In the afternoon, Yang Min followed Wu Youyou closely to Tiandi Culture Company.
Zhai Ming was like an ant on a hot pan, standing anxiously at the door waiting. When he finally saw Wu Youyou, he clung to her like a lifeline.
"Mr. Wu, you've finally arrived! Something terrible has happened!"
Seeing his expression, as if facing a formidable enemy, Wu Youyou's face was ashen, and she said seriously,
"Into the conference room!"
The group rushed to the conference room, where Wu Youyou finally got Zhai Ming to explain the whole story in detail.
Zhai Ming slumped into a chair and couldn't wait to speak.
"Wu Qifeng's agency suddenly called this morning, saying that Wu Qifeng can no longer play the male lead in our 'The Glamorous Imperial Concubine,' and that I should find someone else. They even had the audacity to say that they recommended someone to us, Zeng Xingchen. Can you believe it? The publicity here has been launched everywhere, the auditions have all gone smoothly, and filming has already started. We can't stop now. This last-minute change of actor is like walking on thin ice!"
Wu Youyou has never had any good feelings towards her second brother's agency.
In their previous life, they were the ones who pushed their second brother into the eye of the storm. When things went wrong, instead of stepping forward to clarify the rumors, they impatiently announced the termination of the contract, severing all ties with their second brother.
Now, they're seeing a newcomer become the lead right out of the gate, which has caused dissatisfaction among the other actors, and there might even be some shady dealings she's unaware of.
Wu Youyou continued to press for answers.
"Have you managed to contact your second brother?"
"I can't get through on the phone at all!"
Zhai Ming's voice clearly revealed his anxiety.
It seems that some things simply cannot wait; I ultimately gave the other party too much face!
Wu Youyou frowned, her mind made up, her eyes filled with unwavering determination.
"In that case, Director Zhai, send them a lawyer's letter immediately, accusing them of breach of contract! Also, attach a document, the contract between Wu Qifeng and the other company regarding the termination of the contract. My second brother is not one to swallow his anger; he will definitely call you back."
Zhai Ming added,
"But if Wu Qifeng wants to terminate the contract, he'll definitely have to pay the other party a lot of money!"
"That's not the point. The key is to be quick. This guy really disgusts me!"
Zhai Ming immediately took care of it.
Wu Youyou called her second brother, but no one answered. So she sent him a text message to let him know her decision.
Wu Youyou and He Yangmin left the company and stood by the roadside, ready to hail a taxi home.
Suddenly, a minivan sped up like a wild horse and stopped beside them.
Before the two could react, two men wearing sunglasses jumped out of the car.
Without saying a word, they put Wu Youyou in a black bag and threw her into the car like a sack of potatoes.
Yang Min was terrified and pulled and tugged at the ground while shouting for help.
However, one of the men wearing sunglasses showed no mercy and knocked her unconscious.
The van door slammed shut, and the vehicle sped away like an arrow.
Wu Youyou didn't know who had tied her up. In the car, she felt the car speeding along the road, and everything in front of her was pitch black, as if she had fallen into an endless abyss of darkness.
She kept telling herself to stay calm and stay composed.
Although her head was covered by a bag and she couldn't see the faces of the people outside, she still mustered her courage and cautiously asked,
"Why are you tying me up? I seem to have no grudge against you."
The man in sunglasses sitting in the passenger seat seemed somewhat surprised by Wu Youyou's behavior.
It's quite interesting that this woman didn't cry or make a scene, but instead asked the question so calmly!
He answered nonchalantly.
"Someone offered a high price to kidnap you and sell you. As for the money, consider it money for the brothers' drinks!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the men in the car burst into laughter. Their laughter was like sharp blades piercing Wu Youyou's heart, making her feel incredibly humiliated.
She continued to keep her voice low and asked softly,
"Is the person who hired you surnamed Wei?"
"Oh, girl, you've offended quite a few people! Now another one surnamed Wei has appeared. It seems you really are a femme fatale!"
The man's voice was full of sarcasm.
Wu Youyou frowned, pondering to herself, "Could it not be the Wei family?"
Who could it be?
I didn't stay in Kyoto for long, and I only offended the Wei siblings; I didn't offend anyone else!
Soon, the car stopped, and Wu Youyou was roughly pulled out of the car and pushed forward, stumbling along.
It was pitch black before her eyes, and she couldn't see the road at all. After being pushed and shoved around several corners, she finally arrived at a place.
The man who pushed her tore off the bag on her body. Wu Youyou squinted, then slowly opened her eyes and found that she was in a relatively spacious room.
Two groups of people stood in front of her.
The man in sunglasses on her side was the one who arrested her; and the people on the other side, judging from their clothes, were a group of desperados.
One of the men, with dyed yellow hair and a cigarette dangling from his mouth, looked Wu Youyou up and down several times as if she were a piece of merchandise, and finally held up five fingers.
The man in sunglasses nodded and pushed Wu Youyou over.
Wu Youyou understood that the five fingers represented the transaction amount.
It seems they do this kind of deal frequently.
I've actually been sold!
Although Wu Youyou was filled with panic, she remained quite calm, neither making a fuss nor struggling.
