“I like smart girls.” Qi Jun didn’t say the name; instead, he answered indirectly.
Anyone would know who was the smart one once they knew Song Meng and Li Xiangling for a few minutes.
Yun Xiangxiang didn’t want this to happen, but it did anyway. She sighed, “I think you’re a decent guy, so here’s a reminder. Don’t confess to Xiangling so soon. You should let her get to know you first.”
“Why?” Qi Jun wasn’t in a hurry; he just wanted to know more about Li Xiangling.
Yun Xiangxiang gave him a fake smile. “You’re just Ah Mian’s childhood friend; she’s my girlfriend. It’s clear who’s closer to me, so do you think I will help you?”
Yun Xiangxiang didn’t know why Qi Jun fell for her friends, but something must have happened over the few days when Qi Jun was staying with them. He must have been attracted to her back then…
Qi Jun was a decent guy, and Yun Xiangxiang thought he would be a great boyfriend. But she wouldn’t try to match them up, since she wasn’t the one dating.
She wouldn’t help Qi Jun by telling him Li Xiangling’s personal info either unless Li Xiangling told her that she was dating Qi Jun.
When they would be a couple, Yun Xiangxiang wouldn’t mind giving him ideas to make Li Xiangling happy.
She couldn’t do anything as an outsider at this stage though, especially when she was an outsider Li Xiangling acknowledged. If she interfered, Li Xiangling might feel troubled.
Qi Jun would have a hard time pursuing Li Xiangling. Yun Xiangxiang and Li Xiangling shared some similarities. When she knew who Song Mian was back then, Yun Xiangxiang’s first response was to run.
If it weren’t because of the Song Family’s peculiarity, she wouldn’t agree to date Song Mian so easily.
She was worried that someone might know what Song Mian thought if she delayed it. If they sabotaged their relationship before they dated, she might become enemies with Song Mian.
She wanted to get into this early, so she could break it off earlier if they were not a great match. It would be better for her and Song Mian like that.
Qi Jun was as rich and powerful as Song Mian was, but the difference here was that he had choices. The Qi Family had a lot of potential successors to choose from too.
Song Mian only had his father in his family, while Qi Jun’s parents were alive and kicking. Even his grandparents were alive, and the relationship between his family members was complicated too.
“Good luck, young man!” Yun Xiangxiang patted Qi Jun’s shoulder sagely.
She swung her beloved scented ball as she turned around and went back to her room.
She shared a room with her friends, but they slept on different beds. Looking at Li Xiangling, who had to sleep by the wall out of habit, Yun Xiangxiang slowly walked up to her.
Li Xiangling was different from Yun Xiangxiang. Putting aside her past life, Yun Xiangxiang had a happy family in this life.
But Li Xiangling was a girl who grew up in hardships, so she would clutch her blanket tightly when she slept.
She was more insecure than Hua Xiangrong was, and not everyone could walk into her heart.
She was scared of rich men…
Yun Xiangxiang gently caressed Li Xiangling’s hand. As her friend slowly relaxed, her blanket was slowly pulled away by Yun Xiangxiang, and she covered her friend with it.
He Wei only gave her one day of rest, and she had to go to SL for the contract signing on the second day. This was what He Wei had agreed to.
They had also agreed to the time and place for the promo photo shooting, and Yun Xiangxiang was handed the promo photo’s content.
SL even gave her a series of handbags of different sizes and amounted to more than a dozen.
They were of a girly, pastel style, and Yun Xiangxiang loved it.
“Can I keep a few and give the rest to my fans?” Yun Xiangxiang asked for permission.
She loved the bags, but she couldn’t use it all. Not to mention she loved to give her fans the products she was endorsing, since that would be the best promotion and her way of showing gratitude to her fans.
Even so, she had to inform SL before doing this, as their handbags were expensive. She didn’t want SL to think she was disrespectful.
“Of course.” SL’s management nodded with a smile.
Yun Xiangxiang took the luxury bags back with her and had her friends pick the ones they liked before snapping the picture of the remaining handbags and posted it on Weibo.
[Actress Yun Xiangxiang V: I endorsed another brand, and these are the bags the company gave me. I can’t use it all, so here’s a giveaway. Anyone want to use the same model as I do?]
Yun Xiangxiang uploaded the pictures of her slinging the bags.
Putting aside how expensive the bags were, many of her fans were already clamoring for them just because they would have the same model as Yun Xiangxiang.
[I do, I do, I do! I want to have the same bag as Xiangxiang does!]
[Ah… Please bless me, goddess of luck. I didn’t get the lipstick last time!]
[I just got the lipstick today, now all I need is the bag.]
[I might be a guy, but I’ll use it if I get it!]
[You must be single, or else you wouldn’t dare go crazy like this.]
[…]
Since endorsing a top luxury brand was an event worthy of celebration, Li Man and the other actors also joined the fun.
[Li Man V: I’m just congratulating you, so I’m reposting this. Though if I were chosen, I… I would want it too!]
[Sun Qiluo V: If I got chosen, give me the biggest one! I like the biggest one!]
[Wei Shanshan V: If I got chosen, I’ll bring this with me every day.
[He Xingzhou V: If I win… can I exchange it for cash?]
[Xue YuV: If I win, I’ll give it to my fans!]
[…]
Many of the actors who knew Yun Xiangxiang came over and said what they would do if they won.
Thanks to that, Yun Xiangxiang’s fans started talking about what they would do if they won…
About two hours later, they made a new hashtag on Trending on Weibo: #YunXiangxiangWeiboLuckyDraw#
Yun Xiangxiang clasped her forehead when she saw this.
Yun Xiangxiang went to CX’s company the next day. It was a luxury brand for perfumes, and as this was Eric’s compensation to her, giving her a two-year contract was no problem.
And they gave her a higher endorsement fee than SL did. As money was no problem for Eric, Yun Xiangxiang wasn’t going to refuse it.
After discussing the details and agreeing on the shoot’s time and place, CX gave Yun Xiangxiang two big boxes of perfumes.
“You can give it to your fans.” The person in charge grinned.
Yun Xiangxiang was amused.
She was known for giving her fans the company’s products she was endorsing, and now even the brands knew about it.
Yun Xiangxiang had done only two giveaways, so they were probably aiming for the trend Yun Xiangxiang could stir up since many people would join in the fun.
People such as Li Man, Xue Yu, and He Xingzhou. All these actors were famous in China.
These actors’ fans would know about the brand once their idols made any move. This promotion was better than any ad they could make.
If they played an ad, the audience would either change the channels or skip it with their member privileges. They might not watch the ad from start to end.
But if the group of idols joined in the giveaway, the whole of China would know about it, except for those who didn’t surf Weibo.
Yun Xiangxiang couldn’t be biased toward one brand, so she made another giveaway the next day.
