Because of Jiang Lu’s “clarification,” the scandal of Yan Zhang’s affair was finally over, and the pressure on Swallowtail entertainment company was also reduced.
In addition, Jiang Lu had signed with Swallowtail, so most of the artistes who were ready to jump ship chose to wait and see. This also gave Swallowtail a chance to catch its breath and completely dissolved the internal crisis caused by the previous loss of staff.
The shares of the Yan Corporation were gradually rising. Father Yan’s furrowed brows slowly relaxed, and his eyes revealed a satisfied look.
“Good!”
He patted Yan Zhang’s shoulder heavily and couldn’t help but laugh. “As expected of my son! He didn’t panic in the face of danger and was even able to turn the disadvantage into an advantage!”
Yan Zhang curled his lips, and his eyes were full of pride.
“However, it’s all thanks to Jiang Lu this time.”
Father Yan sighed and said, “They are both daughters of the Jiang family. Why is there such a big difference?”
Father Yan did not have a deep relationship with Jiang Zhi’s parents, unlike mother Yan, who shared an old friendship with them. Therefore, he was quite dissatisfied with Jiang Zhi, who had caused a disturbance in the Yan family.
Moreover, it was inevitable that men’s eyes would wander to other women as they socialized outside.
In the end, it was Jiang Zhi who was not sensible enough to understand Zhang’er’s hardships.
Father Yan’s gaze flickered as he glanced at Yan Zhang. “This Jiang Lu… ?”
Yan Zhang understood his father’s meaning and couldn’t help but reveal a trace of delight. “She likes me too.”
Father Yan clapped his hands and laughed loudly before nodding repeatedly. “Very good. Jiang Lu is now an A-list female star. If we can keep her in Swallowtail for the long term, the company’s future will surely be very promising!”
He shook his head with a regretful expression.
“Unfortunately, Jiang Lu is only the youngest daughter of the Jiang family. Moreover, you’re already married to Jiang Zhi.”
At the mention of Jiang Zhi’s name, Yan Zhang’s face was filled with disgust.
“When this storm passes, I’ll definitely make Jiang Zhi pay the price!”
Yan Zhang gnashed his teeth in hatred. “When that time comes, I’ll make sure that she doesn’t get a single cent and completely scram out of the Yan family!”
Seeing that Father Yan was a little doubtful, Yan Zhang said frankly, “The Jiang family has cut off Jiang Zhi’s source of income.”
“It’s still unknown who will inherit the Jiang family’s wealth in the future.”
Hearing Yan Zhang’s words, Father Yan immediately felt more confident.
“Alright, then you should get in touch with Jiang Lu more and test the Jiang family’s waters.”
Father Yan said mercilessly, “If Jiang Zhi is useless, get a divorce as soon as possible so that there won’t be any more problems!”
…
After Jiang Lu left for Swallowtail, many of her endorsements and magazines followed in.
In order to solidify the future cooperation, Yan Zhang specially organized a meeting and invited all the advertisers to attend. After negotiating the figure, they signed the agreement together.
At the banquet, a middle-aged man suddenly rubbed his hands and approached Yan Zhang with a flattering smile on his face.
