Chapter 188: Don’t Be Late

Tang Xiaohong felt a twinge of guilt hearing this, but considering the potential losses to the company due to Bai Xue’s laziness if she missed such an opportunity with the Chen Group, it was better to give other talents a chance.
Tang Xiaohong replied, “I haven’t forgotten about you. Be at the Chen Group’s 15th floor in three days, and don’t be late.”
Liu Yanyan excitedly responded, “I’ll remember, thank you, Sister Tang, for this opportunity.”
Liu Yanyan’s enthusiasm made Tang Xiaohong feel accomplished. Unlike Bai Xue, no matter how much she tried to help, Bai Xue showed no gratitude, always behaving as if that was to be expected.
Tang Xiaohong said, “Great, it’s settled. You better prepare well. If you get this endorsement, you’re going to rise to stardom.”
Liu Yanyan assured, “I will, Sister Tang, rest assured. I’ll prepare diligently.”
After the call ended, Tang Xiaohong sighed. With Bai Xue’s work attitude, it was about time the company directed its resources toward other artists.
Jiang Ling’er was surprised when Chen Yinuo suddenly came to look for her. When she heard Chen Yinuo reveal his identity and purpose, she was even more shocked.
Everyone knew that the endorsers for Chen Group had always been A-list celebrities and big stars. Now, they were asking Jiang Ling’er to come for an audition? It wasn’t April Fools’ Day, was it?
The look of astonishment on Jiang Ling’er’s face was not surprising to Chen Yinuo. After all, Chen Group had never chosen an unknown artist for their endorsements.
As Jiang Ling’er continued to gaze at him in disbelief, Chen Yiluo began to feel somewhat uncomfortable.
Chen Yiluo said, “Um, do you have any interest?”
“Little Six, do you think I can do it?” Jiang Ling’er asked with a smile.
Chen Yiluo smiled back and said, “It’s not what 1 think; it’s what you think.”
Jiang Ling’er was different when she spoke and when she didn’t. She seemed like two entirely different people. When she spoke, she was lively and mischievous, and when she didn’t, she appeared mysterious and inscrutable.
Jiang Ling’er said seriously, “For this matter, I need to go back and discuss it with my family.”
Wen Nuan, on the other hand, became anxious when she heard this. She said, “What’s there to discuss? Just say yes.”
Why deliberate on such a great opportunity? Why delay?
Jiang Ling’er said with a touch of exasperation, “Wen Nuan, endorsing for Chen Group isn’t as simple as striking a few poses.”
Wen Nuan passionately argued, “Precisely because it’s a collaboration with Chen Group, we have to act quickly. By considering this for so long, you’re wasting time. What if someone else grabs the opportunity?”
Jiang Ling’er waved her hand and turned to Chen Yinuo, saying, “Little Six, I still believe I need to go back and discuss it with my family. If it’s possible, I’ll give you an answer tomorrow. But, if you insist on needing an answer today, then I’ll have to take a pass.”
Chen Yiluo felt relieved. This didn’t amount to a refusal, and he had completed half of his mission.
He said, “No rush, as long as you’re willing to give it a try.”
Wen Nuan was very puzzled. After all the recent happenings, she knew Jiang Ling’er’s grandfather would certainly not object. So why did Jiang Ling’er feel the need to discuss this with him? She wasn’t someone without her own opinions.
It was unclear when Bai Xue arrived, but she questioned, “Is this a scam?”
She found it hard to believe that Chen Group, such a prestigious company, would suddenly approach Jiang Ling’er, someone with a dark past and no real talent, to be their spokesperson.
In other words, if Chen Group needed a spokesperson, how could Li Yan’s company not be aware of it? And how could they not let her try out such an opportunity?
Chen Yinuo furrowed his brow and replied mockingly, “A scam? Why don’t you say that I, the young master of the Chen family, am also a fake?”
Bai Xue couldn’t help but smile. She hadn’t expected the person who made her feel disgusted when she was with Old Wang to be the young master of the Chen family.
Bai Xue said, “Little Six, I don’t doubt your identity. I mean, if Chen Group needed a spokesperson, how could our company not be aware of it?”
Chen Yinuo replied mockingly, “Hah… Your company is definitely aware, and they’ve known for a while. But you may not know this because, in your company, there are many artists better than you. If you wanted to represent Chen Group, the CEO of your company probably thinks you’re not worthy. That’s why they didn’t tell you.”
Bai Xue fell silent.
Her face turned extremely unpleasant. With Li Yan abroad, her company should be managed by Wang Wei. If Wang Wei knew about this and hadn’t informed her, when Li Yan returned, Bai Xue would have to demand an explanation.
Chen Yinuo noticed Bai Xue’s displeased expression.
Chen Yinuo continued to mock, saying, “If you can’t accept it, just swallow your pride. Believe me, you don’t need to doubt my words.”
Bai Xue couldn’t help but feel irritated, but she knew she couldn’t show it at this moment.
She replied with a hint of distress, “1 know you’ve always had an issue with me, which even led to a disagreement between you and Old Wang. I’m really sorry for that. But I think, when it comes to selecting a spokesperson for Chen Group, it’s probably not something you can decide.”
Chen Yinuo nodded and said, “You’re right, but with my recommendation, the chances of being hired are higher than for others.”
A look of disdain flashed in Bai Xue’s eyes as she said, “Chen Group has always used A-list celebrities as their spokespersons.. Are you sure your recommendation will be enough?”
