After considering it, he still asked, "Why do you have such an aversion to those two words?"
His gaze landed indifferently on Yun Ya’s face, hoping to discern sothing, but to his disappointnt, the young girl smiled with proper elegance, seamless as celestial garb.
"There’s no reason. I’ve just naturally despised them since birth."
Pei Jinghong frowned slightly, "Your situation seems like a kind of ntal disorder..."
Yun Ya’s lips curled coldly, "Vice President Pei, don’t use your tactics for dealing with patients on . I have other things to do. I must be going." With those words, she quickly left the hospital.
Pei Jinghong watched the girl’s retreating back, his eyebrows slightly furrowed.
——
Without reason, whenever she heard others ntion those two words in her presence, she instinctively felt it was an insult, and would bristle defensively to protect herself.
Indeed, it was an overconcern for Miaomiao that caused it, and Pei Jinghong was right; it was a kind of psychological disorder.
But she never considered changing.
As she pondered this, the taxi stopped at the furniture market.
The furniture market was huge, and after browsing around, Yun Ya selected a bed with two bedside tables, a set of desk and bookshelves, and a tea table sofa set. She paid in full, left her address and phone number, and requested delivery within a specified ti.
After leaving the furniture market, Yun Ya rushed to the mall and bought a dozen pieces of clothing in one go, again paying in full and opting for ho delivery.
Ti passed quickly, and Yun Ya sat in a cafe at four in the afternoon, sipping coffee and admiring the scenery outside the glass window.
With just a casual pose, the young girl exemplified a flowing grace. Her fair profile, lit by the soft sunlight, radiated a warmth like soft jade, captivating ti with its gentle brilliance.
In a corner, a middle-aged man in black-frad glasses stared wide-eyed at the girl, a gleam in his eyes as if he had discovered a treasure. Pushing his glasses up, he stood and approached.
"Miss, are you alone? Do you mind if I sit here?" he asked, gesturing at the empty seat opposite her.
Most won, especially if accosted by an unattractive man, would probably be quite annoyed, but this girl showed no sign of embarrassnt or anger, simply nodding indifferently, her voice as morable as her presence.
"Please sit."
Such nobility and poise flowed from her very bones. The mont he saw the girl’s true face, he felt excitent mixed with a chill.
He was thrilled because the girl was even more beautiful and elegant than he had imagined, shining with a subtle luster like a peerless pearl. Yet he felt a chilling realization that soone of her apparent noble birth would likely never entertain his wishes.
Still, he decided to try his luck.
"Aren’t you in school today?" He started to make conversation; the girl looked like a high school student, and it was Monday, a typical school day.
Yun Ya’s gaze drifted towards the window, her dark and deep eyes misty and distant.
"What exactly do you want to say?"
The man felt sowhat embarrassed, not expecting to be so directly addressed. Dispensing with small talk, he pulled out a business card from his inner pocket and pushed it toward her, smiling, "My na is Gu Cheng, I am an agent with Xinghuang Entertainnt Company. I think you have great potential and I would like to recruit you into the entertainnt industry. Within three years, as long as you work hard and with your looks, you will certainly shoot to stardom."
So he was a talent scout.
Yun Ya picked up the business card between her fingers. Gu Cheng had never seen such beautiful hands before—slender, nimble, they reminded him of art pieces ant for admiration rather than to be sullied by the dust of this world.
With her fingers, Yun Ya twirled the thin card rapidly at her fingertips, dazzling Gu Cheng.
With a slight flick, the card flew into the air before softly landing.
Her lips curved slightly, and with a bit of insolent grace, she brushed aside a lock of hair that had fallen by her temple. A simple gesture, yet it revealed an indescribable charm.
Indeed, she possessed an alluring beauty that could bring a city to its knees.
"I’m sorry, but I have no interest in becoming an actress."
