“This is not about the liquidated damages,, it’s about reputation! It was your Advertising Director who approached our Aiyi, asking her to endorse your products. Now that we’ve cleared our schedule and she’s come all the way here,, you tell us you’re not filming and have replaced her. Isn’t your company bullying us?”
“Sister Lili,, you’re making it hard for me. The higher-ups said to change the person, what can a small employee like me do?” The Public Relations Manager said with a troubled expression.
The agent wanted to argue further, but Sheng Aiyi stopped her, removing her sunglasses, her beautiful eyes revealing the demeanor of a Morally Lady. Being replaced at the last minute didn’t seem to anger her much,, and she maintained her gentle and elegant composure. However, her gentleness and elegance exuded a sense of aloof pride,, “Sister Lili, that’s enough. The manager is right,, don’t make it hard for her.”
“But…” The agent, frustrated, stopped herself mid-sentence out of respect for Sheng Aiyi!
Sheng Aiyi calmed her down and turned her face towards the Public Relations Manager, speaking politely,, “Manager, I won’t make it difficult for you. I just want to ask one question: who are these ‘higher-ups’ you mentioned?”
The aunt had already greeted Xingyao’s CEO; it couldn’t have been the CEO.
Someone higher than that left only one possibility!
The Public Relations Manager was in a bind,, “This…”
Sheng Aiyi, as if failing to notice the manager’s discomfort, waited calmly for her to continue,, seeming determined not to let the matter go until she got an answer.
“Miss Sheng, I really shouldn’t disclose that. How about this: if there’s a good project opportunity next time, I’ll definitely recommend you strongly.”
Sheng Aiyi was almost certain about who had replaced her. She pressed her lips together tightly, changed her sitting posture, and placed her hands on the table,, “Fine, if you won’t tell me, then I’ll change the question. Who replaced me? You can say that, right?”
Replacing Sheng Aiyi seemed to be a newbie; that should be okay to say. After considering it, the Public Relations Manager said with a smile,, “Miss Sheng wants to know, of course, you can be told. Actually, this year our company plans to launch a newcomer, an entirely fresh face, not someone from the entertainment circle.”
“A newcomer? Is her last name Chi?”
“Miss Sheng knows her?” The Public Relations Manager asked in surprise.
Chi Enen…
Sheng Aiyi involuntarily clenched her fists.
It was her again.
Her expression shifted uncertainly,, the Public Relations Manager was about to probe further when Sheng Aiyi picked up her bag,, abruptly stood up, and said, “Alright, I’ve got it. Regarding the breach of contract and compensation,, I’ll have the lawyers from my Talent Agency discuss it with you. If there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving now.”
“Aiyi?”
The agent didn’t understand why she suddenly decided to leave. Watching Sheng Aiyi stride out,, she glared angrily at the Public Relations Manager and hurried after her.
“Aiyi, wait for me.” She finally caught up with Sheng Aiyi at the main entrance and grabbed her,, “Aiyi, why did you leave just like that? They stood us up, we can’t just let it go easily. Let me talk to them some more, get their company executives out here, and maybe if the talks go well, you could still be the spokesperson?”
“No need.”
“Why is that not necessary?”
“Because you won’t be able to negotiate. The decisions he makes never change because of anyone.” The decisions made by Li Beijue, who could change them!
The agent furrowed her eyebrows and asked her,, “You know that company executive?”
“Sort of.” Sheng Aiyi pursed the corners of her mouth and pulled her hand away,, “Sister Lili, I have to meet someone. Don’t schedule anything for me this afternoon.”
With that, she hurried away.
