Chapter 289: A Talk with Li Lei


Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios


“Alright, they’re all equipment.” Xia Ling accepted her fate. This was the difference between a female star and a male star. A male star could wear anything on the streets, and the public would still accept him, but what about a female star? She would be scrutinized for their beauty and fas.h.i.+on. If there were the slightest mismatch, she would be mocked for a very long time, and it would affect her public image.


“First, buy a few basic pieces.” Lin Yunan said. “As for the others, wait until after you have asked your stylist and image consultant before you buy them. If there are no other questions, I will help you hire these few people. Also, regarding your a.s.sistant, how about you hire Wei Wei?”


“Continue to use Wei Wei?” Xia Ling asked.


“Why, are you not satisfied with her?”


“No.” Xia Ling hesitated. “I just left Skyart Entertainment, to poach an employee is…”


Lin Yunan laughed, but it still sounded like a sneer. “You’re only poaching a small a.s.sistant, not Mai Na or Wei Shaoyin. Li Lei won’t be that petty, right? I advise you, do not randomly change your a.s.sistant. It’s better to use someone who you are familiar with and knows you thoroughly. Furthermore… what if you replace Wei Wei and she starts spreading gossip about you?”


Xia Ling realized she had neglected his last sentence.


However, it was true that Wei Wei was a good a.s.sistant. She was smart, loyal, and agreeable.


“No opinion? I will negotiate with Skyart then.” As Lin Yunan spoke, he wrote the task down in his work planner and asked Xia Ling about the arrangements regarding her endors.e.m.e.nt with Gu Financial Magnate before letting her go.


Xia Ling left the office and looked at the time. Only an hour had pa.s.sed.


However, she felt that she had been talking with this very intense manager for the entire afternoon, and until now, she was still very tense. She rubbed her slightly aching temple and did not know whether it was a mistake to have looked for such a Spartan manager. She lightly shook her head and walked out of the Dongyue Culture and Entertainment building.


A few days later, there was good news from Lin Yunan. Wei Wei had already moved to Dongyue and would remain her a.s.sistant.


Seeing Wei Wei was like seeing Xia Ling’s own relative. Wei Wei was also thrilled to continue a.s.sisting Sister Xiao Ling whom she respected and was elated when she was offered the job again.


She started to help Xia Ling buy a car.


This girl was competent and created a list of cars on the market that cost around three million dollars which were suitable for young girls in a few days. The details were sorted into folders and printed out for Xia Ling to read.


Xia Ling chose a silver Porsche. It was luxurious and fas.h.i.+onable but not too flashy.


Wei Wei did all the formalities for her and obtained the car in a few days.


Lin Yunan had also finished a.s.sembling a stylish and public relations team.


Xia Ling lamented at the state of her wallet. Her career in Dongyue had officially begun.


Lin Yunan’s first step was to increase the number of songs she released. She could only release her own alb.u.m and organize a concert when she had enough songs. When the sales of the alb.u.m started dropping, a concert was especially able to help her earn more money and had a greater impact on her popularity. At the same time, it also showed her status as a singer.


To ensure the plan was successful, she relentlessly recorded songs.


From then on, she usually collapsed on her bed when she returned home because she was extremely worn out.


She even forgot which day Li Lei was coming back. When he appeared in front of her house with a large bouquet of flowers, she almost thought that he was an illusion.


“You’re back!” In a flash, she exclaimed in surprise. She found herself thinking a lot about him these few days.


Li Lei joyfully pa.s.sed her the flowers and hugged her. “You’ve lost weight.” He commented.


“You’re the one who lost weight.” She lightly wrapped her arms around his waist and was a little upset. “Didn’t I tell you to eat your meals properly when you are overseas?”


Due to her small actions, his lips curved into a smile and the heavy feeling that he had when he knocked on her door almost disappeared. “I’ve brought some delicious nuts back and a gift to celebrate your progress in your career — a set of beautiful shawls and scarves which will be enough for you to wear during this fall and winter.”


He took notice when Gu Lin spoiled her red wool blanket some time ago. Since it was going to be autumn soon, he bought the beautiful and comfortable items that he saw when he was abroad.


She opened his gift and took out the red wool shawl that resembled the blanket that she had in the past. It was very pretty, and the charming colors matched her skin tone. “Thank you.” She smiled.


“Don’t be so polite.”


“You…” She deepened her smile but hesitated for a while. “Aren’t you being very kind to me? Li Lei, I’ve heard it all from Lin Yunan. The percentage of sales of my singles that you gave me was incredibly high. It turns out that you have been taking care of me for a long time.” After learning about this, she always wanted to thank him in person, and now she had the chance.


He was shocked. He didn’t think that someone would see through his quiet plan of treating her well.


“Are you happy working with Lin Yunan?” He acted as if it did not bother him.


“Him?” As Xia Ling brewed tea for Li Lei, she thought about it. “He’s not bad and quite serious. He takes care of every aspect very well for me. Sure enough, looking for him to be my manager was the right thing to do.”


Sure enough?


Li Lei sharply noticed this keyword. So, there was someone who recommended Lin Yunan to her?


It seemed that the investigation report that Tan Ying gave him was right…


Li Lei’s expression was dark as he looked at her back view, but he sounded totally unconcerned. “I’m very curious about why you thought of looking for Lin Yunan. Did someone recommend him to you?”


“No.” Xia Ling said reflexively. Her hand slightly stopped as she back faced Li Lei while pouring the tea. She lowered her head and recited the lie that she had conjured with Lin Yunan. “He was the one who took the initiative to find me. After managing many kings and queens of the movie industry and a king status singer, he only needed to manage a Diva before his profile would complete. He thought that I was a person in this era with the most potential so…”


Xia Ling carried the tea over and smiled at Li Lei. “He hopes that I can become a Diva. You know this is my main career goal.”


Initially, the purpose of this lie was not to deal with Li Lei.


Rather, the recent news about Lin Yunan’s comeback because of her was surging, and the public was speculating about what her charm was and if she had the ability to help this top manager make a comeback in the entertainment scene.


Lin Yunan felt that no one should know that she was the one who approached him because it would affect her reputation.


It was necessary to maintain the story that it was him who approached her first.


That way, it would increase her status.


Xia Ling suddenly had a good idea and felt that she could use the same rhetoric to deal with the doubts of Li Lei and other people.


Li Lei smiled, took the tea from her, and did not continue probing her. When the tea touched his lips, its slightly hot temperature made his heart palpitate. She was the one who looked for Lin Yunan first but lied to him. Tan Ying’s investigation showed that she had met with Feng Kun privately before looking for Lin Yunan. It was very likely that the person who recommended him to her was Feng Kun.


She really trusted Feng Kun.


Why?
