Chapter 178: An Exorbitant Demand

Yun Xiangxiang quickly recovered . After smoothing out her emotions, she said with difficulty, “I was just surprised . I have only heard of the relationship between Teacher Hua Xiangrong and Ruo Feiqun . ”

“It was the company’s fault,” He Wei regretted what had happened when he mentioned it . “They started dating because the company wanted publicity . ”

Nobody knew this better than Yun Xiangxiang did . Hua Xiangrong and Ruo Feiqun were both rising stars at that time . Both joined the same variety show . There was no plan for a couple ship in the premiere of the show .

Everything started when Ruo Feiqun insisted on appearing in the show even when he had a bad case of the cold . Yun Xiangxiang admired that part of him . She would take care of him both consciously and subconsciously in the show .

When the show aired, the editing of the show made them look like a couple . Their popularity soared . Many among the audience were shipping the “Huaruo” ship . After the end of the five-episode run of the show, Ruo Feiqun would go on to have his concert, while Hua Xiangrong’s new drama started airing .

Wen Lan and Ruo Feiqun’s agent decided to hype them up as a couple as a way to maintain their popularity .

Hua Xiangrong was disgusted about this at that time . She wanted to refuse it, but she did not have the right to . Wen Lan and the company refused her refusal .

Of all people, Ruo Feiqun did not mind it, and Hua Xiangrong’s resistance was dismissed .

She only cooperated on the surface . In every public event, Ruo Feiqun was given the cold shoulder . Even so, Ruo Feiqun’s temper was kept under control . Thanks to that, more people fell for the gentle Ruo Feiqun, thinking that Hua Xiangrong saved the galaxy in her past life [1] .

Hua Xiangrong had given Ruofeiqun the cold shoulder for a long time . Even so, Ruo Feiqun’s passion for her did not dwindle . He gave in to her every demand .

Nobody had shown her this depth of tolerance for her whole life . Especially when Ruo Feiqun came over as soon as possible during the times she was sick .

That was when they would go on to become a true couple .

“Don’t worry . I’m not going to do that kind of stuff to you,” He Wei misunderstood her concern when he saw how upset Yun Xiangxiang looked .

He Wei might not eschew the hype if it was done by someone else, but he couldn’t care less about it .

“I know . The actors that could be under Brother Wei’s wings are the ones who saved the galaxy,” Yun Xiangxiang had absolute trust in He Wei on this .

Wen Lan was a decent agent too . She might have forced Hua Xiangrong to be with Ruo Feiqun as a hype tactic, but it was for their mutual benefit .

Hype is nothing more than an act . It depended on the actor to detach themselves from their characters after the curtains are drawn .

Everyone had to stand out in the highly competitive Huan Yu Century Entertainment, no matter if it was Wen Lan or herself . At the very least, Wen Lan did not ask her to take shortcuts .

Huan Yu Century Entertainment had its fair share of staff who took shortcuts . It was just that the agents in Huan Yu dared not to coerce their actors to walk down the path of shortcuts .

Even so, if the actors were willing to do so, the agent would be glad to help them up .

Wen Lan was an expert in creating hype, but she prohibited anyone from taking advantage of her actors .

Whenever Hua Xiangrong came across such people in her past life, Wen Lan would stand up to defend her . She had always been grateful for Wen Lan .

“You don’t look like you saved the galaxy,” He Wei felt that something was wrong with Yun Xiangxiang, but he couldn’t put a finger on it .

“I’m just feeling sorry for Teacher Hua Xiangrong,” Yun Xiangxiang mumbled . “For losing out on Brother Jin . ”

That was not what she thought . Hua Xiangrong could never be a couple with Lu Jin . Hua Xiangrong would be too self-conscious .

Lu Jin was different from Ruo Feiqun . Lu Jin was the legend of the entertainment industry, whom everyone looked up to . Ruo Feiqun and Hua Xiangrong came up together .

Hua Xiangrong had already given her all when she met Lu Jin . She couldn’t muster more effort to become better for another person .

With the cards she was dealt with, she couldn’t be courageous enough to accept a man who was flawless . Even if she did not contract any terminal illness .

She bade her past farewell in this life . With a brand-new figure, she met Song Mian in her best years .

Song Mian’s care was silently nourishing . She was willing to take the leap of faith because she had ten years to climb to the shining top and became worthy of him .

Hua Xiangrong was already a broken person . Yun Xiangxiang, on the other hand, was a blank slate . She had time to become perfect — flawless .

“There’s nothing to feel sorry for,” He Wei replied flatly . “They are destined to be parallels, to never meet . ”

Lu Jin just happened to return at this point . After smoothing out her feelings, Yun Xiangxiang kept treating Lu Jin as usual .

When she heard the news of Hua Xiangrong being Lu Jin’s love, Yun Xiangxiang was dazed . However, she did not think she owed Lu Jin anything .

Hua Xiangrong had never flirted with Lu Jin since the beginning . Not to mention, Hua Xiangrong had already passed on at this point .

He Wei took Yun Xiangxiang to know some people after the fashion show . Some they had met during the charity banquet .

There were perks to showing up frequently . A few clothing brands’ representatives gave her their contact numbers .

When Yun Xiangxiang and He Wei were about to leave . An elite-looking man walked toward them and gave He Wei his business card .

“I am the Executive Assistant to the Vice President of S . V . My name is Richie,” Richie introduced himself politely . He continued, “Our company expresses its utmost desire to invite Ms . Yun Xiangxiang to be our ambassador in Asia . ”

“Mr . Richie, you sure you are not kidding?” Yun Xiangxiang thought that it was too good to be true .

The world’s top haute couture brand invites me on their own just like that?

Yun Xiangxiang could not even afford S . V . ’s clothes, let alone endorse it .

“Regrettably, this is not a joke,” Richie answered with humor . “Miss Yun, you can see our vice president right now . ”

Yun Xiangxiang and He Wei looked at each other . They consulted Lu Jin, and decided to follow Richie back to S . V . ’s company .

S . V . ’s vice president was a young man called Enzo, who was in his mid-twenties . He was inexplicably passionate about Yun Xiangxiang .

When he was negotiating with He Wei, Yun Xiangxiang noticed the occasional inquisitive gaze from him .

Yun Xiangxiang finally understood . She suddenly piped up, “Mr . Enzo, if you want me as your ambassador, I want ten million dollars of endorsement fee a year . ”

That shocking declaration made Lu Jin and He Wei stare incredulously at the smiling Yun Xiangxiang .

Enzo only frowned before nodding, “No problem at all . ”

Lu Jin and He Wei looked at Enzo as if they saw horror personalized . However, they reached a silent conclusion too .

Yun Xiangxiang kept piling her exorbitant demand, “Then what if I want a ten-year contract?”

Enzo did not agree immediately this time . He answered indirectly, “We need to decide this through a conference . ”

Yun Xiangxiang smiled . She stood up, “Mr . Enzo, I thank you for thinking so highly of me . I don’t think I can take on this job . ”

He Wei and Lu Jin stood up too . Enzo quickly attempted persuading her, “Miss Yun, please give me some time!”

Yun Xiangxiang stopped in her tracks . She turned around to look at Enzo, “Mr . Enzo, please tell Mr . Lucifer this: Sow nothing, reap nothing . ”

When a major brand asked her, a little celebrity, to be ambassador, and even gave in to her exorbitant demands, it was obvious that someone was behind them .

They did not even bat an eye when she asked for an annual fee of ten million dollars . Song Mian would not insult her like this . It could only be Lucifer, the stupid, rich man .
