Chapter 146 "Social Engagement"
He subconsciously wanted to help Gu Min refuse, but before he could open his mouth, Gu Min had already said, "I'm so sorry, senior. It's my honor to have dinner with a big star like you, and I'm looking forward to it. But I have a photo shoot scheduled. You are a more experienced artist, so you have more invitations from magazines. I just debuted, so there are not many opportunities like this. So it would be bad to break the appointment easily. So I'm so sorry, senior. When I'm done, I will contact you and take the initiative to invite you to dinner. What do you think?"
This paragraph not only explains the difficulty of not being able to go, but also praises the other party to the sky, and finally expresses his attitude of taking the initiative to invite. It can be said that this answer is flawless and polite. If Qian Duojin had not known that the schedule had been adjusted to tomorrow for this recording, he would have believed it.
However, Xiao Yaohui has been in this circle for several years. How could he not see that Gu Min was deliberately avoiding him? His stubbornness suddenly emerged.
"It's okay. I really want to get to know Mr. Minran. After all, he's the new monster who dominated the hot searches for several days. I also want to make some friends with him. You go ahead and do your work. When you're done, we can have dinner together."
Gu Min didn't expect that this person would be so difficult to deal with. He had just had a lot of ill will towards him. When the two of them were having dinner alone, he didn't believe that the other party would not trip him up or say something sarcastic.
But he still wanted to struggle, "Senior, I was on the trending search partly because of luck. Your drama is really suitable for all ages and has a wide audience, so how can I let you wait for me? I don’t know what time it will end here, so I won’t waste your time. We can make an appointment then."
Xiao Yaohui smiled and said calmly, "It's okay, I can wait for you." There was no room for him to refuse in his tone. After all, he had been in the entertainment industry for so many years, and few people dared to refuse him like this. This made him want to teach this ignorant kid a lesson even more.
Yueyue, who was being pulled away by her mother, heard the voice behind her and whispered to her mother, "Mom, why did Brother Yaohui insist on inviting Brother Gumin to dinner?"
After all, the mother is an adult, and the child does not understand the tension. As a bystander, she can of course see that Xiao Yaohui seems to want to embarrass this young man who has just debuted, but she does not know how to explain to the child, so she can only say, "Maybe Mr. Xiao wants to ask your brother Gu Min something. Let's go. And if you see Mr. Xiao in the future, don't call him brother first, so as not to make him unhappy. Got it?"
Yueyue seemed to understand but still nodded obediently.
Meanwhile, Qian Duojin was very dissatisfied with Xiao Yaohui's tough attitude. He was thinking that it was time for him to take action. After all, he was also an artist of the company, and his own Xiao Min was also an artist of the company. What right did he have to order their family members around?
Qian Duojin, who was always protective of his people, thought for a moment, then quickly stepped forward and pulled Gu Min behind him. He did not look panicked at all, and said, "Mr. Xiao, our artist has important schedules and needs to complete practice later. Why don't you guys have dinner together another day and forget about it today? Thank you for your kindness."
Xiao Yaohui was a little unhappy when he heard the man next to him interrupting. What did he have to do with a manager like him talking to an artist? But he was a person who managed his facial expressions very well, and there was no sign of anger on his face. Otherwise, he would not have won so much favor in front of the public. He smiled and said, "I understand. I just want to have a late-night gathering with your artist, drink some wine, and chat. You make me sound like a monster."
Qian Duojin complained in his heart: Isn't it you? Whose good man didn't let the other party leave after get off work, and insisted on inviting him to dinner? And he also wanted to drink?! Does he know that his artist is still underage?
He thought so in his heart, but he couldn't say it so bluntly. After all, he still had to save face. Of course, he didn't give a good face, and his tone was much stiffer. "No, but Mr. Xiao, our Xiao Min has a schedule tomorrow, and he is underage, so there is no need to drink. I wish you a good night. We are in a hurry, so we will leave first."
After saying that, he didn't care about the other person's expression and pulled Gu Min away. Xiao Yaohui didn't seem to expect that this agent was so bold as to pull someone away without any hesitation. It was not until the two of them walked out of the recording studio that he reacted. His face was gloomy, but he was helpless.
He secretly took a deep breath and whispered to his agent, "Tell Sister Hong about his existence. I'm sure Sister Hong will like this type of person. Find a way to make an appointment with him. I want him to experience it. In this circle, socializing is something you can't just avoid if you want to."
"Yes!"

On the other side, Gu Min, who was being dragged out, looked at Qian Duojin who was furious. He was apparently a little depressed just now, but when he saw this brother looking so angry, he couldn't help but laugh.
"Okay, Brother Qian, I've already come out, so don't be angry. You succeeded in getting me out!"
Qian Duojin frowned, "I knew that you can't judge a person by his appearance. This person is very cunning. I don't know why he would cooperate with you this time. It's really annoying. There is still one rehearsal, one official live broadcast, and two meetings! I feel that this person will not give up. No, I have to go back and ask the company to assign you a taller and braver bodyguard."
Gu Min felt a little warm in his heart. It was really nice to feel protected. "Thank you, Brother Qian."
Qian Duojin thought about it, and then said worriedly, "Xiao Min, you must remember, as long as it's not given to you by me, no matter who gives it to you, you must not drink it for the time being. You are a singer, you must protect your voice. In addition, as long as you are on a schedule, I will follow you closely, so if there is anything that you can't handle well, you must tell me in time, understand? I promised my uncle, aunt and Qingnian that I will take good care of you."
"I know bro. I'll be careful."
Facts have proved that sometimes the tricks of the entertainment industry are unavoidable. During the first overall rehearsal of the evening party, Gu Min, Xiao Yaohui, and Yue Yue stood on the stage to familiarize themselves with the movement and arrangement of the song. During the rehearsal, Gu Min unexpectedly discovered that there was a woman in elegant and luxurious clothes and sunglasses in the audience. As he rehearsed, she kept looking at him, as if she was looking at a prey...
That look made him shudder...
Who is this person and what exactly is he trying to do?
