Chapter 95
Chapter 95
Xu Meng truly didn't want to choose Sun Mo so quickly. Originally, as long as Yang Hong didn't let go, she could continue to maneuver between them. But now that Yang Hong was acting so magnanimous, if things escalated to Sun Mo, she would really be in a difficult position.
So she could only retreat to advance, avoiding the topic.
"Yang Hong, don't say that. If you do, I..." Xu Meng's tears fell on command, putting on an anguished and struggling appearance.
Yang Hong: "Xu Meng, don't be sad. In the future, whenever you need me, I'll appear by your side at any time."
"Don't talk nonsense."
"I'm telling the truth. Even if you're with Mo, I'll always be by your side." Yang Hong's words were highly suggestive.
It made Xu Meng think she had Yang Hong completely wrapped around her finger, turning him into a devoted lover with no complaints or regrets.
Xu Meng didn't know she was apparently this capable.
[Why does this sound so strange? Could it be that after Xu Meng and Sun Mo get back together, Yang Hong still plans to be Xu Meng's backup... Ugh!]
In the private room, Qin Zhao watched Pei Mingxuan and Sun Mo return one after another, falling into a cold war. Meanwhile, he continued eavesdropping on the gossip from the other side.
Just as things were getting interesting, he heard Ji Fei seemingly spitting repeatedly in her mind as if she had seen something dirty.
[Yang the Crazy, you're impressive! You actually plan to help them get together, then become Xu Meng's secret lover. As long as you keep bringing benefits to Xu Meng, you know she won't let go of you. Do you really want to get infinitely close to your idol like this?]
Qin Zhao silently retched, as if witnessing the crazy behavior of some obsessed fans.
Then he looked rather sympathetically at Sun Mo, who was lowering his head to fiddle with his phone. Although he was stupid and unfaithful, he didn't deserve this, did he?
Not long after, the remaining three people finally returned one after another, and the awkward dinner came to an end.
After watching Sun Mo and Xu Meng gaze at each other lovingly at the entrance before getting into their respective cars and leaving, a car came to pick up Qin Zhao and Ji Fei.
Upon opening the door, they found Qin Xian inside, who had come specifically to pick them up.
After Ji Fei got in the car, she heard Qin Xian ask, "Did anything happen again today?"
The topic was raised in a way that greatly stirred Ji Fei's desire to share. Her eyes immediately lit up with stars as she rattled off a string of words to Qin Xian.
Qin Xian's smile was faint, but he listened attentively, nodding and frowning in response from time to time.
Ji Fei's only dissatisfaction was that she couldn't share the even more explosive information she had obtained through her Gossip System.
Gao Hao's mouth twitched as he said from the side, "Being away for so long wasn't because of a stomachache, but hiding to eavesdrop on gossip."
And the gossip was so explosive, it was truly juicy gossip within gossip. Even he, as a seasoned entertainment industry manager, couldn't help but marvel.
Ji Fei grinned.
Gao Hao sighed, "Then I really can try to poach Pei Mingxuan."
"Huh? Gao, you like Sister Pei? You want to pursue her?" Ji Fei asked in shock.
Gao Hao choked on his saliva, "What nonsense are you talking about? I meant trying to poach her, to have her come to our studio as a manager and manage you in the future."
Only then did Ji Fei realize they had considered Pei Mingxuan.
Ji Fei thought for a moment, then suddenly smiled.
[Sister Pei was able to take such good care of Sun Mo before, completely eliminating the need for him to do anything extra, just like a nanny. So if she becomes my manager, won't I be able to be a proper useless artist?]
Qin Xian and Qin Zhao: ... Although they hadn't poached her yet, just thinking about having such a motivated Pei Mingxuan manage an artist like this made them feel guilty.
Gao Hao, on the other hand, had already started considering the possibilities. Since the two men with absolute say in this matter were present, Gao Hao asked them directly.
Qin Zhao had no objections, but Qin Xian lowered his head in thought for a while.
"Mr. Qin, is there something unsuitable?" Gao Hao asked, "Are you worried that Pei Mingxuan won't be able to let go of her feelings and won't be willing to terminate her contract with Sun Mo?"
Ji Fei said, "That won't happen."
Qin Xian nodded and said, "Pei Mingxuan is smart and ambitious. She's also done her utmost for Sun Mo. With Sun Mo's foreseeable troubles in the future, she won't continue to stay in that pit. She'll definitely terminate their working relationship as soon as possible, but she may not be able to come out unscathed."
Qin Zhao said, "Regarding the performance agreement issue, if we can poach her, we can help bear the losses first."
Qin Xian shook his head, "Money isn't the problem."
Now even Ji Fei was curious, "Then what could be the problem?"
Qin Xian looked over, his jet-black eyes seeming able to see through everything.
"You just said that Yang Hong promised to help them get back together, and guaranteed that the whole internet wouldn't criticize them. What do you think could be the method?"
The three of them blinked, all looking clueless.
"For an event that can stir up fan emotions, there must be a scapegoat to bear all the malicious emotions. It's not Yang Hong, who had his girlfriend stolen. It's not Sun Mo, who stole someone else's girlfriend. It's not Xu Meng, who wavered between two men. So who could it reasonably be, even with some past facts to support it?"
After Qin Xian finished speaking, the car was quiet for a long time.
It took Ji Fei a while to react, "No... it can't be. Even if Sun Mo isn't a good person, he wouldn't be so ungrateful, would he? If he doesn't cooperate..."
"Hm? Hasn't the gratitude already been taken by Xu Meng?" Qin Zhao frowned.
Qin Xian said, "Of course, this is just a possibility. If we want to sign her, we must consider this point."
Gao Hao coughed and said, "I think we can postpone the matter of poaching Pei Mingxuan."
From a manager's perspective, Gao Hao wouldn't want to poach a manager full of scandals. If things really developed as Qin Xian predicted, Pei Mingxuan could only leave the entertainment industry.
But what Gao Hao didn't know was that the artist under his management wasn't a docile one.
Ji Fei clutched her phone tightly and smiled mischievously, "Don't worry, if it really turns out that way, I have a way to deal with them."
Qin Zhao also spoke up, "About the script... I suddenly want to change it."
Ji Fei was stunned, "Wait, what do you mean? I just memorized all the lines."
Qin Zhao raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Don't worry, improvise. You'll enjoy performing it."
Ji Fei: Really?
The show's director and producer were very nervous because the top-tier group had changed to a confidential script again.
The last time it was confidential was last time, and then the Best Actor Team was gone.
Thinking that the two male god teams shouldn't have conflicts with the top-tier group, so the thing they were worried about shouldn't happen, right?
The director and producer held hands to encourage each other, finally welcoming the third live broadcast.
Before the broadcast, everyone greeted each other backstage.
Ji Fei finally escaped from the intense rehearsal and could now peacefully observe the drama unfolding.
Usually, Pei Mingxuan would have come over early to inquire about the confidential script for her artist's sake, just in case. But this time, Pei Mingxuan was just routinely handling the things a manager should handle, not expending any extra effort.
[Sister Pei like this resembles an employee about to resign, unwilling to put in any extra effort beyond their salary. But she's cold on the outside and warm on the inside, still thinking about Sun Mo's fans at this time.]
Then they heard an argument break out between Pei Mingxuan and Sun Mo.
The atmosphere between the two had already been tense recently, and now it made the busy staff around them quiet down and prick up their ears to eavesdrop.
