Chapter 180 – “Have him add one more zero to the amount.” (2)

Stories about Li ShiZe spread within their circle. His not-so-good reputation completely hit rock bottom. Many talked in private how toxic of a person Jiang YaGe was and how she had turned someone with a bright future like Li ShiZe to what he had become today. From where Fang JunRong stood, the two of them were about the same. Match made in heaven, almost. There was no need to say which one of them was too good for the other.

Even though Li ShiZe had already mucked it all up but he still has some money left with him. If he was to buckle down and live his life, his days would still be better than that of a regular person. But it was always difficult going from riches to rags; whether they were willing to settle for that lifestyle was a different question.

All in all, Li ShiZe’s future no longer concerned her.

At that moment in time, she felt that the burden that had been weighting her down had been lifted and she felt a sense of relief between her eyes and brows.

On the other end, by the end of December, Jiang DeXian’s contract with Yingce Media was finally up. He met with his agent for the very last time before he left the company. He didn’t hate the company too much. Even though they had set him aside for not succumbing to offering up sexual favors, but they also didn’t use any others to force him into it other than putting his aside and ignoring him as if he didn’t exist. Nor did they care about him finding work outside of the company.

When it came to companies of their type, they already had bottom line and conscience.

The agent looked at him and looked like he had something to say. Finally, all he said was, “If this is your choice, I’ll respect it.”

Aye. He had thought that Jiang DeXian would stand his ground permanently but he finally gave in to a woman.

Jiang DeXian lifted his brows but just smiled without saying anything. Many felt that he followed Fang JunRong around in order to save ten years of hard work.

“Well, you are not young anymore. Better take the opportunity to make as much as you can.

“You need to have a plan for yourself. For example, it’s best to buy yourself a house,” said the agent caringly. “Just let me know if you ever want to come back. I might not be able to do much, but I can at least get you a role that has a couple lines.”

Jiang DeXian rubbed his temples and said, “Actually, I already own a house.”

The agent was surprised as well. “Really? You got yourself a house already?” It looked like he truly has a special place with Fang JunRong. Hadn’t the two of them only met like two months ago?

Jiang DeXian said casually, “I bought it myself. I’ve made some money in the stock market a while back.”

The agent gave him a suspicious look and seriously suspected that he received instructions from Fang JunRong. He waved at him and said, “Okay, that all I have to say then.”

As soon as Jiang DeXian walked out of the front door, the agent received a call. He quickly ran after Jiang DeXian and stopped him.

“What’s the matter?” asked Jiang DeXian.

The agent, panting, spoke quickly with a very excited look. “There was a large production that asked for you to be the male lead by name! Do you want to go to the audition?”

He had originally thought that this would be an opportunity that Jiang DeXian could not turn down. Leeching off of a woman might sound cozy and all, especially when the woman was rich and attractive, but a life like that had too much uncertainties. He would risk being dumped any day. It would be much better to become a star and earned both fame and money on his own.

Jiang DeXian, on the other hand, frowned and asked, “Which production?”

“Forever Night. It’s a sci-fi movie with budget over 50 million yuan! And it was the work of Director Ji with a very reliable team. Film Emperor Fang JueMing was the most likely person to nab the role of the male lead before. Too bad he had injured his hand.”
