211: Chapter 214: There Must Be Demons When Things Are Abnormal 211: Chapter 214: There Must Be Demons When Things Are Abnormal Chapter 214: When Weird Things Happen, There Must Be a Demon
After last night’s fumbling, Hua Buqi and ng Youjing woke up unusually late today.
It was around ten o’clock when ng Youjing’s phone finally rang.
Looking at the unfamiliar number displayed, ng Youjing, still groggy, casually combed her hair and asked softly, “Hello, who is this?”
“What is going on with you guys?
You’ve been in Macau for several days now, and our partners are getting anxious.
Why haven’t you discussed the contract yet?”
A middle-aged man’s voice ca from the other end of the phone.
From the tone, one could tell that the middle-aged man was quite displeased, even a bit angry.
“Boss, it’s not what you think.
We’ve run into major trouble here with the partners in Macau….”
“I don’t care.
If you ss up this cooperation, you can stop being an agent altogether.
I will hire a more qualified agent for Hua Buqi by offering a large sum.
I’m giving you three days; if you haven’t settled the contract by then, don’t bother coming back.”
After finishing speaking, the person on the other end hung up without giving any chance to argue.
ng Youjing just wanted to finish her sentence but was cut off, and upon hearing the beeping sound on the phone, she reluctantly set the phone aside with a sense of discontent.
As an agent at Zhongxing Entertainnt, who could understand the secrets and grievances hidden in her heart?
The reason ng Youjing insisted on keeping Hua Buqi was not only to satisfy her own vanity but more for her personal interests.
After all, she had struggled to reach this position, and losing it suddenly would be painful for anyone.
The entertainnt circle is not like ordinary large or small businesses outside; how dark and murky it really is, probably only she knows.
Even the background of the boss at Zhongxing Entertainnt might be darker than what one can imagine.
Nowadays, most of the so-called entertainnt industry is just a way for forr big bosses to launder money, being able to both promote newcors to fa and simultaneously reap profits.
Why wouldn’t they do it?
“ng sister, why did you get up so early today?”
At that mont, the young girl by her side finally woke up.
Feeling the absence of her companion, she couldn’t sleep and touched the empty bedsheet next to her; the young girl was shocked for a mont, fearing her beloved ng sister had suddenly disappeared.
“No, nothing.
Huahua, you’re awake?”
ng Youjing was lost in a myriad of thoughts, seemingly contemplating sothing as she sat quietly on the bed, her arms resting on her legs and her eyes full of lancholy staring out the window, as if harboring endless secrets.
“I’ve been awake for a while.” The young girl rubbed her sleepy eyes, saw ng Youjing’s gloomy expression, and imdiately felt a pang of heartache.
Over the years, the young girl had grown up without a mother, and her only father was a workaholic who had been busy working and had sent her abroad for schooling since she was little.
Finding what she loved to do wasn’t easy, yet she was alone.
She t ng Youjing during an audition, and the two won beca as close as sisters, always together.
Through ng Youjing’s efforts, and Huahua’s talent, they both achieved their current success,
But now, new difficulties presented themselves.
She knew how hard ng Youjing had worked to train her, but if it ant doing disgraceful scenes with male actors,
the young girl would absolutely refuse, even if it ant she wouldn’t beco famous or her career as an artist ended.
She would never trade her dignity for so-called fa and fortune.
The young girl had always viewed things broadly, so she didn’t cling much to the concept of money, but ng Youjing was different.
She was an imnsely career-driven woman, especially in the entertainnt industry—practically a workaholic.
Over the years, the young girl’s fa could largely be attributed to her efforts.
“ng sister, what’s wrong?” Seeing so dampness at the corners of ng Youjing’s eyes, the young girl, not being foolish, imdiately sensed the turmoil in her heart and beca sowhat anxious.
“Oh!
It’s nothing.
I just rembered so things I shouldn’t have.”
ng Youjing forced a smile, but in reality, she desperately wanted to confide her inner turmoil to soone.
However, being virtually alone in Zhonghai City, she had to rely solely on herself for everything.
The mory of the Sea Star dia Company boss trying to exploit her sexually a few days ago naturally made her feel awful.
The entertainnt industry is very cruel, and sexual exploitation is hardly an uncommon issue.
“Sister ng, you are deceiving again.
We’ve been together for so long, how could I not know your every move?
Sister ng, just speak out.
Huahua will certainly help you solve your troubles.
Even if Huahua can’t solve them, don’t we still have that beastly uncle?”
When she said these words, Hua Buqi almost subconsciously blurted them out.
Upon hearing Huahua suddenly ntion Lin Zifeng, her neck tightened instantly, and a flicker of emotion passed through her eyes.
“Him?”
ng Youjing found it incredible.
At such a critical mont, the young girl actually thought of him first.
She knew all too well how terrible he was.
Asking for his help would be like a Death God drinking poison, a recipe for disaster.
“What’s wrong?
Sister ng, isn’t the beast here?
Why not seek his help?”
The young girl blinked her eyes, looking at her with a sowhat puzzled expression; her big, watery eyes pure and innocent, making even ng Youjing, gazing into those naive eyes, feel deceived.
After the two won talked in the room for an hour, Lin Zifeng finally got up.
Standing in front of the window, he deeply inhaled a cigarette and organized his emotions, his icy face struggling to muster a slight, relaxed smile.
It wasn’t until noon that the three of them went to the production company together.
As soon as he climbed the stairs, Lin Zifeng noticed that this so-called production company was vastly different from a standard company.
Essentially, the employees up and down the company were of a lazy disposition, with no corporate atmosphere whatsoever.
Most exaggeratedly, the office openly allowed gambling!
Although Macau is one of the four major Gambling Cities in the world, it shouldn’t be to this extent.
Seeing the cigarette butts and thick smoke all over the ground, Lin Zifeng’s brow unconsciously furrowed.
Especially the female staff of this company, who were dressed like the ladies from local hair salons, garishly dressed and sexually appealing, typical of a low-tier production company.
It was unclear how the owner managed the company.
Could this be what they call an ethical company?
Were they supported by his old martial arts world friends and brothers?!
Walking to the reception with the two won, they imdiately attracted the attention of nurous lecherous n.
So even boldly whistled and openly harassed them, no wonder they insisted on waiting for him to co.
It seed abnormal, there must be demons at work.
“Excuse , is your boss Mr.
Zhang in?”
ng Youjing asked in a very polite tone.
The receptionist was holding a makeup mirror, casually applying makeup on her face, which was heavily plastered like a white wall.
Her slightly curled blonde hair resembled an African wild lion Lin Zifeng had once seen.
The uglier it was, the uglier it got.
