Chapter 262 – He couldn’t make Ye Zhen fall in love with him at first sight, so he could only patiently coax her and let familiarity breed fondness (3)
I'm Pregnant with the Villain's Child
âMiss Shen, itâs like this. You also know that Lu Corporation has acquired Chaoxun Entertainment. The company told me to take time off because of that online incident about Ye Zhen. Itâs been almost three months and thereâs no news from the company...â
Shen Weiyin interrupted her, âMiss Ye, if you have something to say, just say it. Iâm on a set right now. Iâm pressed for time.â
Since Shen Weiyin said that, Ye Qing went straight to the purpose of her call. âI still have some information about Ye Zhen. If you want it, I can give it to you as long as you help me resolve the matter of my contract with Chaoxun.â
Shen Weiyin chuckled. It sounded derisive, but that might just be her misconception.
âMiss Ye, Iâm very sorry. Iâm not interested at all in Mrs. Luâs affairs or your contract problem with Chaoxun Entertainment. You should contact your company to resolve it yourself. Whatâs the use in contacting me?â
âBut...â
âI canât keep talking to you. Iâm busy, bye.â
The sound of the dial tone.
Hearing that Shen Weiyin had hung up on her, Ye Qing furrowed her brow. She called the number again, but it went to voicemail.
She quietly cursed. Unwilling to accept this result, she called Older Sister. To her surprise, her call was answered.
âOlder Sister Li, itâs me, Ye Qing!â Wary that Older Sister Li would hang up, Ye Qing blurted out in one breath, âYou gave me a guarantee that you would help me resolve my contract with Chaoxun Entertainment. Itâs been three months. Why havenât you...â
âYes, I did guarantee that, but I didnât know that you had signed a 20 year contract with Chaoxun.â Older Sister Li mockingly asked, âMiss Ye, times are different now. Who would sign a contract to sell away 20 years of their life? You might as well bind the rest of your life to Chaoxun. And your penalty for breaking the contract is eight figures. Let me level with you, do you really think youâre worth eight figures?â
Ye Qing was stunned, and then a nameless anger ignited in her heart. âWhat do you mean?â
âExactly what I said.â Older Sister Li didnât want to waste time talking to her. âThis will be our last call. Weâre both people that have been in the entertainment industry for a while. You should know what my words mean. In any case, weâve worked together a few times. Iâve given you many benefits. Letâs have an amicable parting.â
âAn amicable parting?â
âYes, an amicable parting.â Older Sister Li smiled. âHow about this? Iâll give you a suggestion. If you really want to leave Chaoxun Entertainment, thatâs not impossible. With money, you can do anything you want. The Yeâs have such a big company. It canât be that your family canât even pay a measly eight figure fee to break the contract, right?â
Ye Qing can certainly afford to pay the fee, but the problem she couldnât solve was that Lu Corporation was blacklisting her. Even if she left Chaoxun Entertainment, there was no entertainment company out there that was willing to go against Lu Corporation to sign a small star like her. It wouldnât be worth it for them.
âAlright, I have nothing left to say. Goodbye, Miss Ye.â
Ye Qing held the phone and heard the dial tone. For a while, she was at a loss for what to do next.
She had hit a wall and been scr*wed over in quick succession. Almost nothing had worked out for her since she was reborn.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
She had obviously seized all the key opportunities, so why did she end up with nothing?
Ye Qing didnât understand why things had turned out this way. As she held her phone, she couldnât stop her hand from trembling.
