Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In order to help Jiang Ling’er not feel awkward, Wen Nuan said, “CEO Li, I’m still with Ling’er here. I’m also her security guard.”

Then, she looked at the people around her and continued, “Everyone, let me introduce myself. I’m the Wen family’s daughter. Like CEO Li, I’m Jiang Ling’er’s bodyguard.”

Everyone was in an uproar and some of them even looked at Old Master Wen.

Old Master Wen, who was in the crowd, was surprised but did not stop his granddaughter.

Gu Hanhan looked at Jiang Ling’er with jealousy.

On the other hand, Gu Wu noticed that she wasn’t in a good mood. He immediately said, “Hanhan, are you tired? Let me send you home.”

Only then did Gu Hanhan come back to her senses. She was not drunk, nor was she tired. She also knew that she had no face to stay here anymore.

Gu Hanhan could not affect Gu Wu because of her. She said, “Just ask the driver to send me,”

“Alright, be careful. Tell me when you get home.” Gu Wu nodded.

She nodded, then said goodbye to everyone apologetically before turning to leave.

In the blink of an eye, it was the night of the TV series.

Jiang Ling’er changed into her costume according to the director’s instructions. After putting on her makeup, she chatted with the other actors in the waiting room.

At around 6:30 pm, the director walked in.

He looked at everyone and was very satisfied. He asked, “How’s the preparation going?”

“We’re almost done here,” said the makeup artist. “We should also be done on the other side soon.”

“Alright, everyone knows where they should stand, right?” the director asked, satisfied. “Be sure not to panic.”

Everyone nodded. They were all very clear about their positions.

The director walked to Jiang Ling’er’s side. He said, “Miss Jiang, stand beside the second male lead when we take the photo later.”

Jiang Ling’er was stunned. She looked at him and said, “Director, even if the second female lead isn’t here today, it wouldn’t be good for me to stand beside the second male lead, no?”

At seven o’clock, the meet-and-greet officially began.

“Director, why did you choose Miss Jiang to make a cameo?” someone asked amongst the people.

The director glanced at Jiang Ling’er. “Miss Jiang, you can pretend you didn’t hear what I’m about to say next.”

“No problem. I’ll pretend to be deaf,” said Jiang Ling’er with a smile.

He looked at everyone and said with a sigh, “You all know that our production team doesn’t have much money. At that time, the actor for this role asked us to increase their pay at the last minute. We didn’t have any money to begin with, so how could we accomplish that? Coincidentally, Miss Jiang helped appear another role, and her acting skills are very good. Moreover, she never asked for any compensation.”

When Jiang Ling’er heard this, she wanted to laugh. She whispered, “That’s because the pay wasn’t worth asking. It was too low!”

The second male lead stood at the side and whispered, “Miss Jiang, didn’t you say that you would be deaf?”

Jiang Ling’er said innocently, “Hmm? What was that? I couldn’t hear you.”

A few days after the meet-and-greet ended, Li Yan returned to China and held an internal meeting on the day he returned.

The meeting room was very quiet.

He swept his cold gaze across the crowd.

Everyone sat there obediently, not daring to speak.

Wang Wei was sitting next to Li Yu, waiting for Li Yan to call out his name.

“Vice President Wang, tell everyone about the company’s recent situation,” Li Yan said after a while.

Seeing Li Yan’s gloomy face, Wang Wei first reflected on himself, then talked about everything and suggested that Bai Xue’s career be frozen.

Hearing Wang Wei say what he was planning to do, everyone became nervous.

Wasn’t he just publicly pressuring Li Yan?

Just when everyone thought that Wang Wei was done for, Li Yan said, “Mm, that’s a good suggestion. Let’s go with your plan.”

Everyone was surprised. They all thought that Li Yan would be furious and even fire Wang Wei.

Wang Wei himself was also very shocked. He had only said it to gamble his chances, but he actually succeeded?

Hearing this, Bai Xue’s face turned pale. She thought that Li Yan would be able to continue calling the shots once he returned. However, she never expected that he would agree to put her career on hold.

She had indeed worked as a hostess on a stage before, but Li Yan was her first man!

Bai Xue was extremely unwilling to accept this. However, on such an occasion, she did not dare to say anything.

After the meeting ended, she ignored her assistant and barged into Li Yan’s office.

Li Yan frowned when he saw the angry look on Bai Xue’s face. It seemed that her innocent and harmless look before this was all fake.

He asked, “What is it?”

It wasn’t that Bai Xue hadn’t seen Li Yan’s indifference before, but he had only done this toward outsiders. This time, he was giving her that very treatment.

“Li Yan!” Bai Xue said with tears in her eyes.. “I admit that I was wrong for lying to you, but I’ve always been sincere!”
