Chapter 67 This Mung Bean Soup Is Different
Chapter 67 This Mung Bean Soup Is Different
Pinching her nails into her palm, Hannah doesn't feel any pain. Instead, she is worried about Queenie.
Zander is a calculating man. He pretends to fool around all day, but no one can understand what he
wants, as if he doesn't care about anything, but he just plans such an event, even finding out Queenie's
family background.
Gavin family behind Queenie is the major shareholder of Southway Group in England. Southway Group
is a major player in the domestic food industry. Walk in a supermarket casually, you will find that most
of the beverage and snack are produced by food companies of Southway Group. Queenie is the only
girl in the Gavin family, born as the apple of her parents’ eye. She went to an aristocratic school abroad
when she was a child. But she had dreams, so she returned to China to apply for the film school after
graduating from high school, and then entered the entertainment circle, hiding her identity.
After Queenie comes out of the restroom, she doesn't dare to delay too much, so she takes the trail
back to the filming place.
Since the machine is not yet prepared, the filming hasn't started yet, so it's still early for her to come
back.
Jessica stands in front of the van, waiting for her for a while. Seeing her back, she waves from a
distance. "Why are you away for such a long time?"
"It hasn’t started, right? What’s the hurry?"
"Someone is waiting for you," Jessica winks at her. Following her, Queenie sees a new face beside the
van. She is a very delicate woman. Seeing her, she smiles naturally, giving her a familiar feeling
inexplicably.
"That's Hannah, the designer of Shahbaz Jewelry." Jessica's deliberately lowered voice comes to her.
Queenie frowns, "Are people from Shahbaz Jewelry sticking-plasters that you can't shake them off?
Zander just left, and why comes another?"
"Please, can you keep your voice down?" Jessica rolls her eyes at her, "The designer is here in person.
What more do you want? Even if you don't want to accept, please be good, otherwise I really can't be
your agent anymore. I have offended almost every insider because of you." Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Queenie immediately makes concessions. Being an actress for many years, Jessica is the only one
who has never abandoned her, more close to her than her families. She really has to listen to her
words.
Seeing that Queenie hasn't come for a long time, Hannah is not anxious, standing in front of her van
with a thermos, waiting patiently, until Jessica drags Queenie towards her.
"I'm sorry, Hannah. Queenie just went to the restroom, and she’s back now. Don't stand outside. It's too
hot. Let’s chat in the car."
"Okay." Hannah nods very politely and follows into the van.
"That’s our first meeting so I don't know what’s Miss Gavin’s favorite. Since it’s hot, so I take the iced
mung bean soup."Hannah puts the thermos on the table, "Have a try. It can relieve the heat."
"Thanks for your gift," Queenie says indifferently and straightforwardly. "I'm not the kind of person who
likes to beat around the bush, and I don't have much time to talk at the moment. If Miss Hannah is
coming for jewelry endorsements, we’d better not waste time. There are thousands of stars, why would
Shahbaz Jewelry only asks me for cooperation?"
Jessica on the side is stiff, and she keeps winking at Queenie, but she doesn't even see it.
Hannah is surprised, "I really don't know about the cooperation. Miss Gavin means you won't
cooperate with our company?"
"Yeah, don't you know?"
Hannah shakes her head. "I hear that the company has contacted with Miss Gavin, so I want to meet
you in advance. If the endorsement is finalized, the next batch of jewelry will be tailor-made for Miss
Gavin. I don’t expect this to be the case. Sorry, my news may be delayed."
Queenie's expression eases a little, "It's okay. You don't know that."
Knowing that Hannah's intention is not to negotiate cooperation for the company, but it’s a
misunderstanding, Queenie is obviously much better, not as resistant as before.
Hannah doesn't sit for long. After a few words of greeting to break the ice, she takes the initiative to
leave without a word about endorsement contract, which makes Queenie relieved.
After she’s gone, there is a long exhale from the van. Jessica breathes a sigh of relief, "Dear Queenie,
are you trying to scare me to death? If you talk with the cooperator like this in the future, I really can't
help you clean up the mess."
Queenie shrugs and unscrews the mung bean soup in front of her, says casually, "You are gutless. I
have already said that I will not accept jewelry endorsements, and Shahbaz Group can't do anything to
force me, right? A cup, please."
Jessica reluctantly gives her a cup, "You are still in the mood to drink. At the end of this year, I’ll resign
after I settle the bill. You can find another agent by yourself. I can't do it anymore."
Jessica has been said about resigning for at least three days a week, and Queenie is also used to it.
She spoons a cup of mung bean soup and hands it to her, "Drink some mung bean soup to calm
down."
She just drinks with the thermos. After a sip, she changes her face as if she couldn't believe it, staring
at the mung bean soup, as if to see a hole in the thermos.
"What's the matter?" Seeing her expression, Jessica is a little flustered. "What's the problem?"
"Different," Queenie lowers her head and takes another sip. When she looks up again, she shows great
astonishment and doubt, with a trembling voice, "This mung bean soup is different."
"What's the difference?" Jessica is startled by her pale complexion, "Queenie, don't scare me."
On the other hand, after leaving the crew, Hannah has been wandering in the London Film City. She
knows which stores are most frequented by celebrities and which stores are owned by stars.
It's not because she is interested in studying these, but because Queenie's a model worker. In three
hundred and sixty-five days of a year, Queenie even wants to stay here for three hundred and sixty
days. Since she comes here to see Queenie for many times, she gets familiar with the city.
She has anticipated Queenie's resistance early, not to mention that she’s just a small designer of
Shahbaz Jewelry with no reputation at all. How could she be able to persuade Queenie, a stubborn girl,
to promise the endorsement?
But she is not in a hurry. After shopping for a while, she stops at a smoothie shop, orders two
strawberry smoothies, and specifically asks the waiter to make another one later. Then she wanders
around and looks at the tourists outside basking in the big sun.
The phone rings at this time. Seeing the caller ID, Hannah presses the answer button. "Hello?"
"Hannah, this is Jessica, Queenie's agent.”
"I know, I save the business card you just give me."
Jessica smiles awkwardly and stammers, "Hannah, are you free now? Queenie has finished her scene,
and she wants to talk to you about some personal matters."
"Yes," Hannah says calmly, "I haven’t left yet. At the Small Coconut Smoothie Shop, right now."
