The Arranged Marriage - Chapter 9

When Zhang Lihua entered the company building, Xu Chunhua headed towards her direction. Xu Chunhua saw the two scary men behind Zhang Lihua.

“Lihua are those your bodyguards?” Xu Chunhua was fond of calling Zhang Lihua, Lihua. When Zhang Lihua asked her why she didn’t like to call her Zhang Lihua, she simply said that she preferred calling her Lihua.

Zhang Lihua nodded.

“They look scary” Xu Chunhua said in a low tone, hoping that the bodyguards won’t hear her.

“Have you informed Manager Ling about my return?” Zhang Lihua asked as they headed for the elevator.

“Yes, I have told her. She has already prepared your contracts for you, you just have to pick the one you like” Xu Chunhua explained some details of the contracts to Lihua. When she was done, they had already arrived at Manager Ling’s office. The bodyguards waited for Zhang Lihua outside.

Manager Ling was hardworking. She had been in charge of some successful models and actresses. But Zhang Lihua was the only person who caught her attention quite well. Lihua was beautiful, determined, elegant and had everything a model was supposed to have, the long legs, hɨps, beauty, elegance and perfect body.

“Manager Ling” Zhang Lihua greeted her as she sat on the chair opposite her.

“Welcome back Zhang Lihua” Manager Ling brought out some documents and gave them to Zhang Lihua

“The period of time when you were away, I received invites from a few companies. I have gone through the contracts and the companies terms and conditions aren’t bad. But I would have preferred you to go for the audition of Glamour Perfume. They just released a new product and they are going to be shooting a commercial for it.”

Glamour Perfume was one of the top companies producing Perfumes in Beijing. Their products were popular in America, South Korea, France and many other countries. Zhang Lihua saw it as a big opportunity but Glamour Perfume auditions were quite tough.

“Zhang Lihua I know you are thinking about the tough audition but this is a big opportunity” Manager Ling said as she noticed Zhang Lihua’s hesitation

“Thank you Manager Ling, I will go for the audition, even if it’s going to be tough, I will try my best.”

Zhang Lihua got to were she was in the entertainment industry without any special connection. She depended on her abilities and not other people’s favours or wealth. Even when she was given an opportunity by rich men, she rejected them.

Manager Ling smiled, she liked the determined part of Zhang Lihua.

“The theme is elegance, beauty and loyalty, the edition will hold in their company’s hall next week Tuesday by 9am”

“Okay Manager Ling”

“Okay, I will inform you if there’s any change” Zhang Lihua and Manager Ling chatted for some time before Zhang Lihua left with Xu Chunhua.
