Xiao He unexpectedly gained a criminal cheat skill that allows him to learn all kinds of crime-related abilities.
—But the catch is, he has to keep “stabbing people” to stay alive.
<...Finally, in the lounge, everyone agreed on a compensation that satisfied each other.
When we came out, the party outside was already coming to an end.
As the host summarized the evening's events, the final farewell song began, and Xiao He and Liu Rulan left the venue early and went to the underground parking garage.
"Xiao He!"
Before he even got into the car, Xiao He heard a familiar voice coming from not far behind him.
He turned his head and, sure enough, met Xie Jingshi's gaze.
"How are you? Are you alright? If there's anything I can do to help with the situation online, just let me know."
Xie Jingshi seemed to have been waiting for Xiao He for quite a while, but when he came over, there was no impatience on his face, but rather a hint of worry.
"I'm fine, thank you for your concern," Xiao He replied with a smile. "If anything happens, we'll definitely contact Brother Xie for help immediately."
"That's fine then."
Xie Jingshi breathed a sigh of relief, but instead of asking Xiao He what the director and they had talked about, he continued, "We really owe you a lot for this. I was completely bewildered by the situation and had no idea what to do."
Fortunately, Xiao He took control of the situation first and began to provide first aid to Lu Yuxi.
"Haha, it's okay, I'm just doing my best and doing what I can."
Xiao He and Xie Jingshi chatted casually for a while, and then each returned to their respective vans.
After things quieted down, Xiao He and Liu Rulan exchanged a glance and laughed.
Their teamwork this time was quite skillful: one charged forward, the other provided support; one was responsible for ruthlessly vying for resources, while the other was responsible for unconditionally supporting their agent and, to a certain extent, exerting a deterrent effect.
The final result was naturally a bumper harvest.
After all, as one of the largest online shopping platforms in China, Taozi naturally knows a great deal about the merchants and brands they represent.
It would be very easy for them to help Xiao He secure endorsements for several brands.
When the time comes, Liu Rulan will carefully select a group of business endorsements, which will be another important business achievement for Xiao He.
Next year's business cooperation will be half the pressure.
When the final terms were agreed upon, Liu Rulan almost burst out laughing.
She really has to thank Lu Yu for this "gift".
"Although this was a terrible disaster for others, it was a great success for us." Liu Rulan couldn't hide her smile as she looked at Xiao He, "Your performance today was also really good, which greatly improved our negotiations."
Without Xiao He's exceptional reaction on stage and his proactive rescue efforts backstage, Shi Lei probably wouldn't have agreed so easily.
It has to be one of our own artists that we can present!
It greatly facilitated verbal disputes.
"So, Sister Liu, do you have any clues about the situation online now?"
Xiao He looked at Liu Rulan with a questioning expression.
The production team was indeed caught in an undeserved disaster this time, so Xiao He didn't mind temporarily drawing some attention to them.
Of course, we can't just ignore the negative public opinion and let it completely tilt in a direction unfavorable to him.
As early as when Liu Rulan didn't rush to help him clarify public opinion, but instead demanded "compensation" from Shi Lei, Xiao He guessed that Liu Rulan already had a plan.
As expected, Liu Rulan tilted her head slightly, looking very calm: "That's natural."
