Xia Li's skills were indeed extraordinary; her seemingly slender limbs contained surprising power.
With one hand, she steadily supported Bai Xiaoxiao, who had almost missed a step.
The four cups of hot tea she held in her other hand remained perfectly still, without even a single drop spilling out.
This agile display made Wang Congcong's eyes light up, and he couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "Impressive!"
His gaze shifted back and forth between Bai Xiaoxiao and Xia Li.
The former was wearing an exquisite Lolita dress.
The latter displayed a level of competence that belied her fragile appearance.
Looking at Chen Yating next to him with her delicate makeup, Wang Congcong suddenly felt bored.
He gave Jiang Cheng an "I get it" look.
He nudged Jiang Cheng with his elbow: "Not bad, hiding a beauty in a golden house."
Hearing this, Bai Xiaoxiao awkwardly adjusted her expression.
Pretending to be composed, she slowly walked down the stairs.
Then she flashed her signature sweet smile: "Hello there~ Principal Wang."
After staring at Bai Xiaoxiao for a few seconds, Wang Congcong replied somewhat belatedly, "Aren't you Little Crispy??"
"Yes, I am Little Crispy. Thank you for your previous support."
Previously, when Bai Xiaoxiao played honor of kings with Jiang Cheng and Wang Congcong, Wang Congcong had also given her tips.
Seeing another Girl catch Wang Congcong's attention, Chen Yating, behind him, looked like she didn't want to be left out and wanted to join the conversation.
But before she could speak, Xia Li led in two more Girls dressed in Internet Celebrity styles.
As soon as they entered, Jiang Cheng recognized Peng Shiqi among them.
Upon seeing her, Jiang Cheng's brow immediately furrowed.
Why is she here? No way??
As soon as Peng Shiqi entered, the atmosphere in the living room changed subtly.
Especially Chen Yating, sitting next to Wang Congcong; her gaze instantly became defensive.
She was wearing the currently popular'sweet and cool' style.
A short, waist-baring black knit top paired with high-waisted wide-leg jeans and platform Martin boots made her legs look long and straight.
Her slightly curly chestnut hair was loosely draped, with a few strands of smoky blue highlights that flickered under the light, looking both playful and fashionable.
Her makeup was exquisite but didn't look forced, with a slight upturn of her eyeliner creating a lazy charm.
Seeing everyone seated, the other Internet Celebrity greeted Wang Congcong a bit stiffly.
The Girl accompanying her introduced Peng Shiqi to Wang Congcong somewhat shyly: "Boss, this is my best friend Peng Shiqi."
Wang Congcong's eyes lit up, and he said enthusiastically, "Peng Shiqi! The top-tier TikToker with tens of millions of fans, the 'National Girlfriend'! I've scrolled past your Hanfu transformation video many times."
Peng Shiqi nodded politely upon hearing this: "Hello, Principal Wang."
"Come, come," Wang Congcong turned to Jiang Cheng, "This is my Streamer Li Man, and this is her friend Peng Shiqi. I thought it would be more lively at the bar later, so I invited them along." He then turned to the two Girls: "This is Jiang Cheng, call him Brother Cheng."
Bringing one official girlfriend plus several female Internet Celebrities was always Wang Congcong's standard setup.
Jiang Cheng was aware of this.
However, what surprised Jiang Cheng was that Peng Shiqi was among them.
But judging by Wang Congcong's introduction, this was clearly his first time meeting Peng Shiqi as well.
After Wang Congcong finished the introduction, the two immediately nodded and greeted Jiang Cheng politely.
It was clear that Peng Shiqi didn't recognize him.
Although he had been on the hot search a few times before, it was pulled down instantly every time.
Even photos of him on the internet were all met with a 404 error.
So strictly speaking, Jiang Cheng's privacy was quite well-protected.
When the contract was signed, it was Xie Bing and Shen Zheng who stepped forward.
This was actually their first time meeting.
Jiang Cheng didn't point out that he was her boss either.
Seeing that Peng Shiqi didn't greet Jiang Cheng specifically, Bai Xiaoxiao couldn't help but observe Jiang Cheng's expression.
So what Jiang Cheng told her that day was true.
Besides Qiao Yinyin and Zhou Ying, she was the third one in the company.
Thinking of this, Bai Xiaoxiao couldn't help but curl her lips.
Although Jiang Cheng didn't explicitly say anything, the way he looked at her was anything but innocent.
Given their current interaction, Peng Shiqi would find out about Jiang Cheng's identity sooner or later.
So she might as well act a bit more sensible and generous.
Bai Xiaoxiao smiled and took the initiative to wave at Peng Shiqi.
"Sister Shiqi, hello! My name is Bai Xiaoxiao, I'm very happy to meet you here!"
Seeing this, Peng Shiqi also smiled and replied, "Hello, I'm very happy to meet you too!"
Peng Shiqi didn't think much of Bai Xiaoxiao's initiative.
After all, she was considered quite popular in the female Internet Celebrity circle.
Many other Internet Celebrity Girls knew her.
Bai Xiaoxiao covered her mouth and chuckled, then continued, "Sister Shiqi, you might not know me well yet, but actually, we're in the same company!"
Hearing this, a look of surprise appeared on Peng Shiqi's face.
Internet Celebrities usually filmed videos in different cities.
They rarely had the chance to gather for meetings or exchanges.
After signing with Xingchen Media, she mostly dealt with the staff and the company's operations team.
She had some impression of other famous influencers in the company, like Qiao Yinyin, Zhou Ying, and Li Jiaqi.
But she didn't pay much attention to other less famous, minor influencers.
Peng Shiqi quickly put on an apologetic expression and said:
"Oh, so that's how it is! I'm really sorry, I rarely go to the company."
Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise appeared on Wang Congcong's face.
He at least knew Bai Xiaoxiao was an influencer from Jiang Cheng's company since he'd played a few games with her and Jiang Cheng.
But Wang Congcong really didn't know that Peng Shiqi had signed with Xingchen Media.
Looking at Jiang Cheng, Wang Congcong asked, "Is this Shiqi from your company??"
When he said this, Peng Shiqi was confused again.
Being with Wang Congcong today was indeed because of Li Man.
The two of them had traveled to Chengdu together to film videos.
As it turned out, Li Man said at noon that Wang Congcong had invited her to dinner; originally, Peng Shiqi didn't want to come.
But Li Man told her not to be nervous, as Wang Congcong's girlfriend was also there.
So she came along.
Could it be that this Handsome Guy in front of her was also an influencer from the company?
This "top-tier sweet Girl" was looking at Jiang Cheng blankly, completely unaware that the man before her was her big boss behind the scenes whom she had never met.
"Ah, so you're also my colleague."
After she said that, Wang Congcong burst out laughing.
