"I guessed,"
Chu Lingtian realized his emotions were a bit too volatile, so he grinned and said.
"Guessed? Your tone just now didn't sound like a guess!"
Liu Bingxue's beautiful eyes were fixed on Chu Lingtian, always feeling that this man was becoming more and more unfathomable.
Chu Lingtian retorted, "If I wasn't guessing, then what else could it be?"
Liu Bingxue was stunned by Chu Lingtian's counter-question and didn't know how to answer.
After a pause, Liu Bingxue changed the subject, "When we get to the company later, you'll take Qin Li and Guo Xiaoyan to the airport to await the arrival of that female celebrity."
"Okay."
Chu Lingtian nodded. Liu Bingxue had mentioned this to him before.
About ten minutes later, Chu Lingtian drove the car into the company's underground parking lot.
Seeing Liu Bingxue open the door and get out, Chu Lingtian asked, "Does your lower abdomen still hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt anymore..."
Liu Bingxue wanted to thank Chu Lingtian, but swallowed the words back.
Because she remembered the embarrassing scene from last night when Chu Lingtian had plucked her pubic hair. This scoundrel was truly lewd and went too far.
"If you still feel a lot of pain, tell me. I have another way to better relieve menstrual cramps."
Chu Lingtian said.
"What way?"
Liu Bingxue instinctively asked. After all, for most girls, their stomachs hurt a lot during their periods. That pain would torment them for at least several decades until they were old and menopausal.
Therefore, almost every girl wanted a way to stop having stomach pain during her period.
"Last night I massaged your lower abdomen, which had some effect in relieving pain, but it wasn't the best, though it was okay. When your period comes again next month, I'll massage your lower abdomen with my left hand and your big butt with my right hand. This will be even better."
Chu Lingtian grinned.
"Jerk!"
Liu Bingxue's beautiful face turned red with anger. She slammed the car door shut forcefully and stormed off.
"Hey, I'm telling the truth. Let's try it next month..."
Chu Lingtian rolled down the window and shouted after Liu Bingxue's retreating back.
"Go to hell!"
Liu Bingxue was so angry and embarrassed by Chu Lingtian that she even swore.
Seeing Liu Bingxue angry from his teasing, Chu Lingtian smiled. He found her rather cute.
At ten o'clock in the morning, Chu Lingtian was driving Liu Bingxue's car, with Qin Li in the passenger seat and Guo Xiaoyan in the back seat.
"When does the plane carrying that female celebrity arrive?"
Chu Lingtian asked.
Qin Li replied, "One o'clock in the afternoon."
"One o'clock in the afternoon? It's only ten in the morning, three hours left. Why are we going so early?"
Chu Lingtian was annoyed.
"We have to go early to wait for her, and it's all because of you. If you hadn't offended Goddess Su Fei's mother, causing our company's negotiation for endorsement cooperation with Goddess Su to fall through completely, we wouldn't have to go through so much trouble to invite another female celebrity to Dachang City."
Qin Li gave Chu Lingtian a glare.
Guo Xiaoyan couldn't help but ask curiously, "Secretary Qin, who is the female celebrity our company has invited to Dachang City again?"
"Ma Su."
Qin Li said.
"Ma Su?" Guo Xiaoyan frowned slightly and then said, "I heard she's very difficult to deal with..."
"More than just difficult to deal with. It's rumored that this Ma Su is notoriously promiscuous in the capital. Not only is she promiscuous, but she also brings many other female celebrities with her. For years, she has been introducing female celebrities to powerful men and taking referral fees."
Qin Li's tone was filled with disdain.
Chu Lingtian asked, "Since this Ma Su is not a good woman, why is the company still inviting her to endorse products?"
"Although Ma Su is not as famous as Goddess Su Fei, she has something that Goddess Su doesn't have, and that is her extensive network of connections, especially in a top-tier city like the capital where people of influence gather. It's not easy to have a strong network of connections, because many circles are fixed, and it's too difficult, even impossible, to integrate into them.
However, over the years, by introducing female celebrities to powerful men, and with both the female celebrities and the powerful men getting what they needed, Ma Su, as the intermediary, has accumulated a strong network of connections. Inviting Ma Su to replace Goddess Su as the new product spokesperson for our Baoxue Company was not solely Liu Zong's decision, but a collective decision made by the company's top executives."
Qin Li replied.
"I understand. The company wants to invite Ma Su to endorse new products and use her strong network of connections to promote the new products nationwide as quickly as possible. After all, if those female celebrities and powerful men Ma Su knows all use our company's new products, once it's publicized, it will definitely cause a sensation. Inviting Ma Su alone might produce the effect of inviting many influential figures to endorse."
Guo Xiaoyan said, looking enlightened.
"Exactly!"
Qin Li nodded.
"Inviting this Ma Su to endorse new products, I don't think it will have such an effect. Instead, it might put our company's new products in great sales crisis."
Chu Lingtian shook his head and said.
Qin Li frowned and asked, "Why?"
"Think about it, you all know that Ma Su is a promiscuous woman who acts as a pimp. Don't others know it? Can products she endorses still be trusted? Moreover, those female celebrities and wealthy, powerful, and influential figures must also dislike Ma Su. They only use her as an intermediary to facilitate their dealings and wouldn't unconditionally help her promote our company's new products."
Chu Lingtian retorted.
"Brother Chu, what you said... seems to have some truth to it."
Guo Xiaoyan pondered for a moment and said.
"What truth? Ms. Liu and so many senior executives discussed for many days before deciding on the candidate. They must have thought it through and couldn't be as superficial as you think."
Qin Li did not believe Chu Lingtian's words.
Chu Lingtian smiled and said, "There's no point in saying more. We'll just wait and see!"
At this moment, a Mercedes-Benz G-wagon appeared behind Chu Lingtian's car. The driver was Shao Hu.
"Sister Hu, do you have any instructions?"
Shao Hu asked as she drove and dialed a phone number. A man's respectful voice came from the other end of the phone.
"I've followed Chu Lingtian's car again. He seems to be going to the airport. I want you to cause trouble and further our relationship."
Shao Hu said with a gloomy expression.
