The Fox Ancestor is from My Family

Tianyu Entertainment.

In Jiang Haochen's office, Chen Qing was reporting on the day's work arrangements.

After finishing the daily work report, Chen Qing didn't leave immediately. Instead, she asked, "Did President Jiang check Weibo today?"

"What's wrong?" Jiang Haochen asked in surprise.

He doesn't actually have the habit of using Weibo. Back when he was still an artist, let alone browsing Weibo, even logging into his account occasionally would be recorded and analyzed by people with ulterior motives.

After getting into trouble a few times, Jiang Haochen stopped using Weibo much, only logging in occasionally to promote his new dramas. After retiring from acting, he paid even less attention to it.

Seeing his boss's expression, Chen Qing knew he was still unaware, so he dutifully reported to his supervisor, "Mr. Chi is furious."

"What?" Jiang Haochen raised an eyebrow.

"Mr. Chi's cameo as the Fox Ancestor has become a hit online. Even award-winning actor Yan Chuan helped to retweet it on Weibo. From this morning until now, Mr. Chi's Weibo has gained 200 million followers and is still trending on Weibo," Chen Qing reported.

Trending topic?

Jiang Haochen quickly grabbed his phone, unlocked it, opened Weibo, and checked the trending topics.

[The Fox Ancestor, a new creation in the human world.]

Chi Yuan is the child raised by award-winning actor Yan Chuan.

Jiang Haochen didn't react much to the first entry, but what was going on with the second one?

Jiang Haochen clicked directly into the second entry and saw the Weibo post that Yan Chuan had forwarded. His brows immediately furrowed.

He opened the comments section and saw a bunch of Yan Chuan's fans asking about the relationship between Yan Chuan and Chi Yuan, and Yan Chuan did reply.

{In the new drama "Imperial Power," I raised the Fox Ancestor, so everyone is welcome to watch!}

{Ahhh, Yan Chuan, you raised a fox ancestor?!}

Was the Fox Ancestor well-behaved as a child?

Yan Chuan replied: {Good girl.}

{Ahhhhhhh~~~}

Selling a persona for publicity and riding the wave of popularity is common in the industry, but Jiang Haochen just couldn't stand it.

When did he raise his kitten himself?

She's very well-behaved; you don't need to tell her that.

He opened the Weibo login page, wanting to log in to his Weibo account, but after thinking for a long time, he couldn't remember his login password.

"Assistant Chen, what's my Weibo password?"

Assistant Chen witnessed firsthand the entire process of his boss gritting his teeth and scrolling through Weibo.

As soon as President Jiang asked, he knew what his boss was up to.

Assistant Chen: "Boss, do you want to help Mr. Chi by retweeting his Weibo post?"

Jiang Haochen nodded.

What's wrong with Yan Chuan? He's the only movie star, the only one with fans.

Assistant Chen advised, "I suggest you don't do it."

Just as Jiang Haochen was about to ask why, Assistant Chen, anticipating his boss's prediction, continued.

"During the promotional tour for 'Baihua Mountain,' there were rumors online that Mr. Chi was your kept man. That hasn't been long ago, and if you repost it now, it will definitely cause a stir."

Jiang Haochen persisted: "I'm the company boss. Isn't it reasonable for me to promote my artists?"

Assistant Chen silently rolled his eyes: "Yes, if you've promoted other artists before."

Jiang Haochen: "...No?"

Assistant Chen: "No."

Definitely.

Seeing that his boss was still somewhat unwilling, Assistant Chen added insult to injury.

"Furthermore, your contract with Mr. Chi contains a clear clause that your relationship cannot be discovered, and if it is discovered, the contract will automatically become invalid. Mr. Chi is currently riding high, and exposing it at this time might put you at a disadvantage."

As an assistant, Chen Qing habitually conducts risk assessments for her boss's decisions.

Upon hearing the first half of the sentence, Jiang Haochen was still troubled by the drafting of the terms. But upon hearing the second half, Jiang Haochen fell silent.

Chi Yuan followed him in order to gain a foothold in this industry. Now that he's famous, is he actually looking forward to severing ties with him?

After all, being kept by someone is not something to be proud of.

"Okay, you can leave now."

Assistant Chen left the office.

Jiang Haochen stared at the Fox Ancestor footage that was playing on a loop on his phone.

He was the one who guided the boy to film this scene. The way the Fox Ancestor looked at the camera was the same way the boy looked at him when they first met.

This was originally meant to be his unique gaze.

However, since the filming was completed and has gone viral online, Chi Yuan has never mentioned it to him.

"Ding-dong".

A WeChat message popped up on my phone.

Jiang Haochen clicked on it, and it was Chi Yuan.

Chi Yuan: {Mr. Jiang, are you awake?}

What kind of question is this? It's almost 10 o'clock.

What Jiang Haochen didn't know was that during the time he and Chi Yuan "lived together," he never woke up before ten o'clock.

Jiang Haochen: {?}

Chi Yuan: {Mr. Jiang, do you remember what I told you before about my cameo role as the Fox Ancestor?}

I'm watching it now.

Jiang Haochen: {Hmm.}

Chi Yuan: {There's a promotional video for me online. Mr. Jiang, could you take a look when you have some free time?}

No need to make time, I've already watched it many times.

Jiang Haochen: {I saw it, the acting was good. The Fox Ancestor is a divine being, captivating all beings.}

This is the comment with the most likes on Weibo.

Chi Yuan: {Mr. Jiang, when I was acting, I mistook the camera for you.}

Jiang Haochen himself didn't realize that the moment he saw those words, the frown that had been etched on his brow for half an hour suddenly relaxed.

Jiang Haochen asked knowingly, "Why did you mistake me for someone else?"

Chi Yuan: {The Fox Ancestor can bewitch all living beings, but I only wish to bewitch you.}

Jiang Haochen's mouth was practically splitting open to his ears as he held his phone and spun around in his chair twice in the office.

Jiang Haochen: {Focus on filming.}

Chi Yuan obediently hummed in agreement, and then didn't send any more messages.

Jiang Haochen switched to WeChat and called Cui Dong.

The phone rang for a long time before being answered, with the sound of a woman's suppressed breathing in the background.

Jiang Haochen's face darkened: "Cui Dong!"

Cui Dong casually replied, "Wait a minute, it'll be over soon."

Jiang Haochen didn't want to hear the "ending soon" message, so he slammed the phone down, feeling disgusted.

Five minutes later, Cui Dong called back.

Jiang Haochen couldn't help but curse, "With such a short time, don't keep working day and night."

Cui Dong cursed, "You think I want to? She's filming at night, and this is the only time she has time."

Jiang Haochen: "You beast."

Cui Dong protested, "Me, a beast? I gave her resources, and to avoid interfering with her work, I specifically chose to sleep with her when she was resting. Am I a beast? Am I a beast?"

That last sentence was clearly addressed to the woman on the other end of the phone.

A languid and pleasant female voice came over: "It was President Cui who contacted me."

Jiang Haochen frowned: "How could you say something like that to my face?"

Cui Dong found it somewhat amusing. He told his female companion to go take a shower, and only after things quieted down did he say, "Think what I said was harsh? Dude, this is a transaction, not a romance. The clearer things are, the fewer problems there will be. Let's not talk about this anymore. What did you want to see me about?"

Jiang Haochen didn't want to continue the topic with Cui Dong, so he directly stated his purpose: "Find a few A-list celebrities and have them retweet Chi Yuan's Weibo post."

Cui Dong exclaimed in disbelief, "You contacted me just for this? To get the company's top artists to promote your mistress?"

Jiang Haochen briefly explained the situation online to Cui Dong: "Yan Chuan has already helped to forward it, so as the company's owner, we can't just do nothing. Chi Yuanhong's involvement is also beneficial to the company."

Ten minutes later, the three top-tier celebrities who were riding high on Tianyu all posted on Weibo.

{@Yan Chuan, the movie star Yan, Fox Ancestor is my junior brother, you can't steal him online. @Chi Yuan @《The Legend of the Green Fox》}

A sudden online talent war propelled Chi Yuan to new heights of fame.

Outsiders only thought it was a publicity stunt, but only Assistant Chen knew that the Weibo post was personally requested by his boss, Mr. Jiang.
