The Rebirth of a Diva

The Rebirth of a Diva
Episode 49's



Xia Ling became speechless with all the lectures. Sister Mai Na is right, being an artist depends on individual strength and abilities – one must take care of themselves and avoid falling ill. But this flu was really an accident, if anyone was to blame, it was Boss Li. If he hadn't called her in the middle of the night, she wouldn't have ended up like this.


Seeing the situation, Tan Ying stepped forward to intervene, and with much effort, he managed to make Sister Mai Na sit by the side.


She looked like a Queen even as she sat on the sofa, talking about things that the new artist – should pay attention to not entertain the media at will, she said, to not be in a relationship the way they want, to respect the company's arrangement for them, to always pay attention to their image, the list goes on. In fact, she did not have to be briefed on all of this, Xia Ling knew exactly how to deal with them and it was all a natural trait for her.


Was Xia Ling bothered about other things instead.


"For a new artist, the installation fee will be a big expense," Sister Mai Na told him. "All the clothes you wear should be replaced with new ones. You have to go to class."


As he spoke, he glanced at Xia Ling's clothes with a look down on expression.


Xia Ling forced a smile. Her outfit that day was a – season discount dress without a – brand or model with an old jacket left behind by Xingling herself. The jacket had been worn and washed for many years so the color faded, but he had no choice, "his father" in this life was a commoner.


Sister Mai Na mercilessly denounced him, "Are you attending your grooming and branding classes in vain? Your clothes cannot be removed from the tip of your hair to the tip of your foot, change them immediately!"


"I have no money" he answered briefly.


Sister Mai Na was speechless.


It is not unusual to see people who are not rich, but few and many speak of them with such conviction. Sister Mai Na smiled wryly. "I don't expect a beginner like you to buy luxury items. The cost of these repairs will be a temporary loan from the company. When you start doing the work, you can finish the loan slowly .. Miss, you have to work a little harder, lest you not have enough money to pay us. "


“How is it possible,” Xia Ling frowned slightly, grinning silently.


To be fair, he had really not faced such a problem in his previous life. Together with Pei Ziheng already requires him to pay attention to his clothes all the time – he only wears luxury clothing brands or custom made clothes. Even when she became a celebrity there was no need for additional preparation, she only needed to get a few sets of dresses for important occasions, and with that, she just needed to get a few dresses for important occasions, she was already better dressed than most other female stars who had put in a lot of effort.


All expenses were borne by Pei Ziheng with his personal account. As long as he liked something, there was no way he would not get it.


He used to take these things for granted.


Because he was his father, teacher, and lover. . . They are so close that there is no need to be calculative.


However, behind him, all he felt now was sadness.


Sensing the prick in her heart, Xia Ling forced herself to stop thinking about it.


On the other hand, Sister Mai Na said, "You have determination. In this case, you can now choose two brands to buy with company funds. I've got to remind you that even for a high-end brand, you have to consider whether it suits you as well. Don't turn yourself into a village. "


Xia Ling nodded in understanding.


Being able to afford it did not mean he was definitely getting good items. For public figures such as artists, each outfit will be scrutinized and commented on by the public. If they messed with their image, even wearing silver and gold would not save them from the "low class" label stamped by others.


When it came to dressing, some could match Xia Ling's standards. In the past, global fashion leaders often used Xia Ling as their model, her influence surpassed that of the general public and was even effective for other influencers.


The taste and eye for fashion was the result of staying beside Pei Ziheng.


Coming from the Pei aristocracy, Pei Ziheng's eyes for fashion were not as usual. She enjoys choosing clothes for her, and her design choices are simple and comfortable, yet with artistic and elegant style. He is very particular about textures, and only chooses the high-quality ones. Xia Ling wore that all the time and not once did she feel that they were inadequate in any way. Until she was reborn as Ye Xingling and started wearing the season – discount item she was completely unfamiliar with this.


His mind wandered, and Sister Mai Na impatiently suppressed him.


Xia Ling was distracted, so she said two brands that she used to wear often.


Sister Mai Na lost it, "Who do you think you are, a diva? Xia Ling's? Asking for high-end luxury items, clothes that might not even be obtainable even with all the money we have, do you know how much exceeds the budget? A rookie who had not even done her first publicity shoot actually dared to ask for this. Let me tell you, it's not! Select again. "


Xia Ling was silent. Does that happen rarely? Why doesn't he think so. In her last life, it was just a piece of clothing, the kind she could leave on set by chance and not return for it. . .


But, looking at Sister Mai Na's expression, yes, it must have been rare.


He thought for a while and asked Sister Mai Na, "How much is the budget?" As he said it, he thought, forget it, that figure would be meaningless to him. Other than the brand she wore in her previous life, there were not many other brands she knew of. “Kakak Mai Na, you can choose two brands for me,” she gave up on herself.


Sister Mai Na glared at him. "You saved me from trouble here."


As forcefully as she responded to Xia Ling, Sister Mai Na got up and measured her in great detail. He has a conclusion. "You are completely clean and simple, yet you exude an aura of coldness and mystery. Lucas' outfit should suit you, and it's within budget." That said, he grabbed into his beautiful handbag for a business card, scrawled with a graffiti of the address on his back and handed it to Xia Ling. "Take this and find him. Just tell him I sent you."


Xia Ling picked it up and thanked him.


Sister Mai Na narrowed her eyes teasingly as she looked at him. "Two brands you mentioned earlier .. Your taste is not bad for someone your age. But, are you modeling after Xia Ling? You sang her song 'Sea Demon', and even thought of wearing the brand she used to wear. . "


Xia Ling was surprised, and hurriedly explained. "I accidentally modeled it, but I'm a fan of it, so I guess I'm kind of influenced by my idol." He didn't like what he heard himself say. What the hell is going on right now? Not only did he become a clone of himself, but he also even tried to explain how he did not attempt to copy?


Sister Mai Na sized him up a little before smiling. "I'm a fan of it too."


"Huh?" Xia Ling was surprised.


However Sister Mai Na did not explain further, instead, she returned to her firm tone, "Ye Xingling, being influenced by it is one thing, deliberately modeling it is a different thing. You should remember however perfect Xia Ling is, you are not her. You must have your own style. "


Xia Ling paused for a moment before saying, "I know."


Just like Sister Mai Na, she was first a manager, then a fan of Xia Ling. To him, he was the first Ye Xingling of this life. . . As for the memory of being Xia Ling the diva, it got further and further. It's all in the past now.


After the meeting with Sister Mai Na, she held the address and immediately went to finish the clothes.
