Although he closed himself off in shock, in the end, Gao Jiaxuan still accepted Rong Qing’s olive branch. Compared to the good impression that was created through Xian Ziqi’s lies, what moved him more was Rong Qing’s hint that through their collaboration, he could one day get strong enough to take over the family business.
“Glad to do business with you.” Gao Jiaxuan finished their conversation, feeling completely refreshed and relaxed all over.
He also didn’t know why he would suddenly have a favorable opinion towards Xiao Ziqi. He has always abided by a personal rule against getting involved with performing artists that worked in his own company. Thinking again, Gao Jiaxuan suddenly had cold sweats.
He and Song Xian were very similar. In the house, the old man still held a large portion of the stocks. At most, he only counted as a successor. Especially with his family. Originally, the old man came from Port city. When he was young, he went to all sorts of messed up places, and was excessively open minded. The number of concubines in his family reached 17-18. When Gao Jiaxuan sees them, he still has to call each one of them step-mom.
Although he was born from the main wife, the only reason that the old man finally became willing to give him 20% of the company stocks was because he suddenly showed potential in high school.
If the news about him hooking up with a performing artist from the company was discovered by those concubine’s children….
He suddenly woke up as if from a dream. He looked at Rong Qing as if Rong Qing was his second set of parents. Too close…. He almost lost the chance to inherit the Gao family business! He might have even been forced to give up what he had already earned!
Shaking his head, he tossed aside that terrifying thought and invited extremely thankfully: “I don’t know if CEO Rong has the time, shall we get something to eat together?”
Rong Qing shot him a strange look.: “It’s this easy to make an appointment with you? I need to look through my schedule in order to know if I’m free.”
He was a big boss. Everyday, his schedule was filled to the brim. Even arranging for a meal needed 4-5 days of planning ahead!
Gao Jiaxuan also discovered that he asked a very stupid question and said with a fawning smile: “For a moment, I forget that CEO Rong is a very busy man. You must have some important meetings after this, right?”
His tone was a little sour. Since high school, Rong Qing has always been the cliff-top flower. It was extremely hard to arrange to meet him. At least, all those goddesses that he liked, never managed to successfully meet Rong Qing.
“While I don’t have any meetings,” Rong Qing was beaming with delight: “I plan to do some overtime, then fly over to see Lin Ji and comfort his injured, soft heart a bit.”
He had to take credit for his achievements! Or else, what if the wolf pup never learned of what he’s done?
Gao Jiaxuan turned sour.
Gao Jiaxuan became suspicious.
“I thought you were only investing in him in a strictly professional manner.” From what Rong Qing said before, he thought it was all business.

Gao Jiaxuan wanted to say something but hesitated.
Maybe he really did have a misunderstanding?
With the words he wanted to say hanging on the tip of his tongue, he looked at Rong Qing who clearly looked like he was excited and anxious to go meet a lover, and finally said what he couldn’t hold back.
“Lin Ji is an actor. If you and he have any news scandals, the result will be even worse than any scandals arising from him and Xiao Ziqi.” One of them, at least they can say it was emotions formed from acting together. The other… Rong Qing was a big CEO that even Gao Jiaxuan couldn’t compare to. There definitely will be many people trying to smear them, saying Lin Ji was being paid for sexual favors.
“I know.” Rong Qing nodded his head, “Don’t worry. I won’t let anything happen to him.”
Didn’t he rush over to Gao Jiaxuan to fix this issue as soon as he heard about the thing with Xiao Ziqi? He was a big boss in the end. He at least had the ability to protect Lin Ji.
“It’s best if you behave yourself.” Gao Jiaxuan thought in his heart Rong Qing should know well enough, and didn’t say anymore. Not too long after Rong Qing left, he immediately made a phone call.
“Make an arrangement. Give Lin Ji a new agent.”
…
“Why a new one? Isn’t his agent also managing Xiao Ziqi? I heard after he gave Lin Ji’s assistant to Xiao Ziqi, he never found Lin Ji a new one. Probably because he can’t manage two at once.”
…
“Lin Ji has new assistants? Who arranged it for him?”
(Note: We’re only hearing what Gao Jiaxuan is saying in this phone call. Don’t be confused like I was.)
Expression turning strange as he heard Rong Qing’s name coming from the other side of the call, Gao Jiaxuan became puzzled.
This still didn’t count as love?
“I understand. Then forget about the new assistant. However, his agent still needs to be changed. Don’t waste such a good talent.”
After instructing, Gao Jiaxuan sat for a while. Abruptly, he pulled out his phone.
No! He needed to cause some trouble for Xiao Ziqi! He lost so much face in front of Rong Qing today!
However, receiving the message that the other’s phone was off again after calling several times, Gao Jiaxuan suddenly remembered. At this time, Xiao Ziqi should still be filming in the deep forest.
Receiving little CEO Gao’s instructions, the head office of the company immediately had a small meeting and settled on the new agent for Lin Ji —- Gao Ning.
She and the little CEO Gao can distantly count as relatives. She was an old but experienced agent in the company. She managed a few first tier celebrities in the past, as well as a movie queen that just retired. If it wasn’t for the fact that the movie queen planned to take a rest because she’s already 40 and haven’t married yet, Lin Ji definitely wouldn’t have had the chance to have Gao Ning available as an agent.
(Note: Gonna use movie king/queen for an actor/actress who has won the best acting award.)
Upon receiving the news, Gao Ning didn’t have any objections. She directly found Lin Ji’s original agent and asked him for Lin Ji’s information. The original agent seemed somewhat annoyed and a bit of sullen: “There’s none. What kind of information can he have? He’s just an actor, what kind of status do you think he has?”
Changing an agent meant what exactly? How he could not know. But he really couldn’t wrap his head around it. If Lin Ji really was worth this much, then why didn’t he show it before? For Lin Ji to cause a ruckus like this in the company, the agent lost so much face today!
“What kind of status?” Gao Ning’s voice sounded a bit fresh: “He’s the company’s future money making tree. I heard that an investor paid 30 million for his sake in his latest film production. As an agent, shouldn’t you have at least this little bit of insight?”
She sneered, then looked down on him in her 6 inch high heels: “Then again, to have the two resourceful performers you managed to sell CP together for fame, you probably don’t even have eyes, much less insight.” After being an agent for so many years, this was the first time she saw someone make such a terrible move with such a good set up.
The original agent’s face turned blue.
“They’re on the same film set right now. Selling CP can increase their exposure and attract fans, what’s so bad about it?” Who the heck did Gao Ning think she was? The movie queen she was managing retired to get married and have children. What qualifications did she have to berate him?
Gao Ning chuckled and curled her lips: “To be able to ask this kind of question, you not only lack eyes, your head’s probably filled with water. Since you’re not going to hand over the info, then forget it. From someone like you, the info is probably not good anyways. I’m going to have the company transfer his contract over to me immediately. I don’t care what kind of arrangements you scheduled before, delete them all. If there are ones you can’t get rid of, send me an email. From now on, Lin Ji will be managed by me.”
Done talking, she picked up her handbag and swaggered off.
My time is precious. I don’t want to interact anymore with this kind of scum.
Gao Ning moved very quickly. As soon as she got Lin Ji’s web information from the company, she swiftly cancelled a whole bunch of messed up things, deleted whatever needed to be deleted, then finally, sent a post.
Lin Ji vlog: [I’m Lin Ji’s new agent, Gao Ning. Everyone, please take good care of me. (Before Lin Ji was only allowed to take a quick break in the morning. Now he’s back to filming in the deep forest. All of you fans, please forgive him.)]
After she finished posting, the mailbox gave an alert. Shapely eyebrows raising slightly, she opened it to take a look. She was fine before looking. Afterwards, the color of her face turned as black as the bottom of a wok.
No wonder when she just researched Lin Ji, she felt that he looked pretty good, had substantial acting skills, and the films he’s been in were not bad, but why has he never been on fire?
Looking at the schedule his original agent had arranged, she thought, it’d be more strange if he could become popular with this! There were even some jobs from what she considered to be trash advertising companies! If these kinds of advertisement companies dared to appear in front of her, she’d immediately take off her heels and chase them out. Lin Ji’s original agent actually made plans with these kinds of people?
Looking to the end of the agenda, Gao Ning was so mad she laughed: “What kind of retarded idiot is this? Selling CP is bad enough, yet he also planned to have them participate in a reality show together? Is he not afraid they’ll be ground to paste and buried?!”
She immediately sent an ‘extremely friendly’ reply to that idiot’s email, then started making phone calls one by one. As soon as Gao Ning said her name, many of the advertising companies that originally planned to cause trouble over the breach in contract immediately laid down quietly and waved their flag.
Gao Ning didn’t fret over some of the harder to push off programs, and immediately had other artists that she managed take Lin Ji’s place. Lin Ji’s future was not a high traffic idol. These reality shows and game shows weren’t very useful to him. To say it frankly, one can even say the company was just draining his blood and completely didn’t arrange anything for him before.
These swift and decisive actions of hers made many people extremely dissatisfied. They directly called the original agent’s cellphone and yelled at him. Some even mocked him, saying he was incompetent to let a cooked duck that was already in front of his mouth fly away.
The original agent was insulted so much that his eyes turned red. But this wasn’t all.
Very quickly, he received information from the head of the water army, saying that the company higher-ups have new instructions so they must wash-clean all the CP materials from before. He very much wanted to say ‘don’t listen to them, listen to me’, but he understood that as long as he still worked for the company, then he can’t jump over the company’s orders.
Especially Gao Ning. In his eyes, she was a hard to leap over mountain peak.
Very quickly, Lin Ji’s fans, who already held some suspicions, immediately discovered these changes.
[New agent! My god! Lil bro finally changed agents?! I’m so happy I could cry! So before, the stupid plan to sell CP was orchestrated by the previous agent?]
[Good news! Although this sounds a bit bad, I have to say it. Lil bro should have changed his agent a long time ago ahaha! He’s clearly handsome and capable, but every time he’s forced to play a bad hand. Now that he finally got the role of the male lead, I hope this is the start of a new beginning!]
A fan even sent a quick analysis post to bounce off the enthusiasm.
[Just what kind of exotic flower was the lil bro’s agent and how lil bro was screwed over by him all these years, I’m sharing this post today on this grand occasion for everyone to read!]
