Two months later, it was the end of the year, and major award ceremonies and various banquet activities were held one after another. This period was also the busiest time of the year. Although Jiang Nian didn’t stir waves for half a year, she still received many invitations.

That day Jiang Nian was filming the scene of jumping to take cover while shooting in air. The smooth and natural acting that brought the essence of the role made the director applaud, he was extremely satisfied with the good-looking fighting scene just now. The fake gun in Jian Nian’s hand was skillfully reinserted back to her waist and handed the assistant. She then took a bottle of water and went to one side to rest while drinking.

Jia Ping came over and said with a smile: “Except for those bad things with Sun Xu and Wang Jingjing these days, you have not had much exposure in the past six months. I think there are a few activities that are can be done, just to show up, otherwise the audience will forget about you. It just so happens that Dawn’s filming is nearly finished.”

Jiang Nian thought for a moment, then shook her head and said, “I still don’t go. I don’t have any works now. Even if there are news surrounding me, it won’t be a good thing. The stale grain, overcooked sesame (the same boring old gossip) will be discussed again, which is not necessarily good . Instead, it’s better not to have this exposure. Besides, most of the people on the Internet who helped me just spoke out of sympathy, if this matter has been hyped by the media, others will bother me and I will be annoyed.”

“Jiang Nian, if you don’t participate in the end of the year event and there is no endorsement activity, do you have to wait for “Dawn” to come out? “Dawn” is expected to start broadcasting in October next year. The time is enough for your fans to forget you.”

“So I trouble Brother Jia to pick up a few more good scripts for me.” Jiang Nian said, “Although I won the battle against Sun Xu and Wang Jingjing, the fact is that I also suffered a loss because of it. I can’t turn around only by exposure. The audience will not give me any benefit if they look at me more. Only works and acting skills that can be recognized by the audience and the industry are the things that can save me.”

This makes sense.

Jia Ping discovered that Jiang Nian was indeed a rare and transparent person, who saw things more thoroughly. Of course, the most important thing was not only that she was calm, but also that she had a very good self-understanding and did not have blind self-confidence.?She could withstand wind and rain, and could withstand loneliness even more.

As a result, not only Sun Xu and Wang Jingjing but also Jiang Nian disappeared on major occasions at the end of the year.

Jia Ping now puts his mind on selecting a good script. He is extremely optimistic about Jiang Nian. First, Jiang Nian has a good foundation and has a lot of ideas. What she needs to become famous is just a chance.?The second reason is that Xue Hang is there. With Xue Hang escorting Jiang Nian, it is difficult for Jiang Nian not to be famous.?He is not stupid, he would not take Jiang Nian seriously just because of momentary difficulties.

However, you can skip other activities, but you can’t ignore one of them.

“Xue’s annual meeting, do you want to go?”

Jiang Nian: “........”

In her mind, Xue Hang, wise and rich, was surrounded by riches everywhere. Here, everything is expensive, even the hair is the smell of wealth.. This time, her promiscuous life is going to be hit hard! This is terrible!

Jiang Nian: “Let’s go, then, I still understand the truth of knowing to be grateful. After all, Xue family was the only one to help me when I was down.”

Jia Ping smiled meaningfully. What Xue family is, he sees clearly. It was Xue Hang who was doing business for personal gain, “Well, I’ll go and prepare the dress you’ll wear on the day of attendance.”

“Well, trouble you.”

Jia Ping went to make arrangements.

Jiang Nian sighed with emotion for her inconsistency. It was all because of the fact that Big Gold corroded her mind so well. There is no way, people are selfish.?She looked at the heroine’s halo, who had risen to more than 50 points. This was much better than when she first came. When she first came, it was almost a red light. She worked hard for more than half a year and the score was still slowly rising, it also rose more when Sun Xu and Wang Jingjing were unlucky.

When Xue Hang heard that Jiang Nian accepted the invitation to attend the Xue family’s annual meeting, his heartbeat quickly rose. He raised his mouth slightly, smiled and suddenly saw that the assistant was also happy for him. His smile stiffened, he pressed the corners of his mouth hard, and said coldly: “Is there something else? Or is work too leisurely?”

The?assistant shook his head like a rattle and said that it was all right, and left the office touching his nose, very aggrieved.

Now that the office was empty, Xue Hang held a pen but could not concentrate on his work at all. Finally, he simply put aside his work for a while, got up and walked to the window, looking at the tall buildings under his feet.

He was a little nervous, and he was still looking forward to it. Although the contact with Jiang Nian hadn’t been broken in the past two months, they hadn’t seen each other since last time.?Jiang Nian turned down all activities, but was willing to come to the Xue family’s annual meeting. Is it really just an acknowledgment of kindness?

Of course he hopes her feeling to be more than just gratefulness.

His attitude was so obvious, but he didn’t know if Jiang Nian was moved and whether it was because of him that she was shaken, did the suffering in her heart lighten??Had she you let go of the past?

It was the first time that Xue Hang became anxious because he liked a girl, but Jiang Nian could be thought of, and he was full of joy and joy.

....

Xue’s annual meeting was held in a five-star hotel under Xue’s name. On the day of the annual meeting, people came and went on the red carpet in front of the hotel’s gate. In addition to Xue’s employees, several celebrities were invited either to perform or to attend, and naturally many reporters also came, it was like a small red carpet, full of excitement.

Xue Hang wore a black suit that matched with his black hair. He was meticulous and imperceptible. He also wore a black tie at the neckline. He put a Patek Philippe (I guess a watch brand?) on his wrist and asked, “Is Jiang Nian here? “

The?assistant replied dutifully: “Yes, she’s already here.”

He faintly hummed, fastened the buttons of his suit then walked to the banquet hall.

Jiang Nian had been here for a while, and eating a few snacks and fruits, clearly bored. Jia Ping introduced some important figures from the Xue family in her ear, and after the introduction, he whispered with a small smile: “Actually, you already know Xue’s most powerful figure, and these people don’t need to think too much about it, but it’s really hard to say how long the relationship will last. As for marriage and divorce, it doesn’t hurt to know a few more people. The relationship in the circle is the most important thing.”

When?Xue Hang arrived, he heard Jia Ping and Jiang Nian instilling unreliable feelings, what can be broken up together, marriage or divorce, telling her that Xue Hang is so rich and powerful that he has encountered temptations. Now he likes you, but who know if he will still like you in the future.. Jiang Nian listened very seriously, with a look of eagerness to learn.

Xue Hang’s face was cold, Jia Ping was really too idle at work, otherwise how come he had time to talk about this messy nonsense.

The little assistant trembled when he saw his boss’s dark complexion, so he closed his eyes and didn’t bear to look at the scene anymore. Jia Ping won’t even know the cause of his death in the future, not even looking at the occasion and saying bad things about the boss!

However, Jiang Nian said worriedly: “Brother Jia, I am really worried about this. The temptation outside is so big, I am afraid that I can’t resist it.”

After all, she is going to gather beauties left and right.

Jia Ping: “..what???” Did he mean that?

Assistant: “..Puff!!” Are you really that courageous???

Xue Hang: “..heh.”

He raised his foot and walked closer, and coughed neither lightly nor heavily. As soon as Jia Ping raised his head, he saw Xue Hang who was staring at him coldly. He was so scared that he stood up quickly, and secretly comforted himself, the other party didn’t hear him, right? He laughed: “Mr. Xue, hello, hello! When did you arrive, come, come, please sit down..”

Jiang Nian raised her eyes and saw the handsome and elegant man in a straight suit standing in front of her, glowing under the lights.

Xue Hang’s arrival made the entire venue quiet for a moment, many of them looked over in secret, and some whispered that the relationship between Xue Hang and Jiang Nian was definitely not ordinary!?Many people envied Jian Nian and were jealous of her. After all, this was Xue Hang, the head of the Xue family!?With him, let alone the rest of their lives, they won’t have to worry for a few consecutive lifetimes.?Jiang Nian was also lucky, Xue Hang came as soon as she left Sun Xu.

Jiang Nian’s eyes were almost blinded.. his face looked dark but still handsome!

She stood up and smiled and said, “Mr. Xue, we meet again.”

Xue Hang put his hands in his trouser pockets. He was slender and with a prominent aura that instilled in his bones. When he looked down, he was proud and elegant at the same time. Jia Ping and the assistant knew the situation at a glance, and they retreated while laughing sneakily, running faster than a monkey.

“I just heard you, what are you unable to resist? Hmm?”

“..” Big gold?

Xue Hang snorted and poked her forehead: “Tell me honestly.”

“....???” Jiang Nian felt that she wanted to be honest with the benefactor, how difficult to recognize what’s in one’s own heart. (meaning: she’s still torn between the life of wealth and a promiscuous life)

Xue Hang became accustomed to it. He looked at Jiang Nian’s ?slender neck and delicate earlobes, and he couldn’t help but feel more stuffy: “Sit down for a while, I’ll go and meet some old shareholders.”

Jiang Nian?stood still, watching Xue Hang walk away.

That night, she once again met Xue Hang, who was giving a speech in front of hundreds of people. He looked extremely good, and all his gestures were proud and confident.

Jiang Nian knew that something was going to happen today. The villain in her heart was fighting all the time, but she couldn’t help it. After all, she felt the call of a wealthy life and couldn’t refuse it at all!

The banquet has gone to the lottery draw. I heard that the final prize of this annual meeting is a suite. It was a big prize to say the least.

Jiang Nian enthusiastically scanned WeChat and other lucky draws, praying and looking forward to each round with the most devout heart. I hate that she didn’t even win the smallest Chinese New Year gift package!?Even Jia Ping got a mobile phone!

.. Is Grandpa God of Wealth recovering her fortune because she blasphemed her benefactor??QAQ

Jiang Nian has lost all her thoughts, but after the lottery session, many people who won the prize even came to Jiang Nian to toast and take a group photo for autographs. Jiang Nian was still immersed in the grief of losing a lot of mobile phones, computers and tablets. She didn’t even bother to deal with them, and after talking to Jia Ping, she simply walked away.

Jia Ping likes these social gatherings, and those who come with a smile are not rejected.?The attitude of these people is surprisingly good. Of course, the prizes show that these people are not interested in drinking. It must be Xue Hang’s special care for Jiang Nian at the beginning of the banquet. It made them think that Jiang Nian and Xue Hang are really close.

Not long after Jiang Nian left the banquet hall over there, Xue Hang followed and walked to the corridor window with her. Outside the window was a deep night and the cold wind howled.

“Why aren’t you happy?”

“..My hands are too dark.” (meaning she’s too unlucky)

Xue Hang nodded, and said: “The luck is too bad, you can’t blame anyone.”

Jiang Nian: “..?!”

The benefactor has changed!

Xue Hang smiled, and suddenly stretched out a hand: “I’m lucky, do you want to rub it?” (he says is she wanna rub off the luck he has, and implicitly if she wanna have a relationship with him)

Jiang Nian looked down at Xue Hang’s hand, and it took a lot of effort not to put her hand in his immediately. The villain in her heart can’t move anymore, she is thinking very seriously: in the future, she will have to pay tribute to the promiscuous life that she has not yet started..that is the arrangement of fate..the torture of fate is really something..

Well, it seems that the struggle with fate is about to start again!

He didn’t seem to be in a hurry, he just looked at her seriously, with a gentle face and deep eyes, as if waiting for her decision.

Jiang Nian looked up at him.

Suddenly, Xue Hang’s cell phone rang, and the sudden ringing of the cell phone made his brows slightly twisted. He took out the cell phone and turned it off. Then, just after he switched his phone off, the assistant’s voice came from the corridor, “Eh! Why doesn’t Mr. Xue answer the phone? Hey, Mr. Xue, you are here, Mr. Chen and the others are looking for you..”

The?assistant said happily, and Jiang Nian’s tilted head was clearly seen from behind Xue Hang.

Assistant: “..I, I’ll come back later!”

Cough cough.

hahaha Xue Hang be like: how bad can your luck go when you’re about to confess?

Luck: yes

On another note, I wanna apologize for the (very) late update. My laptop is currently broken, I tried to fix it but they told me it’s too broken to be fixed (RIP my laptop), so I had to translate using my phone which is btw EXTREMELY infuriating. I’m really sorry, I’m broke so y’all have to bear with it until I save enough to buy a new one TwT. But I’ll do my best (and steal my brother’s laptop sometimes too)

Ah, and if I happen to translate chapters earlier than scheduled, you’ll find them in the ko-fi shop. Ofc, earlier release is possible if the goal is reached UwU. There are also some random chapters I translated, so if you like a project tell me, maybe it’ll be my next project after qtwfla!
