Supreme Heir Son-in-law

Chapter 1222 - 1221: The Spokesperson’s Decision

Once Xiao Keyi said that, the agent of Jiang Na, who was following behind, immediately pulled a long face. Everyone knew their little star was about to take on a new role.

But this little star didn’t seem to have a clue and wanted to go on a vacation. What can be done?

"You’re right, she even turned down that other period drama, saying she won’t do it anymore. I can’t persuade her now. You two are close, maybe you could say something to her."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Na immediately stared at her agent with big eyes. How dare her agent reveal her inside information? She didn’t want to burden Xiao Keyi with this while helping her out, so she hadn’t mentioned it. Yet, the agent still dared to say it out loud.

When Xiao Keyi heard this, she was stunned. Wasn’t that period drama very popular recently? If Jiang Na really took it, she might even surpass Yang Meili in popularity.

"What’s wrong? Why aren’t you taking it? Is it because of me? If that’s the case, don’t hold back because of me. I have other artists, you see, the one sitting on the sofa."

Jiang Na stomped hard on her agent’s foot with a high heel to stop her from revealing more. The agent, understanding Jiang Na’s warning, dared not speak further and just pouted.

But Jiang Na simply smiled and took hold of her friend’s arm.

"Alright, alright. Don’t worry about it. I just don’t want to be too tired lately. Think about it, I don’t lack money, so why tire myself out? I’ve decided not to take that period drama, especially since it’s so hot in the summer—would you really bear to watch me do it?"

Hearing Jiang Na say this, Xiao Keyi was relieved. Thankfully, it wasn’t because of her. If Jiang Na’s decision was due to her, she would feel really bad.

At this point, Xu Ke glanced at Jiang Na. Indeed, she belonged to the entertainment circle, dressed fashionably. But, unlike Xiao Keyi’s sweet and beautiful style, Jiang Na leaned more towards the mature, older-sister vibe.

Xu Ke’s gaze moved toward Jiang Na, which made Xiao Keyi extremely uncomfortable. How dare he look at her best friend like that? It was too much, and she hadn’t dealt with him lately.

Noticing Xiao Keyi’s glare, Xu Ke covered his mouth and coughed lightly.

"I am Xu Ke, the president of the branch office. I’m delighted you could endorse our animation product. Let’s discuss the details."

With Xu Ke’s words, Xiao Keyi’s anger subsided slightly.

Jiang Na knew her friend’s personality well and, seeing her interaction with Xu Ke, had a clearer idea. Smiling at her friend, she thought maybe Xiao Keyi was interested in him this time.

She hoped her friend could find a good home this time. As she looked at Xu Ke, Jiang Na didn’t expect to see someone so naturally good-looking in the entertainment industry, where most people relied on makeup. Xu Ke looked untouched, as if crafted by the heavens.

Jiang Na jokingly said, "I didn’t expect the branch’s president to be such a handsome man. No wonder you keep going to the branch, Yiyi. If it were me, I’d be there every day, too."

Hearing Jiang Na’s words, Xiao Keyi felt a sense of crisis but managed to force a smile. "Stop teasing, we’re just colleagues. Let’s discuss other matters."

She introduced a few people, and Jiang Na noticed Lan Tian. She had seen this diligent young boy on a set nearby, but didn’t expect the trouble magnet to be him.

"Young man, why is it you caught in trouble? Being so well-behaved, encountering someone as vicious as Yang Meili, don’t worry, your sister will help you."

Lan Tian felt utterly confused hearing Jiang Na, as he had never met this actress. Moreover, calling her ’sister’? She was the stunning and popular Jiang Na!

"We don’t know each other..."

The honesty of the boy made Jiang Na laugh. The boy indeed didn’t know her; she had just noticed him during a makeup break and remembered him.

After discussing for a while, Xiao Keyi initially thought having one person was enough, and with the recent scandals surrounding Lan Tian, it seemed difficult for him to be free. But Xu Ke insisted on either having two, or just Lan Tian on his own.

"What’s there to argue about? The two of us can go. Besides, isn’t his appearance fee relatively low? It’s not like your company can’t afford us, right? Rest assured, just provide drinks, nothing else matters. I don’t even need the appearance fee."

After Jiang Na spoke, Lan Tian widened his eyes. For the big star Jiang Na not to want an appearance fee? He felt even more embarrassed.

"As long as you guys want me, I don’t need any appearance fee. Just hope I won’t cause you any trouble."

Seeing Lan Tian so sensible, even Xiao Keyi couldn’t say much more. She took the two of them for a tryout, and surprisingly, the roles fit perfectly.

"Since that’s the case, let’s not waste time. By this Wednesday, we’ll finalize this and can release the announcement now."

After Xu Ke finalized it, Jiang Na and Lan Tian agreed to come over in a few days. However, Lan Tian felt troubled, fearing pressure from the entertainment company.

"Don’t worry, kiddo. With your sister around, no one will dare bully you. And as for Yang Meili, always masking herself—just wait until I tear that mask off."

With Jiang Na’s assurance, Lan Tian felt much more at ease, yet he felt endlessly grateful to these people. In his darkest times, when everyone believed the rumors he bullied Yang Meili, only these few trusted him and gave him a chance.

That night, fans of Jiang Na were stunned when she announced it. Wasn’t she not accepting endorsements? Why did she accept now? Was there some unspeakable secret? It seemed the branch president and Jiang Na had an extraordinary relationship.

"My God, I disagree! How can our Nana be with that president? No matter how capable he is, I don’t think he deserves our Nana."

"Exactly, our Nana should be with a gentle little puppy-type guy. That president doesn’t look like a good person."

"Wuwuwu, heartache!"
