I just want to sell products, but you're forcing me to perform talents.

Chapter 356 My head is buzzing a little.

The news that Qiu Qing was going to have a birthday spread throughout Qiu Ye Yan Xuan.

Chen Xu and Li Hong are eating melon seeds.

"Tsk tsk tsk, it's the boss's wife's birthday, Li Hong, what do you think Brother Xian will give her as a gift?"

Li Hong thought for a moment: "Since Brother Xian is so resolute, he wouldn't just give away company shares, would he?"

"Hahaha!"

Chen Xu almost dropped the sunflower seeds she was holding from laughing: "You know what, it's actually possible. But the fact that you thought of that answer shows you're a total straight woman too!"

"Should we bring a gift?"

Li Hong was a little unsure; in the workplace, this kind of thing is the most difficult to handle.

While munching on sunflower seeds, Chen Xu said carelessly, "What's there to give? We're not even the boss's wife yet. Even if we were, she would be the one treating us to dinner, not the other way around."

Li Hong snorted, "I think you're just jealous that she became the boss's wife."

Enraged, Chen Xu grabbed a handful of sunflower seeds and shoved them into Li Hong's mouth: "You're spouting nonsense! I'll make you choke to death with these sunflower seeds!"

……

Li Xin and Duan Fei were also gossiping without a care in the world: "I'm guessing that Brother Xian will probably cook a big meal for Qiu Qing."

Why do you say that?

Duan Fei couldn't understand why it had to be a big meal.

Li Xin snorted, "That straight-laced guy Xian-ge, besides cooking delicious food, what else can he do?"

"Not necessarily, right? Back then, he sang 'I Will Wait' in front of a lot of people in the stadium square. That romantic gesture doesn't seem like something a typical straight man would do."

Li Xin also recalled this incident: "Now that you mention it, that's not necessarily true. That scene back then certainly won over a lot of girls."

Duan Fei laughed and said, "So, I feel it will definitely be a candlelight dinner."

Li Xin couldn't help but roll her eyes: "Isn't that a feast?"

Duan Fei burst out laughing.

"Should we bring a gift?"

Duan Fei had also thought of the same problem.

Without even thinking, Li Xin said, "Why bother giving a gift? We're not even close."

……

The members of Sound5 have been busy participating in various programs lately, but they also learned about this through rumors.

There's no way around it; there are a lot of women in the company, so there are a lot of small groups.

A group of beautiful girls were whispering in a hotel room.

Daniha: "It's the boss's wife's birthday! Such an important event, shouldn't we go back?"

Lily: "Why go back? Isn't our job to earn money for Brother Xian?"

Yelena: "Why not go back? At least show some respect to the boss's wife!"

Hana: "I don't feel the need to go back. Going back would mean preparing gifts! Last time it was Brother Xian's birthday, the gifts I prepared already emptied my savings."

Lily: "That's because you overestimated yourself and insisted on going toe-to-toe with Hasna."

Hasna: "..."

After arguing back and forth, the group still couldn't make up their minds, so they finally had to call their agent, Ding Zhan.

"What does Qiu Qing's birthday have to do with you?"

Ding Zhan, who is also a typical straight man, was a little confused when he heard their questions.

"How can it be no problem? She's the boss's wife!"

"Daniha said urgently."

"Just focus on your show and stop thinking about these underhanded tactics."

Ding Zhan shook his head, hung up the phone, and turned to look at Qiu's mother: "It seems like a lot of people care about your daughter's birthday."

Autumn's mother was also stunned: "How did they know?"

Sun Li chimed in from the side, "Wasn't it you who said it? You said it yourself."

Qiu's mother was dumbfounded: "What's the big deal about her birthday? It's just the family having a meal together!"

Ding Zhan shook his head and said, "That was before."

Autumn's mother wasn't stupid; she understood immediately.

Now that the company has more people, things have become more complicated.

This is the sophistication of the world.

……

7 month 1 day.

Fashion Magazine has arrived as scheduled.

Many people who were having late-night snacks immediately posted photos of the physical magazines they had.

The person on the cover is not Ye Xian.

This result was both expected and unexpected.

Everyone thought that, based on Ye Xian's actions in June, he would be able to appear in another issue.

However, looking at the cover star of this issue, everyone can't help but smile.

Chen Xu.

A flying dance underwater.

It's not Ye Xian, but it's related to Ye Xian.

[Scumbag Harvester: Hahaha, how do we calculate this result? Does it mean I'm on the cover or not?]

[Habitually adorably clueless: Chen Xu's underwater flying dance was choreographed by Xian Ge. What's the difference between having Xian Ge on the cover and not having him?]

[Hilarious! Chen Xu's figure is amazing! I feel like she's the goddess I've always imagined!]

[From a BL perspective: Although it's a bit of a pity, I think it's great! The female lead that Brother Xian promoted is on the cover, which I think is even more impressive than him being on the cover himself!]

……

Chen Xu's father, mother, and aunt looked at the "Fashion" magazine in their hands and felt somewhat incredulous.

Watching my daughter on live streams and walk the red carpet feels so distant, like it's all fake.

Print magazine!

Cover star of a print magazine!

Holding it firmly in their hands, the three of them could hardly believe it.

This little girl got featured in a magazine?

Opening the inner pages reveals the full report, detailing Chen Xu's life experiences. It focuses on her experience accompanying her best friend to an idol's audition, only to be mistakenly chosen as the lead actress. The report also comments on two of her songs and her underwater flying dance. Finally, the editor comments:

"...Chen Xu's success was partly accidental and partly inevitable."

Being chosen as the female lead in "Dream of the Red Chamber" by chance seems to be due to luck, but if her acting skills were not up to par and she did not have that kind of talent, then she would not have been chosen by Ye Xian at first glance.

Under Ye Xian's guidance, Chen Xu constantly pushed her limits and devoted herself to practicing underwater flying dance for two months. Finally, she soared into the sky and transformed into a contemporary flying goddess. We look forward to her starring role in "Dream of the Red Chamber" shining brightly, and we also look forward to her going further in her future acting career.

Because everyone can see her hard work.

She learns acting from veteran actors while filming, and when she's not filming, she studies acting skills, dance, and improves her singing. She knows she still has a lot to learn compared to others, so she is constantly improving herself.

In fact, it's not just her; every artist under Qiuye Yanxuan seems to be in such a competitive environment, as if they never tire of learning, learning, and learning again.

In Chen Xu's words, all of their efforts couldn't compare to Ye Xian's diligence. With such an idol and such a boss as a role model, none of them dared to slack off in the slightest, because lying down would mean being eliminated.

At Qiuye Yanxuan, there was no backstabbing or infighting; all the energy seemed to be focused on intense competition. To paraphrase Ye Xian's words at the graduation ceremony of the Imperial Conservatory of Music, you can lie low for a day, but not for a lifetime! If you don't work hard, you'll be left to be stepped on by your juniors to climb the ladder.

Therefore, instead of envying Chen Xu's good fortune, we should follow her example, continuously improve ourselves, and patiently wait for the flowers to bloom.

"Is our daughter really that good?"

Chen Xu's mother looked at Chen Xu's father in disbelief.

At this moment, Mr. Chen also felt his head buzzing.

Is this a compliment to my daughter?
