The sweetest in the entertainment industry
Chapter 624 Preparations
The highly anticipated Paris Autumn/Winter Fashion Week is just around the corner, and since both of them have endorsements, they'll naturally be going together.
Not only must they go, but they must also dress smartly and make a high-profile appearance.
As their departure time drew closer, they realized that with professionals taking care of their styling, clothes, and jewelry, and assistants handling all the other details, they didn't have to worry about anything.
On the contrary, the most dangerous thing is that Miss Lu, who has been spoiled by them for months without any limits, has never left their side since birth, and even has to hold her father's earlobe with one hand and her mother's earlobe with the other while sleeping, has severe separation anxiety to the point of explosion!
In order to go to work smoothly, the couple made a tough decision and gritted their teeth to do some adaptation training for their little princess. However, they could only try to sneak out for two hours before they had to give up the attempt.
There's no way around it, the young lady has a huge voice and is a very opinionated and stubborn person.
Even though the couple called the child's grandmother over beforehand, the little guy started crying the moment his parents left his sight. He didn't stop crying in between, refusing to drink milk or sleep. He just lay on his grandmother's shoulder and howled heartbreakingly. In the end, he only stopped crying when the couple softened and came back.
That's fine.
The baby, only a few months old, already knows which gate his parents use when they come home and insists on waiting there.
As soon as her grandma picked her up and took her away, she pointed her chubby finger in that direction and cried.
During this time, the family nanny wanted to bring her over, but she was unwilling and clung to her grandmother no matter what.
She probably has a hierarchy of intimacy in her mind. When her parents aren't home, her grandmother is practically her lifeline; she absolutely cannot lose her.
Poor Zhang Ruolan, despite her advanced age, stood there holding her for over an hour, because she would wail uncontrollably as soon as she sat down.
No matter how much Grandma loves the child, her body can't take it anymore, so she went to see a massage therapist that very night.
The young couple were torn between their inner thoughts and discussed it over and over again all night. Finally, they gritted their teeth and decided to take their daughter abroad with them!
"While she's still young, she can take a couple of naps and it'll all be over, and she won't suffer on the way."
“Perfect timing. It’s inconvenient to take her out in the country, so let’s go abroad and stay for a few more days.”
"Our baby is four months old. We finally get to go out, but most of the time he just sits in the yard sunbathing and watching squirrels. Our Tuantuan is so pitiful."
The two of them talked back and forth, and soon made up their minds.
Just like Gu Lanxi said, you can't just jump off the 18th floor and end it all just because everyone has to die sooner or later.
Tuantuan was born into her womb and enjoyed excellent material conditions and family love, but she was also inevitably affected by the outside world. It can be said that she will never be able to keep a low profile in this life.
After all, there's so much cutting-edge technology these days. Putting aside everything else, if you just fly a drone, no matter where you hide, there's a high chance you'll be filmed.
Tuantuan is still young and has a limited range of activities. When she grows up a bit, she will have to go to school and socialize. She can't stay like a little mouse in the gutter, hiding all day long.
Bring enough bodyguards, go out confidently, and get used to it sooner rather than later.
Since the child is a minor, if they send out the photos directly, the two of them can sue the person to death. At most, those people will use the photos to ask the two of them for money.
If something can be solved with money, it's not a problem.
The two discussed it and took action the next day.
The company's own staff are quiet and reliable, and they won't say anything after receiving the message. The brand was lucky that they weren't overwhelmed by this unexpected windfall!
The couple, with their child, would fly directly to Paris on their old family home's large private jet, with their own security. Since Tuantuan was still young, there was no need for extra expenses on accommodation, yet the topic of their trip was predictably high!
When the representatives from several brands met, they were practically grinning from ear to ear!
Even if it's the first time they meet the child, and they need to prepare a gift for her, no one objects.
Even Aeterna, which signed both of them, launched a children's line as early as when Gu Lanxi was pregnant, marketing their couple's outfits while also heavily promoting their family outfits.
The effect was amazing!
Anyone from a well-off family with children can resist a high-end, fashionable home decor with a strong sense of design.
If we could sign the young lady as well, and the three of us could appear in the new season's featured items, I can't even imagine it!
However, the couple rejected the suggestion outright.
Tuantuan is still young and doesn't have the ability to distinguish right from wrong yet. Even if she wants to become a child star and accept endorsements, it depends on whether she'll be willing to do so when she grows up.
They didn't take the child out to make money off her because she was too young to understand anything.
If it weren't for the fact that the child is so young and they couldn't bear to leave, and they felt sorry for the child who rarely goes out, they would never have brought Tuantuan along this time.
Because they had to take care of Tuantuan, not only did their luggage need to be reorganized, but their outfits also needed to be modified accordingly.
For example, children are at an age where they are very curious and act without thinking, so earrings or necklaces with strong designs are not suitable for them.
Otherwise, with Tuantuan's fighting power, she could have torn it off in one go.
That day, the two checked the new plan and redid the styling. Lu Nanting hadn't been working for a long time and needed to shoot a vlog, so he couldn't go home for a while. Gu Lanxi took a sand hammer and teased Tuantuan to turn over.
Because of his active nature and good diet, Tuantuan has grown very strong and healthy. He started rolling over quite early and has been very enthusiastic about it lately.
While they were joking around, they received a message from Sister Mei, who was actually Su Yichen's manager, Brother Chao, who wanted to have a chat with her.
To prevent privacy breaches, she generally doesn't answer calls from unknown numbers or add strangers as friends on WeChat. To have a smooth conversation with her, you need to contact one of her influential staff members first.
People in the entertainment industry usually try every means to get in touch with Anita Mui.
Gu Lanxi sent an OK message, and soon someone sent a friend request through the business card shared by a friend. She accepted, and the other party quickly sent a message.
Gu Lanxi called the nanny over to keep Tuantuan company, waiting with a half-smile. Only after the other woman finished her long-winded explanation did she reply indifferently:
Don't worry about it, it's nothing serious.
Tuantuan didn't know what she was doing. When she saw that she was only a few steps away from her, she stared at her with her big, dark eyes for a while. Instead of making a fuss, she smiled at her aunt very considerately and drooled as she tried to grab the small abacus in her aunt's hand.
Chao came to apologize to her. He made it very clear that he and Su Yichen had terminated their contract, and he was unaware that Su Yichen had deliberately brought up Lu Nanting to change the subject.
Although Su Yichen's career has collapsed, he has a solid foundation. He terminated his contract without hesitation, even giving up his studio shares. He then led a few young people to start their own business, openly vying for Su Yichen's resources. Clearly, those words were not false.
Gu Lanxi replied slowly, "You flatter me. I hope we can cooperate more in the future." The other party immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said he would treat the couple to dinner.
This time, Gu Lanxi replied with a voice message with a smile:
"I appreciate your kind offer, but I've been too busy lately and haven't been able to find the time."
Su Yichen was almost driven to the brink of despair by her. She had repeatedly sent him messages of a do-or-die situation. Now, his agent called to apologize to her. She accepted the apology and acknowledged his attitude, but their relationship was still far from being able to have a meal together. Gu Lanxi naturally refused.
Regardless of whether the two of them need a meal or not, if this is just a little trick by the other party, and they are photographed going to the appointment at the same time, it might save the scumbag's life.
After all, no one knows better than Gu Lanxi how wronged Su Yichen has become.
Firstly, he genuinely hadn't broken the law; secondly, he wasn't stingy, and he and those girls mutually benefited from each other's needs, so he really wasn't a particularly wicked person.
If no one messes with him, even if he falls on hard times, as long as he's willing to humble himself, he won't be unable to find work in this industry.
After finishing filming, Lu Nanting noticed that Tuantuan had called her several times, but she couldn't concentrate, so she quickly came over and asked:
"Is there a problem?"
This is the essence of marital understanding.
If it were anyone else, seeing their child looking longingly at them while their partner is glued to their phone, they would suspect that their partner is only interested in playing and not watching the child.
Gu Lanxi remained expressionless: "It's nothing. Sister Mei just contacted me and said that things at the studio are getting busier and busier, and she's a bit overwhelmed. She asked if I wanted to sign another agent to manage Chen Lei."
Chen Lei's agent died at sea. Afterwards, in order to avoid trouble, she stubbornly persisted in getting Gu Lanxi to sign her.
In the past year or two, Sister Mei not only had to take care of her, but also Chen Lei. At that time, Chen Lei was in dire straits and everyone was pushing her down. When she came over, she was all alone. She was really exhausted.
Mei Jie actually mentioned this to her before the New Year, but because it was a small matter, she didn't tell Lu Nanting.
I was just thinking about Brother Chao when I said that...
When an artist faces a crisis, they remain steadfast in their support; when they discover that the artist has been maliciously exploited by powerful figures, they are able to disregard their past relationship and calmly sever ties.
They're practically chosen by heaven for working class.
Being with someone as profit-driven as Chen Lei is simply a match made in heaven!
Gu Lanxi had an idea and was about to tell Sister Mei when Lu Nanting couldn't help but frown: "Isn't she planning to get married this year and have a baby as soon as possible? It's a bit of a waste to hire an agent specifically for her."
"That's perfect for mentoring newcomers!"
Since signing Chen Lei, I've been earning a lot more every year. I have to say, this deal was really worth it!
She has many resources, but only has Chen Lei as her artist, which is very uneconomical.
It would be great to sign more people for her to make money!
Lu Nanting refused without hesitation: "In recent years, there have been too many celebrities whose careers have collapsed. You can know a person's face but not their heart. You can invest a lot of resources, and in the end, they can be ruined by a single scandal. We might even get into trouble."
"I'll think about it some more!"
For a top-notch agent like Chao Ge, if there aren't enough outstanding artists, the other party wouldn't come for the salary.
After all, an agent's income is often linked to the artist's income, as they receive a share.
Lu Nanting picked up the child and glanced at her sideways: "Do you have a favorite newcomer?"
Gu Lanxi's alarm bells rang, and she hurriedly waved her hands: "No! Where would I see any newcomers! I just want to earn more money, it was just... just a slight stirring of my capitalist soul..."
She always cared a lot about her image in front of Lu Nanting, and she would never let him know anything particularly ruthless.
For example, if Lu Nanting hadn't forced her into marriage, even though they had known each other for many years, she wouldn't have told Lu Nanting about how she dealt with her scumbag father when she was a child.
For example, when it comes to dealing with people, whether it's Su Yichen now or Ma Hongfei back then, she won't bring it up unless he mentions it.
The fact that he can say such things now clearly shows his intention to coax people.
"Are you all packed? Time to go home."
Lu Nanting stopped rambling, and Gu Lanxi pretended nothing was wrong, calling to her staff to leave. (End of Chapter)
