“Heh... I never knew you could be that thoughtful. If I am to hook up with President Huo, the biggest benefactors would be you and the Xu family! But it’s a pity that you’ve miscalculated; President Huo didn’t even fancy me.” Xu Xiyan plopped down on the sofa and sneered, “So tell me, who are you going to deliver me as a gift to today?
“Just look at you, talking nonsense again. Dad has some business for you. Since the production of “Red Sleeved Beauty” is wrapping up soon, have you decided on your next gig?”
Xu Xiyan cast a sidelong glance at him and replied, “Nope.”
Xu Jinshan took two folders from his desk and placed them on the coffee table in front of her. “Take a look. Dad has two good roles here, all of which are reserved for you. If you like any of them, you can take the role anytime. The pay will not be low.”
“Roles? For me?”
Xu Xiyan was quite surprised. She would rather believe that he would dig a trap for her to jump into, not actually pick some roles for her kindheartedly.
Xu Xiyan could clearly see that Xu Jinshan had deliberately used these useless roles to get in her good graces and he was most likely doing it for Xu Xinrou!
So, in order to keep her away from snatching Xu Xinrou’s opportunities, Xu Jinshan had found these useless roles to stall her?
Xu Xiyan threw the script onto the table. “I’ve read them. They’re not suitable for me. You should give them to your precious daughter!”
The corner of Xu Jinshan’s lips twitched. He didn’t expect Xu Xiyan to have such a picky appetite. She actually turned her nose up at the roles he had picked for her?
Xu Jinshan was displeased but he did not show it on his face. He said again, “Yanyan, these two roles are specially reserved for you by Dad. You’ve not officially debuted, not to mention that you got entangled with that murder case last time. It’s already considered good enough that I could obtain these two roles for you. Think about it carefully. Don’t be a fool!”
In fact, Xu Jinshan had done this entirely for his daughter Xu Xinrou.
Because Xu Xinrou was worried that Xu Xiyan would be selected as the “Root of Evil” female lead, she got her father to trap Xu Xiyan with a minor role.
When the time came, he would use an exclusive contract to control all of her time and schedule. So even if she was selected, she still could not participate in the shoot.
Both father and daughter had come up with such a devious move and Xu Xiyan could already hear in her head the mad clatter of their abacuses as they eagerly counted their potential profits. However, did they really think that she would be foolish enough to take the bait?
“No need. You’ve chosen such major characters but I’m just an unqualified little substitute actor. You should take care of others!”
