Zhi Ling Ling fiddled with her hand in insecurity. "But, would it be alright for a person like me to work in a modeling agency?"
Xiao Yun knitted her brow, stopping her steps she placed her hands on Zhi Ling Ling's shoulders to scold gently. " That's not right, Ling Ling. You shouldn't call yourself someone like me. Everyone in this world has their worth and it isn't something that anyone could judge other than yourself. I'm sure everyone will know how special you are."
"That's right, I agree with your wise words, Ms. Yu." Chu Bing Luo who had been standing for quite a long time spoke from behind. He faintly glanced over at Xiao Yun and could vaguely understand why she was able to make his friend to fell over heels to her.
Zhi Ling Ling looked across her shoulder to see the man who was peaking before. She peeked behind and saw a few people behind him and guess the man must be the CEO of the company, Chu Bing Luo.
When Chu Bing Luo turned his eyes to the potential model he had been wanting to meet, he couldn't help his sparkling eyes to scan at Zhi Ling Ling. He gently murmured "Excuse me." to take off her thick glasses and their eyes met each other for a long minute until Zhi Ling Ling threw her gaze in giddiness.
"As expected, my eyes have never failed me." Xiao Yun heard Chu Bing Luo praising himself and agreed. Unlike many people, Chu Bing Luo only need to see once to find the budding potential from Zhi Ling Ling.
"Ahem." Xiao Yun cleared her throats to bring attention to the people and smiled. "Good afternoon Mr. Chu."
"Good afternoon to you too, Ms. Yu. We should get going now, my office isn't too far off from here." Chu Bing Luo extended his palm to let the girls walk first until they reached his office which was very close to the spot where they stood before.
Inside the office, the secretary entered to place tea for the guests and left with a light thud. "Thank you for coming today, Ms. Zhi." He received a timid nod from Zhi Ling Ling and glanced at Xiao Yun. "Can I take your arrival today as your agreement to join the company?"

Xiao Yun shook her head and placed on her business smile. "You mentioned a trial, right? We would like to try that first. As my friend's guarantor, I want her to make a decision about whether this job is promising for her future."
Chu Bing Luo nodded at her words. A model isn't at all an easy job. There are many accounts to take before deciding to become one. He remembered the photoshoot happening right bellow the floor they were and formed a plan. "I agree. Coincidentally, there's a photoshoot happening now, it's a perfect occasion. What do you say?"
Xiao Yun turned her gaze to Zhi Ling Ling. today she came to become Zhi Ling Ling's guarantor, so the decision making wasn't up to her but Zhi Ling Ling herself.
Zhi Ling Ling mustered her courage from the insecurity butting her self-esteem. When she was mulling over whether to become a model, the largest factor that balled her decision was so that she could retrieve the confidence that she had lost. "Yes, please." Her voice sounded far different than how her soft voice sounded making Xiao Yun to smile.
As he said that, Chu Bing Luo brought them to the photoshoot and found the head make up greeting him with a bow. "Can you help me with this girl?"
The head makeup stared at Zhi Ling Ling's face and thought the little missy was plainer than Xiao Yun but didn't dare to disobey the boss's order and replied, "Will it be only this girl?"
Chu Bing Luo hummed and looked at Xiao Yun, grinning, "Do you also want to try, Xiao Yun?"
"I'll pass." Xiao Yun waved her hand off to see Zhi Ling Ling being brought to the makeup room. Her eyes travelled to find a place for her to sit while waiting for her friend and spotted an advertisement poster hanging on the wall bellow a chair.
Her eyelashes swept down, reading the name of the company the model was posing for. "Golden Tree."
Chu Bing Luo heard her muttering and queried. "Can I guess that you have met Lin Chang Lu?"
Xiao Yun rose her brow. "What makes you say that?"
"I'm very expert at reading people's emotions through their faces and from yours, I could see a little jealous. But there's no way you would be jealous of the model and so my hypothesis is that you have met Chang Lu." Chu Bing Luo spoke like a detective.

Xiao Yun touched her cheeks and looked from the dark surface of Her phone. "Does it really shows in my face?"
"No, not really. From the people I've met, you ate the fourth best person in hiding your emotion. Do you want to know who is the fourth person bellow you?"
"Who?" Xiao Yun asked and received a grin. "Chang Lu. I have been well connected with her because of our works and I found her to be an amazing person but I could feel something far different from you. I could see why Li Lei is very infatuated with you." Xiao Yun chuckled from his words. Chu Bing Luo was a very easygoing person, as he spoke in his friendly manner, Xiao Yun couldn't feel any awkward air from his smooth monologue.
"Ah! There she is..." Chu Bing Luo called up when he saw a faint figure but his words trailed in a trance when he saw Zhi Ling Ling walking out of the makeup room.
Her delicate face with only light make up contrasting with the black long dress that was used for the theme of today's photoshoot was amazingly breath-taking. At some point, he had guessed that Zhi Ling Ling could become a far more beautiful person by altering the way she dressed herself, but the view that he saw had exceeded his initial thoughts.
When Zhi Ling Ling walked out, her large cat-like black eyes squint to find where Xiao Yun was but suddenly heard the voice of the photographer. "Next!"
"Coming up!" The photographer assistant exclaimed and spotted Zhi Ling Ling. Thinking she was one of the professional model, she lightly pushed Zhi Ling Ling.
Zhi Ling Ling stumbled a little to find her way in the middle of the light.
"Eh?" Xiao Yun saw Zhi Ling Ling standing at a different place and thought, 'that's the wrong place, right? Isn't it the place for the professional models?'
Xiao Yun moved a step wanting to tell the people that Zhi Ling Ling is only an amateur to feel a hand halting her shoulder. "Wait, we could wait here. It's getting into a good point."
For a moment, Xiao Yun saw him smiling like a child and shifted her gaze to see Zhi Ling Ling posing with a little awkward movement, but her charisma had changed the look of her usual timid eyes.
It was as if she had change into an utterly different person!
Not only do the photographer and staff had their eyes froze, Xiao Yun who has known her future as the next top model felt that she had underestimated the title for a moment.
She was far different than an amateur!
The professional models sitting on the left pillars from Xiao Yun were also astonished to the point that their mouth gaped.
Zhi Ling King was unaware of the reaction and when she saw the photographer not doing his work, she asked herself 'was my pose too weird?'
The photographer told her to give a charismatic look and when he mentioned the theme, Zhi Ling Ling's first thought was the poster of a model for a lipstick advertisement that she saw before entering the company and recreated the same pose with a deeper look.
Perhaps it was too bad?
She could feel her muscle grew stiff and decide to move to make herself comfortable. The photographer who goofed off saw her move into another pose and quickly shuttered his camera endlessly to make sure he wouldn't miss another art piece from the unknown model.
When Zhi Ling Ling finished taking the pictures, the photographer walked to see the outcome of the photos from a larger screen and showed his admiration for Zhi Ling Ling's charismatic presence. For a model, having a presence is direly needed because even with a beautiful face someone could rarely have the presence to stand out. The talent that Zhi Ling Ling has was certainly rare and almost only one in a thousand.
"How are the pictures?" Chu Bing Luo asked and the photographer gave a marvelous expression. "It's amazing! Please look for yourself, Mr. Chu. May I know the name of the model? We could use this for the advertisement."
Chu Bing Luo rubbed his chin and smiled sheepishly. "I hope I could use it however, the model isn't yet in our company. Breaking the rule would only make me sued, what do you say, Mr. Yu?"

Letters from a Dying World
Times historic are often penned after the fact in the lifeblood of the pitiful, forgotten masses. That roiling, uncountable crush of humanity, they who held the pikes and they who threw down the tyrants. Their veins opened by gazes academic, sharp and cruel, and pecked away at with quills, written out of their own story. The Second Dark Crusade was a time of such poignancy. A time when the light of man waned and flickered, choking in the acrid smoke of its own inadequacy. As befitting of such an age it has been covered more than a capital whore, and so I attempt not to tell that story again. That story of dull, unfeeling analysis. Neither here will you find the browbeating, propagandistic screeds so common in the hands of men, the light of youth still burning behind their eyes. Nay, here I shall attempt to cover fresh ground, not tread on the grave dirt of long dead authors. Here I shall attempt to tell the story of the small lives caught, unbeknownst to them, in the great and torrential downpour that we now call history. Here lies the true story of The Second Crusade. - Loremaster Ip'Qal
