“Ah… I… um… sorry…”
At this moment, Zhang Tiantian was extremely embarrassed, wishing she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
Being caught taking candid photos of someone, there was nothing more socially mortifying than this.
Grandpa Zhang could tell from his granddaughter’s expression that she must have taken a fancy to him.
He didn’t follow entertainment news, so he didn’t know about Jiang Xu’s situation.
Seeing his granddaughter smitten, he took the initiative to say to Jiang Xu, “My granddaughter is now studying at the Capital City Music College, a freshman this year.
You’re all young people, you could exchange contact information, get to know each other, maybe there will be opportunities for collaboration in the future.” “Sure,” Jiang Xu nodded, straightforwardly asking Zhang Tiantian for her OO number.
This girl, Jiang Xu had seen her many times on TV in his previous life.
She was called the sweetheart darling by netizens.
She sang many sweet songs, and her personal commercial value was around five hundred million a year.
This was a gem yet to be explored, or rather, not yet noticed by too many people.
Now that he had encountered her, it was only natural to get acquainted. Perhaps he could even coax Zhang Tiantian into joining his record company.
At the moment, Jiang Xu’s record company didn’t have anyone who could really carry the torch.
The original ones had all been lured away by Zhang Xiaofeng with high offers. Zhang Tiantian’s face reddened alarmingly as she stuttered out her QQ.number. She inwardly reproached herself.
There she was, a veritable goddess in her school, sought after by countless boys.
She was already used to big events.
So why did she feel so flustered in front of Jiang Xu?
“Eh… this song…” When Grandpa Zhang heard “When Farewell Blooms,” his expression changed.
Seeing Grandpa Zhang’s expression, Jiang Xu knew he had thought of something.
In his previous life, this song was known as the song of the province.
‘When farewell blooms, sprouting new growing branches’…
The lyric perfectly matched the current situation of the province.
Grandpa Zhang had a good eye and instantly understood the deeper meaning of the lyrics of the song.
Yang Ping hadn’t paid special attention before.
Now, under Grandpa Zhang’s guidance, he also realized it.
His eyes shone as he looked at Jiang Xu: “Sing this song with us when the time comes!
I will even apply to the higher-ups to make both these songs ‘red songs’!”
Jiang Xu was moved!
If he could indeed apply successfully, then Jiang Xu would have earned an extra talisman for himself.
As long as he didn’t do anything foolish, just these few songs could keep him well-off for life.
Coming to dinner tonight was not in vain; it was quite a fruitful visit.
Grandpa Zhang was also very pleased, breaking his usual rule by having a drink.
Before leaving, he reminded Zhang Tiantian to interact more with Jiang Xu and learn from him.
Zhang Tiantian shyly agreed.
Even though she knew Jiang Xu already had a girlfriend, deep down in her heart, she still harbored some unrealistic fantasies.
In the following few days, Jiang Xu was constantly rehearsing.
To ensure nothing went wrong, he even hired a teacher to help train his singing skills.
Zhang Tiantian, having added him as a friend, often sent messages to Jiang Xu. The young girl was quite reserved.
However, Jiang Xu still sensed the slowly budding emotions in her messages.
So, Jiang Xu often mentioned An Nuonuo during their chats.
He also sent her many photos of him with An Nuonuo, under the guise of asking for her critique, hinting that they weren’t possible.
Zhang Tiantian was no fool; after a few hints, she understood what Jiang Xu meant.
Although heartbroken, she didn’t pursue it further.
She thought Jiang Xu was truly the best man in the world.
An Nuonuo being able to have such a boyfriend was indeed her greatest honor.
After spending some time together, Zhang Tiantian had found her place.
It was the eighth day of the first lunar month.
Most people had also started working again.
Zhou Qingyue also learned that Jiang Xu would be performing at the Lantern Festival gala.
She called to ask if she could perform as well.
Jiang Xu said, “What the hell are you thinking?”
Although Zhou Qingyue was quite popular now, she didn’t have the qualifications or the seniority to perform on that stage.
Jiang Xu told her not to think about these frivolous things and focus on her filming.
After the Lantern Festival, Nuomi Website was going to go public.
“Alright, that’s enough rehearsal for today.”
Yang Ping shouted, and all the rehearsing staff heaved a sigh of relief.
Then Yang Ping walked over to Jiang Xu, smiling, and said, “I have some good news for you: ‘The Red Opera Singer’ and ‘When Farewell Blooms’ have both been approved.”
Jiang Xu was overjoyed, “Thanks, Director Yang, for taking the trouble.” “Hahaha, not at all, it’s my honor too,” Yang Ping was also in high spirits. “However,” Jiang Xu said, “I hope Director Yang can help me keep this news under wraps for now, don’t announce it yet.”
Although Yang Ping didn’t quite understand why Jiang Xu didn’t want to announce such good news right away,
he didn’t ask any further and nodded in agreement.
It was already past nine o’clock in the evening.
Jiang Xu left the Central Television building.
Just as he got into the car, An Nuonuo called him.
The two hadn’t seen each other for a week now.
Every day, they would alleviate their yearning through texting and phone calls.
Originally, Jiang Xu wanted her to come over, but An Nuonuo said no.
Since it was the New Year, and Jiang Xu wasn’t home to accompany his parents, she had to take on this responsibility in his stead.
Moreover, she needed to spend a few days with her own parents as well.
She would be able to come over on the twelfth day of the first lunar month.
After arriving at the residence he bought in the Capital city, Jiang Xu took a shower and then opened his laptop.
Liu Dahai had sent him an email.
It was about the progress of the investigation into the incident involving An Nuonuo.
The case was extremely tricky.
The person behind it was very cautious, hardly leaving any traces.
Liu Dahai had found some clues.
But the person behind it was very sharp and cut off the clue before Liu Dahai could investigate further.
The Hundred Flowers Club and others didn’t make much progress in their investigations either.
But Jiang Xu absolutely would not let the matter rest.
No matter how much time and effort it took, he was determined to find the culprit.
And he absolutely wouldn’t let them off with their life.
After dealing with some tasks at hand, Jiang Xu continued writing his novel.
The word count of his current book was about to break one million.
The planned total word count was over five million.
Though he had rehearsed all day, Jiang Xu still felt full of energy at night.
It was only when he was with An Nuonuo
that Jiang Xu felt as if no matter how much energy he had, or how strong his physical ability was, it was never enough.
Sometimes, Jiang Xu considered investing in the pharmaceutical field,
to develop medicines that could make people younger.
In this area, the foreign countries were far ahead.
Many rich people and celebrities in China were their customers.
