332 Chapter 332. Unforeseen Event
“Should I order a glass of juice for Miss Ding?” Wang Shi, silent all this while, looked at Ding Shan and said, “Please forgive me, Miss Ding. I was too offensive just now.”
Ding Shan ignored Wang Shi.
Xiao Zhao raised her voice and said, “It’s fine, our Shanshan isn’t such a petty person, and she didn’t take Director Wang’s matter to heart. It’s just that female celebrities all need to maintain their figure, and it’s our Shanshan’s habit to skip dinner, so please don’t force her. You guys go ahead and eat; we’ll talk about cooperation while we eat.”
Wang Shi stared at Xiao Zhao gloomily; his hands clenched into fists under the table.
Why was Ding Shan’s manager so annoying?
Wang Shi forced a smile on his face. “It’s fine as long as Miss Ding doesn’t blame me. Let me have a drink first to apologize to Miss Ding.”
With that, Wang Shi drank a full glass of white wine.
“Director Wang is forthright. Then let’s forget about what happened just now.” President Li said with a smile. Then, he looked at Ding Shan and talked about the endorsement deal.
“It’s like this, Boss Li, ” Ding Shan said unhurriedly, “Previously, a beverage endorsement came to me, and I’m currently discussing cooperation with the other party. If I accept your endorsement, I’m afraid there will be a conflict, so ….”
Ding Shan’s words weren’t false. Before participating in the variety show, a dairy brand invited her to be their spokesperson.
Ding Shan had initially planned to go to the manufacturing factory of this brand to inspect it before deciding if she wanted to accept this endorsement. After all, it was a food endorsement, and it would be a grave matter once something went wrong. She still had to be careful.
The golden sun also had a dairy industry, and the two brands were competitors. A celebrity couldn’t endorse two competing brands, so Ding Shan’s reason for rejection was reasonable.
President Li and Wang Shi looked at each other, then President Li showed a disappointed look and said regretfully, “Looks like we’re still a step too late.”
“I’m also very sorry, but I’m very touched by your sincerity in coming to me, so I’m here to explain this matter personally. I hope you can understand my difficulties.” Ding Shan said.
Mr. Li nodded. “Of course I understand, Miss Ding. You’re being too polite, and I’ve even troubled you to make a trip here. We may wait for an opportunity to work with Miss Ding. It’s fine; even if we can’t work together, we can treat this meal as making friends. Let’s eat first!”
Ding Shan’s way of doing things and her attitude were perfect. President Li couldn’t find a single flaw, and he couldn’t even think of an excuse to pressure Ding Shan.
The meal was quickly finished. Ding Shan stood up slowly and picked up her handbag. “Thank you for your warm hospitality. I’ll take my leave first. I hope there will be more opportunities to work with the Golden Sun.”
“Miss Ding, I’ll see you off.” Ding Shan had just walked to the door when she smelled alcohol. She turned her head and saw that Wang Shi was already approaching her.
Wang Shi had drunk a lot of wine, and his cheeks were red, looking a little tipsy.
Under the influence of alcohol, Wang Shi became even more unbridled. His eyes kept looking at Ding Shan’s chest, and his expression was extremely wretched.
Xiao Zhao was furious. Seeing that Wang Shi was about to pull Ding Shan’s hand, she immediately pushed Wang Shi away. “What are you doing?”
“Stinky b*tch, get lost!” Wang Shi had long found Xiao Zhao an eyesore. He grabbed Xiao Zhao’s arm and threw her to the ground. Then, he turned his head and pulled Ding Shan’s arm, not letting her leave.
Ding Shan knew that this was going to be troublesome. She turned to look at President Li and the other man, only to find that the two men had no intention of stopping Wang Shi.
Seeing that Ding Shan was staring at him, Mr. Li smiled innocently. “Miss Ding, Mr. Wang wants to send you off. Please give him this chance.”
Xiao Zhao looked at Mr. Li in disbelief. She thought President Li was a reasonable man, but she didn’t expect that this man was pretending all along!
Xiao Zhao got up from the ground and was ready to fight Wang Shi. As long as she could still breathe, she would never let Wang Shi take Ding Shan away!
Just as Xiao Zhao was about to rush forward, Ding Shan stopped her with a look.
Ding Shan slowly gave up her struggle and turned to Wang Shi, “Let go; you’re hurting me.”
Although Ding Shan had only put on light makeup tonight, she was still gorgeous. Wang Shi felt as if his body was about to float to the sky when she looked at him.
Seeing that Ding Shan had stopped struggling, he thought that Ding Shan would give in. He was ecstatic and immediately let go of Ding Shan’s wrist, but his eyes were still fixed on Ding Shan to prevent her from running away.
