Chapter 146: You’ve Grown
In the next few days, she was offered the opportunity to make a trip back to Sea City to shoot a comrcial. She had beco increasingly popular with the success of Journey to Fairyland, and her agency had brokered a comrcial for her that would net her tens of thousands of yuan after they had taken their cut.
Tens of thousands of yuan! Yan Huan found the situation ironic. In her previous life, her net worth had already been in the billions by the ti she won her Best Actress award. Tens of thousands of yuan would have been a paltry sum to the old Yan Huan; only the richest companies had been able to afford the astronomical sum she commanded for each comrcial back then. The brand that had offered the comrcial job to her now was lucky; soon enough, her rates would skyrocket along with her popularity, and all the other companies would be kicking themselves for not having thought of asking her to shoot a comrcial for them sooner.
After wrapping up her scenes for the day, she took a taxi back to Sea City. She would return to the movie set by plane after completing the shoot for the comrcial, and continue filming Journey to Fairyland.
She took the taxi all the way to her agency. She had only been to the actual office building a handful of tis, because she had signed with them during an especially busy phase: she had just finished shooting Love and Tribulations then, and had almost imdiately started working on Journey to Fairyland after that. Her agency had asked her to prioritize her work on Journey to Fairyland, as it was Director Jin’s “big TV show” of the year, and they knew that the show would be a major boost to her career. The agency genuinely cared about their artists; they were not the type to work their actors and actresses to death just for the extra revenue.
This was therefore the first ti she had visited the company in a long while. She was dressed simply, and looked a little disheveled from her long journey because she had made a beeline for her agency without first changing her clothes. She would have preferred to rest at ho for a day to recharge her batteries before showing up at the office, but her tight schedule did not allow it.
“Hey, isn’t that Yan Huan?” soone whispered as they pointed at Yan Huan.
“Yup, that’s her alright. She’s crazy popular these days.”
“I thought she was one of those girls who are only pretty because of all the makeup, but wow, her real makeup-free face is gorgeous! The company hit the jackpot when they signed her.”
Yan Huan and Yi Ling walked into Manager Li Changqing’s office. Yan Huan checked the ti: good, they had arrived right on ti.
She would be filming a comrcial for a famous shampoo brand. Several employees from the shampoo company were also in the manager’s office; they saw Yan Huan, and were delighted to see that she was every bit as beautiful as her photos had made her out to be. They had wanted to shoot the comrcial imdiately, but Yan Huan asked for it to be delayed to the next morning as she was still exhausted from her trip back to the city.
“Thank you, Manager Li,” Yan Huan shook hands with Li Changqing. Her easygoing confidence set her apart from the other newcors in the entertainnt industry; she was obviously soone who was accustod to taking the macro view, instead of getting caught up in the petty details.
“Keep up the good work.” Li Changqing was impressed with Yan Huan. He knew that a confident, self-assured actress like her would go far.
Yan Huan smiled. After that, she returned to her apartnt with Yi Ling.
On the way ho, Yan Huan made a detour to the pet boarding center to pick up Little Bean. She had decided to take Little Bean with her for her remaining scenes for Journey to Fairyland. The production team did not actually allow pets on the set, but she was now on friendly terms with most of the team, and they had agreed to let her bring Little Bean with her to the set.
Yan Huan gazed fondly at Little Bean as Yi Ling hugged the cat. Yan Huan had missed Little Bean badly, and could not wait to hug her as well.
“You’ve grown.” Yan Huan took Little Bean into her arms and looked carefully at her fluffy, adorable feline face, taking in every new detail.
Little Bean had gained weight—it seed that the pet boarding center had not been stingy with food and water. They had taken good care of their little darling.
“She’s not just bigger now—she’s fatter, too.” Yi Ling rubbed Little Bean’s tiny pink nose. “I’ll pack the cat litter and everything else we’ll need once we get ho. It just doesn’t feel right without her.”
