Chapter 195 - Getting The Female Lead Role
"I like everything about you and don't mention that woman again." Fu Hua said as his tone sounded cold.
Jia Li didn't observe that his tone was cold as she was more excited with the fact that he said he liked everything about her.
She glanced at him with a smile as she tried to confirm if he meant his words, "Really? Do you like my body?"
Jia Li was insecure because she wasn't slim like a model but she wasn't fat either. She only had a little more flesh from the normal size 8.
She has always been bothered whenever she thought about his ex-girlfriend. They were two different worlds apart and she was worried he wouldn't like her body.
"I mean it. I don't just like your body, I like you as well." Fu Hua confessed. Then it just dawned on him that he just confessed his true feelings to her without knowing.
Jia Li's eyes widened in surprise as a smile slowly appeared on her face.
"You said you like me? Do you mean it?" Jia Li asked as she tried to get confirmation because she felt it was surreal.
Fu Hua refused to reply to her. He took out his hand from her pants and pushed her head to lay on his chest.
Jia Li was stubborn and immediately raised her head again to ask the same question with curiosity.
"Fu Hua, do you like me?" She asked.
Fu Hua pushed her head back on his chest and threatened her. "If you continue to disturb me, I will assume that you have enough strength for one round tonight."
His threat worked because Jia Li laid on his chest and didn't disturb him again.
Fu Hua smiled and caressed her hair.
"Sleep." He whispered before kissing her hair.
The next morning, they had breakfast together before Fu Hua left for work. He gave her an assignment to do before he comes back from work.
He had received a call from his assistant that an important client had contacted him.
The truth about the matter is that Grandfather Fu brought the wife of the president, the first lady as a client to Fu Hua and that was his present to him, for his great-grandchild.
Since the first Lady of Country X was FJ's client, she was a VVIP that Fu Hua had to handle by himself.
The result of their meeting was that the First Lady ordered a lot of dresses she liked before requesting for something unique to be tailored just for her.
With the first Lady ordering a lot of their clothes and other products like their bags and shoes which were not made available like their dresses, it was sure to give FJ a high boost. Because the First Lady would be wearing their products to many functions and that will be enough exposure again.
Back at the Fu house, Fu Meixu received a call from her agency to discuss a collaboration with a perfume company.
Thinking it was only just an ambassadorship deal, Fu Meixu went to her agency to meet with her Big Boss and her manager.
Fu Meixu discovered that she not only got an ambassadorship deal but also got the main female lead role for the movie, 'The filmmaker'. That was the same movie she wanted to snatch from Zhi Ruo.
'My Grandfather is really capable.' Fu Meixu thought as she smiled to herself.
"This role was meant for Zhi Ruo and the director had formally discussed this with us, so how did the table turn around? Meixu, did you do anything?" The Boss of her agency asked as he stared keenly at her.
Fu Meixu smiled sweetly and said to him, "I guess they found a lot of potential in me and thought they made a mistake before or maybe I'm just capable."
Her words were enough for anyone to know that she disliked Zhi Ruo.
Her manager exchanged glances with the Boss before they both fixed their gazes on her.
Fu Meixu glanced at them before asking, "It's something wrong?"
"Nothing. You can go back and wait for a while. Your manager will ask you to come over when we are ready to sign the two contracts." The Boss said.
"Thank you, Boss." Fu Meixu said before leaving with her manager.
"Meixu, you are really capable. You managed to snatch a big role from Zhi Ruo for such an important movie." Her manager said to her in wonder.
"It's all thanks to my cousin-sister-in-law. It looks like I have to put more effort into our relationship." Fu Meixu said with a happy smile before walking away.
She knew she wouldn't have gotten this role on her own because it has already been given to Zhi Ruo although the contract has not yet been signed.
Because of her relationship with Jia Li, Grandfather Fu considered it and issued a command and that's how she got the role.
All these were thanks to Jia Li. And now, she was thinking of how to improve her relationship with Jia Li because of the benefits she was getting.
3 hours later, Fu Meixu was holding the two contracts for the different collaborations she just signed. One was for the movie and the other one was for the perfume deal.
Fu Meixu was all smiles after she stepped out of the office with her manager. She took her time making her way to her manager's office, as she watched the newbies spare glances at her from her peripheral view.
"Why don't you leave, go and rest and prepare for the filming." Her manager said to her.
"I will leave in a bit, I just want to meet someone before I leave." Fu Meixu replied with a mysterious smile.
Her manager couldn't guess what she was thinking and so let her be.
After a while, Fu Meixu received a notification from her phone. She opened the messages and read the short text.
She smiled and got up and took her bag with her.
"I'm leaving." She said to her manager before leaving.
Since the person she has long been waiting for has arrived, of course, she had to leave....
