441: Chapter 440: Bai Yunxi’s Crisis 441: Chapter 440: Bai Yunxi’s Crisis As the sky gradually darkened, the neon lights of Zhonghai City began to flicker, dazzlingly beautiful.
At the entrance of an extrely luxurious hotel, dozens of bodyguards in black stood erect.
A chilling aura approached, oozing supremacy.
Before long, a Rolls-Royce Phantom slowly arrived, and the well-trained bodyguards hurried over to surround it, as one of them respectfully opened the car door.
An imposing middle-aged man stepped out from the car, wearing an expensive black coat that highlighted his dominant aura and the unmistakable quality of a Superior; he was also in excellent physical condition, looking vibrant and energetic.
This man was Rong Yingjiu, who had a vast network in the entertainnt industry, having launched the careers of many popular stars.
In the entertainnt circle, to put it exaggeratingly, a word from him could turn a barely surviving artist into a huge sensation.
“Boss Rong,” the bodyguard who opened the car door raised his head, his deanor slightly different from the others, colder, and his intimidating presence was accentuated by a scar over his right eye.
“Where’s Bai Yunxi?”
“She’s still with her manager, but they’ll arrive soon!”
This man was nad Deng Wu, Rong Yingjiu’s top aide and had been by his side for many years.
He was quite aware of Rong Yingjiu’s true intentions behind inviting Bai Yunxi.
In fact, Deng Wu was sowhat looking forward to Bai Yunxi’s arrival.
After all, over the years with Rong Yingjiu, Deng Wu had encountered many different female stars, and Rong Yingjiu, to win people’s hearts, generally wouldn’t keep them to himself.
Over ti, Deng Wu had grown fond of the feeling of dominating those seemingly untouchable ga-stars, especially since Bai Yunxi was a popular newcor, with a top-notch figure and a heavenly face.
“By the way, what do you think of Bai Yunxi?” Rong Yingjiu asked Deng Wu as they entered the hotel.
A lascivious glint appeared in Deng Wu’s eyes, and his tone turned suggestive, “A top-notch beauty, even more stunning in person than on TV!”
“Hehehe, that’s good, we have to win her over this ti no matter what!”
“I will follow your plan in everything!”
Although picking up leftovers wasn’t ideal, Deng Wu didn’t mind much.
Besides, there was a thrill in having such haloed individuals under him, not to ntion that Bai Yunxi, the invitee this ti, was exceptionally beautiful; totally worth it.
After Rong Yingjiu and Deng Wu entered the hotel, ten minutes later, Bai Yunxi and her manager Zheng Wenxiu appeared at the hotel entrance.
Both wore large sunglasses and were dressed conservatively.
As they reached the entrance, their expressions were sowhat somber, as if they were heading into a battlefield.
“Wenxiu, has Ning Fan arrived yet?” Bai Yunxi asked nervously, looking around, trying to spot Ning Fan.
Seeing Bai Yunxi so anxious, Zheng Wenxiu also felt a bit flustered, but she still reassured her, “Don’t worry, I have already called Master Ning, and since he has agreed, he should co!”
“Why don’t you call him again?” Bai Yunxi was still sowhat uneasy.
Wenxiu thought about it and also felt that Yunxi’s suggestion was good, so she took out her phone and dialed Ning Fan’s number.
The call was connected quickly, and Wenxiu hurriedly asked him where he was at the mont.
However, the answer she received was that Ning Fan was still on the way, that it would be a while before he got there, and that they should go inside first, then he hung up.
Wenxiu and Yunxi looked at each other, but in the end, it was Rong Yingjiu’s bodyguards arranged outside who noticed them, ca up to greet them, and said they would take them to the private room Rong Yingjiu had arranged.
Even though they hesitated, they had no choice but to delve deeper into danger now.
After entering the private room, Rong Yingjiu’s eyes lit up the mont he saw Yunxi; he took off his coat and ca forward to greet her warmly, “Miss Yunxi, you’ve finally arrived, co, co, please, don’t be shy, have a seat!”
In the private room, besides Rong Yingjiu and his bodyguard Deng Wu, there were several other people—all bosses from the circle and Rong Yingjiu’s lackeys.
“This is Miss Bai, isn’t it?
You’re even prettier in person than on TV!”
“I’ve seen your dance, it’s quite good, you have great potential to beco famous.
Here is my business card, please make sure to take it; we might even have a chance to collaborate soday!”
“Up-and-coming star, your future is boundless, I rember Boss Rong is about to invest in a new film, the leading lady seems to have been found!”
“Yes, I’ve already reviewed the script; it’s definitely going to be a big hit, with online and major TV station joint promotions; it’s too easy to make a few people famous!”
“Boss Rong’s judgnt is still as sharp as ever!”
The group of bosses surrounded Yunxi and started complinting her, but soon, the conversation began to veer off track.
It seed like they were buttering up Rong Yingjiu while also hinting at sothing to Yunxi.
Yunxi’s smile was very stiff.
How could she not know that there was more to their words?
This was clearly hinting to her that if she followed Rong Yingjiu, her career in the entertainnt industry would rapidly ascend, leading to fa and even potential superstardom.
Wenxiu, already accustod to the entertainnt industry’s unwritten rules, understood even more clearly.
They were not just hinting at the benefits Yunxi would gain from following Rong Yingjiu, but also reminding them of their connections, which was sothing a rising star could hardly fathom.
Thus, Wenxiu asserted that they could not refuse Rong Yingjiu’s invitation; offending him would make Yunxi’s future difficult, as the company wouldn’t have the power to protect them if Rong truly decided to target them.
“Yunxi, this is Boss Lin, a veteran in the circle.
You really should ask him for advice on many matters, and it would be even better if you have a chance to collaborate with him in the future!”
Wenxiu’s acting was quite impressive.
Although she felt disgusted inside, at that mont, she skillfully feigned enthusiasm with those people, and it didn’t seem forced at all.
While introducing these bosses to Yunxi, Wenxiu also shielded her from another wave of advances, stopping their topic from progressing further; instead, they ended up exchanging business cards with Wenxiu.
Wenxiu conducted herself appropriately, and these people couldn’t find a single flaw in her performance, but they weren’t there genuinely for work, as they hadn’t forgotten the mission Rong Yingjiu had assigned them.
“Let’s not talk about work today, just relax!”
