Chapter 144 - 144: Make the Move
On the other hand, Meng Tian didn’t have any scenes to shoot these two days, nor did she have any variety shows to go on. She stayed at home every day.
When she was browsing online videos, she saw news about Pei Xin and Lu Huai. When she found out that the two were going to collaborate on a livestream again, Meng Tian immediately shot up from her bed.
She called her manager and asked if she would still be the one to bring the goods for the livestream.
The company had given her a 1 percent commission when she joined the livestream last time
Even if it was only 1 percent, it was still a considerable amount of income for Meng Tian.
When she heard that the livestream was about to start again, she wanted to participate in it again.
With the host explaining everything besides her, she only needed to interact with the audience in the live stream.
She couldn’t wait to go to this method of saving trouble and making a few extra bucks.
However, her manager told her that she was not asked to attend, and she did not receive any notice from Lu Huai.
Meng Tian was furious when she heard the news.
She felt that Pei Xin must have held a grudge for what happened last time.
Since she had nothing to do, Meng Tian packed her things and went to settle the score with Pei Xin.
She put on black clothes, a hat, and a mask. She put on heavy makeup and a wig.
After confirming that she would not be recognized by passersby, Meng Tian drove a very ordinary car to Pei Xin’s company.
Meng Tian thought of many things to say on the way. She was prepared to negotiate terms with Pei Xin. However, she never expected that she would be stopped by the receptionist of Pei Xin’s company.
“Go tell Pei Xin that Meng Tian is looking for her to discuss the upcoming livestream,” Meng Tian said impatiently to the receptionist.
The receptionist said, “You don’t have an appointment here. 1 can’t let you in. If you have something urgent to say, you can wait here and I’ll contact her and see what she has to say.”
Meng Tian was very impatient. She couldn’t help but roll her eyes and reprimand the receptionist. “I said I’m Meng Tian. Can’t you recognize my voice? I’m a celebrity. Shouldn’t 1 have the right to enter? The last livestream was a collaboration between me and your company. Do you even have a brain? Are you even worthy of being a receptionist?”
Zhou Yu happened to see this scene when she went downstairs to buy coffee.
She took the initiative to walk over to help the front desk.
Zhou Yu said to the receptionist, “This is Meng Tian. I’ll bring her up. Thank you for your hard work. You’ve done well.”
The receptionist was fuming at Meng Tian’s attitude. Now that she had received Zhou Yu’s comfort, she instantly felt wronged.
The company had a rule that non-employees were not allowed to enter the company unless they had an appointment.
She was only doing her job as a receptionist, but she was being held at gunpoint by Meng Tian.
Even if Meng Tian was a celebrity, she did not pay attention to the entertainment industry. She had never watched anything that Meng Tian acted in.
She was just a celebrity, yet she thought so highly of herself.
“Thank you, Zhou Yu,” the receptionist thanked Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu brought Meng Tian to the elevator. As it wasn’t working hours, there were only the two of them in the elevator.
Meng Tian couldn’t control her temper at all. She complained to Zhou Yu, “Your company’s receptionist needs to be replaced. 1 came all the way here, but she still couldn’t recognize me. If your company has more important guests in the future and they are all blocked by a small receptionist, do you know how much business you will lose?”
Zhou Yu looked at Meng Tian calmly.
“I don’t think the receptionist did anything wrong. She was just doing her job. 1 brought you into the company because our company is currently working with CEO Lu’s company.
“We worked together the last time, so we can be considered acquaintances. I know that you might have your motives for coming to the company, so 1 brought you in.
“If our two companies weren’t collaborating and I didn’t livestream with you before, even if you were the most popular celebrity on the earth, I wouldn’t have brought you into our company.”
Meng Tian was angered by Zhou Yu’s statement.
Although her status wasn’t very high, she was still considered to be popular online.
Most of the staff around her flattered her every day, so much so that Meng Tian became a little smug.
In front of her fans, she would still put on an act and put on a pure and harmless attitude. Outside the camera, her nature was arrogant and domineering, and she had the little princess syndrome..
