Back then, S Entertainnt did consider signing Jiang Nuo, but he laid out conditions: no scandal-mongering, no intimate scenes beyond kissing, which limited his future path, so they couldn't reach an agreent.
However, after staying in the entertainnt circle for a while and learning about so issues at S Entertainnt, he was glad they hadn't agreed. Otherwise, how could he keep his "integrity" and marry his current wife?
Jiang Nuo had a poor impression of S Entertainnt and directly told Mu Bai, "I'll pay your penalty fee. Terminate your contract with S Entertainnt imdiately."
"Yes, I'll listen to Uncle and Aunt, and also Great Aunt." In fact, shortly after joining S Entertainnt, Mu Bai regretted her decision.
But by that ti, she had already signed the contract and couldn't breach it just like that; she couldn't ask her family to cover the penalty fee, right?
The family could afford it, but coming up with the money would an admitting her "failure", and she'd have to withdraw from the entertainnt industry.
Mu Bai had just entered society, full of pride; why would she want to accept that? She could only grit her teeth and stick with it. After all, she only acted in movies and avoided those so-called cocktail parties and clubbing events.
Even if she attended, upon sensing sothing was wrong, she would not give them face and would leave directly.
She was highly vigilant; after several incidents, S Entertainnt and the wealthy businessn got annoyed with her. Besides, the entertainnt circle had plenty of beauties, and she wasn't the most beautiful, so S Entertainnt couldn't be bothered with her.
Naturally, the agent assigned to her wasn't great. She wouldn't be left workless, but the gigs found for her weren't that good either. The decent movies Mu Bai got into were mostly due to her own luck.
Solving the contract termination issue wasn't particularly difficult. One reason was that Mu Bai was already being sidelined by S Entertainnt, not much value left to tap; another being there were plenty of younger, prettier girls, so S Entertainnt didn't want to waste resources on her.
Of course, to avoid trouble, Jiang Nuo didn't handle the termination directly but found a rather ordinary third party to resolve the issue in the guise of Mu Bai's family representative.
When Mu Bai received the termination contract, she breathed a sigh of relief, feeling like she had finally escaped from a cage.
"Great Aunt, I promise to listen to Uncle from now on and stick with him!" Mu Bai said earnestly.
Just after the contract termination with S Entertainnt, Mu Bai was imdiately recruited under Lu Mingchen's company.
Lu Mingchen, looking at the couple on the sofa leaving everything to be handled, felt like sighing. Damn! Was he just picking up "trash"?
It's not that he looked down on Mu Bai; it's just, after reviewing Mu Bai's "past," there weren't any notable roles to her na, and she was already 24, no longer young. Nowadays, girls entering the entertainnt circle are typically young, 18, beautiful young ladies, the real stunners.
"I can't promise you'll beco a big hit, but there's definitely enough work to make a living, and no ssy cocktail parties either."
"Alright! I don't have any demands. As long as I have roles to play." When Mu Bai first entered the entertainnt industry, she aspired to hit it big, like Jiang Nuo.
But after three years, she'd co to terms with her capability. As long as she could buy a car, a house, support herself and get by as a second or third-tier actress, she wouldn't ask for more.
The scenes for Seeking Immortality were few, so they wrapped up shooting quickly.
After the filming with Jiang Nuo and Mu Qiuniang wrapped up, they treated everyone to a wrap-up banquet. Although everyone had heard about the male god's wife's cooking skills and wished for a taste, unfortunately, the male god was unwilling to let his wife tire herself out and booked a table at an advanced restaurant for everyone to enjoy.
In the evening, they even went to karaoke.
A group of young guys and girls had a blast, singing, drinking, and playing dice.
However, there's always soone who doesn't know their place, persistently hovering around people.
Su Lan, a supporting actress in Seeking Immortality, was dressed provocatively in a strappy slip dress that flaunted her curves, showing off arms and legs. A slight bend of her chest would reveal an eye-catching cleavage.
Su Lan played the role of the villainess, the Demon King's most important subordinate, and one of the most recurring villains in the entire series.
Su Lan was very ambitious, seeking every opportunity to climb up in the entertainnt industry by flattering bosses or riding on the powerful. She would do anything to leverage a boost, unashadly taking every chance.
She joined Seeking Immortality partly because her role was outstanding and partly because she heard international superstar Jiang Nuo would be there. The gold leg she currently held was nearing its limit, and she needed a new one to take her higher. Upon hearing Jiang Nuo was coming, she naturally wanted to latch on.
Unfortunately, during filming, she shared only three scenes with Jiang Nuo's character, finished within a day. Besides, ever since Jiang Nuo joined the crew, he went everywhere with his wife; she had no chance to approach him.
But tonight was Jiang Nuo's celebration feast, her only opportunity.
As soon as Mu Qiuniang stood up to leave the room, Su Lan quickly picked up her drink and darted toward the corner where Jiang Nuo was.
"Jiang Superstar," Su Lan gave a charming smile, showing her best side as she raised her glass to greet him softly, "Congratulations on wrapping up. I toast to you, bottoms up first."
"Thank you!" Jiang Nuo clinked glasses with her, taking only a sip.
Su Lan didn't mind downing her drink, then took the chance to sit beside him: "Did you know? I have been a fan of Jiang Superstar since I started my career. Your performances are just amazing; each role is a classic worthy of admiration..."
She spoke unabashedly, her gaze filled with admiration. Her crossed legs under the form-fitting skirt showed off long, fair thighs, incredibly enticing.
Especially her cleavage, which seed to peek out with every movent, giving a tantalizing glimpse. She was shorter than Jiang Huangyuan, making her more prone to being exposed to others' gazes.
Jiang Nuo frowned slightly, gentlemanly shifting his gaze away: Why didn't this woman leave after toasting? Doesn't she know he's married? Coming on to him? Shaless~
Hmph! It's still better to have a wife like his, covered up and not letting others feast their eyes for free.
"I've loved acting since I was young, but unfortunately, I've never t a truly good ntor. Jiang Superstar, you're so good at acting, is there any secret? Could you share a bit?" Su Lan asked with hopeful eyes filled with tenderness.
"Not much, just more practice," Jiang Nuo responded sowhat indifferently.
Apart from work-related matters, he didn't want to have much contact with won other than his wife. He didn't deny that friendships among the opposite sex could exist, but there needed to be boundaries. He felt he wasn't good at managing those boundaries, as it could lead to misunderstandings, so better to have minimal interaction if it could be helped.
Otherwise, out of nowhere, a "bosom buddy" might pop up, knowing even more about you than your wife, and that would be troubleso!
