He took her up the side ladder from the garage, crossed the first-floor lobby and went into the elevator on the other side.

The other side was very close to the management center and the performing arts center. Many stars and managers were coming and going. It was Xia Ling’s first time seeing such big stars in real life and she was extremely curious. She tugged on her driver’s sleeves and said, “Uncle Li, Uncle Li, look, that Long Dapeng over there, many of the little children in my orphanage loved watching his shows! And her! Her! Sister Jasmine! I love hearing her sing!”

She ran towards the female star and looked up to her with a tiny face as delicate as a flower. “Sister Jasmine, Sister Jasmine! Can you give me an autograph?”‘

“Whose child is this?” The female star called Jasmine was unprepared to have someone suddenly stop her for an autograph in her own company. She was a little surprised. “Little sister, why are you here? Where’s your family?”

“I’m here to look for someone!” Xia Ling smiled sweetly. She thought of how she was here to give a surprise to Brother Pei but did not say who she was looking for. “Sister Jasmine, I love listening to your songs. Your song <Sunflower’s Secret Diary> is really good. Especially that line, ‘Do you still remember / That promise that bloomed in our golden memories’. It’s so beautiful, I know how to sing it too!” she said while humming a few sentences.

“Wow, little sister, you sing well.” Jasmine was very surprised and smiled. “With this standard, you won’t have a problem being a singer in the future. Hey, are you interested in entering the Imperial Entertaining Training Camp?”

“What’s the Training Camp?” Xia Ling batted her eyelashes.

“You don’t even know what’s the training camp?” Jasmine laughed again and exchanged glances with her manager. Who on earth was this child? She must have a special identity to be able to break through the layers of strict guards of Imperial Entertainment and go deep into the building. However, how could she not even know what the Training Camp was? It was incredible.

The manager had already taken out a pen and a piece of paper. He smiled. “Jasmine, quickly sign your name for your little fan. We have a schedule late, don’t let Reporter Li of <Star Entertainment Weekly> wait.”

Jasmine took the pen and paper and signed it for Xia Ling. She smiled and waved to her. “Little girl, goodbye.” She then turned around and followed after her manager with a distinguished air of elegance.

“Sister Jasmine is so kind...” Xia Ling hugged onto the piece of autographed paper preciously and smiled happily.

The driver caught up with her while panting hard. “Miss, please don’t run around. Imperial Entertainment is so big, what if you fall or lose your way?” If anything was to happen to her, his job would be lost.

Xia Ling did not care. She raised the piece of autographed paper for the driver to see. “Uncle Li, look, Sister Jasmine signed an autograph for me. It turns out she’s an artiste under Brother Pei’s company. Can I come to see her often from now on?”

The driver smiled painfully. “You’ll have to ask Sir.”

“Okay!” Xia Ling nodded. “Let’s hurry and find Brother Pei! Oh yes...” She carefully folded Jasmine’s signature and handed it over to the driver. “Keep it for me and return it back to me at night when we’ve reached home.”

Her hand was still holding the bookmark she wanted to give Brother Pei and it was inconvenient for her to hold onto the signature.

The driver kept the paper for her.

She was in a good mood and jumped forward to the elevator before turning to ask the driver, “Uncle Li, Uncle Li, what floor is Brother Pei at?”

With the driver’s old arms and legs, he could not outrun her. He panted and said, “Go to the 26th floor first...” Pei Ziheng’s office was on the top floor of the main building on the 28th floor, but the direct elevator on the garage side was under maintenance. The elevator on the management center side could not directly reach Pei Ziheng’s office level, so they had to go to the 26th floor first before climbing up the stairs.

Xia Ling found the 26th-floor button and pressed it lightly.

Several Imperial Entertainment employees gathered continuously and waited with her.

The little girl was so beautiful and was dressed like a little princess. All of the employees couldn’t help but give her a few more glances. “Who is this?” Someone couldn’t resist asking her companion. “She’s so beautiful. Is she a new child star?”

“I don’t know.” Her colleague shook her head. “She’s really beautiful.”

Xia Ling’s hearing was good. She could hear them talking about her and she raised her head to smile brightly at them.

“Wow, look, look, she’s smiling at us!”

“She’s so cute!” The bunch of staff started a commotion.

Xia Ling’s mood was extremely good. She has started to fall in love with Imperial Entertainment. The uncles, aunties, brothers, and sisters here were all so good. “Ding!” The elevator arrived and Xia Ling carefully protected the dried flower bookmark in her hands and got onto the elevator.

The other employees also got on.

Suddenly, there was a voice coming from outside the elevator—”Wait!” Along with the voice, a hand stretched out diagonally to stop the elevator door. “You, you all come out, come out! Miss Li Bingyu is here!”

“What, she’s here?”

“Miss Li Bingyu...”

There was some unwillingness in their voices, but they still swallowed their reluctance and got off the elevator.

Xia Ling stood still and did not move. She glanced outside curiously and saw from a corridor not far away, a woman dressed extremely elegantly and gracefully walk towards them. A few staff members revolved around her. The woman had on light, delicate makeup and looked flawless. Her high heels click-clacked on the ground without a hurry.

Xia Ling had seen her on television before. “It really is Miss Li Bingyu. She’s even more beautiful in real life.”

The little girl was surprised and amazed.

Outside the elevator, a staff member who had just got off reminded her quickly. “Little girl, get off quickly. Miss Li Bingyu doesn’t like sharing the elevator with others.”

Xia Ling was surprised again. She widened her eyes. “Really? Then she can just take the next elevator.”

The voice of the little girl was as clear as a silver bell. Li Bingyu also heard her words. She frowned and walked quickly towards the elevator. The crowd watched anxiously. Little girl, who did you think Miss Li Bingyu is. She is Imperial Entertainment’s most popular female star as of now, a Queen! Only others gave way to her, how could she give way to others?

“Little girl, get off quickly!” The staff members persuaded anxiously. They were very fond of this beautiful and lively girl and could not bear to see her offending Miss Li Bingyu.

The person who had stopped the elevator just now glared at Xia Ling. “Who are you? Get off, get off, quickly! Don’t delay Miss Li Bingyu’s schedule. Can you afford to take responsibility?” He was Li Bingyu’s manager, and would often use his connections to intimidate people and pretend he was high-class. Thus, he did not put the little girl in his eye.

Xia ling was unhappy. She said stubbornly, “No!” She had always had such a temper and did not listen. When someone bullied her, she simply could not endure it.

The manager was also unhappy. He glared at the driver beside her. “Who are you, is this your child? Bring her away quickly, don’t get in the way. Seriously.”

He had mistaken the driver for a regular employee of Imperial Entertainment.
