When Jasmine was panic, Edward, sitting next to her, held her hand under the table. He seemed to tell her not to worry and he would be there for her. Somehow, at this moment, Jasmine did not want to shake off his hand at all.

"Please be quiet. I have something to say." What Edward, the best actor, said counted weigh, and reporters from all medias who were noisy just now became silent immediately.

"I don’t where you guys have got these groundless rumors and come to press Jasmine." Said Edward. "But as far as I am concerned, Jasmine has always kept her hands to herself. She would never go to hospital for examination alone. In addition, about whether she is the illegitimate daughter, she is a very hardworking woman who has never clung to others." Speaking of which, Edward halted and looked at Jasmine.

"I think Jasmine would prove herself. Neither does it have anything to do with whether she is the illegitimate daughter of Gu Family, nor does it have anything to do with today’s press conference. It is the opening ceremony today, so please ask questions related to the TV show. Thanks."

Edward thought he was really righteous. It was like the hero saved a beauty. Jasmine must be looking at him in an adoring manner.

"Hum, now you know my kindness. Come falling into my arms!" Edward thought. It was obviously that he had been in a state of self intoxication, though he stayed calm and elegant apparently.

What Edward said made reporters silent. However, there were always people having the guts. Since it was forbidden to ask private questions to Jasmine, raising other questions must be workable.

"Excuse me, is there any hidden relationship between you? That’s why Mr. Chu defended Miss Shu so strongly." It was a female reporter who had raised such a bold question. Even Edward had to admire her boldness. However, he had been asked this kind of question for so many times that he answered it with skill and ease.

"There must be some misunderstand. We are merely senior brother and junior sister apprentices. She has always been working hard. Besides, none of these is true, and I’m just clarifying it for her."

Edward smiled softly, and answered questions appropriately. Although knowing that the TV show had started, and harmless gossip between them would help with publicity, he did not want this way at the moment.

Seeing a female reporter taking the lead, the rest rushed toward them and tried to ask more questions. Obviously, neither could these bland answers satisfy them, nor could they satisfy their bosses. However, they were stopped by Brad, Edward’s agent.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please be quiet. On behalf of Pictures Entertainment Company, now I announce that we will sign up with Jasmine. She will become an actress of our company. In future, I will be Jasmine’s agent, and our company will take the full responsibility of liquidated damages. Jasmine is a rarely potential actress, and the company will seize it."

Like throwing a bomb in the crowds, reporters came up one after another. Getting off the chair, they scrambled to get breaking news.

"Excuse me, why would Pictures Entertainment sign up with Jasmine?"

"Is it because of Edward that Jasmine switched jobs?"

"Is it really because Jasmine is a good actress that Pictures Entertainment Company decided to help her terminating her previous agreement? "

"Excuse me, Edward, how do you feel about Jasmine?"

"Please be a little more specific..."

Jasmine was a little panic, but still held Edward. She adjusted her mood, and said softly, "Ladies and gentlemen, indeed, I am the illegitimate daughter of Gu Family. However, I have lived with my mother for the past years, and never been back to Gu Family. I have lived in their family for some time in my childhood, but Chairman Gu didn’t like me very much."

"Every body in the family preferred Miss Gu to me, so I moved out with my mother. Since then, we have lost contact with Gu Family. I have never got any support from others. I hope that you pay more attention to my first TV show, thanks."

Reporters tried to ask more, but all had gone backstage. Media reporters were stopped by security guards.

At backstage, Jasmine frowned and asked, "Edward, why did you help me out? Besides, why did you cancel the contract and change the agent for me unilaterally?"

She totally had no idea what Edward was doing. Although Mary neither was a golden agent nor made good achievement for her, she could not be changed at the drop of a hat. After all, they had had a fellowship for years. What Edward did made Jasmine in a dilemma.

"I helped you out because you are my girl. Uh uh, don’t rush to deny that." Edward quickly stopped Jasmine from saying no to it.

"As for canceling the agreement for you, Jasmine, do you really think that Mary wants to be your agent sincerely? For years, she has never got your interest in heart. As far as I know, she screwed up plenty of opportunities which you should have seized. Haven’t you felt something wrong?"

"You mean that Mary doesn’t want to be my agent, but to break me down." Jasmine was not stupid. She did find out something wrong after Edward explained to her.

Unlike other agents, Mary seldom took notifications of variety shows. However, she always persuaded her to be patient, and said that opportunities would show up themselves. And when there were TV series or films coming to Jasmine, Mary always said they were unsuitable. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have to participate in the audition herself.

"Think about it. Who would do this to you?" Said Edward. He gave Jasmine another hint which she did not expect.

"Jessica Gu." He said.
