Chapter 5



But the heroine is the heroine after all, with powerful halo and golden fingers. According to the plot, the negative public opinion on Weibo will take a 180-degree turn after a passerby released videos and photos of the car accident scene this afternoon. One of the photos, in which the heroine is kneeling on the ground taking care of the hero in a pure white dress covered in blood at the scene of a car accident, will go viral on major platforms, gain a lot of popularity among passers-by, and help the heroine win the domestic endorsement of BV.

Xie Yang seemed to be thinking about something.

It was this wave that accumulated enough favor points for the heroine to exchange for the initial favorability of several people. After that, the heroine will successively use her skills on the hero, the male supporting role, a big director, and a program host, and further light up the acting skill tree...

"Why don't you use the phone I gave you?"

Xie Yang came back to his senses, exited Weibo, looked at Qiu Xing who suddenly spoke beside him, and replied: "What do you want to use it for? Is it convenient for you to locate my position like you did yesterday?"

"You're not stupid." Qiu Xingmoming's expression was no longer cold. He stretched out his body and leaned back on the chair, saying, "I spent a lot of money to buy you. If I don't tie you up with a chain, what if you run away? Wouldn't I be at a loss?"

Xie Yang asked: "How much is it?"

"Didn't your dad tell you?"

Xie Yang shook his head.

Qiu Xing raised his eyebrows: "I don't think you would understand business matters even if I told you. To match your intelligence, I reluctantly gave you a discount. In order to buy you, I gave your father about 500 million yuan in capital that can continue to make money. Xie Yang, you are not cheap."

It was indeed a high price, but that didn’t scare Xie Yang.

He looked directly at Qiu Xing and said, "It's not that I'm not cheap, it's that in your mother's eyes, your life is very precious. Also, since it's me who was sold, shouldn't you give me the money directly?"

Qiu Xing was pleased by his statement and teased him: "You want it?"

“I just want cash.”

"Then you have to think clearly. If you are given this money, your father's company, which is in urgent need of funds to fill the gap, will have to declare bankruptcy immediately. Can you bear it?"

Xie Yang's face was full of indifference: "Don't test me, I'm serious. He can sell me out, why should I be reluctant?"

"But what can I do?" Qiu Xing pretended to be distressed. "Last time we met to get the marriage certificate, I had already given the deposit to your father, about 300 million. This meeting today is to give him the remaining 200 million balance."

Xie Yang said straightforwardly: "Give me the balance and take back the deposit."

Qiu Xing was really relieved now, but he still pretended to be bothered and said, "Do you think the deposit is so easy to collect? After all this, I have lost very little."

"No matter how much of the deposit you take back, it's all yours. I don't want it. By the way, I can also help speed up the process of Jie's bankruptcy. The brand of an old hotel should still be worth something."

Qiu Xing paused and looked at Jie Yang.

Xie Yang asked calmly: "Do you want to do this business?"

"So," Qiu Xing pulled at his shirt collar, his lips curled up, "are you going to sell yourself to me?"

“I had to do it.”

"You think you're worth 500 million?"

"Your mother thinks I'm worth it."

Qiu Xing looked at him for a long time, then suddenly burst into laughter. He leaned back in his chair, patted his thigh with his left hand, and the sick look on his face seemed to be alleviated by the smile.

Xie Yang looked at Qiu Xing quietly, waiting for him to finish laughing.

The deep, hearty laughter lasted for a long time.

As he was laughing, Qiu Xing suddenly turned his head and started coughing. The red spots on his face caused by his smile faded away and turned pale again. The assistant He Jun in the front seat quickly opened a bottle of water and handed it over.

Qiu Xing took the water and drank two sips, then calmed down his breathing and said, "Do it! This kind of business that is sure to make money must be done! He Jun, destroy the contract prepared for Chairman Jie."

He Jun had been shocked by the content of their conversation. Seeing that they had really finalized the ruthless "cheating plan", he labeled Jie Yang as someone who was not easy to mess with. After responding, he took out two contracts from his bag, tore them up and threw them into the trash can in the car.

"Okay." Qiu Xing turned his head to look at Jie Yang and threw the water bottle aside. "Now, let's talk about the new contract between you and me."

Half an hour later, Xie Yang entered Xie Xiuding's box with Qiu Xing's black card in his pocket.

Xie Xiu anxiously looked behind him, and seeing no one, the attentive smile on his face disappeared, and he frowned and asked, "Where is Mr. Qiu?"

"No, the doctor forbids him to eat outside food." Xie Yang walked to the table, pulled out a chair and sat down, glanced at the sumptuous dishes on the table, picked up the chopsticks and started eating without any hesitation.

"What are you eating! What are you eating!" Jie Xiu was anxious. He sat beside him and took away the food he was about to pick up. "How can you be so useless? Really! Didn't I tell you last time to report the progress with Qiu Xing every day? How dare you turn off your phone! And that boy band of yours, quit it as soon as possible and don't go to school. With your pig brain, you won't be able to learn anything anyway. I heard that Qiu Xing's mother is not in good health. Since Qiu Xing doesn't like you to follow him, then you can go over and take care of the old lady."

Xie Yang's chopsticks fell empty, he looked at Xie Xiu's fat face and asked, "Isn't Xie Yang your son? Why are you doing this?"

"What do you mean by what to do?" Jie Xiu was irritated by his expression and raised his hand without thinking, "How can you talk to me like that! Do you think you can become more powerful now that you have joined the enemy's family? I tell you, there is no way—"

Bang!

Xie Yang put down his chopsticks, raised his hand to wave away Xie Xiu's hand, stood up and looked down at him: "It is true that if you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather. Xie Xiu, you should be glad that you live in a peaceful world." After saying that, he pushed hard on the stool that Xie Xiu was sitting on, turned around and left.

Jie Yang opened the door of the box, and just then the box opposite also opened, and Hu Biao appeared behind the door with an angry face.

"It's been almost an hour, and he didn't even call me. It's really ridiculous..."

“Xie Yang!” Xie Xiu rushed over from the door and yelled, “You bastard, you dare to talk to me like that? I’m going to beat you up today—”

Bang!

Xie Yang quickly closed the door of the private room and politely greeted Hu Biao who was looking at him in shock, "Brother Biao, what a coincidence, I was just about to look for you."

Hu Biao looked at Jie Yang, then at his hand that was tightly gripping the door handle, and listened to the vague curses coming from inside the door, and asked, "Why are you here? No, what are you doing?"

"It's a small matter." Xie Yang explained, "The person inside is my father. He wanted to sell me to an old man, but I disagreed. We were just talking about severing the father-son relationship, and he got a little excited."

The amount of information was so huge and so outrageous that Hu Biao and the IUD team members behind him were all shocked.

Hu Biao asked with difficulty: "So what you said on the phone before was true?"

Xie Yang nodded.

Hu Biao looked as if he had a stomachache. He was silent for a few seconds, then suddenly stepped forward to help Jie Yang hold the door and said, "Quick, go with Mo Bin and the others. I'll handle this. You can't start a fight with your dad here. If someone takes a picture of us, we'll be on the headlines tomorrow."

Xie Yang paused and said sincerely: "Thank you, Brother Biao." Then he let go and looked at the captain Mo Bin who was still standing in the box.

Mo Bin's face twitched, he raised his hand to pull at the mask on his face, and said, "Yangyang, put on your hat first... Um, everyone help cover for me."

The group got on the car in a weird atmosphere. A few minutes later, Hu Biao also got on the car, cursing: "What a piece of shit... Xie Yang, your father is so uncultured that he actually wanted to beat me up."

"Well, he likes to use violence. He beat me since I was a child."

There was another suffocating silence in the car.

Hu Biao coughed softly, trying to ease the atmosphere: "Yangyang, I haven't seen you for a day, you look a little different..."

"I will always be different in the future. I understand one thing from my father: people who are too timid and cowardly will always be beaten, sold, and bullied. People must learn to resist."

Hu Biao: “…”

He felt pain on his face. Just the day before yesterday, he took advantage of the fact that Jie Yang was easy to control and gave Jie Yang's opportunity to Ke Lan.

"Tsk." Tong Jian, who had the image of a healthy young man, sneered and said sarcastically, "What's wrong? You're really good at playing the victim first and then making indirect accusations. Jie Yang."

Mo Bin frowned and pulled him: "Tongtong!"

"Don't pull me, I can't serve such a drama queen." Tong Jian turned his head and looked out the window.

Ke Lan, who had been silent the whole time, said, "Brother Biao, I won't go to Director Bi's audition. You can let Jie Yang go. I can't take his chance. Otherwise, people will say that I'm bullying the newcomers."

"What's wrong?" Hu Biao's face was pulled, and he was really angry. "What are you doing? One of you is trying to disappear, and the other one doesn't want to go. You are so disobedient to my arrangement. Do you think I, your agent, am nothing? Huh?"

Everyone fell silent.

"Ke Lan, you have to go to Director Bi's audition even if you don't want to! Don't you see what's going on in the group now? Xu Chenhao, the best songwriter, has left the group, IUD's popularity has been severely damaged, and the record industry is in a downturn. Ask yourselves, at your current age, how many more years can you be a singing and dancing idol? If you don't seize every opportunity to transform, do you want to watch yourself fade into obscurity?"

Ke Lan's eyes dimmed, and he lowered his head and tightened his fingers.

Tong Jian's face was full of indignation, but he didn't say anything else.

Mo Bin came out and gave Hu Biao some advice, and he managed to hold back his anger. He looked at Xie Yang again, tried to soften his tone, and said, "Xie Yang, you..."

Jie Yang interrupted him, "Brother Biao, I wasn't planning to go to Director Bi's audition, and I wasn't unhappy because the opportunity was taken away. You just saw that I wasn't in good shape yesterday, just because my dad wanted to sell me out, and it had nothing to do with anything else." He glanced at everyone, "So what are you guys arguing about now?"

Everyone: “…”

Hu Biao looked at him inquiringly: "Xie Yang, are you really not going to audition for Director Bi? Are you not unhappy?"

Xie Yang nodded.

Tong Jian sneered: "You really said all the good and bad things about me."

Hu Biao wanted to tell him to shut up, but was interrupted by Jie Yang.

"That's really interesting." Xie Yang leaned back in his chair with his arms crossed and said slowly, "I'm curious about what bad things I said. It just so happens that I don't remember it very clearly. Brother Biao, when you came to me to ask for resources before, did I say anything against it?"

Hu Biao had never seen Xie Yang like this before, so he instinctively answered, "No, you're just a little quieter than usual."

I knew that the original owner’s cowardly character wouldn’t say anything to his face.

Xie Yang was satisfied, and glanced at everyone: "So it seems that I didn't say anything? But you, I was just in a bad mood, but you just made a lot of associations on your own. Should I say that you are guilty of stealing things, or... In your heart, you are actually hoping that I will make a fuss over resources?"

The car was silent.
