My Youth Began With Him

Mrs. Su immediately said, "A distant relative recommended her to me, saying she's her sister's daughter. The girl is from the dancing academy in Jing City. Look at her figure and pretty face."

"She's really pretty," Huo Mian praised sincerely.

"Do you think… Yu will like her?"

"Um… I can't say." Seeing that Mrs. Su wanted to set up the girl with Su Yu, Huo Mian didn't dare to give her opinion.

"After Zeng Rou left, Yu began his bachelor's life again. I told my relative that since the girl hasn't found a job yet after graduating this summer, we could put her in Yu's company as a trainee."

"You want her to enter the entertainment circle?" Huo Mian was surprised.

She remembered Grandpa Su had once said he didn't want Su Yu to marry an actress.

"No. It's just a ruse for her to get close to Su Yu. She won't take any commercial acting roles."

"Oh. I think it's a good idea." Huo Mian nodded, thinking it might work.

"Mian, you're smart. Please think of a way for me to talk to Yu about it. You know him; he's always impatient when I mention this to him. If I tell him my plan, he won't agree to it. How can I get the girl into his company?"

"Get her into Imperial Star?"

"Yeah." Mrs. Su nodded.

"Why don't you let the girl apply for a position in the company? His company accepts applications all year round."

"No, it would be too difficult for her. She might fail the interview."

"Um… Why don't you call the human resources department and ask them to go easy on her?" Huo Mian said.

"No. To make sure every applicant has a fair chance, Yu has employed a stern woman to head the human resources department and she won't do me any favors. If she reports the incident to Yu, all my efforts would be in vain."

"Right… It's really difficult." Huo Mian couldn't come up with a better plan.

"Mian, I need you to do me a favor."

"What's it, Auntie?"

"How about this? I heard An and Yu received your younger sister when she came back from abroad. Yu would do anything for you. So I wonder if you can tell Yu that the girl is your distant cousin and ask him to do you a favor."

"Oh… Um… Do you think it's a good idea? If Su Yu finds it out…" Huo Mian didn't like to lie.

"It will be fine. If he finds out, I'll take all the consequences," Mrs. Su promised.

Huo Mian suddenly understood that Mrs. Su was trying to make use of Su Yu's feelings for her to get the girl into Su Yu's company.

Huo Mian didn't like being used and didn't want to lie to her friend.

But she could never refuse a request from Aunt Su.

One reason was that Su Yu had saved her life; the second was that Huo Mian was afraid Mrs. Su would think she was selfish and didn't want Su Yu to have a girlfriend.

Many girls have this mentality; they would have boyfriends but won't directly refuse other boys. Whenever the latter are about to give up, they'd show these guys a glimmer of hope. Those types of girls were scumbags.

Huo Mian didn't want Aunt Su to think she was a scumbag and she truly hoped Su Yu could find his other half.

She didn't want him to be single when he was old.

Despite her misgivings, she still nodded.

"Okay. Auntie, I will do it."

"Great. Mian, you're a good girl." Mrs. Su was very pleased.

She pushed the girl's file into Huo Mian's hands.

"Get familiar with her information. I'll have her come and see you this afternoon. When you're off work, you can take her to have dinner with Yu and introduce her to Yu."

"So soon…" Huo Mian was caught by surprise.
