186 Little Taste of Heaven

One Week Later

The shooting of Sweet Memories turned out well as the rest of the casts and crews did their best. The promotional videos and pictures were already being prepared to be released.

Since Director Han planned to enter the movie for the Golden Phoenix Award, he wanted to make sure that it would sell in the cinemas. He really had that feeling that the film would be a huge success.

"Great job, everyone! We will have our celebration tonight!"

"Woah!! Thank you, Director Han! Finally, after months of shooting, we'll be able to enjoy a Karaoke Night!" one of the crew giggled with excitement.

"I'm really excited! Do you think Luo Daming will sing later?" another one whispered to her side.

"There's only one way to find out. We need to be there!" The women giggled as they prepared to go.

"Tss! These women!" Tang Xie laughed while listening to the women. She turned her head towards Meng Lulu, "Lulu, congratulations on your first movie. I know it will be successful. Who knows? You might even win an award."

"Stop teasing me, Xiexie!" Meng Lulu laughed before she happily walked towards Xu Jia Li, "Li-jie, let's sing together later."

"Yeah, sure, Lulu." Xu Jia Li smiled as she nodded.

"Thank you, Li-jie! I heard that our movie could make it to the Golden Phoenix. You know, if that happened, it will be my first time attending the prestigious ceremony," Meng Lulu's eyes sparkled as she sighed.

"Well, I guess you deserve it. You really work hard, Lulu."

"You're too kind, Li-jie!" Meng Lulu hugged Xu Jia Li's arm before she whispered, "Ahm, Li-jie… do you think CEO Si will join us?"

"Why did you ask?"

"Ahhm… nothing, Li-jie. I just think that since he's one of the producers, he will also join us tonight. I heard that Producer Zhang will come."

"It's really hard to say, Lulu."

Meng Lulu smiled awkwardly before she said, "I want to sit beside you later, Li-jie."

Si International Corporation

Si Weimin stopped reading the papers on his desk when he heard Wang Guo entered the room. He put the pen down and locked his fingers together. He looked at him intently before he asked, "Guo, any news about what Jia asked you to do?"

"It's been covered, boss. The young madam is right. There's really a huge problem going on inside the Zhou Corporation. My intel prepared the information and I already sent them to the young madam last night," Wang Guo said proudly. The smug look on his face showed how well he did Xu Jia Li's order.

"Is she your boss now?"

"…"

"If I didn't ask, I wouldn't even know."

"…"

Wang Guo's face turned pale, the beads of sweat formed on his head as he looked at the serious Si Weimin, 'What did I do this time?' This devil sure knew how to ruin the moment. Just earlier, he was so happy that Xu Jia Li called and thanked her. How would he know that the young madam didn't tell anything to this devil?

"Did the cat get your tongue?"

"Ah w-well, b-boss…" Wang Guo felt like he would have a heart attack if the devil continued to look at him that way.

"I'm only kidding. Great job!"

Wang Guo's heaved a sigh of relief as he clutched his chest. He looked at the devil who seemed like nothing happened, 'How can he tell that with such a straight face? Tss!'

Sky Light KTV Bar

"Miss Xu, please do sing for us!" One of the casts yelled after Assistant Director Chua sang.

The entire casts were inside the KTV room while the crews were on the other room. They had been requesting for Xu Jia Li to sing.

"Sing! Sing! Sing! Go, Miss Xu! Sing for us!"

"I agree, Miss Xu. I love to hear your voice." Producer Zhang licked his lips as he stared lustfully at Xu Jia Li. He had been eyeing her since they arrived at the place. He couldn't suppress the desire he felt in his groin.

He couldn't believe that he was sitting far from her when he specifically mentioned to Director Han that he should be sitting beside Xu Jia Li. He clucked his tongue as he ran his eyes all over her body.

His mind was racing as he admired her lasciviously, 'That body is to die for. I just want a little taste heaven, can't I?'

Xu Jia Li smiled apologetically before she said, "I'll sing later. Why don't we ask, Mr. Luo instead?"

"Oh, yes! Senior Luo, please sing for us!" Meng Lulu squealed with excitement as she clapped her hands.

'Who would want to hear that brute sing?' Producer Zhang clenched his jaw as he gulped down his beer. He tapped his right foot on the floor as he observed Xu Jia Li. His eyes focused on her cleavage, 'I will never let this night pass that I won't have a taste of your luscious body, Xu Jia Li!'

"Wow! You're so great, Senior Luo!" Meng Lulu clapped her hands enthusiastically.

"Thank you, everyone!"

Once Luo Daming finished singing, Li Yun also obliged. All the while, his eyes never leaving Xu Jia Li. He wanted to sit beside her but Xu Jia Li didn't allow him to. He clenched the microphone when he was reminded of that night when Xu Jia Li called Si Weimin, honey. The pain was too much but his love for her never faltered. She was still the one his heart wanted.

He gazed full of love at Xu Jia Li while he sang. The song was so sad that even the casts shed tears after he finished, "Well done, Li Yun! Such great voice! Now, I think it's the Asia's Multi-Talented Queen's turn!"

"I want a duet with Li-jie!" Meng Lulu stood up as she uttered with anticipation.

"Don't ruin it, Lulu! Let Miss Xu sing it!" one of the casts derided. Everyone laughed except Xu Jia Li.

"It's okay. I really want to have a duet with Lulu, anyway." Xu Jia Li smiled as she held Meng Lulu's hand. They both walked in front. Xu Jia Li let Meng Lulu picked the song of her choice before they sang together.

Xu Jia Li's voice was excellent like an angel's but Meng Lulu's talent in singing was mediocre. Still, everyone was having a great time so no one even noticed that Producer Zhang was no longer inside the room.

"Do it immediately," Producer Zhang handed a stash of cash to the waitress before he grinned maniacally, "I'll triple that after the task is done."

"I'll do my best, Producer Zhang. Just keep your promise that you'll help me enter the entertainment industry."

"No problem. When did I ever take my words? Just do it like usual, huh?"

"The same room?"

"You know me too well," Producer Zhang laughed as he pinched the waitress' breast, "I'll be waiting."
