Retired Villainess Transmigrates into a Cannon Fodder

Golden Agent of the Adonis (75)

Chu Xiang thanked them, said that she would bring them gifts if she were to go to work in other places in the future, and then waited with peace of mind. As for investigating the matter, how could it be as effective as them finding it out themselves? If the company investigated Li Ou, it would be regarded as rectifying their employees, and it would not affect the company’s growing impression of her at all.

Fang Zhenxuan sat next to her and watched TV from the beginning to the end. Having seen her ‘intermission’, he handed her a plate of fruit and said with a smile, “You’re awesome, Chu Xiang. If you debut in a film, you will definitely bag a trophy as an actress.”

Chu Xiang accepted the compliment nonchalantly. She took a bite of fruit and asked him, “Why don’t you call me Sister anymore? Even adults don’t call me that anymore. You’re growing cheekier, and now you’re calling me by my name directly.”

Fang Zhenxuan had his own thoughts and took a sip of water awkwardly. “It’s troublesome to be so wordy. We used to use honorifics because we were unfamiliar with each other before. Now we’re all on the same side, using our names makes us closer. Besides, you are so young and pretty. Calling you Elder Sister makes you sound old.”

“That’s crap. You’re talking nonsense,” Chu Xiang laughed and didn’t care much about it. She changed the topic and asked about his progress in acting.

Fang Zhenxuan breathed a sigh of relief inwardly and chatted with her. In terms of homework, he has never failed before, and he has never been afraid of random exams. He could answer everything fluently, so he was not afraid.

Chen Lifeng didn’t hear back from Chu Xiang, but only saw her teaser post that denoted exposing him. He gradually got anxious. It was as if he could visualize her collecting the screenshots of their chats page by page and editing words unfavorable to him.

For a second, he felt as if he was served a rude awakening. He also finally realized that Chu Xiang had changed. —— Chu Xiang really didn’t value her feelings for him anymore, and there was no doubt that she could ruin any sort of civility between them. This overturned his understanding of Chu Xiang. He somewhat couldn’t accept it and found it unbelievable, but this was the fact. He now must look at Chu Xiang in a whole new light.

Li Ou had already rushed to his residence, so he didn’t dare to hide any more. He honestly told him that he owed Chu Xiang her salary, and that his previous refusal to clarify things had angered her. As a result, she published a Weibo post to confront him.

Li Ou was stunned for a while after knowing the truth. He found it hard to believe that there was such a stupid agent as Chu Xiang. As an agent himself, he too has thought of a lot of tricks to make money from artists, but Chen Lifeng actually lost a fortune on Chen Lifeng. This was f*cking true love, all right! Zhou Yuan was nowhere near as bad as her!

Li Ou also became wary of Chen Lifeng. He couldn’t trust such an artist who could plot against his agent. It seemed that he had to be wary of Chen Lifeng harming him henceforth.

Li Ou and Chen Lifeng couldn’t get in touch with Chu Xiang, so they approached the company. Li Ou also expressed his displeasure to the company, to the effect that everything could be discussed as everyone was in the same company; Chu Xiang was too aggressive in trying to kick up a fuss.

Mr. Liang has plenty of things to deal with every day. Seeing that this incident was another conflict between Chu Xiang and Chen Lifeng, he subconsciously felt annoyed. He ordered the relevant departments to deal with it as soon as possible. All that could be resolved internally should be resolved internally, lest they would lose their prestige outside.

With Manager Liang’s order, the people below speeded up and soon found out that the person behind the crusade against Chu Xiang turned out to be Li Ou!

The Chief Director of the PR Department laughed when he got the news. What kind of rotten people were Chen Lifeng and Li Ou? They engineered Chu Xiang’s scandal behind the scenes, yet were unwilling when Chen Lifeng proposed a solution to settle the matter. Knowing that she was bent on laying things in the open, they had the nerve to complain against her and blame her for being ignorant.

She has seen a lot of competition between artists and agents, and it was really rare to see such disgusting ones as Chen Lifeng and Li Ou. She suddenly thought, ‘In the past eight years, no one has noticed how reprehensible Chen Lifeng is. Don’t tell me it was all covered up by Chu Xiang?’ Judging from Chu Xiang’s strength during this period, she was fully capable of achieving this.

With this conclusion, she despised Chen Lifeng even more. However, she was in the PR Department, so it was not suitable for her to share her personal feelings. She only spilled the beans to a few people she has a good relationship with, who then reported the truth to Manager Liang.

Of course, because her relationship with Chu Xiang was getting better in private, she sent Chu Xiang a WeChat message to inform her the moment she learned the truth.
