Chapter 556: Chapter 498 Shipping
However, looking at the compliments online, Vivian felt a little guilty. After all, it was not her who saved the woman. She just did what she could.
Therefore, she complained about what Arno did. She thought he shouldn’t have brought the old woman here today.
The answer Vivian got surprised her. "You don’t have to be modest. You deserve it.
"You did a great job."
Looking at the news online, Melissa nodded with satisfaction. Just now, she confirmed the authenticity of the news with Vivian’s agent. Then Melissa let the company’s Public Relations Department keep the trending topic and maintain Vivian’s popularity for a while.
Someone knocked on the office door. Melissa looked up. "Come in."
It was Jaylin. He nodded politely at Melissa.
"What’s wrong?" Melissa did not expect Jaylin to come and was a little surprised.
"My agent said that there are a few scripts for me to choose from. He is now training his new entertainer, so I’m here to ask for your opinion." Jaylin’s deep gaze fell on Melissa.
Hearing Jaylin say this, Melissa realized that Jaylin was popular right now, and it was perfect timing to let Jaylin start a new play.
Just as Melissa got up, she caught a glimpse of the computer screen and paused.
"Is there a problem?" Jaylin looked at Melissa and asked in confusion.
Melissa shook her head and picked up a stack of scripts from the bookshelf. However, she did not give them to Jaylin.
"These won’t do."
Melissa briefly looked at the scripts and found that the characters were similar to the character that Jaylin had played last time. Though it was good to create a new persona with Jaylin’s current popularity, it would also limit Jaylin’s path.
"Jaylin, do you want to play the same role as the last one?"
Jaylin shook his head without hesitation. As the best actor, he should challenge himself ceaselessly.
"I’ve decided to customize a TV series," Melissa said.
"For me?"
"Partly." Melissa clapped her hands and let Jaylin take a look at the news about Vivian on her computer.
"You will be the male lead, and Vivian will be the female lead."
Though Jaylin saw the trending topic about Vivian today, he did not take it seriously.
Jaylin was somehow intrigued when he saw so much praise from the news media.
But he thought of something else.
"It’ll be a positive idol drama. Now that Vivian is so popular, such publicity suits you both." After saying that, Melissa looked up, yet she saw Jaylin’s hesitant expression.
"Is there a problem?" asked Melissa.
Jaylin came to his senses and asked softly, "Can you change the male lead? I..."
Vivian suddenly confessed her love to him the last time, which made things awkward between them. And now, they were about to participate in the same drama. Jaylin felt that before Vivian sorted things out herself, they should keep their distance.
Jaylin was upset when he thought of Vivian’s frustrated appearance that day. She was hurt, but she still pretended to be strong.
"You two have earned countless shippers since last time. They want to see you two interact again," Melissa said lightly.
"Well..." Jaylin frowned slightly.
"We should take advantage of the popularity of you and Vivian right now. Your shipping will only bring us good."
The overlapping of persona could be a bit tiresome, but this shipping wouldn’t. On the contrary, it would be a publicity stunt.
Jaylin knew clearly about these. He had no choice and could only agree.
"Good. I will send you the script in a few days." Melissa nodded.
Jaylin then turned and left the office. He glanced at his Timeline and found that Vivian had posted a photo of the filming.
"Mr. Segar!"
At this moment, Jaylin’s agent’s voice from behind interrupted his daze.
"What script did you choose?" Seeing that Jaylin was empty-handed, his agent could not help but ask.
"Melissa said that she would customize a drama." Jaylin put his phone back into his pocket and replied calmly.
...
"What did you say?"
Vivian looked at her agent in surprise. She wondered if she had heard it wrongly.
"What’s wrong? You’re being praised so much that your hearing is affected?"
Her agent chuckled. "Our company has decided to promote you. Taking advantage of your current popularity, we have got you several commercials and variety shows. You will be busy for a while."
Vivian blinked, feeling a little flattered. The surprise came all too soon.
In fact, she had a lot of resources before, but it was nothing compared to now. Vivian knew that this was the opportunity for her to thrive.
The agent flipped through the schedule. "Our company will also customize a TV series for you. You’ll be the female lead."
"Who will be the male lead? Is it settled yet?" Vivian asked curiously.
The agent’s reply made Vivian’s smile stiffen.
"Yes. You know him. It’s Mr. Segar."
"What?" Vivian only felt her heart beating wildly.
"Mr. Segar. You guys have worked together before," the agent repeated.
Vivian bit her lower lip and slowly sat back on the sofa.
She thought they might not have any contact since her last confession was rejected. But now they had a chance to work together again.
Vivian lowered her eyes; her fingers could not help but twist the hem of her clothes. In fact, she was indeed very happy.
Because she still had feelings for Jaylin. She would stare blankly at Jaylin’s profile on Line every day, but she did not dare to text him. She was afraid that it would make things between them worse.
After all, they worked in the same company. They would come across each other eventually.
Now they had the chance to work together again. But other than being happy, Vivian was somehow overwhelmed.
"What is it? You don’t look so happy."
The agent asked when she saw Vivian’s frustrated expression.
"No. I want to cooperate with him again. I’m just worried that things might be awkward..." Vivian said in a low voice.
"Awkward? The two of you have already cooperated once. Things won’t be awkward." The agent patted Vivian on the shoulder.
"You don’t understand..." Vivian pursed her lips and turned back. The expression on her face was a bit meaningful.
She had passionately confessed her love to him, but he only treated her as his little sister.
Vivian suddenly felt a little emotional. Some TV shows looked ridiculous but were definitely based on real events.
"Relax. You did well when you first cooperated with Mr. Segar. Besides, your shipping went viral. Of course, the company will use it as a publicity stunt to promote you again."
The agent encouraged Vivian. She had been Vivian’s agent all along, so she knew Vivian quite well.
"Hope so!" Hearing this, Vivian straightened her back and cheered herself on in her heart.
