The True Heiress And The Fake Heiress Ended Up Together - Chapter 17
“Let me formally introduce myself. My name is Ye Zhou.”
“I… just call me Auntie Zhang.”
Ye Zhou and Auntie Zhang shook hands warmly. According to Ye Zhou, he is the producer of the show and will also serve as the chief director. That day, when he went to the shopping mall, he accidentally discovered Qin Mianmian eating cake and was immediately captivated by her cuteness.
Then, at the urging of his companions, he stepped forward and handed over his business card. He just didn’t expect that the adults of both children were not present.
He could only give the business card to Jian Ying’an, who appeared mature and stable. To his surprise, she was the one who ultimately confirmed their participation.
Ye Zhou felt a little regretful. Qin Mianmian was genuinely adorable, like a delicate little doll, possessing the innocence fitting for her age.
In comparison… Jian Ying’an was truly too mature.
However, wasn’t this a kind of contrast! Ye Zhou was still very satisfied with the decision.
After successfully securing the spot, the discussion moved to the main business. Jian Ying’an frantically signaled Auntie Zhang with her eyes.
Hurry up, ask how much the remuneration is!
Why did she want to join this show? Wasn’t it because she expected the ratings to skyrocket and the production team to be generous with money?
She thought of the magnates in her previous life who earned tens of thousands a minute, and here she was, reborn and needing to act cute to support her family.
A story of bitter tears, a question to the heavens…
Auntie Zhang felt extremely guilty. She was stunned after the handshake. It was only after Jian Ying’an’s hint that she remembered the purpose of their visit: “Then how is the remuneration calculated?”
Ye Zhou frowned, thinking this mother was too focused on profit—
He still replied kindly: “The show is filmed one episode and broadcast one episode. The subsequent pay is calculated based on ratings. The pay for the first episode is this number.”
Ye Zhou held up a number.
Ten.
It certainly wasn’t ten yuan.
Ten thousand! Auntie Zhang’s eyes widened. She didn’t expect the sum to be so large. No wonder Jian Ying’an wanted to participate! She swallowed, regretting that she hadn’t praised her well enough earlier. If she had another chance, she could praise her even more!
That was one hundred thousand!
Auntie Zhang’s recent thoughts were influenced by Jian Ying’an, and she subconsciously thought about how much she could expand the company with one hundred thousand.
With trembling hands she couldn’t control, Auntie Zhang asked Jian Ying’an tremulously, “Are you sure you want to participate?”
Jian Ying’an pondered for a moment, then smiled: “Uncle, if my little friend from that day came, how much remuneration could she get?”
Ye Zhou considered it seriously.
In fact, the budget for each little guest was the same, which was fair. But if it were that little girl… he felt he could splurge. Forget doubling the pay, as long as she could come, three hundred thousand, five hundred thousand, anything was possible!
Ye Zhou was persistent: “Can you help me ask her parents? The remuneration definitely won’t be low.”
Jian Ying’an had already seen the answer from his expression.
She couldn’t help but feel proud of Qin Mianmian in her heart. This is making money by being cute. Mianmian is so impressive~
Regarding Ye Zhou’s insistence, she laughed.
“Her parents won’t agree.”
Forget one hundred thousand, even one million, the Qin family couldn’t possibly be tempted.
The Qin family worked hard to maintain Qin Mianmian’s image, making her the elegant and adorable eldest daughter of the Qin family. How could they let her participate in this kind of game?
Ye Zhou’s expression was disappointed.
He looked at the little girl in front of him and suddenly said, “Actually, it would be better for both of you to participate together.”
Jian Ying’an looked up at him.
Ye Zhou continued.
“Your relationship is very good, inseparable. Being together is more enjoyable to watch, and the audience will like it.”
Their personalities are also complementary.
One is innocent and cute, the other is mature and stable. The two six-year-old girls look like they have a closer relationship than twins.
Adults love to watch this kind of emotional bond.
Just like having a childhood engagement… Ye Zhou chuckled. Since the other little girl’s parents disagreed, he couldn’t say more, he could only feel a sense of pity.
Little did he know how profoundly shaken Jian Ying’an’s heart was by Ye Zhou’s words.
Jian Ying’an hadn’t recovered when she left.
She stared blankly at her reflection in the shop window. She and Qin Mianmian, having a very good relationship?
Jian Ying’an pursed her lips, feeling a surge of joy. Yes, it was very good.
Inseparable, the two best people.
Auntie Zhang was hailing a taxi up ahead. Jian Ying’an stood behind, feeling a little bored, not at all in a hurry to return to the Qin family home.
She wondered what Mianmian was doing. She should be practicing the piano right now.
A very strict new piano teacher had arrived, and Qin Mianmian had complained to her about it several times in private.
She was also planning to pluck up the courage to talk to Madam Qin about the matter—commonly known as ‘telling on someone.’
During this time, Qin Mianmian saw too many different things in Jian Ying’an. She gradually learned that, Oh, I can do it this way.
Children’s learning ability is very strong, and Jian Ying’an felt affirmed.
Yes, it should be like this. Madam Qin shouldn’t be allowed to keep up her facade; she should be embarrassed!
Jian Ying’an was excitedly thinking when she saw someone she didn’t really want to see.
Shen Jin Yu.
In school, the two looked at each other with distaste. Shen Jin Yu felt Jian Ying’an stole Mianmian, and Jian Ying’an felt this person was a stumbling block, only obstructing her and Mianmian.
The two became rivals.
But no matter whether it was grades or interpersonal relationships, Shen Jin Yu found himself inferior to Jian Ying’an, so he began to attack from other areas.
In Jian Ying’an’s view, it was all utterly childish—
She couldn’t expect a first-grader to have any good schemes, and this person was unlikely to come up with any, so she couldn’t be bothered to look at him.
She avoided him in school when possible, and if she couldn’t, she wouldn’t admit defeat.
Running into him on the street was really annoying.
This person even walked over actively, looking like he had caught Jian Ying’an with a handle. Before he walked up, Jian Ying’an spoke first: “Do you know what word can be used to describe you right now?”
Shen Jin Yu stopped, hesitatingly following up: “What word?”
Jian Ying’an lifted her chin: “Small man’s ambition achieved.” meaning a mediocre person getting what they want, often implies arrogance or pettiness.
This was not within the scope of a first-grader’s vocabulary.
Shen Jin Yu thought for a long time and only understood the word ‘small man,’ which wasn’t referring to him being a child but implying something mean! He immediately retorted: “Then do you know what word can be used to describe you right now!”
Jian Ying’an: “Not a word, but a sentence.”
She walked past Shen Jin Yu, her eyes provocative.
“Winning the beauty’s heart.”
She just had a good relationship with Mianmian, which made him furious! Jian Ying’an, secretly pleased with herself for sparring with a primary school student, didn’t feel degraded at all.
Auntie Zhang saw her so happy: “Didn’t that person come over to say hello to you?”
Jian Ying’an looked back at Shen Jin Yu: “Of course not.”
He was here to snatch someone away.
He probably thought Mianmian was nearby, so he wanted to show off, but he didn’t expect Jian Ying’an to be alone today.
Jian Ying’an glanced at Auntie Zhang.
Hmm, given Shen Jin Yu’s personality, he wouldn’t even notice Auntie Zhang.
The two got into a taxi and left.
Shen Jin Yu was still standing on the street in powerless rage. Why was that person so bad? Why did Mianmian like her!
The bodyguard who came out with Shen Jin Yu approached: “Young Master, it’s time to go back.”
Shen Jin Yu: “I’m not going back! Go find out what she’s doing!”
She left with a middle-aged woman, without Qin Mianmian. Was she planning to do something bad again? Shen Jin Yu wondered to himself.
What exactly did “Winning the beauty’s heart” mean?
He’d go back and ask his dad.
