I Want a Lifetime with You novel Chapter 259

By the time Shi Wei arrived at the company, Zhou Zheng had already arrived. Because Shi Wei was worried of the paparazzi, she didn’t take Guan Jing’s car. Instead she had someone else pretend to be her and get into the car, then had the car drive around Jiang City. By the time the paparazzi realized the person in the car wasn’t Shi Wei, she had already arrived at Xinhuang.

Shi Wei followed Guan Jing into Xinhuang’s conference room. Zhou Zheng was already waiting inside.

Shi Wei immediately rushed to greet Zhou Zheng. “Good morning, Mr. Zhou!”

Zhou Zheng nodded and indicated for Shi Wei to take a seat. “Ms. Shi, it’s been a while. Have a look at this.” Zhou Zheng passed a document to Shi Wei.

Shi Wei reached out for it in curiosity. She opened it to see that it was the contract for the St. Dee endorsement deal. “Mr. Zhou, I’m surprised you already have this prepared.” Shi Wei honestly thought she was dreaming. After all, her scandals were really big deals and yet, not only did Xinhuang have their PR team take care of it, but also kept their distance from her. Shi Wei had been feeling hurt and disappointed all this while.

Zhou Zheng looked at Shi Wei and sniggered coldly to himself, but he still maintained a warm smile on his face. “Mr. Fu had me prepare this contract right round the time of the annual meeting. But Mr. Fu was quite angered by the recent issues so he held on to it temporarily.”

 

Zhou Zheng noticed Shi Wei’s face turn pale while he was speaking. “Mr. Zhou, you have to believe me. I’m not the one behind the incident. I’m already married. There’s no reason at all for me to do such a thing!” So it’s true. They’ve been keeping their distance from me because of what happened.

Now, since Zhou Zheng has brought the contract and has also promised me the role in the movie, does that mean I’m in Fu Chengyan’s good books again?

 

She then heard Zhou Zheng say, “I believe you, if not I wouldn’t be here today. Have a look through the contract, Ms. Shi. If everything’s good, then you can sign right away. As for the advertisement shootings, we’ll need to get it done these two days. It looks to me like Ms. Shi isn’t in her best state today.”

Zhou Zheng tapped the table and spoke sternly. “St. Dee is a high-end brand and Mr. Fu values it greatly. And it’s not just Mr. Fu, but the Europe side too. Even though Ms. Shi is only the model for the China region, it is still a very great opportunity for you.”

Zhou Zheng was very frank in his words. Shi Wei wasn’t too happy about it, but she had to admit what he said was right. She barely had any endorsement deals on hand and St. Dee would be one of her biggest.

“Mr. Zhou is right.” Shi Wei looked through the contract. “I don’t have any problems with the contract. As for the shooting, I’ll make sure I quickly adjust myself and won’t let you or Mr. Fu down.”

“Good.” Zhou Zheng pointed to the contract. “If there’s no other questions then go ahead and sign here. Even though you’re signed with Xinhuang and everyone is technically managed by Shengyuan, we still need to follow the rules and procedures.”

“Of course.” Shi Wei took a pen from Guan Jing and quickly signed her name before handing it to Zhou Zheng. He then signed his own name and stamped it with the company stamp. “Alright. This is done. Now let’s talk about the second matter.”

Zhou Zheng made a quick phone call and a few people entered right away. Shi Wei looked up and saw that among them were producer Qin Hong and scriptwriter Wang Shenglan. “Mr. Zhou.”

Qin Hong and Wang Shenglan walked in and took their seats. Shi Wei herself quickly shot up. “Ms. Qin, Ms. Wang! Good morning!”

Qing Hong raised an eyebrow and looked at Shi Wei in surprise. She hadn’t expected Shi Wei to be so formal. She looked over at Wang Shenglan, who merely nodded. “Good morning.”

“Alright, now that everyone’s here, let’s discuss ‘Beneath the Sky’.” Zhou Zheng was undoubtedly the leader here. He initiated the topic then handed the reigns over to Qin Hong and Wang Shenglan.

By the time Shi Wei left the conference room, she was absolutely beaming. Guan Jing too was just as excited as her. “Shi Wei, I think things are only going to get better for you from now on. These issues might actually be a blessing in disguise!”

Shi Wei gave Guan Jing the side eye and Guan Jing realized that it was too late to take back what she had said. “Hehe, I was just spouting nonsense. What are you planning to do now?”

“I’m going to go home. I’m going to make sure I look my best before we start with the advertisement shootings.” Since she was getting such a great chance, she was naturally going to make the most out of it.

“Okay. But we’ll need to make an appointment with your nutritionist. And look at your skin. You haven’t been taking good care of it, have you?”

Guan Jing looked at Shi Wei’s face. “I don’t want to nag, but the face is the most important to a woman. And even more so to a female celebrity.”

“Is it really that bad?” Shi Wei touched her face. “Well, I really haven’t been taking care of it much lately. I just haven’t been in the mood to do so.”

“Well you’re in a good mood now. Let’s go.”

Two days later, Shi Wei went to shoot the advertisements for St. Dee. No one knew who leaked the news, but by the time Shi Wei reached the shooting site, there were media and fans gathered at the place.

Shi Wei was blocked outside and couldn’t get in. It took a security team to get the situation under control and allowed Shi Wei to make it through.
