That’s good…
He wanted everyone to see who was the star of the night!
Jiang Yining hugged his arm and said, “It’s good to have a husband. You’re so thoughtful of me. 1 don’t have to worry about it. 1 really want to stop working hard in the future and rely on you to support me.”
“No problem, you can have an early retirement.”
Lu Zhi continued.
Jiang Yining snorted. “Forget it. I’m a workaholic. I can’t stop.”
A day without something to do makes her uncomfortable all over.
She was destined not to be a full-time housewife.
Lu Zhi lightly tapped her nose and said, “Then you can stop anytime you want to rest.”
Then, he became her harbor, providing a place for her dock.
Jiang Yining nodded. His eyes squinting with happiness, and he was very happy.
At night, Yan Ruo’s celebration banquet was held as scheduled.
For the sake of Yuan Luochen, many people attended, most of whom were prominent figures in A-City.
As the guests arrived at the hotel, they expressed their congratulations to Yan Ruo.
Yan Ruo wore a dress worth millions. She looked exquisite and elegant. Under her elegant and polite demeanor, she couldn’t hide her pride. “Thank you for taking the time to come. This cooperation is mainly due to the appreciation of Second Young Master Yuan. Without him, 1 wouldn’t have the glory I have today.”
When the others heard this, they happily flattered her. “Miss Yan, you’re too modest. You have the talent. Second Young Master Yuan has the discerning eye to find such a treasure. Both of you are impressive!”
Yan Ruo immediately blossomed with a radiant smile.
When Bo Qin and Fu Yiren got out of the car, they saw Yan Ruo surrounded by a large crowd.
The scene of stars surrounding the moon was very lively.
The two of them walked forward. They had planned to wait for all the guests to enter before going forward to talk to Yan Ruo.
However, Yan Ruo saw them at a glance.
“Mr. Bo, Miss Fu, you’re finally here. I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.” Yan Ruo walked through the crowd and stood in front of the two of them. She said in a sarcastic tone, “It’s all thanks to ATr. Bo terminating my contract that I was able to meet Second Young Master Yuan. Today, I must toast to both of you.”
Her words implied that Bo Qin was blind.
Bo Qin said calmly, “We are just a small temple and cannot afford such a big shot like you. Now that you’ve terminated the contract and found a better opportunity, I’m happy for you. As for us, we can only sign with a manga artist who matches our identity, so you don’t have to worry about us.”
“Did you sign a contract with Jiang Yining?”
Jealousy and hatred flashed across Yan Ruo’s eyes.
“We haven’t gone through the signing process yet. We’ve only discussed the terms. At present, Miss Jiang is not very satisfied and is still negotiating,” Bo Qin said.
Yan Ruo opened her mouth to inquire about the conditions they offered to Jiang Yining.
But before he could say anything.
A fleet of luxury cars drove over in an orderly manner.
Everyone’s gaze was attracted by such a grand display.
The convoy arrived in front of the hotel.
The door of the leading car opened and Lu Zhi and Jiang Yining got out.
Yan Ruo’s mouth twisted in anger.
What did Jiang Yining mean by this? She, as the main character, only arranged for a car to come over.
Yet, she had come with a total of sixty to seventy cars over. Wasn’t this stealing her limelight?
Jiang Yining and Lu Zhi walked up to her and greeted her politely.
“Yan Ruo, congratulations on signing a new company for your manga.”
“Congratulations, Miss Yan.”
Yan Ruo’s face darkened. She suppressed the anger in her heart and said, “I’m very happy that you can come. But why did you drive so many cars here?”
Jiang Yining raised her eyes and gave Lu Zhi a playful look as she said, “Blame him. He said you signed a contract with a new company today, and your father and 1 are old friends. He insisted on having a high-profile celebration for you. I couldn’t even stop him.”
Lu Zhi said indifferently, “It’s just a few dozen cars. I can still afford it.”
Yan Ruo was speechless.
She thought, “Can the two of you be any more shameless?”
If she really wanted to give her a grand scene, why wasn’t the convoy following her, but Jiang Yining?
Besides, her father had a grudge against Jiang Yining!
Where did this old friend come from?
It was just shameless nonsense!
Yan Ruo was so angry that she almost bit through her teeth. She forced a smile on her face and said, “Please come in.”
“Alright.”
Jiang Yining held onto Lu Zhi’s arm and walked into the banquet hall confidently.
Yan Ruo looked at their backs and secretly clenched her fists.
Jiang Yining and Lu Zhi found Bo Qin and the others and sat down at the same table.
Some people recognized Lu Zhi and surrounded him, praising Jiang Yining’s drawing skills. Their children and wives all had her comic books.
Jiang Yining knew that they were hypocritically flattering and trying to impress Lu Zhi.
She didn’t take it to heart.
Meanwhile, Yan Ruo accompanied Yuan Luochen to welcome all the guests.
They walked up to Jiang Yining and boasted, “Previously, Yonghui Film and Television Company only offered me loo million. Now, Second Young Master Yuan raised it to 150 million. When the TV series is filmed, 1 can also get a share of the profits… Tsk tsk, Miss Jiang, why don’t you sign with Longmen Film and Television Company?”
She said these words without caring about Bo Qin’s dignity.
Bo Qin and Fu Yiren remained expressionless.
Jiang Yining and Lu Zhi looked at each other and smiled as she said, “I’d be willing to sign with Longmen Film and Television Company. They might not be interested in me, after all, my fame is far less than yours.”
Yan Ruo snorted in her heart, “At least you know your place.”
Unexpectedly, Jiang Yining continued to speak slowly, “Besides, Yonghui Film and Television Company has treated me well. The price they offered me is also quite good. I don’t want to sign with another company.”
Yan Ruo’s mouth twitched. She looked at Bo Qin and said with disdain, “What good price can he offer you?”
“Boss Bo, can I disclose the price publicly?” Jiang Yining pretended to ask casually, “After all, we signed a confidentiality contract. We can’t just reveal the price.”
“Go ahead. It will be announced sooner or later anyway.”
Bo Qin nodded.
Jiang Yining looked up at Yan Ruo and said in a clear voice, “Boss Bo only offered me 400 million yuan. After the TV series is completed, I’ll get one-third of the profits. I’m really sorry, but it can’t compare to the price Longmen Film and Television Company offered you..”
