Chen Jin was too tired. After hanging up the call, Jian Ai told him to take a shower and rest.

It was almost five in the morning. Jian Ai had no intention of going back to sleep, so she changed her clothes and went to the yard to train.

At night, Jian Ai went out with Chen Jin.

Xia Qinghuan had long arrived at a hotpot stall in Haicheng District. There was a table filled with dishes.

“I’ve already ordered everything. See what else you want to eat. We can add more!”

Compared to Chen Jin’s dispirited appearance, Xia Qinghuan looked energetic.

“It’s enough. You have ordered too much!”

Beef, mutton, duck intestines, tripes, and various vegetables and meatballs were all piled up on the table. There was also a trolley at the side that was filled with ingredients.

“It’s not much. I’m just too greedy!” Xia Qinghuan looked at Jian Ai as if she was a starving person trying to make a living. “The production team is good at everything, except for meals. All three meals every day are takeout boxes!”

Jian Ai couldn’t help but laugh. “You’ve only been in the team for four or five days, but you’re already complaining about takeout boxes?”

Xia Qinghuan pursed her lips when she heard that. “I’m not complaining. I’m just tired of eating it every day. I just think it’s to satisfy my hunger. It’s not enjoyable.”

Chen Jin, who was at the side, couldn’t help but say, “I think the takeout boxes from the production team are quite delicious. The dishes are also different every day.”

“It’s not bad, but I can’t eat it every day,” Xia Qinghuan said. Then, she quickly waved her hand and looked at Jian Ai. “Alright, let’s not talk about this anymore! Didn’t you want to say something to me? Tell me. Let’s talk while we eat!”

As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Qinghuan picked up a whole plate of fatty beef and poured it into the pot. She did not care if the meat would be tough. It seemed that she was craving for a hotpot.

Jian Ai and Chen Jin looked at each other and then at Xia Qinghuan.

Jian Ai spoke first, “Chen Jin told me about your situation. Including Director Wang Yiming’s company and Yun Buyao’s studio, many companies want to sign a contract with you.”

Xia Qinghuan sat opposite them and nodded gently when she heard this.

She knew all these things. There were even companies that went past her manager to talk to her, but she stopped them all with a single sentence, “Please talk to my manager about everything.”

Jian Ai asked, “What do you think?”

Xia Qinghuan blinked, and her gaze landed on Chen Jin. She smiled thoughtlessly and said, “I’ll listen to Brother Jin. He’s my manager. Of course, he’ll help me decide!”

Xia Qinghuan and Chen Jin didn’t belong to any company. Then, as an artist, Xia Qinghuan’s manager should help her negotiate and finalize all the arrangements and collaboration matters. This was understandable.

However, Jian Ai did not expect that Xia Qinghuan would not have any objections to such an important matter and give Chen Jin full authority.

Chen Jin was stunned as well. Other than the joy and gratitude from Qinghuan’s trust, he felt even more pressure and anxiety.

The more Qinghuan trusted him, the more afraid he was that he would make a mistake!

“Qinghuan, this concerns your future. You have the right to comment and make decisions,” Chen Jin straightened his expression and said to Xia Qinghuan.

He wasn’t trying to shift the blame. He just didn’t want Qinghuan to regret it in the future.

Xia Qinghuan just blinked and looked at Chen Jin. “I just don’t like my father’s arrangements, that’s all. But you’re my companion and my manager. I believe you can help me make the best decision.”

Xia Qinghuan added, “It’s not that I have no objections. My only objection is that we definitely must not sign with Tianhuang Entertainment!”
