nInside a building…

n“Mr. Li, something happened.” An assistant came in hurriedly.

nLi Shaonan looked up, an indication for him to continue.

nThe assistant directly showed Li Shaonan the news.

n#Superstar Jiang Nian went from the stage to backstage and took over Starlight Entertainment#

nThe news was released by the largest media outlets. And as soon as it was released, it became the hottest topic; other negative articles about Jiang Nian immediately became less popular.

nShe was in charge of Starlight Entertainment. Would she care for that role?

nLi Shaonan slid down to the bottom of the article, in which there was a picture. In that picture, a woman wore a light-colored dress and smiled softly, as if she cherished the whole world. Even the light in her eyes was gentle.

nBut Li Shaonan knew all of that was fake. What she had done was the complete opposite of gentle.

nSuch a scheming woman was exactly what he hated most.

n“Jiang family, Jiang Nian?” Li Shaonan put down his cell phone and snorted. “Research her for me.”

nShe should have some relation to the Jiang family.

nThe assistant complied and left the office. After only an hour, he returned.

n“Mr. Li, Jiang Nian really isn’t simple.” The assistant delivered several pages of information to Li Shaonan and said, “She’s the young miss of the Jiang family.”

n“The young miss of the Jiang family?” Li Shaonan looked up; a hint of dark light flashed in his eyes. “Why didn’t the Jiang family propagandize her before?”

n“It is said that the Jiang family didn’t agree with her entering showbiz and even shunned her. But they finally agreed, only didn’t provide any help.” The assistant shared what he knew with Li Shaonan.

nSo Jiang Nian had succeeded only because of her own hard work and contribution.

nOf course, there might be somebody who knew Jiang Nian’s real identity and provided her help. But they didn’t say that openly.

nLi Shaonan put down his pen and read several pages of the information. “The Jiang family…”

nLi Shaonan looked at the smiling woman in the online article and suddenly closed it, snorting. Do you think you have nothing to worry about with the protection of the Jiang family?

nNaive!

nIn this industry, I have the final say.

n…

nAileen’s expression was surprised and confused at this time. How had Jiang Nian changed her identity in one night?

nAnd this new identity was powerful.

nAileen knew that Jiang Nian’s background was a little powerful, but she didn’t realize exactly how powerful. So when Jiang Nian was involved in romantic rumors before, she really wasn’t very worried.

nThe Jiang family was as powerful as the Li family. With the exception of showbiz, the Jiang family played an important role in many fields. If it wasn’t for showbiz, the Jiang family would already have exceeded the Li family.

nWho could ever have thought that she was the young miss of the Jiang family?

nMing Shu ate candied fruit and threw a document at Aileen. “Sister Aileen, look at this contract. Do you have any interest in working for Starlight Entertainment?”

n“You want me to hop jobs?” Aileen stopped thinking other things and looked at Ming Shu.

nWith a smile, Ming Shu explained, “Sister Aileen, there is a saying: ‘A wise bird chooses the tree it will nest on, and a wise vassal chooses the lord he will serve.’ This is not job-hopping but choosing a better future for yourself.”

nAileen remained silent. The Jiang family was powerful and had lots of money. Even though Jiang Nian failed this time, she wouldn’t lose out too much.

nJiang Nian could leave whenever she wanted, but Aileen couldn’t.

nBut just as Jiang Nian said, Aileen didn’t have much of a chance for promotion in the company she was working at now. If she didn’t choose a better way for herself, she would continue like this.

n“You…” Aileen looked at Jiang Nian, who she had worked with for so many years, brow furrowing, and said, “Jiang Nian, let’s be honest today. Are you going to oppose Li Shaonan?”

nLi Shaonan just took away her role. After that, she took charge of the Jiang family’s new entertainment company. Her reasoning couldn’t be more obvious.

n“Do you dare to stick with me?” Ming Shu winked at Aileen.

n“I’ll think about it.” Aileen put her hand on her forehead. This was no small matter. She couldn’t make a decision all at once.

nMing Shu shrugged and smiled. “Starlight Entertainment will welcome Sister Aileen at any time.”

n…

nTheir new boss was about to arrive, so Starlight Entertainment would hold a welcoming party. With Master Jiang’s acquiescence, this party was handled by Jiang Xun. The guests included both those working in showbiz and in other fields.

nOn such an occasion, no matter whether there was enmity between the host and their guests, according to tradition, the host should invite all the appropriate people. Li Shaonan therefore attended with Ning Keqing.

nNing Keqing was popular recently. It seemed Li Shaonan didn’t hide their relationship and took her out in public more and more often.

nAs soon as they appeared, they immediately became the center of attention.

n“Mr. Li, is Miss Ning Keqing your girlfriend?”

n“Mr. Li, what’s the relationship between you and Miss Ning? You came here with her, are you going to admit your relationship in public?”

n“Mr. Li, can you tell us how you know each other?”

nLi Shaonan protected Ning Keqing, squeezed past those journalists who fired questions constantly, and came into the hall.

nNing Keqing still wore a white dress, pure and lovely. She held Li Shaonan with a slightly red face; it was hard to tell whether she was hot or shy.

nShe looked around the hall and said, “I never thought that Sister Jiang Nian was the young miss of the Jiang family. No wonder she’s so successful.”

nIn her last life, she still didn’t know it by the time she died.

nLi Shaona sneered. “She bullies you in such a way and you still speak up for her?”

nNing Keqing opened her small, cherry-like mouth and said, “No… Actually Sister Jiang Nian never did anything. I don’t blame her.”

nShe knew Li Shaonan would became angrier because of her words.

nHe could only vent his rage on Jiang Nian.

nJiang Nian, it’s you who offended me first, so don’t blame me for doing this.

nThe domineering boss scoffed. “I won’t let others bully you randomly.”

n“Well, I just like to bully her,” a clear, smiling voice said from off to the side.

nA beautifully dressed woman detached herself from the crowd. She wore a fiery red dress which enhanced her good looks and resembled a blossoming rose.

nLi Shaonan narrowed his eyes slightly and lowered his voice. “Jiang Nian, do you think that I can’t deal with you when you have the support of the Jiang family?”

n“How can you deal with me? By hitting me?” Ming Shu stopped and asked with a smile.

nAlthough she smiled gently, everyone could see her arrogance. She didn’t even need to show off her arrogance, it radiated from inside her.

nLi Shaonan became extremely furious. It had been a long time since anyone dared to contradict him.

nBut he was not young anymore and quickly suppressed his rage. “Well, let’s wait and see.”

nMing Shu glanced at Ning Keqing and smiled gently at her. “Let’s wait and see.”

nFor no reason, Ning Keqing suddenly felt cold and dared not look into Ming Shu’s eyes. She glanced away, clutching her dress tightly, and moved closer to Li Shaonan.

nLi Shaonan almost dragged Ning Keqing away. Ming Shu stood there, watching them disappear into the crowd. She only stopped watching them when someone came to speak with her.
