Reborn as a female internet celebrity in a county town

Chapter 73 I haven't left yet.
Lin Lang felt that the alcohol was indeed making him a little tipsy. His alcohol tolerance had always been average; he could only drink about half a jin of baijiu at most.

He just didn't understand what Bing Ning was up to.

So he said, "Sister Bing is definitely beautiful, that's universally acknowledged."

"How come it's universally acknowledged?" Bing Ning was still leaning on Lin Lang's shoulder.

"I represent the world's perspective."

"How do you represent it?"

"If I didn't have a broad perspective, could I have created an internet celebrity with millions of followers?"

"Too."

Bingning always found it interesting to talk to Lin Lang; he always managed to convince you wholeheartedly.

She changed her position, wrapped her arms around Lin Lang's neck, and continued, "I know that Big Fish Media has conditions for signing female internet celebrities, but I'm a special case, so I can't agree to your conditions."

"I think Sister Bing is very attractive."

Lin Lang was already feeling a little dizzy, and his brain was a bit slow to react at this time.

Bingning whispered, "I'm happy to be appreciated by you, but... do you know why An'an calls me sister-in-law?"

"I'm not sure about that, she didn't say either."

“I got engaged to one of An’an’s cousins ​​seven or eight years ago, when I had just graduated from high school.”

"I see... Then why is Sister Bing all alone now?"

"The two families originally agreed to get married after I graduated from university, but when I was a sophomore, An'an's cousin had an accident after driving under the influence of alcohol."

"Hmm? Legally, engagements aren't recognized, right? Sister Bing is free now."

“That’s only in terms of law, but not in terms of feelings… Although I’ve only met the other person a few times, my family has benefited greatly because of this relationship.”

"How to say?"

"The Mingzhu Hotel in the county town belongs to my family. My hometown is in the next county, and the main reason I was able to expand the hotel business to Tianshui County was with the help of the Shen family. Every day I stayed at the Shen family's house, all of their business entertainment was arranged at the Mingzhu Hotel. For the Mingzhu Hotel, this was a business worth several million yuan every year... So, even though I knew there was no possibility of marriage, after I graduated from university, my father still insisted on sending me to the Shen family. This house is the Shen family's old residence..."

"Ah."

Lin Lang roughly understood.

Bingning continued, "In Tianshui County, the Shen family's position is practically unshakeable. An'an's third uncle is the principal of the No. 1 High School, and although her eldest and second uncles aren't particularly famous, they both own considerable businesses locally. Her father is even more impressive—the CEO of Xinglan Real Estate..."

"Uh-huh."

"So, I can't take those kinds of photos for you. It's not that I don't trust you, but I already owe the Shen family a lot. If I do something to embarrass them, I really don't know how I'll face them."

"what?"

Lin Lang realized that Bing Ning had been talking about this for a long time.

Bingning moved closer, almost pressing her face against Lin Lang's, and continued, "Actually, I don't care about those things at all, and I'm not being pretentious. Although I can't give you photos, I can make it up to you in other ways."

"Sister Bing, have you never suspected that what happened was just a rumor spread by someone else?"

"Whether it's a rumor or not doesn't matter anymore. Go take a shower, and how about we go to a bar? I'll introduce you to some girls. You're so handsome, they'll definitely like you. Consider it a gift from me, and also a token of my sincerity in signing with Big Fish Media."

At this point, Lin Lang understood Bing Ning's intention.

She seemed to be trying to prove that she couldn't do anything.

"So running a bar wasn't her main job; Sister Bing's main job was pimping."

A look of panic crossed Bing Ning's face as she hurriedly explained, "No...no." Lin Lang removed Bing Ning's hand from his shoulder and said, "Sister Bing, I've said it several times, those rumors are fabricated. You'd rather believe others spreading rumors than believe what I've explained to you personally multiple times?"

Upon hearing this, Bing Ning had become much more sober and removed her hand from Lin Lang's body.

"Lin Lang, it's not that I don't believe what you say, but I can't ignore it. Making money is too important to me. I know that signing with Big Fish Media is my only way out. Even if it's just hearsay, I can only try my best to do it. I'm sorry for embarrassing myself in front of you."

"It's alright. Sister Bing has had too much to drink. She should get some rest. I'll take a taxi home."

After Lin Lang finished speaking, he stood up.

He sensed that Bingning had something else she hadn't said.

"Wait a moment."

Bingning quickly reached out again and grabbed Lin Lang's arm. "I was the one who insisted you drink, and now you can't ride your bike home. I'll call An'an and ask her to take you home."

"It's nothing, it's easy to get a taxi. Thank you for your hospitality today, Sister Bing."

Lin Lang smiled slightly, turned around and left Bing Ning's house.

The moment the door closed, Bing Ning's carefully maintained emotions collapsed.

She sat on the sofa, hugging her knees with both hands and burying her head in them.

What happened today was truly embarrassing. She only intended to explain things to Lin Lang, but subconsciously she regarded him as someone she could transfer benefits to.

This was the first time in her life she had done something like this.

I never expected that what would be revealed in the end would be my own scars.

Essentially, it's a matter of one's own incompetence; no matter what position one is in, it's always awkward.

Her family needs her presence to help them make money. Once she leaves, the Shen family will no longer host business receptions at her hotel, and with such a large loss of business, her hotel can forget about making money in Tianshui County.

And what about her? She owes the Shen family a favor and Shen An'an money.

She knew better than anyone how shameful her life was.

Today, I had to reopen old wounds in front of someone I'd only known for a short time.

She thought Lin Lang wouldn't refuse her arrangement, but she didn't expect...

"Dong dong dong..."

There was a sudden knock on the door.

Bingning quickly raised her head and wiped away her tears.

Reaching the door, I peeked through the peephole and saw Lin Lang outside.

She opened the door and saw Lin Lang saying somewhat apologetically, "Sister Bing, I left my phone on the table."

"Okay, I'll get it for you."

Bing Ning turned around, went to the dining table, picked up Lin Lang's phone, and went to the door again.

After handing the phone to Lin Lang, she immediately returned to the sofa, curled up again, hugged her knees, and buried her head in them, looking like a frightened hedgehog.

Lin Lang, who had just received his phone and was about to say goodbye to Bing Ning, witnessed this scene.

No, I haven't left yet.
