Chapter 232 You're Not Some Big Shot [2nd Update]

"It seems like you TV hosts all have a pretty high opinion of yourselves," Ge Dongxu noted, having seen Ye Qianqian and others glance their way. He didn't take it to heart, though; instead, he smiled at Wu Shiyi and teased her. Stay tuned with My Virtual Library Empire

"Of course, becoming a host isn't easy; we've come out on top from a massive crowd. I won't speak for the men—since talent seems more crucial for them—but look at the women, each one curvy, sexy, and beautiful as flowers. Just look at me!" Wu Shiyi said with proud confidence, puffing up her chest once more.

Now Ge Dongxu understood. Female TV hosts were different from other women; not only could they speak and engage well, but they also enjoyed showing off in front of others. So, he smiled as he appraised Wu Shiyi up and down, then nodded seriously, "Hmm, indeed not bad, definitely something to be proud of."

Speaking of which, perhaps because he'd gotten used to being intimate with Liu Jiayao these days, or maybe because Wu Shiyi's chest was thrust out so prominently that Ge Dongxu couldn't help but notice—he even took a few extra glances.

"You, Ge Dongxu, just how old are you this year to be flirting with your elder sister like this?" Wu Shiyi saw Ge Dongxu evaluating her and noticed his roving eyes, so she reached out to pinch him, her face forming a fierce expression.

"I was just stating the truth; well, if I stop talking, that should be fine, right?" Ge Dongxu said with a wry smile, then indeed sat up straight.

"Look at you all serious; alright, I was just joking. I'm a host; it's my fate to be scrutinized on stage, so I don't mind your comments!" Seeing Ge Dongxu sitting properly, Wu Shiyi felt a bit unaccustomed and nudged him gently with her elbow as she spoke.

"From your expression, you seem rather helpless," Ge Dongxu had really wanted to enjoy some quiet, but since Wu Shiyi addressed him, he had to speak up again.

"Helpless? I'm just sour grapes. The day a lot of people scrutinize me will mean I've made it famous. But you know, making it in our line of work is really tough," Wu Shiyi sighed softly, her eyes revealing a hint of confusion.

"Not at all, with your figure, face, eloquence, and kind heart, a beauty like you will definitely become famous someday," Ge Dongxu responded, comforting her with a smile.

"Thanks! You do have good insight," Wu Shiyi nodded in agreement.

"Can't you be a bit more modest? Modesty helps one to progress," Ge Dongxu watched as Wu Shiyi took it all in without any humility and couldn't help but feel exasperated.

"In our line of work, we need to fight and show confidence; if we're modest, then we're left with nothing," Wu Shiyi explained.

"Then why didn't you compete with Ye Qianqian when she switched positions with you? That was a great chance to build a good relationship with the director," Ge Dongxu asked, hearing her explanation.

"Being with you isn't so bad either! I can speak freely," a trace of sadness flickered through Wu Shiyi's eyes, but she quickly smiled again.

"Haha, in the end, you're still quite a humble woman—not as wild as your outfit would suggest," Ge Dongxu remarked, his gaze filled with admiration.

He preferred women like that!

Wu Shiyi, who had been jovial all along, suddenly fell silent, no longer talking to Ge Dongxu, just staring out the window in a daze.

After a while, Wu Shiyi suddenly turned to look at Ge Dongxu and asked, "Do you think I'm a bit foolish? Am I not cut out for this industry?"

"You were just telling me about the importance of confidently showing yourself, right? When you were with me just now, you seemed very confident. I think it's good to keep it up; you'll certainly become an outstanding host," Ge Dongxu said seriously.

"Stop it, I'm being serious here," Wu Shiyi said, raising her hand and lightly hitting Ge Dongxu.

"I am being serious," Ge Dongxu said, looking puzzled, for he had spoken earnestly.

"Stop it! You're not some big shot, so of course, I feel confident with you!" Wu Shiyi lightly hit him again and rolled her eyes.

"That's where your mindset is wrong. You need to treat everyone as equals! How can you look at people through colored glasses? Besides, even though I'm not a big shot, I'm definitely better than that Mr. Li!" Ge Dongxu said sternly.

"Annoying! When I'm serious, you just start messing around. Never mind, it's no use talking to you." Wu Shiyi rolled her eyes at Ge Dongxu, then propped her chin in her hands and gazed out the window, lost in thought.

Ge Dongxu couldn't help but feel a mix of amusement and frustration at the sight of Wu Shiyi pondering out the window.

Indeed, this woman also saw herself as someone who got the chance to fly first class only because of Liu Jiayao.

The plane soon began its descent, and Wu Shiyi finally snapped back to reality.

"Right, the capital is huge, and you're unfamiliar with it, so be careful," Wu Shiyi said in a low voice to Ge Dongxu as they returned to reality.

"Thanks, I will, and you be careful too. Call me if you need anything," Ge Dongxu said warmly, smiling.

"You wish, having a beautiful woman like me call you. You should call, but I might not answer," Wu Shiyi retorted, lifting her chin proudly.

Just then, the plane safely landed, and Ge Dongxu just smiled without replying.

At the airport, a large Cherokee with a military plate was parked containing two people; one was the eldest grandson of Elder Feng, Feng Chenqing, and the other was a middle-aged man around fifty, sitting in the passenger seat.

Despite his age, the middle-aged man was sturdy and robust, with bright, spirited eyes. He sat rigidly beside the driver, resembling a crouching tiger, exuding a fierce aura.

This man was none other than Elder Feng's younger son, Feng Guozhen, a division commander of a certain military group.

"Get off." Seeing the plane's staircase extend, Feng Guozhen said sternly, then pushed open the passenger door, got out of the car and stood straight as a rod in front of the vehicle. Meanwhile, Feng Chenqing, the younger one, involuntarily shrank his head due to the chilly wind.

One great advantage of first class was having the priority to board and disembark from the plane without having to squeeze through crowds.

Ge Dongxu helped Wu Shiyi collect her luggage, then asked her to walk ahead with Wu Longcai and others while he followed behind.

Wu Shiyi, out of respect for Shangguan Yunfeng, didn't talk much to Ge Dongxu anymore. She just took her luggage, whispered thanks, and urged him to be careful before hurrying after Wu Longcai and his group.

"Shiyi, I saw you exchanging contact information with that Dongxu. You're not thinking of hooking him, are you? That's really tasteless," Ye Qianqian whispered teasingly to Wu Shiyi as they walked along the corridor.

"Hm, Shiyi, you're one of us at the station too. You should be mindful of the influence your friends have," Shangguan Yunfeng looked back at Wu Shiyi, expressing some dissatisfaction.

Shangguan Yunfeng preferred curvaceous and voluptuous women, and he was somewhat interested in Wu Shiyi, the newcomer. Although she dressed in a modern and open manner, her actions were rather conservative. Shangguan Yunfeng's several hints hadn't prompted Wu Shiyi to throw herself into his arms, so recently he had started to purposely make things difficult for her, letting her understand the severity of her situation.

ps: I recommend the new author Long Lou's book "Eternal Chronicles." I've read the beginning, and it seems decent. Writing as a newcomer isn't easy, and those who like fantasy might want to check it out. If you like it, please support it.
