"What?" Mingjie didn't expect that Gong Bingye didn't leave him any way out.
Bai Rou was the last popular artist under his control, and her contract was also terminated. From now on, wouldn't he be a lone commander in Gongxia?
What he was most worried about was that Gong Bingye would use this incident as an excuse to terminate his contract.
Gongxia is the best agency in the country. He doesn't like any other agency except Gongxia.
So... he couldn't leave Gongxia no matter what.
"What the hell is going on?" Mingjie was furious.
So Bai Rou told Mingjie everything that had happened.
"You're such an impatient idiot!" Mingjie angrily pointed at Bai Rou's nose and cursed, "I'll find a chance to discuss your schedule with you. Why are you in such a hurry?"
"Besides, why did you have to go to that Director Ma when there are so many other people you could go to? If I were to ask you, you deserve it!"
"It's all your own fault."
However, what he didn't expect was that Xia Xingchen was actually the president of Sogou. How did she, who looked so thin, win over men?
Xia Xingchen, how much potential do you have?
From the very beginning, when he asked someone to investigate Xia Xingchen's background, they only found out that she was Li Zhenglin's unpopular stepdaughter and a student of Xinghai. They didn't find out her identity or background?
Why is it that now, her identities are more terrifying than the last?
As the saying goes, knowing yourself and your enemy will ensure victory in every battle, but he only realized now that he didn't know his enemy at all.
He felt like a clown, being teased by Xia Xingchen again and again.
Just now at the dinner table, Bai Rou had been subjected to constant humiliation and injustice, and now Mingjie was pointing fingers at her and scolding her. The insults she had endured today were beyond her imagination...
If it were in the past, who would dare to bully her like this? Now that she has lost her power, she has no choice but to bow her head.
So, she asked weakly: "Brother Jie, what should I do now?"
Mingjie sat on the stool anxiously, not even bothering to look at her. "How should I know what to do?"
"This is something you caused on your own initiative. Solve it yourself."
He can barely protect himself, so how can he have the energy to care about her?
Perhaps, he shouldn't have incited his artists to threaten Gong Bingye in the first place. Perhaps there is still another way out now.
That move was really a wrong one!
Thinking of this, Mingjie pounded the table in regret.
Not only Mingjie regretted his decision, but also Bai Rou who was standing in front of him.
Bai Rou never thought that Mingjie, who had tried hard to support her in the past, was now unwilling to help her. The reason why she was in this situation today was all because she helped him deal with Xia Xingchen.
Now... Mingjie actually turned his back on her. She was really blind back then.
Thinking of this, Bai Rou unconsciously clenched her hands into fists.

After more than two months, the drama "Rebirth" has finally finished broadcasting.
With the perfect ending of this drama, the actors of "Rebirth" also became popular.
When the drama was first aired, its popularity continued to rise, and its current explosion in popularity was something everyone expected.
On this day, Xia Xingchen was doing her makeup, wanting to shoot a film with oriental aesthetics. When the makeup was almost finished, her cell phone suddenly rang. It was the second female lead in the drama "Rebirth".
She answered the call naturally, but when she heard what the second female lead said, there was a hint of coldness in her star-like eyes.
With the popularity of the drama "Rebirth", Director Ma's value naturally skyrocketed.
In addition to the constant supply of good resources, there are also many people who curry favor with you.
That day, he was having dinner with the investors and producers of his new play. After a few bites, an uninvited guest suddenly walked in from the door.
Everyone present knew this uninvited guest, Mingjie.
Back then, he was also a popular gold medal agent, and many big directors and stars in the circle knew him.
However, after being suppressed by the prince, his reputation is not as good as before.
"Oh! Who was it? It's our manager Ming Da..." The producer saw Ming Jie and said sarcastically, "I wonder which artist Manager Ming Da is here to discuss cooperation with today?"
"Ha ha……"
Mingjie suppressed his anger and forced a smile, saying, "I came here to see Director Ma today, not to listen to a dog barking."
"Who the hell are you calling a dog?" the producer slammed the table in anger.
Seeing this, Director Ma acted as a peacemaker, "Don't argue with Agent Ming, just consider it a favor for me..."
"For Director Ma's sake, I won't bother with you for now. If you do it again, I'll make you pay for it." The producer snorted coldly before sitting down.
"Sit down." Director Ma asked Mingjie to sit down.
Mingjie decisively refused, "No, I'll leave after I get my money back."
"Your money?" the investor asked puzzled.
When did Director Ma owe Mingjie money?
Director Ma understood Mingjie's meaning and said, "Don't worry, your money will not be reduced by a single cent."
Mingjie sneered, "Of course. Not only will my share of the money not be reduced, you'll have to give me ten times as much."
"Ten times?" Director Ma was stunned. "Agent Ming, how come the investments you gave me can't be ten times as much?"
"From what I hear, Director Ma, you mean you don't want to give it to me anymore?" Mingjie's voice gradually turned cold. "Don't forget, you're where you are today because of me. Do you want everyone to know that you, Director Ma, are an ungrateful villain?"
Upon hearing this, the investors and producers became suspicious. What was going on?
What does Director Ma's sudden popularity have to do with an agent?!
This play made Miss Xia earn a lot of money. The ten times the salary proposed by Mingjie was a sky-high price for him, but for Miss Xia, it was probably the tip of the iceberg. Seeing Mingjie's tough attitude, he could only find an opportunity to have a good talk with Miss Xia about this matter.
"Agent Ming, you know that this movie was not invested by you alone. I can't promise to give you ten times the money, but... I will try my best to fight for you." Director Ma took a step back.
Although Mingjie was not satisfied with Director Ma's answer, he finally had this attitude, "This is good enough. I hope Director Ma will do what he said and not ruin his image just after becoming famous."
"No." Director Ma said humbly.
"Since Director Ma has said so, I won't disturb you from having a meal!" Mingjie saw that his goal had been achieved, and the corners of his lips raised evilly. He turned around, walked to the door and opened it. Unexpectedly, as soon as the door was opened, Xia Xingchen appeared at the door.
Mingjie was startled, "Why are you here?"
Xia Xingchen said coldly, "Why? You can come, but I can't?"
"Did you hear our conversation just now?" Mingjie asked worriedly.
Xia Xingchen already knew that she was the one scheming against her. If she heard him extorting money from her, she would definitely not let him off easily.
