Chen Yinuo was secretly worried too. He was concerned that if they used Jiang Lingâer as the spokesperson, it might damage Chen Groupâs reputation. However, in this case, it was Chen Groupâs CEO, Chen Yinuoâs brother, who showed interest in Jiang Lingâer. So, even if Jiang Lingâer wasnât the best option, she still had a much better chance compared to other people.
Thinking about all this, Chen Yinuo nodded and said, âOf course, now weâre just waiting for Jiang Lingâerâs response. Do you believe it or not?â
Bai Xue glanced at Jiang Lingâer, her eyes filled with disdain.
She replied, âJiang Lingâer is indeed remarkable, but Little Six, you donât have to praise her too much. You wouldnât want to be proven wrong in the end.â
After a brief pause, Bai Xue continued, âIf Chen Group openly looks for a spokesperson, 1 believe many A-list celebrities would give it a try. At that time, whether Lingâer is suitable or not wonât be decided by you, Little Six.â
Hearing this, Wen Nuan immediately spoke up, âBai Xue, it seems like youâre implying that Lingâer is not as famous as you. Whatâs the point? Even if youâre more famous, Little Six didnât choose you either.â
Bai Xue said, âMiss Wen, you have a significant reputation as well. But, the fact remains that Little Six didnât choose you either, so why mock me?â
While speaking, Bai Xue portrayed herself as somewhat aggrieved, but her words were full of sarcasm.
Wen Nuan knew exactly what Bai Xue was trying to convey, but she didnât care and replied, âIndeed, he didnât choose me, but I donât feel jealous. Unlike you, who seems to be envious of everything Lingâer has thatâs better than you.â
Bai Xue said, âMiss Wen, it appears that youâve misunderstood me once again. Iâm genuinely pleased to see Lingâerâs progress.â
Bai Xue feigned an air of tranquility, making it difficult for ordinary people to detect her malicious intentions.
Wen Nuan provocatively remarked, âItâs not really important. Whatâs important is that youâre jealous of Lingâer, who excels in everything compared to you. Before, all you had was the favor of Li Yan, but looking at you two during the birthday banquet, it seemed that things werenât as great as they used to be.â
Jiang Lingâer smiled. It appeared that the bond between Bai Xue and Li Yan might not be as strong as before.
Bai Xueâs face darkened, and she retorted sarcastically, âMiss Wen, you have time to mock others, why donât you focus on improving yourself instead? This way, you wonât be left behind by Lingâer.â
Wen Nuan couldnât be easily provoked by Bai Xue. She replied, âYou donât need to stir up trouble here. The matters between Lingâer and me are none of your concern. Instead of worrying about whether 1 can keep up, you should think about who will replace you in the future.â
With a scowl, Bai Xue said, âI wonât argue with you here. Iâm just advising Lingâer not to embarrass herself. Iâve heard from Li Yan that Chen Groupâs CEO has high expectations for the artists they endorse.â
Jiang Lingâer smiled and said, âWhether itâs high or not, I donât know. What I do know is that Little Six invited me for an audition. Were you invited as well?â
Bai Xue squeezed out a smile.
Jiang Lingâer continued with a smile, âSeeing your reaction, itâs highly likely that you werenât. You must be feeling jealous, right?â
Bai Xue composed herself and said, âLingâer, you donât really have anything to make me jealous because, in all these years, Iâve never lost to you, right?â
Jiang Lingâer remained nonchalant and said, âRest assured, Iâll make sure you end up with nothing at all.â
Bai Xue let out a cold laugh and added, âTo be honest, there are many things 1 donât care about. I only need Li Yanâs love.â
She looked smug as she spoke.
Wen Nuan suddenly remarked, âIs that so? Then, at your birthday banquet, in front of everyone, Li Yan gave the first piece of cake to Lingâer. Doesnât that feel like a slap in the face?â
Bai Xue instantly felt a surge of anger but forced herself to smile, saying, âA slap in the face? Li Yan knew 1 donât like sweets, so giving it to Lingâer was just a matter of courtesy.â
Wen Nuan smiled and retorted, âThatâs right, very courteous, because he knows Lingâer likes sweets. With so many people there, he insisted on giving it to Lingâer. What do you think that means?â
Bai Xue said, âYou donât need to sow discord. I know Li Yan loves only me. Even if he has a good impression of Lingâer, he would never break off our engagement. He chose to be with me, right?â
Bai Xue maintained a smiling facade as she spoke, but she was seething with anger inside. She couldnât deny that Li Yanâs actions at the birthday banquet had been a slap in the face.
Wen Nuan smiled and said, âThatâs right, he loves only you, but it doesnât change the fact that he knew Lingâerâs lucky color is blue, and her favorite color is also blue.â
Jiang Lingâer smiled at the comment. Both her and her original self loved the color blue. However, Li Yan using blue had nothing to do with her or her original self.
Bai Xue clenched her teeth in frustration.
Her face turned menacing. Wen Nuan was a venomous woman with a wicked tongue.
Wen Nuan, still not satisfied with the reaction, continued, âYou say Li Yan knew you donât like sweets, yet he went out of his way to bake a blue-themed cake himself, cut the first slice, and gave it to Lingâer..â
