I rejected your confession, but you took my best friend home?

Chapter 327 You just go as usual, leave the rest to me...

"Ah? What..."

Then, Gu Bo took a deep breath, slowly exhaled, and said:

"Here's the thing, yesterday, the person in charge of this event called and said you could come, but only if you had to have dinner with him..."

"Oh...ah?! What does that mean?"

Jing Yu frowned, her face showing a serious expression, looking somewhat angry...

"Don't be nervous, it's just a meal. In fact, many models have already offered themselves to us, but we've all turned them down."

"No way, I won't go. He's definitely up to no good. I won't make such a sacrifice for this opportunity."

Jing Yu shook her head and resolutely refused. Having been in the industry for quite some time, she was acutely aware of its darker side.

Countless times, hands have tried to drag her into the abyss, but she has always firmly refused, so she will do the same this time.

"Sigh, you have no choice. The company has already accepted these conditions on your behalf. If you don't go, you'll be in breach of contract..."

"No...they didn't even ask for my opinion! Why did they agree on my behalf? Did you agree too?"

Jing Yu frowned, pointed at Gu Bo, and questioned him with some agitation.

Gu Bo adjusted his glasses and said calmly:

"I'm doing this for you, isn't it? It's just a meal, not sleeping with you, why are you making such a fuss? You're still too young. This kind of thing will happen often in the future. You can't even handle this little bit now?"

"This time it's just a meal, and then what? What about next time? Isn't this just the beginning? Otherwise, what's his motive? Does he enjoy eating more when he's with me?"

Gu Bo pursed his lips, crossed his legs, and said:

"Then either you find a way to get this spot yourself, or don't go against the company's decision!"

"Sure! I've found a solution, and I was just about to tell you about it!"

"Ok?"

"I have a friend who can help me, although there are conditions. The condition is that I have to be Junheng's free spokesperson in the future. I believe in him, and I will definitely keep my word!"

Jing Yu now sees Zhou Heng as her only lifeline; only he can help her escape this predicament...

But when Gu Bo heard this, he was stunned for a few seconds, then he wondered if he had misheard...

"Jingyu, when did you learn to lie? How could you utter such a clumsy lie?"

"I...I didn't lie!"

"Do you want to listen to what you're saying? It's already absurd enough that you say you have friends who can help you. How much power does a college student have to say something like that? Secondly, what do you think we're doing? We're begging them to be our spokespeople! And you're telling me the condition is to be a free spokesperson? Forget free, we'd pay them for it! Can't you realize how ridiculous your lie is?"

"I..."

Jing Yu was so taken aback that she couldn't say anything, her mind a complete mess...

She genuinely didn't know whether this condition was a good thing or a bad thing...

Junheng's influence is undeniable; countless people would love to be its spokesperson, but none have the opportunity. Forget free, some would even pay to be one...

However, their condition is that she must attend any event, big or small, whenever she is needed. This is something to consider carefully, because there's no guarantee that every appearance will have a positive impact...

Jing Yu's fists clenched tightly, trembling slightly. He lowered his head, remained silent for a long while, and then spoke, word by word:

"I...I didn't lie! I believe him!"

"You're being childish. You're not playing house. I hope you can take your work seriously. I'll be waiting for you at the restaurant entrance at 8 PM tonight. Here's the address."

Gu Bo handed Jing Yu a business card directly; it was the business card of a high-end restaurant.

Jing Yu's face darkened. She hated this feeling, this feeling of being manipulated and having no choice...

However, she didn't say anything more. She knew that saying anything more would not get her anywhere, and she could only find a solution herself.

Jing Yu took the business card, then opened the car door and got out without saying a word, heading straight back to the school.

She went to class, but while in the classroom, she was sullen and couldn't concentrate on the lesson at all.

All I can think about is what to do tonight...

Tang Zhi and Yu Lingxue saw all of this.

After class, the two went to Jingyu's desk and asked:

"What's wrong? Why do you seem so down? Did something happen?"

"what?"

Jing Yu looked up and saw the two people in front of him, then let out a heavy sigh...

"Oh, it's nothing."

"Just tell us what's wrong. Even if we can't help, we can still offer some suggestions, right?"

Tang Zhi leaned against the windowsill and said softly.

Jingyu realized that she might not be able to solve this problem alone, so she told the two of them what had happened...

Upon hearing this, they frowned, especially Yu Lingxue, whose expression turned quite unpleasant.

"The person in charge of the event... shouldn't it be Manager Zhang from the marketing department? That guy is over forty years old."

"You know her?" Jing Yu looked up at Yu Lingxue and asked in surprise.

Yu Lingxue shook her head and said, "No, I don't know him, I've only heard of him. Anyway, you definitely can't do what he wants, he's sure he doesn't have any good intentions."

"But I have no other choice... The company already agreed on my behalf, and if I don't have any other option, I have to go tonight..."

Jing Yu lowered her head in utter despair, covering her head with her hands, looking extremely frustrated...

Tang Zhi shrugged and said, "There's only one person who can help you with this."

"Who?"

"Zhou Heng... really, only he can help you."

"Zhou Heng..."

Jing Yu did have high hopes for Zhou Heng, but she couldn't guarantee he would actually help her, especially since this involved a conflict between herself and the company...

The other party is Junheng's marketing manager; even Zhou Heng probably wouldn't be able to interfere...

Nevertheless, Jingyu still placed her hopes on Zhou Heng. During her lunch break, she went to Junheng Building again to find Zhou Heng...

Zhou Heng and Yin Mengran had just finished class and were heading out for dinner when they saw Jing Yu.

Zhou Heng and the others were not surprised by Jing Yu's arrival, assuming she had already negotiated with the company.

But then, Jingyu told them what had happened that morning, and Zhou Heng immediately frowned...

"You mean... someone from Junheng? They want you to have dinner with them, and then they'll give you this spot, right?"

"Yes, that's right... I heard it was Manager Zhang from the marketing department. I really had no choice, so..."

Before Jing Yu could finish his plea, Zhou Heng waved his hand and said:

"You don't need to say anything. It's eight o'clock tonight, right? Just go as usual, and leave the rest to me..."
