The little guy who had his cheek pinched seemed even happier and nodded: "Okay."
Aunt Chen delivered breakfast around 8 a.m.
Liu Nian personally fed the little guy.
After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Aunt Chen told Liu Nian to go home and rest, and that she would look after things here.
Liu Nian, knowing she had other commitments for the day, didn't linger. After giving a few instructions, she left the hospital.
She was just about to go to the company when she received the message from her agent.
Her contract is expiring; it's time to talk to her boss.
Jiang Tao asked her to come to the company at nine o'clock to discuss the contract.
The year was more than half an hour late in arriving.
The company receptionist let her in immediately upon seeing her.
"Miss Liu Nian, the boss is in his office. You can just go up there."
As the company's most popular artist, Liu Nian is a well-known figure among all employees.
She smiled and made a heart shape with her hands for the receptionist before getting on the elevator.
The receptionist who received her heart gesture was so excited that she clutched her heart and couldn't contain her joy.
Since signing with the company, Liu Nian has rarely stepped into the company. Usually, her agent, Jiang Tao, tells her about any activities, and she decides whether to participate based on her mood.
When she arrived at the company, she felt quite unfamiliar with it.
The president's office was on the top floor. As soon as Liu Nian got out of the elevator, the president's secretary came over to lead her there.
"Miss Liu Nian, the president is waiting for you in his office."
The secretary's professional fake smile made Liu Nian feel somewhat uncomfortable.
She waved her hand, indicating that she didn't need to follow. She still remembered where the president's office was, since she had been there once before.
A capable woman was sitting in the CEO's office. When Liu Nian entered, she felt that her aura was somewhat oppressive.
As expected, the aura of a strong woman is different; even she was slightly intimidated.
"This is the contract that has expired."
The woman spoke without looking up, and it was a mature, sophisticated voice.
Liu Nian looked at the contract on the table, pondered for a moment, picked it up, and prepared to leave.
The woman sitting at the desk finally spoke up after hearing her movements.
"Aren't you planning to discuss a contract renewal?"
"No, thank you." Liu Nian refused without even thinking.
"Why?" the woman asked, puzzled. "If you are not satisfied with the amount we quoted, you can ask for more, and we will give you a satisfactory contract."
"Your company is very good, but I plan to take a break for a while." It's time to spend some quality time with the male leads, otherwise, who will she complain to when they grow up and become harder to manage!
Although raising children requires a lot of money, her flower shop is currently doing well, and with what she has saved over the past hundred years, it's enough to support the three of them for the rest of their lives.
"If you need to take a break, the company will approve it." After a pause, the woman added, "How long do you want to take the break?"
"About ten years!" We'll have to wait until the male leads are all in high school before we can talk about it.
The woman was shocked by Liu Nian's words and looked at him, asking, "Are you in a relationship?"
Liu Nian was taken aback and asked, "Why do you ask that?"
"If you weren't in a relationship and planning to get married, why would you want to take such a long break?"
Liu Nian is currently enjoying great popularity, having been a sensation for five consecutive years and never lacking in viewership. If it weren't for her relationship, marriage, and children, no one would choose to retire at this time; it would be tantamount to ruining their own future.
Which comeback artist will have the same level of popularity as before? Her generation will pass, and a new generation of stars will naturally emerge. No one will remember her past glory.
Time has fallen silent.
If she doesn't speak, others will.
"The company doesn't object to you dating, and if you want to get married and have children, the company will naturally give you enough time to rest." The woman looked at her: "Renewing the contract will be beneficial and harmless to you. The contract terms will remain the same, and two additional clauses mentioned above will be added. What do you think?"
"I'm open to renewing my contract, but I need a lot of personal time. I won't participate in company events unless they're very important. Other schedules will depend on my mood. If you can accept that, we can renew."
"Okay, wasn't that last sentence entirely your decision? The company didn't force you, did it?"
Liu Nian: "..." That's right.
Finally, the two parties renewed the contract for another five years, with two additional clauses, roughly meaning that the company would not interfere with the artist's romantic relationships, but only if it did not affect the company's interests.
