Chapter 6: Trust Is Always Based on Time.

“All right! That’s enough. You’d better see Bai Yihan and thank him for his trust. Bai Yihan just signs the contract with Starry Cosmo so his schedule shouldn’t be full. By the way, Bai Yihan prefers to develop in the direction of film. Perhaps he is still selecting scripts at this period. You have never worked with such a big hot. Mi Chen, Remember to communicate with him as much as possible and try to work well with him.”
“Thanks so much, Director Kang!” said Mi Chen with a bright smile on her face.
Kang Mao nodded slightly. He really had a good opinion of Mi Chen and hoped that the young girl could afford the dramatic changes in the glitzy circle.
Kang Mao then reminded Mi Chen that Bai Yihan was going to leave now so she’d better meet him in the parking lot quickly. As for the identity card, he added that Mi Chen would receive it next day.
Mi Chen got to the parking lot by elevator. However, the parking lot of Starry Cosmo was too large that she couldn’t see him at all. Furthermore, she forgot to ask Kang Mao how to contact with Fang Chengye or Bai Yihan. Gee, how could she find Bai in that condition?
Mi Chen walked around the parking lot for a long time and finally a familiar voice called her attention.
“Mi Chen…”
The voice was clear and bright, echoing in the large parking lot, just like the flowing water that came from a high place. As Mi Chen turned around, she saw a black nanny car in the distance and in front of it was a man, who was leaning against the front part of the car with a slight smile.
“Bai…Bai Yihan.”
Mi Chen was a bit nervous in the elevator this morning, so she didn’t see him clearly. Bai Yihan wore a light brown knit outerwear, a plaid shirt and a pair of dark blue jeans. He stood there cross-legged, which set off his tall and elegant figure.
Bai Yihan looked down at his watch, his eyelashes slightly downcast. His leisurely gesture could always make people feel warm in their hearts.
“It’s noon now. Come on, go to have lunch with me.”
Mi Chen still felt that she was just having a dream and what happened to her couldn’t be true. She stepped forward unsteadily as if she was walking in a cotton field. Finally, she came up to Bai Yihan.
“Mr.…eh…Mr. Bai, I… I really appreciate that you could choose me to be your cosmetician…”
“Oh, well, that’s all right. I really like your cosmetic skill.” Bai Yihan opened the door of the car and sat in, patting the seat next to him to let Mi Chen sit there.
Mi Chen quickly got on the car and only then she discovered that it was Fang Chengye who was driving the car. There were only three people in the big nanny van. Mi Chen couldn’t find anyone else.
“Oh, Mr. Fang, aren’t you Mr. Bai’s agent? Do you drive the car yourself?”
Hearing her words, Fang Chengye quickly make a wretched expression, touched his chest with his hand and complained bitterly, “I have no option. My boss is too poor to hire a driver or an assistant. So I have to do all the work on my own.”
Mi Chen smiled. She knew that Fang Chengye was just making a joke.
The car left the parking lot and headed for the street. Fang Chengye told many jokes on the way, which made the atmosphere active so Mi Chen also didn’t feel so embarrassed gradually.
They eventually stopped and got off the car in front of a private clubhouse. Mi Chen knew that Bai Yihan was the focus of those reporters. If he chose an ordinary restaurant, maybe even how he used chopsticks would be totally reported to the public soon. The decoration of the private clubhouse was well-designed. There were so many modern pictures on the wall of the corridor. Mi Chen looked at them carefully one by one.
Fang Chengye couldn’t help making fun of her, saying, “When will we have lunch if Mi Chen keeps walking at such a slow speed.”
Mi Chen smiled slightly and quickly caught up with Bai Yihan and came into a small compartment.
Fang Chengye patted on Mi Chen’s shoulder uttering, “Just enjoy yourself! It doesn’t matter how ugly you look when you have meals. Because I must be much uglier than you at that time!”
Bai Yihan didn’t say a word. He just lowered his head smiling slightly.
It was a nice compartment. Three sides of the room were huge glass jars, in which various fish were swimming, making people feel like they were staying in the sea.
While Mi Chen was looking around in amazement, Bai Yihan slowly questioned.
“Mi Chen, you asked me why I didn’t have a driver or an assistant, right?”
Mi Chen turned her eyes to Bai Yihan. His eyes were filled with warmth but Mi Chen still felt that there was something hard for her to understand in the eyes too.
“Because both driver and assistant will be a part of my life and they will witness my happiness and sorrow. If I can’t trust them, I would not let them join in my life so easily.”
The shape of Bai Yihan’s lips corner was perfect. His eyes as well as his eyebrows were still decorated with warmth. But Mi Chen suddenly felt cold at that moment.
“It should be the same with your cosmetician, right?”
Mi Chen raised her head.
“Yes, it’s true. I need a cosmetician, so I think of you. Your attitude towards your work attracted my attention at the music ceremony. I believe you deserve my trust. If there must be a new comer in my life, I will choose you as you are reliable enough.” Bai Yihan began playing the chopsticks in his hands and then added, “I know you will be a bit disappointed hearing my words. Listen, I’m not the perfect person as in your imagination.”
Mi Chen recalled the love affairs of Bai Yihan which happened several years ago.
