Chapter 103: 103 Sister Lan takes flight again, the siblings of King of Yan and Yongning [1 more update] Chapter 103: 103 Sister Lan takes flight again, the siblings of King of Yan and Yongning [1 more update] Nie Shuangyi was startled and lifted her head in surprise, her gaze eting Ye Wanlan’s calm, slightly smiling crescent eyes.
“Jump ship from Sky Emperor dia?” Yeh Jialing felt it amusing and turned around as well, “Do you have any idea the contract that Nie Shuangyi is bound by—”
Her words ca to an abrupt halt, unfinished.
At this mont, Ye Wanlan was not wearing a hat or mask. She had also changed out of her suit and trousers, donning a traditional-style long dress.
The wind gently fluttered the hem of her skirt, like flowers blossoming in water.
Yeh Jialing did not recognize the girl before her was the person in charge of Pulling the Sky Company, but upon seeing that face, she felt an unprecedented sense of crisis.
The entertainnt industry is never short of beauties, that’s certainly true.
But it lacks top-tier beauties.
When her relationship with Nie Shuangyi was still good, she had put a lot of effort into getting Nie Shuangyi to join Sky Emperor dia with her, signing a tyrannical contract, and ultimately ensuring that Nie Shuangyi struggled in the industry for eight years with nurous antis.
“Who are you?” Yeh Jialing’s pupils constricted, toning down her haughty deanor a bit, “Your company wants to poach Nie Shuangyi?”
Which leader in the entertainnt industry unearthed this newcor?
Zhaoyan Group’s Shengshi Entertainnt, or Xiang’s Group’s Guangxing dia?
The more she thought about it, the more panicked Yeh Jialing beca.
Whichever company it was, they would promote this girl.
And if she officially made her debut, her resources would surely be snatched away!
Ye Wanlan didn’t pay any attention to Yeh Jialing, she smiled faintly, “Miss Nie, shall we talk in the car?”
Among the whole crew, only Nie Shuangyi had seen Ye Wanlan without her disguise, and she nodded blankly, “Ah? Sure…”
She had not co to her senses when she was already being pulled away by Ye Wanlan.
Yeh Jialing stood frozen in place.
When the video of her pulling on Nie Shuangyi’s necklace was exposed online, she didn’t feel as panicked as she did at this mont.
She wasn’t afraid of being scolded for a while, she was afraid of the resources in the industry being taken by others.

Inside the car, Rong Yu, who had regained the driver’s seat, was once again full of vigor.
Ye Wanlan hadn’t taken the driver’s seat back but instead sat with Nie Shuangyi in the back.
“Sorry for the trouble, please take Miss Nie back to where she lives first,” Ye Wanlan said.
“Not at all, not at all,” Rong Yu was animated, “We’re heading back to the city anyway, it’s on the way.”
Yan Tingfeng, supporting his head with one hand, spoke indifferently, “Talk less.”
Rong Yu instantly beca as quiet as a chicken.
“Miss Ye, thank you so much for helping out,” Nie Shuangyi said awkwardly as she wiped away her tears, “And for seeing in such an embarrassing state, could I borrow a tissue?”
Ye Wanlan took out a tissue, but instead of handing it over, she gently lifted Nie Shuangyi’s face and wiped her tears for her, “Stop crying. If the company’s no good, then change it. Trees die when they’re uprooted, but people survive by moving on.”
“How could I not understand such a simple truth?” Nie Shuangyi chuckled bitterly, “It’s just that I signed a fifteen-year servitude contract with Sky Emperor dia, and the penalty for breaching it is an eight-figure sum.”
Which company would pay an eight-figure compensation for her?
And by the ti the fifteen-year term was up, she’d be nearly forty—where could she act then?
“Miss Nie, you’re in luck. Our Student Ye just acquired Shengshi Entertainnt,” Rong Yu couldn’t help but interject, “She’s the boss, she signs who she wants.”
“What?!” Nie Shuangyi’s eyes widened in an instant, “Isn’t Shengshi Entertainnt a subsidiary of Zhaoyan Group?”
“Yes, President Quan gave that company, and I indeed need to continue expanding the influence and dissemination of intangible cultural heritage in the entertainnt industry,” Ye Wanlan nodded slightly, “I see potential in Miss Nie and would like to sign you to Shengshi Entertainnt.”
Sky Emperor dia, Shengshi Entertainnt, and Guangxing dia are known as the three giants of the Shenzhou Entertainnt Circle.
Among them, Guangxing dia under Xiang’s Group is the undisputed number one.
Since the beginning of the last century, the Xiang Family had already started controlling the cultural entertainnt field.
“My potential?” Nie Shuangyi looked down at her hands, “Miss Ye, to be honest, ever since I started as an extra at eighteen until now, I have lost faith in my abilities.”
She was repeatedly suppressed, with both the company and the audience questioning her acting skills.
“Do not let anything external affect you yourself,” Ye Wanlan patted her shoulder and smiled again, “You like the script of ‘Annus Mirabilis,’ do you?”
ntioning this, Nie Shuangyi’s eyes visibly brightened, “I like it very much, the book is also very well written, it’s just that I…”
Sky Emperor dia had already stopped her work and given her role to soone else.
“If you like it, then that’s good,” Ye Wanlan said casually, “If you like it, continue filming. Leave the rest to ; I’ll arrange an agent and a legal team for you. They’ll handle the termination.”
Nie Shuangyi stared at her, almost forgetting how to speak.
In this mont, she felt like the person before her was like the light, incredibly dazzling.
“Miss Nie, don’t be scared,” Rong Yu couldn’t resist interjecting again, “Our Student Ye always keeps her word, and I’m sure she still has plenty of tricks up her sleeve to surprise you later on.”
Yan Tingfeng: “Shut up.”
Rong Yu was startled, almost crashing the car into a big tree.
“Alright.” Nie Shuangyi’s tightly wound heart had completely relaxed, “Miss Ye, I believe in you, as long as I can continue to act, I will agree to whatever you ask.”
“I do have one condition,” Ye Wanlan raised her eyebrows, “After signing with Shengshi Entertainnt, you will be one of Pulling the Sky’s spokespersons. During the endorsent period, you cannot wear or use competitive products from other companies.”
Nie Shuangyi: “…”
This is a condition?
It’s clearly a bonus of buy one, get one free!
Moreover, not using competitors’ products while being an endorser is a default clause in the industry anyway.
“Miss Ye, do you really not want to add a few more conditions?” Nie Shuangyi cracked a joke, “What if you make famous, and I go set up my own shop?”
Many talent agencies cling tightly to their popular stars, fearing their departure, and thus sign many overbearing clauses.
Ye Wanlan calmly and openly said, “Then I would congratulate you, because you would finally have the ability to spread your wings and fly high. No matter where you are, I will applaud for you.”
Thump!
Nie Shuangyi was deeply shaken.
She couldn’t imagine such boldness in a girl not yet twenty years old.
She even felt like she was conversing with soone who’d lived a long, transcendent life—a sage from beyond this world.
Ye Wanlan simply smiled at her, “Miss Nie, we’re here. You should go back and rest well. Soone will contact you, and you’ll return to the set as usual tomorrow.”
After getting out of the car and leaving, Nie Shuangyi was still in a daze for a long ti.
Who exactly is Ye Wanlan?
In the car, Rong Yu once again lost control of the vehicle.
Rolling to the back seat, he muttered, “Student Ye gets to talk, but I don’t, Yan Tingfeng, you double-standard weirdo!”
Yan Tingfeng said indifferently, “Ignore him, he’s having an episode.”
Ye Wanlan: “Mmm, as a doctor, you can’t argue with a patient.”
Rong Yu: “…”
In unison against , you two are in sync again?
“During the sumr vacation, Yunjing Museum will organize a group activity in collaboration with Yunjing University and Yunjing Archaeological Center to go on an adventure in Yan City, with professional archaeologists giving explanations,” Yan Tingfeng asked with a smile, “I wonder if Miss Ye is interested?”
Ye Wanlan’s gaze sharpened slightly.
Yan City is the northwestern most point, the first fortress at the Northwest Border of Shenzhou. The King of Yan fought wars there for many years.
Yan City and Yan Mountain were nad for the King of Yan’s title “Yan.”
The King of Yan’s given na was He Jia, with the surna of his mother, Crane.
She took the surna Xiang from Ning Zhaozong, with a single na, Lan.
In tis of chaos and upheaval, when they, as siblings, could not return to the palace, they always depended on each other for survival.
She was personally raised by He Jia. During tis of being hunted by enemies, He Jia, who was five years older than her, protected her and broke them out of encirclent multiple tis.
Blood is thicker than water, such was the bond between kin.
Only three hundred years later, she could open her eyes once more, whereas the King of Yan would eternally sleep in Yan Mountain, forever guarding that piece of land even after death.
“I’m very interested,” Ye Wanlan pulled back from her thoughts, suppressing surging emotions, “Has there been a new archaeological discovery in Yan City?”
“Hmm,” Yan Tingfeng nodded lightly, “The archaeological team seems to have discovered the tomb of the King of Yan and is about to investigate it. There are too many tomb robbing gangs over there; we must be cautious.”
Ye Wanlan’s eyes narrowed slightly: “A tomb? But the historical records say that the King of Yan died in battle without retreating, buried in Yan Mountain; there should be no tomb.”
“That’s why the Archaeological Center is still investigating,” Yan Tingfeng explained, “But they will definitely not miss any relics related to the King of Yan.”
“I will go,” Ye Wanlan said softly, “Yan City is a place I must visit.”
It was her second ho, after the Daning Capital Fengyuan, and her hotown.
Yan Tingfeng’s phoenix eyes curved with a smile: “I am honored to be able to help Miss Ye.”
In the back seat, Rong Yu curled up into a ball, took out his phone, and played Candy Crush.
He would never talk to a lunatic again.
**
The next day, at nine in the morning, on the set of “Annus Mirabilis.”
The online scandal about the necklace was still unsettled, and Yeh Jialing did indeed restrain herself quite a bit, waiting properly for the day’s filming to start.
Until she saw Nie Shuangyi.
“Why are you here? Your character has already been written out,” Yeh Jialing frowned, “Where’s the security? Why don’t they quickly kick out unrelated personnel?”
