Chapter 180: Stepping Stone

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

When Gu Xiao and Chu An heard the two people-in-charge’s words, their feelings were a little complicated.

After all, although they wanted to introduce their country’s unique culture to the citizens back then, they still hoped that their first variety show would be a theme that had never appeared in the market.

Only a theme that had never appeared before would be even more attractive.

At that time, they would never have thought that the decision they made back then would become an opportunity for Star Brilliance to break the present deadlock.

Gu Xiao and Chu An came back to their senses and looked at the two people-in-charge’s amiable expressions. They decided in their hearts that no matter what, they would continue to film the variety show “The Vanished Beauty” more diligently.

Whether it was for the viewership ratings or to repay the sincerity of the Central Television Station.

Thinking of this, Gu Xiao felt a little more relaxed because of the words of the two people in charge.

“Don’t worry, we’ll definitely continue working on The Vanished Beauty in the future!”

Hearing this, Manager Yang laughed and waved at Gu Xiao.

“’The Vanished Beauty’ is only one of the reasons. Your subsequent ‘The Secret of Love’ was also meaningful. Of course, if ‘The Return of the Crimson Child’ itself was not good, our station director would not have agreed to buy ‘The Return of the Crimson Child’ because of these reasons.”

At the end of the day, “The Vanished Beauty” was just a stepping stone. “The Return of the Crimson Child” itself was very well-made, and that was the reason why Central Television Station bought this television drama.

The two people-in-charge chatted with Gu Xiao and Chu An a lot, and they also raised some small opinions about the future development direction for Star Brilliance.

Gu Xiao and Chu An had planned to treat the two people-in-charge to a meal, but they were tactfully rejected.

“We’ve also heard about the two of you. Although the company’s matters are important, don’t slack on your studies just because your grades are good. The college entrance examination is also very important.”

Gu Xiao and Chu An humbly accepted the words from the two people-in-charge as if they were elders. Then, they personally escorted the two people-in-charge out of Star Brilliance.

When the two of them returned to the office, Gu Xiao did not suppress her joy. The corners of her lips could not help but curl up.

She buried herself in Chu An’s arms. “That’s great. ‘The Return of the Crimson Child’ has been sold, and it’s even going to be screened on the national channel!”

Hearing Gu Xiao’s joyful voice, Chu An was also a little happy.

He held Gu Xiao’s waist tightly with one hand and raised his other hand slightly to stroke Gu Xiao’s head a few times.

He seemed to feel that this was too little. He lowered his head and planted a light kiss on Gu Xiao’s head before raising his head in satisfaction.

“Yes, we don’t have to worry about ‘The Return of the Crimson Child’ now. We can also relax and have a meal with Brother. Previously, we promised to have a meal with Brother, but it was delayed because of ‘The Return of the Crimson Child’. Now, we can make up for it. We can also let Brother know this good news.”

Upon hearing Chu An’s words, Gu Xiao lifted her head from Chu An’s arms.

“You’re right. I almost forgot that 1 have to eat with my brother!”

After she finished speaking, she wanted to retreat from Chu An’s arms, but she was blocked by a pair of arms.

Gu Xiao struggled slightly. Seeing that Chu An wasn’t willing to let go, she could only give up on the idea of leaving. She leaned into Chu An’s arms again and found a comfortable position before she stopped moving.

She took out her cell phone from her pocket and called Ji Chen. She talked briefly with him, arranged a time and place for the meal and hung up the phone.

After putting her phone back into her pocket, Gu Xiao buried herself in Chu An’s arms again.

Being in Chu An’s arms always gave her an exceptional sense of security.

Chu An lowered his eyes to look at Gu Xiao, who was curled up in his arms, and a trace of darkness and desire flashed across his eyes.

Ever since the other party turned 18, he had been a little restless. However, thinking about the college entrance examination and the company’s matters, his heart ached for Gu Xiao, so he did not make a move completely.

However, he could not help but want to get closer to the other party, such as like the present situation now.

However, at this time, it was also an abnormal test of his endurance.

With this thought in mind, Chu An suppressed the desire in his heart, but his grip on Gu Xiao couldn’t help but tighten..
