Hello Mr. King

Chapter 187: The Role of Senior

“Brother Wei, if “The King’s Plan” cannot be aired as usual, take another ad for me,” Yun XIangxiang understood He Wei’s situation.

She could have taken a very generous payday for endorsing a brand. But He Wei chose Deng Yang for her as he looked in the long term.

No matter how bright He Wei thought Deng Yang’s future was, every investment had its risks. Talent was not the only ingredient for success; timing and luck were also crucial.

It was fortunate that Huan Yu Century Entertainment was a big company. If it was a small company or a startup, they would never try to fry the big fish. Even so, the shareholders were still concerned about their actual profit per year, and not the potential earnings that longer-horizoned plans may yield.

He Wei must be taking a lot of pressure from his choice of having Yun Xiangxiang collaborate with Deng Yang. If he kept on accommodating Yun Xiangxiang, the pressure may become too much.

“Don’t think too much about it. If I add more work for you, then what about your studies?” He Wei admonished. “I might have not taken computers as my course, but I know the syllabus is just going to be heavier with each semester.”

He Wei was precisely correct. Next semester’s syllabus would be slightly heavier than the last.

“I can take it. And I can guarantee to stay in the top ten.” It might be tougher, but Yun Xiangxiang wouldn’t bluff either.

“I don’t want to have an actress who’s expelled,” He Wei retorted. “It’s just for these few years. Let’s see if I would still indulge you after you graduate.”

Yun Xiangxiang rose to prominence in China so quickly because she entered the top university as number one while being an actress.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t get to this point so quickly even if all her films were big hits.

An excellent student was Yun Xiangxiang’s brand. If this brand collapsed, it would be a huge setback for Yun Xiangxiang’s career.

The following negative news would be enough to drown her. Naturally, He Wei knew about what was important.

Besides, at Yun Xiangxiang’s age, studies held more importance. No matter how glamorous she might seem at that time, they were fleeting. If she wanted to go further, she had to improve constantly.

Reputation and wealth are only external things. Only the skills she learned would follow her for life.

“But the company...”

“You worry too much for your age,” He Wei interrupted. “I still have your senior as a card.”

“Old Man He finally remembered me?” On the other end of the phone, Xue Yu’s voice could be heard.

As their agent, He Wei would either be by her side or be by Xue Yu’s side. If not, he would be running around for their collaboration matters.

“Take care of your studies. Your senior will help you take off some heat. If he still can’t do it, I will ask him to only sleep four hours a day. The time aside from that would be used to make money.”

“Holy cow. Old Man He, how can you even say that? Doesn’t your conscience hurt?”

“Sorry, my conscience does not include you.”

Xue Yu, “...”

When Yun Xiangxiang tried her best to hold in her laughter as she overheard Xue Yu losing again in the verbal spar on the other end of the phone.

Surprisingly, Xue Yu snatched He Wei’s phone away and spoke to her, “Old Man He is right. You have your senior to help you. Study well.”

She felt a sudden surge of affection for them. Yun Xiangxiang replied touchingly, “Thank you, senior. I will study hard and not let you down.”

“En, the only good thing Old Man He did for me in this life was find me an adorable junior like you,” Xue Yu glared at He Wei.

“Senior, do you really think I am adorable?” Yun Xiangxiang suddenly had a cheeky idea.

“Of course, my junior is the cutest in the world,” Xue Yu talked to her as gently as a brother would to his sister.

“Then what if I say that when you are old and I have grown, I will help you out like you are helping me out now?” Yun Xiangxiang held back her chuckle. “Do you think I am cuter that way, senior?”

Xue Yu, “...”

You’re not even fully developed yet, and you’re already wanting your senior to get old. This is so irritating!

“Senior, you don’t think I am cute anymore?” Yun Xiangxiang used her acting skills when she spoke. She sounded careful and timid.

“Cute. My junior is cute no matter what. I am so happy knowing someone is going to take care of me when I am old,” Xue Yu replied rigidly.

What to do? She is my own junior. I’ll have to spoil her even if it costs an arm and a leg.

“Hahahaha...,” Yun Xiangxiang finally couldn’t hold her laugh in. “Okay okay, I’m not going to tease you any longer, senior. My senior is handsomely charming. Even if ten years or twenty years later, you will only be even more charismatic.”

“My junior has great judgment...”

The two of them praised each other for a while before Xue Yu had to go to work. Yun Xiangxiang ended the call.

The new car Lu Jin endorsed appeared on Weibo as soon as she hung up. It was the most expensive model in the Supreme line. All five of them were sold.

The China official account tagged Lu Jin and Yun Xiangxiang to share the good news. Lu Jin reposted it. Naturally, Yun Xiangxiang did too.

She had just finished reposting when Xue Yu reposted something else and tagged Yun Xiangxiang.

The repost was the data released by the official account of the Music Platform. Xue Yu’s digital album shot up to the top after barely four days of being on the Music Platform. The physical album’s sales numbers were also encouraging.

[I feel that both of them are trying to impress one lady]

[It’s not the first time God Xue goes head to head against Emperor Lu]

[What are you saying, the one above me? It’s obviously Emperor Lu picking a fight with God Xue]

[Bah, I am an ardent supporter of the Yunlu ship]

[There is no Yunlu ship, only the Yunxue ship]

[...]

Just like that, Xue Yu’s, Lu Jin’s, and Yun Xiangxiang’s fans who shipped different ships went into an argument again.

Yun Xiangxiang was half-amused, half-annoyed. She thought about “The King’s Plan,” where she collaborated with Lu Jin. If she would play Tiantian, she would have to collaborate with Xue Yu.

I’m afraid this won’t be the last argument. Suddenly, she wanted to know the faces of these adorable fans when she announced her marriage, and the groom was neither Xue Yu nor Lu Jin.

Yun Xiangxiang, whose mood was finally better, asked Song Qian to send Song Meng and Li Xiangling away, which was rare. She would go to practice her driving skills herself.

As her instructor in driving school, Yang Xin was on the verge of tears when she saw Yun Xiangxiang. Almost a month had passed, and she finally could see her student again.

However, the criteria in the practical exam didn’t pose any trouble for Yun Xiangxiang. With Yang Xin’s company, she drove the car around for a couple of times before leaving just like that. Now that Yang Xin wasn’t worried about Yun Xiangxiang, she told her the exam time.

The exam was next Wednesday. She would have to take leave by then. Yun Xiangxiang would not make it if she continued on after that with the theory exam. She needed to consolidate her theoretical knowledge. As time was not on her side recently, she would make an appointment after finishing the exam.

Next month’s fifth was the graduates’ film festival. The participating films must be the ones aired from April last year to March this year.

“University Dream” was aired last summer. It took part as the representative work for Yun Xiangxiang. No matter if she received an award from it or not, she would need to attend. After all, their campus organized it. She would make it for the theory exam too.
