Chapter 429: The busy toddlers

She spoke sternly, unlike her usual sot spoken smiling persona. The two girls looked at each other and then at her.

"I think these songs are all great and it’s my honor to be asked to sing them." the read headed CindyxRella replied.

"So do I." Lou Ying quickly said.

The two women may have had similar voices but they were extremely different in terms of looks. CindyxRella was assured of her beauty, she was tall and confident. Lou Ying was shy, less expressive but equally as beautiful. Chi Lian noticed a small dark mole on Lou Ying’s neck so close to her collar bone. For some, reason she thought that little mole made Lou Ying more alluring than CindyxRella.

She knew without a doubt that the competition between CindyxRella and Lou Ying was going to be fierce.

"Both of you have been chosen because you worked hard to get here. CEO Chi Rui found five girls with voices not so different from yours but out of the five you two proved to be hungrier than the others. You sung as if your very lives depended on it. My hope is that you continue with this hunger through the rest of careers. The moment we put these videos out and introduce you to the world people will begin making comparisons between the two of you. They will pit you against one another and try to turn you into enemies as time passes. I do not want to hear anything about one of you sabotaging the other to get ahead. I want a fine clean competition if you are competing.

The action king and the action emperor have existed in the same empire for years. They have thrived even though they are in the same competitive line of work. You will never hear anything like Wu Liang sabotaging Bei Qing or the other way round. New songs will never dry up for both of you as long as you are focused and clear headed so do not embarrass phoenix entertainment by engaging in petty squabbles.

If you two cannot be friends then be cordial. Do you understand me?"

"Yes ma’am." they replied.

"Good, you two can leave now." she dismissed the two women.

When CindyxRella and Lou Ying returned to the training room, they looked at each other and laughed nervously.

"That was so nerve wrecking." CindyxRella said.

"My legs did not stop shaking even once, she is so scary." Lou Ying sat down on the ground as if she had no energy left.

In the conference room meanwhile they had moved on to the next musician, Ling-Ling. The shooting of the rise music video had been successful and they were about to watch it for the first time.

Chi Rui leaned over and whispered to her, "Sis, we were contacted by the national soccer academy. they want to use rise in their ads for the national team ahead of the Asian football games."

"That’s a good thing, how much are they willing to pay?"

"They also want to include Ling-Ling in the advert. They are offering eight million altogether."

"Say yes, Ling-Ling is still a new singer and this kind of advert will help us spread her image faster. Prepare more songs for her, that stadium which we had booked for Moxi’s concert this year will be used by her if all goes well."

The concert preparations were being made slowly before Du Moxi betrayed the company. Only a few people knew that the stadium had been booked. Not even Du Moxi had been aware of it.

"Thank you for the advise, I have missed having you around here." Chi Rui chuckled.

They watched the music video together, the concept was similar to her spring gala performance. When it ended it was met with approval from everyone.

Ling-Ling smiled and thanked everyone for their support.

"Make preparations for your next song, it’s going to be a collaboration between you and the Shu brothers." Chi Rui told her.

"Yes CEO." she replied.

The meeting was wrapped and only the two siblings were left in the conference room.

"Are you going to pick up our parents from the airport today?" Chi Rui asked her.

"No." she answered, "I have to pick up my children from swimming class again today. Tomorrow they have horse riding and the next day they have dance. In the morning they have a teacher that teaches them words and proper enunciation. I have never seen toddlers with such a busy schedule, in my opinion children should be allowed to play all day at that age but grandma says children from aristocratic families are different. They must be ahead of others in life because they will have big responsibilities in future."

She sighed, took two lemon drops out of her bag and gave her brother one.

"One of them will inherit your phoenix media and another will inherit Jun investments or Jun corporation. I don’t think the old madam is wrong for wanting them to be ahead of their peers. I will go with Chi Wei or Chi Zimo to pick our parents up, don’t worry about it. And if you want to see them, pass by your tea shop in the evening because they are always there every evening to help out.

Speaking about the tea shop I guess congratulations are in order because I have heard that you successfully bought the former Chu family tea shop."

Chi Lian opened another lemon drop and popped it into her mouth. "It was an easy gain for me, quite frankly I am surprised that everything went so smoothly. I was anticipating some intense competition because that shop is in a prime location at the complex."

"Maybe your husband helped." her brother answered. He extended his hand and asked for another lemon drop.

"Hmm, I don’t know. But I should congratulate you too because I have heard that you bought another apartment at the royal boulevard."

Chi Rui and looked at his sister with a broad smile on his face. "Nothing gets past you in this family."

Chi Lian received a phone call and she stepped out to answer it.

"Brother I have to go, there is some kind of emergency at work." she told him. She gave him a handful of lemon drop candies and left. Five minutes later she was inside her building holding a meeting with Gu Xixi and some other employees from the news department.
