Chapter 20: Chapter 20: Little Advertising Queen

Ran Jing tentatively asked, "Now that your company has grown, isn’t it time to start thinking about family, and having a child?"

"Your grandfather just turned eighty, and he isn’t as healthy as before. I’m not forcing you, just take some time to think about it."

"So," Shen Dang twirled his fingers on his eyelashes, his tone ambiguous, "have you also mentioned this to Qiao Xi?"

"But having a child is not a decision you can make alone."

Ran Jing grew worried, "You’ve seen it, Xixi is so beautiful and involved in the entertainment industry. If you don’t take hold, others will."

"Okay, I got it," Shen Dang chuckled lightly, a playful note in his voice.

"Mom believes in your charm, you’ll definitely win Xixi over. Fly with ease, mom is always with you."

Shen Dang: "..."

Bei Bei had already checked in at the airport and was waiting for Qiao Xi. Once she arrived, they both passed through security to the VIP lounge to wait.

Bei Bei poured her a cup of rose tea, "Sister Xi, it’s still an hour until boarding. You should rest for a bit."

"I just dozed off in the car, give me the briefing for the advertisement we’re about to shoot."

Qiao Xi was endorsing a famous domestic perfume brand, which held a high reputation in the market. Among several celebrities considered, the brand finally felt that Qiao Xi’s image was the most fitting, and Wang Li accepted the deal.

Even if it was just a single advertisement, Qiao Xi wouldn’t treat it casually. Seeing her busy, Bei Bei didn’t disturb her.

After boarding the plane, Qiao Xi switched off her phone, only to turn it on at the hotel and see a message Shen Dang had sent a few hours earlier.

[Jerk: Miss Qiao, when are you free to go through the formalities?]

It seemed that Ran Jing pressing them about having children had scared him, and he was eager to divorce.

Qiao Xi snorted, darkly amused as she retaliated in her reply.

[Qiao Xi: What’s the rush? The divorce will happen eventually, but I’m busy now.]

Shen Dang made it tough for her, and she wouldn’t make it easy for him either.

Shen Dang actually found her words oddly familiar.

He must have been looking at his phone, so he replied immediately.

[Jerk: Give me a time.]

[Qiao Xi: I’m in South City.]

[Qiao Xi: You said we were going to collaborate, and the Qiao family matter isn’t settled yet. Are you thinking about breaking the contract? I’m busy for now.]

[Jerk: ...]

Qiao Xi’s mood inexplicably lifted, as if the fatigue from flying had vanished.

The next morning at nine, Qiao Xi and Bei Bei headed to the advertising building to shoot the advertisement.

She had come barefaced; the makeup artist almost envied her flawless skin. "Teacher Qiao, your skin is too good, I can’t see a single flaw. Light makeup suits you well, but with today’s outfit, we have to go heavier. I didn’t expect it to be even more enchanting, so seductive."

Ah! Her heart took a hit!

"That must be what people mean when they say ’light makeup or heavy application, always appropriate.’"

The makeup artist gave a high compliment.

Qiao Xi looked at herself in the mirror, her youthful beauty was indeed her capital, she modestly said, "It’s all maintained with money."

"Hahaha, Teacher Qiao, you really have a sense of humor. Alright, the makeup is okay now."

Bei Bei excitedly took out her phone, "Too beautiful, my Sister Xi is too beautiful, I have to take a picture first!"

For later use on social media.

When Qiao Xi appeared in a cheongsam, the director and the staff’s eyes lit up like sudden bright lights.

This was their ideal brand endorser.

Beauty lies in the bones, not in the skin.

Here was a woman, both bone and skin perfect and exquisite!

Their perfume brand incorporated elements of national style, with a pale pink bottle engraved with the world-famous peony, delicate and charming.

The endorser wore a dark green cheongsam, the color vivid and vintage, and Qiao Xi completely owned the garment.

Although she wore not a single piece of jewelry, her presence felt incredibly powerful.

At first glance, this classic beauty captivated the heart just by her appearance.

The image was a perfect match!

The director had appreciative eyes, "Nice."

He hoped she would bring out her advertisement shooting skills.

This was Qiao Xi’s first perfume advertisement.

Shooting ads was different from filming; the demands were higher, mainly focusing on the aesthetic of the shots.

If it lacked beauty, who would buy the product?

Women always loved beautiful things, it was in their nature.

"Alright, everyone ready, let’s start shooting!"

The director slowly moved the camera.

He couldn’t help marveling again—Qiao Xi truly lived up to her title "Goddess of Divine Beauty," just standing there looking like a piece of art.

Qiao Xi boarded a boat and walked to the deck. As the mist cleared, her eyes caught an antique perfume bottle on the deck.

She was gentle, a light in her eyes.

The hand hidden in the half-sleeve black glove picked up the perfume, pressed it against her face, and slowly closed her eyes, immersed in the fragrance of the moment.

As the boat began to move, Qiao Xi leaned against the ship’s side gracefully, the artificial fog arranged by the crew turned into slow-falling droplets, as if the perfume was blooming, vibrant and colorful.

—All these would be added in post-production.

"Amazing!" The director was thrilled, "The camera loves you! Absolutely fantastic!"

Qiao Xi smiled at him, "Great set design."

"That part is done, onto the next."

The scene changed to an anciently aromatic setting, with the perfume placed on a table. Qiao Xi’s soft, boneless tendrils slowly crawled toward the perfume. She opened the lid and gently pressed the switch, scattering pearls of fragrance into the air.

Amid the swirling smoke, Qiao Xi embraced the perfume and danced enchantingly.

The room was silent, all eyes focused on her, and the people around dared not make a sound.

Qiao Xi, holding the perfume bottle, recited the ad copy, "Being yourself is the most beautiful thing."

"OK! Fantastic, truly fantastic!"

Qiao Xi nailed it in one take, just some post-production left.

Everyone present felt that once the ad was released, it was bound to be a huge hit!

"Teacher Qiao, let’s take a few more photos."

Their brand needed to announce the endorser, first catching netizens’ interest with photos before waiting for the ad release to see the product effect.

Qiao Xi posed, and they took a few more photos.

Looking at those photos was truly a pleasing sight.

The director shook hands with her, "Teacher Qiao, do you have any work plans tonight? GK is hosting a brand banquet tonight, and we would love for Teacher Qiao to attend."

As the endorser, Qiao Xi couldn’t refuse.

"Sure, I’ll be there."

"Hope we can work together again."

Qiao Xi changed out of her cheongsam and left with Bei Bei via the elevator.

Waiting outside the elevator for them, Qiao Xi made eye contact with the leading person.

A fellow industry mate, an advertising star who had risen to fame through commercials—any product she endorsed peaked in sales.

Qiao Xi nodded in greeting and stepped out of the elevator with Bei Bei.

Jian Yi turned her head, an odd look in her eyes measuring Qiao Xi, "That person... is that Qiao Xi?"
