My Medical Skills Give Me Experience Points Chapter 181 111: The Person, I Have Taken Away. The Bitter H

"......."

Zhou Can was speechless.

"Am I not right?" she asked.

".......!" Zhou Can didn't want to respond to such a silly question.

"Are you laying eggs or sothing?"

She was really getting more and more unrestrained with her words.

A vein popped on Zhou Can's forehead.

"I don't mind coming over to keep you company. Let's get this straight first, I can resist anything except temptation."

"Not enthusiastic at all! If you're coming, hurry up!"

Since she put it that way, Zhou Can naturally had no reservations.

Being alone with a beautiful female star, he was naturally willing.

And seeing her current state, without soone to talk so sense into her, if she did sothing foolish in her rented house, wouldn't he, as the landlord, be the unlucky one?

He quickly hailed a cab and went over.

Nearly fifty minutes later, he arrived at Su Qianqian's rental.

He still found it sowhat unbelievable.

She had actually taken the initiative to invite Zhou Can, a big guy, to drink with her at ho.

It was too abnormal.

Things like being seduced, Zhou Can, with his martial skills, wasn't worried about that.

And no matter how you looked at it, she didn't seem like that kind of woman.

He rang the doorbell.

After a mont, the entry security door opened.

Su Qianqian wore slippers, her pretty face flushed red, already showing signs of drunkenness.

On her face, there seed to be traces of dried tears.

What on earth had happened to her?

"I thought you wouldn't dare to co! Please, co in!"

Zhou Can raised the food he was carrying in his hand.

"Drinking on an empty stomach is too harmful; I bought so soy sauce duck, so marinated dishes, and peanuts."

After entering the house, Su Qianqian took the initiative to close the door.

She really wasn't being cautious with him at all.

His gaze swept over the living room, and he didn't see anyone else. There were already several empty beer cans on the coffee table.

Just like in the picture she sent to Zhou Can, there were only cans of beer, nothing else.

"Please have a seat!"

She asked Zhou Can to sit on the sofa and herself took a small stool across from him by the coffee table.

"Do you think I'm particularly despicable? Inviting a man over to drink at my place."

Her smile had a touch of desolation.

"No way, when you first rented this place from , you were very cautious around . Now we have a foundation of trust, so you dared to invite over to join you. Of course, it might also be because I'm too handso and you've taken a liking to ."

Zhou Can tried to crack a joke to lighten the mood.

The curtains in the living room were drawn, the lights dim.

That also reflected her current state of mind, she probably wanted to put herself in a closed space, undisturbed, not vulnerable to harm.

Most likely she had suffered a severe blow at work.

According to psychology, this is a manifestation of withdrawal.

Pfft~!

"Just keep flattering yourself!"

She gave Zhou Can a playfully annoyed look, but he successfully made her laugh.

"Why did you think to pour your heart out to this man? You could have gone to a girlfriend you get along well with!"

Zhou Can quietly tidied up the empty beer cans on the coffee table. Then, he spread out the snacks he'd bought for their drinking session.

"The entertainnt industry is the dirtiest place. As a helpless little woman, who would dare to get deeply involved with them? There are so things that you simply can't imagine. I still rember the first ti I worked at the film base, shooting a short TV drama. A female classmate, who got along well with , slipped into the director's room quietly after her shower that night. The next day, she landed the role of the second female lead."

She shared her work experiences.

"Back then, I had just graduated. I believed that as long as you had talent and real skills, you could definitely stand out. I held nothing but disdain for the various unwritten rules and under-the-table dealings of the entertainnt circle. Once, a producer sitting next to secretly touched my thigh; I lost it on the spot. I stood up fiercely, poured a drink over his greasy face while scolding him loudly. After that, as you might guess, I faced all sorts of suppression and even small roles were hard to co by."

Talking about her bitter experiences from the past, her expression grew even more desolate.

Zhou Can was there to be a qualified listener, just listening intently without interrupting.

"Later on, Director Xu heard about my situation, admired my integrity, and gave so encouragent. He also helped find so work regularly, allowing to survive. But after three years in the industry, I realized that if you want to make it big, you need the backing of a financier, or you have to be willing to give in to the advances of directors and producers. Otherwise, it's just too hard to achieve success."

"Director Xu has been my benefactor, but many things are beyond his control. The most he could do for was provide so ordinary jobs to keep surviving."

There are hierarchies among directors.

Big-na directors have various resources, a track record of success, and the trust of financiers, granting them significant influence.

So lesser-known directors live worse than dogs, constantly acting like lackeys, begging for investnt here and there.

And even big-na directors won't go out of their way to heavily support a newbie.

Either the newbie really has impressive talent and with a little support can beco an overnight sensation, or they are connected, a favor owed to soone, requiring so care.

"Later, I thought maybe singing would involve fewer issues. So, I chose to sign with Beihai Langxing dia Co., Ltd. to develop my career. But once I entered the industry, I found the difficulties were no less than those in acting. Yesterday, just as you saw, Vice President Qian took to accompany President Zhao for drinks. I know they have ulterior motives, but what can I do? If you don't go, it's like you're not giving them face; then the company will sideline you, and financiers won't invest in you."

She had jumped out of one fire pit and into another.

Before hearing her personal experiences, Zhou Can really didn't know the entertainnt industry was so tough.

"During my last concert, because I refused to sell my body, I couldn't pull in big investors. So, I thought of gaining popularity and promoting myself through live shows. Then disaster struck out of the blue, and the stage suddenly collapsed. Beihai Langxing dia Company is also at a loss for words. They don't want to take responsibility for this, leaving to deal with it myself. I was so angry that I asked to resign and terminate my contract. They agreed, but with one condition: I had to buy out the album I recorded, with an asking price of five million."

"They said, that money can't be lost for nothing."

This thuggish company is truly shaless.

Profits go straight into their pockets.

And when there's trouble, all the losses fall onto the signed artist.

"I sold my house and car, compensated the fans for various losses, and I still owe a lot of money. I simply can't afford the five million to buy out the album. I've never felt so desperate in my life."

Saying this, she picked up a bottle of beer, opened it, and started chugging.

A vulnerable woman, at her wits' end, trapped in a hopeless situation.

Zhou Can could faintly sense that she might be harboring thoughts of suicide.

It was the only way out.

"All right, I feel much better after talking to soone. Co take back this house in a few days; I'm planning to develop my career in another city."

She wiped the tears from her face and forced a smile.

"Your lease isn't up yet. When you move out, I'll return the remaining rent and the deposit to you."

She's already having such a hard ti.

Naturally, Zhou Can wouldn't take advantage of her.

"No need. Just consider it a gift for helping out twice!" She shook her head faintly and reached for another can of beer.

Hearing her say this, Zhou Can beca even more convinced that she was entertaining suicidal thoughts.

In fact, he had sensed it the mont he walked in.

She was particularly dejected, her eyes lacking their usual vitality.

A look of utter despair.

"You can't drink any more! Too much alcohol is harmful to your health and your liver."

He reached out to grab the can of beer, trying to dissuade her from drinking more.

"Also, didn't you say that your company is making you buy out the album before allowing you to terminate the contract? If you go to another city, don't you need to settle the termination first?"

Zhou Can asked this as a way to probe.

He wanted to re-confirm whether she was really having thoughts of taking her own life.
