Chapter 661 - 661 Cruise Ship at Sea
661 Cruise Ship at Sea
After the supervisory team left, it would take a few days for calm to be restored in M City.
No matter how gloomy the Rongwei Group was, Chu Ning was preparing for the The Parade’s opening for business in a celebratory mood.
They had earlier come to an agreement with the merchants on an opening date in a month’s time, and the merchants who had signed the contract had begun to renovate their stores.
Chu Ning didn’t have to worry about this. She was currently concerned about the publicity of The Parade.
Zhang Bo sat across from her. He saw her frowning and in pensive mood. He suggested, “Find a celebrity to do a commercial performance. The publicity should be enough.”
Chu Ning sighed. “I’ve thought of this method as well, but with the Soaring Clouds Group’s status and my influence, no matter how much money I spend, I won’t be able to hire a big star. If the influence of the fans isn’t enough, then it’s useless to hire a star.”
Zhang Bo also fell deep in thought upon hearing that. She was right; although Chu Ning could be considered young and promising in M City, the Soaring Clouds Group had just been established. Whether in terms of scale or influence, it was not within the scope of cooperation of celebrities.
Chu Ning thought about it and helplessly dialed her partner’s number. “Hello? Zhou Wei?”
Zhou Wei was in a good mood after listening to his subordinates’ report on the dogfight between Zhou Hao and Zhang Rong. His tone was also relaxed. “What is it? What other fun things are you calling me up for?”
Chu Ning’s mouth twitched. It seemed that her previous suggestion was quite effective, but this time she was asking for his help. “I need your help with something.”
Zhou Wei was not surprised. In their cooperative relationship, they usually did not approach each other without reason. “Go ahead; what is it?”
Chu Ning did not stand on ceremony at all. “Help me invite a celebrity for the opening ceremony of The Parade. I want someone with a lot of fans; someone with influence, and a wide audience.”
Zhou Wei raised his eyebrows and said in a nonchalant tone, “That’s all? Is one enough? Invite a few more.”
Chu Ning heaved a sigh of relief. She was adhering to the concept of not taking advantage of b*stards. She quickly agreed. “Thank you very much. You’re indeed Young Master Zhou. You’re so generous.”
Zhou Wei was also amused when he heard Chu Ning’s words. “But President Chu is someone. How could you not be able to hire a celebrity?”
Chu Ning’s heart skipped a beat, but she still said to Zhou Wei, “I can’t compare to Young Master Zhou’s family business. Thank you.” After saying that, she quickly hung up.
Seeing that the matter had been resolved, Zhang Bo did not delay any further and went to prepare for The Parade’s opening ceremony.
Chu Ning picked up her cup and slowly took a sip of tea. Before she could put down her cup, she received a call from Yan Shen.
Ever since Chu Ning accompanied Yan Shen to B City the last time, he was always finding something to chat with Chu Ning about. There was nothing important. He would ask Chu Ning daily about what she was doing, whether she had eaten, and even share his daily life with her.
Chu Ning kept feeling that something was wrong. She slowly realized that this way of getting along made her feel like she was in a relationship with Yan Shen.
“Hello?” Chu Ning picked up the phone. “What’s up?”
“I’ve received an invitation to a cruise ship. Do you want to go with me?” Yan Shen’s tone was as calm as ever.
“When?” Chu Ning thought for a moment. “For how long?”
Yan Shen looked at the invitation card in his hand. “Three days later, we can go for seven days.”
Chu Ning calculated the timing; there was no conflict. “Alright. How do I get there? Where is it?”
Upon hearing that she had accepted the invitation, Yan Shen’s tone lightened. “I’ll pick you up downstairs in three days. I’ll get the chaffeur to send us there. It’s in H City. It’s not too far away.”
Chu Ning agreed. When she heard Yan Shen hang up the phone, she couldn’t help but think of how, when she had been chatting with Xu Xi, Second Brother had asked if she was chatting with the boy she liked.
She thought of her barren relationship experience in her previous life, and then remembered how she had avoided Yan Shen when she had first transmigrated.
As she thought about it, Chu Ning shook her head, flustered, and scoffed at herself. What was she thinking? She had not achieved her grand goal yet, and was already thinking about dating. She was really regressing. Could it be that she could not live without a man?
She quickly picked up the teacup and took a sip of water to calm herself down. No one noticed that her ears had turned red.
