Capítulo 38: Spokesperson for the New Series
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At the restaurant Yun Shui, Su Qian had only taken a sip of wine since she sat down and didn't touch the food at all. Sikong Jin furrowed his brows at this sight.
"Qian Qian, are these dishes not to your liking?"
Su Qian swirled her wine glass as a hint of frustration appeared in her eyes. "No, I don't have much of an appetite today."
"Even if you don't have an appetite, you still have to eat something. Don't just drink, or else you'll get gastritis."
After he spoke, he looked around and picked a crab for her with some tools. He separated the meat and bones and placed them in front of Su Qian.
"Try your favorite crab."
Su Qian shook her head helplessly as she listened to Sikong Jin's endless jabbering.
"Why are you becoming more and more like my uncle? You're starting to nag."
"It's probably because you're marked by the company you keep," Sikong Jin chuckled.
Seeing that Su Qian had finished the plate of crab meat, he continued,
"Qian Qian, Aisha Group's domestic branch in China is preparing to launch a brand new series. They will focus on the younger series of products. The materials won't be as expensive, and they will focus more on the design."
She sat lazily on the chair and listened indifferently, "It's a good thing,"
With Sikong Jin's power, he could definitely push Aisha Group to the next level.
She poured herself another glass of wine and was about to drink it when she heard Sikong Jin say, "Qian Qian, come and be the spokesperson for the new series."
Cough cough cough!
She immediately choked and looked at him in disbelief, "Are you crazy?"
Her online reputation was not that bad, but it was not that good either. She definitely had the kind of physique that would cause bloodshed.
The incident of her killing a wild boar with her bare hands was still spreading on the internet, and Sikong Jin wanted her to be the spokesperson?
This new company had just been established, so she didn't want to be boycotted by netizens because of her.
"There are many other celebrities in the entertainment industry who are more suitable than me. Why do I have to be your spokesperson?"
Sikong Jin tried to calm his racing heart. He'd even saved the endorsement deal for Winston just for her, let alone a new series.
"You're the most suitable candidate for the style of this series.
"What's the style of the new series?"
Sikong Jin blinked.
"It's a secret! I'll personally announce it at the banquet!"
It was rare for Sikong Jin to beat around the bush. Su Qian smiled and shook her head. Sikong Jin's talent in design was unparalleled, and since he said she was the best candidate, then she must be the best.
"Then, if you lose money, don't blame me."
Sikong Jin knew that she had agreed, and the smile on his face widened, "Don't worry, I definitely won't blame you."

When Su Qian left the restaurant, she bumped into Gu Qi. When Gu Qi saw her, his eyes lit up.
It was as if he had suddenly found a lighthouse in the dark sea.
He hurriedly approached her, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously rose a few degrees. "What are you doing here?"
Su Qian looked at Gu Qi suspiciously. His enthusiasm toward her made her feel a little confused, but she still replied calmly, "This is a restaurant. So naturally, I'm here to eat."
"I haven't thanked you properly for saving me the last time. Can you give me a chance to invite you?"
She rejected him directly, "No thanks. I'm done."
Gu Qi did not give up, "Then can you give me your WeChat? I'll ask you out next time."
Gu Qi's partner, Xu Zhizhou, looked at Gu Qi in shock. When had he ever seen Gu Qi shamelessly ask for a girl's WeChat account? It had always been the girl who added him on her own initiative.
Gu Qi had a prominent status. Although he was not as good-looking as Lu Mingxiu, who was famous in the capital, he was still one of the best in the entertainment industry.
He had been a proud child since he was young and was pursued by girls. Therefore, he had a lot of fun. He would change girlfriends every few months, but he was very generous. Even when he broke up with them, the girls would never say a bad word about him in public.
Gu Qi was clearly a scumbag, but even if the girls knew that he was a scumbag, they still couldn't help but throw themselves into his arms.
He always felt that he was the only one who could end his true love.
Now that he saw Gu Qi's slightly ingratiating scene, he felt a little horrified and wondered if he was possessed by something.
Su Qian furrowed her brows slightly, as if she was still not used to Gu Qi's attitude.
"Young Master Gu, it's nothing. You don't have to thank me."
At this time, a deep voice came from not far away, seemingly with deep displeasure, "Qian Qian, is this person pestering you?"
Gu Qi looked at Sikong Jin, who was not far away. The gentleness that he rarely showed earlier disappeared and was replaced by his usual coldness.
"Who are you?"
"I'm Sikong Jin."
Sikong Jin was three centimeters taller than Gu Qi, so he was looking down from above. Even if he didn't have a condescending attitude, Gu Qi was still very displeased.
"You're Sikong Jin? The young master of the Sikong family?"
"Yes." After Sikong Jin finished speaking, he glanced at Su Qian. No matter how good-tempered he was, his dark eyes were still filled with anger, "This lady is my guest. If Young Master Gu is trying to pick a girl up, then you've found the wrong person. She's not someone you can afford to play with."
After speaking, he escorted Su Qian out and personally escorted her to the underground car park.
Just as she was about to get into the car, he suddenly called out to her, "Wait..."
"What?" she turned around to look at him.
"It's nothing," Sikong Jin smiled and shook his head, "Just be careful on your way."
There were some things that he was afraid that if he said them, he would never be able to stand by her side again.
Gu Qi looked at Sikong Jin and Su Qian's back as they left, and a trace of irrepressible irritation appeared on his face.
"You will accompany me to the Sikong family's banquet."
Xu Zhizhou was stunned for a moment.
"I thought you weren't interested?"
Gu Qi's lips curled into a cold smile. "Who says I'm not interested?" Now, he had changed his mind.
This was the first time Xu Zhizhou had seen Gu Qi like this, and he had goosebumps all over his body.
He couldn't help but ask curiously, "Who was that girl just now? Is she worthy of your attention?"
"She's the girl who saved me on the variety show."
"..."
Xu Zhizhou was at a loss for words. Gu Qi's grandmother and mother were both strong women who could take charge of things on their own.
Perhaps it was because they had been tortured at home since they were young that he grew up to like gentle and delicate little flowers. It was obvious now that his attitude towards Su Qian was different. So, it was just because he had not awakened before?
He still liked this type deep down?
He patted Gu Qi's shoulder and said in a meaningful tone, "I suggest you give up. After all, your performance in the variety show was really..."
Before he could finish, Gu Qi roared in exasperation, "F*ck off!"
