Chapter 77: Chapter 77: The Opportunity to Endorse International Brands
“Of course!” Sang Nanfeng withdrew his gaze from him, not even glancing at the disheveled Fu Xing, and strode directly out the door.
The sky was gloomy, and his heart was equally dark. He hadn’t co all this way in the middle of the night just to deal with so minor issue involving an artist.
It was because the artist who had hit soone was Sang Qiao’s artist. He wanted to see Sang Qiao.
Sang Nanfeng couldn’t rember how long it had been since he had last seen her. He could only watch the plots of their first broadcast on television, where Sang Qiao had beco increasingly active and smart when carrying out tasks.
But she hadn’t updated her Weibo, and he had no way of knowing her current situation, nor could he lower his face to ask Sang Shen.
Now his company was left with only Jiaojiao. Sang Qiao had terminated her contract and backed out of the circle a while ago, and now Sang Shen had left as well.
...
Sang Nanfeng sotis asked himself, is it worth going to such lengths? But he couldn’t swallow his pride; his self-esteem wouldn’t allow him to bow his head.
He didn’t even know if he still cared about Jiaojiao, his sister.
Waking up from a nightmare one late night, he was so frightened that he picked up his phone to call Sang Qiao, only to rember he had been blocked long ago.
Yet he didn’t want to call Jiaojiao, even regretting why he had agreed to acknowledge Jiaojiao in the first place.
Jiaojiao’s contributions could be completely made up for in other financial ways, or by finding her a good family for adoption.
However, it was too late for any of that now.

Sang Qiao had been lying down waiting for Lu Anchi’s reply ever since she hung up the phone.
Lu Anchi: “Sister Qiao, the other party has agreed to settle privately. This matter is resolved. I’m sorry for troubling you today, but… how did you get the video?”
Qiaoqiao is sleepy: “I asked Director Li to inquire in the staff group chat. If anyone had gone to the restroom during your conversation, and if so, whether they had audio or video recordings. If they did, they should secretly send them to . I would protect their anonymity and give them one million.”
Lu Anchi couldn’t help but praise Sister Qiao for being so clever!
If a staff mber had seen them arguing like that in the restroom, they would surely have secretly recorded it, as it was big news.
Lu Anchi: “What if the staff mber doesn’t keep their word and leaks the video themselves? We agreed with Mr. Sang to settle privately, right?”
Qiaoqiao is sleepy: “Yeah, we’ve already settled privately. Delete the video. I also emphasized that after receiving the money, they are not allowed to release it. If they don’t keep their word and it gets out, what does that have to do with us?”
Lu Anran nodded while holding his phone, feeling it made a lot of sense. Lu Anchi: “Sister Qiao, we’re really indebted to you this ti.”
Qiaoqiao is sleepy: “The one million will be deducted from your salary! Hitting soone is not to be taken lightly.”
Lu Anchi: “Got it!”
After ending the chat, Sang Qiao could finally lie down and sleep in peace, but after such an “intense battle,” her sleepiness had mostly dissipated.
Sang Qiao pulled the blanket up high, feeling sowhat vexed; she subconsciously turned her head to look at the man beside her.
He had also not fallen asleep yet; his pair of pitch-black, seemingly bottomless eyes t hers.
“You haven’t slept yet?” It was only then that Sang Qiao realized she had been so engrossed in her phone call that she had completely forgotten there was another person in the room.
Had Si Chenli just been sitting and listening to her talk?
“Mm, is it resolved?” Si Chenli replied indifferently; just now, he had been watching her handle things with such decisiveness that he couldn’t help but be lost in thought for quite a while.
The first ti he t her, she had been a little girl who only knew how to act spoiled with her brother.
Even later, on the day of the broken engagent, she tried to hide her nervousness, but her slightly trembling legs still betrayed her.
At that ti, he was thinking, if he outright refused to break off the engagent, what would she do? Surely she’d end up crying, right? He couldn’t bear to see her cry, but given his circumstances at the ti, he didn’t want to hold her back, so he ended the engagent cleanly.
“Of course! As if the Sang Family could ever trick , not a chance,” Sang Qiao said with an unconsciously smug look on her face.
“That’s impressive,” Si Chenli didn’t squash her mood right now, and he played along with a smile.
The room’s lights had been off for a while now, with only a faint moonlight spilling in from outside the window. It was very dim, yet Sang Qiao could still clearly make out the indulgent look on his face.
It was an utterly indulgent tone, and hearing it made her ears tinge red. She might have believed the flattery coming from soone else.
But with Si Chenli, maybe not.
He had brought the Si Family to such prominence; there were countless acts of brilliance – what did her little feat amount to?
She turned around, her back facing him, “Let’s go to sleep. We have to get up early tomorrow.”
“Mhm,” Si Chenli caught the discomfort in her expression and didn’t press her to confront her own strange emotions.
A good night’s sleep.
The next day, they were woken up by the familiar crowing of a rooster.
When Sang Qiao ca downstairs, her eyelids were heavy with sleep. Taking advantage of the mont when Director Li wasn’t paying attention, she stood still, eyes closed, resting quietly. Anyone unaware might think she had fallen asleep on her feet.
Si Chenli approached her silently, allowing her body to lean slightly against his arm.
In the anti, as Director Li hyped up the events in front of them, Sang Qiao hadn’t heard a single word about yesterday’s competition punishnt.
It wasn’t until today’s schedule was announced, and Director Li glanced at Sang Qiao subconsciously, “?”
“Sang Qiao, what’s the matter with you? Didn’t get any sleep last night?”
[Gosh, this is the first ti I’ve seen Sister Qiao so listless. She’s even leaning on Brother Li. Guys, I have a shaless guess!]
[Boldly speak up, sister above! Actually, I think the sa – was Brother Li too intense, and exhausted Sister Qiao?]
[Holy crap, what are you all doing! Let off this bus; this isn’t the route to kindergarten.]
[… I think things haven’t advanced so quickly; it’s definitely because Sister Qiao couldn’t get past the Connect ga and got annoyed. She must have spent all night trying to get through the level!]
[I share the viewpoint of the hero above, as I am still a pure child!]
“I slept for half the night,” Sang Qiao barely opened her eyes, a weary look on her face.
“How could you only sleep half the night, what were you up to?” Director Li was greatly concerned, worrying that Sang Qiao had gotten into trouble since she usually got enough sleep!
“… I went to argue,” Sang Qiao moved her lips and made up a random excuse.
Director Li: “.”
He knew he wasn’t going to get any useful information, so he didn’t press further, thinking that she probably hadn’t done anything too disastrous.
“Then I’ll repeat it. Today, we are giving every guest couple five hundred yuan. Feel free to use it. Take so photos of the two of you having fun, send them to the show’s WeChat, and tonight they will be published for netizens to vote. The couple with the most votes will win the chance to endorse AN’s new line of couple’s shoes! Everyone, do your best.”
Everyone was already shocked beyond belief-that was AN’s brand, and any international high-profile star would be within their reach to invite. Now, they were offering this opportunity to participants of a love reality show?
This was a chance to make it big, and aside from Sang Shen and Sang Qiao’s team, the other three couples, including Liang ngyun, were incredibly excited.
