My crush wants to be my sugar daddy.

Chapter 131 A Special Existence

Jiang Haochen hadn't slept all night. After the excitement wore off, he felt a bit sleepy, but he was still waiting for Chi Yuan's phone.

After thinking about it, he didn't go to the rented house or even his temporary office, but instead went to the RV where Chi Yuan was filming.

Xiao Zhao only found out from Chi Yuan why he had been blocked: Jiang Zong had seen his random messages. As he was packing his things, he turned around and saw Jiang Zong standing behind him. He was so scared that his voice trembled: "Jiang... Jiang Zong."

Jiang Haochen nodded calmly.

Xiao Zhao: "Is there something you need?"

Jiang Haochen glanced at the recliner next to him and said, "I'm a little sleepy, can I borrow Chi Yuan's recliner for a while?"

Xiao Zhao quickly said, "Why don't you just get on the bus and sleep there? There's a bed on the bus."

Once I get on the bus, will Chi Yuan still be able to see me?

Jiang Haochen refused: "No, it wouldn't look good if word got out."

Xiao Zhao: "That's true, then I'll get you a blanket."

I almost forgot, the relationship between President Jiang and Brother Chi is not to be revealed to outsiders, so sleeping in the car is indeed inappropriate.

Jiang Haochen was about to lie down with the blanket when his phone rang.

The screen was too blurry, and the outdoor light was too bright, so Jiang Haochen didn't even see the caller ID before answering the phone: "Hello, who is this?"

There was an eerie silence on the other end of the phone.

Jiang Haochen was extremely sleepy and impatiently said "hello" again. Just as he was about to hang up, there was finally a sound on the other end.

"it's me."

Jiang Haochen was taken aback: "It's you."

"Ah Chen, did you delete my number?" Xie Lingzhou asked, somewhat hurt.

Jiang Haochen explained, "No, I didn't notice just now."

Xie Lingzhou: "It's okay. I was so determined to go abroad back then, it's normal for you to be angry and delete it."

Jiang Haochen rubbed his temples and asked directly, "You... is there something you need on your call?"

There was another strange pause on the other end of the phone before he said, "When I signed with Tianyu, Cui Dong promised to give me three top-tier endorsements."

Jiang Haochen: "Is it related to endorsements? The endorsement thing has always been Cui..."

Before Jiang Haochen could finish speaking, Xie Lingzhou interrupted, saying in one breath, "One of my endorsements was snatched away. I remember you hate it the most for using back channels to grab resources, I didn't expect Tianyu to have something like this."

Jiang Haochen frowned: "Who stole your resources? Since Cui Dong agreed to endorse you, then..."

Xie Lingzhou: "I asked Cui Dong, and Cui Dong told me to ask you."

Jiang Haochen's sleepy eyes snapped open: "You mean the rice phone?"

"Yes." Xie Lingzhou's voice carried a hint of grievance, which was not an act but a genuine feeling of grievance.

If Cui Dong had taken the endorsement, even if he breached the contract and gave it to someone else, he wouldn't be so upset. But unfortunately, that person was Jiang Haochen.

How could Jiang Haochen give his things to someone else?

"Really? Brother Chi got another endorsement? And it's for Xiaomi phones? Okay, they'll deliver the phone over in a bit, I'll go to the door to pick it up."

Xiao Zhao's voice reached Jiang Haochen's ears at just the right moment.

If Xiao Zhao knows, then Chi Yuan also knows.

Jiang Haochen: "I'll have the Ministry of Commerce find you another spokesperson of the same caliber."

Xie Lingzhou: "Achen, you know me. I don't want other people's things, but others can't take my things. I only want my own endorsement."

Jiang Haochen had a headache. Xie Lingzhou used to be like that, and he used to find him cute and simple-minded. Now, however, he found it quite troublesome to have such an inflexible subordinate.

Jiang Haochen: "I'm a bit busy right now, I'll have Assistant Chen handle this."

Xie Lingzhou: "Okay, I'll wait for your answer."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Haochen immediately made a call to Assistant Chen.

When Assistant Chen saw that it was President Jiang calling, he answered and said, "Flash Delivery has already picked up the phone."

Jiang Haochen: "Oh, I see. There's one more thing."

Assistant Chen: "Please go ahead."

Jiang Haochen: "Did you snatch the phone endorsement deal for Chi Yuan from Xie Lingzhou?"

Assistant Chen was taken aback. He had asked the Ministry of Commerce if they had any mobile phone endorsements, and they had said yes, so he had just taken it without asking any further questions. "I need to verify this with the Ministry of Commerce."

Jiang Haochen: "Okay, you handle it."

Assistant Chen: "If it really is Xie Lingzhou's endorsement, then what about Mr. Chi..."

Jiang Haochen: "The person I asked you to handle wasn't Chi Yuan."

Assistant Chen: "Understood, I'll take care of it right away."

Jiang Haochen hung up the phone and subconsciously wanted to put it away, but after thinking about it, he put the broken-screen phone on the folding table next to the recliner.

Then he wrapped himself in a blanket and fell asleep on the recliner.

Chi Yuan had no idea how much effort Jiang Haochen had put into getting him to give her a phone; he was focused on filming in front of the camera.

Director Yang is very strict. If something is not right, it has to be reshot. It's considered fast if a scene is shot three times.

If the filming progresses slowly, it will burn the producer's money. Mr. Jiang has argued with Director Yang about this several times.

Chi Yuan is an actor and can't argue with the director, but he also doesn't want to put Mr. Jiang in a difficult position, so he can only try his best to act better and have fewer takes, so that the progress can be faster and more money can be saved.

"Okay, we've passed this take. Take a 20-minute break."

Finally, I can rest.

Chi Yuan was extremely thirsty, so he took the water Xiao Zhao handed him and drank a couple of sips. Then he heard Xiao Zhao excitedly announcing, "Sister Ran said that Dami Mobile wants to cooperate with us."

Upon hearing about the endorsement deal, Chi Yuan was naturally delighted: "Really?"

Xiao Zhao: "Yeah, they'll send over their latest phone for us to try out soon. Oh, by the way..."

Xiao Zhao glanced in the director's direction and whispered, "Sister Ran said you should perform well these next few days, go to President Jiang's place less often, and ask for leave to go out and film GG later, then the director won't be too angry."

Chi Yuan nodded: "I understand."

As they were talking, the two returned to the rest area, where Chi Yuan immediately spotted Jiang Haochen fast asleep on a recliner.

He glanced at Xiao Zhao.

Xiao Zhao lowered his voice and said, "President Jiang didn't seem to sleep well last night. He said he wanted to lie down here for a while."

They must be too busy.

He noticed this morning that Mr. Jiang had faint dark circles under his eyes.

Chi Yuan tiptoed over and saw that most of the blanket on Mr. Jiang's body had slipped off, so he bent down to help him straighten it.

He stared at Mr. Jiang's sleeping face for a while, and a tenderness suddenly flashed in his eyes.

In such a large film set, with so many actors, so many chairs, and so many blankets, Mr. Jiang came here alone, slept in his chair, and covered himself with his blanket.

This special feeling gave Chi Yuan an unusual sense of satisfaction.

It was as if, in this area, Mr. Yu Jiang considered himself the closest person to him.

Just thinking about it made even the wind seem gentle.

-

Xie Lingzhou, on the other hand, felt the complete opposite.

Assistant Chen is a meticulous person. After receiving President Jiang's call, he immediately went to the Business Department to understand the situation and then went directly to Xie Lingzhou.

Assistant Chen: "Mr. Xie, when I took the endorsement deal with Dami Mobile from the Ministry of Commerce, Dami Mobile had not yet signed an endorsement contract with you."

Xie Lingzhou stared coldly at Assistant Chen: "I've already spoken to the Ministry of Commerce."

Assistant Chen: "Just making a greeting isn't legally binding. Ultimately, who gets the endorsement depends on the contract."

Xie Lingzhou: "Are you really Jiang Haochen's assistant?"

Assistant Chen raised an eyebrow, his condescending tone carrying a hidden meaning: "Yes."

He was Jiang Haochen's assistant, but Xie Lingzhou only joined Jiang Haochen's team after going abroad, so he was unaware of his boss's past with the man in front of him. He also didn't know how polite Jiang Haochen's former assistants had been to Xie Lingzhou.

"Get out," Xie Lingzhou said, his face ashen, shooing him away.

Assistant Chen said neither servilely nor arrogantly, "These are several endorsements from the same level as those from the Ministry of Commerce. President Jiang instructed that you can choose them first."

After Assistant Chen left, Xie Lingzhou didn't even glance at the document, and angrily swept it all to the ground.

Is he lacking endorsements? He's already endorsed top luxury brands, why would he need a domestic mobile phone brand?

He wants Jiang Haochen.
