Chapter 721: Chapter 721: Reminds Me of an Old Acquaintance

"Really?" A trace of smile returned to Master Nan’s face.

He stared at the elixir in the brocade box on the table, his eyes clearly showing temptation.

Gu Jin smiled and nodded, "Yes, more real than pearls!"

Master Nan’s smile was bright, "Then I won’t be polite."

Master Nan acted swiftly; on that very day, he adopted Mo Leen as his goddaughter.

In the luxurious hall of his solemn manor, Mo Leen, dressed in a glamorous and tidy outfit, knelt before Master Nan, offering a cup of tea with both hands.

Her pure face blossomed with a bright smile, as beautiful and elegant as ever.

Master Nan reached out to take the tea from her hands, smiling kindly and benevolently.

This photo was published in all major newspapers and prestigious magazines.

As for those previous indecent photos of Mo Leen, with her face bruised and swollen, while they vaguely resembled the pure actress Mo Leen, comparing them to the photo of her kneeling before Master Nan made it hard to tell the truth from falsehood.

Even if it were true, no one dared to publicize those indecent photos to the world.

Master Nan’s authority in Hong Kong was unchallengeable.

That night, Gu Jin left Hong Kong with Master Nan’s newly appointed goddaughter, Mo Leen.

The next day.

All major newspapers in Beijing also reported the news of Mo Leen recognizing Master Nan of the Shenghe Association in Hong Kong as her godfather.

Her social status, due to this incident, not only didn’t suffer but increased significantly.

In the Chairman’s office of Shijiu Entertainment Company.

Gu Jin held the tea brewed by her secretary Wei Yan, sipping while flipping through the documents on the table with her other hand.

The company recently needed to inject new blood, which meant artists about to be signed.

The files she was reviewing were of promising talents that had been shortlisted and sent up.

There were both males and females among them, all youthful and attractive.

As she turned to one of the profiles, Gu Jin’s originally relaxed eyebrows gently furrowed.

She gazed at the photo in the profile; the girl’s features were deep and her appearance was striking, with an exotic face.

However, what attracted Gu Jin the most was not her appearance, but her eyes.

They bore a striking resemblance to someone from the past.

The girl was named Amin, capable of dancing and with a perfect figure.

She was discovered by an obscure company agent; the profile was incomplete, clearly sent just to fill the numbers.

"Knock knock—"

The knocking interrupted Gu Jin’s thoughts.

She put down her teacup and said without looking up, "Come in."

Wei Yan pushed the door and entered, "Miss Gu, Mo Leen is here."

"Let her in."

Wei Yan left the office shortly, and Mo Leen soon came in.

Though her appearance showed nothing amiss, what happened yesterday was a lifelong nightmare for her.

The face was still beautiful, but the eyes no longer held their past clarity, filled instead with a heavy look.

Gu Jin looked up at Mo Leen, who was wearing a beige dress and a shawl, wrapping herself tightly.

"Sit."

Mo Leen sat in front of the desk, "Miss Gu, did you want to see me?"

"Yes, there are some matters I want to discuss with you."

Gu Jin organized the documents on the table, setting aside the files of those who were about to be signed, while those that were rejected went directly into the trash can.

These shortlisted profiles sent to her had no chance of being retrieved for further use; the ones deemed useless were naturally discarded.

On top of the pile of artist profiles awaiting company signing was the profile of the girl named Amin that Gu Jin had examined earlier.
