Chapter 127 Brave Kitten

Jiang Luo's phone call with Lin Heng ended unhappily.

When Jiang Luo woke up from her nap, news of her contract termination with Lin Heng was already everywhere.

[Crossing the river and burning the bridge! A certain actress surnamed Jiang abandoned her manager, who had shared joys and sorrows, immediately after hooking up with a sugar daddy. This is despicable!]

Similar titles, similar text, similar images.

Mass-produced gossip makes its origin easily identifiable.

The curtains kept the morning light out of the room, and only a faint light shone from the headboard in the darkness.

On the screen, one Weibo post after another scrolled by, each lasting no more than a second.

Shi Yan was still asleep; her steady breathing could be heard from behind her.

Perhaps because of this subtle movement, Jiang Luo did not feel lonely and helpless.

She watched those updates with a calm heart.

This was a tactic used to provoke her.

She compromised with Lin Heng, and both parties issued a statement indicating that they were still cooperating. Then, she dropped the bombshell news that she would join Xu Jingyan's company. This was the best way to handle things in one go.

But Jiang Luo didn't want to do that.

She will no longer go against her own heart.

Because she can't be their obedient puppet.

A message pops up on the screen.

He Ziyan: [Luo Luo, call me back when you wake up.]

Upon opening the message, Jiang Luo replied: "I'm awake, but Shi Yan isn't. I'll just send a message; I'm too lazy to get up."

Send it over.

The top horizontal bar displays "[The other party is typing...]"

Jiang Luo roughly guessed what he was going to say, and then typed: "I'm fine, I'm doing well. This is just growing pains. I didn't expect that at my age, I could still grow. It's a good thing."

There was a moment of silence on the other end.

Thirty seconds later, He Ziyan's message came through: [Luo Luo, firstly, you are still very young; secondly, your courage has impressed me.]

With a smile, Jiang Luo said, "You deserve some credit for this. When I saw you confronting the reporters at the press conference, I thought, 'You're so brave! When will I be able to be as brave as you?' Heaven must have heard my thoughts, so it specially arranged this opportunity for me."

He Ziyan; [Brave Kitten.]

Jiang Luo: [Hmph, I'm not a kitten.]

He Ziyan sent a kitten greeting emoji.

He Ziyan: [You are.]

Jiang Luo chuckled softly.

He Ziyan: [This matter is a bit tricky. It's difficult for you to mitigate the impact on your own. How about hiring me as your temporary assistant?]

assistant?

Jiang Luo pouted; "President He, you're so expensive, I can't afford to hire you."

He Ziyan: [President Luo Luo, the trial period is free.]

Probation period.

Jiang Luo lowered her eyes. [Oh.]

He Ziyan: [President Luo, our public relations department is handling this matter and has found a few agents for you. Would you like to come for an interview?]

So fast?

Wow, that's incredibly fast!

wrong.

Jiang Luo then realized that He Ziyan was trying to trick her.

She said she didn't want him to interfere too much in her work, so he needed a legitimate identity to help her with her affairs.

So... he was trying to get her consent.

Jiang Luo: [Have you arranged everything?]

There was another thirty seconds of silence on the other end.

He Ziyan: [Sister, what are you talking about? I don't understand.]

Jiang Luo: ...

The image of that innocent and pure face flashed before her eyes, and Jiang Luo chuckled.

Some people tried to get away with being "cute".

Jiang Luo: [I'm getting up right away; I have an interview. I need a new agent and a lawyer to help me draft a termination agreement.]

He Ziyan: [Received, Ms. Luoluo.]

Immediately following, a cat standing at attention and saluting emoji was sent.

Jiang Luo sniffed, her smile widening even further.

She said she was going to get up, but she held onto her phone and stayed lying down for a while longer.

I repeatedly reviewed their conversations, drawing warmth from them time and again.

With He Ziyan around, it seems there are no unsolvable problems in this world.

It's so good to have He Ziyan around.
