"Yang Jing, I'm not sure how many more years of glory Jennie will have, but...if you continue to go against her, then you will only be able to enjoy these next few days..." the show director couldn't help but stick up for Jennie.

"With Jennie's status, it is definitely hard for her to get into a top agency since the industry is so competitive, but...even Momo can't say that Jennie isn't qualified. Don't you think, as a small manager, you are thinking too highly of yourself?"

Yang Jing gave a deep and unhappy look at the show director; he was getting a bit out of line.

Even if he was friends with Momo, how could he stick his nose into their business?

"Don't worry. I've said these words because I am certain...there is no way Jennie can join Cheng Tian!"

The show director felt Yang Jing was being overly confident and pretentious. Even if she was Momo's right-hand woman, in the end, Momo was the CEO. No wonder Momo went ahead and signed Jennie without letting her know. It seemed, there was going to a be good show to watch.

"Oh that's right, I am friends with your CEO, so I am reasonably polite to you, but from now on...as long as it is one of my shows, I don't want to see your face; I don't want to annoy each other. Regarding this, I will speak to President Momo myself."

As for Qin Lu...

The fact that she had brought her uncle to help her snatch the opening, he had a feeling it would make an interesting news headline...Would Kim Taehyung be satisfied with him doing that?

...

On the way home, Jennie leaned comfortably on Taehyung. It seemed no other embrace in this world could make her feel more safe and at ease.

In regards to how Jennie had acted in front of the show director, Taehyung was quite satisfied. It seemed Jennie had seriously taken their relationship into consideration and didn't merely say she would.

"Momo wanted me to teach Yang Jing a lesson, but instead, I made her even more arrogant..."

"I'm sure someone like Momo would have predicted this outcome and actually expected you to inflate her ego," Taehyung said gently. "We often do things like this to teach our staff a lesson. Whenever they've gone too far, this is the only effective method to use on them."

Jennie smiled and responded, "This method makes sense."

When you are trying to persuade someone, no method is faster and more memorable than making them suffer a fall.

"Are you tired?"

"I'm OK. Back when I was in France, I spent a record-breaking 12 hours repeatedly changing clothes." Jennie wrapped her arms around Taehyung's waist and whispered in his ear, "Can't you tell I just want you to dote on me?"

Taehyung let out a gentle laugh and subconsciously hugged her tighter.

After arriving home, the couple had a quick shower and headed to bed. Taehyung watched TV with Jennie. However, as the words 'Mini-jennie' appeared on screen one time after another, Taehyung's eyebrows became more than slightly twisted, "This Ningning has been quite active on screen. Seems Star Age has been promoting her so she can go on variety shows."

"But I can't do something to her just because of the words 'Mini-jennie'" Jennie responded calmly, "If I do, people will say I am petty for getting worked up over a nickname. Above all, Ningning is only 16-years-old. In the public's eyes, she is only a child and should be taken care of gently."

"Don't tell me she still considers herself small..."

"Ting, don't get involved in this. I'm sure Momo is more uncomfortable with this behavior than you, that's why she arranged a grand contract signing ceremony. I think part of her intention is to remind Star Age not to go too far. By utilizing her team, Momo can help me save a lot of energy. For someone like Ningning that can't even be considered a proper opponent...I don't want to waste time on her, she's too small..."

"Her age may be small, but her methods...aren't small at all," Taehyung assessed.

Naturally, he didn't need to step in, but... Ningning should not think that after riding on Jennie's coattail she didn't need to face the consequences. Although Star Age's intention was for Ningning to surpass the original, they would need to ask for the approval of Jennie's fans first. So, Taehyung had a thought, although Jennie had signed with Cheng Tian, behind her, he would still provide her with a strong backing - especially when it came to managing her fans.

A professional cohesive fan club should be able to handle big matters.

And the matter Taehyung was most precautious about was the fact that Ningning resembled Jennie...

If Momo wasn't going to make a move, he wouldn't have the patience to continue waiting!

Next morning. The news of Qin Lu bringing her uncle to snatch the opening was exposed. Of course, this was a joke in itself; she was unhappy that Jennie had landed the position out nowhere...

...but anyone that had seen the show would have realized, Jennie's ability and professionalism...was something Qin Lu couldn't compare to at all.

No one expected she would cause such a fuss backstage...

Of course, the 'big-shot' actor mentioned was also ridiculed. No one imagined a highly respected senior in the film and television industry would suppress someone because of his niece. So what if they managed to snatch the opening? Weren't they destroyed by gossip in the end?

Yang Jing thought this incident was created by Jennie behind the scenes. After all, she was the type of person to insist on seeking revenge. So, she couldn't help but sneer, "Jennie is sure narrow-minded, she won't even let go of such a small matter..."

At this moment, they were sitting in the meeting room waiting for their meeting to start. Sehun overheard Yang Jing's whispers and laughed inside. How could she talk about Jennie and not consider that she is exactly the same?

"I also watched last night's show, Jennie's performance was indeed so good there are no words to describe it."

"So are you regretting that you agreed to help me prevent Jennie from joining Cheng Tian?"

"That is already in the past," Sehun said as he twirled the pen between his fingers. "If you have time, you should spend it on training some newcomers. That is a better challenge for Jennie...Haven't you considered what would happen if Jennie was to sign with a better company? By going against her like this, aren't you afraid they will make you suffer?"

"Some things...once they are done, you can't turn back," Yang Jing lowered her head with mixed emotions. She had never expected Jennie would rise up so quickly and be so difficult to control and suppress. Not only had she gotten herself in a situation she couldn't turn back from, she had also met an opponent skilled in scheming.

This made her extremely excited; she would definitely challenge Jennie to the death.

"There are times when I just don't understand you," Sehun shook his head.

"At least I'm not as fake as you."

While the two were talking, Momo entered the meeting room with her secretary. She also brought in someone they had never imagined, "Chanyeol, sit..."

Park Chanyeol? Hearing this name, Yang Jing and Sehun felt slightly guilty...

Who would have thought, Momo would actually invite this person back. Why?

Of course, the thing they least expected was yet to be revealed.
