With a light sigh, Hiya said, "Shaoyang has told me seriously that they are deeply sorry for you and want to make it up to you in some way. It seems that besides money, making you more famous is the only compensation they can offer, Xinran. Will you accept it?"
"Hiya, do you think I should accept?" Xinran smiled lightly. It was childish of these two brothers to stab someone and then offer them a piece of candy.
They thought she would ignore her own heartache and pain just to become the brightest star in the entertainment industry. They believed that as long as there was an opportunity, she wouldn't care about continuing to be entangled with these two brothers who had no good intentions. Yes, she wanted to succeed, but she doubted whether their current goodwill came without ulterior motives.
"If I were you, I would accept! In a few days, Qingtian Group's Sky Media will hold an opening party, and on that day they will announce the artists they are about to sign, and you will be one of them. Xinran, you should know that Qingtian's status and influence in the entertainment industry are at the top. If you can become a favored star of Qingtian, it would be hard not to become famous. Since Mu Shaosi wants to use this method to make it up to you, the opportunity is right in front of you. Why not accept it?"
"Hiya, can you honestly tell me that I shouldn't be the first pawn in their game? There must have been many women deceived or even toyed with before me, right?" Xinran did not respond directly to Hiya's words but slowly picked up her coffee cup, inhaling the aroma wafting from it, and asked with a drifting tone.
"Yes! You are not the first!" Hiya nodded. However, Xinran was the first one who made Shaoyang and his Underworld brother feel guilty at the same time, which was enough.
"Then for those past pawns, do they provide compensation after deceiving them? Do they feel guilty?"
"No, Xinran. If you believe me, I can tell you that you are the first."
"Haha, it seems I should feel gratified or even uniquely fortunate because I am the first woman they have looked up to. Shouldn't I be excited to the point of madness? After all, Mu Shaosi is the president of Qingtian Group, and Augus is also a top star in the film industry!" Xinran looked at Hiya with sarcasm.
"Xinran, I'm here today as a negotiator for Shaoyang not only because he entrusted me but also because we have a good relationship. I don't want you to close yourself off because of this scam or waste this opportunity. From my years as a manager, I've seen how many actresses succeed through underhanded means in this industry. So I think you should reconsider; although this opportunity comes at a high cost, it doesn't require you to sell anything. What you can gain from it in the future will definitely surpass what those actresses have achieved!"
After listening to Hiya's continuous persuasion, Xinran smiled softly and said, "Hiya, I can tell you're looking out for me. Alright, I agree with you. Don't they just want me to show up at the opening party? I'll go! As you said, such a great opportunity—how could I not cherish it?"
"Xinran, I told you that you are a smart woman. On the day of the party, not only should you show up, but you also need to dress perfectly. After the party, you will be signed as Qingtian's artist!"
Xinran glanced at Hiya. She seemed to have relaxed significantly after persuading her to accept their brothers' goodwill, and her tone became much lighter. Could it be that her nod really held such important significance? She was curious to see what else Augus and Mu Shaosi could extract from her!
