Kang Jinxian pursed her lips and respectfully lowered her head, "I made an appointnt with Young Master He. It’s been such a long ti, I was afraid he’d have forgotten ."
This reason...
Yun Shu’s lips curled slightly, "Go ahead."
Kang Jinxian silently lowered her head and left the living room.
Yun Shu watched Kang Jinxian’s retreating figure, sipping her tea lightly. A sense of indescribable clarity washed over her entire being, as if her long-drifting heart had finally found its harbor of rest.
"The taste seems to be getting better and better."
——
From twenty to ten, Kang Jinxian received thunderous applause for her classic Cantonese love song "Thoughts in the Wind and Rain," leaving even the notoriously critical and venom-tongued Ming Han without anything to say.
Lin Li decisively decided on the spot to take her as her last disciple. Fan Yu praised her for her powerful and emotive singing voice, calling her a natural-born singer with limitless potential. Gu Yue declared her intent to sign her on the spot, ready to go all out in promoting her.
Compared to natural-born stars like Mai Zheng, dark horses like Kang Jinxian seed more likely to bring surprises to people.
After the recording, Lin Li sought her out privately, insisting she wasn’t just talking—she truly wanted to take her as a student. Kang Jinxian’s humility further endeared her to Lin Li, who grew even fonder of her.
And so, Kang Jinxian beca the last disciple of Lin Li, who was a very easy-going and generous person. Whoever she took a liking to, she’d treat wholeheartedly well, even telling Kang Jinxian her ho address and inviting her to visit anyti.
When Kang Jinxian was about to leave, the show’s director, Yuan Pan, found her. The first episode of the program was scheduled for broadcast this Saturday evening at 8:50. Before airing, Jiang Jinxian was to cooperate with the promotion, as having a strong online presence nowadays could be earth-shattering for a star’s popularity. In short, Kang Jinxian was to register on Weibo and start building a following, while the production team and the TV station would reinforce the promotion.
At that mont, Gu Cheng walked over, and upon seeing him, Yuan Pan imdiately greeted him with a smile, "Mr. Gu, what brings you here?"
The two shook hands, and Gu Cheng said with a smile, "Our Kang Le has been troubling you."
Yuan Pan was taken aback, glancing at Kang Jinxian quietly standing to the side, and shook his head with a chuckle, "So she’s your talent. You’ve nabbed a great prospect before anyone else could." His tone couldn’t hide a tinge of envy.
"We’ll need to trouble you to look out for her in the future," Gu Cheng said, bringing the conversation to a point where Yuan Pan naturally understood the implication. It was a win-win situation; why not accept this favor from Gu Cheng?
Leaving the TV station and settling into the car, Gu Cheng handed her a contract, "From today, you are officially signed with Xinghuang. If you find the contract agreeable, go ahead and sign it."
From his observations, Gu Cheng was quite satisfied with Kang Jinxian. Although she wasn’t a top-tier beauty, she certainly was an elegant one. More importantly, she relied not on her looks but her singing ability, profound vocal skill, and a voice like heaven. Coupled with her fresh appearance, she would undoubtedly beco a sensation once launched.
Xinghuang was a comprehensive entertainnt company under Shenghua, covering movies, TV dramas, artist managent, records, entertainnt marketing, and other fields, known as a star-making factory in the entertainnt industry.
If Xinghuang truly valued Kang Jinxian and backed her fully, as long as she wasn’t utterly untrainable, her future would be boundless.
Kang Jinxian didn’t even look at the contract. She took the pen and signed her full na on the last page.
Gu Cheng laughed, "Good, decisive."
He handed her a mobile phone, "This is provided by the company. I’ve already put my number in it. If you have any issues, use this phone to contact . I’ve registered a Weibo account for you under your na. From now on, you need to be careful with every post you make, so as not to be criticized. Once you beco famous, these could all beco ammunition for others to attack you. Understand?"
Kang Jinxian nodded, "Understood."
Gu Cheng was very pleased with Kang Jinxian’s obedience.
Kang Jinxian opened Weibo. The account na was Kang Le, which had already been verified. The bio stated that she was an artist signed under Xinghuang.
Besides an automatically generated tweet from registering, there was nothing else.
The following list already included many people: Gu Cheng, the official Xinghuang account, and several currently popular stars under Xinghuang—Kang Jinxian knew these people were all promoted by Gu Cheng. It seed he had high hopes for her.
After parting ways with Gu Cheng, Kang Jinxian took a taxi to a high-end restaurant.
Before entering, Kang Jinxian glanced at herself in the glass and smiled faintly, then strolled in with an air of casual confidence.
"Hello, welco," greeted the staff as she entered.
