Chapter 154: My Dog Got Bitten

“Sister Su Yi, Big Boss Huo is like me. He’s sharp-eyed and he has taken a liking to your potential. That’s why he wants to sign a contract with you!” Ling Sheng comforted her. “You can call him. Manager Qiao is very nice.”

Fine!

She had wondered why her father had come. So that was the reason!

Su Yi followed Ling Sheng’s instructions and called Qiao Haolun. She apologized first, but the other party’s attitude was very good. He was so nice that she felt flattered and started chatting over the phone.

Ling Sheng ran to the production team and squatted beside Mo Ning. “Director Mo, tell me honestly, what’s the relationship between my boss and this show?”

He had kicked her over here first.

Then, he had come over.

Now, he wanted to sign a contract with Su Yi.

Mo Ning knew she was smart and she could not hide anything from her, so she told her, “Your boss has invested in the show.”

“Does that mean he’s had his eye on Sister Su Yi and wants to sign a contract with her?” Ling Sheng asked.

Mo Ning pulled her aside mysteriously. “He picked a few people from the production team. I’ll tell you everything. Don’t tell anyone.”

Which artist would not want to sign a contract with Huo Ci’s Studio? Even though it was not the biggest management company in the country, it was the best comprehensively and it had high standards for signing contracts with people.

The children on the guest team were also great. However, if they were to find out that there was still a selection process, there might be conflict.

“Don’t worry, I’ll keep it a secret.” Ling Sheng knew that her father was not that bored. It would make sense if he had invested in the show.

Best Actor Huo’s title was a guarantee for viewership ratings. Even if passers-by did not watch his variety show, there were tens of thousands of Little Cis. Even though it was a variety show, there would still be discussions about it.

Mo Ning had said that Huo Ci was using his personal name to invest in this variety show, not the company’s name, so there was no official announcement. Therefore, other than the few parties involved, no one knew about it.

Ling Sheng was wondering which people her father had chosen, which ones he had his eye on, and which ones he wanted to sign a contract with. To be honest, she quite liked the guests.

Although Su Yi was very happy, she was someone who had been through a lot, so she would not spread any news that had yet to be confirmed. She would be very low-key. Besides Ling Sheng, she had not told anyone else.

Ling Sheng called Xiaoqi every day, but her grandparents had gone overseas to visit an old friend who was sick, so she could only call her father. In a pleasing voice, she asked, “Father, is Xiaoqi there?”

Huo Ci sat lazily on the sofa with his legs crossed. When he saw the crying child, he frowned. “No.”

Upon finishing his sentence, he hung up immediately.

He had just hung up on Ling Sheng when someone called again.

“Sixth Brother, that’s not nice of you. You agreed to attend my birthday party. Look at the time. Where are you? I’ll send someone to fetch you.”

“I can’t come. My dog got bitten.”

“Your dog got bitten? What does that have to do with my birthday party? Is your dog more important than me?”

“How dare you compare yourself to my dog? I want to teach him how to fight and bite back!”

After speaking, Huo Ci hung up the phone and cursed under his breath before walking toward Xiaoqi.

Xiaoqi had been crying the whole time. He was wearing the smallest boxing gloves as he hit a punching bag. His face was also bruised and swollen. He turned around to look at Huo Ci, his throat hoarse as he looked at him timidly. “Grandpa, did my mommy call?”

“Are you done crying? How dare you cry when you’ve been beaten up like this? Why didn’t you hit back when he hit you? Back when your old man was your age, he was invincible!” Huo Ci pointed at him angrily.
