“I’m sure. Because I already have somewhere I want to go,” Wu Jiaheng said.

Xiao Xi understood. He wanted to be in Nirvana Entertainment.

She smiled. “I welcome you, but I don’t know what President Su’s thoughts are.”

“I’m worried that she won’t agree to my request,” Wu Jiaheng said. “I want to spend more time with the child and half my workload. It doesn’t matter if my share of profits is lower.”

Xiao Xi couldn’t make the decision. She just prayed that Su Bei would agree to his request.

Wu Jiaheng went to Su Bei’s office.

“How’s Lil’ Hua’s condition now?” Su Bei asked.

“Xiao Xi is helping me take care of her now. I’ve already informed my mother to come and help me take care of Lil’ Hua,” Wu Jiaheng said. “President Su, I want to sign a contract with Nirvana Entertainment, but I want to reduce my workload. I wonder if you can make an exception for me?”

Su Bei had long thought of signing him after this matter was resolved.

Wu Jiaheng was an actor. He did not have as many fans as other popular actors, but he had always been steady and was compatible with Nirvana Entertainment.

“Sure. Go look for Yue Ze and ask him to assign you an agent. Act well in the future. Nirvana Entertainment will arrange jobs for you according to your personal characteristics. We won’t casually build you a persona,” Su Bei said with a smile.

“A smaller share is fine too,” Wu Jiaheng quickly said.

Su Bei laughed. “Of course, we’ll do it according to the rules of the industry. You’re my friend. While I won’t give you many advantages, I won’t take advantage of you either.”

Since she was so magnanimous, it was not appropriate for Wu Jiaheng to insist.

Yue Ze liked to work with steady people and immediately welcomed him.

“Since you’re planning to reduce your workload, why don’t you go with Xiao Xi first? She’s just become a full-time employee and doesn’t have any artistes on hand yet,” Yue Ze said.

Wu Jiaheng was already familiar with Xiao Xi. He nodded and said, “Very well.”

Xiao Xi had no objections.

After signing the contract, Wu Jiaheng said, “Miss Xiao Xi…”

“Mr. Wu, you can just call me by my name. The people here at Nirvana Entertainment are not so polite.” After saying that, Xiao Xi realized that she had not changed her address and could not help but laugh.

Wu Jiaheng smiled. “Lil’ Hua says that she wishes to have you over for dinner tonight.”

Actually, Lil’ Hua was afraid of strangers and didn’t say much. Obviously, these words weren’t said by Lil’ Hua.

Wu Jiaheng was indeed very grateful for her help during this period of time, so he wanted to thank her.

Xiao Xi knew what was going on and nodded. “Okay.”

Wu Jiaheng had already invited Mrs. Wu over.

Mrs. Wu was a very loving and kind old lady. She had heard from Wu Jiaheng that Xiao Xi had helped a lot, so she made a large table of dishes and warmly welcomed her in.

She was not arrogant despite her son being a big star. She did not act all high and mighty because of it. Instead, she was more amiable than ordinary people.

Xiao Xi was not so nervous anymore.

After dinner, she played with Lil’ Hua for a while before leaving.

Mrs. Wu nudged her son. “Go send Xiao Xi off.”

“It’s alright. Jiaheng, you should stay and take care of Lil’ Hua. I’m fine leaving by myself.”

Wu Jiaheng could only stop.

Mrs. Wu said regretfully, “Why are you so ignorant? I think she’s a good woman. Don’t miss out on her.”

“Mom, I just got divorced. I haven’t thought about these things yet.”

Moreover, he had Lil’ Hua with him after his divorce. How could he burden Xi Xi?

Mrs. Wu said, “Your previous marriage only exists in name. If it weren’t for Lil’ Hua, how long do you think it would have lasted? Son, you should consider it carefully. Don’t make the same mistake in the future.”

Wu Jiaheng said, “Don’t say anymore, Mom. I understand.”

As Wu Jiaheng had already cleared his name, there was no need to talk about his reputation anymore. In addition, his acting skills were not bad and he was willing to work hard, so Xiao Xi quickly got him a role on a TV show.

The filming time for the TV show was four months, but most of the time, they would be filming in the city’s film studio. At night, he could go home to take care of Lil’ Hua.

Other times, when he had to go overseas, Mrs. Wu could help take care of the child.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The remuneration was also very appropriate.

Wu Jiaheng naturally agreed immediately. He had gained a new shot at life, and it filled him with hope.

Now, what he wanted to do the most was to earn a sum of money and pay off his debt to Xiao Xi. Then, he could spend more time with Lil’ Hua.

After signing the contract, Xiao Xi handed him a card.

“What’s this?” Wu Jiaheng asked.

“It’s an advance payment from the film company.”

Wu Jiaheng frowned slightly. They had just signed the contract, yet the film company had already given him an advance payment. This had never happened before.

Xiao Xi must have helped him get it.

He didn’t ask further and only said, “Then thank the producer for me. Also, I’ll return your money first.”

With this advance payment, his urgent needs were indeed resolved.

And Xiao Xi’s concern had made him feel real warmth.

“By the way, I want to give President Su something. Can you help me choose a gift for him?” Wu Jiaheng said. His mother was right. Why would he give up a future opportunity just because he had been divorced?

“What do you want to give President Su?”

“Something for a child who’s about five years old? I’m not too sure. It’s a boy.”

Xiao Xi said in surprise, “President Su is married and has a child? But he looks so young.”

“I’m not sure if it’s his child.” When Wu Jiaheng carried Gun Gun downstairs, he did not pay much attention to what was going on then because he was ready to die. Now that he thought about it, he did not have any clear memories of what happened that day.

He felt that life was precious now.

He smiled and said, “But even if it’s not his own child, it’s probably a friend or relative of his. He definitely won’t accept anything I give him. But since it’s a token of my sincerity, he won’t reject it.”

“Then I’ll go shopping with you,” Xiao Xi said.

The two of them went to the mall together. Although they had disguised themselves, a sales assistant still recognized them.

“Wu Jiaheng, is it really you?”

“Shh.” Xiao Xi made a shushing gesture. “I’m his manager. I’m here to accompany him to buy something. Please don’t make a fuss.”

“Alright, I know.” The sales assistant quickly nodded. “I just want to ask if Lil’ Hua is okay.”

“She’s doing very well now. Thank you.” Wu Jiaheng thanked her sincerely.

“Then take this toy as a gift from me to Lil’ Hua. Please accept it. I was one of the people who helped Li Hua chastise you back then. My words must have hurt you and Lil’ Hua.” The sales assistant was very serious when speaking.
