Chapter 195 The Bait Has Been Taken
Yang Heng looked troubled. "My ancestor, you suddenly called me saying you needed to find a place to stay. I've already done my best. Please make do for now!"
"I don't care!" Zhou Yu gritted his teeth. "I want to stay in a hotel, the presidential suite!"
"Are you sure? With your current popularity, you should be staying in a five-star hotel, costing over 20,000 yuan a day. Do you have that kind of money right now?"
Zhou Yuchu: "..."
"Just bear with it," Yang Heng said. "I've already called a cleaning service for you. They'll come and clean it this afternoon, so you'll be quite comfortable."
Zhou Yu stared intently at Yang Heng.
Yang Heng, however, showed no fear. He patted her shoulder in a Zen-like manner and said, "It's just temporary. Adjust your emotions. Anyway, you don't have any activities these two days, so just treat it as a time for self-cultivation. I have something to do, so I'm leaving."
Yang Heng turned and left.
Zhou Yuchu looked at the house and was so angry that she wanted to explode on the spot, but Xiao Zhang was still there, so she could only grit her teeth and endure it!
Xiao Zhang comforted her, "Sister Xiao Chu, it's okay. You're so outstanding, this is only temporary. Please sit down and rest, I'll take care of the things."
Zhou Yuchu looked at Xiao Zhang, closed her eyes, and softened her tone, "Xiao Zhang, thank you. I never thought that in the end, you would be the only one who truly cared for me."
Xiao Zhang felt extremely sorry for her idol, seeing him reduced to this state, she felt that the world was unfair.
"Sister Xiaochu, it's their fault for treating you like this! I believe in you. Talented people will always be recognized, and you will definitely make a comeback!"
Zhou Yu smiled and said, "I hope so."
"Yes, I will!" Xiao Zhang gave Zhou Yuchu a thumbs-up. "Sister Xiaochu, you have to believe in yourself."
Zhou Yuchu was in no mood to deal with Xiao Zhang's silly ramblings. She glanced at the time and said, "I have to go out for a bit. Can you help me get ready at home?"
"good."
Zhou Yuchu left, pulling a suitcase.
The suitcase was full of jewelry.
She went to the Shen family.
Shen Chuxi has recently become incredibly popular due to the competition, and the entire Shen family has benefited greatly from this.
The entire Shen family now dotes on and cherishes Shen Chuxi.
However, apart from Shen Chuxi and Zhou Yuchu, no one else knew that the songs Shen Chuxi participated in were written by Shen Qingshu.
They all believed that all of Shen Chuxi's songs were composed by Zhou Yuchu.
Therefore, the Shen family now has an excellent attitude towards Zhou Yuchu.
After Shen Chuxi became famous, the old lady of the Shen family, who had always favored sons over daughters, changed her attitude towards Shen Chuxi drastically. Even Lin Yunmei, who had always been looked down upon, was able to hold her head high and speak loudly in the Shen family!
On the contrary, Shen Yanying, who has always been highly valued by Old Madam Shen, has recently made a wrong decision, which has brought a huge impact to the already poorly managed Shen family business!
As a result, Madam Shen was extremely disappointed in Shen Yanying.
The Shen family warmly welcomed Zhou Yuchu upon his arrival.
According to Lin Yunmei's line of descent, Shen Chuxi and Zhou Yuchu are cousins, and thus relatives of the Shen family.
Grandma Shen praised Zhou Yuchu highly.
"Xiao Chu is very promising. It's good that she didn't learn bad things from your mother."
Lin Lanyi's affair became the talk of the town. When Old Madam Shen first found out, she even made sarcastic remarks about Lin Yunmei because of it.
But after Shen Chuxi became famous, and learned that Zhou Yuchu was the creator, Old Mrs. Shen's attitude changed drastically.
When she saw Zhou Yuchu arrive, Grandma Shen started to fawn over him, asking him all sorts of questions.
Zhou Yuchu suppressed his nausea and played along with the old lady for a while, then said that he had something to discuss with Shen Chuxi about the competition.
Upon hearing this, Madam Shen dared not delay them any longer.
…
In the room, Zhou Yuchu opened her suitcase.
Shen Chuxi was dumbfounded when she saw the box full of jewelry!
"What is this for?"
"I'll sell these to you." Zhou Yuchu grabbed Shen Chuxi's hand and said urgently, "These should be worth tens of millions in total, but you only need to give me five million!"
Shen Chuxi was shocked, "Where did I get five million?!"
“How could you, the daughter of the Shen family, not even have five million?” Zhou Yuchu frowned. “And you’re so famous now!”
"It's no use for me to be famous. I don't have a management company yet. A few companies have wanted to sign me recently, but you know, all these songs of ours are stolen. I'm afraid..."
Zhou Yu was initially disappointed in his son.
But now she desperately needs money.
She rolled her eyes and said, "How about this, I'll recommend you to our company. You can sign with us, and we can look out for each other in the future."
"But what if your boss finds out..."
"Don't worry, I've already told my agent that we bought these songs together."
Zhou Yuchu said, "These kinds of things are often done in the entertainment industry. With our current fame, the company will definitely choose to protect us. As long as we continue to have value, the company won't really investigate how this song came about!"
Shen Chuxi was intrigued and said, "Then, can you ask for me?"
"OK."
Zhou Yu immediately called Yang Heng.
After listening, Yang Heng said very decisively, "Then bring Miss Chen to the company later. The big boss happens to be here today."
"Okay!" Zhou Yuchu hung up the phone and smiled at Shen Chuxi, "The big boss happens to be at the company today, and my agent wants us to go there now!"
"Really!" Shen Chuxi's eyes lit up. "Is your big boss really willing to sign me?"
“I personally recommended you, so the big boss will definitely sign you.” Zhou Yuchu glanced at the suitcase on the ground. “I left the jewelry behind. I’ll try my best to raise your signing bonus later. Once the contract is signed, you give me five million, and all the jewelry will be yours.”
"Great!" Shen Chuxi hugged Zhou Yuchu. "Sister Chu, you are truly my benefactor!"
Zhou Yuchu smiled and said, "We are cousins, so we are family. It is only right that I help you."
Shen Chuxi nodded happily.
The Shen family was delighted to hear that Zhou Yuchu was going to take Shen Chuxi to the company to discuss signing a contract.
Lin Yunmei, being a mother herself, felt that such a big deal as signing a contract required careful consideration.
"Should we have our company's legal counsel go with you?"
"No need, Sister Xiao Chu is familiar with the company's big boss!" Shen Chuxi looked at Lin Yunmei and said confidently, "She will help me maximize my interests. If we bring a lawyer, the big boss will think we are wary of him!"
"But……"
"Alright! Shut up!"
Madam Shen interrupted Lin Yunmei, glaring at her. "What do you know, you woman! Xiao Chu has been in the entertainment industry for many years, and she got to where she is today entirely on her own. Even if you don't believe in that big boss, you still have to believe in our Xiao Chu!"
Lin Yunmei lowered her head after being scolded, saying, "I'm sorry, I worried too much."
Zhou Yuchu smiled gently, "Auntie, don't worry, Xiaoxi is also my sister, I will definitely be very careful."
Lin Yunmei nodded, "Xiao Chu, I know you're the best. Our Xiao Xi is new to the entertainment industry and doesn't understand many of the rules. You, as her older sister, have to take good care of her!"
Zhou Yu nodded, "I will, Auntie, please don't worry."
Madam Shen waved her hand, "Xiao Chu, you and Xiao Xi go quickly, don't keep the big boss waiting!"
"good."
Zhou Yuchu left with Shen Chuxi.
Grandma Shen watched the two figures walk away side by side, stroked her cane and nodded with great satisfaction, "Raising a girl is just like raising Xiao Chu, independent and self-reliant, and she still knows how to think of her family even after achieving success. Xiao Xi is lucky to have such a cousin."
Lin Yunmei lowered her head and rolled her eyes fiercely.

After finishing an online meeting, Shen Qingshu received a call from someone whose contact name was 'Seventh Master'.
She answered the phone, "Seventh Master."
A deep, resonant voice came from the other end: "The bait has been taken."
Upon hearing this, Shen Qingshu smiled faintly and said, "Okay, I understand. From now on, let Yang Heng proceed according to the original plan."
