With such looks, no way she wasn’t a big hit in the entertainment industry. Song Guanjing stared at the girl standing in front of her for a while before her senses finally returned. Judging from how cautious Xiang Kun was acting, this girl must be no simpleton. In fact, she was probably the sort of person who looked down on people working in the entertainment field.
“Mr. Xiang.” Gu Xiqiao nodded her head slightly at the agent.
Her voice sounded clear but gentle. In any other context, it should have been comforting to hear her speak.
And yet, hearing Gu Xiqiao call out to him made Xiang Kun tremble with fear. There was still the bracelet on his wrist that was made out of black obsidian beads. It has been a few days since he last experienced nightmares. His sleep schedule no longer disturbed, he slept like a baby last night and the food he ate tasted better than ever. The better he felt, the more he found Gu Xiqiao to be an extraordinary person.
Thus, he had decided to pass this bracelet down to his children as a family treasure.
“You can stop referring to me as Mr. Xiang. I am slightly older than you after all. Just call me Brother Xiang. Likewise, you can call me that too, Xiao Yun.” Was being called ‘brother’ any better than before? Anyhow, it didn’t matter to Gu Xiqiao.
“Brother Xiang,” repeated Gu Xiqiao.
Xiang Kun was elated upon hearing her call him ‘Brother Xiang’. Song Guanjing was shocked to see that look on his face during that moment.
Everyone in the industry knew that Xiang Kun was a gold-tier agent who has only had A-list celebrities working under him. However, his contracts with these celebrities would never last longer than two years. With his wide connections and a near endless pool of resources, two years’ time was more than enough for him to turn a rookie actress into an A-list celebrity.
This was her first time seeing him suck up to another person. Of course, Song Guanjing was at a loss for words. She shifted her gaze over to the young woman and when their eyes met, she flashed her a warm, gentle smile. “Nice to meet you two, I’m Song Guanjing.”
Xiao Yun shot up from her seat instantly. “Nice to meet you too, Sister Song. My name’s Xiao Yun.”
“Xiao Yun?” Song Guanjing scanned her from head to toe. She was no doubt, a looker and what caught her eye was the cold, distant vibe Xiao Yun gave off. “You should be the rookie Brother Xiang’s working with. I guess we’re colleagues then. You can refer to me as your ‘senior’ from now on.”
Li Yu, who had just finished acting in a scene too, walked over. Back then, he worked alongside Song Guanjing under Xiang Kun. Hence, they were already well-acquainted with each other. “Guanjing, the director needs you to head over to the dressing room and put some makeup on.”
Song Guanjing sighed. “I’ve just come back and he’s already making a slave out of me. I guess little has changed about Director Cheng.”
“You should hurry up too. Else there’ll be no end when Director Cheng starts babbling away.” Remembering how Cheng Zhou was murmuring to himself just now, Li Yu jabbed at his old friend.
“Seems like he’s in a pretty foul mood today, doesn’t he?” Song Guanjing smacked her forehead. This was one of Cheng Zhou’s issues. Whenever he gets pissed off, it would turn into an ordeal for the people working under him. “Which one of you did that to him?”
Li Yu looked over in Gu Xiqiao’s direction. “No one, he’s just a little frustrated, I think.”
Frustrated? Song Guanjing seemed skeptical about it but she headed for the dressing room nonetheless. No way in hell was she going to risk getting a lecture by Cheng Zhou.
