"You're quite bold, daring to stay behind alone." Ran Jie was still annoyed when he saw Jian Ruoxi again.
Before Ran Jie could speak, Jian Ruoxi unceremoniously pulled up a stool and sat directly opposite him. "Whether I'm bold or not, you've already seen it all, so I don't need to pretend."
Upon hearing Jian Ruoxi's words, Ran Jie immediately recalled the scene of her arguing with him yesterday, and his expression became somewhat unnatural.
Looking at all the celebrities in the entertainment industry, no one dares to talk to him like that.
"But there's one thing I'm really curious about," Jian Ruoxi said, looking into Ran Jie's eyes, "Why did you agree to let me join Huarui again?"
Ever since she learned that she had made it onto the signing list, Jian Ruoxi had been thinking about this issue, but she couldn't figure it out no matter what she did.
Regardless of Huarui's eligibility to sign with them, or the feud between him and Chen Jin, there is absolutely no way he could get into Huarui.
But Ran Jie ended up agreeing.
"It's very simple, I think you resemble someone."
Jian Ruoxi was taken aback. "Who does he look like?"
A look of nostalgia appeared on Ran Jie's face. "You look a lot like Tian Lei."
Ran Jie and Jian Ruoxi were talking in the reception room, while Chen Jin paced anxiously outside.
"Director Chen, could you please stop moving? You're making me dizzy." He was also worried about what was going on inside.
"I'm just anxious." To be honest, she really couldn't figure out Ran Jie's personality right now.
"Let's wait a little longer. Ran Jie just promised that nothing will happen."
Meanwhile, Li Anran was staying in the house arranged by Lu Shen when she received a message on her phone from Lu Jianming, asking her to come out and meet him that afternoon.
The message was followed by a threatening statement: "If you don't come in time, you'll face the consequences."
Li Anran angrily threw her phone onto the bed. "They always boss me around. Sooner or later, I'll deal with them all."
But she doesn't have the power to eliminate them yet, and she even needs their help, so she can only endure it.
After getting ready, Li Anran prepared to go out.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw bodyguards standing at the entrance like two guardian deities.
"Miss Li, are you going out? Or to the Lu family's house?" The bodyguards had their signature smiles on their faces.
"I just visited the old lady yesterday, so I won't go today. I'll just wander around the mall and look at some clothes and stuff."
These past few days, whenever she went to the Lu family, these two bodyguards accompanied her and even acted as her driver, giving her a taste of the benefits of being a young mistress.
Thinking that even Jian Ruoxi in the past might not have received such treatment, she felt even more proud.
“Let’s go to the mall.” The two bodyguards exchanged a glance, then continued, “Why don’t we go with Miss Li?”
"Ah? This might be a bit inconvenient." A look of hesitation appeared on Li Anran's face.
Seeing this, the two bodyguards became even more determined to follow Li Anran, and even brought up Lu Shen.
"Our young master said that we must stay with Miss Li at all times. If anything happens to you, we will be punished."
"Yes, we wouldn't dare let Miss Li go out alone."
In the end, Li Anran couldn't persuade the two bodyguards otherwise and had to agree to let them come along.
On the way there, her expression remained unnatural.
With these two bodyguards with her, how could she possibly meet with those people?
Inside the signing room, Jian Ruoxi was somewhat puzzled by Ran Jie's answer, "Like Li Tianlei? What do you mean?"
"It's easy to see that you all love acting and pursue it as a lifelong career."
After returning home last night, he finally took a good look at Jian Ruoxi's profile and discovered that she was indeed a rare and talented actress.
Many of the roles she has portrayed have been very successful, and her acting skills have continued to improve. Even after a three-year hiatus, her acting skills did not decline upon her return.
Of course, what touched him the most was the scene of Jian Ruoxi scolding him yesterday.
“If Tian Lei were still alive, he would probably join you in criticizing me.”
Tian Lei is upright and deeply in love with Lu Jin, so naturally he wouldn't stand by and watch his woman suffer.
“That’s possible.” From Lu Jin’s words, Jian Ruoxi also learned a lot about Li Tianlei’s past.
Although this person may seem honest and easy to bully, if anyone around him is harmed, he will definitely be the first to stand up for them.
After Ran Jie finished speaking, he took out the contract he had prepared in advance from his briefcase and handed it to Jian Ruoxi.
"This is the contract I've drafted. It's for a three-year term. If you have no questions, please sign it."
The contract contained many terms. After Jian Ruoxi signed a contract with a film and television company, the terms proposed by Hua Rui were fairer than those of the company she had previously signed with.
Seeing Jian Ruoxi's actions, Ran Jie smiled and said, "You're quite cautious. Would a big company like Huarui really cheat a small-time artist like you?"
After confirming that all the terms were correct, Jian Ruoxi signed her name in the last column.
"You naturally need to be careful in the entertainment industry. You should know this better than I do if you hire an agent."
Ran Jie nodded in satisfaction. "Not bad, it seems I didn't sign the wrong person."
It seems that finding Jian Ruoxi was quite clever and resourceful. Right now, the only person he can really use is Su Ziyu. If he trains Jian Ruoxi well, she might be able to reach Su Ziyu's level soon.
Although he oversees all the artists, very few of them actually receive regular guidance from him.
Su Ziyu is talented and works very hard, which is why he was willing to mentor him.
He'll probably have to personally mentor one more person in the future.
"Alright." After signing the document, Jian Ruoxi handed one copy to Ran Jie in front of her and kept the other copy for herself.
Then he extended his hand to Ran Jie, saying, "I hope you will give me a lot of guidance from now on, my manager."
Ran Jie shook hands with her generously, saying, "Of course, I hope we can cooperate happily in the future."
Before leaving, Jian Ruoxi turned to Ran Jie and asked, "You shouldn't hurt Xiao Jin anymore, right?"
"This doesn't seem like something an artist should be concerned with." Although Ran Jie had figured it out, he didn't want to admit it.
Because it looked like he had lost out to Jian Ruoxi.
As an agent, he needs authority to manage artists. Without authority, how can he get Jian Ruoxi to obey him in the future?
Jian Ruoxi didn't listen to him at all. "Fine, whatever you think, as long as I'm here, you can forget about bullying my Xiao Jin again."
"We'll be working at the same company from now on, so I'll keep a close eye on you."
After Jian Ruoxi left, Ran Jie shook his head helplessly.
"I already agreed to let her join the company, why didn't she even say thank you?"
"She's threatening me, her manager? She's really not afraid at all."
