Chapter 1458: Chapter 1458: Formidable Woman

"Don’t doubt me, I’m telling the truth," Luo Yuqing huffed, "Who doesn’t know what you men think? You wish you could claim every beautiful woman as your own."

"You can’t say that about me!"

"Still won’t admit it?" Luo Yuqing pinched Luo Ziling’s arm again. "If you didn’t think that way, then why are you, while dating Yang Qingyin as your girlfriend, still keeping ambiguous relationships with other women? Don’t tell me you’re completely innocent with Lin Lan, Ouyang Feifei, and Chen Xiaoyi, let alone Ouyang Huihui."

Hearing Luo Yuqing mention these women, Luo Ziling was a bit annoyed and embarrassed. "If you keep talking about this, I’m not going with you."

"Hmph, hit a nerve, didn’t I?" Luo Yuqing said angrily, "Honestly, dating someone like you is exhausting. You have to compete with so many women. Even if I won, I’d still have to guard against others eyeing you. Luckily, you turned out to be my brother. That solved the biggest headache of my life."

"I’m leaving," Luo Ziling was furious and prepared to walk away.

Luo Yuqing, of course, wouldn’t let him go. She grabbed his arm again. "Don’t be mad. You’re the dream guy in everyone’s eyes. You can’t just get angry at beautiful women. Hmph, fine, I won’t say anymore. But I know for sure my guess today is spot on. If you don’t want to deal with it, let me handle it."

"Then you handle it," Luo Ziling said, too annoyed to bother with her anymore.

"I’m going to get Zhao Lijing and Yan Ying to work for me," Luo Yuqing said, then burst into giggles. "You come with me and give me some confidence."

"You’re afraid of them?"

"Not afraid. It’s just that having you with me is more intimidating. Right now, they know your status isn’t ordinary, Luo Da Shao, and they might already have feelings for you, hoping to marry into wealth. So, of course, they’d try to win over me, their potential future sister-in-law."

"What nonsense," Luo Ziling rolled his eyes, exasperated.

"Hehehe," Luo Yuqing laughed again. "Once I fully adjust to thinking of myself as your sister, I might actually want you to conquer more beautiful women. That would make me proud. I think your mom probably feels the same way. Otherwise, she wouldn’t let you maintain such unclear relationships with so many women."

"If you keep spouting this nonsense, even if I cook dinner tonight, I won’t invite you. I’ll let you starve!"

Seeing Luo Ziling’s frustrated and angry expression, Luo Yuqing laughed even harder. "Alright, alright, I won’t tease you anymore. Come on, let’s go meet Yan Ying," Luo Yuqing said, taking his arm again and dragging him to the car.

The car headed to a nearby teahouse, where Yan Ying was waiting in a private room.

Like Zhao Lijing earlier, Yan Ying had also dressed up meticulously today, showcasing her personality—or rather, her uniqueness.

While Zhao Lijing had a formal, career-woman outfit that highlighted her precision and urban professional image, which suited her personality, Yan Ying had gone for a traditional look. She wore two braided pigtails, styled like a student from the Republic of China era, exuding purity and giving a refreshing impression.

"They’re not dressing up for me; it’s all for you, Mr. Tall, Rich, and Handsome," Luo Yuqing whispered in Luo Ziling’s ear after greeting Yan Ying and sitting down separately. "Like peacocks, they’re flaunting their feathers in front of you."

Luo Ziling didn’t reply. He simply glared at her in frustration.

Luo Yuqing paid no mind, grinned mischievously, and then composed herself to face Yan Ying. "Miss Yan, I’m curious to know your stance on joining Qingniao Media. Was it out of obligation, or did you willingly join? Also, what are your views and plans for the future?"

"I joined Qingniao Media voluntarily because I felt it would give me more security for my future," Yan Ying replied calmly, as if anticipating such a question. "I hope to have more opportunities to star in TV shows or movies in the future, and I won’t let you down."

Luo Yuqing looked at Yan Ying with a teasing expression. "You know, being an actor has its perks. Whether you’re working or speaking, you can quickly slip into a performance mode, making it hard for others to tell if you’re being genuine or just acting."

Neither Luo Ziling nor Yan Ying expected Luo Yuqing to say that. Luo Ziling, who was nibbling on a snack, froze and stared at Yan Ying.

Yan Ying, equally caught off guard, looked visibly awkward. Unsure how to respond, her face flushed.

Luo Yuqing didn’t press further. She merely smiled faintly at Yan Ying, then picked up her tea and took a slow sip.

"Mr. Luo, Miss Luo, I know you look down on us entertainers..." Yan Ying hesitated but finally spoke.

Her words were promptly interrupted by Luo Yuqing. "We don’t look down on you. On the contrary, because we value you, we made it a point to meet you alone today. To be honest, we’re still young and currently rely on our parents’ support. But we refuse to lead mediocre lives and want to carve out something for ourselves. That’s why, before we act, we need preparation and capable people we can recruit. So, I hope Miss Yan can be honest with us."

Yan Ying appeared surprised. She glanced at Luo Ziling and then at Luo Yuqing, unsure of what to say.

"If one day, you had the opportunity to achieve a highly desired goal, would you be willing to sacrifice more for it?" Luo Yuqing pressed on, pointing at Luo Ziling as she interrogated Yan Ying. "For example, becoming his mistress without any official status."

Luo Ziling nearly choked. He couldn’t fathom Luo Yuqing’s logic but decided not to interrupt her. He wanted to understand her game plan and see how Yan Ying would respond.

Yan Ying was, of course, stunned by Luo Yuqing’s directness. She froze in place, at a loss for words.

Without rushing her, Luo Yuqing simply watched Yan Ying in silence.

Eventually unable to withstand Luo Yuqing’s piercing gaze, Yan Ying lowered her eyes.

After some thought, she finally came up with an answer she deemed acceptable. "If... I developed feelings for Mr. Luo and he could help me achieve my dreams, perhaps I would willingly be his mistress."

"Hmm, I respect that answer," Luo Yuqing smiled and, without further prying, moved on to declare her decision. "You’re an honest person, and we’re willing to place our trust in you. Soon, I’ll be taking over some management roles at Qingniao Media, but I lack capable people by my side. Would you be willing to help me?"

Yan Ying hesitated briefly before nodding with little deliberation. "Of course."

"Good, I hope you’ll show me your dedication and loyalty!" Luo Yuqing smiled.

Yan Ying nodded as well but seemed to have misunderstood Luo Ziling’s intentions.
