"Is that enough?" Mr. Xie couldn't bear it any longer and slammed his cane to the ground.
Gu Xian pulled Xie Yunjing to sit down with him, not giving him a chance to escape unscathed.
Before he could even sit down, Mr. Xie couldn't wait to scold him: "You're really getting more and more outrageous! It was fine if you were just idling around all day before, but now that you're working in the company, are you here to mess around?"
"Thank you, Grandpa." Even though it was a bit embarrassing, Gu Xian still emphasized, "I didn't volunteer."
"Who are you in this company? What's your status? If you hadn't behaved inappropriately, would they have the guts to attack you?" Mr. Xie firmly believed that "seeing is believing." He said coldly, "I used to think you were different from your father!"
Gu Xian raised his head in surprise: "Huh?"
"What?" The old man glared at him angrily, almost rolling his eyes. "Your father is that idiot. If you say anything to him, I'll burn an extra stick of incense for your grandfather! If he had a 'first love' in the first place, he shouldn't have agreed to the marriage with your mother. If he agreed to the marriage, he shouldn't have had an ambiguous relationship with that 'first love' while your mother was still alive, and ended up giving birth to a little idiot like Gu Leyu!"
The old man was clearly a bit mad, pointing his cane at Gu Xian and continuing to scold him: "Look at yourself, what were you like before, and what are you like now! Not only do you not know how to make progress, but now you're even imitating your father's promiscuity!"
Gu Xian's expression was a little stiff: "Grandpa Xie, don't you dislike homosexuality?"
"What's wrong with homosexuality? Can homosexuals get married and still have affairs?" Old Master Xie's eyebrows trembled with excitement. "If you're married, you have to take responsibility. Those who have affairs should be arrested and thrown into a pig cage!"
"Haha." Gu Xian laughed dryly, "So, Grandpa Xie, you are the leader of the Men's Ethics Squad. I'm so sorry, so sorry."
Xie Yunjing admired him for daring to joke with his grandfather at this time.
He deliberately leaned close to Gu Xian's ear and whispered sarcastically, "My grandfather wants to catch you and throw you into the pig cage now."
“…”
You didn't even say anything back?
Xie Yunjing turned his head to look at Gu Xian, and then was stunned in surprise.
Gu Xian's eyes were surprisingly fragile, swaying slightly, like... like a small animal whose hiding place had been found.
Although he always wanted to see Gu Xian admit defeat and show weakness - instead of still having an infuriating arrogant look and saying "wait for next time" in a fierce manner after losing, but that shouldn't be because of others.
Even if this "someone else" is his grandfather.
Xie Yunjing heard his own voice uncontrollably say: "Grandpa, even if we really have to put it in the pig cage, we should follow the principle of first come first served and close relatives."
Someone from the Xie family should have been impregnated long ago.
Old Master Xie showed a stung expression, snorted, and said stubbornly: "If it weren't illegal to put it in a pig cage now..."
Mr. Xie's guilty conscience allowed the little animal to find a safe hiding place. Gu Xian's vulnerability seemed to be fleeting. He showed an interested expression: "Is there anything I don't know?"
"There are many things you don't know." Xie Yunjing successfully received a glare from Gu Xian.
"Thank you, Grandpa," Gu Xian said in a brisk tone, clearly in retaliation. "Even if we have to put someone in a pig cage, we can't just casually accuse someone, right? Since you don't believe me, why not ask him?"
Gu Xian pointed at Ke Silin. Ever since Xie Yunjing forcibly pulled him away, the crazy little brat had instantly quieted down. He lay motionless under Cumber's watch, his eyes empty, as if he had lost all hope and vitality. Even with Gu Xian pointing at him and everyone watching, he didn't react at all.
"Why do you want me to terminate my contract with you?"
Gu Xian ended his autism with just one sentence.
Coslin's behavior did not seem like he was being self-indulgent and thought that he was interested in him. After getting rid of the shock and crisis, Gu Xian immediately realized the real purpose of this little brat.
"Terminate the contract..." Coslin murmured, and the tears that had just stopped for a while began to flow violently again.
He suddenly broke free from Cumber's control, fell to his knees with a thud, and then kowtowed hard.
"Terminate the contract! Please, no matter who you are, please terminate my contract!" He spoke incoherently, his forehead hitting the ground with a shocking sound. "I don't want to be a star anymore. I want to go home. Please let me go!"
Facing the suspicious looks of the other three, Gu Xian almost wanted to surrender: "I really didn't do anything! I'm just like you, I don't know anything!"
Xie Yunjing forcibly stopped Ke Silin again: "You can tell us what happened first."
To prove his innocence, Gu Xian rarely agreed with Xie Yunjing: "That's right, and didn't I tell you already? If you want to terminate the contract, just go find Wei Wenxian..."
However, these words were like stepping on a landmine, and Ke Silin collapsed again: "It can't be solved, it can't be solved! I can't afford the penalty, and Mr. Wei won't let me go!"
The operation of making a fortune by using high liquidated damages is not uncommon in the entertainment industry, but Gu Xian did not ignore it. When mentioning the liquidated damages, Coslin was just helpless and desperate, but when mentioning the three words "Mr. Wei", he burst into amazing fear.
Coslin is a little-known person in the company, and even a small shrimp who can't make any waves in the entire entertainment industry. Such an artist is not worth going to great lengths to tie down tightly.
"Coslin, if you really want me to terminate your contract, calm down and explain it to me."
If this little brat continues to have this emotional breakdown and talk nonsense, they might not be able to figure out what's going on until dark.
Gu Xian gave him a glimmer of hope, and his desperate eyes instantly lit up: "Will you really terminate the contract with me?"
Gu Xian nodded: "But you have to explain to me exactly what's going on. What did Wei Wenxian do to make you think of using unspoken rules against me so that I would dislike you and even terminate your contract."
Coslin trembled his lips, and an obvious evasive expression appeared on his face.
"Just tell me what you have to say!" Old Master Xie tapped his cane again impatiently.
Perhaps it was because Mr. Xie was full of righteousness, or perhaps it was because he was majestic enough, Coslin shuddered for a moment, finally regained his senses, and began to explain the whole story with normal logic.
The sky-high penalty for breach of contract was not unexpected. What was truly shocking was what Coslin said next.
Ke Silin started crying again, but this time he wiped his tears while continuing to say: "...Mr. Wei..."
"Wei Wenxian." Gu Xian interrupted him. Changing the respectful title for the person you fear is a way to offset fear.
"Wei Wenxian." Ke Silin repeated himself, and indeed, he seemed to have gained some courage. "Wei Wenxian said that he was taking us to auditions and to build relationships with the partners, but in fact, he was taking us..."
He choked up a bit and said, "Let the directors and bosses choose. Once we're chosen, we have to follow them and do whatever they ask us to do..."
Coslin spoke cryptically, but no one present could fail to understand.
Gu Xian finally understood why Guangyao had not gone bankrupt even though it had not produced any decent celebrities or works, and could even buy sofas worth hundreds of thousands of yuan to please him, the "prince" who had fallen from the sky.
Wei Wenxian turned Guangyao into a high-end brothel!
"How outrageous!" For Mr. Xie, the leader of the male ethics class who cannot tolerate even extramarital infidelity, such a thing is simply unscrupulous.
"When you say 'we', do you mean all the artists at Guangyao are treated like this?"
"Yes." Perhaps having gotten the most embarrassing part out of her mouth, Ke Silin stopped crying. Her eyes were red as she continued with a self-deprecating attitude, "It's not that no one wants to leave, but firstly, we can't afford the penalty. Secondly, even if someone raised the money, Wei Wenxian would use the 'photo' to threaten us and prevent us from leaving the company."
The "photo" with emphasis is most likely something like a fruit photo.
"Nonsense!" Old Master Xie was quite angry at the lack of resistance. "This is a crime! Don't you know how to call the police?"
"Wei Wenxian threatened us that if we called the police, those 'photos' would be posted online immediately." Ke Silin lowered his head, his tone filled with the sadness of buried dreams. "Everyone signed with Guangyao, hoping to become famous one day. If those 'photos' were to get out, we would all be ruined."
"Is it worse than continuing to be a prostitute who can be summoned and dismissed at will?" Mr. Xie obviously couldn't understand how someone could fall into the quagmire and not think about climbing out.
He was suddenly stunned and asked doubtfully: "Aren't you a man? What does this have to do with you?"
Xie Yunjing reminded helplessly: "Grandpa."
Remembering that his favorite grandson was a homophobic man, Mr. Xie, the head of the Derby squad, his face suddenly became colorful. He muttered in dissatisfaction: "Where do so many homosexuals come from?"
He then glared at another "homosexual" present: "You don't know anything, and this is how you work in the company?"
Gu Xian touched his nose and admitted the crime of dereliction of duty.
He looked at Ke Silin and said, "Of course I can let Wei Wenxian terminate your contract, but have you ever considered that even if you get rid of your contract with Guangyao, your 'photo' will still be in Wei Wenxian's hands."
Coslin's face just showed joy, but turned pale again in an instant.
"If you want to completely get rid of Wei Wenxian, calling the police is the only way. Ke Silin." Gu Xian called his name seriously again, "Do you have evidence that Wei Wenxian coerced you? I mean, are you willing to come with us to report it to the police?"
"I..." Coslin smiled bitterly, "I don't care anymore... Of course I am willing. But there are other people. I can't just..."
Gu Xian interrupted him: "Your friends are stuck in a quagmire, don't you want to help them?"
Ke Silin was stunned for a moment, and finally answered firmly: "I want to!"
On the way to the Public Security Bureau, Gu Xian asked Ke Silin, "How did you come up with the idea of using unspoken rules against me to get me to terminate my contract with you?"
When Ke Silin first approached him, they hadn't spoken at all. He was genuinely curious about how Ke Silin had figured out that actively flinging himself at him would resent him. Hadn't the brat ever considered what if he was actually a pervert?
The Xie family's understated yet luxurious car made Ke Silin a little uneasy. "It's Sister Hui... The day you first arrived, I heard Sister Hui lose her temper with someone, saying she was trying to seduce you, but you ungraciously said you wanted to terminate your contract with her."
Gu Xian frowned slightly and was about to ask Wu Yanhui what was going on when he heard Xie Yunjing, who was sitting next to him, suddenly speak.
"It seems like you have a very fulfilling life in Guangyao."
Gu Xian rolled his eyes at him and said unhappily, "Do you want this blessing?"
The author has something to say: Who is polluting the air? Oh, it's you again.
