Quick Transmigration with Female Lead Aura - Chapter 124-Part 1
Chapter 124-Part 1
The performance of “Dawn” exceeded expectations. Even Jiang Nian, who was the least favored by the public, received the most pertinent praise and affirmation. The ratings of “Dawn” have already exceeded one and are showing a trend of continuing to rise.
Previously, whenever Jiang Nian appeared on camera, the media would always bring up her past scandals to attract attention. News articles would link her to various topics, such as how Jiang Nian, after enduring hardships and a long silence, had returned to the screen and whether she could bring us a different performance; why Jiang Nian, betrayed by love, was once again taking on romantic roles, and if she could still portray the beauty of love; how Jiang Nian had made a grand return to the entertainment industry; and let’s see how Sun Xu and Wang Jingjing are doing now.
As a result, even Sun Xu and Wang Jingjing received more attention.
But now, things were different. The random sneers and doubts had finally disappeared, replaced by discussions of Jiang Nian’s acting skills, her action scenes, her crying scenes, and the subtle sparks between her character Song Chengcheng and Xiao Qian’s character Du Wei. Even a glance exchanged between them could leave a lasting impression.
Those who had previously claimed Jiang Nian was dragging “Dawn” down had nothing more to say. Those who felt sorry for Xiao Qian were also silent. As “Dawn” aired, the voices discussing Jiang Nian’s past scandals grew quieter, until eventually, few mentioned them. Even when they did, they spoke of her as someone who had been reborn from the ashes and made a triumphant return.
Jiang Nian had executed a beautiful comeback.
Jia Ping was ecstatic and once again marveled at Jiang Nian’s prowess, feeling that the hard work of the past year had not been in vain.
A little over a month later, “Dawn” concluded with ratings breaking three, making Xiao Qian, the male lead, a current hot star. The second, third, and even fourth male leads also saw a surge in popularity, going from obscurity to household names, with offers for scripts and endorsements pouring in.
Jiang Nian, naturally, reaped considerable rewards as well. She successfully transformed herself, got rid of her past image, and became a talented actress with good acting skills among the popular young actresses.
Riding this wave of popularity, Jia Ping used his excellent managerial skills to secure a few photo shoots with prestigious magazines for her, two major endorsements, and another for a beverage. Consequently, Jiang Nian earned another sum of money.
As a far-sighted genius, Jiang Nian wisely allocated her money. She also bought a tie clip as a birthday gift for Xue Hang, which was still a secret hidden in his wardrobe.
Xue Hang found himself troubled by his unique ability, as he knew exactly which pocket of which garment the gift was hidden in. He had also heard her happily planning for a long time about how to surprise him and make him happy, with the help of his assistant. He saw everything yet had to pretend he knew nothing.
This was his sweet dilemma.
However, Xue Hang was more concerned about another matter.
He wiped his lips with a tissue, looking at Jiang Nian, who was enjoying her meal. She took a sip of red wine, her smile bright, her eyes sparkling, and her cheeks flushed. To him, her beauty surpassed the night sky and city lights outside the window.
She was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen.
“Jia Ping told me you donated half of your earnings?”
Xue Hang had heard this from Jia Ping because it was a significant sum. Even a genuine philanthropist wouldn’t usually donate ten million yuan without reason.
Apparently, after receiving her pay and endorsement fees, Jiang Nian had counted the money several times,then with a wave of her hand, she gave away more than half of it.
Jia Ping was so anxious that he thought Jiang Nian was crazy, stupid, or mentally ill? Or was she deceived by some pyramid scheme? But when he checked, he found that it was indeed a formal charity organization. He became even crazier: “That’s a lot of money! Why donate it all? Don’t you want to buy a house, a car, or lots of gold?”
Jia Ping had shouted in disbelief. Jiang Nian looked at him with an “unfathomable” expression of “what do you know?” thinking that he is an idiot.
Jia Ping was on the verge of a heart attack. Can’t you just donate a few hundred thousand? Do you think ten million yuan is just a windfall?
With no other option, he turned to Xue Hang, hoping the boss would take her to a hospital to check her brain.
Xue Hang had been surprised but not as shocked as Jia Ping. He asked Jiang Nian about it, respecting her decision but wanting to understand her reasoning.
Jiang Nian nodded, “Yes.”
Xue Hang was somewhat surprised, “Nian Nian, do you like doing charity?”
Jiang Nian thought seriously, “I guess I do.”
Although her heart was bleeding when she donated so much money, she couldn’t help it. This was the reality. Fate was abominable!
Xue Hang: “…Huh? What does that mean? I don’t understand.”
He saw that Jiang Nian’s excited heart seemed to dim all of a sudden, and the dark despair seemed to spread, and it looked like she was upset.
Jiang Nian was genuinely upset. Speaking of the 10 million she had given away, her heart was really hurt, but she was helpless. Although she was doing charity, it was purely selfish. She just wanted to do good deeds and accumulate more blessings for her next life. She hoped that all the gods and Buddhas would see her good intentions and let her marry into a good family so that she could win at the starting line!
“…? cough! cough!!” Xue Hang choked on his wine, coughing as he held his fist to his lips, his eyes wide.
Jiang Nian was worried, “Take it easy, baby.”
Xue Hang coughed, rubbing his forehead with a painful and troubled expression.
Jiang Nian, concerned, stopped eating and went over to pat his back, “It’s okay; it’s not embarrassing to choke on wine. I won’t laugh at you.”
Xue Hang looked at her, her blinking in confusion. He pulled her into a tight embrace, kissing the top of her head with a sigh, “You’re such an….idiot.”
Jiang Nian: “Huh?”
…Was he worried about her donating the million? What a beautiful misunderstanding.
Xue Hang said, “Nian Nian, if you want to do charity, I’ll help you.”
But she refused, feeling it needed to be her effort to show her sincerity: “It’s okay, I’ll manage on my own.”
In order to let the gods and Buddhas see her devotion and remember her merits, what does it matter if she temporarily gives up something with great pain? It’s nothing!!!
Xue Hang: “…”
He might really be in love with a fool.
