"Hey, Brother Life? Didn't you hurt your hand while saving the puppy? It's healed so quickly?"
"Speechless. Can't they recover yet? Don't be so malicious, upstairs!"
" Brother Life was wrapped in bandages yesterday, but today the bandages are gone, and his hands are completely clean?"
Some comments flashed by, followed by IDs from all over the country, quickly pushing the Weibo's popularity up.
" Nan Qing has absolutely no manners! She has to buy her degree, and she can't even read a script coherently. Isn't it normal for a trash graduate from a third-rate university to have no manners?"
"No wonder Nan Qing got the YIVIYA endorsement and there's been a massive promotion everywhere. Turns out, the big spender behind her is really pushing things out. Tsk..."
"What rich family's young master? What noble son of an old-money family? The fans are really good at exaggerating. Now that they've been proven wrong, doesn't their face hurt?"
"Does anyone really believe that people in the entertainment industry can be clean? They're all rotten and stinking long ago!"
"So Nan Qing has hooked up with that Crown Prince of the Gu Group? The Crown Prince changes partners more often than he changes clothes; some people who were hoping to get ahead of themselves are probably going to be disappointed."
" Bai Ruanruan is the most pitiful one. She's been suppressed since she first joined the company. She's probably developing workplace PTSD!"
"Doesn't anyone think Nan Qing is incredibly violent? He used a manure basket to hit Bai Ruanruan Bai Ruanruan the show, and then slapped her after the show. He's really violent!"
While the internet was abuzz with discussion, Nan Qing pushed open the CEO's office door. Zheng Ming was there too. Nan Qing raised an eyebrow slightly.
" President Liu, I want to change my agent."
Zheng Ming was furious when he heard that.
"You want to change agents? I haven't even complained about you being a hopeless case yet, and you dare to complain about me?"
" President Liu, listen to what he's saying—"
Zheng Ming's voice was filled with disbelief, as if he had heard a joke.
"A loser who can't even get a lead role in a small web series actually looks down on me, a top agent at Huading Entertainment?"
"Get your head straight. You're just a useless piece of trash in the company. I'm already grateful you're still here with me."
"Do you think you're so great for getting the YIVIYA spokesperson? Everyone knows how you got this endorsement! You've latched onto someone powerful and now you're showing off. You really think you're some prince's favorite concubine!"
"Let me tell you, I don't even look at you. Nan Qing, you're destined to be a complete loser!"
You'll never become famous in your lifetime!
"Without me! You'll be in deep trouble!"
"Do you think I'd want to manage an artist like you? Do you think I'd want to be your manager? You're not saying this as a ploy to get me to introduce you to these resources, are you?"
You're dreaming!
Zheng Ming vented his anger, but Nan Qing finally waited for him to finish. With her long, slender fingers, she pushed the phone screen onto the table and lazily tossed out a single sentence.
"Brother Breakdown, I hit Bai Ruanruan."
Zheng Ming was panting angrily when he heard the sound and paused in surprise.
The phone screen lit up, and the Weibo with tens of thousands of reposts and comments immediately caught Zheng Ming's eye, including the video of Bai Ruanruan covering her face after being hit.
" President Liu, you know about Bai Ruanruan's situation. We have a deep-seated grudge against each other, so it's impossible for us to work under the same agent."
"My temple is too big to enshrine this clay Bodhisattva of Zheng Ming. Please help me replace it."
Zheng Ming became even angrier upon hearing this.
"You think I'm some kind of clay idol? Do you know how many years I've been in this business? Let me tell you, with your status, I wouldn't take you on even if you begged me!"
Seeing the barrage of negative comments and the rapidly increasing number of likes, Zheng Ming felt a sense of relief, and even the anger he had felt towards Nan Qing seemed to ease considerably.
Nan Qing's scandals are now confirmed. He already had a bad public image, and now with the bullying and being kept by a sugar daddy, he has no chance of making a comeback.
They're even changing agents? Who wants a hot potato like that!
Zheng Ming suddenly laughed, gritting his teeth as he said:
"Fine, fine, you're so capable, let's change it!"
"Who wants to be your agent! I'd rather not be one!"
Lawyer Guo, carrying a briefcase, strode into Huading Entertainment, looking disdainful as he slapped the contract termination agreement onto the table, indicating that he was about to terminate his contract with a new agent.
Zheng Ming held the contract in both hands, too afraid to sign it. He used the excuse of needing to urinate to make several phone calls and summoned someone from the company's legal department.
The group stared at the contract for a long time before Zheng Ming finally picked up the pen with trembling hands, glancing at Lawyer Guo before even writing.
Nan Qing, that fool, is nothing to fear.
The man surnamed Guo is not easily fooled.
He was genuinely afraid that signing his name and pressing his fingerprint would land him in jail again.
With the final stroke, Zheng Ming finished pressing his fingerprint and was wiping his fingertips with a tissue.
Lawyer Guo's voice suddenly rang out.
"Young Master, the case of Wang Dafu, who spread rumors about you, has been adjudicated."
Zheng Ming, wiping his fingers, perked up his ears.
He was convicted of insult and defamation, and due to the wide reach and serious nature of the offense, was sentenced to two years in prison, fined, and deprived of his political rights for life.
"Don't worry, I will protect all your legitimate rights and interests. You can call me anytime you need me."
Nan Qing smiled, her eyes crinkling. "Perfect timing. I've gotten myself into trouble again today, and I'll have to trouble you, Lawyer Guo, once more."
The two people over there were chatting happily, but Zheng Ming, looking at the contract he had just signed, suddenly felt a pang of anxiety.
-
When Nan Qing walked out of the conference room, Yu Xingyan was leaning against the railing eating candy.
He had a smoking addiction, but his fans said smoking was bad, so he quit and developed a habit of eating sweets.
" Nan Qing-- "
Seeing him come out, Yu Xingyan waved to him, "Did it work?"
Nan Qing nodded. "The contract is signed."
"What are the arrangements for the new agent?"
Nan Qing smiled.
" Brother Big Head, I've been thoroughly vilified online. Our company's agents are probably all avoiding me now."
Yu Xingyan patted him on the shoulder, gesturing for him to follow her.
"I happened to have nothing to do today, so I came over to talk to you about it."
"We didn't get along before, but at most we'd just banter and exchange a few words. You used to be really annoying with your chin up, but you were a decent person, and I can't just watch you jump into a fire pit."
Nan Qing looked at him with some surprise.
Yu Xingyan also laughed.
"My mom had my fortune told a while ago, and she said I'd face a major calamity this month, which happened right around Mount Pingqiao. Anyway, I have to thank you."
"Don't look at me like that, young master—"
Yu Xingyan shrugged. "Not everyone believes in science. My mom isn't very educated. She started learning to cut pig feed, chop firewood, and cook when she was seven or eight. After she got married, she worked at a roadside stall for half her life to make ends meet. She can only rest when I can get into the industry and earn money. There's nothing she can do; she just believes in this."
That's not what I meant.
Nan Qing looked at him, and for the first time, her smile was genuine.
"I just didn't expect you to have such a rich life experience."
What I never expected was that even a minor character who only appeared a few times in this grand storyline had his own small but colorful world.
"Let's not talk about that. Let's talk about the agents in our company."
"Our company has two top agents: Zheng Ming, who manages you, and Sister Man, who mainly manages female artists. They are both highly experienced, have extensive connections, and possess a wealth of resources. When they want to exert their influence, they can mobilize the entire management department."
" Sister Man is very generous, but she likes to take artists to drinking parties. She wouldn't exactly sleep with them, but in order to get resources, it's inevitable that they'll be sexually harassed."
Nan Qing, with her keen insight, looked over.
Yu Xingyan somewhat uncomfortable.
"Sigh, when your Brother Big Head first joined the company, he was also taken along to make up the numbers. Let me tell you, we were young back then, we'd never experienced anything like this before..."
Yu Xingyan hesitated for a moment, but looking at the inquisitive Nan Qing and remembering his sincere words to Brother Big Head, she gritted her teeth and decided to go for it.
"A real estate developer, male, in his thirties, tall and strong, touched my butt!"
He even leaned close to my ear and blew air into it, saying he wanted to help me out—
Nan Qing's pupils dilated in shock, and her ears turned bright red.
"And you even said, 'So what if we're all men!'"
"I was so scared that I scrambled out of the house, clutching my belt—"
Yu Xingyan, her gaze fell on Nan Qing's ears, which were so red they were practically bleeding, and she seemed somewhat puzzled.
"No, why are you blushing?"
"So, someone else is offering to help you out?"
