Chapter 268: 101 Alian comes out of retreat to compose music again! (Second Update)_2
Bai Lian finished giving Lance his acupuncture, then received a call from Xu En.
“Alian,” the voice on the phone was full of joy, warm yet forceful, “are you coming over for dinner on Saturday?”
Bai Lian methodically put away the remaining silver needles.
While heading back to her room, she replied, “I can’t, my uncle is moving on Saturday, I have to go to his place.”
Only a few close people knew about Ji Shaojun moving.

They had not informed Xu En or Ji Mulan.
Xu En hung up the call and, pressing his brow, asked his assistant, “Can we change the time of the press conference?”
The assistant was startled by his question.
But it seemed Xu En wasn’t joking.
“President Xu, the time has already been set, and invitations have been sent to all the partners,” the assistant said cautiously, “Changing the time at this point… wouldn’t be good.”
The date of the press conference was also chosen as an auspicious day.
Businesspeople always believe in these things.
If the time was changed suddenly, not only would it break the chosen date, but it would also lower credibility, providing no clear benefit to the Xu Family.
Xu En had just asked out of curiosity, feeling it was a pity.
How could it just so happen to coincide with the day Ji Shaojun was moving?
“Any news from Chen Ye?” Xu En put down his phone and started again.
The big event in Xiangcheng was Xu En’s only chance to invite Chen Ye.
The assistant shook their head, “The invitation was sent, but from what people in the department say, Chen Ye is tied up on Saturday.”
It seemed Saturday really wasn’t a good time, why was it that one after another, everyone was busy?
Xu En took off his glasses, his gaze settling calmly on the window outside, “How many people from the main family will come?”
This…
“Four people,” the assistant looked up, “the old lady and the rest don’t have the time.”
Friday.

Beicheng, Time Media headquarters.
Man Xi’s agent passed through the main entrance, pressed the elevator button, and went straight to the general manager’s office floor.
“Ding”
The elevator door opened.
The agent saw Man Xi and smiled, “Man Xi, did Director Wan give you a call?”
“Great Yong” didn’t have traditional male or female leads; it was a history drama where nearly everyone was a lead.
The agent always had information a step ahead of others.
That morning, the rest of the roles had been confirmed, leaving only the role of “Bai Xiangjun.”
“It looks like I should congratulate you in advance,” the cool, young man beside Man Xi revealed a smile, “I need to hurry up with my song, too.”
This was An Qi, a popular singer.
He was also the person constantly paired with Man Xi in online shipping rumors.
Both of their popularity initially surged because of this ‘shipping’.
This time, as Man Xi was set to appear in “Great Yong,” An Qi also signed with Dayong and was crafting a song tailored for Man Xi’s role,
Hearing this, Man Xi and her agent both laughed, neither refuting An Qi’s words. On that day, Wan Qiushan’s satisfaction with Man Xi was evident, so the role…
Man Xi and her agent considered it a sure win.
But as news of the other roles came out, still no call came to Man Xi from the production team.
“They always save the best for last,” the agent wasn’t worried, “Let’s wait a bit longer.”
An hour later.
The super topics for the other actors were out, but there was still no news for Man Xi.
“Let’s wait a bit more,” the agent comforted Man Xi.
Two hours later, even the agent was getting restless.
He pulled out his phone and called the “Great Yong” production team to ask why the casting for Bai Xiangjun hadn’t been finalized.
“The role of Bai Xiangjun?” the production team member was surprised, “That’s been decided a long time ago.”
The agent felt his heart sink, sensing something was wrong, “But our Man Xi hasn’t received any news.”
“Man Xi? Oh,” the production team member realized what was happening and vaguely replied, “The director gave the role to someone else.”
“Who?!” the agent almost shrieked.
The next second, he realized his attitude was inappropriate and tried to repair it, “Teacher, didn’t the director praise Man Xi for her excellent spear skills last time? Why did he suddenly change the candidate? Who is it?”
He had thought of all the auditioning artists’ names, unable to come up with anyone who could outshine Man Xi.
Popularity, acting skills, looks.
She was second to none.
Not to mention she had specifically learned spearplay for the role.
The production team member gave a precise reply to Man Xi’s side, “Yan Lu.”
“Yan Lu? How could it be her?!” After hanging up the phone, the agent turned to the two people in the office, “How could she possibly get the role of Bai Xiangjun?”
With her acting skills, her scandals?
Man Xi’s smile gradually faded away as she clenched her teeth, “She must have spread her legs wide.”
Everyone knew about Yan Lu’s scandals.
