Chapter 692: Chapter 692: Sky-high Price in Sky-high Price (2)_1

Half an hour later, Chi Yao hung up the phone.

As Ai Jiang gently massaged Chi Yao’s temples with just the right amount of pressure, she spoke in a soft whisper, "Still didn’t manage to convince Qin Shujian?"

Chi Yao kept his eyes shut and stayed silent, but his head slightly nodded in confirmation.

"Why haven’t you convinced Qin Shujian yet?"

Chi Yao didn’t respond. Ai Jiang continued, "How about offering Qin Shujian more incentives? Stars are all about making money, aren’t they? Why not offer her more? I’ve heard that women in their circles, as long as you pay, will do anything..."

"It’s useless," Chi Yao sighed as if in deep trouble. He reached for the cigarette case on the table, lit one, took a heavy puff as he explained, "I’ve already offered her the highest-ever pay in their circle, and yet she still shows no interest in cooperating with me. She insists on only working with Xia Wan’an, stating that no matter who approaches her, she won’t be the spokesperson for any of Han’s enterprises. Pony, the designer we painstakingly convinced from France, specifically wants his designs represented by the most popular female celebrity domestically. Otherwise, he absolutely won’t join the Han enterprise and help us fight for the currently vacant position of the top designer..."

As he spoke, Chi Yao appeared frustrated, crushing his cigarette in the ashtray, "That woman from the Xia family, when she was around, she was a stumbling block. Now that she’s dead and even took Xiao Mu with her, she’s still causing me trouble!"

While Chi Yao fumed with anger, Ai Jiang smiled soothingly, "Mr. Chi, Pony said he wanted the most popular female celebrity in the country, not specifically Qin Shujian..."

"What’s the difference? Who in the world doesn’t know that the most popular female celebrity in our country is Qin Shujian?"

"Yes, Mr. Chi, Qin Shujian is indeed the most popular female star currently, but it doesn’t mean she’ll always be..." Ai Jiang leaned closer to Chi Yao and whispered, "Mr. Chi, if Qin Shujian becomes involved in a scandal, losing her reputation...do you think Pony would still want her representing his work then?"

At her words, Chi Yao opened his eyes, "Do you have a way?"

"I may not have a way, but I know that no one in this world is invincible. Everyone has their flaws, do you think Qin Shujian would be an exception? As long as she’s not an exception, and we’re willing to investigate, we’ll definitely find something that can destroy her...once she’s destroyed, we can select any of the popular female celebrities behind her who are willing to cooperate with us and negotiate with Pony..."

As soon as Ai Jiang finished speaking, Chi Yao burst into hearty laughter.

Laughing, Chi Yao swivelled his chair, wrapped his arm around Ai Jiang’s waist, and pulled her into his embrace.

"My dear Xiaojiang, I have truly chosen the right person to spoil..." As he spoke, Chi Yao moved in to kiss Ai Jiang.

Ai Jiang feigned an attempt to dodge him, then let out a seductive sigh, intentionally letting her shoulder strap slip off to reveal a large area of bare skin below her collarbone.

Chi Yao’s eyes heated up at the sight, the grip around Ai Jiang’s waist became tighter...in no time, the study was filled with sounds that made one’s cheeks flush.

(Dear readers, as omniscient viewers, you know everything. So in your eyes, Han Jingnian is foolish. Xia Wan’an knew about it because Chi Mu had said so many things, overreacting and letting her know that someone provoked her. But Han Jingnian hadn’t seen Chi Mu, and on top of that, Xia Wan’an fooled the bodyguard sent by Han Jingnian, and as far as he knew, he didn’t manage to save Xia Wan’an in time and it was an accident. When reading, you need to consider different perspectives. Even if you are anxious, you can’t neglect reasoning. My explanation here is not out of anger.)
