Chapter Seventeen



Li Yuxiang felt uneasy. Jiang Yixing's performance had a unique flavor. Although some details were too stiff, the overall performance was still a vibrant one.

Li Yuxiang turned her gaze to He Mang and found that He Mang was not paying attention to Jiang Yixing's performance either, which immediately made her feel a little relieved.

He Mang was writing and drawing on paper when Jiang Yixing's performance suddenly sparked a lot of inspiration in him.

With her somewhat absurd past experiences, coupled with Jiang Yixing's seemingly rebirth, the woman before me is noble and elegant, beautiful and moving, a blend of which brings forth a constant stream of whimsical ideas.

Jiang Yixing's performance had ended, and the four of them applauded in unison.

After Jiang Yixing and Li Yuxiang left, the group looked at each other, perplexed.

"So...who should we choose?"

One of the representatives from Fobana stroked his chin and pondered for a moment, "Li Yuxiang, I suppose. Her acting skills are good, and the quality of her fans is more reliable than Jiang Yixing's."

The other person, however, favored Jiang Yixing, stating succinctly, "So beautiful!"

The remaining person was torn. He secretly wanted to choose Jiang Yixing, but reason told him that Li Yuxiang was more stable, both in terms of acting skills and fan purchasing power.

But just these past two days, Jiang Yixing's popularity has surged. A helpful image is a very positive publicity direction for both the individual and the brand; in the past few days, Jiang Yixing's name has been mentioned far more often than Li Yuxiang's.

Whether this is just a flash in the pan or the beginning of a new wave of popularity is anyone's guess. Are brands really betting everything on her?

Just as he was struggling with this, He Mang slapped the table, "Jiang Yixing."

"She best fits the overall image and temperament, and she's been very popular recently."

"But...she's a complete newcomer, isn't she?"

"Isn't the whole point of finding new people? If you're going to do it, do it properly."

After much discussion, the group finally decided to choose Jiang Yixing.

The other interviewees who came later were far less outstanding than Li Yuxiang and Jiang Yixing, and were quickly eliminated as well.

After a whole morning of interviews, He Mang stretched her stiff body, took out her phone, and called Zhang Chang.

"Thank you for your recommendation," He Mang said with a slight smile. "The spokesperson has been chosen."

"The person you recommended is very good."

Zhang Chang was genuinely happy for him. "That's great! You've been looking for a spokesperson for a long time. The brand must have been waiting for you for a while now."

"Yes, this was decided after a long discussion with them."

"Of course, it's not a small matter after all."

Zhang Chang then turned his accusation against He Mang, "See? I told you I had good taste, didn't I? You even questioned whether I had an improper relationship with her."

"Hey! You can't just say things like that. I didn't question that. I just thought you two were related."

"Now let's see, did I cause you any trouble?"

"Of course, thank you so much. I'll treat you to dinner next time; you can choose whatever you like."

"Hahaha, okay, then I'll be waiting for you."

Zhang Meng and Li Shuang were waiting in the hall when Zhang Meng saw Jiang Yixing coming out from afar and immediately went to greet him.

Zhang Meng handed him a glass of water. "Are you tired?"

Jiang Yixing shook his head.

Li Shuang walked up to Li Yuxiang and asked, "How is it?"

Li Yuxiang glanced at Jiang Yixing and nodded slightly.

A slight smile appeared on Li Shuang's lips. "Zhang Meng, one star? We'll be leaving now?"

"Okay, Sister Shuang, take care." Zhang Meng smiled and waved to the two of them.

Li Shuang led Li Yuxiang out of the hall. Both of them had rosy complexions and seemed to be in good spirits, which made the other people who had not yet participated in the interview feel a little flustered.

Jiang Yixing left with Zhang Meng. Once outside the hall, Zhang Meng quietly inquired about Jiang Yixing's condition.

Jiang Yixing felt that his chances were roughly equal to Li Yuxiang's, but he didn't know how the others were performing.

So, to be honest, I was rather conservative.

Zhang Meng sighed, "Well, it's definitely going to be difficult for you and Li Yuxiang together, after all, she's not a newcomer."

She encouraged herself, saying, "It's okay, it's only my first audition. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future."

Jiang Yixing raised an eyebrow. Although she felt she had performed reasonably well, Zhang Meng was right. After all, one of the interviewers was her ex-boyfriend, so her chances were probably slim.

The two found a restaurant nearby, and Zhang Meng opened the menu, saying, "I'll order."

Having been tired all morning, Jiang Yixing ate his lunch with a clear conscience, finishing all the meat on his plate.

When Zhang Meng came to his senses, he saw that Jiang Yixing's plate was completely empty.

"Have you finished eating?"

"Um."

Jiang Yixing was elegantly wiping her mouth with a napkin when she nodded.

Zhang Meng gave a mysterious smile. "Do you even know you're an actor?"

“…I know.” Jiang Yixing shrank his neck.

"Could you please control your diet?" Zhang Meng's glasses inexplicably began to reflect light, revealing a gaze that frightened Jiang Yixing.

"…OK."

“But I’m the type of person who can’t gain weight no matter how much I eat,” Jiang Yixing added, gesturing with his hand.

Zhang Meng forked the vegetable salad on the plate. This was the lunch that was supposed to be for Jiang Yixing, but she took the opportunity to eat her whole pork chop rice when no one was looking!

"Ha, all the celebrities I've met said they were naturally thin before they gained weight."

Jiang Yixing: "..."

Jiang Yixing was speechless. He couldn't very well tell Zhang Meng that he really couldn't gain weight because he was a cultivator!

I could only silently change the subject, "Are you only eating vegetables? Aren't you hungry?"

Zhang Meng smiled silently, and in the end ordered another beef rice.
