Su Bei’s current status was deteriorating day by day. Perhaps in a month or two, she would get a good opportunity and soar to the heavens in a single step. She would surpass Su Bei.

The entertainment industry was just that shallow. Other than the top international superstars, no one could stay at the top for long. Without any works or exposure, an artist would quickly become a passerby.

The waiter was collecting the red wine that Su Bei had left behind. He kept it carefully, afraid that he would bump it or spill a drop.

Although Su Bei didn’t care about the red wine, it didn’t mean that the waiter didn’t care! What if Su Bei asked for it again?

Song Yao casually reached out to take the red wine, wanting to see what brand it was.

The waiter was so anxious that he was about to cry. “Miss, you can’t touch this.”

“What’s wrong with touching it? I won’t break it.” Song Yao just wanted to take a look.

“But Miss, this red wine is really expensive. If you spill it, I really won’t be able to afford the compensation,” the waiter said anxiously. He reached out his hand but didn’t dare to snatch it away as he was afraid that he would accidentally make a mistake.

Song Yao did not think much of it. She looked at the label and casually read: “Routier? What brand is this? I’ve never heard of it.”

Without waiting for the waiter to reply, Li Qiao’er quickly and carefully snatched it over. She placed it in the waiter’s hands. “I’m sorry. Please put it away quickly.”

“Thank you, thank you.” Only then did the waiter feel as if the heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulders. He hurriedly took away the expensive bottle of red wine, which he might not be able to afford even with his lifetime’s worth of money.

“What are you doing?” Song Yao didn’t understand Li Qiao’er’s actions.

Li Qiao’er said, “Do you know what kind of wine you just touched? It’s a special brew from Routier from the year 1982! I heard that it costs hundreds of thousands of US dollars a bottle. I saw it in a magazine last time. If it really spilled, do you think we could afford it?”

She was also very shocked, but she was sure that she hadn’t seen it wrongly. When she saw it in a magazine before this, she had paid extra attention to it. When she entered this industry, she deliberately studied all kinds of brands so that she could bring them up in social situations.

“Really?” Song Yao was very surprised, but she knew that Li Qiao’er wouldn’t lie to her and also acknowledged her ability to recognize brands.

Li Qiao’er said, “Of course. You should be careful next time. We’ve just entered the industry. Don’t ruin your life because of this.”

Song Yao was flabbergasted. The waiter’s nervous and surprised actions seemed to prove it as well.

How could such a small bottle of red wine cost so much money?

It was worth a few million dollars in S Country’s currency. It was enough to buy a house in a first-tier city!

Was this expensive bottle of red wine from the hotel or bought by Su Bei herself?

The two of them were silent for a moment. Only then did they feel that the distance between Su Bei and themselves was too big. The incomparable gap existed like a chasm that could not be crossed.

When she thought about how she had asked Su Bei if he wanted to drink her red wine, Song Yao simply wanted to find a hole to hide in.

…

The top floor of the seven-star hotel was too luxurious. Su Bei specially took a photo and sent it to Lu Heting.

“Are you used to staying there?” Lu Heting asked.

“Yes, it’s very comfortable.” Su Bei took a video for him to see. “I don’t know what’s going on. I usually don’t sleep well when I’m staying in a hotel, but tonight, I feel very at ease in this room.”
