CH 217

Bai Lixin spoke with a straight face, so straight that Wells was speechless for a moment. On the contrary, Jonas laughed after just a slight daze: “Mitchell, relax, it’s just an advertisement. Aren’t we filming it aesthetically to make the audience enjoy it more? Besides, with a subject and gimmick like mermaids in the spring, it will also attract a lot of viewers to watch…”

The corner of his mouth on one side gently rose, revealing a smile, “Besides… I’m confident that with my appeal, I can attract a lot of attention.”

“Alright, whatever you guys want then.” Bai Lixin shrugged and stopped interacting with them, instead of returning to where he had been sitting earlier to look down at the script in earnest.

Jonas and Wells looked at each other, and Wells asked in a low voice, “What did he mean by that?”

Jonas shook his head, “I don’t know, I’ve never seen an artist so rude.” You’re not even a debutant yet, and you’re arrogant to this extent? Heh, you wouldn’t survive two episodes in the entertainment industry with that kind of personality. Jonas exhaled lightly and suppressed the uneasiness in his mind.

Yakel Music has only had three omega singers at the moment. He was the first, followed by Nigelus and then Mitchell.

As the first omega singer to be signed to the label, Jonas had become more popular than the label expected, and his status as an omega added to his hype, and many fans were attracted to his looks and pheromones.

The music company got a taste of it, and the director had even decided to introduce omegas in the past two years again in an attempt to create a second Jonas.

Jonas narrowed his eyes and secretly gritted his teeth.

There was only one Jonas in the world; how could there be a second? Replicating the same successful life, using overlapping resources, this and that, if another omega singer caught fire, his popularity would inevitably slowly fade.

How many battles did he fight for the music company when he was in the saddle? Even if he didn’t get the credit, he did the hard work. Instead of looking out for him, the music company took on two omegas this year to share resources.

He was already gnashing his teeth in anger, not only at the music company but also at the two omega singers, whom he inexplicably hated.

To secure his position in the music company, Jonas deliberately approached Bai Lixin, who had first appeared on his radar. He was now delighted to discover that Bai Lixin was still too young. With such an arrogant and insolent personality, heh, trying to replicate his success? Dream on.

Such an opponent would already be dead without needing to make a move himself. Then all that remained was Nigelus, who had a creative flair that even Borg couldn’t manage.

Jonas smiled softly, and his taut face stretched. He stood up and stretched. He was about to tell Wells that he will be leaving without appearing in any scene today. But just as he stood up, his eyes swept across the doorway, and he spotted two people coming in from outside.

As Hallyvette and director Mansley entered, they caught a glimpse of Bai Lixin in the corner of the crowd.

The golden pupils glanced at Bai Lixin. In the blink of an eye, Wells had come up and said respectfully, “President, you’re here!”

Hallyvette gave a soft “hmm” and his eyes locked on Jonas, who was standing beside him.

Hallyvette was tall and imposing, and his golden pupils were like the pupils of a ferocious beast. The scar on the left cheek of his handsome face added a touch of wildness.

Jonas met Hallyvette’s eyes for just a moment before he shivered and ducked his head.

The aura emanating from this man was too dangerous! He is not to be messed with!

“Who is he?” Hallyvette glanced at Jonas and once again looked at Wells.

Wells gulped and said stiffly, “President, let me introduce you. This is Jonas, the singer that Yakel Music is promoting, known as the “Imperial Singing Voice.”

“Jonas, this is the president of Lambert Enterprises, Mr Lambert.”

Jonas looked up, glanced at Hallyvette with watery eyes, then quickly held out his hand stiffly, “It’s a pleasure to meet you, Mr Lambert.”

Hallyvette looked down at the two men for a long moment but did not attempt to shake hands.

“Why is he here? I don’t remember him among the artists signed. ” Hallyvette spoke again.

“Yes, yes. Mr Jonas is in the show as an unpaid friend. President, I think that Mr Jonas appearing in the commercial would be the icing on the cake and would make it perfect. ”

“The icing on the cake? My mineral water ad has the pure mountain spring as the main feature, not some human being. I’ve long hinted to you that it’s better to have a popular face than a gimmick. I would rather hire a newcomer to highlight the mountain spring water than a star-studded icon to draw my customers’ attention elsewhere. ”

With those words, Hallyvette never cast another glance at the two men but walked straight to Bai Lixin.

Bai Lixin blinked as Hallyvette walked over. “May I ask if you are the spokesperson we have hired for this ad?”

The corner of Bai Lixin’s mouth twitched, “Yes, Mr Lambert.”

A smile appeared in the golden pupils as he slowly extended his hand, “Pleased to meet you. My name is Hallyvette Ben Lambert. May I ask your surname?”

Bai Lixin gave Hallyvette a quiet glare and had to extend his hand to shake Hallyvette’s while smiling as sincerely as he could, “No need, you can just call me Mitchell, Mr. Lambert.”

–Asshole, pretending you don’t know me? That’s the kind of acting you’d expect from a movie star.

–Fool, didn’t you say you wanted a hidden marriage?–

–Why are you holding my hand so tight? Let go!

–Don’t worry, just one more act, then I’ll let go.

In a few seconds, their eyes had exchanged blows, and Hallyvette’s arm was secretly forced to release Bai Lixin’s without a trace.

The crowd not far away was dumbfounded, and Well’s jaw dropped.

He gritted his teeth and looked at Jonas, who was at his side, and hurriedly whispered. “Jonas, that…why don’t you go back first? I will invite you and Mr. Borg to dinner for a detailed discussion some other day.”

Jonas licked his dry lower lip, looked at the two men in the distance, nodded, and said, “Okay, I’ll go first then.”

Twenty minutes later, Jonas, who had swarmed in like a star twenty minutes earlier, left quietly and alone with only one assistant.

Out of the corner of his eye, Bai Lixin watched Jonas’s departing back with a subtle expression.

—Hey, is it okay for you to use your privileges like this?—

—Ah, did I use my privileges? I didn’t know that.

—hehehe, but this feeling of having a backer is super cool. I like it so much

—I’ll make you like it even more tonight.

The two men locked eyes for a long time before Bai Lixin coughed and withdrew his gaze.

Wells, who was standing not far away, had a shock wave go through his heart. The big boss, who never smiled, was smiling? Smiling at this little unknown singer?

Wells stared at Bai Lixin, trying to find the reason this boy would attract the boss. The boss was a sexually dysfunctional person. So the reason why the boss looked at this boy was not that he was an omega, but because he was related to him. Is he a relative of the boss?

No, it couldn’t be. Mitchell’s parents were not related to the Lamberts at all, not by blood.

Sensing Well’s burning gaze, Hallyvette looked back at Wells and looked at Bai Lixin again. “Mr Mitchell, I listened to one of your song and loved it. It was ethereal and pure. I wondered at the time what kind of a man would be able to sing a song like that. Now that I’ve had the pleasure of meeting the man in person, I can say that he’s true to his name. The owner is also spiritual. ”

—Huh, do you think I’ll let you sleep with me at night just because you’ve complimented me like that? Dream on.

—As the gods testify, my praise for my baby is sincere.

—ahem, since you’re telling the truth, I’ll accept it reluctantly.

—and tonight?

—Don’t even think about it!

Wells winced as Hallyvette glared at him.

But then he heard the boss’s words, and it dawned on him.

It turned out that a man as cool as the boss was a fan of Mitchell’s singing! No wonder he had heard his boss’s mobile phone ringing with the song “Calling” that had recently become a hit!

Hallyvette and Bai Lixin slowly walked over, and Hallyvette said to Wells, “You have a good eye this time, to have hired Mr Mitchell.”

Wells was flattered. God knows how he hadn’t even received a compliment from his boss last year when his profits were double that of the year before. Now, over a year later, he was being praised for hiring Mitchell to endorse a mineral water commercial.

God, this must be the most unexpected praise ever!

Wells looked at Bai Lixin once again with a burning gaze. Oh my, I must protect this Mitchell in the future. This is the boss’s little idol.

With the boss’s support, this teenager’s future was just around the corner.

Bai Lixin did not pay any attention to Well’s gaze but looked at director Mansley, who was standing beside Well. With a deep bow, Bai Lixin said seriously, “Hello director, it’s nice to meet you. I like this script of yours. It’s simple, pure, and thematic. ”

Director Mansley’s eyes lit up. This boy had some vision. He was worthy of the man that Hallyvette had in mind!
