What Should I Do if My Best Friend Is a Green Tea? [Transmigrated Into a Book]

Ye Luoyi looked visibly distressed. She was faced with three options:

1. Stay true to herself and terminate her contract with E Brand.

2. Continue working with E Brand but switch to a different haute couture piece.

3. Continue working with E Brand but issue an apology.

At first glance, there seemed to be three choices, but in reality, option two was impossible due to time constraints. A week ago, Ye Luoyi had tried on E Brand's haute couture dresses. At the time, E Brand had presented her with five dresses to choose from, and she had selected their latest spring-summer design. The dress was then sent back to E Brand for adjustments to fit her body perfectly. Now, the final version had already been delivered. In contrast, someone like Yan Xi, who was only trying on her dress now, had likely been contacted by Zhou Qingyu the night before. Blue, the designer, had already chosen a dress tailored to Yan Xi's figure, so only minor adjustments were needed after the fitting. Even so, they had started preparing at least a night earlier.

With the show just around the corner, Ye Luoyi was out of time.

Option one came at too high a cost. Ye Luoyi's endorsement fee with E Brand was 20 million yuan, and breaking the contract would require her to pay five times that amount in penalties—a staggering 100 million yuan! That left only option three.

But Ye Luoyi couldn't accept it.

Her eyes welled up with tears as she looked at Zhou Qingyu with a pitiful expression. "Qingyu, I know you don't like me, but... but I really didn't touch Yan Xi!"

She then turned her gaze to Yan Xi, her eyes even redder. "Yan Xi, didn't you also say I didn't touch you? If that's the case, why are you treating me like this?" Ye Luoyi knew how to play the victim card just as well as Yan Xi.

Yan Xi's eyes darted around as she considered feigning tears herself, but Zhou Qingyu chuckled softly beside her. "Ye Luoyi, who said I wanted you to apologize for tripping earlier?"

Ye Luoyi paused. "Then what for?"

Zhou Qingyu leaned back comfortably on the sofa, looking at Ye Luoyi with a relaxed expression. "Do you think I didn't understand what you were implying when you spoke to Su Lingling earlier? Who were you mocking? Did you think I wouldn't notice?"

"Yan Xi and I have been friends for years. You're not the first to say things like 'Yan Xi is only with me for the money' or 'Yan Xi can tolerate my temper because of the money.' Honestly, after all these years, can't you come up with something new? I'm tired of hearing the same old lines."

"How dare you bully my friend right in front of me? You think you can gossip behind my back, but I can't demand an apology from you?"

[Ahhh! Miss Zhou spent all that money just to stand up for Yan Xi!]

[She's so in love! I'm crying!]

[Why can't I have a best friend like Zhou Qingyu?]

[Not only does she spoil you with money, but she also cares about your dignity! What a goddess of a best friend!]

Yan Xi was stunned by Zhou Qingyu's words.

Over the years, she had heard countless rumors and gossip, and she had grown used to it. It was normal for people from different social classes to face such judgments. She had long stopped caring.

She never expected Zhou Qingyu to take those words to heart.

Yan Xi felt her eyes grow moist as she tugged on Zhou Qingyu's sleeve. "Qingyu, it's really not necessary. I stopped caring about those things a long time ago. Don't waste your money!"

Zhou Qingyu raised an eyebrow smugly and whispered into her little microphone, "I know that, which is why I never planned to buy the dress in the first place!"

Yan Xi: ?

Her tears of gratitude vanished in an instant.

Zhou Qingyu grinned mischievously, "Think about it, making Ye Luoyi change into a formal dress now would definitely be too late. As for the penalty fee, she can't afford it either. So, the only way out is to apologize. There's no need to waste money—just scare them a little~" Yan Xi...

System...

Zhou Qingyu sensed something odd in Yan Xi's gaze, filled with emotions she couldn't quite decipher.

She paused for a moment, then suddenly caught a hint of something in Yan Xi's eyes. "You didn't think I was foolish enough to waste money like that, did you?" Yan Xi quickly replied, "Of course not! You're the smartest!" Zhou Qingyu lifted her head proudly, "Exactly! I may have money, but I'm not stupid. Who would do something so foolish?"

Yan Xi thought for a moment and asked, "But what if Ye Luoyi has some pride and refuses to apologize?"

Zhou Qingyu shrugged, "Then we'll just buy the dress. It's not that expensive anyway."

Yan Xi: ?

System: ?

She has some brains,

but not many.

The pressure was back on Ye Luoyi.

Zhou Qingyu was right. Even if there was no concrete evidence of her tripping someone, her earlier conversation with Su Lingling did carry an undertone of belittling Yan Xi.

Ye Luoyi had assumed that anyone with a bit of sense would hold a grudge against Yan Xi and be cautious when spending money.

She never expected that her words would not only fail to sow discord but instead make Zhou Qingyu willing to spend even more money on Yan Xi!

Did Yan Xi slip Zhou Qingyu some kind of love potion? Why was she being treated so well? Ye Luoyi was extremely reluctant, gritting her teeth as she stepped closer to Yan Xi. Her fists were clenched so tightly that her nails dug into her palms.

Su Lingling wanted to stop Ye Luoyi. She felt the situation didn't warrant an apology, but the dress and the penalty fee from the E brand seemed to matter a lot to Ye Luoyi.

[What a pity, this novel isn't one of those old-school ones.] The system commented in Yan Xi's mind.

"What if it were an old-school novel?" Yan Xi asked.

The system pondered for a moment, [In that case... the female lead would have more backbone! She wouldn't apologize!]

[Those sweet, naive female leads always have a sense of pride. Otherwise, how could they be the female lead?]

[But the 'alluring' female lead is different~ Someone who can flirt with several men at once must have a bit of a 'green tea' vibe. Such a female lead isn't exactly the epitome of righteousness.]

Of course, in female-oriented novels, why should the female lead be so "righteous"? But for someone like Ye Luoyi, this kind of character setup puts her at a disadvantage. Ye Luoyi had already walked up to Yan Xi, her eyes red and her knuckles pale.

The live camera focused on her, and everyone at the scene turned to look. Despite the overwhelming humiliation, she still bowed her head to Yan Xi.

Just as the words "I'm sorry" were about to leave her lips, the door of Blue was suddenly pushed open. A middle-aged woman dressed in an elegant gown walked into Blue. "Is this the kind of backbone E brand has? Bullying your own spokesperson over ten million?" Everyone's gaze shifted to the woman who had just entered. She appeared to be in her fifties but was well-maintained, looking no older than forty. Her hair was elegantly styled, and she wore light, sophisticated makeup. Dressed in a haute couture gown from M brand, she gracefully walked over to Ye Luoyi and Zhou Qingyu.

The designer from E brand bowed respectfully, "Madam Meng! You... you're here!" Meng Yingrong, the eldest daughter of the Meng family.

The Meng family founded the luxury brand M, specializing in high-end products such as jewelry, clothing, and handbags. They also hold shares in other luxury companies, including E.

Meng Yingrong is one of the shareholders of E.

Meng Yingrong glanced coldly at the designer, her eyes exuding an undisguised authority, like a cold moon in the winter night. "Giving up our own spokesperson for ten million? If this gets out to the media, they'll probably think E is going bankrupt!" The designer stammered, "It's not just ten million. Miss Zhou is also one of our clients!"

Meng Yingrong sneered, "Losing one client? E has so many clients. What does it matter to lose just one?"

The designer was speechless.

What could he say when even a shareholder spoke like this?

Of course, he felt it wasn’t fair to the spokesperson, but it was still a client and over ten million. The designer thought Ye Luoyi would understand. If it were anyone else, Meng Yingrong would have chosen the client too, but the person in question was Zhou Qingyu.

Meng Yingrong was tolerant of many people, but she showed no leniency toward Zhou Qingyu. Even though she knew very well that her marriage to Zhou Hongsheng was a contractual one, and Zhou Qingyu's mother's marriage to Zhou Hongsheng was also contractual, the next generation—Zhou Qingyu and Zhou Yanci—were bound to be competitors.

Naturally, Meng Yingrong and Zhou Qingyu were not on the same side.

When Ye Luoyi heard Meng Yingrong's words, she was overwhelmed with gratitude. She had almost been pushed into a pit of fire by Zhou Qingyu, but fortunately, Meng Yingrong appeared, sparing her from having to make that so-called apology.

Meng Yingrong then turned her gaze to Zhou Qingyu. She crossed her arms, the sapphire ring on her finger glinting coldly. "A proper young lady from a wealthy family, yet you act like some nouveau riche. Is this how Zhou Hongsheng raised you?" Zhou Qingyu gritted her teeth. Zhou Yanci was annoying, but his mother was even more so.

"Auntie, my affairs are none of your concern, are they?" Zhou Qingyu retorted sharply.

Meng Yingrong chuckled, her expression even more mocking. "Both children of the Zhou family, yet one is already making waves in the business world, while the other is stuck in the entertainment industry, neither here nor there. Qingyu, if I were you, I’d be too embarrassed to call myself a Zhou!"

"You—!" Zhou Qingyu's face turned pale with anger.

She hated nothing more than being compared unfavorably to Zhou Yanci.

Yan Xi quickly grabbed Zhou Qingyu, afraid she might do something rash toward Meng Yingrong. But Meng Yingrong wasn’t done. "Am I wrong, Zhou Qingyu? You’ve been in the entertainment industry for so long, yet you’re still just a second-tier celebrity who can’t even borrow a gown for the red carpet and has to buy one yourself? If I’d known you’d end up like this, why bother? You could have just asked Yanci. He might have lent you a gown instead of leaving you in such a sorry state."

Zhou Qingyu was furious. How could she not borrow a gown? She just wanted to wear the latest design!

She might not be a top-tier star, but she wasn’t as pathetic as Meng Yingrong made her out to be. Yet, in Meng Yingrong’s eyes, Zhou Qingyu was nothing but a lost cause. In Meng Yingrong’s view, with Zhou Qingyu’s attitude, the Zhou Corporation would inevitably fall into Zhou Yanci’s hands, leaving no room for Zhou Qingyu to meddle.

This was what Zhou Qingyu hated the most.

Yan Xi was terrified the two would escalate the conflict. She had been to the Zhou family before and witnessed clashes between Zhou Qingyu and Meng Yingrong. The two never bothered with superficial politeness, always clashing head-on and parting on bad terms.

In high society circles, it was common knowledge that Zhou Qingyu and the Meng family did not get along.

Yan Xi grabbed Zhou Qingyu's arm, unsure how long she could hold her back. In the past, without live cameras, they could argue and bicker without consequence, but now, with the cameras rolling, a public spat would be a massive embarrassment!

Seeing that Zhou Qingyu was about to snap back, Yan Xi's eyes darted around, and she quickly turned to Meng Yingrong, "Mrs. Meng, is what you just said true?" Meng Yingrong was momentarily stunned, not catching on.

Yan Xi immediately added, "Didn’t you just say you’d take care of all of Qingyu’s red-carpet dresses from now on? You’re such a kind person!"

Meng Yingrong: ?

When had she ever said that?

Yan Xi noticed the flicker of surprise on Meng Yingrong’s face and quickly pressed on, "Oh, Mrs. Meng, you’re not thinking of going back on your word, are you? You just said in front of the cameras that Qingyu is Mr. Zhou’s sister and that you’d generously lend us dresses!"

Meng Yingrong choked.

She took a deep breath, trying to steady herself.

She had only meant to mock Zhou Qingyu! Lending dresses? There was no way she’d lend Zhou Qingyu anything!

But the words were already out, and with the live broadcast, she couldn’t take them back… Fine, she’d just give Zhou Qingyu some outdated designs and be done with it! As Meng Yingrong was thinking this, Yan Xi’s voice rang out confidently, "Qingyu, Mrs. Meng is such a generous person! With your brother being Mr. Zhou and her being so magnanimous, she’ll definitely lend you at least twenty haute couture gowns, right?"

"Twenty?" Ye Luoyi couldn’t help but exclaim, then whispered, "Isn’t that too much?"

Yan Xi looked innocent and clueless, "Too much? It’s just borrowing, not giving. Qingyu could easily buy dresses at twenty times the market price. Is it too much to ask Mrs. Meng to lend twenty? Are wealthy ladies really that stingy?"

Stingy?

You call not lending twenty haute couture gowns stingy?!

Meng Yingrong felt like she was about to explode.

In the past, Zhou Qingyu had always been fiery, easily provoked with just a few words. Why was she so quiet today?

Zhou Qingyu, too, was unusually calm. Every time she met Meng Yingrong, they’d clash, but today she was surprised to find that sometimes, not engaging in an argument—like what Yan Xi was doing—could actually make Meng Yingrong fume.

Just seeing Meng Yingrong angry made Zhou Qingyu happy.

Yan Xi seized the opportunity. With the Weibo Night coming up next month and Fashion Week in full swing, she suggested they try on the dresses early to give M’s designers time to make adjustments.

Meng Yingrong was backed into a corner. She had promised to lend the dresses and couldn’t go back on her word. Reluctantly, she sent someone to fetch the gowns.

However, lending dresses was one thing; what kind of dresses she lent was another. Half an hour later, twenty haute couture gowns were laid out in a row in Blue’s spacious fitting room. M’s fashion sense was always impeccable, but the dresses lent to Zhou Qingyu were not the latest collection—they were from past seasons.

The manager of Blue glanced at the dresses and immediately recognized which shows they were from. He whispered to Zhou Qingyu, "Some of these are from three years ago." In the entertainment industry, only top-tier celebrities could borrow the latest haute couture. The brand mattered, but so did the timing of the collection.

Meng Yingrong tactfully remarked, "M’s policy for lending dresses is based on the celebrity’s status. I… can’t really influence that."

(Heh, Mrs. Meng’s implying that Zhou Qingyu’s status isn’t high enough to borrow the latest designs, isn’t she?)

【Zhou Qingyu couldn't borrow any outfits anyway; she's just a second-tier celebrity who's past her prime. Wearing last season's designs is about all she can manage.】

【So what if she managed to borrow twenty high-fashion pieces? They're all from past seasons! Our Ye Luoyi just needs one piece from the 2023 spring-summer collection to outshine them all!】

【With Zhou Qingyu's status, how could she even compare to Ye Luoyi? Dream on!】 Yan Xi glanced at the dresses Meng Yingrong had borrowed and then nudged Zhou Qingyu, "No wonder you never wear M-brand dresses. They're nowhere near as good as C-brand..." She hadn't turned off her microphone, and her voice quickly spread through the live broadcast. Realizing this, she hastily covered the mic and asked, "Uh... should I have said that?"

Zhou Qingyu chuckled, "Why not? M-brand really isn't as good as C-brand. If I'm going to wear something, it has to be the best. Even the mermaid dress I bought for you is from C-brand!" C-brand is a top-tier luxury label, and they rarely lend out their dresses.

Compared to M-brand, which is still high-end but falls short of being top-tier, Yan Xi nodded seriously, "You're right. Looking at it now, I think the dress you bought for me is much better. Let's return these dresses to Madam Meng. After all, they're not that great."

【I also think the dress Miss Zhou bought for Yan Xi looks better!】 【Miss Zhou is so good to Yan Xi!】

【M-brand's dresses really are a bit lacking. Out of the twenty, not a single one looks as good as the dresses Yan Xi and Miss Zhou are wearing! No wonder Miss Zhou never wears M-brand!】 Meng Yingrong's face turned pale with anger.

One moment they're saying it's not good, the next moment they're saying it's not good—did they think she was dead? In reality, high-end luxury dresses are all handmade, and much of their value comes from the brand's prestige. In terms of design, they're not that far behind C-brand!

Meng Yingrong clenched her teeth, so furious she almost lunged forward to tear Yan Xi and Zhou Qingyu's mouths apart!

She must have been out of her mind to agree to lend dresses to Yan Xi and Zhou Qingyu in the first place! As for Zhou Qingyu, does she even deserve to wear M-brand dresses? Does she?!

Wu Liao thought Yan Xi must have gone mad.

In front of the live broadcast camera, with millions of viewers watching, she criticized M-brand's design quality? Offending a brand like that—who would be willing to lend Zhou Qingyu dresses in the future? Not to mention, she even contacted him to buy a trending topic mocking M-brand! Right now, only the viewers of the variety show knew about this. If they bought the trending topic, wouldn't the whole internet find out? Was she trying to cut off all of Zhou Qingyu's fashion resources? Even if Zhou Qingyu had the money to buy her own dresses, what about high-end endorsements? Fashion magazine covers?

In the meeting room, Qiao Yan saw the text message Yan Xi had sent to Wu Liao. After a moment of thought, she asked, "High-end endorsements... does Miss Zhou even have those?" Wu Liao stroked his chin, pondering, "She does, right?"

Miss Zhou's acting skills are a complete mess. After two years in the industry, she still doesn't have a single notable work to her name. The only reason she's still considered a second-tier celebrity is because of her stunning looks and her frequent appearances on red carpets, which often go viral.

Qiao Yan shattered Wu Liao's assumptions, "She does have them. Back then, E-brand was impressed by her red-carpet presence and wanted her to endorse them, but she gave the opportunity to Tianhui." Wu Liao: ?

Wu Liao cautiously asked, "...What about fashion magazine covers? Surely she has those?" Qiao Yan: "She does. She gave those to Tianhui too."

Wu Liao: ??????????

Wu Liao fell silent for a long time before finally sighing and patting Qiao Yan on the shoulder, "You've had it rough."

At this point, Zhou Qingyu didn't need brands to lend her dresses, nor did she have high-end endorsements or magazine resources. Yan Xi's actions had no impact on her.

Wu Liao always felt something was off. After all, in the entertainment industry, it was common knowledge that buying trending topics was a standard practice—positive ones for yourself and negative ones for your rivals. Wu Liao couldn’t understand why Yan Xi would go against the grain. Even if Zhou Qingyu had no fashion resources… this still didn’t make sense. Qiao Yan glanced at Wu Liao with a faint smile. “You’re not the one who’s being ridiculous. What Yan Xi asked me to do is even more absurd!”

Qiao Yan pulled up the text message Yan Xi had sent her. “Yan Xi asked me to contact the legal department, saying that Miss Zhou would soon secure an endorsement deal with M brand, most likely with the highest title. She told me to have the legal team ready to review the contract for any issues.” Wu Liao’s eyes widened. “They criticized M brand on the variety show, and now they think M brand will sign Miss Zhou as their brand ambassador?”

Qiao Yan nodded. “I think that’s exactly what Yan Xi means.”

Wu Liao: ????????

Wu Liao felt like his brain was overheating. If Yan Xi wasn’t out of her mind, then M brand must be. It couldn’t possibly be that just because the company’s name started with an “M,” they were all a bunch of masochists, right?

Besides, Wu Liao thought that while any high-end luxury brand in the world might consider Zhou Qingyu as their ambassador, M brand definitely wouldn’t.

The head of M brand was Meng Huaigu, who had three children: the eldest son, Meng Xuanhao; the eldest daughter, Meng Yingrong; and the second son, Meng Xuanyu.

The relationship between Meng Yingrong and Zhou Yanci was well-known, and the power struggle between Zhou Qingyu and Zhou Yanci over the Zhou family’s wealth was something even Wu Liao and Qiao Yan had heard about. Given all this, how could M brand possibly choose Zhou Qingyu as their ambassador?

Wu Liao felt a headache coming on. Based on Zhou Qingyu’s status, she might barely qualify for an endorsement deal with M brand, but it would never be the highest title. Now, with the added complication of Zhou Yanci’s involvement, and the fact that Yan Xi and Zhou Qingyu had publicly criticized M brand—even planning to buy negative trending topics about it—how could Yan Xi still think Zhou Qingyu could land the highest title with M brand? This was beyond absurd.

Wu Liao didn’t contact the Weibo team. Instead, he sent a message back to Yan Xi, earnestly explaining, “We can’t buy this trending topic! It’ll ruin Miss Zhou’s chances with fashion brands!”

Over in Licheng, Yan Xi was busy critiquing M brand’s haute couture with Zhou Qingyu and didn’t have time to check Wu Liao’s message. The system, acting as her assistant, automatically took over and replied using its data stream.

“No, it’s fine. If we buy the trending topic, we’ll definitely be able to borrow M brand’s latest haute couture collection and secure the highest title endorsement deal! But if we don’t, we might lose out on both!”

Worried that its tone might sound too robotic, the system thoughtfully added a smiling emoji: ^_^

Wu Liao: “…”

Wu Liao didn’t believe a word of what Yan Xi said. Besides, he was watching the live broadcast of *Travel*, where Yan Xi was clearly critiquing M brand’s haute couture on Blue. How could she possibly be replying to his message?

Had her phone been stolen?

Seeing that Wu Liao still hadn’t responded, the system added another message: “If you’re not willing, I’ll just buy it myself?”

Yan Xi had already warned the system in her mind that Wu Liao might not agree to buying the trending topic, so she had asked the system to look up how to do it. Zhou Qingyu had given Yan Xi plenty of gifts, and with Yan Xi’s own scholarship money, buying a trending topic was more than enough. Wu Liao gritted his teeth.

Under normal circumstances, he would never agree to this. But Yan Xi had pulled off similar stunts before, which gave Wu Liao a tiny glimmer of hope.

Forget it, Zhou Qingyu's reputation is already in the gutter. Criticizing M brand won't make it any worse.

"Let's not involve Weibo in this. It's too easy to leave evidence behind," Wu Liao instructed his subordinates. "The company has plenty of paid commenters, right? Let them push the hashtag into the top 50 trending topics!"

Meanwhile, Zhou Yanci had just wrapped up a negotiation.

At the conference table, both parties successfully signed the documents and shook hands amicably. The representative from the other side, a Frenchman with a romantic and profound demeanor, didn't hold back his praise for Zhou Yanci. "Zhou! You're far more professional than that Meng Xuanyu guy! Looking forward to our future collaboration!"

Zhou Yanci replied calmly, "Looking forward to it as well."

After the representative left, Assistant Sun immediately informed Zhou Yanci about the incident involving Blue.

"Mr. Zhou, Mrs. Meng was really upset," Assistant Sun said in a low voice. "And their conversation was broadcast live. The part where Yan Xi and Miss Zhou criticized M brand was also aired..." Yan Xi and Zhou Qingyu weren't afraid of making an enemy out of M brand because they had no intention of wearing M brand's dresses in the first place. However, their comments about M brand had spread, leading others to compare M brand and C brand's designs. [Honestly, the two mermaid gowns Miss Zhou picked for Yan Xi completely outshined all the haute couture dresses Meng Yingrong brought from M brand!]

[To be fair, M brand does have some beautiful dresses, but the twenty sets Meng Yingrong brought were rather mediocre. Meanwhile, Miss Zhou bought Yan Xi the latest C brand autumn-winter collection! It's like comparing a pro version to a basic one—how could they even compete?]

[If Meng Yingrong had lent Zhou Qingyu some of the nicer dresses, she wouldn't have been overshadowed so badly!]

"According to the latest information we received, the C brand mermaid gowns are part of a series themed 'Ocean.' Two of them have already been secured by Zhou Qingyu. Since Yan Xi looked stunning in them, combined with the influence of the 'Travel' variety show, the other sets have also been pre-ordered," Assistant Sun reported to Zhou Yanci. "But their criticism of M brand has made it difficult to sell those twenty haute couture dresses."

Hashtags like #YanXiSaysMBrandDressesAreUgly and #ZhouQingyuDislikesMBrandDresses had already made it to the trending list, which was extremely damaging to the brand's reputation. Zhou Yanci pinched the bridge of his nose. "Has the trending topic been taken down?"

Assistant Sun replied, "It was removed as soon as it entered the top 50."

After everything that had happened, Zhou Yanci didn't believe for a second that this was a coincidence. He even suspected that Yan Xi had Xingyao buy the trending spot.

No celebrity would publicly badmouth a luxury brand—it was practically asking to be blacklisted by the fashion industry, which could lead to other brands refusing to work with her.

But Zhou Qingyu didn't care. She was a client, after all. The haute couture she wore was all purchased by herself, and she spent a fortune on various brands every year. Brands were practically falling over themselves to please her. While criticizing a brand's designs might not mean much coming from an ordinary person, a celebrity's influence was significant, and it would inevitably impact the brand.

Meng Yingrong thought she had mocked Zhou Qingyu by laughing at her inability to borrow haute couture, but in reality, M brand would have to go to greater lengths to salvage its reputation. Zhou Yanci couldn't help but feel a sense of helplessness. Not having to clean up Zhou Qingyu's messes felt great, but if Yan Xi ever turned her sights on his mother, he'd have to step in and fix things for her.

"Mr. Zhou, the Meng family is on the line!"

Assistant Sun respectfully handed over the phone, the screen displaying the name "Meng Huaigu." Meng Huaigu, the father of Meng Yingrong and also the maternal grandfather of Zhou Yanci. Zhou Yanci answered the call, "Grandfather, it's me."

The elderly man on the other end of the line sighed, "Yanci, Yingrong is still a bit immature about this matter. I’m counting on you to handle it."

Zhou Yanci replied, "Don’t worry, I’ll take care of it."

After hanging up, the meeting room fell into silence.

Assistant Sun bent slightly and inquired, "Mr. Zhou, M Brand’s PR department isn’t performing well. Should we ask the Zhou Corporation’s PR team to step in?"

"No need," Zhou Yanci said calmly. "The PR team isn’t capable of handling this." He stood up. "Have M Brand compile all their high-end new releases for this year, including the limited editions. We’re heading to Blue."

Assistant Sun was stunned. "What are we going to Blue for?"

Zhou Yanci replied, "To sign a contract with Zhou Qingyu and appoint her as the brand ambassador for M Brand."
