Chapter 415 - We need to talk (4) (1/2)

”And...”

”And what?” Ryn had the feeling that this journey would be a nagging session or in Mei Li's own selfish opinion, a love lesson from Mei Li. To make it even worst, Mei Li has never even been in a relationship before! And she was acting like a love guru toward someone who actually has experience in love albeit with the same man. Talk about crazy.

”I think you two acted like an old married couple. Boring. Bring in some spices in your relationship,” Mei Li suggested.

”Bondage? S&M?” Ryn narrowed her eyes suspiciously.

At the words, Mei Li was hit with a couple of coughs. She could not believe this model could even utter those words with a straight face. ”Ryn!”

”What?”

”What are you... Are you...” Mei Li was too shocked to continue her words. She grumbled something under her breath but it was too low for Ryn to hear.

Ryn c.o.c.ked an eyebrow, waiting rather provokingly. She wanted to see what Mei Li would say. This single woman should just shut her mouth off regarding her relationship. If she did not start shooting comments and complaints, Ryn would not mind at all. She would prefer Mei Li did not speak at all regarding her relationship. She took Mei Li as her manager to manage her work, not to be a busybody and yeach her how to treat Jeremy. This was out of Mei Li's jobscope!

Mei Li was stumped. She could feel That Ryn was not impressed with her. But she did not regret pointing it out and suggesting to her how to act with her boyfriend. Mei Li only wanted the best for Ryn and she did not want to see the younger woman miserable.

”Just... forget about it, ”Ryn said finally. She felt silly trying to win against her manager on this silly topic. Regarding her relationship with Jeremy, she would not decide on it yet. She wanted to see what Jeremy would say later tonight. It gave both of them a chance to open up their heart and their mind. And if it ended with both of them taking their own separate way, they could do it with an open mind and know that they have tried their best. If fate said their love is still so strong to handle all the incoming challenges, nothing could break them apart.

That was what Ryn decided and that was that.

None of them said another word. Ryn stared at her phone silently, deep in her thought. Hopefully, this was the best.

Mei Li managed to find an empty parking slot at the restaurant. Ryn waited until Mei Li has finished arranging her handbag comfortably before she, together with her manager, went into the building.

The representatives from the brand were already there when they arrived. The waiter who showed then the room waited for Ryn and Mei Li to order their dinner before she excused herself. As Ryn has the habit of not eating much when during meeting with any brand, she only asked for dessert; chocolate lava pudding while Mei Li asked for salad.

It took only about an hour for the meeting to conclude with Ryn agreed to sign a contract for three years to be their spokesperson. Of course, Mei Li informed them about Ryn who was no longer single, which some brands thought not appropriate for their spokesperson to have.

So far none of the brands Ryn represented have no such clause but Ryn did hear some brands did put such condition for their model or the model has to paid some sums for going against the contract.

Ryn signed the contract and chatted some more. Although she was getting sleepy but she did not show it at all. Her eyes wide opened and her smile never left her face. The person in charge and his assistant were satisfied with Ryn. Ryn watched as Mei Li discussed when and where the advertis.e.m.e.nt would be shooting. She did not give any thought because she knew Mei Li would be aware when Ryn did not want her days to be disturbed.

Ryn and Mei Li shook hands with the men and although they wanted to send the women home, Mei Li knew what to say as an excuse. Of course, she would not reveal that Ryn has a 'date' with Jeremy later.

”Phew... done,” Ryn murmured once the men left, finally left. She rubbed her nape tiredly as she sat back on the chair.

”Are you sure you don't want me to accompany you?” Mei Li asked after she sat back on her chair and drank the plain water. Discussing really dried up her throat. But later, she knew she would be rushing to the bathroom to pee. Whatever. She was thirsty so she would drink.

”No need. I have no doubt he would send me home. Insist to send me home,” Ryn shrugged. She knew him already and could guess what he would do later... unless he made her angry again.

However, even if he made her angry, he would still insist to send her home for her own safety.

”Is he here?” Mei Li asked. She checked the time. It was almost the time that she booked the room.
