Chapter 5
Unfortunately, she impulsively presented herself at the door
She hesitated for a moment, "What does Mr. Tang think I can do for you?"
Even on ordinary days, when two people walk the red carpet together, they exchange glances with each other. This time, the good friends who acted as if they were in love have turned against each other... It is simply extraordinary
Since Qin Nuanyang entered this circle a year ago, she has truly not offended anyone, but the only person she does not get along with is Xu Yashu
The phone rang at that moment; he glanced at it and picked it up casually. He could not discern what was being said on the other end, but his brow furrowed, and his expression turned serious.
He took a slow sip of tea, and his tone was as if she had said something very foolish, "Of course, it's me who you are looking for"
Mia still remembers a time when the director praised her, saying, "On and off stage, you can completely handle it all by yourself. You are a piece of uncut jade, a piece of uncut jade with immense value; with careful carving, you will surely become a masterpiece"
Qin Nuanyang's gaze remained fixed on the script, her expression indifferent, as if she were speaking of a matter that had no bearing on her.
She saw through his intentions at a glance, and Tang Zechen was not surprised; he merely smiled slightly and said, "I need someone to manage this store."
"Just in time, you have come to me." He spoke these words slowly, watching her face turn pale inch by inch, and his gaze gradually darkened.
She is leaning by the window watching the passersby, not far from the intersection where the green light is on, and pedestrians on both sides are quickly crossing the crosswalk, their steps hurried.
In the entertainment industry, apart from the once-prominent Cheng An'an, it has been a long time since a formidable first-tier star has emerged. Without a doubt, Qin Nuanyang is the best candidate to succeed her
Mia rolled her eyes and said, "It is good, but it no longer matches your status. You need a more prominent brand to uphold your worth"
The two parties are merely in preliminary discussions, and everything is still subject to change; she cannot be considered as someone who has forcibly taken away love
When Mia returned, she still had a gloomy expression, "Why did the role change just like that?"
Miya was still curious along the way about why the name Xiaocheng sounded so familiar. It was only when they arrived at the building of Su Xiaocheng's company that it suddenly dawned on her, "No wonder it sounds so familiar; isn't she the girlfriend of our General Manager Qin?"
When Qin Nuanyang saw Xu Yashu getting off her nanny car in the afternoon, she fiercely pinched Mia's hand, showing no mercy, leaving a large bruise.
Then let's change it Her tone was light and indifferent
But who would have thought that she would actually be willing to endure humiliation and play a supporting role for her
Qin Nuanyang gritted her teeth in anger, and at this moment, she couldn't care less about offending him. She straightforwardly showed her displeasure. "Then what if I can't handle it!"
She absolutely does not believe that Li Ao is unaware of the past grievances between the two of them. Since he knows, he still allows people to join the group. It seems that Tang Zechen's actions are quite significant, perhaps he angered Li Ao when he initially suppressed Li Han.
After reading for a while, she picked up the thermos and took a sip of tea to moisten her throat. "I have made an appointment with Xiaocheng to have lunch together this afternoon. Can we leave now?"
Hearing Mia's words, she turned her head and said, "Hmm," and added, "She will be my sister-in-law in the future"
Tang Zechen shook his head and honestly told her, "I only believe that I have grasped your vital point."
Qin Nuanyang pressed her lips together and remained silent
This is still called not needing to worry
Her tone was resolute, yet it was evident from her words that she did not wish to discuss the matter further. Mia glanced at her through the rearview mirror and chose not to disturb her any longer
Miya was momentarily choked by her, and instantly lost interest in gossip. She threw out a remark, "Just wait and see, don't say I didn't warn you in advance," and then ran off
If it were her exposing his secrets, let's see how nervous he would be
However, she somewhat understood Tang Zechen's methods. Li Han would not vent his anger on her for no reason, and those photos definitely would not have suddenly surfaced after such a long time. Therefore, the only remaining explanation is that Tang Zechen is forcing her to appear
Mia thought for a moment, several major luxury brands quickly flashing through her mind. Suddenly, a spark of inspiration struck her, and she asked, "I noticed that you seem to have some connections with Mr. Tang when you were in City S. His brand's endorsements have always been difficult to secure. Since you know each other, would you like me to help you negotiate for it?"
Not to mention that she is a member of the Xingguang family, but simply because she is Qin Nuanyang, her own aura is enough to render Miya unable to move.
Hmm? She replied absentmindedly, still thinking that it would be better to change it back. After all, Li Han is also Li Ao's younger brother, and if there were a conflict, it would be herself who would feel uncomfortable.
She opened her mouth as if to say something, the words on the tip of her tongue, she raised her head to glance at her... and then she swallowed all her words back.
Miya glanced around and, seeing that no one was paying attention, lowered her voice to say: "I heard that the second female lead is coming today"
The current profession is inextricably linked to the crowd, whether it is those who like it or those who do not.
Tang Zechen glanced at her thoughtfully, "Starshine Company is the leading entertainment company in the industry. What do you think would happen if those reporters found out that you are the young lady of this company?"
However, today's profession
Miya sighed in frustration, "I suggest you occasionally pay attention to the happenings in the entertainment industry, alright?"
In an instant, she had already considered the outcome clearly and decisively refused, saying, "You might want to see if there are any suitable options; I cannot accept the endorsement from his family."
Tang Zechen lowered his head and smiled slightly, "Are you feeling nervous?"
In Qin Nuanyang's youthful memories, there are very few scenes of her going out alone. As a child, she was in poor health and was always picked up and dropped off by the guard at her grandfather's house. Later, after going abroad, her father, Qin Mo, also provided her with a complete set of drivers and servants. It seems that she has been isolated from the crowd throughout her life.
Upon thinking of this, Qin Nuanyang's expression changed repeatedly, and in the end, she could not hold back any longer. She turned around and entered her personal makeup room to avoid seeing it.
"The second male lead." She frowned and said, "I also heard one more thing."
Hearing a sound, she paused for a moment, glanced towards the door through the mirror in front of her, and upon seeing Mia, lowered her head and quietly resumed reciting her script
She glanced up at Mia and let out a soft "Hmm," not particularly concerned, "Isn't it fine to continue working with that company?"
She secretly smiled and slightly furrowed her brows
It has always been said that Tang Zechen acts decisively and ruthlessly, with a fierce and swift approach. If Qin Nuanyang had not deeply experienced this before, today she has certainly come to a thorough understanding. Moreover, he is exceedingly shameless and unscrupulous, resorting to any means necessary to achieve his goals
Uninformed individuals often see Miya being loud and Qin Nuanyang being compliant, yet what they do not realize is that the true leader between the two is Qin Nuanyang
When Mia entered, she was propping her head up with one hand, softly reciting her lines. Next to her was a thermos, the lid unscrewed and placed beside it, with wisps of hot steam rising from the opening.
What is so strange about this? She is lacking interest
Qin Nuanyang looked at him in disbelief, "What else do you know?"
Qin Nuanyang furrowed her brows and pondered for a moment, reluctantly asking: "What should I do?"
Many times, for the sake of television effects, voice actors are specifically sought to provide voiceovers for television shows or movies. Almost every character portrayed by Qin Nuanyang is completed by himself
Qin Nuanyang's mind went "buzz" for a moment, experiencing a brief blankness, and then her expression slightly changed, "What does Mr. Tang mean?"
Tang Zechen is indifferent and unrestrained, typically collaborating with top-tier celebrities both domestically and internationally. In recent years, the entertainment industry has experienced a slight downturn, with young actresses lacking prominence, and those who do have influence are not significant enough. His endorsements are usually given to foreign film stars
When Mia pulled herself away from her memories, she had already stood up and was packing her things. "First, take me to pick her up after work."
Qin Nuanyang : `` ... ... ''
She believes that her fate must be in conflict with hers, which is why it is so coincidental that she has repeatedly snatched away the endorsements she coveted and the leading roles she desired
Fortunately, she brought the script with her and sat in the car, flipping through the pages to read the script
Mia turned her head and glanced at her
Tang Zechen raised an eyebrow, a hint of interest appearing in his eyes, "It's just three cups of wine; Miss Qin wouldn't be so naive as to think that we could simply wipe the slate clean between us, would she?"
Before Qin Nuanyang was cast in "The Prosperous Capital", she was aware that the leading female role that Li Ao intended to negotiate for was Xu Yashu. However, this drama was also crucial for her career development, so after a moment's hesitation, she decided to take on the role.
But if she is unwilling
Seeing that she had agreed, he paused before saying: "You are a public figure, so when you have time, come here to sit for a while. When there is a need for you to make an appearance, just show your face, and once a month, take a look at the bills presented by the manager. You don't need to worry about anything else."
Qin Nuanyang took a sip of the water she handed over without raising his eyes and asked, "What has it been changed to?"
Qin Nuanyang truly feels like crying without tears at this moment, "Does Mr. Tang really trust me this much?"
She arrived a bit early, and Su Xiaocheng has not yet finished work; she still needs to wait for about another hour
Qin Nuanyang casually raised the phone in her hand and said, "Always caring, at all times."
Qin Nuanyang sat in her seat, but her heart was in turmoil. She knew that if she truly took over this venue, it would mean something significant; it would entangle her further with Tang Zechen, making it impossible to maintain any distance.
When she looked up, he had just hung up the phone, and his expression had softened somewhat. "What have you thought about?"
Her voice is very pleasant to hear; when she lowers it, there is an ancient charm to it, sounding as if it were like a string of jade beads, clear and crisp without any muddiness.
On the morning of the day after, Qin Nuanyang had no scenes to shoot, so she stayed at home to have lunch with her parents before heading to the film set. When she arrived on site, she unexpectedly saw Li Han, who should not have been there. Li Han, playing the third male lead, primarily had his scenes in the later stages of filming. Seeing him here gave her some insight, prompting her to send Miya to the makeup artist to inquire about the situation.
Given the tenuous relationship between them, which is as thin as a piece of paper, it is truly difficult to elevate it to a more respectable level. Moreover, it is even less likely that he would make an exception, especially considering that Qin Nuanyang is currently in a rising phase of her popularity... There is no chance.
Miya's phone just received a text message regarding the sponsorship matters of Qin Nuanyang. After a moment of contemplation, she turned to the person in the back seat and asked, "Shall we change to another sponsor?"
To be honest, Qin Nuanyang's feelings of frustration are actually more than just a little. From the moment she took the wrong bus in City S to the end of that dinner gathering, she never felt that she had offended him in any way. The only thing that might have been an issue was probably the first night she checked into the hotel. However, it seems that she was the one who suffered losses at that time
He cannot confront Tang Zechen openly, so he can only come to her for some displeasure
