Zhao Chong’s spirits were lifted as he watched Xia Ning finish the glass of wine in a gutsy manner. He said loudly,””Good, as expected of Chairman su, you’re so forthright!” He glanced at Jin Yan and said,”Jin Yan, don’t underestimate our President su. She’s a heroine.”
Jin Yan chuckled.”Just this one glass? she hasn’t recovered from her injury yet.”
“It doesn’t matter!” Xia Ning smiled at Jin Yan and said,”I’m almost done.”
Jin Yan wanted to say something, but Xia Ning had already shifted her gaze away. He frowned, as if something had changed. No, he was probably overthinking things.
As a guest, Lu Chuan took the initiative to propose a toast to Zhao Zhong after he finished drinking.
After one round, Zhao Chong also got to the main topic.
“Chairman su, please forgive Apple TV for not being able to handle things properly before.” Zhao Chong apologized first and then made a toast.
Xia Ning stopped him and said calmly,””I understand your intentions, President Zhao. That incident is already in the past, so I’ll just treat it as if it never happened.”
“President su is so broad-minded.” Zhao Chong sighed,”I knew that Chairman su wasn’t such a petty person.”
Lu Chuan lowered his head and ate his food, pretending not to understand their small talk.
“President Zhao, why did you call me here today? we’re both straightforward people, and we’re already so familiar with each other. There’s nothing to hide.” Xia Ning put down her chopsticks and looked at Zhao Chong.
“That’s right, President Zhao,” Jin Yan chimed in.”There’s no need to toast. Since you’ve asked me to e, let’s just talk about what’s on our minds.”
Zhao Chong nodded and put down his glass. He looked at Jin Yan and said,””Jinyan, I’m older than you. We’ve known each other for so long. From the time you debuted until now, although I didn’t push you to fame, I’ve helped you a lot. It’s not a loss for you to call me brother, right? brother, I want to tell you the truth today. If you terminate the contract with us, we can’t continue with the reality show. So, I’m here today to ask you to consider it again.”
Xia Ning took a sip of tea and glanced at Jin Yan, who was sitting beside her, without saying a word.
Jin Yan lowered his head and remained silent for a while.””Director Zhao, I really can’t participate in this show. You know that I still have to film a movie and prepare for my new album in the second half of the year. I don’t have that much time.”
“It’s just a reality show. Why do you need so much time? it’s not like you’re going there every day.” Zhao Chong hurriedly said.
Jin Yan looked at Zhao Chong and sighed.”Director Zhao, I’ll pay you for the penalty. I really can’t participate in this show.”
Upon hearing this, Zhao Chong became anxious.”Jin Yan, this is not a joke. We’ve already announced to the public that you’re going to participate, but in the end, you didn ‘t. How are we supposed to face your fans who like you? besides, this isn’t a matter of money. The station has already made it clear that if you don’t participate, this program will be canceled. By then, I won’t have the face to continue working at the station.”
Jin Yan shifted his gaze and looked at the food on the table without saying a word.
The atmosphere in the private room was a little tense. Zhao Chong looked at Jin Yan and said unhappily,””Do you really have to give up the good reputation you’ve built up for so long just for Liman? Do you want people to say that you’re throwing a tantrum and that you have a bad temper?”
Jin Yan lowered his head and still did not answer.
Seeing this, Zhao Chong turned to Xia Ning, who was silent beside him.”Chairman su, please help to persuade Jin Yan!”
