook her head: "I think I'll pass. I want to try things out on my own first."

Li Mu said, "That works too. There are many paths to Rome. I believe you will succeed in the future."

Liang Shuang didn't not want to sign with Li Mu's company, but she had other ideas. If she became an internet celebrity under Li Mu's company, the initiative would change, and it would be more difficult to achieve her goals.

She wanted to maintain a relatively independent stance, and didn't want to join the company and have something happen between them in the future, only to be accused of using her looks to advance her career.

After chatting for a while, Li Mu took a glass of red wine from the waiter and asked, "Would you like to take a stroll in the lobby and meet some more people?"

Liang Shuang asked, "Won't this take up your time?"

Li Mu laughed and said, "Won't it be a waste of time now?"

Liang Shuang blushed, looking unusually embarrassed.

Li Mu said, "Let's go, it's fine. I'm just a hands-off manager; other people handle the company's specific matters, so it won't cause any delays."

Liang Shuang smiled sweetly, picked up a glass of red wine, and followed.

To be honest, the two of them really did have a couple vibe when they walked together, and many people looked over.

"Who are these two? They look a bit unfamiliar."

"They look good together, are they new anchors? I've never seen them before."

"I know her. Her name is Liang Shuang. She's the woman who bravely intervened in the bus incident. She was trending on Weibo twice recently, but then she was heavily criticized!"

Someone realized what was happening and took a closer look.

"It really is."

Li Mu and Liang Shuang pretended not to hear and strolled around the hall with great interest. Knowing that Li Mu was looking for suitable online influencers, Liang Shuang felt a pang of jealousy looking at all the pretty girls in the hall and volunteered to help Li Mu find one.

By the end of the party, the two had actually found a few decent girls.

Seeing that it was getting late, Li Mu got his car and drove Liang Shuang home. After driving for a while, they passed a bar, and Liang Shuang suddenly said, "I want to have a drink. Can you have one with me?"

Li Mu said, "I didn't know you can't drink and drive."

Liang Shuang said with a look of disappointment, "Last time, you used the same interface. Now there are designated drivers everywhere, what's wrong with having a few drinks!"

After saying that, she looked at Li Mu with hopeful eyes, afraid that he would refuse.

Li Mu hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"All right!"

After parking the car, we entered the bar. Luckily, it was a quiet bar, quite comfortable and relaxing.

The two found a booth, ordered a few glasses of fruit wine, and slowly began to enjoy them.

Suddenly, Liang Shuang exclaimed, "Lilia updated her Weibo, and I'm in it!"

Li Mu smiled and said, "Is it really that exaggerated?"

Liang Shuang said, "You don't know, Lilya is the lipstick queen, with millions of Weibo followers. My appearance on her Weibo, that's traffic, you know?"

“I understand, it’s all about traffic!” Li Mu smiled as he looked at Liang Shuang, who seemed like a child.

"Have you gained any more followers?"

Liang Shuang said coquettishly, "How could it be so fast!"

The two chatted casually and drank a few glasses of fruit wine, becoming slightly tipsy, especially Liang Shuang, whose face was flushed.

Li Mu said, "It's getting late, let's go!"

Liang Shuang shook her head: "No, I haven't had enough fun yet. Dance with me."

As she spoke, she grabbed Li Mu's arm and shook it.

"Is it okay or not?!"

Li Mu said, "After we finish dancing, let's go back."

Liang Shuang nodded: "Okay!"

A dozen minutes later, Li Mu helped Liang Shuang, whose face was flushed, out of the bar.

"I'll take you back to school."

Liang Shuang glanced at him and suddenly said, "It's too late. The school must be closed at this time."

Li Mu looked at Liang Shuang, whose face was flushed, and said, "Then let's go to the hotel."

Liang Shuang gave a soft "hmm".

They had a designated driver take them to a nearby five-star hotel.

After booking the room and escorting Liang Shuang inside, he was about to say goodbye when she suddenly hugged him from behind.

His voice was low and trembling: "Don't go!"
