Chapter 1221 - 1220: Our Idol Works Hard
Unexpectedly, when the elder Xiao heard this, he looked at his granddaughter with extreme disappointment. If the artists in his own company didn’t do anything wrong, why should they sacrifice for this matter? Moreover, the Xiao Group absolutely would not allow anyone to bully them.
"Alright, just listen to Xu Ke on this matter."
Unexpectedly, even her grandfather supported Xu Ke. Now Xiao Keyi really couldn’t understand why her grandfather would support Xu Ke. Could it be that what Xu Ke thought was really right? Lan Tian hasn’t been saved yet, and with Yang Meili’s current status in the entertainment industry...
After seeing her grandfather say this, Xiao Keyi decided to let it go. Anyway, Xu Ke had already agreed with others. Let’s see tomorrow.
Upon returning home, Xu Ke watched the anime from the beginning again. If this anime were released now, there would only be 5 episodes updated, and almost every week they invested heavily to update it. If there’s no money, the updates might be delayed a lot.
The next day, Lan Tian came early because President Yang and his agent didn’t allow Lan Tian to come, but Lan Tian thought he should still come and try. So he arrived at the branch office early with a cap, but unexpectedly was stopped by the receptionist.
As soon as the receptionist saw Lan Tian, she immediately thought of some scumbag and looked at Lan Tian with resentment.
"You scumbag! How dare you take advantage of our Meili, and there’s no way you’re getting into our company!"
Upon hearing the receptionist’s words, Lan Tian was instantly embarrassed. Who would have thought he would face contempt from the receptionist just trying to get into a company, and he didn’t even ask for Xu Ke’s phone number yesterday.
While he was hesitating, delivering breakfast, Xiao Keyi saw Lan Tian’s shadow, frowned slightly, although she didn’t want Lan Tian to come, she had already invited her best friend.
"Alright, come with me."
After Xiao Keyi spoke, Lan Tian’s eyes lit up. Unexpectedly, it was the young lady he saw yesterday. He followed Xiao Keyi to the CEO’s office upstairs.
But the receptionist’s face turned pale, fearing the young lady might have heard her earlier words. She liked Yang Meili particularly, so she didn’t grasp the proper measure. What would she do if the young lady heard her?
"You young girls just idolize these celebrities. Now you get a taste of your own medicine."
A male employee clocking in voiced that. These male employees most despise how these girls idolize celebrities. But upon hearing this, the receptionist nearly fought with the male employee for insulting her idol, finding it truly excessive.
"What do you know? Our Meili works very hard, yet you dare deny her efforts. You are simply too much."
"If you don’t love, don’t hurt, can you?"
The male employee sneered. What does a receptionist know?
"Who in the entertainment industry is truly clean and still acts innocent? Yang Meili is just building a facade, fooling you little girls. You truly believe it, but who would want a woman like you, arguing for a celebrity?"
After the male employee spoke, he left, and the receptionist stomped her feet there, while other employees were particularly unhappy upon hearing this, especially some men who felt that pure girls like Yang Meili shouldn’t be spoken of like that.
Upon reaching the office, Lan Tian was particularly reserved, while Xiao Keyi placed the breakfast on the table, looking at Lan Tian and taking a breath.
"Alright, wait for him here. By the way, let me tell you I’ve invited someone from the entertainment industry that you know, Jiang Na."
Hearing Xiao Keyi’s words, Lan Tian’s face turned even paler, not expecting the branch had already invited another artist. So, what should he do?
Could it be that Xu Ke gave him hope yesterday only to make him more desperate? Lan Tian originally wanted to leave but thought if he went down now, the ridicule would be bigger. Better wait here; he believed Xu Ke would give him some explanation.
Xiao Keyi sighed and left, just as she was about to go, her best friend’s call came unexpectedly.
"Yiyi, I’m coming to your branch company today, you have to wait for me there, okay? I want to have lunch with you this noon. By the way, I heard you’ve entered the headquarters, can you come over at noon?"
Upon hearing her best friend’s voice, Xiao Keyi’s mood improved greatly: "Since you’re coming over, I will wait for you at the branch. Besides, I’m currently at the branch. Is there anything you need me to help with?"
"Alright, I don’t need your help. Besides, I hate fans crowding me, so I didn’t notify them. They shouldn’t know, and when I arrive, don’t let your company people be too surprised."
After finishing the call, Xiao Keyi opened the office door again and sat down, making Lan Tian even more nervous. Faced with Xiao Keyi, Lan Tian was still a bit fearful, while Xiao Keyi opened Xu Ke’s computer to handle emails from headquarters.
When Xu Ke arrived, he saw this scene; Lan Tian saw Xu Ke and immediately stood up.
"Xu, you’re finally here. I’m really sorry, I came a bit early. Did I disturb you?"
Xu Ke glanced at Lan Tian, noticing faint dark circles under his eyes. It seemed he hadn’t rested well last night, probably because of these past couple of days’ events. So he nodded slightly.
"Don’t be nervous, whatever the issue, we’ll solve it together. There’s no need to be so tense."
At this moment, Xiao Keyi had almost finished handling headquarters’ emails, leaning back in the chair with a face of fatigue, taking Xu Ke’s water for a sip, and suddenly smiled at Xu Ke, thinking yesterday they had argued, Xu Ke might ignore her today.
"My best friend will come soon, she’s Jiang Na from the entertainment industry. Anyway, it doesn’t matter if there’s one more celebrity. Yesterday, I told grandpa about Lan Tian’s matter. He also supports your decision, so just take care of it."
Unexpectedly, Xiao Keyi had invited another of the entertainment industry’s popular figures, Jiang Na, Xu Ke didn’t feel it was appropriate to refuse, as she was Xiao Keyi’s best friend. Originally, the promotional video needed only one person, but with two, it was fine too.
As they were chatting, unexpectedly the receptionist brought Jiang Na up. When Jiang Na arrived, she was heavily bundled up, wearing a mask and hat, almost unrecognizable. She immediately removed her hat and mask upon entering and revealed a small face.
"Ah, I finally made it in. On the way, I was terrified, seemed like I ran into a fan. Luckily, the fan didn’t recognize me."
Upon seeing her best friend, Xiao Keyi’s mood immediately improved and she walked toward her.
"I thought you were going to take a few days, didn’t expect you today. Are you not busy these days? Weren’t you talking about taking a role in a costume drama?"
