“Oh, oh.”
Xiao Yinqiu nodded perfunctorily, but her delicate melon seed face clearly read three big words: I don’t believe!
Chatting about work in a hotel room with your pretty little aunt, huh?
Mhm mhm, you’re the boss, whatever you say goes!
Mrs. Xiao silently cursed in her heart.
Seeing that she was misunderstood, Li Manni’s pretty face blushed slightly. She tugged on Xiao Yinqiu’s arm and explained, “Brother-in-law wants me to work at Hucheng Satellite TV, we were talking about that.”
“Ah?”
“To work at Hucheng Satellite TV?”
Xiao Yinqiu was somewhat surprised; she had thought that Li Manni would join Tianmei Media or Maetian Entertainment.
It turned out she’d gone to Hucheng Satellite TV, which actually wasn’t a bad choice for a host.
However, the internal competition at a leading television station like Hucheng Satellite TV was pretty intense, and the interpersonal relationships complex. Knowing Li Manni as she did, Xiao Yinqiu felt her friend might not be well-equipped to handle such complicated relationships.
“Mhm mhm, Brother-in-law is now the major shareholder of Hucheng Satellite TV.”
Probably noticing her friend’s concerns, Li Manni explained further.
As a result, Xiao Yinqiu was even more astonished. She looked incredulously at Yang Hao; this boss had already acquired both Tianmei Media and Maetian Entertainment, two top entertainment companies, and now he’d even bought a television station. It really looked like he was on his way to becoming an entertainment giant.
“So, going forward there will be a lot of collaboration between Tianmei Media and Hucheng Satellite TV.”
“Qiuqiu, do you have any resources you’re interested in?”
Yang Hao also began to call her “Qiuqiu” following Li Manni’s lead.
But Xiao Yinqiu was startled by Yang Hao’s sudden change in address, and she even nervously fidgeted with her fingers.
Before Yang Hao took over Tianmei Media, she was still being shelved. Now she could actually choose resources!
After all, it hadn’t been very long since Xiao Yinqiu’s comeback, and it was a time when she really needed a lot of exposure, and Hucheng Satellite TV did have several variety shows with high national popularity.
Moreover, Hucheng Satellite TV’s “Heartbeat Theater” was also a broadcasting platform for quality TV dramas, with a good reputation.
So when Yang Hao mentioned it, Xiao Yinqiu was quite tempted. If she could have a leading satellite TV station like Hucheng pouring resources into her lap, it would naturally be of great benefit to her career.

“Uhh, can I really choose resources?”
“Happiness comes too suddenly, I’m still dazed!”
Xiao Yinqiu joked with a smile.
“Of course.”
“You’re the artist we at Tianmei Media are eager to promote.”
Yang Hao said with a shrug and a smile.
“Haha, alright!”
“Thank you, Mr. Yang.”
Xiao Yinqiu hastened to express her gratitude. The Mr. Yang before her was not only the boss of Tianmei Media but also of Maetian Entertainment, and now he was also the major shareholder of Hucheng Satellite TV.
“By the way, Mr. Yang.”
“You seem to be quite popular on the internet these days.”
“They all say you’re a dark-hearted CEO.”
Xiao Yinqiu started joking, Yang Hao and Qin Feng’s situation had become a hot online event, trending with great heat, and even Xiao Yinqiu was following the drama.
“Dark-hearted CEO?”
“That’s quite an interesting nickname.”
Yang Hao laughed and shook his head. He was indifferent to these online nicknames and related comments.
Having amassed wealth to this extent, he naturally didn’t fear rumors and gossip.
Good or bad, Yang Hao had an accepting mentality.
While they were chatting, Little White Flower Chen Ruohan also arrived.
“Teacher Xiao, you’re here too!”
Upon entering, Chen Ruohan greeted Xiao Yinqiu cheerfully.
“You don’t have to call me Teacher Xiao when we’re not on a show set. I’m just a few years older than you, just calling me Qiu is fine.”
Xiao Yinqiu wasn’t surprised by Chen Ruohan’s appearance; after all, this Little White Flower was the pre-determined champion, and Xiao Yinqiu wouldn’t believe for a second that she had no connections with Yang Hao.
This was a classic case of nepotism!
Very common in the entertainment industry.
If it had been Xiao Yinqiu of the past, she would have sneered at such nepotism, having great disdain for it.
But her mindset had completely changed now.
Although Wu Dehai’s freezing of her career didn’t achieve his goal of imposing unspoken rules on her, it did teach Xiao Yinqiu a vivid lesson.
What’s most important in the entertainment industry?
Connections! Connections! Still connections!
And it’s not just the entertainment industry, in today’s social environment, having connections and background means you have a better chance of succeeding – an indisputable fact.
Especially obvious within the system.
If you have connections, you don’t need to suffer for long, and you can keep progressing.
But if you don’t have connections, you might just be a minor clerk for life, suffering for nothing!
This is the bare reality.
So, towards the nepotist Chen Ruohan, Xiao Yinqiu no longer held the prejudice she once did.
Her attitude was now similar to that of an old hand who had been through the mill; if you can’t change anything, you have to learn to accept it.
Who never was a spirited youth!
Life’s unfair.
So I will seek justice!
In our youth, we always thought we were the protagonists of the world!
Latter on, we increasingly discover that we’re just extras, not even supporting actors.
You are just an inconspicuous extra in the crowd.
“Qiu, your dress is really pretty, but it’s quite figure-hugging. It’s a style I can’t pull off.”
The Little White Flower was still as eloquent as ever, smiling as she complimented Xiao Yinqiu’s backless white long dress.
