Yun Liuli's endorsement deal with the AG company came suddenly...
Actually, Fang Yan had, after seeing Jacob Bellucci upload the collage photos of Yun Liuli, went to talk with the AG company because she had sharply sensed an opportunity!
After the AG Company used Yun Liuli's photos, they felt that it was quite a good idea to have the couple endorse their brand. After all, Yun Liuli was rather popular now, so they agreed to the proposal.
Early on, the AG Company had announced a press conference to reveal their new spokesperson. Since they urgently wanted to finalize the deal, they needed Yun Liuli to attend the event tomorrow.
Xing Qiaoman intended to take no action for now. She told Yun Liuli not to repost Jacob Bellucci's Weibo post and directly confess to the relationship. It was best to allow the public's curiosity in Yun Liuli and Jacob Bellucci's relationship to manifest until tomorrow's press conference. She said that if she were to confess that she was dating Jacob Bellucci during the event, the effect would be better.
However, Yun Liuli, who was under her wing, didn't happen to be an obedient artist. Just as Xing Qiaoman finished telling Yun Liuli not to make a move for now and respond, Yun Liuli raised her phone before Xing Qiaoman, blinking her large and watery eyes...
"I've already reposted it on Weibo..."
Xing Qiaoman was speechless.
What sins had she committed for her to have such a disobedient artist under her wing?
Not only did Yun Liuli repost it, but she also added a line: My darling's shots are incredible!
Such an adorable tone wasn't in line with Yun Liuli's public persona!
Why should she transform into an adorable girl before her beloved?
She ought to be a top-scoring student! She ought to be high and aloof! She should, like her university classmates described her, be otherworldly!
Xing Qiaoman didn't even feel like rebuking her. It was too late even if she told Yun Liuli to delete the Weibo post now, hence she could only raise a hand to her forehead.
Then, just in case, she instructed, "In the future, even if it concerns your boyfriend, can you tell me before you act? I'm your manager! Don't let me know after you take action, okay?"
Actually, Xing Qiaoman wanted to ask Yun Liuli why she couldn't learn from Lu Tianyu and stop causing trouble.
Yun Liuli indeed became rather obedient after that. After returning to the country, when she saw Gu Qingcheng, who came to pick her up from the airport, she happily told her fans that her boyfriend was there to pick her up before leaving.
After signing the contract, Yun Liuli returned home and applied a mask before sleeping, preparing to turn up at the press conference tomorrow in a refreshed state before filming started.
In the middle of the night, when Yun Liuli woke up, she realized that Gu Qingcheng wasn't by her side, so she put on her bathrobe and went out of the room. To her surprise, she saw Zhou Yuchen sitting on the sofa in their apartment, staring at Gu Qingcheng seriously with his different colored eyes.
Yun Liuli was confused. She wrapped herself firmly with her bathrobe and asked, "Zhou Yuchen, what are you doing here?"
Zhou Yuchen looked towards Yun Liuli, his throat vibrating. Resisting the urge to stand up, he agitatedly replied, "I'm here to ask Mr. Jacob Bellucci something... regarding my mother!"
Yun Liuli looked at Gu Qingcheng, perplexed.
Only then did Gu Qingcheng turn his head slowly and glanced at what Yun Liuli was wearing. He said, "Zhou Yuchen's mother... is the deceased French supermodel Maritian Tautou. In my teens, I had the honor of taking a few sets of photos for Miss Maritian Tautou..."
Yun Liuli paused in surprise. She walked to Gu Qingcheng and sat down next to him. Gu Qingcheng pulled her into his embrace and helped her fix her sleeping robe. The young lady curled up her legs and hugged her knees to her chest naturally."So... what do you wish to ask him, Zhou Yuchen?"
Zhou Yuchen's hands clenched slightly by his sides.
When Maritian Tautou died, Zhou Yuchen was only three. He had few and vague memories of Maritian Tautou, so he could only deepen his blurry impression of Maritian Tautou according to what his nanny had told him, attempting to find traces of her existence.
Zhou Yuchen suddenly found out today that Yun Liuli's lover was the Jacob Bellucci that his mother had mentioned in her burnt diary. He finally couldn't resist it and came to the Cloud Top Condominium, wanting to find out about his mother's matters from him, to hear about a side to his mother different from the stale stories his nanny had told him before!
What he wanted to know about was the mother who shined on the runway.
Actually, before coming, Zhou Yuchen had an internal struggle. That was why he hesitated and only showed up at this hour.
He was unwilling to lower his head and beg Yun Liuli's boyfriend. But, ultimately, his curiosity about his mother defeated his pride, so he came.
"Mr. Jacob Bellucci..." Zhou Yuchen looked towards Gu Qingcheng."I want to know... everything you know about my mother. Can you tell me?"
When Gu Qingcheng became Jacob Bellucci, he had obtained information about every single person Jacob Bellucci had ever been in contact with, including those who were deceased!
Also, he had seen the diaries that their organization's "Jacob Bellucci" had kept all these years!
However, unfortunately, Jacob Bellucci took photos of Maritian Tautou before their organization's "Jacob Bellucci" took over the role.
This matter was mentioned simply in Jacob Bellucci's life story. As for the details... no one knew about them.
However, according to Jacob Bellucci's personality, he wouldn't casually chat with people he worked with.
This was the reason Jacob Bellucci wasn't discovered after he was replaced by a different person.
Even when they replaced him a second time, no one noticed.
Gu Qingcheng hence said to Zhou Yuchen, "I'm very sorry, but my collaboration with Miss Maritian Tautou happened a long time ago. Moreover... I don't have the habit of chatting during work! Miss Maritian Tautou was also an extremely professional model, so without the need for excessive communication, she was able to perform before the cameras. Our interaction... was nearly zero!"
Zhou Yuchen was both surprised and not so surprised.
Actually, before coming, Zhou Yuchen had looked up interviews in which Jacob Bellucci was mentioned by the models he previously worked with before and thus knew that Jacob Bellucci was especially quiet. If it weren't for his occasional tips to the models on their postures and expressions when they weren't showing him what he wanted, they would have thought that Mr. Jacob Bellucci couldn't speak.
Zhou Yuchen was very disappointed.
He had thought that he could at least hear a little bit about his mother's past from Jacob Bellucci...
"Then, do you know anyone who's familiar with Zhou Yuchen's mother?" Yun Liuli turned to ask Gu Qingcheng upon catching Zhou Yuchen's disappointed expression."If there is... can you introduce that person to Zhou Yuchen?"
