C3 What Did You Just Call Me?

Liang Han caught the teasing and provocation in his tone, and her temper flared. She deliberately moved closer to Anqi but feigned surprise as she looked at Qisheng.

"Are you really willing to give me a job opportunity? I really have to thank you for that."

Without waiting for Qisheng to respond, she quickly turned to Anqi. "And thanks to you, Anqi, for having such great taste in finding a husband like Director Gu. Just a flick of his finger, and he's helped me out so much!"

Her tone was exaggerated, making it seem like she was genuinely grateful to the two in front of her. But from Qisheng's perspective, he could clearly see the sly glint in her eyes, like a little fox playing tricks.

Anqi had been on high alert since Qisheng first spoke. She knew how indifferent he usually was, so his sudden offer to help was surprising. Could he be interested in Liang Han's charms?

With that thought, she quickly spoke up. "Qisheng, your company handles big projects and usually requires well-known actresses. Liang Han is just an unknown model. How could she possibly work there? Let me help her find something more suitable."

She finished her sentence and, while Qisheng wasn't looking, shot Liang Han a warning glare.

Liang Han knew exactly what Anqi was thinking, but her purpose today was to warn Qisheng not to mess with her anymore. If he did, she had plenty of ways to make his life difficult, like ruining his date right now.

"Fame isn't important. The Gu company has plenty of that," Qisheng leaned back slightly in his chair, a hint of amusement in his eyes as he looked at Liang Han. "But the Gu company doesn't keep people around for nothing. If you really want to work for me, Miss Liang, you should tell me what sets you apart from other models."

Liang Han realized Qisheng was just toying with her, but with Anqi right behind her, she couldn't say much. After a brief pause, she leaned forward, meeting Qisheng's gaze with a smirk. "I'm married. Does that count as something special?"

Without waiting for Qisheng's response, Liang Han turned and left with her tray.

Once out of the rooftop restaurant, Liang Han removed her server badge from her chest and tossed the tray aside, heading straight for the locker room.

The manager, seeing this, quickly stopped her with a frown. "What are you doing? It's not the end of your shift yet."

"I quit."

"Quitting?"

The manager's face turned sour. "You agreed to work here for a week, and it hasn't been that long—"

"Sorry, boss. I only took this job to meet someone special, and now that I've found him, I won't be sticking around."

Liang Han flashed a sweet smile and made a playful face at the stunned manager before humming a tune and heading to the locker room.

Since everyone was busy at this hour, the locker room was empty. Liang Han took off her server uniform and was about to slip into the dress she wore when she arrived. Just as she was pulling it on and hadn't zipped up the back, she heard the door close behind her. Startled, she was about to turn around when someone suddenly rushed up and pinned her against the lockers.

Qisheng's voice was a mix of lazy charm and allure. "Fishing for someone, huh?"

Oh no! He heard that!
