After Bai Xi finished eating the apple, she casually threw the apple core into the trash can.
Just then, her phone rang; it was an unknown number calling.
After Bai Xi answered the call, she realized it was that same agent again.
As expected of an agent, he had already made harsh statements and broken ties with her, yet he still had the audacity to come looking for her now.
"Bai Xi, our boss wants to have a talk with you, what do you think..."
The next second, "click," the phone was hung up.
broker,"……"
Bai Xi also blocked his phone number.
At a certain studio, Jiang Gu's management team saw a trending topic related to their artist.
The agent said, "This woman seems to have gotten smarter; she even knows how to ride on your coattails."
He didn't know all of Bai Xi's trending topics, only that Jiang Gu's name appeared in her trending topics, and he thought she was trying to ride on the popularity of his artist.
Some people scoffed, "Last time that woman was still being coy and wouldn't go with you, but now she's figured out how to market herself as a fortune teller to whitewash her past scandals."
"What's going on? Has that woman changed her persona?" Jiang Gu asked.
He hasn't paid much attention to entertainment news these past few days, having just returned from spending time with a minor celebrity.
The agent said, "We learned that she had been terminated by Dagua Entertainment, and then she announced yesterday that she was retiring from the entertainment industry to become a fortune-telling live streamer."
"Fortune-telling livestreamer?" Jiang Gu scoffed. "Marketing this kind of persona, aren't you afraid of it backfiring too quickly?"
The agent joined in the mockery, "Since Bai Xi dares to pretend to be a virtuous and chaste woman in front of you, why don't we send an online army to smear her with more dirt? Isn't she supposed to be a fortune-telling anchor? Can't she even predict her own scandals?"
Jiang Gu leaned back on the sofa. "Let's make a call and ask first. If she's still unwilling to compromise, we'll take action tomorrow."
The agent laughed and said, "Okay, it seems you're still interested in that woman. You've even forced her to retire from the entertainment industry, but you still won't let her go."
Jiang Gu snorted coldly, "She's the first person who dared to refuse me and embarrass me to my face."
As soon as he finished speaking, his cell phone rang in his pocket.
After dialing, a woman's sweet voice came from the other end of the phone, "Jiang Gu, have you left yet? I'm almost at the hotel."
"I'll be there soon. Take a shower and wait for me." Jiang Guyi smiled, then hung up the phone and got up.
The agent joked, "What? Haven't you gotten tired of that internet celebrity yet?"
Jiang Gu remained expressionless. "I'm already tired of her, but she has five million fans, and they're very loyal. I still need her to maintain my popularity."
Ever since that internet celebrity who specializes in editing videos of entertainment stars got involved with him, all of her videos have been his personal stills, film clips, and variety show clips.
She carefully selected all the photos, choosing the perfect angles to take them, which brought him a huge following.
"By the way, remember to take all necessary precautions this time, and whatever you do, don't let those paparazzi take pictures of me again," Jiang Gu said sternly.
"Know."
They are in the same boat; the interests of the agent and the artist are intertwined. If the artist's reputation is ruined, the agent will also suffer.
Making an artist famous is not easy; it requires a lot of effort and energy.
They managed to capture it once before, but fortunately there was no concrete evidence. In addition, their public relations team clarified the situation in time, preventing the public opinion from developing unchecked.
After seeing Jiang Gu off, the agent took out his phone and called Bai Xi.
Bai Xi's phone rang again, and it was another call from an unknown number.
She didn't even answer; she just slammed the phone down.
Jiang Gu's agent, "..."
He called again, but the phone rang only once before being hung up.
"..."
He called for the third time, but she hung up on him quickly again, which annoyed him.
Bai Xi recognized the number; she couldn't possibly not know it belonged to Jiang Gu. Not answering the call meant the woman was still foolishly resisting.
The agent snorted and, taking advantage of the fact that Jiang Gu hadn't arrived at the hotel yet, called him. "She's not answering."
A hint of malice flashed in Jiang Gu's eyes, "If she won't take the bait, then let's use online trolls. We'll make sure her live stream crashes and burns today!"
"Okay, don't worry, I know this stuff," the agent said. He was holding a grudge after she hung up on him three times in a row.
In the small bungalow.
Seeing that Bai Xi had hung up the phone several times, Lin Xinxi went over and asked, "Sister Bai Xi, is it another agent from Da Gua Entertainment?"
"I don't know," Bai Xi replied.
Lin Xinxi leaned closer and glanced at her phone. She saw a familiar phone number on the screen that hadn't been closed yet.
"This...isn't this Jiang Gu's agent's phone call?"
She was all too familiar with this number; every time she saw it in the past, she felt afraid.
No matter how much she apologized, the other party wouldn't let her go.
"Is it the person who framed you and tried to sexually harass you?" Bai Xi asked.
"Mm." Lin Xinxi nodded.
When she died, she was still full of resentment towards him.
Bai Xi said, "Since they've come to us like this, let's start with him."
She still remembered the promise she made to Lin Xinxi.
...
An hour before Bai Xi was about to start her live stream, another trending topic quietly appeared online.
#A collective apology statement from anti-fans#
[Waaah... Is it too late to apologize now?]
I apologize for swearing at the streamer yesterday. Please don't give me nightmares again tonight.
[Me too, I've had a really bad day. At first, I didn't think it was the streamer, but then I heard a voice in my head saying I'd offended someone. I didn't think I'd bullied anyone or swore at anyone today. It's just that last night, when the streamer was live, I hated seeing her and cursed at her a few times. I never expected that my bad luck would start like this.]
[I was wrong! I shouldn't have cursed the streamer. At first, I didn't think about it that way, but several of my friends said that when Bai Xi's scandals came out, they couldn't help but join in and curse her, saying she deserved it and it was karma. I didn't expect karma to come so quickly.]
[...]
The comment section was quickly flooded with apologies from the haters.
The passersby were all stunned; it was unprecedented for a hater to apologize so proactively.
What's going on? I thought I'd gone to the wrong place.
I thought the weather outside had changed.
Is that streamer really that amazing? Are you sure he didn't hire someone to perform?
After Bai Xi's live stream went live, the number of viewers skyrocketed and her popularity soared, a terrifying speed that made other new streamers extremely envious.
[Waaaaah... Streamer, I've finally waited for you to start streaming!]
Me too, I'm so excited!
Bai Xi's fair, delicate, and beautiful face appeared in the live broadcast room, making her look even more ethereal and beautiful.
