Blossoming Flowers

Jiang Yingyue returned to her senses and looked at Han Qingshan.

Having finished his phone call, Han Qingshan had used some time to observe Yu Xiulan and Jiang Yingyue's behavior, and he was quite uncomfortable.

Sitting back behind the desk, Han Qingshan observed Yu Xiulan. "Why are you here today?" he asked, his voice neutral, not displaying any emotion at all.

Usually, Yu Xiulan would use any excuse she could think of to come and converse with Han Qingshan or use any means to grab his attention, and today was no exception.

The moment she heard his voice, Yu Xiulan awoke from her stupor, and the smile on her face bloomed.

"Young Master Shan," she almost purred, her voice so soft and warm that almost any male would feel their knees weaken, but Han Qingshan was completely unaffected.

Seeing that he did not react, she grit her teeth and continued to speak, "I have received a few scripts offering me the role of the female lead," she continued. "I am wondering which one I should take, and after considering the company's current situation, I cannot help but want to ask for your opinion."

Having said this, she gestured for her manager. The manager opened her briefcase before taking out seven scripts and placing them in front of Han Qingshan.

Frowning Han Qingshan could only sigh, and take a look at them one after another. He did not read the scripts but checked the sponsors to see which of the scripts were most suitable.

Out of all the scripts, he found that three of them had support from either Starry Night Entertainment Agency or the Zhou family, and thus he quickly put them away and handed the other four scripts back to the manager.

"You can pick any of these four," he said. "Just go with whichever one you prefer."

Seeing that he had rushed through the job, Yu Xiulan was not pleased, but she understood that he was currently very busy with the war against Starry Night Entertainment Agency, so she quickly excused his actions which were bordering on being rude.

Jiang Yingyue sat quietly on the sofa. She was feeling rather uncomfortable about realizing her own emotions, and she was fighting an inner battle.

She wanted to stay friends with Han Qingshan, but she had a premonition that if she kept spending time with him, then she would fall head over heels for him.

If that was the case, would it not be for the best to stop their contact? She could not afford to fall in love with her current identity.

She was very well aware that it was not possible for her to continue living as a man. It had become more and more obvious to her, but she was not sure how to put an end to it.

The last nine years had been spent as a boy; all her school results were under the name of Jiang Fengmian. If she were to give up, she would have to begin from scratch.

She was so deep in thought that she had not even heard the conversation between Han Qingshan and Yu Xiulan. She was just feeling gloomy. Most of all, she had the urge to tell the truth to Han Qingshan, but she dared not.

She knew that Han Qingshan was currently treating her as a special person, but if he found out that she had lied to him all this time, would he not be upset and start hating her instead?

Just that thought made her heart feel painful, and she quickly decided to think about her emotions later. Right now she was at work, so it was not a good idea to waste time thinking about her own problems.

She lifted her head and saw that Song Liwei was leading Yu Xiulan and her manager out of the office, and she gathered her thoughts.

"What am I supposed to do?" Jiang Yingyue asked curiously, and Han Qingshan looked at her for some time. He had not actually thought of anything for her to do, so this was a tricky question.

"For now, just observe me and Song Liwei, and get used to the work here in the office. Follow me anywhere I go and help me when I ask for it."

Jiang Yingyue nodded her head and looked at Song Liwei with glowing and excited eyes. It was a look of worship, and Song Liwei could not help but feel a shiver run down his spine. This person who he was treating like his ancestor was suddenly looking at him with such fervor. It was not something he was comfortable with.

"How is our plan about the counterattack going?" Han Qingshan asked Song Liwei, finally focusing on his job, and Song Liwei went towards the desk, handing over three contracts.

"We have finalized three contracts and have their signatures on them. They have already canceled their previous contracts with Starry Sky Entertainment Agency, but no one has heard about it yet, I am of the impression that Starry Sky has kept quiet.

"The media has not caught wind of it yet, and knowing the people from Starry Sky, they have not told the Zhou Corporation yet.

"We are also contacting another five of their people, whereas one is a member who left us. She was the one who contacted us, not the other way around.

"We have not told her too much, but she seems to understand the current situation and wants to go with the one who is offering the best deal."

Han Qingshan nodded his head as he listened to the report, and he contemplated for a moment.

"Finalize the contracts as soon as possible. We want to have them signed over before the week is done."
