Chapter 73 - I am not a Mistress!

Wang Meili looked at him and said, " Hmm...I think it's fairly clear. The four girls who performed in the end; Song Ai, Pan Lan, Sun Ya, and Lai Yi. As you can see, they are good at singing and performing, but they don't have the X factor. There is nothing in them that could attract the audience. Also, they are not fit to be the idols, even after being trained for 4-5 years, they are the same. There is no change in them." She said but her words made Xu Nuan frown.

These are the four girls in which she saw the potential. Unlike others, they are not pretty faces and don't have the S-shaped figure but they have the skills. 

Their voices are unique and stable which can put any current girl group to shame over their vocals. She was planning to make them the next 'The Queens' but she was saying that they are not fit to be the idols?

Her temperature started to rise slightly as she started to have the itch to speak.

" Hmm. I also think the same. They are not pretty and attractive as an idol. I also think we should eliminate them." Mr. Tang who was sitting in the middle tapped his pen on the table as he said.

Xu Nuan turned her head and was about to say something when the vocal coach Du An who was sitting beside her spoke, " But Sir, as you can see that the three girls, Song Ai, Sun Ya, and Lai Yi, they have the incredible voice and they are capable to be the lead vocalists. Most importantly their voices were stable even when they were dancing. I have seen their growth in these past few years and I think they should debut this year. Also, the other girl, Pan Lan, I have seen her rapping and you can see how smooth and clear she was while rapping. We should consider their talent first, not their looks."

Xu Nuan nodded in agreement hearing his words.

" Yes sir. Song Ai and Sun Ya also write their own songs. I have checked their drafts a few times and they write very well." The songwriter Ye Ning also added.

Wang Meili frowned and said, " Mr. Du An, you're just looking at things from one perspective. Talent is not everything. These girls do not have the looks to be launched as the idols. They are fat and do not have anything charming in them. How can they attract the audience?"

" You guys haven't looked at the materialistic things before that's why the company didn't work. The previous groups launched by you guys also disbanded because of your poor management." She commented which caused everyone's expressions to fall.

CEO Tang was not bothered and sitting there like it has nothing to do with him.

" Talent is not important?"

There was a long silence after Meili's words, which was broken by Xu Nuan's cold voice.

Everyone turned their heads to look at her. At first, everyone assumed her as a cute girl with a bubbly personality because of her petite cutesy looks but her icy cold tone made everyone surprised.

Xu Nuan looked towards Meili and said, " Ms. Wang, what made you say that talent is not important for an idol? I think you don't know what it takes to be an idol. The singing skills, dancing, and the engaging skills come first and the looks later. If you look at the physical appearance, then I am sorry. This way you will only produce the pretty dolls and not idols." 

" An idol is someone who can do everything, singing, dancing, and rapping. That's why an idol group consists of people who are assigned to be a vocalist, dancer, rapper, and visual since you can't find everything in one person. But when you're finding such amazing talents in just 4 girls, you want to kick them out just because of their looks?" 

CEO Tang raised his brows when he heard her words. He wasn't expecting her to retort to Wang Meili like this. Since she has a cold personality, every new employee gets scared of her and doesn't dare to voice out their opinions.

Wnag Meili gritted her teeth and scoffed when she heard her words. 

" Xu Nuan seems like you don't know your position yet. You are here to just watch the evaluation and have no right to make any comments. So just shut up and sit quietly." Her expressions darkened as she said while glaring daggers at her.

" Hah! Came here to sit here? Ms. Wang, I am sorry to interrupt your thoughts but I am not here to just sit and watch. I am here to manage the group which is going to be launched and I will be their official manager. So I think I also have a right to give my opinion here." she snapped at her when her patience lost.

She has put her year's salary and job on stake for this project and she wants her to stay silent? In her dreams!

Wang Meili frowned and said, " What? Manager? Mr. Feng has indeed said that you're going to manage the girl group but do you think you can do that? You have no experience and this project is very important for our company. So just stay out and learn. Don't be so overly ambitious. You can work as my assistant but leading the girls yourself? Erase that thought from your head." 

"-_-"

Xu Nuan picked up the water bottle and gulped down the whole bottle in one go. She never felt her blood boiling so much.

She let out a deep breath and smirked, " Oh really? Well, I am sorry to break your imaginary bubble but I am not going to assist you. I came here to work as the manager or nothing." She said straightforwardly without backing away.

" If you have any problem with me, you can deal with Mr. Han. He is the one who 'personally' hired me for this position." She said nonchalantly. She bit her lips after saying this when she remembered that he had said to not use his name.

' I pretend as if I didn't read that message.' she calmed down after making the excuse in her mind.

"You…!" Hearing Han Zihao's name, Meili's face turned red. She has thought that this girl is someone related to Feng Sheng. But she was not expecting her to take Han Zihao's name here.

Tang Hu also pursed his lips when he heard this. Just like Meili, he also didn't know that she is someone that Mr. Han has hired. 

" How can we believe your words? Also, don't you feel sorry for others? You came here because of your petty tricks and was shamelessly saying that Mr. Han hired you." When Meili couldn't bear Xu Nuan and her sharp tongue, she attacked her personally.

Xu Nuan shook her head and said, " Why would I feel any shame? If I had done anything shameless, then I wouldn't come here to work as a manager only. I would have taken up the position of CEO or Vice CEO at least. Stop spreading rumors and don't look at me as if I am some mistress. Because believe me, you're gonna regret this so much in the future." 

' If I was in a relationship with him, do you think you can dare to talk to me this way? Well, it won't be that bad to be Mrs. Han if we look at a few advantages.' she thought inwardly.

"-_-"

"-_-"

Everyone was shocked hearing Xu Nuan's words. Generally, people get embarrassed or feel upset whenever their character gets questioned. But this girl retorted to Meili's words with more strong facts. No one was expecting this young one to have such a sharp tongue.

"You…!!" Wang Meili's complexion turned red hearing her words. No one has talked to her like this before. But this new girl who hasn't even received her ID card was acting as if she is the boss here.

'Who does she think she is?'

" Okay, stop it." Tang Hu said which caused Meili to shut up. He sighed and said, " We have one last group performance to evaluate as well. Let's see that and decide this later."

Wang Meili gritted her teeth but nodded anyway. She knows that Mr. Tang will take the right decision. She scoffed and looked at Xu Nuan with a mocking gaze.

"-_-"

Xu Nuan shook her head and leaned back on her chair. 

'What kind of people Han Zihao has chosen? He has such a bad taste in people. No doubt, he hasn't accepted my feelings yet.
