Chapter 7



Yan Xixi sat on the sofa, her abdomen surrounded by the warmth of the hot water bottle. She slowly drank a cup of warm water, and the pain in her stomach was relieved a lot.

While Yan Xixi was drinking hot water, Yan Chaochao looked at Yan Xixi with some curiosity in his eyes.

In the harsh living environment of the apocalypse, with the environment deteriorating and supplies extremely scarce, even a superpower like Yan Chaochao had to fight tooth and nail to survive. Since Yan Chaochao could remember, he had never seen a human as fragile as Yan Xixi.

Looking at Yan Xixi, who was "fragile and unable to take care of herself", Yan Chaochao suddenly felt a desire to protect her.

After drinking the hot water, Yan Xixi was about to get up to wash the cup when Yan Chaochao gently pressed her shoulders: "I'll do it."

Looking at Yan Chaochao's back, even Yan Xixi herself didn't notice that the corners of her mouth had unconsciously curled up.

Yan Chaozhao quickly finished washing the cups and turned around to see Yan Xixi still sitting on the sofa, staring motionlessly towards the kitchen. She couldn't help but frown slightly: "What's wrong?"

Before Yan Xixi could answer, Yan Chaochao had already walked quickly to Yan Xixi and half-knelt down in front of her.

In Yan Xixi's stunned eyes, Yan Chaochao gently placed his hand on hers that was pressing the hot water bottle: "Is your stomach still uncomfortable?"

"Actually..." No.

Before Yan Xixi could finish her words, her body suddenly flew into the air, causing her to scream in surprise and subconsciously hug Yan Chaochao's neck.

"Hold on tight, I'll carry you upstairs." Yan Chaochao didn't wait for Yan Xixi to answer. He lifted Yan Xixi up steadily in a princess hug and walked upstairs step by step.

Yan Xixi wanted to come down, but she was worried that she was still on the stairs. She was afraid that any movement would affect Yan Chaochao, so she didn't dare to move for a moment.

But she was held in Yan Chaochao's arms, and she could even smell Yan Chaochao's fragrance.

Yan Xixi had smelled countless famous brand fragrances, but she never knew that the scent of cedar and bay leaves intertwined together could be so intoxicating.

It was just a short walk up the stairs, but by the time Yan Xixi was put down, her ears had turned completely red, and she didn't even dare to look up at Yan Chaochao.

Yan Chaochao saw Yan Xixi's red ears, but she only thought it was from the heat. She raised her hand and gently rubbed Yan Xixi's head, her tone as if coaxing a child: "It's late, have a good rest. You've worked hard today."

Under the warm yellow light in the corridor, Yan Chaochao's eyes and eyebrows were incredibly gentle.

Yan Xixi stared at Yan Chaochao blankly. Before she could even curl her lips, the conversation was interrupted by the sudden ring of the bell.

Yan Chaozhao took out his phone from his pocket, glanced at the name, and couldn't help frowning. He hurriedly said, "I'm going to answer the phone, you go back to your room."

After saying that, Yan Chaochao walked up the stairs and returned to the living room.

Yan Xixi looked at Yan Chaochao's back, and thought of the name she had just glimpsed on Yan Chaochao's mobile phone screen, and narrowed her eyes slightly.

***

It was not until Yan Chaochao walked downstairs to the living room and was alone that she answered the phone.

"Hello."

Yan Chaochao had just said one word when the person on the other end of the phone responded with a torrent of responses.

"Yan Chaochao, are you getting carried away? Huh? You don't answer the phone, you don't reply to text messages, and you really think you're a rich lady? You don't have the life of a rich lady, and you even have a rich lady's disease! Have you forgotten the contract you signed with the company and how much your liquidated damages are? Do I need to remind you? Huh?!"

"Do you think you could have gotten to where you are today if the company hadn't chosen you to debut, if the company hadn't helped you, if the company hadn't managed and packaged you, would you still be able to do so? Everything you have now is given to you by the company, and by me. You'd better face this reality!"

"I'm warning you, as long as your contract with the company isn't terminated, as long as you're still my agent, you'd better obey me."

At this point, the other party paused slightly: "Do you understand?"

When the opponent was attacking just now, Yan Chaochao's attention was not on the opponent at all. He just looked at his arms under the light, and frowned slightly when he saw his arms without any muscle lines.

It wasn't until he heard this question that Yan Chaochao came back to his senses: "What?"

The person on the other end's side instantly became even more furious at Yan Chaozhao's words, even raising their voices considerably: "Next Sunday, as long as you're not dead, get the hell out of here at the recording of 'Growing Up Together'! Otherwise, you know the consequences!"

After saying that, the person on the other end hung up the phone.

Penalty for breach of contract?

as a result of?

"Growing Up Together"?

A lot of new words suddenly flooded into Yan Chaochao's mind, making her tilt her head with a confused look.

Feeling sleepy, Yan Chaochao lowered his head and couldn't help yawning, with sleepy tears in his eyes.

Forget it, I don’t want to think about it anymore. Let’s talk about it tomorrow!

Thinking of this, Yan Chaozhao shook his head, turned around and went back to his room. He fell back on the bed, slightly turned his body, and fell into a peaceful sleep.

When Yan Chaochao fell into a deep sleep, Yan Xixi quietly walked out from behind the stair pillar, almost crushing the phone in her hand.

From the moment Yan Chaochao turned around, when Yan Xixi saw the words "Sun Ding" on her mobile phone screen, she felt something was wrong.

That day in the ward, in front of her, Sun Ding was able to curse Yan Chaochao. Yan Xixi could hardly imagine how harshly Sun Ding could have cursed Yan Chaochao in private before he was found and returned to the Yan family.

Even agent Sun Ding has such an attitude towards Yan Chaochao, so one can imagine how Yan Chaochao is treated in the agency.

During the days since Yan Chaochao was taken home, perhaps because she appeared too calm and Yan Xixi was busy with the company's affairs, she actually ignored the unstable factor of her agency.

I don’t know how many times Yan Chaochao’s agency has called her these days and how much pressure they have put on her.

But she was so immersed in her work that she didn't notice these details at all.

Thinking of this, Yan Xixi suddenly felt a strong sense of guilt in her heart.

After returning to the room, Yan Xixi, after repeated struggles, still couldn't suppress her inner worries. She tiptoed out of the door, hid behind the pillar next to the stairs on the second floor, and quietly heard the phone call between Yan Chaochao and Sun Ding.

Although Yan Xixi had previously guessed that Yan Chaochao's agency was not treating her well, she was shocked when she heard Yan Chaochao's agent insulting and threatening her. Yan Chaochao even walked upstairs with her head down, hiding her crying face, and walked into the house silently, and never came out again.

Yan Xixi couldn't help but clench her fists, grit her teeth, and a fierce look flashed in her eyes.

Damn it!

How dare you make your sister cry? That's unforgivable!

Yan Chaochao's company was called Xingyi Entertainment. Yan Xixi quickly searched online and found relevant information. She quickly browsed through the information and quickly understood the basic situation of this agency.

But these superficial information are not what she really wants.

Yan Xixi took out her phone and made a call: "Hello? Please help me check Xingyi Entertainment's financial situation, especially the taxes and large expenses of unknown origin... The expenses are easy to deal with..."

After hanging up the phone, Yan Xixi leaned back slightly, crossed her fingers in front of her chest, and narrowed her eyes slightly.

The weather is getting colder...

It’s time for Xingyi Entertainment to go bankrupt.
