"Okay," Chang Xi hailed a taxi on the roadside, and arrived at Unique Entertainment in just ten minutes.
Seeing Ran Qingqing walking over from afar, she raised her hand to greet her, "Hello."
Ran Qingqing acted as if she hadn't seen her and walked away.
"Huh? Am I that annoying?" Chang Xi tilted her head and asked Lan Lan, who came downstairs to pick her up.
Lanlan pouted, "You two have a grudge, you forgot? Ran Qingqing had an endorsement before, but the company felt she wasn't suitable and didn't renew the contract when it expired, so they turned their attention to you instead."
You were unemployed at the time, and I consulted with higher-ups who said it was okay to give you a try, so I gave it to you. The GG photoshoot turned out very well, even surpassing Ran Qingqing's previous endorsements.
Her fans then came to the company entrance to protest, boycotting the merchant's products and accusing her of favoritism, demanding that Ran Qingqing's things be returned to her. I laughed. It's not like we stole them; the merchant themselves felt Ran Qingqing wasn't suitable and replaced her when her contract expired.
"Who's really the one with connections? Ran Qingqing publicly maintains a single image, but then she turns around and starts flirting with our boss. The company's major resources are already being allocated to her, and yet the fans are still not satisfied."
"Ambiguous, but not actually together?" Chang Xi was even more curious about this.
"Yeah, our boss is a bit of a simpleton. He insisted on his innocence even though they weren't together, saying he wanted to protect Ran Qingqing's reputation. Even if a zombie ate his brain, they'd still call him a love-struck fool."
"Aren't you afraid he'll hear you complaining about him like that?" Chang Xi asked.
"Don't worry, the boss definitely won't be here at this time."
"Is that so?" Gu Qingfeng's voice rang out above the two of them.
"Oh, hello boss!" Lanlan turned around with a fawning smile. "When did you arrive?"
"When you called me love-struck," Gu Qingfeng said with a half-smile, walking past the two of them toward his office.
Chang Xi smiled gloatingly and pushed Lan Lan as they entered Gu Qingfeng's office.
"Take a look at the contract. If there are no problems, sign it," Gu Qingfeng replied to his elders in the family group chat while looking down at his phone.
[Tang Wan: Did that charlatan you mentioned really say Xiao Bao is still alive? @Gu Er]
[Gu Qingheng: Mom, Second Brother already said that woman is a charlatan and can't make accurate predictions. If you want your fortune told, I'll take you to Wudang Mountain another day to see Master Qingyang; he's more authoritative.]
[Gu Qingfeng: Exactly, she even said my death was imminent.]
Tang Wan: Okay, let's go tomorrow then.
[Gu Ruqin: Mom, I'll go with you.]
Chang Xi picked up the contract. "What's with this variety show? Why do I have to film a variety show before I can terminate my contract?"
Gu Qingfeng glanced at it and said, "This variety show was one you took on before you proposed terminating your contract. It's the dating show that you messed up."
"Hasn't it already turned yellow?"
Lanlan forgot to mention, "Later, the director changed the name to an adventure variety show. According to the contract, you still had to continue filming, but the director received compensation from the four guests who were involved in the landslide and was willing to give you more money to turn you from a guest to a regular cast member."
"How much?" Chang Xi was more concerned about the price.
"This number," Lanlan said, holding up two fingers.
"Two hundred thousand?"
"Two million, for a total of twelve installments."
"Sure, sure!" Chang Xi nodded hurriedly. She needed the money right now, as her new home still needed renovations.
After confirming everything was correct, the contract was signed.
"Okay, once the process is complete, you can leave Unique Entertainment," Gu Qingfeng waved his hand, signaling them to leave.
Chang Xi stood up, a glint of light flashing in his eyes, "President Gu, I'd like to give you a gift after our meeting."
She took a yellow talisman from her pocket and placed it on the table. "Don't get it wet, don't leave it with you, and drive safely. I hope to see you safe and sound when I come back after recording the first episode."
"Children say the darndest things!" Lanlan immediately covered her mouth and dragged her away.
Gu Qingfeng was furious; this person had cursed him once and twice.
He picked up the yellow talisman to throw it in the trash, but then thought: This person did say something nice; at least he said his sister was alive and well. Although his words were harsh, they came from a place of concern. Oh well, I'll keep it.
Gu Qingfeng folded the yellow talisman twice and put it into his shirt pocket.
Lanlan prepared everything Changxi needed for the show recording like a mother hen, and sitting in the airport waiting room, she wondered, "Why is the production crew so late?"
She glanced at her phone; the production team had decided at the last minute not to show up, saying they would wait for them at the filming location.
"It's okay if we don't take pictures at the airport," Lanlan said, not taking it to heart, and turned back to continue talking about Changxi.
[Hehehe, actually filming has already started, but the guests just don't know it's being filmed secretly.]
[I knew Director Hao Ren wasn't a good person; only he could come up with such a despicable idea.]
It's a pity that Qingqing is busy filming, unlike Changxi who has plenty of free time and can still come to record variety shows.
Focus on your own business and refrain from meddling in other people's affairs.
Chang Xi's eyes darted around, his gaze fixed on the Xiaoxue store in the distance.
She sat on one of the small suitcases, opened it, and left.
Lanlan looked down at the person gliding away, completely bewildered. What just passed by?
Chang Xi has slipped away?!
No, she rode off with her suitcase.
"I want to gallop my horse into your arms, to unravel the mystery of longing, the dream of a thousand years!"
The only drawback is that the suitcase speaker doesn't allow you to set your own favorite songs.
Chang Xi decided to give the manufacturer some suggestions as soon as possible.
The airport was sparsely populated with few people, so Changxi drove slowly.
But accidents always happen very suddenly.
A small figure, as big as a cannonball, rushed out from the side.
Hey! Which scoundrel dares to plot against me?!
A five- or six-year-old boy rushed out and bumped into Chang Xi's suitcase.
Chang Xi and her suitcase fell out of the room, but fortunately she reacted quickly enough to not only steady herself but also her suitcase.
The little boy fell to the ground, and started crying loudly, blaming, "Why didn't you catch me?"
"Why should I catch you, you're like a little cannonball?" Chang Xi adjusted his sunglasses and sat back down.
The boy stood up angrily, his little belly puffing out like a cannonball. "I'm not! I'm a prince!"
"The Frog Prince?" Chang Xi thought of this.
"Hmph! Woman, you've successfully caught my attention!" The prince crossed his arms. "But I will never fall for a commoner like you. Forget about it!"
Chang Xi's teeth itched, and he searched around for something handy.
"What are you doing?"
"Looking for something, to give you a complete childhood," Chang Xi searched for a long time, then pulled out a black iron umbrella, pretending to hit him.
A man grasped Chang Xi's wrist, smiling warmly, "Xiao Xi, don't be so harsh on the child, be gentler."
"Uncle, who are you?" Chang Xi frowned, her gaze falling on the hand that was holding hers.
"My name is Xu Shenglong. I'm one of the guests on 'Let's Go.' I'm only five years older than you, so you can just call me brother," Xu Shenglong said with a smile, but he didn't pull his hand away and kept holding Chang Xi's hand.
