Bao Ye was indeed in a great mood.
The hard-earned new experience was just as he imagined, unforgettable.
Bao Ye suddenly had an idea.
In the future, whatever she wanted, he’d use it to lure her, so she’d take the bait.
But after this ti, it wouldn’t be so easy again to get her to take the bait.
Hearing this, Jiang Ruan angrily glared at him with red eyes, her voice quivering with tears, "Do you have any sha? How many tis have I said it, did you even listen to ? You said it would only be for a while, and then what happened?"
"You’re just a liar, I’ll never believe you again, sob sob sob..."
Big teardrops slipped down her cheeks.
Jiang Ruan cried like a pear blossom bathed in rain.
Bao Ye lightly coughed, raising his hand to wipe her tears, but there seed to be no end to them.
He said, "There won’t be a next ti, I promise."
"Stop crying."
Jiang Ruan pulled his hand away, grievingly accusing, "You said the sa thing last ti."
"And then what happened?"
"n’s words are deceitful, this saying is indeed true!"
"Bao Ye, if you keep ssing around like this..."
"I’ll end up dying in your bed sooner or later!"
Hearing this, Bao Ye was both amused and exasperated, "Is it really that scary?"
Jiang Ruan: "Nonsense!"
"Are all n in the world the sa?" Bao Ye sighed, darkness in his eyes, "It’s not sothing that’s easy to control, you know."
Jiang Ruan gritted her teeth, "Who says they’re all the sa? Clearly it’s you who’s the pervert, you see who..."
Bao Ye replied in a lancholy tone, "That’s because they can’t."
Jiang Ruan: "..."
"I can’t communicate with you."
She sniffled, feeling embarrassed; she had cried all night.
Her eyes now hurt.
She pulled his arm away, turned around, and angrily said, "With all your logic, don’t talk to from now on, I refuse to communicate with you."
As soon as she finished speaking, her shoulder was pressed by the man’s chin, the strong scent of cologne wafting in as he wrapped his arms around her waist, slowly saying, "Not cooled off yet? Hmm?"
Jiang Ruan tried to struggle, "Don’t hug ."
But he held her even tighter.
"Little grump," Bao Ye teased.
He could see her puffed-up little face resembling a bun, looking angrily cute.
With a light lick of his thin lips, his dark eyes murmured in her ear, "The company has recently discussed a new project, and they need an endorser. The offer is eight figures. Interested, hmm?"
Hearing this, Jiang Ruan’s eyes instantly lit up.
Eight figures?
Isn’t that tens of millions!!!
Oh my, even if Jiang Ruan took endorsent deals for a year, she wouldn’t get tens of millions, because she’d have to split it with the company, and most of it would be taken by them.
The more she thought about it, the more tempted Jiang Ruan beca.
But just turning around like that, wouldn’t it show her to be quite spineless? She murmured, "Does Bao Group still need endorsers? Stop trying to trick ."
"As soon as Bao Group releases the news, wouldn’t all the big nas in the entertainnt circle be scrambling for it? How can a third-rate little star like compare?"
This was spoken with the utmost modesty,
After speaking, Jiang Ruan remained silent.
Ears perked up, just wanting to hear what he’d say next.
Very soon, the man’s magnetic voice ca, his thin lips brushing against her neck, his tone low and hoarse, "The the of this project is about inspiring growth. Whether it’s the intent or the image, in my heart, no one fits better than you."
In the midnight quiet, the bedroom was lit only by a dim nightlight.
The man held the girl.
Intimate chats were no different from couples worldwide; after hearing his words, Jiang Ruan instantly softened.
But not completely giving in, "You wouldn’t be just trying to coax , would you?"
She murmured.
Actually, she knew in her heart, there’s a big chance he was.
Otherwise, he would’ve told her much earlier.
Not only ntioning it now.
Bao Ye said, "The contract is in my bag, I’ll give it to you to sign tomorrow."
Hearing this, Jiang Ruan finally turned around, looking at the man, her eyes filled with surprise, she was incredulous, "Are you serious?"
Bao Ye chuckled, "Of course."
"Been telling you this much just to amuse you?"
Jiang Ruan said, "You have to think it through, that’s the Bao Group’s endorser, it’s not as simple as just letting take an ad."
Bao Ye looked at her red and swollen eyes, appearing pitiable like a little waif.
His dark eyes deepened as he gazed at her, his fingertips brushing past her cheek, "I wouldn’t bring back the contract if I wasn’t sure."
Jiang Ruan pouted, "Are you sure the offer is eight figures?"
"Why do I feel like you’re deceiving ?"
"You know, all my endorsents over the years don’t add up to tens of millions, and easily you say eight figures, isn’t it you giving a pass?"
Being questioned, Bao Ye thought for a mont, then answered, "Hmm."
"Indeed, there was a condition I didn’t ntion."
Jiang Ruan widened her eyes, she knew it.
It surely wasn’t that simple.
Just as she was about to hear Bao Ye continue, "Bao Group’s endorsers typically sign for ten years, a contract must be signed, and you can’t breach it."
"Twenty million is your annual endorsent fee."
"And within these ten years, you can’t do anything that violates company terms or tarnishes the company’s image, or it will also be considered a breach."
"Sign for ten years?" Jiang Ruan’s eyes widened, "Gosh, that’s a long ti?"
She had never encountered a company signing endorsents for ten years before.
But twenty million a year.
This big number is really tempting.
Bao Ye responded, "Hmm."
His dark eyes fixed on her, "This is also a guarantee for a long-term cooperation for both parties, and in these ten years, not only will you be Bao Group’s endorser, but in any official cooperation with any company, you’ll represent Bao Group as the endorser."
"You can take on all the endorsents."
"Bao Group will grant you this privilege."
Jiang Ruan grew more and more intrigued as she listened.
What’s this, a pie falling from the sky?
"Such a good deal, why didn’t you tell before?" Jiang Ruan pouted, "You’ve said so much, are you painting a big pie?"
Bao Ye laughed in exasperation, "The Bao Family never had an endorser before, isn’t that common knowledge?"
"Don’t tell you didn’t know."
Hearing this, Jiang Ruan thought seriously for a mont.
"Seems like that’s true. So why didn’t the Bao Family want endorsers before?"
Bao Ye’s tone was cold, "Because the Bao Family is strong enough worldwide already; we don’t need any celebrity endorsent to stay ahead of the tis."
Jiang Ruan asked, "So why now?"
"Still saying it’s not you deliberately going easy?"
Hearing her accusatory tone, Bao Ye chuckled, pinched her nose playfully, "You little ingrate."
"I go easy on you, and you complain about ?"
"Fine, if you don’t want it, whatever."
But he wasn’t going to take it back.
Seeing him retract, Jiang Ruan quickly said, "Don’t."
She looked at him, face serious, "Are you really sure you want to be the Bao Family’s endorser?"
Bao Ye replied, "Yeah."
"What’s wrong, scared?"
He deliberately provoked her.
Jiang Ruan wasn’t oblivious. She sighed, "No, I’m just afraid I won’t do well."
"I’m afraid I won’t live up to such a high title and end up ruining your image instead of helping you."
"What’s there to fear," Bao Ye said, "I believe you have the ability to fully take on this title."
He spoke with complete seriousness.
Jiang Ruan stared at him peculiarly, "Why do you seem so off tonight?"
Bao Ye raised an eyebrow, "In what way?"
"Like you’ve been possessed," Jiang Ruan pouted, teasing, "Being so gentle doesn’t suit you."
Bao Ye: "..."
He moved back, lying flat, then closed his eyes.
A cool voice ca through, "Sleep."
Two words, then he didn’t move at all.
As if his earlier initiation was her illusion.
Jiang Ruan: "..."
This seems suddenly back to normal.
He was tired, but Jiang Ruan wasn’t. Instead, she felt more energized after hearing about the endorsent.
She lay there with open eyes, counting on her fingers, "Twenty million a year, and two hundred million in ten years!"
"Oh my, if I were an endorser for the Bao Family for forty years, wouldn’t I be sitting on eight hundred million by the ti I’m sixty? The kind where I couldn’t max out my credit cards even if I tried?"
Her voice carried, causing Bao Ye to lose control of his facial expression; his lips twitched as he opened his eyes.
His thin lips spat out two words, "Ambitious!"
"And eight hundred million makes you satisfied?"
Did she even know how much the Bao Family makes in a year,
a number ordinary people cannot even fathom in a lifeti?
Even though it was plenty, Bao Ye still wanted to make it more.
And she was content with just eight hundred million.
Hmm...
"Well, of course!" Jiang Ruan said, "Do you know what the unit ’billion’ ans to ordinary people? It’s a dream, you know?"
"I once did a calculation: if I hadn’t entered the entertainnt industry, I’d probably be just an ordinary office worker. My monthly salary would be at most ten thousand, a hundred thousand a year, and after living frugally, I might save sixty thousand in a year. In forty years, that’s two point four million."
"One billion is many tis two point four million, you know? I can’t even imagine it. If you converted it to cash, could it fill this room?"
Bao Ye burst her bubble, "It can’t."
Jiang Ruan pouted, "You haven’t tried, how do you know it can’t?"
Bao Ye explained, "The Bao Family used to have a vault, seed like it had over ten billion, and each room was a billion, bigger than this room."
Jiang Ruan: "..."
"The Bao Family has a vault?"
Her surprised voice ca across, to which Bao Ye responded, "Yeah."
As they chatted, Jiang Ruan started to feel a bit sleepy too.
After all, she’d been bustling around all night.
Before sleeping, she couldn’t help but ask him again, "You really want to be the Bao Family endorser?"
The man didn’t even open his eyes, "Yeah."
Bao Ye said, "Go to sleep."
He was tired too.
Jiang Ruan pressed, "What if your mom disagrees?"
"She doesn’t like ."
For the first ti, Jiang Ruan actively brought up his mother.
She never did before.
If you listened carefully, you could hear the grievance in her voice.
Jiang Ruan finished speaking, waiting for his answer.
But after waiting a long ti, she didn’t hear him speak.
Only the sound of his calm, steady breathing while asleep reached her ears.
Jiang Ruan pouted, he fell asleep so quickly.
Humph.
Lying in his arms, Jiang Ruan’s mind was in a whirl.
All sorts of things mixed together.
Making her a bit dazed.
When sleepiness overtook her, she eventually succumbed and fell asleep.
That night, Jiang Ruan had a dream.
It wasn’t a very good nightmare.
