Chapter 996: Chapter 996: Received Good News Chapter 996: Chapter 996: Received Good News Dina found it strange that her usually indifferent nephew was taking this matter seriously, but she still listened, retracting the MP3 player, “I got it, I’ll find time to listen to it. No rush, I still have other matters to deal with in Capital City, so I’ll probably stay for a few days.”

She looked up at Zhong Yuye and said, “By the way, why did you suddenly give up resisting? I thought you would hold out for another ten years, until the day you met someone you liked and the old man had you under his thumb before you’d obediently comply.”

She didn’t like anyone from the Zhong Family!

The only exception was her nephew.

Zhong Yuye was the only member of the Zhong Family she still kept in touch with and the only family she considered hers. Compared to other members of the Zhong Family who treated her like an alien, her art-loving little nephew was more like a friend, a confidant. He was a rare warmth in her life.

Dina looked at him seriously and asked, “Do you need my help?”

“Although your little aunt’s abilities are limited, and I can’t help you confront the old man directly, I can still give you some covert assistance.”

As an internationally renowned director, she had some pretty good connections at her disposal. She had come into contact with all walks of life, and maybe she could be of some help.

Zhong Yuye picked up his knife and fork and said, “I don’t need any help for now. I’m going back for my mom, not to confront anyone.”

Hanks Dina was somewhat surprised by his answer, but she restrained herself from asking any further questions.

People from the Zhong Family were all like that, they stopped at hints, never getting too warm or too cold, even when interacting with their own family.

The meal ended amidst occasional conversations between the two.

…

The next day, when Rong Yan arrived at KT Entertainment, she saw Estelle, who was beaming with happiness, say to her, “Not bad at all. Last night, my husband’s friend called to say you were too direct at the airport, and it seemed like there was no hope with Director Dina. But today, I got a call from Dina’s side saying that she will attend the AQ platform finals and will go to the scene to hear the rest of your song. Although she didn’t explicitly say she was interested in your work, her tone suggested it, and we’ll see if she’s satisfied after hearing the full version.”

“Really?” Rong Yan was also very excited, with joy evident on her face.

Estelle, “Of course, it’s true. Why would I lie to you? I doubted it myself when I first got the call, but when I heard it was from Dina’s staff, I believed it. Anyway, you played your cards right. I hadn’t thought about approaching Dina at all. It’s good you were well-informed and thought of that; otherwise, we would have missed a great opportunity.”

These past two days, she had been utterly frazzled by the mess Jiang Meiqi had caused.

As an artist, Rong Yan could refuse interviews and keep out of the spotlight.

She couldn’t.

As Rong Yan’s agent, media journalists only had her number to call. She couldn’t simply ignore all their calls; that would offend too many people. If those spurned journalists bore a grudge and posted even more outrageous and misleading content online, Rong Yan’s situation would become even more awkward.

To balance the relationship with various parties, she had lost quite a few strands of hair over these days. Fortunately, Rong Yan was smart and had thought of the strategy to turn things around with her work.

Dina was one of the most influential female directors in the world, and if Rong Yan could land one of Dina’s film projects, her status would advance by two whole levels.
