759 A Straight Man’s Gift, Surprise
“I know him, but he doesn’t know me.”
“Oh,” Grandpa Shi said coldly.
However, they had started talking about Xie Yunzhou.
Zhou Yi started. “I even bought his book before-”
“Xie Yunzhou wrote a book?” Shi Xi was puzzled.
“The Business Paragon. I bought the first edition and the hardcover edition, as well as the accompanying video of his speech.” Speaking of Xie Yunzhou, Zhou Yi started to dance with joy.
Grandpa Shi became even colder. “He’s just a young man who doesn’t know anything. How dare you learn to write a book?”
Zhou Yi paused for a moment. Seeing that Grandpa Shi was his leader, he did not argue much and only said, “It’s quite enlightening for people like us who have just entered the business world.”
Seeing that the atmosphere at the table was not right, Shi Xu changed the topic. “Zhou Yi, I heard that your recent project is about to end.”
“Do you want to take on the role at Kuai Xue? It’s also the vice president’s position. Help take care of it.”
Kuai Xue Entertainment was originally a small entertainment company, but now that its self-made drama had hit the stars and its self-made movie had become a hit, it urgently needed someone to take charge.
Zhou Yi agreed immediately. “Sure.”
If Xie Yunzhou was optimistic about the project, he would definitely support it!
“Then please take care of Xi Xi in the future.” Shi Xu raised his cup.
Zhou Yi sipped his wine, his face brimming with happiness.
This was a gift from President Xie!
Good wine!
After dinner, Zhou Yi took his leave.
Grandpa Shi pulled a long face and said to Shi Xu, “This won’t do. You can find another one.”
Shi Xu: “…”
Shi Xi, who was eating mangoes at the side: “…”
After Shi Xi finished eating the mango, she said to Grandpa Shi, “Grandpa, I’m still young. I’m not in a hurry to get married.”
“If you want to matchmake someone, shouldn’t you consider Big Brother first?”
Shi Xu: ???
Grandpa Shi was deep in thought. He stared at Shi Xu and said, “You’re not young anymore. Don’t you have a partner?”
Shi Xu looked at Shi Xi helplessly and said to Grandpa Shi, “I’m looking for it.”
Shi Xi, [You’ve successfully changed the topic!]
She was the least anxious person!

A few days after returning from the Shi family’s old residence, Shi Xi received a call from Zhou Yi.
“Do you have time to have a meal together?” Zhou Yi asked.
“I’ve been busy with work recently. I don’t have time,” Shi Xi declined.
[Sky Blue] was about to start filming and she was very busy.
“It’s not just the two of us,” Zhou Yi said with a smile. “There’s still Han Chuan. Let’s talk about the movie’s sequel.”
“Movie sequels? Energetic Girl 2?”
“Yes, [Energetic Girl] did well at the box office. Many viewers want to watch the second film, so we have to start planning now.” Zhou Yi was indeed a worker. He had already started working.
If it was for work, Shi Xi would have time. “Alright, then set a time and place. I’ll go with Brother Han.”
After deciding on the time and place, Shi Xi went to ask Han Chuan about it, preparing to talk to Zhou Yi about Energetic Girl 2.
After all, the box office earnings were not bad.
Even if it was during the Spring Festival, the attendance rate would still beat other movies of the same period.
Qingshui Restaurant.
When Shi Xi arrived, Zhou Yi was already waiting.
“I’m sorry, Brother Han can’t come today. If there’s anything, just tell me.” Shi Xi smiled apologetically.
Lou Ruicong was injured on the variety show and went straight to the hospital. Han Chuan went to deal with it.
Hence, she was the only one who came to the appointment today.
“It’s fine. I’m treating you and Brother Han to a meal today because I want to get to know them better.” Zhou Yi gave Shi Xi a bag. “This is a gift for you.”
Shi Xi did not want to accept the gift.
She did not want to be ambiguous with other men.
Zhou Yi saw the rejection on her face and smiled. “It’s not a valuable gift. It’s a book from President Xie.”
