Chapter 148: Bidding (1)

Mu Sihan heard Lan Yanzhi’s words and proudly raised his sword-like brows, wearing a look of pride as if he were somehow honored. “Don’t even ask who’s the woman I have my eye on.”

Lan Yanzhi clicked his tongue. “Still acting all tsundere. But Fourth Brother, that young lady Nan really isn’t interested in you at all. This is just a one-sided crush.”

If there hadn’t been other senior members present, Mu Sihan would have punched Lan Yanzhi right in the face.

Mu Sihan’s deep black eyes fixed on the woman on the stage, unable to look away for a long while.

Damn woman!

He so badly wanted to push her against the wall and kiss her fiercely.

“Fourth Brother, how much sponsorship are you planning to give Lin Wanyue’s show later?” Lan Yanzhi asked.

Mu Sihan’s long fingers tapped on his knee as his black eyes narrowed mysteriously. “Who said I’m sponsoring?”

Lan Yanzhi looked puzzled. “If you’re not sponsoring, why would you come yourself?” Suddenly realizing, “Fourth Brother, are you here because of that young lady Nan? But didn’t you promise Lin Wanyue?”

Mu Sihan leaned back against the sofa, his tall and cold figure relaxed, his flushed, seductive lips curling into a wicked smile. “Who says my little kitty isn’t more charming?”

Lan Yanzhi was left speechless. A one-sided crush and still throwing out love confessions? Could he be any more cruel?

...

Nan Yao saw that Nan Zhi had become the center of attention. Her eyes flickered as she glanced at Lin Wanyue beside her. “Sister Wanyue, Nan Zhi has completely stolen your spotlight! What if she manages to secure sponsors even stronger than our show later?”

Lin Wanyue, the top star of the station, was used to being the center of all eyes. Naturally, she wasn’t pleased that Nan Zhi had taken her thunder. Her face darkened, and she sneered coldly, “She’s just good at sweet-talking. No matter how skilled, her last season’s food show was a flop.”

“Just now quite a few sponsors applauded and cheered on the spot. I’m worried—”

Lin Wanyue snorted coldly. “Compared to me, she’s still green! When it comes to securing exclusive title sponsors, I’ll go up on stage and stand beside her to compete through bidding. You’ll see how I crush her!”

“Sister Wanyue, you’re so smart. Once you take the stage, you’ll subtly remind all the sponsors how poorly last season’s food program did in ratings!”

...

After Nan Zhi finished hosting, she learned from Han Mo about Lin Wanyue’s demands and pondered them in her heart.

Yan Hua hadn’t come over yet. If she stood on stage with Lin Wanyue to bid, perhaps all her efforts just now would have been for nothing.

Sure enough, as soon as Lin Wanyue took the stage, she was met with thunderous applause and cheers.

When it was Nan Zhi’s turn, only sparse, scattered claps followed.

Nan Zhi maintained the basic poise expected of a host. Despite the awkward atmosphere, her smile remained, elegant and calm, radiant with charm.

Soon, Lin Wanyue’s side started bidding for the show. Many sponsors competed eagerly, and although Lin Wanyue was pleased, she didn’t hear any bids from Mu Sihan’s company. Anxiety crept into her heart.

One video company had already bid fifty million. If Young Master Mu were to bid, it would surely not be less than one hundred million!

Securing an exclusive title sponsorship worth one hundred million would cement her position at the station beyond challenge!

But to Lin Wanyue’s surprise, Young Master Mu did not bid. Ultimately, the exclusive title sponsorship for Dream Singing True was won by a cosmetics brand under the Fu Corporation for eighty million.

Nan Yao in the audience was overjoyed. Young Master Shaoxiu truly did not disappoint her! The one he loved most was still her!

Han Mo clearly hadn’t expected Dream Singing True’s exclusive sponsorship to be only eighty million. She summarized briefly and announced, “Now, it’s time for Food Wins the World. Starting bid for exclusive title sponsorship is twenty million. Please place your bids!”

A heavy silence fell over the room.
