Chapter 336: Curiosity
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Thinking of the banquet, Gu Hanhan felt very awkward.
She said, “It’s nothing, I was just a little curious. I thought it was a joke before. After all, CEO Li has a noble status. It would be a little silly to say that he’s going to be a security guard.”
Jiang Ling’er said with a smile, “Miss Gu, no need to say anything more. I still have a contract with CEO Li. It’s written in black and white.”
“You’re really amazing to be able to get CEO Li to sign the contract,” Gu Hanhan pretended to be impressed.
In fact, she was very jealous.
“It’s just business,” Jiang Ling’er said deliberately. “Who doesn’t know how to earn money?”
When Gu Hanhan heard this, she suddenly realized that it was a business deal. Despite that, since even Li Yu had signed a contract to be her security guard and driver, Jiang Ling’er was definitely not someone to be trifled with.
Gu Hanhan was about to say something when she suddenly saw a beautiful girl walking over.
“Good morning, Junior Jiang,” Zhu Xiaotong said.
“Good morning, Senior Zhu, “Jiang Ling’er said politely. “Your outfit looks really nice.”
Zhu Xiaotong spun around and said happily, “My grandfather specially asked someone to design this Hanfu. It was tailor-made for me. Today, the Student Union organized a Hanfu photography class, so I’m wearing it. Do you want to come with me?”
“I’ll pass. I won’t join in the fun.” Jiang Ling’er shook her head.
Zhu Xiaotong facepalmed and said, “I’m really dumb, I forgot you’re a performance major. How can a Hanfu photography class be more fun than filming?”
“Well, filming isn’t for fun,” Jiang Ling’er said with a smile when she heard the sourness in her words.
Zhu Xiaotong said, “Others might do it for money, but you don’t lack money,”
Jiang Ling’er said, “I’m not short of money, but I won’t go against receiving any. Acting is also a profession. As long as you’re in this position, you have to do what you should do. That’s why I didn’t become an actress for fun.”
Zhu Xiaotong’s expression changed and she said, “Although that’s the case, some people want to be a star because of money, while others do it for vanity. Compared to some people, you’re very lucky because you can do what you like. Others can’t even choose.”
Jiang Ling’er said helplessly, “Alas, it’s not my fault I was born with good skills. To be honest with you, even if I’m filming, I still have to see if the script is good or bad. I need to make sure it’s worth my efforts.”
Seeing Jiang Ling’er’s smug look, Zhu Xiaotong felt both angry and jealous.
“You’re still a newbie. How can you choose the script?” Gu Hanhan asked with some doubt.
Generally speaking, it was already good enough for a newcomer to take on a role.
Jiang Ling’er nodded. “Well of course I have to. Even if it’s a cameo, it has to be an excellent script. That way, you can learn from some powerful old actors.”
Gu Hanhan narrowed her eyes and sneered in her heart. If Jiang Ling’er wanted a good script, she had to see if the other party was willing to let her go or not.
Although she was disdainful in her heart, she still looked like she agreed on the surface.
Gu Hanhan said, “You’re right. I agree with you.”
“Miss Gu, why are you here? Are you looking for Junior Jiang?” asked Zhu Xiaotong.
“You know me?” Gu Hanhan asked in confusion.
Zhu Xiaotong replied, “Of course. I was lucky enough to pick you up at last year’s year-end banquet, but I didn’t recognize you at first with your outfit,”
Jiang Ling’er laughed in her heart. This was another person Gu Hanhan couldn’t recognize.
“I’m sorry,” Gu Hanhan said awkwardly. “I don’t seem to remember you.”
“I’m Zhu Xiaotong. Nice to meet you.” Zhu Xiaotong smiled stiffly.
Gu Hanhan didn’t want to shake hands with Zhu Xiaotong, but since she had already extended her hand, Gu Hanhan couldn’t refuse.
When the two of them shook hands, Jiang Ling’er said, “I’ve reached my destination. You two still have to go forward. I won’t accompany you anymore. Goodbye.”
“Okay, I’ll treat you to a meal when I have time.” Gu Hanhan smiled.
“Sure, Miss Gu.” Jiang Ling’er smiled. “See you when we have time.”
“Are you very close to Jiang Ling’er, Miss Gu?” Zhu Xiaotong asked as soon as Jiang Ling’er left.
“It has nothing to do with you whether I’m familiar with Jiang Ling’er or not,” Gu Hanhan said with a smile.
Zhu Xiaotong said in a fawning manner, “Jiang Ling’er is a very sinister person. I was afraid that you would be taken advantage of, so I just wanted to ask.”
“I don’t want anything from her,” Gu Hanhan said sarcastically. “How could I suffer a loss? If you have time to waste like this, you should study more so that you won’t be played by others in the future..”
