Chapter 65 by ryuxenji
The starters in the event, including Tang Yi-Bai, returned to City-B that night. Tang Yi-Bai then went with Coach Wu to have a meal with a senior executive from the China division of the Swiss-brand watch. The endorsement contract had already been signed — there might be some promotional activities in the near future, and he would have to go for some photo shoots for advertisements. The other party had been very interested in Tang Yi-Bai even before meeting him, and they were extremely satisfied after meeting him, so the discussion on the terms of the contract went very smoothly.
The executive had brought Tang Yi-Bai a pair of couple watches. That was a new product they were just about to release onto the market. They had initially intended for Tang Yi-Bai to wear it when he appeared in the Winter Championships, but due to some delays on the European side, the watches had not arrived in time. By the time the executive received them, the Winter Championships had already begun, so that plan could only be laid to rest.
Still, they had no regrets. Tang Yi-Bai was a hot commodity — there would be plenty of opportunities for public appearances in future. Furthermore, they had put a lot of careful planning into their advertising strategy this time. Though the primary product they were launching this time was a couple's watch set, they had only signed on Tang Yi-Bai. This leaves the audience wondering: Tang Yi-Bai is wearing the male piece, then who would wear the female piece?
All the ladies with fantasies of Tang Yi-Bai — while they may not be able to actually catch Tang Yi-Bai, they could at least wear the match to his couple watch...
Tang Yi-Bai himself was unaware of all these subtleties. He saw a couple's watch and naturally thought of a loving couple. As for who should receive the female piece to his set, he had a very clear goal.
The next day, Tang Yi-Bai took the two watches to go see Yun Duo.
Yun Duo had already notified the team leaders about Tang Yi-Bai's visit, so her colleagues were not at all surprised by his arrival. However, they were still excited, especially the female staff. They surrounded him asking for photos together; Yun Duo could only watch from the periphery. In the end, Tang Yi-Bai had to say, "Excuse me, ladies, I need to go for an interview now, and I have some other things to do as well later."
"Ah, you're so busy. Sorry for taking so much of your time."
"What a polite child!"
Child... Tang Yi-Bai sweatdropped. He glimpsed Yun Duo secretly laughing at him and his eyes narrowed.
"If there's a chance, let this big sister introduce a girlfriend to you!"
Tang Yi-Bai refused flatly. "Thank you, but there's no need."
Yun Duo walked over and led Tang Yi-Bai away under the jealous eyes of the crowd. Yun Duo thought, they were already so jealous knowing that she was the reporter interviewing Tang Yi-Bai, what if they found out she was Tang Yi-Bai's girlfriend? Would they do away with her? qaq
The two of them walked into a meeting room, and just as Yun Duo finished closing the door, Tang Yi-Bai suddenly pushed her up against it. An unexpected kiss pressed down on her just like that, locking her lips.
What a rogue move...
Yun Duo's brain was turned into mush instantly, and she struggled hard.
Tang Yi-Bai nibbled on her lip for a bit before backing off. He licked his lips and chuckled in a low voice, "This is punishment."
Yun Duo pushed him away further with a red face. She mumbled, "Be professional!"
The meeting room had already been prepped — documents, a voice recorder, even including the coffee she had half-drunk.
