Marry a female star at a bargain price

Chapter 103 102. Go see my wife (first order required)

After replying to Han Xixi’s WeChat.

Lin Xiao leaned close to Qin Zhenggang's ear and said, "Qin Zhen, I'll leave early..."

Before he could finish his words, Qin Zhenggang looked at him in surprise.

"Leave? Where are you going? We have to arrange a banquet tonight since we signed the contract today! You are the main force behind this project, you must be there. Then I can mention you more in front of the leaders..."

Qin Zhenggang almost said directly: If you were not here, who would know that this project was negotiated by you alone!

Of course the county knows about Lin Xiao, and no one can hide this.

But that’s how it is within the system, three parts doing and seven parts talking.

Sometimes, if you do ten things but don’t talk about it or show any effort, your boss will think you have only done one point, or even nothing at all.

Sometimes you do a little, but ask for instructions early and report late, and you hang around in front of your leader every day, so your leader thinks you have done ten things.

The water here is deeper than the Pacific Ocean.

Qin Zhenggang worked his way up from the grassroots level step by step. When he was young, he suffered a lot because he was hardworking but not good at speaking.

So now, even though he is in his forties, he is only a town mayor.

He didn't want Lin Xiao to repeat the detour he had taken - he really wanted this capable, resourceful and upright young man.

After hearing Qin Zhen's words, Lin Xiao of course understood what he meant instantly.

But he smiled and said, "Qin Zhen, I have to go... Tonight is New Year's Eve, and I have an appointment with my wife!"

When saying the word "wife", Lin Xiao was a little hesitant to open his mouth.

But facing the burning gaze of his boss, he would definitely not let me leave unless I gave a legitimate reason.

Anyway, I didn't lie.

as predicted.

Hearing him say this, Qin Zhenggang was stunned for a moment, then he burst into laughter: "If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten that today is the 31st. You young people talk about romance, but this dinner..."

Qin Zhenggang looked conflicted. He didn't want his number one hero to miss such a good opportunity to show himself.

Lin Xiao smiled and said, "Qin Zhen, I didn't negotiate this project by myself. You took the lead well, Brother Bo also made things convenient for me, and all the departments in the town provided me with materials... This is everyone's credit. You can just attend as a representative in the evening, and I don't have to go!"

These words made Qin Zhenggang a little dazed.

He couldn't help but look Lin Xiao up and down, his eyes becoming more and more admiring: He is not arrogant and does not take credit for his achievements. This kid... is really good!
Then he nodded: "Then go ahead, be careful!"

Lin Xiao thanked him and sneaked out of the side door of the meeting room.

It was only when I reached the door that I realized something was wrong.

"When Qin Zhen just said to be careful... he was talking about the road, right?!"

……

At 4:30, Lin Xiao successfully boarded the high-speed train.

At this time, Han Xixi was backstage at the Zhuxia City Center Stadium, laughing foolishly at his cell phone.

Last night, she came to Zhuxia accompanied by her agent and assistant.

I came here this morning for rehearsal and to discuss the details of the performance.

Although she is a newcomer, she will sing three songs tonight and is also one of the lucky draw guests, scheduled to appear during prime time.

Even a fool can see that she is the new star that Tomato TV is going to promote next.

Of course, the cooperation between entertainment companies and TV stations should be considered as mutual help and mutual benefit.

There is no clear contract for this cooperation.

But TV stations need to compete for ratings, and artists need a stable platform.

Both parties need a deep binding to exchange enthusiasm and consolidate resources.

Han Xixi is an artist of Tomato TV's "The Voice of China". She has been labeled as a "Tomato" since her debut. As Tomato TV sees her popularity gradually rising, it is also willing to allocate more resources to her.

After all, investing in artists that you have promoted yourself is less stressful, less labor-intensive, and safer than investing in some popular artists.

Where is Han Xixi?

Even though her agent Zhou Hui is optimistic about her potential, she is also aware that she is still a newcomer.

Therefore, Zhou Hui gladly accepted all the exposure opportunities provided by Fanqie. There was only a little friction between the two sides a few days ago because Han Xixi was going to sing a new song at the New Year's Eve party.

Of course, it was finally resolved satisfactorily.

Han Xixi and Tomato TV are now in the honeymoon period.

But despite this, newcomers are newcomers.

She came to rehearsal today and waited backstage for more than two hours before it was finally her turn to perform.

This wasn't because Tomato TV was deliberately trying to intimidate her. It was because the annual New Year's Eve concert was held on all the satellite TV stations, and Han Xixi, a small star, naturally had to coordinate with the schedules of other big names.

Her turn to appear is after the previous big star finishes rehearsal and before the next big star arrives.

Han Xixi didn't care about it.

Zhou Hui, however, was very dissatisfied - we are all big-name singers in prime time, why should I give in to you!
Because of this.

Before the rehearsal was over, she went to argue with the director team.

As an agent, she knows very well that fighting doesn’t necessarily mean winning something, what’s important is the action of “fighting”!
Because Zhou Hui was fighting outside.

Only at this moment did Han Xixi have the opportunity to send a message to Lin Xiao in her dressing room.

After getting a positive answer, she smiled happily with her lips pursed.

At this time, assistant Chen Jiajia came in with a lunch box.

"Sister, the food is here...what are you laughing at, so happy?" Chen Jiajia joked.

"No, nothing!" Han Xixi hid his phone.

Chen Jiajia looked as if she knew the inside story and smiled mischievously.

"You said it was nothing, but you have hearts in the corners of your eyes... Tell me, are you chatting with my brother-in-law?"

"Oh, Jiajia!"

Han Xixi was anxious, "What brother-in-law? Don't yell like that. What if Sister Hui hears it?!"

Chen Jiajia said hurriedly: "I know, I won't let anything slip, I'll keep my mouth shut!"

Han Xixi: “…”

Chen Jiajia looked at her rosy face and smiled slyly again.

He came over and said, "Sister, this New Year's Eve, brother-in-law... Brother Lin, Brother Lin, won't he come to accompany you?"

Han Xixi wanted to deny it.

But then I thought, since Jia Jia had already run into them several times, there was no need to hide it.

He nodded and said, "He's on the high-speed train...he'll be here tonight!"

When Chen Jiajia heard this, she immediately became excited.

"Just to see your performance?"

"Uh... that's right!"

"I'm telling you, there's definitely something fishy going on between you two... Sister, tell me the truth, are you guys really dating?"

Han Xixi was startled: "No, no!"

Chen Jiajia's face twisted: "You still say no, but why did he come all the way to watch your performance and spend New Year's Eve with you? This is obviously what lovers do!"

Han Xixi opened his mouth. He knew it was not true, but for a moment he didn't know how to refute it.

After a long pause, she said, "Sister Hui gave me some tickets. He happened to be having dinner at my house, so I asked him and he agreed...Isn't that a big deal?"

"Isn't that nothing?!"

Chen Jiajia looked stunned.

Knowing that her artist has never been in a relationship, she could only guide her slowly and asked her, "Sister, let me ask you, would you invite a random male classmate to spend New Year's Eve with you?"

Han Xixi was stunned for a moment, but in fact he had already realized that something was wrong.

"No..." She answered truthfully.

"If a random boy invites you to spend New Year's Eve with him, would you accept?"

"……Won't!"

"Snapped!"

Chen Jiajia clapped her hands suddenly, which scared Han Xixi.

"That's it! It's obvious that the man has feelings for the woman, but they just won't admit it! I think you two are just stubborn!"

Chen Jiajia made a closing statement.

Han Xixi listened and felt that this argument was not quite appropriate, but he couldn't tell what was wrong with it.

He frowned in thought and his face turned red.

"So we're spending New Year's Eve together... so we're lovers?"
