Chen Yinuo was secretly worried too. He was concerned that if they used Jiang Ling’er as the spokesperson, it might damage Chen Group’s reputation. However, in this case, it was Chen Group’s CEO, Chen Yinuo’s brother, who showed interest in Jiang Ling’er. So, even if Jiang Ling’er wasn’t the best option, she still had a much better chance compared to other people.
Thinking about all this, Chen Yinuo nodded and said, “Of course, now we’re just waiting for Jiang Ling’er’s response. Do you believe it or not?”
Bai Xue glanced at Jiang Ling’er, her eyes filled with disdain.
She replied, “Jiang Ling’er is indeed remarkable, but Little Six, you don’t have to praise her too much. You wouldn’t want to be proven wrong in the end.”
After a brief pause, Bai Xue continued, “If Chen Group openly looks for a spokesperson, 1 believe many A-list celebrities would give it a try. At that time, whether Ling’er is suitable or not won’t be decided by you, Little Six.”
Hearing this, Wen Nuan immediately spoke up, “Bai Xue, it seems like you’re implying that Ling’er is not as famous as you. What’s the point? Even if you’re more famous, Little Six didn’t choose you either.”
Bai Xue said, “Miss Wen, you have a significant reputation as well. But, the fact remains that Little Six didn’t choose you either, so why mock me?”
While speaking, Bai Xue portrayed herself as somewhat aggrieved, but her words were full of sarcasm.
Wen Nuan knew exactly what Bai Xue was trying to convey, but she didn’t care and replied, “Indeed, he didn’t choose me, but I don’t feel jealous. Unlike you, who seems to be envious of everything Ling’er has that’s better than you.”
Bai Xue said, “Miss Wen, it appears that you’ve misunderstood me once again. I’m genuinely pleased to see Ling’er’s progress.”
Bai Xue feigned an air of tranquility, making it difficult for ordinary people to detect her malicious intentions.
Wen Nuan provocatively remarked, “It’s not really important. What’s important is that you’re jealous of Ling’er, who excels in everything compared to you. Before, all you had was the favor of Li Yan, but looking at you two during the birthday banquet, it seemed that things weren’t as great as they used to be.”
Jiang Ling’er smiled. It appeared that the bond between Bai Xue and Li Yan might not be as strong as before.
Bai Xue’s face darkened, and she retorted sarcastically, “Miss Wen, you have time to mock others, why don’t you focus on improving yourself instead? This way, you won’t be left behind by Ling’er.”
Wen Nuan couldn’t be easily provoked by Bai Xue. She replied, “You don’t need to stir up trouble here. The matters between Ling’er and me are none of your concern. Instead of worrying about whether 1 can keep up, you should think about who will replace you in the future.”
With a scowl, Bai Xue said, “I won’t argue with you here. I’m just advising Ling’er not to embarrass herself. I’ve heard from Li Yan that Chen Group’s CEO has high expectations for the artists they endorse.”
Jiang Ling’er smiled and said, “Whether it’s high or not, I don’t know. What I do know is that Little Six invited me for an audition. Were you invited as well?”
Bai Xue squeezed out a smile.
Jiang Ling’er continued with a smile, “Seeing your reaction, it’s highly likely that you weren’t. You must be feeling jealous, right?”
Bai Xue composed herself and said, “Ling’er, you don’t really have anything to make me jealous because, in all these years, I’ve never lost to you, right?”
Jiang Ling’er remained nonchalant and said, “Rest assured, I’ll make sure you end up with nothing at all.”
Bai Xue let out a cold laugh and added, “To be honest, there are many things 1 don’t care about. I only need Li Yan’s love.”
She looked smug as she spoke.
Wen Nuan suddenly remarked, “Is that so? Then, at your birthday banquet, in front of everyone, Li Yan gave the first piece of cake to Ling’er. Doesn’t that feel like a slap in the face?”
Bai Xue instantly felt a surge of anger but forced herself to smile, saying, “A slap in the face? Li Yan knew 1 don’t like sweets, so giving it to Ling’er was just a matter of courtesy.”
Wen Nuan smiled and retorted, “That’s right, very courteous, because he knows Ling’er likes sweets. With so many people there, he insisted on giving it to Ling’er. What do you think that means?”
Bai Xue said, “You don’t need to sow discord. I know Li Yan loves only me. Even if he has a good impression of Ling’er, he would never break off our engagement. He chose to be with me, right?”
Bai Xue maintained a smiling facade as she spoke, but she was seething with anger inside. She couldn’t deny that Li Yan’s actions at the birthday banquet had been a slap in the face.
Wen Nuan smiled and said, “That’s right, he loves only you, but it doesn’t change the fact that he knew Ling’er’s lucky color is blue, and her favorite color is also blue.”
Jiang Ling’er smiled at the comment. Both her and her original self loved the color blue. However, Li Yan using blue had nothing to do with her or her original self.
Bai Xue clenched her teeth in frustration.
Her face turned menacing. Wen Nuan was a venomous woman with a wicked tongue.
Wen Nuan, still not satisfied with the reaction, continued, “You say Li Yan knew you don’t like sweets, yet he went out of his way to bake a blue-themed cake himself, cut the first slice, and gave it to Ling’er..”
