Chapter 609 – Benefits Of Having A Die-hard Fan.
Soon after getting ready, Li Xue left the house, taking her car to the Glamour World.
Knocking the door of Lin Xinyi's office on the 11th floor, Li Xue pushed the room's door slightly before greeting in a small cheerful voice. "Good afternoon, Sister Xinyi. May I come in?"
Lin Xinyi was working, sitting on her chair behind her desk, when she heard the girl's voice come all melodically. Lifting her head, she slightly nodded, and for once, then paused. Her eyes scaled the girl for more time. It was already her third time meeting her, yet every time she noticed felt like there was something new or hidden she was seeing in her.
And this time, it was her smile of beauty while her eyes had the glimmer of confidence—something common when looked on but very hard to carry on.
"Good afternoon! Come on, take a seat first", Lin Xinyi said, shrugging off her trance at the side before gesturing the woman to come inside the room.
Li Xue also nodded. Coming inside, she got a chair across the woman before sitting down. Lin Xinyi also didn't say much. Picking up the intercom receiver from the side, she said something to the person on the other side, and soon there came a knock at the door.
"Come in," She said, accepting the request before the door opened to reveal a small height young girl with shoulder-length hair and specs on her nose. Dressed in plain white pants and a cute pink hoodie, she looked like a girl who has recently completed her university days.
Li Xue smiled at her appearance. It looked sweet and blissful, much like, filled with positive energy and hope. "Sister Xinyi, this …"
"This is Xiao Meng. She would be your assistant from now on and would be accompanying you everywhere, also in today's event. Since you will have her with you always, I advise you not to depend on any other outsider," Li Xinyi explained. Her intentions all clear to let Li Xue know that in no way was she allowed to repeat the things she has done in the past.
Li Xue nodded, understanding the concern of her manager. She smiled slightly in assurance, then turned back to look at the girl, who looked lost in her own trance.
"Xiao Meng!" Noticing the same dazed expression on the girl, Lin Xinyi snapped her out of her trance.
As if she was dragged out from her dream, Xiao Meng got frenzied at the call, immediately bowing down in both apology and greeting. "Oops, I am really sorry. I almost forgot to greet you. Good afternoon, Sister Xinyi and Sister Xue. I am Xiao Meng. Please look after me".
Seeing her like that, Li Xue gave a small laugh before nodding in appreciation. "Hello, Xiao Meng. I hope you will also look after me. I will stay under your care from now on".
The young girl instantly gaped in surprise as she widened her eyes animatedly. But then, holding her composure, she quickly nodded in cheerfulness. "Yes, yes, Sister Xue. I will try my best not to disappoint you".
Li Xue slightly raised her brows at her amusing yet enthusiastic attitude as she turned to glance back at her. Then again, reverting her eyes to the young girl, she reciprocated her cheerfulness with her own smile.
"Okay, Xiao Meng, go and check if the things are ready for Li Xue, back in the make-up room. I still has some things to discuss with her, and once we finish, she would come there to get ready for the things." Lin Xinyi delegated the work, and the young nodded to it and left. But that was not until she turned once again back to look at the Li Xue with a smile.
Lin Xinyi shook her head and then, turning to Li Xue, asked her back to get comfortable in her seat.
"Xiao Meng will be your assistant from now on, but if you feel like uncomfortable because of her, we can look for someone else."
"It's okay, Sister Xinyi. She looks rather cheerful than bothersome. I have already started liking her. Is this her first job? She seems pretty young and enthusiastic about it," Li Xue noted, not forgetting the animated behavior of the girl from before.
Lin Xinyi shook her head again. "Though it's her first job, that is not making her so excited. Instead, it's you."
"Me?" Li Xue asked, getting a little confused.
The woman nodded in yes, before continuing, "Yep, it's you. She has been idolizing you for long years now if six years count in that then".
"Huh? But I wasn't there in the industry for the last five years, lest all my social media accounts were also deactivated." Li Xue was even more intrigued. She never knew she still has someone supporting her even after leaving the career until now.
"I guess that's whom we call loyal and die-hard fans. You still have some, and among them, it was hard for me to find one capable of accompanying you every time." Lin Xinyi said before letting out a breath of exhaustion.
Li Xue paused before simply asking. "Why?"
The manager did not answer at once. Instead, she took some time before saying, "It's not wrong to have a fan stay at your side every time. But you can take it to be more helpful, given they almost know all your preferences from before and will also be able to look after you better than anyone else. Apart from that, don't forget it's tough to find one of such kind from the crowds, especially when someone keeps their connection all dead from the industry for such long years".
Definitely, Li Xue could never doubt that. Of course, she need not ask how tough it must have been. She could already guess it. It must be nothing less than finding the thinnest needle out from haystack. Now, she gets to understand what Lin Xinyi actually meant last time by saying she would help her find a good assistant. It must have always been in her plans.
But was she so confident that even after been dormant for so many years, she would still be having fans? Maybe the experience of the woman in the field was enough to make her such perfect assumptions.
