Chapter 56 You Can't Provoke This
The opportunity to make money is clearly in front of me, but he wants me to give it up. Why?
Jiang Yichen tapped the tabletop with his fingertips, looking calm and relaxed.
"Gu Mo, I gave you the opportunity to make quick money a long time ago, but you didn't cherish it."
My body froze and I stood there in a daze.
He was talking about being a lover.
A feeling of bitterness quietly welled up in my heart.
But I don't want to be controlled by him, and I don't want to make money by having sex with him.
His voice turned cold, "Why did you suddenly run away last night? Did I lend you the money for nothing?"
I felt guilty about what happened last night, so I softened my attitude and answered with gritted teeth, "I will definitely pay you back as soon as possible."
Jiang Yichen's mood did not improve because of my words. Instead, he said in a deep voice, "How are you going to pay it back? Are you going to let Song Le pay it back for you?"
I knew he was doing this on purpose, so I repeated, "I will pay it back, you don't need to worry about it."
Knowing that continuing the stalemate with him would lead to no good results, I decided to leave.
However, as soon as I turned around, he suddenly said, "Liang Xiaorou is not someone you can mess with now."
Hearing this, a surge of anger rose in my heart.
No matter what happens, the first thing he thinks of is always how to ridicule me.
I know he looks down on me, but this is an opportunity for me and I don't want to give up.
I responded to him stubbornly: "I'm going to do it."
Jiang Yichen was very dissatisfied with my reaction. He immediately frowned and scolded me.
"Gu Mo, you are always so self-righteous."
He was mocking me and thought I was not worthy of working with Leung Siu-rou.
His thin lips moved, but I couldn't hear anything.
I interrupted impatiently, "That's my own business, you don't have to worry about it. When I signed the contract, it was written in the document that as long as it doesn't affect the company, the anchor's private time will not be interfered with."
It is clearly written in the document.
I had no intention of resisting Jiang Yichen, but I had to do so in order to make money.
That high endorsement fee can relieve a lot of burden for me.
Seeing that I had made up my mind, Jiang Yichen deliberately raised his voice and warned me sternly.
"You can't sign this endorsement."
But I didn't take his words to heart at all.
I looked at him with anger in my eyes and said, "You can't stop me."
After I finished speaking, I slammed the door and left, ignoring his face that was so dark that water could drip out of it.
He is the king of Tongcheng, but he is not my king. Why should I care about him?
When Lao Mo heard us arguing, he hurried over.
There was a hint of worry in his tone, and he deliberately lowered his voice to ask, "What's wrong? Why did you quarrel with Mr. Jiang?"
I tried my best to control my emotions and tell the truth.
"The first prize in the dance competition I participated in before had an endorsement. The competition was hosted by Liang Xiaorou. She contacted me yesterday."
After hearing what I said, Lao Mo guessed a little bit. He deliberately tried to test me, "Have you decided to participate?"
Hearing this, I showed dissatisfaction on my face again, and said indignantly, "I want to participate, but Jiang Yichen disagrees. But when we signed the contract, it clearly stated that the company does not care about the anchor's private affairs. Why should he stop me?"
After learning about my thoughts, Lao Mo said with concern, "In fact, there are many anchors in the company who open small accounts to live broadcast and earn extra money, but I have never seen such things as endorsements."
But I had made up my mind and had to go.
Perhaps Lao Mo felt it was inconvenient to talk here, so he pulled me to a corner aside.
"You can indeed get a high fee for this job, but I think you should think about it carefully. After all, Liang Xiaorou was once your enemy. What if she did something to the contract..."
It's not like I haven't thought about these things, but now the creditors of the Gu family are pressing me hard, and I have no choice at all.
I sighed slightly and whispered, "I'm short of money right now, and I don't want to give up."
"Then you should pay more attention to the contract and be careful not to fall into a trap."
I nodded seriously and went back to the studio with him to continue the live broadcast.
It was only after the live broadcast ended that I found the time to call Liang Xiaorou.
The other party seemed to have expected that I would take the initiative to contact him. He chuckled and said with a smug tone, "What's wrong? Have you thought it through?"
I bit my lip, struggled internally, and whispered, "I promise you, I'll take this endorsement."
If you have money you have to make it, otherwise you’d be a real bastard if you don’t have money.
After getting the answer, Liang Xiaorou deliberately mocked me again.
"Gu Mo, I thought you were so noble, but I didn't expect you to bow down for money."
I didn't want to waste my time with her, "What should I do next?"
Liang Xiaorou responded casually: "After get off work, come to my place to sign the contract and audition."
I didn't think any more about it and just agreed.
Not long after, I went to Liang Xiaorou's company.
When she saw it, she threw a contract at me.
"Take a look at it. If you think it's okay, you can sign it."
I was worried that Liang Xiaorou would set a trap for me, so I read this contract very carefully.
Just as I was checking, Liang Xiaorou suddenly asked, "Did Jiang Yichen agree to your endorsement?"
I stopped what I was doing for a moment, and then answered as a matter of course.
"It's just a part-time contract. Jiang Yichen has no right to interfere with my life after get off work."
We're divorced anyway, so what does it have to do with him?
Hearing my answer, Liang Xiaorou's lips curled up into a sinister smile, but she returned to normal in just a moment.
I know that the Liang family made their fortune through the clothing business.
The contract that Liang Xiaorou gave me also stated that it was a clothing endorsement.
But what surprised me was that the price she offered was extremely high, ridiculously high.
I frowned, feeling something was wrong, and couldn't help but ask, "Why is the endorsement fee so high?"
Liang Xiaorou leaned back in her chair and said with disdain, "It's just a little money. I don't even care about it. It's just a reward."
Hearing this, I couldn't help but feel a little sad.
I have said this to countless people before, but now I have become the kind of person who makes a living by squeezing through other people's fingers.
It's really like heaven one day and hell the next day.
I roughly went through the contract and thought it was ok, then I wrote my name on the last page.
After I signed the contract, Liang Xiaorou took me directly to the audition.
When I saw all kinds of models in the studio wearing sexy lingerie, I realized that something was wrong with this endorsement.
They are all cool and revealing underwear.
My body stiffened involuntarily, and I subconsciously wanted to run away.
Liang Xiaorou immediately noticed that something was wrong with me. She looked at me with disdain and said calmly, "I can give you a chance to regret it. You can tear up the contract and pretend it never existed."
