"Fine, fine, fine, I’ll call you once the time is set."
Liang He hung up the phone, tossed his cellphone aside, and then picked it up again after dozens of seconds to call Long Tianjiao. The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the NoveIꜰire.net
Receiving his call, Long Tianjiao was flustered, not knowing what Liang He’s attitude was at the moment. Would he lash out at her?
In the end, she still answered, and upon hearing Liang He’s tone, Long Tianjiao’s heart steadied.
"Agreeing is just to shield me from my mom’s marriage nagging, Tian Jiao. You and I have no common topics, and I don’t particularly like your temperament. I’ve heard from your brother that you also have no interest in me, which is good. If within three years either of us finds someone we love, we can both propose to end the engagement. What do you think?"
"I think so too, but there’s one thing, Liang He. To maintain the appearance of being a real engaged couple and deceive your parents and mine, we’ll need to meet regularly and take photos together to show our families, to prove we are truly trying to blend. You don’t oppose this, right?"
"Regular meetings? How many times a month?"
Long Tianjiao, suppressing her inner ecstasy, calmly replied, "I think once a week would be good, at least four times a month. What do you think?"
Liang He agreed, "However, I’m on the film set, and I don’t plan to take leave."
"I’ll be following a teacher to study acting soon, so I will find time to visit you on the set."
Long Tianjiao hung up the phone, feeling as if she had flown up into the air, and she hurriedly ran to the living room and cheered.
"Mom, Grandma and Grandpa, Liang He agreed! He actually said yes!"
Dragon Mother smiled, "That’s because he doesn’t have someone he likes right now. If he does, we’ll see if he would agree. We can only help you so far, Tian Jiao. The rest is up to you. We’ve made a promise to the Liang Family after all, and Liang He has the right to call off the engagement at any time."
"I understand, I understand, thank you." Long Tianjiao gathered her strength, "I will definitely perform well!"
Old Madam Long couldn’t help but chuckle, "Yo yo yo, is our Tian Jiao about to change herself for love?"
"Of course. I’ll certainly make Liang He see me in a new light. But don’t let on that I like him, otherwise, he’ll call off the engagement."
"We know, no one will tell. Your brother just called to say that the Anton Family’s heir, Antonio, is setting up a small talent agency in City A, and your sister-in-law has invested as well. They suggested you sign up here. I think it’s feasible. Those big talent agencies have too many people. It’s better to be with our own. Rest assured, since you’re entering this industry, Grandma will find a renowned drama teacher to instruct you from scratch. You can’t act like a diva to them; whatever they say, you must listen."
"Grandma, I won’t, I’ll study hard."
Old Madam Long nodded, "Good."
Antonio applied for company registration with the business administration department. Given his status, coupled with Long Group’s connections, it was approved within days.
With a business license, they had a location too.
It was Gu Lili’s dual-use, two-story storefront.
Originally he had wanted to rent a suite in an office building.
But Gu Lili said she had a spacious storefront worth nine million that was just sitting idle, suggesting it be used instead, and to lease the neighboring properties as well.
After visiting Gu Lili’s place, Antonio immediately decided to proceed as she had suggested.
Equipping the office with all the necessary equipment and furniture was all arranged by him; Gu Lili only played the role of a hands-off executive.
