"Let go, Ye Qiu, what do you want to do? Do you know this is illegal?" Ji Guang struggled violently, his eyes filled with fear.
"Do what?" Ye Qiu looked at him with a cold smile, "Wasn’t it Brother Ji who first wanted to do sothing to ?"
"I was wrong, alright? Just let go, and we can discuss everything." Ji Guang pleaded, not expecting soone so well-behaved on the surface to have such ans. With just hypnosis, everything had been revealed, and it was even recorded.
Although he knew that recordings obtained through hypnosis couldn’t be used as evidence in court, he was part of the entertainnt industry. If the video and audio were spread online, would he still have a place there?
Ji Guang had offended many people. He couldn’t imagine how those people might kick him while he’s down. He was used to living a glamorous, high-flying life. He didn’t want to live a life of hiding and being hunted down by everyone.
At this mont, besides secretly hating himself for coveting Ye Qiu’s body and looks, he especially hated Zhu Li. If it weren’t for her boasting about Ye Qiu’s capabilities in front of him, if it weren’t for her stirring things up before the general manager, would he have attracted such a disaster like Ye Qiu?
But now it’s too late for regrets. He was already in Ye Qiu’s hands.
"Discuss? When Brother Ji forced those artists, when they wanted to discuss nicely with you, why did you force them so harshly?" Ye Qiu looked at him with disdain, "After doing so many guilty things, aren’t you afraid of sleepless nights?"
"That was all orders from above. I’m just a small agent." Ji Guang smiled obsequiously, "How about this, I have so connections in the circle. If you let go, I’ll definitely plan well for you in the future, and I won’t let those dirty things touch you. How about I make you a top traffic star? Let’s just pretend that today’s incident never happened."
"Do you think that without you, I have no future?" Ye Qiu sneered, "Ji Guang, you’re underestimating and overvaluing fa and fortune. To be honest, even if I don’t expose your deeds, I’m afraid soone else might one day. By then, you being my manager, how would people see ?"
Ji Guang awkwardly laughed at his words, trying to negotiate: "Then how about this, I’ll still provide you with my resources, but tomorrow I’ll talk to President Chen about assigning another manager for you. How about that?"
"No need. I don’t need a manager."
Upon hearing the rejection, Ji Guang beca even more anxious, thinking of other ways to persuade Ye Qiu.
"I also don’t want to extort you for anything. No matter how you do it, convince President Chen not to assign another manager, and you need to apologize to every artist you’ve wronged. Compensate them if necessary, and earn their forgiveness."
Ji Guang’s face darkened, gritting his teeth, "You’re dreaming. Besides, how would they ever forgive ?"
"That’s your problem." Ye Qiu said nonchalantly, "Unless you don’t want to be in the entertainnt circle anymore."
"You..." Ji Guang was furious, "But even if I personally apologize, those people won’t forgive ."
"You should have thought of that earlier."
"Aren’t you afraid that I’ll fight back with all I’ve got? Your recording isn’t admissible in court, and the law can’t do anything to . If I manage the water army well, I’m not in the spotlight, and the internet forgets quickly. Who can touch ? Ye Qiu, don’t push your luck."
Ye Qiu sighed inwardly. It seed Ji Guang was quite formidable after all these years, quickly realizing the situation.
Indeed, he had no solid evidence now, and Ji Guang was just a behind-the-scenes agent. If he kept a low profile in the future, there was nothing that could be done. Ye Qiu originally wanted to let him face his karma early, but it was all in vain.
It seed his Soul Power Technique was not deep enough yet, unable to intimidate soone with slightly deeper thoughts.
However, he would eventually expose Ji Guang’s deeds and let him face due punishnt. For now, he needed to achieve his current goals. His future must not be entangled with soone as filthy as Ji Guang, nor could he let Li Ge misunderstand in the future.
"Alright then." Ye Qiu feigned understanding, "I won’t force you to admit your mistakes, but tomorrow you should go to President Chen and say you can no longer be my manager, and don’t assign another one either."
Ji Guang gritted his teeth, "I’m just a small agent, you’re now valued by those above. Why would President Chen listen to my advice?"
"If I were truly valued, would they assign you as my manager? Isn’t it just to quickly cash in on my current popularity? If you don’t want to do it, that’s fine, but if you don’t want to expose everything, help terminate my contract with the company." Ye Qiu took a step back.
But even this step back put Ji Guang in a difficult position. He had so power in the company, but not enough to let a money-making artist go for no reason.
Ye Qiu noticed his hesitation and chuckled, "Brother Ji, don’t tell you can’t do it. Even if I’m popular, I’m just a third-tier artist, nothing to the company. Brother Ji is a veteran and trusted by the higher-ups. If you can’t handle this, how are you worried about exposing your deeds?"
Seeing that he couldn’t intimidate Ye Qiu, Ji Guang’s expression hardened for a mont. He had indeed misjudged this ti, not expecting to be butted by a bull’s horns.
"Then I’ll just have to try it."
Hearing this, Ye Qiu smiled, seemingly unconcerned about the possibility of failure, "Then I’ll be waiting for your good news, Brother Ji."
As he untied Ji Guang, he said, "I’ve heard about a few things with Sister Li’s connections. You might not know, but Sister Li wanted to sign before, though I refused. Later, she and my forr teammate kept slandering , and now she recomnded to you."
Seeing Ji Guang’s displeased face, he continued, "Brother Ji, don’t say I’m stirring up trouble. That’s just my thinking, but isn’t that what Sister Li did? To be blunt, until today, you and I had no grudges. If it weren’t for Sister Li and Qiao Wenxi’s bad ideas, why would I deal with you now?"
Ji Guang knew that Ye Qiu was trying to make him fight with Zhu Li, aware of the sche, yet he couldn’t help but bla Zhu Li.
Ye Qiu wasn’t wrong. If not for Zhu Li’s ddling, how would he have gotten involved with Ye Qiu? Or ended up in this predicant?
If he couldn’t have it easy, Zhu Li shouldn’t have it easy either! He thought angrily.
