Gan Lan’s words pushed the television drama to a new height. Gu Sheng was grinning from ear to ear every day when he saw the number of views. His wife laughed and said, “Do you have to do this? I think your face is going to freeze from smiling.”
“Of course. I’ve invested all my assets into this television drama. If we can’t earn money, we’ll just have to beg.” Gu Sheng said the truth happily.
Gu Sheng’s wife’s eyes widened. “What did you say? You actually invested all your assets in it?”
She walked over and grabbed Gu Sheng’s ear, starting to scold him.
The Gu couple’s matter was easy to resolve. After all, the television drama was thriving. There was no possibility of losing money.
Tan Si gritted her teeth when she saw the comments online. That was not what she wanted to see.
She had entered the entertainment industry earlier than Jiang An and had filmed many television dramas, but she had never been so popular.
Even if they had the support of fans, the number of views was the most important. These were not things that fans could do. They needed people who did not pay attention to celebrities and only watched television dramas.
However, Tan Si never chose her script well and never attracted the audience at all. Hence, even though she had acted in so many dramas, she could not compare to Jiang An.
Previously, “Cycle” had already brought her a lot of popularity. Now, “Legend of Gan Lan” had a deeper meaning. She could be nominated for awards.
Tan Si stared at the computer with an indignant expression. She felt that this glory should belong to her.
Zhao Yan walked down the stairs and saw her frowning as she stared at the computer. He asked, “What happened?”
When he walked over and saw the news about Jiang An, he understood that Tan Si must be feeling uncomfortable.
After all, she had always been jealous of her sister. The better Jiang An’s life was, the more unhappy she would be.
However, Zhao Yan did not say anything. He would not do anything to Jiang An for Tan Si. She was the successor of the Xiyun Jiang family. It was right for him to be on good terms with her.
However, Tan Si could not understand this. She lay in Zhao Yan’s arms and wheedled. “I know that your Zhao family also has an entertainment company. Can’t you contribute online?”
“You want me to find someone to write a bad review for Legend of Gan Lan?” Zhao Yan said.
Tan Si smiled and said, “This is not a troublesome matter. You can get someone to do it with just a word. My request is not too much.”
Of course, Zhao Yan had the ability to do so, but he did not want to waste his energy on such matters. He had never taken matters in the entertainment industry to heart.
Moreover, if Luo Xuan found out, he would definitely be scolded again.
Zhao Yan had the right to mobilize his entertainment company, but using such a method to cause trouble for the Jiang family was very stupid.
As one of the four major families, the Zhao family had to guard against other families attacking them. However, they had to be friendly with families far away in the Xiyun area.
Otherwise, if he offended all the families, it would definitely not end well.
Zhao Yan pushed her out of his arms. “You’d better be quiet. I won’t go against the heir of the Jiang family.”
“Heir? What heir?” Tan Si was shocked.
The Tan family was not qualified to attend those aristocratic families’ banquets. The speed at which they received the news was also very slow. Sometimes, they even had to find out about the other families from the newspapers, so they did not know what Li Mei had said at the banquet.
Seeing her smile like this, Zhao Yan said, “So you still don’t know. The Jiang family has long announced in front of everyone that the future heir is Jiang An. She will become the head of the Jiang family.”
When he said this, he kept staring at Tan Si’s face. He was happy to see that others were unhappy.
Tan Si’s eyes widened in disbelief. She finally calmed down and said, “That’s impossible. There are three brothers above Jiang An. How could they give her the position of heir? She’s a woman.”
To Tan Si’s knowledge, women did not have the right to inherit. They could only rely on their family and marry off to bring glory to the family. It was impossible for them to become the head of the family.
Even if there was such a possibility, it was because there was only one child who could recruit a son-in-law to manage the family together.
Tan Si did not want to accept this news. She was already very jealous of Jiang An’s current life and did not want to hear good news about her.
Zhao Yan smiled and asked the servant to pour him a glass of wine. “You should recognize the reality. You can’t compare to Jiang An at all. Even if she’s not the successor of the Jiang family, you can’t be compared to her.”
Tan Si did not expect this man to be so heartless. The two of them had clearly been very loving for the past few days, but he could say such derogatory words. It was obvious that he did not take her seriously..
