Chapter 1220 - 1219: Jiang Na
Chapter 1220 - 1219: Jiang Na
It’s just a joke from a best friend, but it made me feel so touched. They’ve all been out of touch for so long, yet it’s still the same as before.
Jiang Na has been carefree since college, always enthusiastic in the dormitory, and she can’t stand people with tricks, especially someone like Yang Meili.
When Xiao Keyi told Jiang Na about this matter, Jiang Na was really angry, slapping her own table, even her legs were shaking underneath. Her agent watched with twitching eyelids—after all, she’s an artist, couldn’t she pay attention to her image? But he couldn’t remind his artist at this moment, so he could only worry behind the scenes.
"It’s really too much. That Yang Meili acts all innocent in the circle, but you all don’t know, she’s simply a little brat. Last time when we were filming, she was so arrogant, and if my status wasn’t slightly lower than hers, I really would’ve gone up and slapped her twice. She’s just too good at pretending, that male artist definitely can’t outdo her."
Talking about last time, Jiang Na got especially angry. That time, Jiang Na was the second female lead, but Yang Meili’s performance wasn’t great, so the director decided to add some ambiance for Jiang Na, and unexpectedly, Yang Meili threw a huge fit when she found out, even causing a scene in the crew.
Hearing her best friend’s complaint, Xiao Keyi couldn’t help but laugh. Actually, for someone like Jiang Na, not maintaining world peace is already quite a feat.
"Alright, alright, my lady, then if you have time let me know and we’ll head to our branch company to give it a try. If it works out, I hope you can help out. As for your appearance fee, it definitely won’t be less than yours."
After hearing Xiao Keyi’s words, Jiang Na got even angrier. She and this best friend have been through four years of college together, so why bring up money?
"Since we’re best friends, why bring me up appearance fees? What even is this appearance fee? I definitely won’t accept it from you, but you keep bringing it up, always doing this. If you keep this up, I’ll be really mad."
Right after saying this, Jiang Na hung up, while Xiao Keyi looked at her phone and couldn’t help but laugh, seeing that her best friend was indeed serious, so she never mentioned appearance fees again.
Meanwhile, the agent quickly stood up to find his sense of presence, holding Jiang Na’s schedule: "My lady, didn’t you say you wanted to participate in this production? It’s just short of signing the contract, why are you suddenly giving up? Plus, this production is a major one, it might help you skyrocket, what are you even thinking?"
The agent simply couldn’t understand, all the stars are racking their brains to squeeze into big circles, but their artist is so peculiar, doing everything according to her mood. Plus, as the company’s heiress, there’s nothing they can do, so he can only earnestly persuade her.
Jiang Na turned her head and looked at her agent. Indeed, this agent is obedient, just overly chatty.
"Enough, haven’t I seen major productions before? Seriously, isn’t it just a big production? Is it more important than my best friend? Besides, my best friend hardly asks me for anything, if you keep nagging, believe me, I’ll deal with you!"
The agent wore a bitter smile, looking like an orange.
This ancestor is so hard to serve, yet he’s the only one who can serve this ancestor. So, he turned his head, smiling at Jiang Na.
"My lady, why don’t we think of a way to pick up this period drama too, and you can do the endorsements when you have time. How does that sound?"
The agent was almost pleading; period dramas are all the rage now. If she can be associated with it, it could propel her to great heights, but he has to coax this ancestor.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Na immediately refused, touching her face and pulling a scary expression.
"What are you talking about? You want me to take this drama and then spare time for endorsements? Won’t that waste my time? Plus, working for such a prolonged period will age me, no way—I’m not taking it. It’s such a long shoot, I don’t want to go."
The agent realized persuasion was futile. After all, Jiang Na joined her family’s entertainment company for fun. Whenever she feels like it, she could exit the entertainment circle and inherit the family estate.
Forget it, since the lady has made up her mind, if he keeps persuading, the ancestor might get angrier. Seeing the agent finally stop talking, Jiang Na was delighted. This agent usually nags endlessly, but today he adjusted his personality a bit.
"Alright then, accompany me to Xiao Group’s branch company tomorrow. Oh, and don’t tell anyone, especially the fans."
Jiang Na hadn’t expected that last time at the airport, she was directly mobbed by fans, causing chaos and injuries.
Since then, Jiang Na told her company not to disclose her itinerary to fans, otherwise, it would disrupt public order.
The agent sighed looking at Jiang Na. In today’s entertainment industry, which celebrity doesn’t create some buzz when going out, hoping to trend on hot searches? But their peculiar artist doesn’t care about any of that, focusing only on public order—her enthusiasm is a bit overwhelming for him.
Meanwhile, Xiao Keyi was in a great mood, thinking about herself and Xu Ke. She had just vented her anger at Xu Ke, but Xu Ke seemed unfazed. As she considered this, she wanted to send a message but hesitated, pondering if their fight meant she automatically accepted Lan Tian’s anime promotion.
"This time I absolutely won’t back down. I’ll see if he gives in tomorrow. If he doesn’t, then I’ll still have time to yield."
After thinking this, Xiao Keyi felt her thoughts weren’t bad, incredibly pleased, humming as she returned home. Even Old Master Xiao couldn’t quite understand, wasn’t his granddaughter supposed to accompany them to find an endorsement today? But apparently, there’s no news, and it seems the entertainment side had some issues.
"What did you do today? Why are you so happy? Oh, I heard there’s some trouble at the branch company. What exactly happened? Tell me."
Upon hearing her grandfather, Xiao Keyi explained the matter in detail: "Grandpa, this is really not something you need to worry about. I’ll definitely handle this, and as for that Lan Tian artist, he might need to make some sacrifices."
