Rebirth Of The Villainess: Young Master Lu's Wicked Wife-Chapter 617 First Love (3)
When they arrived at one of Bluemedia's conference rooms, Xiao Rufeng was surprised to see Huo Yunxi waiting for them. She turned to look at Zhang Ling, but her friend only smiled and gestured for her to take a seat.
Huo Yuxin gave them a warm smile. She was as beautiful as a blooming flower in early spring. Compared to Ye Mingyu's false facade, looking at Huo Yuxin was refreshing to one's eyes.
"Good afternoon, Miss Huo. President Su is still on her indefinite leave, but she left a couple of scripts for you to consider." Zhang Ling then handed three folders to the actress.
"Is it true then that she's on maternity leave? It has been months since the public saw her." Huo Yuxin tried to probe. She had seen how well everyone in Bluemedia continued to function without Su Xiaofei, and although the previous president, Yun Qingrong, was around, the decision-maker was still her daughter.
Zhang Ling only smiled. "If these scripts aren't to your liking, President Su suggested for you to guest on talk shows to inform the public that you are back."
The scripts she just handed were for other films that Ye Mingyu was about to audition for as well. It wouldn't take long before Ye Mingyu found out that Han Yize was losing his interest in her because his first love had just returned to the country.
Huo Yuxin didn't ask for more, realizing that the president's assistant was tight lipped when it came to Su Xiaofei's whereabouts and condition. It made Huo Yuxin more curious about Su Xiaofei who managed to create a huge ripple in the entertainment industry since taking over the management of Bluemedia.
Huo Yuxin had heard about Su Xiaofei. There were various rumors revolving around her that involved Mo Yuchen, her ex-fiancé, and her childhood friend, Lu Qingfeng, who eventually became her husband.
There wasn't much information available about Lu Qingfeng as he had never entertained any interviews that involved his private affairs. Unlike Mo Yuchen, who was occasionally seen in several articles and on entertainment news, Lu Qingfeng's name barely appeared even in the finance and business section.
Huo Yuxin thought that the couple was quite good at keeping their affairs away from the public eye. Even well-known paparazzis were afraid to cross the line and offend Lu Qingfeng. Was this why no matter how many rumors sprouted about Su Xiaofei, none of them were able to leave a mark on her name?
"I see. I guess that's fine with me. I trust President Su's judgment." She paused before taking the three folders and handed them over to her private assistant, who was standing behind her.
"However, would I be able to meet her personally once she's back to work?"
The only reason she agreed to sign under Bluemedia was Su Xiaofei's promise to grant her that one wish that would free her from guilt and despair. As long as Su Xiaofei could ruin Han Yize, she didn't care if that woman took advantage of her.
"Why, of course, Miss Huo. President Su is just currently occupied with personal matters. I'm sure meeting you will be one of her priorities once she returns to her office." Zhang Ling assured her.
"Then that's reassuring to hear. It's been more than a week since I arrived in the country, but I haven't met my new manager yet, so I look forward to meeting her soon."
Once Huo Yuxin left with her assistant, Xiao Rufeng took a seat and sighed. No one in Bluemedia knew about Su Xiaofei's real condition aside from them and Yun Qingrong. However, she had to admit that Su Xiaofei had made things easier for them even when she wasn't around.
"Such a long sigh, Rufeng. You haven't even started working on your new project." Zhang Ling teased her. "You still have time to spend with Mr. Yan before you start."
Xiao Rufeng blushed at that. She still wasn't comfortable discussing her relationship with Yan Xiuchen, even with her friends.
"He's still on a business trip, but he will be home tonight." She murmured with a slight blush on her cheeks.
"Then you still have enough time to prepare for his arrival." Zhang Ling continued to tease her. "Have you formally introduced him to your father?"
The actress remembered the first time she brought Yan Xiuchen home with her, but Xiao Yunyao had effectively ruined their night.
"I did, but I had a nasty fight with Yunyao. Dad is curious whether we are seriously dating and intending to get married, but I don't want to rush Xiuchen into it. I'm not ready to settle down either." She confessed to Zhang Ling.
Zhang Ling paused whatever she was doing and took a seat across from Xiao Rufeng.
"Did you discuss this with Mr. Yan? What did he say then?"
She was curious about how Yan Xiuchen was treating her friend. Zhang Ling knew that Xiao Rufeng's relationship with Yan Xiuchen had bloomed unexpectedly due to Xiao Yunyao's scheming, but a part of her wanted to make sure that the man wasn't one of those possessive men who would try to tie down her friend. There were countless horrendous stories of young actresses being abused by their wealthy lovers and Zhang Ling didn't want her friend to be one of those stories.
However, she was relieved to hear that Xiao Rufeng didn't want to settle down yet. President Su still had so many plans for Xiao Rufeng's career, and it would be a pity if Xiao Rufeng made the most common mistake many rising stars committed in the past. And while Su Xiaofei didn't forbid any of the talents of Bluemedia from dating, she made sure to be aware of whom they were involved to as a precaution.
"He said that there's no need for us to rush into marriage. He's willing to wait until we're both ready to commit. Xiuchen understands that there are still things I want to accomplish before we start a family."
