Plagued by bad reviews, but the top actress!-Chapter 166 - : The Empress Wants to Sing the Theme Song

Chapter 166: Chapter 166: The Empress Wants to Sing the Theme Song

Lin Siqian wore an expression of contempt.

“Xu Jiayang, don’t blame me for being ungrateful, blame yourself for picking Xia Weibao as the female lead!”

“Keep an eye on whom he finds to sing.”

He absolutely must not find the right person for the job.

“Xia Weibao, you ruined my reputation, I will destroy your acting career!”

You dream of turning the tables with ‘Allure,’ but there’s no chance!

Lin Siqian was confident in her plan, with her current status in the music scene, no one would dare to cross her.

No matter which famous singer Xu Jiayang approached, she could stop them!

Inside the recording studio, Xu Jiayang stared at his phone, somewhat self-mockingly.

Indeed, the world is cold and indifferent.

After so many years, he still hadn’t seen through the fickleness of human relationships, the weakness of human hearts.

He still deluded himself into thinking Lin Siqian would lend him a hand.

Today she was a rising Diva, spreading fame all over Jiangnan and Nanbei. How could she sing the theme song for his mere web series, it would be beneath her.

To say he wasn’t disheartened would be a lie.

Back when Lin Siqian was just a minor singer, her family fell ill, in need of money, receiving only cold looks.

He pitied her, so he took a risk and let her sing the movie theme song, helping her become an overnight sensation.

At that time, he was at the peak of his career, the film hadn’t even aired yet and was already a hit, countless top divas were breaking their heads to sing for him for free.

But he rejected them all, took a gamble, and gave the opportunity to the newcomer Lin Siqian.

It could be said, he was Lin Siqian’s benefactor.

Now that he had fallen on hard times, he couldn’t find anyone to sing the theme song.

Having no one else to turn to, he sought out Lin Siqian, hoping she would remember his past favor and help him out.

But who would have thought, she would agree and then go back on her word.

Xu Jiayang, reflecting on the past years, truly experienced the warmth and chill of human relationships.

After all the ups and downs, he could narrate endless tales of how the world turns.

Just as he was at a loss for what to do, the door to the recording studio was suddenly pushed open.

“Director Xu, what are you doing?”

Xia Weibao frowned, that expression, looked as if someone’s champion account had been stolen?

Xu Jiayang tossed the sheet music to one side, his hair practically turning white from worry.

“Baby, do you know anyone who can sing?”

“You’re looking for a singer? Thinking of going karaoke?”

Xia Weibao asked nonchalantly, casually picking up the music sheet.

It was well written, a song with ancient style, and the lyrics were beautiful.

But from her perspective as someone from ancient times, a few minor tweaks could perhaps add even more classical flair.

Xu Jiayang was somewhat speechless. If he wanted to go karaoke, he would just go to a KTV, why look for a singer?

This woman’s way of thinking really was something else, all about eating and playing.

“The singer for ‘Allure’s theme song backed out at the last minute. Can’t find anyone to do it now.”

Xia Weibao frowned, then with a mocking look, said, “Director Xu, you’re out of money again, aren’t you?”

Her words hit the bullseye, Xu Jiayang’s face couldn’t have been more expressive.

Indeed, the production team didn’t have the money to hire someone…

He grimaced awkwardly, “Funds have been a bit tight recently, if we could find someone a bit cheaper, that would be best…”

“Me, me!” Xia Weibao was very excited. “I can sing.”

Especially ancient style songs, who could be better than her, an actual person from olden times?

Xu Jiayang smacked his forehead, how could he have forgotten, Xia Weibao started as a singer.

He then put on an expression as endearing as an old mother’s, holding Xia Weibao’s hand with great satisfaction, “Baby, you’re a talented singer, your talents mustn’t be buried, the theme song depends on you now.”

Xia Weibao waved her hand grandly, “No problem, considering how poor you are, we can negotiate the fee. What rank are you in ‘King’s Glory’, Director Xu?”
