1654: A Treasure

A Treasure

The man with the untrimmed beard looked at Jing Xi, intrigued by the veil covering her face.1

"You're Fanxing?" the man asked.

"Yes," Jing Xi replied.

"Nice to meet you. My name is David. I'm the music director here at Longwei Entertainment. Please, have a seat."

David waited until Jing Xi had sat down and continued, "I heard your live-stream accidentally. Your sound has a unique taste to it, and that's why I invited you over. How about it? Do you want to sign with Longwei and become our singer?"

Jing Xi's mouth was wide open.

She'd never thought that she would be invited to become a singer.

She never could have imagined that starting her own live-stream would bring her such a surprise.

She'd already googled Longwei online on her way to the company. She learned that the company was established after the Dragon Kingdom was rebuilt and was trying to expand its singers' genre.

Longwei and Kaidi were the two largest music production companies in the Dragon Kingdom. Perhaps because Kaidi was better than them, but not by much, Longwei had been trying to look for new talent.

"Thank you. May I ask what it means to be a singer?" Jing Xi asked.

"Let me shorten it for you. You will be able to enjoy our company's benefits if you join us. We'll also be providing training and publicity for our new talents."

David gave a simple explanation for Jing Xi.

Jing Xi nodded. From what she'd heard, it sounded like if her songs became famous and helped the company, she could gain a hefty amount of money too.

After thinking for a while, she realized that she could earn a lot of money by being a singer.

There was no reason to decline since the company was willing to give her a chance.

"I got it." Jing Xi nodded. "I'll join Longwei."

David's eyes lit up as if he was looking at a treasure.

"Good! Can you take off your veil? We'll have to decide on your genre based on your look."

Jing Xi slowly took off her veil and showed her face.

"My God… Your face…" David gasped as he saw Jing Xi's scarred face.

"I'm sorry!" Jing Xi apologized as she quickly put her veil back on. "I got the scar from a fire…."

David calmed himself down and sighed. "That's too bad. Your perfect sound will go to waste… You could've gained fame instantly and gone on tour. It looks like we have to take another approach."

"Then… Can I still stay with Longwei?" Jing Xi asked anxiously. "I really like to sing."

"Of course you can! I'm not the type who will judge a book by its cover. I'll think of a plan specifically for you!"

"Thank you… Thank you so much!"

After a lengthy discussion and explanation, Jing Xi finally signed a two-year contract with Longwei.

The contract mentioned that as long as Jing Xi followed the company's rule, she would be able to obtain a certain amount of payment.
