Chapter 124: Pull Her In
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Since they were eating at the same table, Wu Fan and Wang Ming’s conversation naturally could not be hidden from Xia Wei and Jian Tan.
Glancing at Xia Wei, who was eating seriously and looking happy and satisfied, Jian Tan couldn’t hide the smile in his eyes. He thought for a moment before asking with a smile, “Will it affect your recording of [Heartthrob TA] after you terminate your contract with Starlight? I heard from Wu Fan that Chen Yuan helped you sign the contract with the production team.”
Xia Wei had never delayed eating, so she was half full very quickly. She put down the chopsticks in her hand and took a sip of fruit juice before replying slowly, “No. Even if Chen Yuan wants to do something, Director Zhao won’t agree!”
“After all, I’m the most talked about and popular artist among the guests other than you. The production team won’t do such a loss-making business. Chen Yuan can’t reach so far! Don’t worry, I should finish filming this season completely.”
The other three people at the table had different thoughts after hearing Xia Wei’s words.
Wang Ming looked at Xia Wei with a deep gaze, as if he could not understand Xia Wei’s honesty towards Jian Tan. However, he thought of Xia Wei’s usual wit and intelligence and did not say anything. He just looked at Wu Fan silently and smiled bitterly.
Wu Fan looked at Wang Ming, then at his boss, and finally at Xia Wei. He was silent for a long time before asking gently, “Is there a company you want to go to? As long as I can give you my word, I can try to help!”
Xia Wei glanced at Wu Fan when she heard that. She was an extremely smart person. Although Jian Tan did not say anything at the side, his concerned gaze would not lie.
If Wu Fan could ask for help so directly, how could he not have Jian Tan’s instructions as his boss?
“As long as you say that, Brother Wu! As expected of my idol’s manager. You’re loyal! Of course 1 have to help, but not now. Let’s talk about it when we really need it in the future!” Xia Wei said bluntly as she smiled brightly at Wu Fan.
After saying that, she pretended to be generous and wanted to toast Wu Fan with water instead of wine to express her gratitude.
Wu Fan was stunned. He raised his bottle and recipocated.
Wu Fan was a little surprised that Xia Wei did not speak to him directly. He sized up Jian Tan silently, not knowing what he was thinking.
Jian Tan was naturally a very smart person. He understood the rejection in Xia Wei’s words. Xia Wei did not want others to interfere with her work and career.
Although he had thought that Xia Wei might reject his “help”, Jian Tan really did not expect this girl to be so unyielding and bold. He had underestimated her previously!
After figuring this out, the light in Jian Tan’s eyes became even gentler.
He looked at Xia Wei and continued gently, “It’s not easy to set up a personal studio. It’s best to put your name under some large companies. This way, you can also come into contact with more resources and develop better. For example, are you interested in someone like me?”
Xia Wei originally thought that her tactful rejection was already very obvious, but she did not expect Jian Tan to be so unpredictable.
Xia Wei frowned in confusion and asked, “Why?”
As if she felt that it was indeed inappropriate and shriveled to ask this, Xia Wei licked her lips and asked, “1 want to ask you why you’re helping me like this? Could it be that you can tell that I’m very popular? Or do you have the intention to start your own company and be the boss?”
Jian Tan shook his head helplessly when he heard Xia Wei’s words. He replied in amusement, “You’re really confident.”
Wang Ming felt that he could not understand the development of this matter. His gaze moved back and forth between Xia Wei and Jian Tan strangely!
As for Wu Fan, he looked at his boss as if he knew it.
As expected, Jian Tan “hit on” Xia Wei. Was this the legendary way for upper-class people to woo girls? They first became Xia Wei’s boss, then broke through her defense line one by one. This was the so-called “boiling the frog slowly”!
“I’m seriously suggesting that you come to Emperor. 1 hope you can consider it carefully,” Jian Tan said calmly, as if he was not helping Xia Wei suggest how to choose her future path, but saying that the glass of fruit juice in front of her was delicious..
