The sun was like a fire in the mid-summer.
It had already been more than a week since Jiang Yuning and Vera last met. Moreover, Vera had been forwarding all of Jiang Yuning’s current negotiation to her mailbox. It seemed as though she was really very determined to leave.
Jiang Yuning continued to cooperate and negotiate with those partners that she was interested to work with while she rejected those that she did not want to work with.
However, without Vera, the young paparazzo’s task had become a lot heavier.
“Sister Yuning, I really do not understand how Sister Vera can leave just like this,” the young paparazzo helped Jiang Yuning to reply her emails before he turned around and said to Jiang Yuning. “I think that everyone will see this as a joke.”
“Don’t say that. Vera has already helped me out a lot and she does not owe me anything at all,” Jiang Yuning replied as she sat on the sofa.
“I just think that the human heart is really amazing…”
Jiang Yuning gazed at the young paparazzo with a deep expression on her face before she asked in a joking manner, “Then, I have to give you a heads up now. There will be news about your brother-in-law circulating all around after a short while. Under those circumstances, what kind of choice would you make if this news will definitely affect your career?”
The young paparazzo stopped typing on his laptop before he turned around to look at Jiang Yuning with an earnest expression on his face. “I will always stand on my friend’s side and nothing will ever change that fact.”
“Then…what if there is another premise? What if you will lose everything that you have if you choose to stick with your own friend instead?”
This time, the young paparazzo thought for a short while before he replied, “Even if that is the case, I will not give up on my friend. After all, it is not my friend’s fault. To be honest, sometimes I do not understand a woman’s thoughts at all. In fact, there is a saying that even if there are two very close girlfriends, no one could ever keep up with a brother’s friendship at all.”
Jiang Yuning leaned over before she patted the young paparazzo gently on his head. “You are really a very emotional young man.”
“But…will something really happen to brother-in-law?”
“Well, you will know when the time comes…”
“Damn it.” The young paparazzo snorted. Even if those guys were very smart, it would be strange if he could be fooled by them.
Jiang Yuning laughed when she saw the young paparazzo’s reaction. He was indeed a very good friend.
…
Two days later, Jiang Yuning was already ready to join the crew for <Suffocation>. However, before she left to join the crew, she went to Guangying Media to have a long chat with Shen Yichen.
“Are you sure you do not need me to intervene in your follow-up itinerary? Will you be able to handle everything by yourself?” Shen Yichen asked Jiang Yuning with an uncertain expression on his face.
“Well, I will not have a lot of activities on my schedule after <Suffocation> anyway,” Jiang Yuning replied as she laughed.
“Are you really going to give up being in the spotlight?”
“Director Shen, what do you think about…me taking over your place?”
Shen Yichen: “…”
Shen Yichen panicked a little after listening to Jiang Yuning’s words.
However, it also sounded a little reasonable. Lately, Gu Pingsheng had been thinking about looking for a suitable candidate to take over the position of the vice chairman of Guangying Media. If Shen Yichen took over that position, then the position of the artiste director would be vacant when the time came.
“If you were to take over my place, then the entire entertainment industry will tremble in fear of you. I am really looking forward to that day. In fact, I have a very complicated feeling about this…”
Jiang Yuning smiled as she naturally accepted Shen Yichen’s praise without any humility at all.
However, after coming out of Shen Yichen’s office, Jiang Yuning ran into Vera who was still leading her new artiste around.
The other party was in a hurry and she simply left without even looking at Jiang Yuning.
The both of them did not even greet one another at all.
At this time, Jiang Yuning did not say anything and she simply drove away from Guangying media.
Wasn’t it normal for some people to just completely disappear in the middle of a transition?
That night, Jiang Yuning started packing her luggage to join the crew.
“I have already talked to Uncle and the team from Guangying Media. I will visit your workplace often. When the time is up, I will personally come over to pick you up so that we can go and take our wedding photos.”
The second young master Lu came out after taking a shower and he could not help but wrapped his arms around his little descendant when he saw her squatting on the ground.
“You don’t need to come and visit me all the time. You will only be disturbing me at work! Second young master Lu, can you at least pretend a little since you have already been affected by me?” Jiang Yuning stood up as she leaned into his arms as she tried to absorb all the fragrance of his body.
“Have you really made up your mind?”
“Yes.” Jiang Yuning nodded before she said, “I have already spoken to Director Shen. I asked him to retreat as soon as possible because I am already ready to take over his office and position.”
Lu Jingzhi took advantage of this opportunity to pinch her nose gently. He did not intend to interfere in her decisions.
“You will be joining the crew for a few months now. How are you going to express your love for me?”
“What do you mean?” Jiang Yuning asked as she deliberately played stupid.
“Well, you don’t have to say anything. You just…have to…do it.”
As soon as the second young master’s words landed, Jiang Yuning felt her body flying up in the air as she fell into a pair of strong arms.
…
The next day, Jiang Yuning had to board her plane at nine o’clock in the morning.
The Ginger Candies quickly gathered at the airport to see her off. As Jiang Yuning thought about the change in her future identity, she tried not to put on a cap or mask so that the Ginger Candies could have more memories of her.
On the second day after Jiang Yuning joined the crew, news broke out in the entertainment industry that Jiang Yuning had already changed to a different agent.
This was because someone photographed Vera taking charge of another new artiste.
@EntertainmentToday: “Inside news! It seems as though Jiang Yuning’s relationship with her exclusive agent had broken down completely! They do not even greet or speak to one another when they meet anymore.”
[Perhaps it is just a new job assignment. I don’t think that Vera will just leave Empress Jiang. The both of them have already been working together for such a long time.]
[If it weren’t because of the sweet childhood love line, I would definitely support the love line between Vera and Empress Jiang instead! The both of them make the perfect team. People should not create rumors to stir up trouble!]
[Since Jiang Yuning has already joined the crew, it is only natural for Vera to take on some other work.]
[The entertainment gossip sites are always spreading rumors.]
[Even if the both of them are really not talking to one another, what has it got to do with you? It has only been a few days since the cultural exchange meeting and everyone are spreading rumors again.]
Jiang Yuning had just joined the crew but the rumors were already circulating wildly at this time. Whenever Jiang Yuning had some free time, she would also look through the news and she would just scroll quickly whenever she saw any news speculating about her relationship with Vera.
This time, the young paparazzo was the one overseeing everything for Jiang Yuning when she joined the crew.
Therefore, he was not happy at all when he saw that Empress Jiang was unhappy.
All the Ginger Candies were very biased and they sided with Vera and Jiang Yuning as they tried to speak up and cover up for them. There were also some Ginger Candies who realized that Vera’s recent focus were all on the new artiste and she did not even pay any attention to Empress Jiang who had joined the crew.
However, since Empress Jiang did not say anything, they continued standing on Jiang Yuning’s side.
Everyone originally thought that this incident would just pass if both the parties did not respond at all. Unexpectedly, Vera posted something on her social media account that night.
@Vera: “Work transfer. From now on, I will no longer be responsible for the work and career progression of @JiangJianglovestheScenery in future. I hope that you will do well.”
[Damn it! Did the golden partnership really break?]
[The world is really very surprising. Vera and Jiang Yuning are losing out on each other now.]
[This is all too sudden…]
[That is the reason why Empress Jiang only brought her assistant to the crew with her this time.]
[I really want to know what happened between the both of them.]
[Perhaps, it is really just a job transfer? Isn’t that normal?]
