Chapter 4: After the Book



As soon as he finished speaking, the surroundings became quiet, even the breathing became much lighter.

After hearing what Li Yining said, Xiang Li choked up and was the first to come back to her senses. Her face was slightly stiff, and she forced a smile and nodded in response: "Yes, we are all here to pick you up."

She paused, pointed at the luxury car behind her, and managed to utter, "Ningning, is this your car?"

Li Yining pretended to be surprised and said "Ah", then turned around to look at the white luxury car: "Car? It's not mine."

Hearing this, Xiang Li breathed a sigh of relief.

She knew that Li Yining didn't have such a luxury car. The clothes she usually wore didn't cost more than four figures.

Thinking about this, her eyes fell on the exquisite watch on her wrist, which was made by PATEK PHILIPPE. If she remembered correctly, it was a very classic style.

The price is about 1.5 million. The bracelet is inlaid with 78 pearls, the rose gold decorative links are inlaid with 48 princess-cut diamonds, and the clasp is made up of 55 diamonds. The bezel and lugs are also all inlaid with diamonds to form a circular pattern.

It looks luxurious and elegant, a style pursued by thousands of girls, and also one that Xiang Li very much desires to possess.

If she remembered correctly, once when she and Li Yining passed by PATEK PHILIPPE, she stared at the poster for a long time and said that she hoped that within five years of working in the entertainment industry, she would be able to afford this watch.

At that time——

Xiang Li recalled that Li Yining smiled and said that he would give it to her when she became rich.

The result is now——

She wore it on her hand, and it appeared clearly in front of her.

Xiang Li swallowed her saliva and looked at the watch with burning eyes: "Ningning, your watch..." She asked cautiously: "Is it rented?"

Li Yining was stunned, followed Xiang Li's gaze, and smiled slightly: "Are you talking about this watch?"

"Hmm." Xiang Li said, "This watch seems to be a little different from the ones we saw before."

Li Yining smiled slightly, and under her expectant gaze, gave her the answer she longed for.

"yes."

Xiang Li's eyes lit up, as if she had received affirmation.

She knew that the watch must have been rented by Li Yining.

Li Yining took in the emotions on her face, paused, and asked Jian Yuanyuan: "Was this watch given to me by someone else or did I buy it?"

The smile on Xiang Li's face froze, and the words she was about to say were stuck in her throat, unable to come out.

Jian Yuanyuan suppressed her laughter and agreed with her: "I can't remember. You have so many watches, who would remember this ordinary one?"

Just so-so?!

Several women who were not very rich took a deep breath.

Li Yining nodded and smiled brightly: "Is that so?" She looked at Xiang Li, "Sorry, I don't remember either."

Everyone: “…”

Xiang Li's face turned pale and her lips trembled. She wanted to ask something else, but Li Yining had already ignored her.

"Yuanyuan, let's go in."

"Um."

Looking at the backs of the two people wearing "RMB", Xiang Li was in a daze for a long time.

Instead, a young artist next to him muttered, "Is Li Yining crazy?"

"Oh my god, I was just blinded by the RMB. Is Li Yining so rich?"

Everyone turned their heads and looked at Xiang Li.

Xiang Li's face turned pale, and she was unsure: "I don't know."

Li Yining was clearly with her on weekdays, but he didn't show it.

One of them sneered: "Didn't you say she was the same as us?"

Xiang Li: “…”

That’s what she thinks!!

Suddenly, someone asked, "Could it be that...she borrowed it at a high price just to show off her wealth?"

“It could be a fake.”

“Yes, yes, yes.”

When a person does not wish well for another person, even if the most real thing is placed in front of them, they will always have an excuse not to believe the facts.

——

It was not until she entered the company that Jian Yuanyuan couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Did you see the expressions on their faces? It was hilarious!"

Li Yining smiled and blinked: "What do you think?"

Jian Yuanyuan made two "tsk tsk" sounds, hooked her shoulder and said, "Sister, you can do it today, you should let these people who look down on others see the world."

Li Yining thought about the description of these people in the book and raised his eyebrows: "I guess... they should be thinking that Li Yining might be trying to save his last bit of dignity by pretending to be rich."

Jian Yuanyuan: “…”

What's going on is that there is some truth in what you said.

The two of them entered the hall, and when the people in the hall saw Li Yining appear, their eyes were filled with surprise.

After seeing her dressing, everyone sighed unanimously that Li Yining is really a stunning beauty, whether it is her figure, temperament, or that meticulously carved face. As long as she doesn't cause trouble, she will definitely have a place in the entertainment industry.

Even if she is just a vase, she should have tens of millions of fans.

This face is so stunning.

Li Yining ignored those looks and got into the elevator with Xiang Li and went straight to Zhao Yan's office.

There were many staff members walking back and forth in the corridor. Just as Li Yining was about to knock on the door, it was opened from the inside.

Li Yining raised her eyes and met a pair of smiling eyes, but the owner of the eyes suddenly became depressed after seeing her face.

The smile in his eyes disappeared completely, replaced by a hint of disgust.

Li Yining paused, suddenly feeling a little sorry for the original owner.

Jiang Yuan’s dislike was so obvious, how come she didn’t notice it?

Jiang Yuan frowned and looked at Li Yining, a flash of disgust passed through his face, and then he returned to his expressionless state.

Tong Ran, on the other hand, raised her eyebrows when she saw the person at the door and exclaimed, "Ning Ning, why are you here?"

Li Yining smiled slightly, looked at his agent Zhao Yan who was standing behind the two of them and glared at him, and chuckled: "I came here to terminate the contract."

Everyone: "...???"

Why do you sound so happy?

Tong Ran was stunned, as if she had not expected her to be so frank. She was embarrassed for two seconds and coughed, "Sorry."

Li Yining smiled: "What are you sorry for? It's not your fault."

Tong Ran said nothing.

Jiang Yuan, on the other hand, asked coldly after hearing the conversation: "Were you terminated?"

Li Yining looked at the handsome, slightly childish man in front of him and smiled: "I don't know."

To be honest, she now saw Jiang Yuan up close. Although she also used her mobile phone to search for photos on Baidu after she came here... there is still a gap between the photos and reality. In terms of all aspects, Jiang Yuan is really no match for Huo Shen.

Whether it is appearance or strength.

The only thing that can compare to it, perhaps, is some unspeakable ability.

She threw her hands up helplessly. Who told the author to make Huo Shen incompetent? It was so tragic.

Huo Shen, who had just entered the company at this moment, sneezed suddenly.

The agent was stunned and looked at him in surprise: "You have a cold?"

Huo Shen glanced at him coldly and touched his nose: "No."

The agent breathed a sigh of relief and looked at him: "By the way, the matter you asked me to investigate has a result." He handed the information to Huo Shen and couldn't help asking: "Why did you investigate Li Yining and Jiang Yuan?"

The agent knew about Huo Shen's marriage, but he had no idea who he was going to marry. He had asked Huo Shen before, but after Huo Shen gave him a look, the agent stopped gossiping.

He was really a little curious about why he suddenly came back from the mountains and started investigating Li Yining and Jiang Yuan.

Huo Shen said nothing and simply opened the document the agent gave him.

When he saw that Li Yining had spent a fortune to vote for Jiang Yuan to debut before he entered the entertainment industry, he sneered. Then, when he saw that Li Yining used the name of fans to buy billboards to confess his love for Jiang Yuan... Huo Shen felt that his hair seemed to be gradually turning green.

…………

After a quick look, Huo Shen's head had turned into a green grassland.

The agent looked at him with a somewhat uneasy look on his face: "What kind of angry news did you see?"

He didn't think anything was wrong.

Huo Shen had a cold face and said nothing. Just when he was about to speak, his cell phone vibrated. He lowered his eyes and raised his eyebrows after seeing the caller ID.

"Hello?"

As soon as the call was connected, Li Yining's playful and soft voice came to my ears: "Husband, I was bullied."

Huo Shen: “…”

He was scolded and asked subconsciously: "Who bullied me?"

"company."

——

Half an hour ago, Li Yining followed Zhao Yan into the office to discuss the termination of the contract.

She originally thought that a smooth termination of the contract would be good for everyone, but she didn't expect that the company not only did not give her early termination money, but even asked Li Yining to pay for it herself, saying that she had breached the contract.

Is this tolerable?

Of course not!

Li Yining is not a sucker. Even if she is rich, she cannot spend this kind of money.

Moreover, Li Yining took a look at the contract of this company and found that it was full of loopholes and unreasonable clauses. It was simply too deceptive.

——Something about having to obey the company's arrangements, and if you violate the rules, the company will handle it at its discretion; something about not being allowed to deliberately create scandals, and if you do, you will have to bear the consequences yourself; and... you cannot take on roles or endorsements privately, and if you breach the contract, you will have to pay ten times the penalty.

…………

The more Li Yining looked at it, the more he wanted to vomit blood.

What kind of blood-sucking company is this? People keep rushing to sign contracts with it?

She herself didn't know much, but Li Yining was well aware of the need for external help.

Naturally, she called her cheap husband. She thought it would be more appropriate to ask Huo Shen about this matter.

————

Huo Shen listened to her coquettish voice, his eyelids twitched, and he tried to cooperate with her: "What do you mean?"

Li Yining briefly explained the matter and said at the end: "I know that my family is rich. Let alone tens of millions, even if it is hundreds of millions of dollars in breach of contract, we can easily pay it. But this is unreasonable. I looked at the contract and I didn't breach it at all. Why should we pay? My husband worked hard to earn money. He can't spend it like this, right?"

Huo Shen: “…………”

If you still can't understand anything at this point, Huo Shen is no longer Huo Shen.

He pretended not to notice the agent's eyes that were about to pop out of his head, and tried to cooperate with Li Yining, and his tone became a little softer: "Well. Is there anything I can do?"

Li Yining raised his eyes, blinked at Zhao Yan's increasingly ugly face, and kindly suggested: "How about... we acquire this company?"

Zhao Yan took a breath and just watched her pretend!

Huo Shen paused for a moment, without hesitation: "Okay, but the acquisition takes time. I'll let a lawyer handle it on your side now?"

Li Yining seemed to have not expected that he would agree so readily. He was stunned for a moment and said, "...Okay."

Huo Shen said "hmm": "Are there any other problems that need my attention now?"

Li Yining looked at Zhao Yan's expression and thought for a moment: "It seems that there is nothing left."

Just as Huo Shen was about to speak, the agent sitting opposite him and browsing his phone suddenly exclaimed: "Li Yining is on the hot search again."

Li Yining blinked, and of course she heard it, so she asked, "Is it good or bad?"

Huo Shen paused and took the agent's phone directly.

Agent: “???”

"What are you doing with my phone?"

Huo Shen did not answer. He was talking on the phone with Li Yining with one hand and scrolling through his phone on Weibo with the other. After seeing the comments on it, Huo Shen frowned slightly.

He asked coldly, "Did you enter the entertainment industry just to be scolded?"

Li Yining: “…”

Brother, you can't say that. I entered the entertainment industry just to cheat on you.

The author has something to say: Huo Shen: I’m angry! ! ! !

Ning Ning: I am telling the truth (innocent face.

Zhao Yan: Fuck! Please stop pretending!!!
