Chapter 1030: Chapter 1030: I Have No Objections to Relying on ‘Around the City’ to Make a Comeback Chapter 1030: Chapter 1030: I Have No Objections to Relying on ‘Around the City’ to Make a Comeback “Knock, knock, knock–” the door to the makeup room was suddenly struck.

“So soon?” Rong Yan put away her phone, thinking it was Estelle and the others returning.

She got up and walked over to open the door, and was greeted by the visitor’s trademark casual attire, “Ms. Dina?”

Apart from Hanks Dina, there was also a woman in a wheelchair whom Rong Yan recognized from “Around the City”; it was Chu Xi, the lead actress of the show.

“Nice to meet you, Miss Chu,” she said, extending her hand politely in front of Chu Xi.

This was Chu Xi’s first encounter with the rumored girlfriend of that man, and despite being a woman herself, she was impressed. She straightened her casual, lazy sitting posture and placed her hand over Rong Yan’s, smiling, “There’s a saying in Zeka, ‘Better to see once than to hear a hundred times.’ Although it’s my first time meeting Miss Rong, I’ve heard your name many times.”

Rong Yan thought she meant seeing lots of her sensational news online, especially since she had been highly popular recently due to the slanderous attacks by Jiang Meiqi.

After a polite handshake with Chu Xi, she let go and turned to the main guest of today, “Ms. Dina, would you like to come in for a glass of water?”

“There’s no need for water,” Hanks Dina responded, unhurriedly pulling out an MP3 player from her bag, “I came here to return this and to let you know that I’ve arrived, hoping my trip won’t be a waste of time.”

Rong Yan received the MP3 player with a confident smile, “Thank you for taking five minutes to listen to it. Don’t worry; I won’t let your trip be in vain.”

Gazing at her brimming confidence, Dina, for some reason, couldn’t help but try to take her down a notch, “I was actually planning to throw it in the trashcan, just couldn’t find one. Later during a meal, I incidentally mentioned the harassment incident at the airport, and someone suggested I give it a listen, so I reluctantly spent five minutes on it. So, your thanks aren’t needed; I had no intention of listening.”

“But you listened, didn’t you?” Rong Yan, undiscouraged by the comment, said with bright, confident eyes, “Regardless of the reason, you still spent five minutes on me. I can slightly flatter myself by thinking that you were indeed touched by me at the airport, enough to gain interest in me and grant me another five minutes after the appointed ten.”

Dina was rendered speechless, her sharp Western features becoming more imposing with age. When she spoke, her words were exceedingly harsh, “You’re still as presumptuous as ever.”

“I’ll take that as a compliment on my confidence. Thank you~” Rong Yan blinked, not upset in the least.

Dina, seldom frustrated, felt utterly powerless facing Rong Yan’s deft handling, realizing for the first time that her own sharp tongue was insufficient.

“Don’t celebrate too early. I am only satisfied with the melody part in your MP3. Melody means little; if the full version doesn’t satisfy me, I can still give up on you anytime. I’ve looked into your situation back home, and to speak frankly, it’s a mess! I have no objection if you want to turn things around with ‘Around the City’, as long as you have the capability. I don’t care about the external criticism towards you. On the other hand, if you lack the capability and waste my time with all these meaningless antics, you can forget about collaborating with me ever again.”
