Chapter 161: Chapter 161: Complaining and Seeking Pity

Fu Sichen suddenly received a message that took Jiang Mian by surprise.

When did this man learn to surf the web so fast?

Since that’s the case—

Just as Jiang Mian was about to send a message to Fu Sichen, playing the pity card to seek his help, a video call came in.

[Old Lin]

Jiang Mian answered with a sweet smile, the very picture of a dutiful daughter, "Old Lin, why did you decide to call your darling daughter today? Miss me too much?"

Her father, Lin Shengqiang, didn’t look very pleased in the video. He glanced to the side and lowered his voice, "Xuanxuan, what’s this I hear about you taking on that film?"

"It’s not like me to interfere in your affairs, but this seems a bit much."

Her father usually gave blind support to her career, rarely ever calling to check in on things.

So, he must have brought it up because, "Ms. Jiang is right there?"

Mom was in the know and seemed a bit angry.

"Dad, I’ve been wronged, I only found out about this myself, and it was the company’s decision, not mine. I turned down that director several times—if you don’t believe me, ask my agent."

Jiang Mian was saying this as she dragged Luo Ting into the frame. Luo Ting was a bit stunned, unsure what to say when faced with the man in the video, who bore a striking resemblance to Jiang Mian.

Lin Shengqiang was the first to speak with a friendly and approachable tone, "You must be Xuanxuan’s agent. She hasn’t caused you too much trouble, has she?"

Xuanxuan?

Luo Ting glanced at Jiang Mian, who said dismissively, "It’s my nickname."

"Uncle, not at all. She’s very capable. This matter is truly the company’s fault and has nothing to do with Jiang Mian. As for that rumor about her and the director, I was there when it happened, and it’s all been hyped up by yxh."

Jiang Mian took the phone and with an innocent look faced her father, "You see, Old Lin, why would I be involved in something like this?"

If she took on this movie,

it would become her last piece of work.

No, Linghua would be her "retirement work."

How could that be? She had just started her career; she was far from becoming a Movie Queen.

Ms. Jiang’s voice came through the video, "If you dare take it, I’ll have someone tie you up and drag you home, so you can peacefully be Mrs. Fu and the young miss of the Lin Family."

"Mom, you can rest assured. If I take the role, I’ll come home myself, accept whatever the organization arranges, and won’t utter a word of complaint."

"That’s more like it."

Lin Shengqiang mediated between his wife and daughter, laughing, "Oh, it’s all good. Xuanxuan, if you can’t handle it, dad will step in for you, or you could ask your brother. Xiao Chen could help too."

"If they say another word, I’ll just hire someone to clean up Weibo."

!!!!

Standing to the side, Yangyang was utterly dumbfounded.

Suddenly there was a young miss from the Lin Family.

Who exactly was this celebrity she had been following?

A mischievous glint appeared in Jiang Mian’s eyes, and her voice turned coquettish, "Thank you, dad, and thank you, Ms. Jiang!"

Jiang Yutian moved into view of the camera, "Come home for a meal with Xiao Chen when you have time."

After Jiang Mian hung up the video call, she looked up at Luo Ting, "What’s the matter? Does my dad look like a man-eater?"

"I wish he were my dad, too."

The daughter of a wealthy family—she wouldn’t even dare to dream of it.

"Xuanxuan? That’s quite a unique nickname."

Luo Ting really didn’t expect that her troublesome client had such a nickname, especially after hearing it from Jiang Mian’s father.

Jiang Mian was still furiously messaging in the family group chat, frantically explaining, fearing these three powerful figures would "banish" her in a fit of rage.
