Chapter 267 – Competition of Sugar Daddies not Acting Skills (6)
Su Wan received Xinyu Entertainment’s President Huang Qi’s call before leaving the International Hotel.
After all, the company had been her boss for many years. Su Wan and Huang Qi decided to meet at a tea room on the eighteenth floor of the hotel. By the time Huang Qi arrived, Su Wan had finished steeping tea.
“Green tea. President Huang, try it.”
Su Wan smiled and pushed the cup of tea she brewed to Huang Qi. He was in his early forties. He had a skinny face but a sharp gaze. Hearing Su Wan’s words, Huang Qi sat across Su Wan carelessly. Glancing at the faint green tea, he couldn’t help but take a whiff. “Good tea. Good skills.”
Biluochun, his favorite.
He took a few careful sips before shifting his gaze reluctantly. His deep gaze landed on Su Wan’s face. “Su Wan, I’ve treated you considerately well all these years. Shouldn’t you give the company an explanation?”
Because Su Wan had terminated the contract unilaterally, Xinyu Entertainment was pushed to the heart of the struggle. The public relations crisis team in the company was now under pressure.
Plus, Su Wan was a popular artist in Xinyu. Her leave would impact the company greatly and it wasn’t something that could be resolved in just a few days.
“I obviously know that President Huang treats me well. We’ve been friends for so many years. President Huang, you should know. I’d rather destroy myself than to submit.”
As she said this, Su Wan lifted her palm and waved her hands in front of Huang Qi. “An investor had invested fifty-five million in this year’s newest historical drama. I don’t need to tell you who the investor is right? President Huang, you know who the second female lead they appointed is, don’t you? President Huang, no one would be against getting more money. I understand you but you need to be understanding to me too. As artists, we don’t have it easy either.”
Huang Qi’s expression stiffened hearing Su Wan’s words. Then he laughed. “Su Wan, ah, Su Wan. We’ve been friends all these years and I know that you have a stubborn temperament. Your Brother Huang, I am not a stingy person. Let’s part without hard feelings. Hopefully, we have a chance to collaborate in the future. As for the penalty fee, I won’t be urging you to pay it right away. When you find your next company, you can give it to me then. Okay?”
“Brother Huang, I like your attitude!”
Hearing Huang Qi’s words, Su Wan smiled faintly. “We’ll definitely get to collaborate in the future.”
Businessmen cared about profiting. It was shameless for Huang Qi to suppress herself and to flatter Ye Liu but he accepted Lu Jun’s money. Besides this however, Huang Qi was loyal to his friends and had pretty good connections in the entertainment circle. Su Wan was really willing to collaborate with straightforward people like him.
The two casually chatted in the tea room for a bit before Huang Qi hastily left after picking up a call. Su Wan tasted her tea on her own before slowly standing up. Before she could leave, she saw Ye Shaoqun walking towards her.
Second Master Ye usually dressed himself up like a flashy person. Today, he wore a red suit with a snow-white shirt inside. He appeared to be really eye-catching from afar.
“Hey, Su Wan?”
Ye Shaoqun stopped her seeing that she was about to walk past him.
“Hm?”
Su Wan glanced at Ye Shaoqun before furrowing her brows. “Master Ye, you’re calling me?”
“Uh.”
Ye Shaoqun let go of her hand and looked at Su Wan in interest. “What Master Ye? It makes me feel like we’re not close. Here, call me second brother.”
“I believe we’re the same age.”
Su Wan looked indifferently at him. “My birthday is next month, what about you?”
Ye Shaoqun was speechless.
What? They were going to compare ages?
Uh. Speaking of, how did his cold and ruthless brother end up liking a woman from the entertainment circle? Even more, he found a woman three years older than her. Though people say that women hitting their thirties would have a stable income, it wasn’t like the Ye Family lacked money!
Cough.
Ye Shaoqun snapped out of his trance and shot Su Wan a smile. “Your birthday is next month, oh. Remember to call me the day of your birthday. I’m actually older than you.”
“Oh, Second Brother Ye.”
Su Wan listened to Ye Shaoqun and then nodded at him. “If there’s nothing else, I’ll be going back now. I’ll notify you the day of my birthday party.”
“Hey, don’t leave! I know all about you. How’s it? Are you interested in collaborating with your second brother? I’ll start an entertainment company and you can become the senior sister. You get to bully the artists however you want and pick any spokesperson contracts you want, okay?”
“Hm?”
Su Wan narrowed her eyes. “Second Brother Ye, your suggestion is really tempting but I’ve found a company already.”
“What? Impossible!”
Ye Shaoqun subconsciously denied. With his connections and network, there was no way that he wouldn’t have received any information if Su Wan found another company to work with. Even more, his precious brother had asked him to take care of her.
“Why would I lie to you?”
Su Wan patted his shoulders and said softly in Ye Shaoqun’s ears, “Second brother, start the entertainment company as you wish. When the time comes, I’ll introduce some artists that have good prospects to you. Of course, I won’t be coming along. There’s no point trying to earn money from my own home.”
Ye Shaoqun was speechless.
Damn. You really treat yourself as the madam of the Ye Family?
By the time Ye Shaoqun processed what happened, Su Wan had already walked off on high heels.
Watching as the flicker of red gradually faded into the distance, Ye Shaoqun couldn’t help but pinch his chin. This woman was really interesting. She wasn’t like the artists in the entertainment circle. She was really arrogant!
Unfortunate. This was the woman his brother was interested in. Hey you, what are you thinking about?
He snapped out of his trance. Ye Shaoqun thought that it was better to wait for his own sweetheart upstairs…
Ye Shaoqun and Su Wan left the team room and they both didn’t notice that there was a pair of eyes staring at them from a corner.
The owner of the eyes belonged to the Daily Apple Magazine female reporter who had an argument with Su Wan the other day.
“Hmph.”
The female reporter glanced at the camera in her hands. She really caught an exclusive news this time!
China’s entertainment circle never lacked news. Today, this person cheated on someone and tomorrow, someone divorced another person. Even leaking intimate pictures had caused an uproar in the entertainment circle for a while. Today however, all the headlines were taken over by a woman. She’s Su Wan!
Lu Family’s residence.
Madam Lu placed the newspaper down and a sneer floated on her face. “This Su Wan really knows how to grab people’s attention. When she was with you, I could tell that she wasn’t a simple girl. Thankfully, you broke up with her. This woman is greedy and would do anything for money. She’s not worthy of our Lu Family.”
Lu Jun didn’t say anything. He didn’t feel anything towards Su Wan now. The only reason why he paid attention to her news was because he was scared that she might do something bad to Ye Liu.
No matter how dignified Su Wan sounded in front of the media, saying that she was grateful and they parted without hard feelings, Lu Jun didn’t believe in a single word.
No one knew better than him how ruthless that woman was. Lu Jun had originally arranged people to catch Su Wan and Master Chen together. Who knew that something went wrong at the last moment. Even more, Su Wan even terminated the contract in high profile. It suppressed the rumors that weren’t beneficial to her. Even more, there were many online users that acted like detectives, analyzing the “truth” as to why Su Wan terminated the contract. If this continued, the situation would only become more and more in favor to Su Wan.
Beep.
As Lu Jun was deep in thought, he suddenly received a notification from his phone. He opened it to see his best friend, Liang Zheng’s message.
Liang Zheng: our magazine found an inside story. You won’t be able to imagine what it is.
Right after, Liang Zheng sent Lu Jun a photo. He looked at it and the first thing he saw was the body of red. The woman wore a red dress and a charming smile, and then a man next to her with his lips curled up.
This was Su Wan and Ye Shaoqun!
Lu Jun’s expression became gloomy. So they were already together?
He really underestimated Su Wan!
