Chapter 531: Unfulfilled Death

Initially, she thought that it was already shocking enough that Ji Xiang could design clothes for the production team. In the afternoon, Tian Juan told Jin Ting and Wen Nian that Leo had made an appointment with the two of them to be his models for the next issue of the magazine. Furthermore, they were both shooting in Ji Xiang’s newly designed haute couture gown.

Jin Ting felt that her mother must have eaten something wrong. She had always objected to her entering the entertainment industry. Why would she take the initiative to let her be a model?

In the end, driven by curiosity, she made the call.

Ji Xiang picked up the phone almost instantly and said in a sarcastic tone, “Have you finally remembered your old mother who was worried sick about you?”

“Nonsense! Who’s old? Don’t talk about my young, beautiful, kind, and brave mother like that. When I go out with her, everyone will think that she’s my little sister!” Jin Ting quickly tried to please her.

However, Ji Xiang did not buy it at all. “Hehe, I don’t come back often. Has everyone’s myopia worsened? You’re so ugly. Who can believe that you’re my sister? You don’t look like it at all, okay? You’re more like your father.”

Wen Nian, who was in the lounge, couldn’t help but laugh out loud. This mother and daughter really had the same temper. No wonder Ji Xiang was Shen Jun’s mother’s good friend. Their tempers were really similar.

Hearing someone’s voice beside her, Ji Xiang asked, “Is it Wen Nian? Let me talk to her.”

Jin Ting reluctantly handed the phone to Wen Nian and mouthed, “Annoying.”

However, Wen Nian knew Ji Xiang’s status in the fashion world. Moreover, Ji Xiang had helped her this time, so she naturally had to thank her.

“Hello, I’m Wen Nian. Thank you so much for this…”

Before she could finish thanking her, Ji Xiang quickly interrupted her. “Don’t thank me. I should be the one thanking you.”

Ji Xiang said in a rare serious tone, “I am indebted to you for taking care of Jin Ting. She has been spoiled since she was young and is willful and disobedient. If it weren’t for your help this time, even if she was my daughter, she wouldn’t have been able to escape unscathed. I should be the one thanking you.”

“However, making costumes for the production team and shooting ‘Mei Shang’ is not entirely to thank you. I’ve been creating new gowns with Oriental elements recently. I saw your art test video and was touched, so I took the initiative to volunteer my help.”

“Since the inspiration for the gown came from you and Leo is willing to shoot it, I naturally recommend you to be a model. As for Jin Ting, just treat it as a buy-one-get-one-free gift. She’s the free gift.”

Upon hearing this, Jin Ting’s face turned red! What did she mean by buy one, get one free? She remembered when she was young, she asked Ji Xiang how she came about. Ji Xiang said that it was a gift for paying the phone bill. When she grew up, she realized that she had suffered a huge loss. She had hated Ji Xiang for a few days because of this matter! Now, she was talking about her like this!

Looking at the pouting Jin Ting, Wen Nian reached out and ruffled her hair. Then, she said into the phone, “Jin Ting is my good friend. It’s only right to protect her. She’s quite talented in acting. When filming starts, you can come and take a look. Jin Ting is indeed working hard for her dream!”

Hearing her say this, Ji Xiang’s heart actually warmed, but she still said, “Who wants to see her?” In the end, the two of them chatted for a while before hanging up.

Jin Ting took the phone angrily. “Look at her, Sister Nian. I’m not the free gift. I’ll definitely do the job well!”

“Yes, yes, yes. You’re the best.” Wen Nian smiled and said, “Then let’s pack up. Tomorrow is the opening ceremony. Directors are all particular about feng shui. Go back and have a good rest today. We can’t be late.”

Director Sun was not superstitious, but the opening ceremony was indeed very well-decorated. It was also a traditional ceremony. The camera had to be covered with a red cloth, and a table had to be set up. Then, the opening ceremony started with burning incense, offering fruits, pig heads, and other tributes.

Looking at the pig head in front of her, Jin Ting was still shocked. Although she was a small character, she had to attend the opening ceremony. Her eyes were filled with curiosity.

She quietly tugged at Wen Nian’s clothes. “Why do you need a pig head?”

“The pig head is here to show respect. In ancient times, there were many emperors who specialized in raising divine pigs to attract blessings and ward off evil spirits. The opening ceremony is also a solemn event. The pig head must be used.”

Jin Ting looked at the pig’s head again and said in a muffled voice, “Sister Nian, didn’t your mother send you a braised pig’s head this morning? Why doesn’t the production team use braised pig’s head? It smells good! This pig’s head is too ugly and smells like blood. Isn’t it like dying with eyes opened?”

It was unknown if it was because he heard Jin Ting’s voice, but Sun Zhi was furious.. He shouted, “Who bought the pig head? Who is it? Are you going against me?”
