After venting his anger, Zhao Zhuowen glanced at Lin Chen's situation in the distance, a flicker of excitement even appearing in his eyes. This left Che Yulin, who was standing nearby, somewhat bewildered.
"Xiao Che, you and Song Zhu keep this bitch company and have some fun. I'm going out for a bit."
After Zhao Zhuowen finished speaking, he left the private room immediately.
...
On the other side.
The sound of whipping rang out.
"Yang Xiaomi, don't think you're something special just because you've acted in two movies! If it weren't for me promoting you, you'd be nothing! Have you forgotten who you used to be? You dare to act all high and mighty in front of me? You even dare to betray the company and go solo? Are you trying to get ahead of yourself?"
A middle-aged man with a large belly was brutally beating a glamorous young woman, even whipping her!
Beside him, a young man with dyed white hair and exquisitely handsome features licked the flashy ring on his hand and slowly approached the middle-aged man with a large belly.
He said, "Mr. Cao, don't be so violent towards women! Women are like flowers, they need to be cherished!"
As he spoke, he used his delicate, white fingers, more exquisite than a woman's, to stroke Yang Xiaomi on the ground. Then he took the ring he had just licked off his finger and placed it near Yang Xiaomi's lips, whispering, "Open your mouth."
Yang Xiaomi lay sprawled on the ground, her eyes filled with terror. Compared to the brutality of the middle-aged, pot-bellied CEO Cao, the "gentleness" of this white-haired youth was far more chilling!
"Yang Xiaomi, are you deaf? Young Master Wu told you to open your mouth! Open your mouth now!"
General Manager Cao roared fiercely and slapped him hard across the face again.
Yang Xiaomi was beaten black and blue, her former glamorous image on screen completely gone. Under the threat of violence, she could only submit, her mouth trembling as she opened it.
She put the ring, smeared with the white-haired boy's saliva, in her mouth. Humiliated tears streamed down her face; her heart was filled with endless grief and helplessness.
"Young Master Wu, we owe you a lot this time! Otherwise, if that bitch had run away and started her own business, we would have suffered a huge loss."
With his large pregnant belly, President Cao toasted the white-haired young man with a beaming smile.
"Oh, not at all. Mr. Cao, you and my father have been friends for so many years, I certainly have to help you with this. Besides, the biggest contributor this time is not me, but my Songzhu."
The white-haired youth, Wu Yifan, responded with a smile, but his gaze inadvertently swept towards Jin Songzhu, who had just come out of another suite.
Jin Songzhu remained expressionless, as if everything was irrelevant to her. However, when President Cao's gaze fell upon her, his eyes lit up, but he quickly looked away.
"So it was you, you filthy woman, who dared to betray me?" Suddenly, Yang Xiaomi, lying on the ground, glared at Jin Songzhu and cursed viciously.
Only then did she recognize Jin Songzhu. Wasn't this the saleswoman from the real estate agency she had visited a few days ago? At the time, she had been standing beside Dong Yuhui, silently serving tea and water.
Yang Xiaomi even jokingly called her a little mute waitress!
Jin Songzhu remained silent. Everyone thought she was just an unknown working girl, but who knew she was a hidden master!
At this moment, Jin Songzhu simply squatted quietly on the ground, next to Yang Xiaomi. Her eyes were cold and deep, as if she were looking at an insignificant object.
To say that President Cao merely slapped Yang Xiaomi a few times, and Wu Yifan only made her put the ring in her mouth, was an understatement. Jin Songzhu, however, was the most ruthless of all, because she actually tried to scratch Yang Xiaomi's face with her sharp nails!
For an actress, being disfigured is tantamount to ruining her entire life!
"No, no, I was wrong, I was wrong!"
Yang Xiaomi hurriedly covered her face with her hands and knelt down, begging for mercy. Her heart was filled with fear and despair; she knew she might not escape her fate today.
Mr. Cao, standing nearby, was also dumbfounded. He hadn't expected such a young and quiet girl to be so ruthless. She went straight for the kill? After all, Yang Xiaomi was a contracted artist with their company. If she were really disfigured, their company would suffer huge losses!
But if Wu Yifan didn't speak up, he couldn't stop him. Fortunately, Wu Yifan had his own plans, and he directly pulled Jin Songzhu away with one hand.
"Songzhu, this woman is so beautiful, how can you bear to disfigure her? Besides, I haven't even had my hands on her yet, I don't want to sleep with an ugly monster."
Wu Yifan explained his reasons, which made President Cao breathe a sigh of relief.
At this moment, Yang Xiaomi's face was covered with red marks, and although she was still wearing her clothes, many of them were torn due to the fierce struggle. Some of her fair skin was exposed to the air and within everyone's sight.
She spat out Wu Yifan's ring, which she had just been holding in her mouth, but didn't dare throw it away. After being glared at by Wu Yifan, she had no choice but to put the ring back in her mouth.
At this moment, Yang Xiaomi's face was filled with humiliation, and her heart was filled with endless grief and helplessness. She didn't understand what she had done wrong? She couldn't understand why she had encountered such a misfortune.
In fact, all of this was a conspiracy by Boss Cao.
Unable to contact Yang Xiaomi, he could only go to her agent, Su Yanan. He tried every means to get her to lure Yang Xiaomi over, saying they needed to discuss terminating the contract in person.
Furthermore, with Jin Songzhu informing him through Wu Yifan, Yang Xiaomi and Su Yanan both fell into the trap due to their combined efforts.
Fortunately, at the crucial moment, Su Yanan saw through the trap and secretly called Lin Chen for help. Although she didn't know why she thought of him at this time, she was already prepared to try anything, even if it seemed hopeless.
As for Yang Xiaomi, after being thoroughly abused by Boss Cao, she's now like meat on a chopping block. It looks like she'll soon be handed over to this white-haired perverted boy who made her put a ring in his mouth, to become his plaything…
Right now, Yang Xiaomi's mind is filled with the inspirational platitudes that the man named Dong Yuhui had given her a few days ago—
"Ms. Yang, panic stems from insufficient preparation; impatience from a lack of experience; frivolity from insufficient training; restlessness from unclear thinking; pressure from a lack of perspective; and fear from excessive speculation. In this cold and indifferent world, without personal strength, everything else is meaningless..."
So, is her current predicament due to her own lack of strength? Is it all her fault? Yang Xiaomi couldn't help but fall into deep self-blame and contemplation...
