Chapter 520: Untitled
Xue Zhen gritted her teeth in disappointment.
Why is this girl so insensible? Does she not know that if she wants to make a name for herself in the industry, a good sponsor is very important?
Doesn’t she know?
Despite that, An Yuan had never shown any interest in that sort of thing.
In the past, Xue Zhen had asked An Yuan to get to know the big bosses more, coax them, and even sacrifice her looks when necessary. That was the norm in the entertainment industry, after all. But the actress had ignored it all.
In any case, An Yuan was stubborn. No matter how much Xue Zhen tried to persuade her, she would not even consider having a sponsor or a sugar daddy. Due to this, she had lost a few good roles. Yet, she did not seem to regret it at all. She still did whatever she wanted.
Xue Zhen didn’t know if she should say that An Yuan had principles or was arrogant.
In Xue Zhen’s eyes, it was a pity that An Yuan could not find a proper sponsor to get further in her career. She felt that someone with An Yuan’s temper might not be able to survive in the industry.
Of course, it was understandable that An Yuan did not like those old and greasy men. However, Sheng Tianci was a young and handsome rich young master. Does she not like him too?
Xue Zhen could not understand what An Yuan was thinking.
Or is she just obsessed with Su Shengjing?
Xue Zhen thought about how the superstar that she had groomed herself had fallen for a nonsensical celebrity who had no background, no education, and was nothing but an idiot who only knew how to make use of his daughter to create hype. It made her furious.
To her, it felt like giving away a game account that she had worked so hard to build and maintain.
When An Yuan returned to the set, Xue Zhen immediately walked over and asked her, “Little Yuan, the person who spoke to you earlier was the young master of the Sheng Family, right?”
An Yuan had a vague idea why her manager had asked this question. She frowned and answered, “Yes, his name is Sheng Tianci. He’s the third son in the Sheng family.”
“Oh, so you know that he’s third. That means you two must have had a good chat, right?” Xue Zhen’s tone was implying something.
“We were high school classmates.”
As soon as An Yuan mentioned this, Xue Zhen’s eyes lit up. “High school classmates? That’s great! Little Yuan, why didn’t you say earlier that you had such a high school classmate? If you had gotten into a relationship with him earlier, your career would have been so much more straightforward!
“Do you still remember how many competitors you had to defeat before you could get the roles you wanted? But it would have been so different if you had let him help you. Who knows, he might have been able to give you a good role with just a word!”
Xue Zhen spoke enthusiastically. She deliberately lowered her voice and continued, “How is your relationship with him now? Why don’t you introduce me to him? I’ll let him take care of you.”
Not only could he take care of An Yuan, but if she were to encounter any problems in the future, she might be able to ask him for help. Things would definitely be much easier.
Since An Yuan did not intend to renew the contract with her, Xue Zhen had to make use of her now.
However, An Yuan had worked with her for a few years, so she understood her manager’s thoughts.
Take care of me?
It sounded nice, but she knew Xue Zhen just wanted to get some benefits from her before she left.
An Yuan gave a faint smile. “I haven’t seen him for a few years. This is our first time meeting for real. What do you think our relationship is like?”
Xue Zhen choked, then anxiously said, “You might not have seen each other for a few years, but you’re still high school classmates, and that can’t be changed. Little Yuan, interpersonal relationships are important in work, so don’t waste your resources!”
As Xue Zhen was speaking, she suddenly saw the little girl running over to them.
As if she had heard Xue Zhen’s and An Yuan’s words, the little girl tilted her head and said with a puzzled expression, “Auntie, you’re right. That’s Pretty Sister’s resource. But she’s not in a hurry, so why are you in a hurry?”
