The Male Lead Conquest System Fell in Love with Me

Chapter 12

In the morning while getting styled, Yin Zhizhi saw a few entertainment news articles about herself from the airport incident yesterday, where fans mistook her for Xiao Xiangyun.

The news that Ji Huan was her manager had also been released.

Ji Huan wasn't well-known in the industry, but fans knew him to some extent, and many had even called for Ji Huan to manage their idols.

[Yin Zhizhi's resources are really good, getting the best manager as soon as she returned to the country. I bet we'll see her often from now on.]

[No problem seeing her often, Yin Zhizhi is quite pretty. A former child star from a celebrity family with great acting skills.]

[Did anyone else notice Ji Huan holding Yin Zhizhi's hand? Speaking of which, is Manager Ji not planning to debut? That face and figure are too good!]

[Sister above, I felt the same way. If I didn't read the comments, I would've thought he was Yin Zhizhi's boyfriend. He looks so good and was even holding her hand. I'm a little jealous.]

[Good looks mean justice, let's ship them for now!]

[Am I the only one who finds this awkward? Ji Huan was Xiao Xiangyun's former manager. This time when he encountered Xiao Xiangyun's fans, they mistook Yin Zhizhi for Xiao Xiangyun. Is Manager Ji into that type of artist?]

[The comment above is toxic, it's not that complicated. Yin Zhizhi and Xiao Xiangyun are clearly not the same type of artist. One is innocent, the other is a refined lady.]

Yin Zhizhi being innocent was probably the biggest misconception about her held by the public.

Yin Zhizhi's hairstyle looked great, her long hair was curled, her makeup was exquisite, and she wore a certain brand's dress.

Ji Huan had arrived early. He didn't need to style his hair as he always kept it groomed very well. He just changed into a suit for the banquet.

Yin Zhizhi remembered what the system told her, that she needed to be sincere in order to complete the mission.

"Ji Huan."

The girl suddenly called out his name.

Ji Huan was startled, then realized she was calling him. "What's wrong?"

"Are you really not considering debuting? You look like you could play the male lead in a modern drama just by wearing this suit," she teased him.

"If I debut, you won't have a manager anymore."

"Oh right, then you'd better not debut. Never debut, and always be my manager." She lifted her dress and walked over to him. "Can we take a selfie together?"

Ji Huan didn't like taking photos, but he saw Yin Zhizhi's potential, and if all went well they would work together for years. Ji Huan still hoped to maintain a good relationship with Yin Zhizhi.

"Okay."

"You're too tall, I can't take it."

He was nearly six feet three inches tall, and without her high heels on she only came up to his chin.

Ji Huan took her phone and extended his arm to take a selfie.

A handsome guy and a beautiful girl, in a suit and dress, the scene was perfect harmony - a visual feast for fans of good looks.

At the banquet, Yin Zhizhi held Ji Huan's arm as they went to meet some directors and screenwriters. Ji Huan didn't just bring her to the banquet for a movie role, but also wanted to see if she could get other opportunities.

Even for celebrities, resources didn't just fall into their laps. You had to show your face, socialize, and let these people see you. When they needed someone for a role, they might just remember you and give you that opportunity.

"Ji Huan, Yin has had the gift of acting since she was young. I have a feeling that in a few years, you'll have brought out another Screen Queen."

Ji Huan humbly said, "Yin has a modest gift, but talent is only the basic condition. What she needs is opportunity. Director Xu, I heard you have several films in preparation. If there are any suitable roles, please consider her."

"I'll consider it."

Yin Zhizhi realized that Ji Huan's business skills were truly formidable. He spoke eloquently and seemed acquainted with everyone.

After standing for over an hour, Yin Zhizhi gently tugged on Ji Huan's sleeve.

Ji Huan looked down. "What's wrong?"

"I'm going to reapply my makeup."

"Go ahead, be careful. Call me if anything happens."

Ten minutes later, Yin Zhizhi finally understood why Ji Huan told her to be careful.

Even the daughter of a Screen Queen wasn't immune to other people's envy.

Indeed, Yin Zhizhi was cornered at the restroom entrance.

A man in his forties, slightly overweight with narrowed eyes, was an investor. Yin Zhizhi had met him earlier when she followed Ji Huan to mingle.

"Yin, I heard you haven't taken any roles yet. I just invested in a film that's missing a lead actress. Are you interested?"

Yin Zhizhi calmly replied, "Talk business with my manager."

"What's there for two grown men to talk about? For you to act, you need to like it. Let me be more direct with you, Yin. By age, you should call me Uncle. Uncle cares about his niece the most. As long as you like me, Uncle can give you any role, even invest in you as the lead actress."

Hearing him call himself Uncle made Yin Zhizhi want to vomit.

She really wanted to slap him.

Though she didn't have her vines anymore, she still had hands and feet. She could tear him apart, kick him!

Yin Zhizhi stepped back, but the investor immediately blocked her path. "Don't go, Uncle wants to talk business."

"Are you sure you want to block me?"

"What?"

He was the one obstructing her path. She didn't intend to hit him.

Yin Zhizhi kicked him in the most vulnerable area with the pointed toe of her high heel.

The investor instantly turned pale and couldn't even scream.

Yin Zhizhi lifted her dress. "Goodbye."

That felt great. Yin Zhizhi happily returned.

After taking a few steps, she turned back to look - specifically at the women's restroom.

Someone was hiding in the restroom, probably saw her kick that guy.

At the banquet, Ji Huan noticed that one investor was missing - the one who had looked at Yin Zhizhi with ill intentions earlier.

"Not good."

Ji Huan cursed under his breath and left.

......

"Are you okay?"

Suddenly, the system's voice appeared in her mind, startling Yin Zhizhi and almost causing her to sprain her ankle.

"System? You're awake during the day."

"What happened just now?"

The system seemed to have just woken up, speaking slowly and leisurely.

If no one asked, it would have been fine. But since someone did, Yin Zhizhi's melodramatic side emerged. "System, someone bullied me just now..."

Her tone carried a sense of grievance as she told on the person.
