Jona looked dejected. "That's it, it's probably hopeless. Luckily, I had an offer for a variety show before, which I didn't turn down. I'm going to sign the contract with them in a bit."
The two walked out talking, with Xiaoyuan following behind. Just as they stepped out of the elevator, Qiao Na's phone rang. "Hello? Who is this?"
"Manager Qiao, I'm Director Qu's assistant. Your artist just passed the audition. Please come over and sign the contract."
Jona's voice trembled with surprise, "Okay, okay, I'm coming! I'm right there!"
After hanging up the phone, Qiao Na excitedly touched her soft, delicate face: "You really made me proud! You landed the role in Director Qu's drama, a role that so many people were competing for. Come on, let's go sign the contract!"
Qiao Na was genuinely happy; being able to get into Director Qu's film meant that Li Ruan's acting skills had improved.
There were many comments online saying that Li Ruan's acting was bad, so maybe this drama can help her regain some of her reputation.
Xiao Yuan excitedly chimed in, "Sister Ruan, you did so well, why didn't you say so earlier? You almost got packaged up by Sister Na and stuffed into a variety show."
This is Director Qu's production, forty episodes long. Even if Sister Li appears less often, her salary won't be less. Oh dear, her own artist is doing so well; she's truly happy as the assistant.
Half an hour later, the contract was signed. Li Ruan had at least been a minor celebrity, and Director Qu was very optimistic about her during today's audition. Although she was only a minor fifth female lead, she still received a salary of 1.5 million yuan.
1.5 million sounds like a lot, but most people might not earn that much in their entire lives.
After deducting company profits and taxes, the amount that Li Ruan actually receives is at most around 400,000.
Li Ruan wasn't greedy. At least she had some income. If half of her fee was paid upfront, she would still receive 200,000.
As they exited the Qihua Building, Qiao Na waved her hand and said, "Come on, I'll take you to eat something good."
Then, Li Ruan and Xiao Yuan were dragged by the eldest sister to a seafood hot pot restaurant that cost 98 yuan per person.
"Eat whatever you want, it's on me! Let's celebrate Xiao Ruan finally getting into a decent film crew."
Xiao Yuan covered her face and dragged the generous agent Qiao into a small private room. Seriously, she had been working with Sister Ruan for more than half a year, and this was the first time Sister Na had treated them. She didn't expect her to be so stingy, serving them a buffet for 98 yuan per person.
I should have let her pay!
Li Ruan was quite happy. Back in the cultivation world, she started abstaining from grains as soon as she reached the Foundation Establishment stage. Over the past three hundred years, she had been busy cultivating and hadn't eaten any real food much.
As for the price, since you can eat as much as you want, 98 yuan for an all-you-can-eat buffet is already pretty good.
Li Ruan brought back a plate full of seafood, and thinking of someone, she smiled mischievously. She took a picture with her phone and casually sent it to Assistant He: "No matter how busy you are at work, don't forget to eat lunch!"
Then I found several links online and sent them over: #The Dangers of Irregular Eating Habits#, #What Can Save Your Stomach#, #How to Eat Better for Three Meals a Day#...
At that moment, He Cheng was reporting to Xi Leng when his phone rang several times in a row.
His identity is special, so his phone is never turned off. Those who can contact him are all of high status, but most of the time they call, and they send very few messages.
This naturally caught Xi Leng's attention.
He Cheng gave him an apologetic smile, picked up his phone and glanced at it, then explained in a low voice, "Yes, it's Miss Li."
Xi Leng frowned, stopping the flipping through the documents in his hands. "Is something wrong with her?"
"No, it's just that Miss Li reminded me to eat lunch on time."
Xi Leng's expression immediately turned cold. "You two are very familiar with each other?"
Has it gotten to the point where we can remind He Cheng to eat lunch?
He Cheng's legs went weak with fright. "We're not familiar at all! I guess Miss Li doesn't have your WeChat, so she sent it to me."
Xi Leng's eyes darkened. "She asked you for my contact information?"
"No," He Cheng replied truthfully.
Xi Leng: "Recommend it to her." Although He Cheng could solve any problem for her, it always felt a little strange that her pet canary was sending messages to other men every day.
He Cheng immediately responded with an "Ah."
I reminded you yesterday to leave your phone number, but what did you say? Oh, no need!
Is it really necessary today?
Ha, men are just eels in disguise!
Soon, Li Ruan received someone's QR code. He Cheng also sent Xi Leng's phone number and left a message: "Miss Li, please add the president's WeChat."
Don't send it to me again next time; I can't afford to mess with a man who's jealous.
Li Ruan naturally saw He Chenghui's message. Her lips curled up and her eyes curved into crescent moons, making it clear that she was in a good mood.
Jona reminded her, "Why aren't you replying?"
Li Ruan put her phone aside and said nonchalantly, "No rush. Let's talk about it after we finish eating."
The counterfeiter was blinded by Xi Leng's beauty and family background, and didn't pay attention to the terms of the contract when signing it.
So after she got up in the morning, she carefully read through the contract that was on her bedside table.
The contract had only one central theme: the CEO, Xi, was cold-hearted and ruthless, and he only talked about money with the contractor, not feelings.
If Party B attempts to harass Party A, Party B will be considered to have breached the contract and will be required to pay a large sum of money, and the contract will be terminated immediately.
She wasn't angry at all. Mr. Xi was the heir of the Xi family and the sole successor of the Xi conglomerate. His status and position were undeniable. How could an ordinary person like her possibly covet him?
But she really wanted to see what it would be like if Xi Leng fell in love with her.
After lunch, Qiao Na drove Li Ruan back to the company-assigned apartment. It was a small one-bedroom, one-living room, one-kitchen, and one-bathroom apartment. Xiao Yuan usually helped take care of it, so it was quite clean, but it didn't suit Li Ruan's aesthetic at all.
Li Ruan knew that Sister Na brought her back because she had something to ask her. Before she could speak, she picked up a pen and paper, sat on the sofa and wrote a list. "Xiao Yuan, could you please buy these things for me? Try to buy everything you need. Also, could you buy some snacks for me?"
Xiaoyuan took the list and went out. It wasn't until she got into the elevator that she realized most of the lists were book lists. Wow, has Soft Sister changed her ways and is planning to study hard?
After she left, Jona's expression changed instantly, and she asked solemnly, "Tell me, what's the deal with the sugar daddy?"
Li Ruan sat down next to Qiao Na in a flattering manner, grabbed her arm, and explained while swaying her, "Sister Na, don't be angry. I never intended to hide this from you."
I was so angry with Ji Yunzhang that I impulsively found myself a sugar daddy. Don't worry, I promise it won't affect my work.
Qiao Na glared at Li Ruan with exasperation, "I told you before that Ji Yunzhang has a lot of ulterior motives, and you'd better stay away from him, but you were like a blind man, insisting on getting close to him."
Speaking of this, she always felt that the document she saw when she took over PearSoft was too different from the real PearSoft.
