After Going Viral on a Dating Show, I'm Pampered by All-Chapter 260: Why Is Boss Si Messaging Her?

Madam Lu and He Shi obviously saw her too, and Madam Lu walked up to her and stopped, displeased with this rebellious daughter.

Ever since He Shi returned home again last time, Lu Jiao had hardly been at home.

"Jiaojiao, even if you’ve gone wild outside, don’t forget where your home is, and who gave you the money to start your company."

"Mom, I... I’ve just been too busy lately." Lu Jiao’s hands, hanging at her sides, couldn’t help but clench into fists, she felt extremely resentful inside.

Since the adoption of that bastard, her status at home had simply diminished to nothing. In the past, Madam Lu would have been merely concerned about her not coming home for days, rather than warning her like this!

"Do you have eyes only for me?" Madam Lu frowned, feeling more and more that Jiaojiao was clueless.

No wonder He Shi preferred their adopted son, who sweetly called out "Dad" and even when he occasionally threw tantrums, he knew his limits.

"Dad, little brother." Lu Jiao could only bear her humiliation and look at the two behind her.

"Hmm." He Shi was also very cold, no one would be delighted with a daughter produced by his wife’s infidelity, especially not when Lu Jiao had never taken him seriously before.

Only then did Madam Lu walk past Lu Jiao, arm in arm with her husband, and she took the initiative to suggest, "Husband, let’s take our son out to eat today."

"Alright, but tonight I have to go back to accompany Dad." He Shi responded softly; ever since he compromised and returned with Madam Lu, he had received the respect he deserved.

His father was no longer a source of shame for the Lu family, and he could visit him anytime.

He Shi was very clear that this was because the Lu family needed him, and Madam Lu must have feelings for him, but such feelings were not genuine enough.

"Hmm, we’ll take our son with us." Smiling, Madam Lu spoke up; she had spent the first half of her life recklessly, and it was time to settle down for the latter half.

The day He Shi threatened divorce had indeed frightened her; she could find another husband, but it would be difficult to find someone like He Shi, who did not come for the Lu family’s fortune.

"Mom, Dad, I want to eat fish."

"Okay, we’ll order it for you later."

The happy family image of the three of them pained Lu Jiao who stood behind— that was supposed to be hers!

Meng Jiahe had recently been following a talent show featuring male group contestants from their own agency, and she was in a state of pure amusement, wondering how she had never noticed Jiang Chaoyuan at the company.

"Sang Qiao, I think even if he doesn’t debut from the variety show, he’ll gain a bunch of fans for his comedic sense. He’s really always thinking about how to speak his mind and offend people."

"I think he can debut, as long as he takes it seriously," said Sang Qiao, who also occasionally watched; Jiang Chaoyuan’s attitude of deliberately throwing performances was subtle yet noticeable.

But she had gone through all of Jiang Chaoyuan’s information, she understood him too well.

Being able to dance a girl group’s choreography in a male talent show was obviously intentional; in Jiang Chaoyuan’s profile, he was capable of many styles of dance with excellent results.

"He..." Meng Jiahe suddenly thought of Fu Xing, she had been so confident in him at first, even trying every means to promote him, but later... not only did he become famous and leave, but his character also disappointed her.

So recently, even when the talent at Rose Entertainment was not particularly outstanding, she felt no sense of crisis, only a feeling of stability.

While Meng Jiahe was lost in her thoughts, a text message suddenly popped up on her phone, marked as from Si Chenli, and it startled her so much she almost dropped her phone.

Why would Boss Si send her a message?

This contact had been lying in her list without ever being used.

Meng Jiahe had just opened the text message to see the first line read, "The contents of this message must be kept absolutely secret, don’t tell a second person," followed by instructions from the Si Group, asking her to find an opportunity to go there.

Her face showed difficulty, as she really couldn’t think of any reason why the boss would want to see her. Should she really not tell Sang Qiao?

"What’s wrong?" Sang Qiao noticed the sudden change in Meng Jiahe’s expression and asked, puzzled.

"...It’s nothing." Meng Jiahe, after a fierce internal struggle, decided to first go see what Boss Si wanted from her.

She steeled herself, "Oh, right, Qiaoqiao, I just remembered something came up at home, I’m going to head back first."

"Alright, go ahead." Although Sang Qiao sensed something was off, she did not inquire further.

Just from Meng Jiahe and Shangguan Yuan’s daily bickering in the company and even scaring a client’s child to tears, she somewhat understood that Ah He had private matters she temporarily couldn’t share.

Boy group variety show director: [Miss Sang Qiao, you asked me to keep an eye out for occasional invitations to our variety show. We just have a spot for a special guest, do you want to come?]

Sang Qiao, seeing the message from the director she had added and noted before, didn’t hesitate to type back a reply.

Qiaoqiao is sleepy: [I’ll come, arrange it for me.]

After all, it was about time Jiang Chaoyuan was entering the second round, and it was also time to check on his post, so he wouldn’t overly indulge himself.

Boy group variety show director: [Okay, I will send the arrangements to your phone shortly.]

Qiaoqiao is sleepy: [Hmm, thank you.]

"Knock knock!"

"Come in."

Liao Liao entered with a worried look on her face, like that of a fussy old mother, "Sister Qiao, I’ve also watched Chaoyuan’s performance on the variety show recently. His talent definitely extends beyond this; the kid is deliberately muddying the waters."

Liao Liao could be considered Jiang Chaoyuan’s mom-fan, and seeing the kid’s lackluster performance on the variety show made her anxious.

She was fearful Sister Qiao might think that was all Jiang Chaoyuan was capable of, and therefore give up on him.

"I know, I’m going on the variety show myself in a few days to give him some guidance," Sang Qiao’s voice was calm as her gaze rested on the dossier on the computer screen. freewebnσvel.cøm

"Good, good, he needs some pressure, or else he won’t know the importance of exerting effort."

Liao Liao breathed a sigh of relief inside, as long as Sister Qiao didn’t give up on him, it was good.

"Liao Liao, Jiang Chaoyuan does have talent, but that shouldn’t be a reason for you to cover for him."

Sang Qiao tapped her fingertips lightly on the desk, her expression remained normal, as if she’d just casually mentioned it.

Liao Liao’s body jolted, understanding that Sister Qiao intended to settle accounts after autumn, "Sister Qiao is right, on the matter of Jiang Chaoyuan, I really didn’t handle it well, and I accept whatever punishment the company gives."

"Considering that you are also thinking of the company’s interests, I’ll let it go this time, but if you reoffend and it affects the company, I’ll directly handle it by firing you."

Sang Qiao remembered that Liao Liao had started with the company from the beginning, and had done a lot for the company; moreover, this time, Jiang Chaoyuan’s incident was also for the purpose of profit-making for the company.

So she didn’t really punish her, not wanting to dishearten an old employee, but a warning was still necessary.

Jiang Chaoyuan’s willful behavior was also not made public; otherwise, the consequences would have been severe.

"Thank you, Sister Qiao, I promise there won’t be a next time!" Liao Liao was in a panic inside.

How could she dare to have a next time; this time had already scared her enough to go several days without eating. If Jiang Chaoyuan didn’t show some drive, all the pressure she had shouldered for him would have been in vain.
