Chapter 164: Breaking Through the Siege
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
When Gu Xiao received the call from the station director, she was curled up on the sofa with Chu An. The television on the wall was playing “The Prosperity of Great Tang Dynasty”.
After saying goodbye to the station director, Gu Xiao hung up the phone and glanced sideways at Chu An with a smile on her face.
“We’ve successfully broken out of the siege!” Even though she had long been mentally prepared for this, she could not help but be excited when she really received the good news.
After Huang Tu failed to block “The Prosperity of Great Tang Dynasty”, they also took out their trump card, an adaptation of a great IP with a lineup of big stars, and even the promotional efforts were much greater than their “The Prosperity of Great Tang Dynasty”.
However, even under such circumstances, their “The Prosperity of Great Tang Dynasty” still got the highest viewership ratings recently. Although it had not broken the record, it was not impossible if it continued like this.
If they could really break the record in viewership ratings and gain a good reputation, which television station would not be willing to work with them in the future?
Chu An nestled himself in Gu Xiao’s arms and rubbed against her neck.
“Yes! 1 heard it too! We can start filming the next television drama without any worries!”
What’s more, with this result, even if other television stations were still wary about Ji Gao and Huang Tu in the future, Cherry TV would forever be their backup plan!
Gu Xiao patted Chu An’s arm that was around her waist. “Relax, it’s too tight!” She could even feel a little strangled!
When Chu An heard this, he looked at Gu Xiao’s gaze and blinked innocently. However, he still did as Gu Xiao said and loosened his grip a little.
Seeing that Gu Xiao was no longer resistant, Chu An buried his head in the back of Gu Xiao’s neck and gently sniffed the other party’s scent.
“Then can we have a good rest now?” Chu An’s voice was very low, and the tone of his words couldn’t be determined.
Gu Xiao’s body stiffened, and she looked down at Chu An. “What are you talking about? Why do 1 hear…”
“The light in your room.” Chu An didn’t wait for Gu Xiao to finish retorting and directly interrupted her. “1 saw the light coming out from the crack in the door at night, at a very late time.”
When he realized that Gu Xiao wasn’t as confident and calm as she appeared to be, Chu An wondered if he should directly be honest with Gu Xiao or look for his father to resolve this matter.
However, when he thought of Gu Xiao’s determined gaze, he gave up on this plan.
He just stood quietly outside Gu Xiao’s room every night and waited for the lights in the room to completely dim before returning to his room to rest.
“You know everything?” Gu Xiao sounded a little embarrassed.
Chu An gave a soft “hmm” before raising his head to look at the uncomfortable Gu Xiao. He raised his hand and gently rubbed Gu Xiao’s head.
“1 know you want to calm the hearts of people in the company, so you can’t show any timidity. But in front of me, you don’t have to hide it.” No matter what, he would be by Gu Xiao’s side.
Gu Xiao met Chu An’s gaze and quickly lowered her eyes.
Her hands by her side moved slightly, but in the end, she still slowly pinched the corner of Chu An’s clothes. She rested her chin on his shoulder with a relaxed smile in her eyes.
“Yes, I understand. It won’t happen again after this.”
After getting a satisfactory answer, Chu An raised his hand again and stroked Gu Xiao’s head.
Although “The Prosperity of Great Tang Dynasty” did not break the previous record of viewership ratings in the end, the viewership ratings were still the highest in recent years. It was also a television drama with a good reputation.
At this moment, the market was becoming less and less tolerant of television dramas that only had actors with good looks and no acting skills. The Prosperity of Great Tang Dynasty had appeared at this time, so it naturally garnered the audience’s love and praise.
The Prosperity of Great Tang Dynasty was like a calming pill that filled everyone in the Star Brilliance with confidence.
When the good news came from Star Brilliance, Ji Gao sent someone to look for Ji Chen.
When Ji Chen got the news, thoughts flashed in his mind and he followed the man to Ji Gao’s office.
During this period of time, in order to know Ji Gao’s actions, Ji Chen gradually put his focus on Ji Group. However, Ji Chen’s actions seemed to have made Ji Gao misunderstand something, and Ji Gao became more vigilant towards Ji Chen..
