Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
As soon as Su Shengjing carried Su Jiu to the office, the little girl sweetly greeted Han Jiani. “Hello, Pretty Auntie!”
Han Jiani smiled at her. Her attitude was no longer as cold and distant as before. “Sit down.”
Su Shengjing sat down with the little girl in his arms. Han Jiani instantly handed him a document with his recent work arrangements.
“Su Shengjing, you’re quite popular now. The company plans to use this opportunity to help you take on more jobs and stabilize your popularity.
“So, you might have to work a little harder during this time.”
Su Shengjing took the document and nodded. “I understand. It’s not hard.”
Even if that was hard work, it was worth putting effort into. He had promised to work hard to earn money to support his daughter.
Su Jiu leaned over and looked at the document with him.
The document contained invitations for several variety programs, advertisements, and television dramas. All the invitations were from very famous programs and brands. Two television dramas had even invited him to play the male lead.
Wait, male lead?
From the looks of it, Daddy is going to take off!
Su Jiu felt elated and almost shed tears of gratitude.
Han Jiani continued, “I’ve filtered these out for you. Take a look and see which one you want to accept. I’ll respect your opinion.”
Su Jiu looked at Han Jiani. As expected of a top manager, she is really different!
Some managers treated the celebrities in their hands as only tools to earn money and wouldn’t care about their wishes. For example, if the celebrities were asked to take on lousy films, even if they didn’t like it, they still had to listen to their managers.
Hence, Su Jiu was grateful that Han Jiani respected her father’s opinion.
After all, although her father was very popular now, he was still a small celebrity and not an A-list big shot. If he were under another company, he might not even have the right to disagree.
Su Jiu sweetly spoke, “Pretty Auntie, why are you so nice? Little Jiu likes you more and more. Auntie is a beautiful and kind fairy!”
Han Jiani didn’t expect that the little girl would praise her. Moreover, her words sounded very pleasing to the ear. She subconsciously wanted to laugh, but she held it back and maintained a cold expression. “Is that so? I’m not a fairy. Little girl, you’re a bootlicker.”
The little girl instantly became indignant. She puffed up her cheeks and retorted, “I’m not trying to suck up to you. I’m telling the truth. Pretty Auntie, you have to believe me! I don’t compliment ordinary people!”
She spoke solemnly, but also seemed a little anxious as if she really wanted Han Jiani to believe her.
Han Jiani could no longer maintain the cold expression on her face. She involuntarily curled up the corners of her lips. “Really? Then tell me: who have you praised before?”
The little girl thought about it and said seriously, “I only praise the people I like! I don’t even look at people I don’t like, much less praise them!”
Su Jiu felt that she was really a clever child. She had cleverly answered this question and even expressed another meaning: You are a person I like.
Su Jiu indeed really liked Han Jiani. Not only was Han Jiani beautiful and valiant, but she was also very capable in her work. Most importantly, she was a good person. She wasn’t like many people the little girl had met before, who looked down on her father and made him sound so terrible…
It was a blessing to meet such a person.
She is Daddy’s benefactor!
Her father was not good with words and didn’t know how to negotiate. As a daughter who wanted her father to fly, Su Jiu felt that she had to help him.
If he could not speak, she would speak for him!
Han Jiani liked what Su Jiu said.
Although she felt that this little girl was indeed a little bootlicker, the way she ingratiated herself was not repulsive. On the contrary, Han Jiani quite liked it. In short, she felt very satisfied after hearing her words.
Han Jiani looked at her and then at Su Shengjing. If it weren’t for the fact that they looked alike, she would never have suspected that the little girl was Su Shengjing’s biological daughter.
Their personalities were completely different.
After reading the document, Su Shengjing raised his head and said to Han Jiani, “I’ve finished reading through all these. If my schedule is suitable, please accept all of them for me. I will follow the company’s arrangements.”
All of them?
Han Jiani was a little surprised. “All the jobs I’ve selected can be arranged for you. There will be no scheduling conflict. But, are you sure you want to take all of them? You might have a hard time.”
Su Shengjing lowered his eyes and looked at the little girl in his arms. A trace of gentleness and indulgence appeared in his eyes.
He patted his daughter’s head and smiled. “Working hard isn’t a problem, as long as it’s profitable.”
The way he looked at the little girl moved Han Jiani.
It was not easy for a father to do this for his daughter. Su Shengjing was very unlike those irresponsible parents.
In a family, most of the time, mothers were responsible for raising their children. Many fathers did not care about their children and only played with them when it was convenient.
Han Jiani had rarely seen a father like Su Shengjing who took care of his child so wholeheartedly. It was admirable.
This was exactly what made Su Shengjing so attractive. Didn’t the audience become his fans because they saw his fatherly love for his daughter on ‘Daddy, Let’s Go’?
Han Jiani nodded. “Okay, if that’s your decision, I’ll arrange it for you.”
Su Shengjing politely nodded. “Thank you.”
“You’re welcome,” Han Jiani said, her expression suddenly becoming a little serious. “Oh right, there’s something else I want to ask you. Do you still remember the scandals about you that were exposed a few years ago?”
Huh?
Su Jiu was stunned.
Her instincts told her that Han Jiani wouldn’t ask this for no reason. Was there something fishy?
In fact, she had always suspected that someone had been manipulating things behind the scenes. She had suspected Qin Feng before, but there was no concrete evidence. Moreover, the incident had happened a few years ago, and the details were very difficult to trace back.
Now that Han Jiani had mentioned it, Su Jiu pricked up her ears and listened carefully.
Su Shengjing didn’t know why Han Jiani suddenly asked this question, so he answered truthfully, “I only have a rough idea. I haven’t thought about this for many years.”
Han Jiani frowned. “It seems like you were really young and ignorant back then. You didn’t even care about such an important thing? Did you ever think of investigating it? How are you going to survive in the entertainment industry like this? You’ll be destroyed in minutes.”
Su Shengjing pursed his thin lips and fell into deep thought.
It wasn’t that he hadn’t wanted to find out, but those scandals had kept popping up one after another, making it impossible for him to defend himself. The public opinion on the Internet was still one-sided, and everyone had been attacking him. They had even gone to the official Weibo of his sponsor and protested, demanding the sponsors to terminate their partnership with him.
Unable to take on the pressure, the sponsors had terminated their contracts with Su Shengjing one after another. He had then paid tens of millions of dollars for the breach of contract. How could he spare money to investigate?
After that, Sheng Tianci had indeed hired someone to investigate. However, there were so many accounts and netizens who had spread the rumors that it seemed like the news of the scandals had spread throughout the whole internet overnight. It was really difficult to find out who the source was..
