Chapter 199: Praising Another Man Song Ci left the bathroom and quickly gave Lu Gan a video call.
Lu Gan was leaning against the bed and reading a book. Suddenly, his phone rang. When he saw it was Song Ci, he immediately answered.
“Are you done for the day?”
Song Ci adjusted her position so her face would be in better view.
“Yes. What are you doing?”
“I’m reading a book.”
“About what?”
Lu Gan looked at the title of the book.
“A brief history of humanity.”
“It sounds very deep and complicated… Hubby, you’re such a cultured man!”
Lu Gan laughed.
“Stop teasing me. I’m not reading it anymore.”
Song Ci asked despite knowing the answer, “Why not?”
Lu Gan answered calmly, “Because talking to my wife is more important.”
Those words made Song Ci really happy. She smiled sweetly and continued to chat with Lu Gan for a while before saying, “I have something to ask you.”
“What is it?”
“Um… It’s about Sunlight Media. Can I make some decisions?”
Lu Gan did not expect Song Ci to ask such a question. Nonetheless, he replied, “Of course. Sunlight Media was originally a gift for you.”
Song Ci was surprised.
“A gift for me?”
“Yes. Why else would I want it?’
Originally, Lu Gan was just acting as if he had fallen madly in love with Song Ci. Since she was an actress, he demanded Sunlight Media for her. Of course, he had no plans of just giving her the company. He simply needed it to keep her under control, like a form of reward if she behaved appropriately.
However, as the couple spent more time together, Lu Gan’s thoughts began to change. Now, he was willing to give her anything.
Song Ci had never taken Lu Gan’s words regarding Sunlight Media seriously. Even though it was only a subsidiary company, it still had connections with Lu Corporation. Sunlight Media’s market value was not low. Thus, Song Ci felt a little uncomfortable.
“I don’t want it. That’s too much for a gift.”
Lu Gan smiled and said, “We’re a couple. Why would you think that way?”
Song Ci replied worriedly, “I’m only an actress. I don’t know how to manage a company. What if it goes bankrupt? I can’t let that happen!”
Lu Gan chuckled.
“Don’t worry. Your husband is rich. As long as you’re interested, I can keep investing for you.”
Song Ci fell silent. Was Lu Gan actually lovesick?!
Lu Gan comforted her, “There are professional managers. You just need to sit back and collect the money. If anything goes wrong, I’ll take care of it for you.”
Those words made Song Ci heave a sigh of relief. Managing a company was really not her field of expertise. Since that was settled, she proceeded to ask, “Can I get the company to sign an artist?”
“Who do you want to sign? A man or a woman?”
“He’s an extra in our production team. I think he has excellent acting skills. Moreover, he’s quite handsome and has a good temperament. At the moment, the company he’s under doesn’t have many resources. Hence, he’s still stuck being an extra even after seven years. Since he has potential, I want to sign him under our company.”
After hearing Song Ci’s praises, Lu Gan snorted coldly.
“Do you think it’s appropriate to praise a man like that in front of me?”
Song Ci was amused.
“I’m simply telling you the details. Are you jealous again?”
“You’ve never praised me like that! Hmph! I’m not signing him.”
Song Ci did not know whether to laugh or cry. She said softly, “Why are you so cute? I really want to be by your side now.”
Lu Gan said sarcastically, “Why are you still talking to me? Go look for that talented man!”
Song Ci hurriedly coaxed, “He still can’t be compared to you. If you decide to act, you’ll definitely become famous! Thank you for giving other actors a chance.”
