"I have a surprise for you."
And also a surprise for Le Entertainnt.
"Still a surprise, huh?" Wang Li couldn’t help but laugh, "Alright, then I’ll wait and see what kind of surprise it is."
"Sure, but Sister Li, have the team be extra vigilant, and if they find any news online about Qiao Nan using for hype, make sure to suppress it. I don’t want to appear on the sa page as her."
Qiao Xi really hated this kind of manipulation, especially from Qiao Nan, which disgusted her imnsely.
"Of course, you’re now one of GK’s shareholders, we naturally can’t let a ’little white flower’ take advantage without giving sothing back," Wang Li said, scoffing, "Le Entertainnt trying to leverage this is like seeking their own demise."
Wang Li now spoke with a lot more confidence.
Back at Le Entertainnt, she didn’t have any say, the company was guarding against her, but following Qiao Xi to GK was a different story.
GK’s PR team wasn’t one to ss with, anyone in the industry wanting to pull Qiao Xi down had to think twice.
Qiao Xi smirked, "I don’t know about seeking their own demise, but once Qiao Nan becos valueless, Le Entertainnt will likely abandon her."
Wang Li’s voice was mocking, "Using others for publicity stunts is a path dood to be short-lived."
Qiao Xi looked out of the glass window at the dazzling lights of Hai City, curling her lips slightly, "Exactly."
If one could succeed without any true talent, it’d be an insult to the artists who have always worked hard in this industry.
Qiao Xi’s voice was very soft, as if it could be blown away by the wind.
Indeed, Qiao Nan posed no threat to her.
She simply disliked Qiao Nan flaunting around her.
anwhile, Qiao Nan had locked herself in her room after returning ho.
She didn’t dare ntion a single word of what had happened during the show to her manager, frightened that her manager might abandon her.
She was still agonizing over how to persuade the director to cut out the parts where Qiao Xi ridiculed her and not broadcast them.
In the midst of her concentration, she heard a knock on the door.
Qiao Nan opened the door to see Wang Wen, then listlessly turned around and lay on the bed, looking utterly dispirited.
"What’s wrong, tired?" asked Wang Wen, noticing her distraught mood, concerned, "Was filming the show too hard? Have so bird’s nest soup."
Qiao Nan, disheartened, glanced at it but had no appetite, "Do we still have money for this?"
After Qiao Xi’s corporation fell, their family’s days were not as good as before, even many of the servants had been dismissed.
Wang Wen smiled, "Mom still has so private money saved, treating my precious daughter is definitely not a problem."
"Mom~"
Qiao Nan felt her mother’s care and love, climbed out of bed, and nestled into Wang Wen’s arms, "I hate Qiao Xi!"
She bit into the blanket in frustration.
Wang Wen squinted her eyes, "Qiao Xi? What did that bitch do this ti?"
Qiao Nan then told Wang Wen about what had happened during the show.
She couldn’t think of any solutions.
If that part really got aired, could she still be a glamorous big star?
Qiao Nan dared not think further.
After listening, Wang Wen’s expression twisted, she was utterly furious, "Qiao Xi just can’t stand to see you do well?"
We really shouldn’t have let that bitch Qiao Xi marry into the Shen Family, inadvertently making the enemy stronger.
A bitch’s daughter is indeed a bitch!
Qiao Nan desperately grabbed Wang Wen’s arm, "Mom, what should I do now?"
"Nannan, we must think of sothing," Wang Wen stated firmly, "You must beco a star!"
Being a star ant high inco.
Now relying on the old man Qiao Zhenbin was out of the question, the only hope was her own daughter.
"I know, but what else can we do?"
Qiao Nan was completely frustrated.
Who doesn’t want to be a star?
The mont she sat in the top spot, she knew how splendid the view from high above was.
Only from such heights could others see her.
What she wanted was everyone’s attention, to truly surpass Qiao Xi!
Wang Wen patted Qiao Nan’s head, murmuring, "In this world, there’s nothing that can’t be done."
"You have a way?" Qiao Nan’s eyes lit up with hope, "Mom, please tell quickly."
Wang Wen looked at her beloved daughter, her face troubled, "Nannan, this thod might not work, and..."
"Mom, stop beating around the bush. I need to report to the dormitory later tonight, I can’t lose this opportunity!"
Although Le Entertainnt wasn’t as big as GK or Shengshi, it was still a major company, this was a make-or-break mont!
She must trample Qiao Xi underfoot to fiercely vent this pent-up frustration!
...
Qiao Xi had nothing much to do before the show started shooting, she was either reading books or watching so old movies at ho, quite leisurely.
Shen Dang was busy during the day and would co to pick up Qiao Xi for dinner in the evening.
The night before the show started filming was coincidentally Jiashu’s birthday.
Jiashu had organized a party at Xiaotang Mountain and invited a bunch of friends to have fun.
Qiao Xi went to Xiaotang Mountain in Shen Dang’s car.
When they arrived, the private room was bustling with excitent.
Seeing Qiao Xi appear with Shen Dang, everyone briefly fell silent as if the pause button had been pressed.
Jiashu was the first to break the silence, "Ah Dang, Xixi, you’re here, co sit!"
"Brother Dang, co sit here, I’ve saved the center spot for you."
The one throwing out this cheeky remark was Tang Honghe.
Both Tang Honghe and Jiashu had interested looks and a lot to say, but they both dared not tease Shen Dang and Qiao Xi.
Qiao Xi, facing the scrutinizing glances of everyone, said to Shen Dang, "I’ll go talk to Tutu, you go drink with Tang Honghe and the others."
"But I prefer staying with you," Boss Shen showed his reluctance, "Drinking isn’t as important as you."
The crowd all "ohh-ed" at that.
Brother Dang could really sweet-talk!
That was so solid romantic talk.
After Qiao Xi gave him a sowhat speechless look, she walked toward Su Tutu, "Tutu."
Su Tutu, almost dying of laughter from Shen Dang’s antics, grabbed Qiao Xi’s hand and whispered sneakily, "Babe, you ca with Boss Shen, have you guys patched things up?"
Patched things up?
They weren’t really ever apart, were they?
Qiao Xi smiled reservedly, "Well... how shall I put it, I’m just giving him another chance to pursue ."
"Impressive!" True to her sisters’ spirit, Su Tutu blinked curiously, "When did this happen?"
"Just these past few days."
Su Tutu gave her an ’I understand you’ look.
Succumbing to Boss Shen was quite normal, after all.
Countless won in Hai City openly or secretly adored Boss Shen, the numbers were staggering like a horde crossing a river.
anwhile, Tang Honghe moved close to Shen Dang and whispered, "Brother Dang, did you manage to win Sister-in-law over?"
Shen Dang didn’t reply, rely giving Tang Honghe a calm look that betrayed no emotion.
Tang Honghe, as if understanding sothing, gave him a thumbs up and flattered, "Brother Dang is truly impressive, managing to win Sister-in-law back so quickly."
