Chapter 137 The boss lady is really hardworking
Then she saw a panicked look on Shen Qingxi's face. It was the first time Shen Qingxi had lost control since she entered the room.
But he quickly returned to normal, pretending to be relaxed and saying, "No one. Maybe someone just doesn't like me."
The agent nodded and prepared to open the door and go out.
"After you go back and discuss my situation with the company, you can terminate your agency contract with me. I've already been there, so it's just a side thing. To be honest, you're not the only one who's tired from working with us because of our different values."
"Then you..." After all, he was someone she had taken care of for many years, and she couldn't bear to see him leave at this time.
"Me? What's wrong with me? I have so many people lined up behind me, waiting to be ordered around by me. You still have the heart to care about me? You should worry about yourself. Without me, those artists you manage won't even be able to get the resources that I don't care about. How long can you keep the position of the top agent in your company?"
His agent didn't react to his sarcastic remarks. He simply said, "I'll talk to the company. From now on... take care of yourself."
Shen Qingxi looked at the door that closed again and slumped down on the bed in dejection.
He and his agent were just mocking others, but wasn't he the same? He'd lost his mind over a man, lost his usual rationality and clarity, and that was how he ended up in this situation.
However, he had underestimated how much Fu Xiuyan cared about that person. He simply wanted to spread a vague rumor. He didn't really want to do anything. Looking around the entertainment industry, who doesn't have a bunch of scandals?
He assumed that no matter how upset Fu Xiuyan was, he would just clarify things later. But he hadn't expected him to pull the plug. With everyone's attention now focused on him, Shen Qingxi, who would still care about the rumored post? He had already searched for it. The post had vanished. Completely gone, not a trace left. It was as if it had all been his hallucination, a thing that had never occurred.
What Shen Qingxi least expected was that he would react so quickly.
Judging from the stuff he'd seen online, he'd probably already been investigating and wary of him. When did it start? When he first met that boy, or when? He had no idea.
Shen Qingxi just felt regret. Extremely regretful.
If he had known this would happen, why would he have done such a harmless thing? He should have taken advantage of Fu Xiuyan being alone and thrown a cup of medicine into his tea. Maybe the situation would be different now.
The internet was buzzing with activity all night. Shen Qingxi's agent rushed over, stayed for half an hour, and then hurried back to the company. He spent the night negotiating terms with the company's top management. Shen Qingxi himself hadn't slept all night, doing nothing but staring blankly.
The calmest thing was probably when Fu Xiuyan got on the nanny car.
Xia Yang nestled in Fu Xiuyan's arms, sleeping soundly. Fu Xiuyan was not sleepy at all, and took Xia Yang's slender fingers in his hands and played with them.
The phone screen lit up a few times and then dimmed.
Fu Xiuyan kissed each of Xia Yang's fingertips reluctantly before letting go.
It’s news from Luohan.
Luohan: Your prediction is correct. Shen Qingxi has a backup plan. Furthermore, the executives of his company, whom we had contacted, have also turned against us. His company has now issued a statement defending Shen Qingxi.
Luo Han: From what I understand, this isn't her manager's style. I'm afraid it's Shen Qingxi's own idea. This person is truly remarkable. If he stopped being a manager and became her manager, I'm afraid he'd have a powerful rival. He's truly unscrupulous.
Luohan: The internet is buzzing right now. I don't know if everyone's still awake, or if they just woke up. It's only been a short while, but the online sentiment towards Shen Qingxi has already started to improve. If I hadn't been so clever and prepared, I'm afraid he would have gotten away with it this time.
Fu Xiuyan typed lazily:
[Fu Xiuyan: In another hour, it will be dawn.]
Luohan: Yeah, it's cold now, and the sun's rising late. I know you're going to say I've been through a hard night. It doesn't matter. I'll sacrifice everything for the boss. If the boss truly feels guilty, just multiply my year-end bonus several times over. Hehehehe...
[Fu Xiuyan: Xia Xia has something important to do this morning, so she will get up early.]
Luo Han scratched his head at his desk. Was this something he could listen to? Was it something he could care less about when the boss's wife would get up?
Luohan: Oh! The boss lady is so hardworking! She's so talented, yet she works even harder than everyone else! Boss, could you please persuade her to take a break? Leave some opportunities for us ordinary people?
Although he didn't know why his boss told him this, he was afraid of flattery and would never go wrong.
[Fu Xiuyan: If you can't handle this before your boss's wife wakes up, pack up and leave. Don't let those dirty things get in his way.]
Luo Han patted his frightened heartbeat. So this was it. He was scared to death. It was a simple matter.
[Luohan: I promise to restore peace of mind to my boss lady!]
Fu Xiuyan put his phone down and pulled Xia Yang into his arms again. He didn't care what methods Shen Qingxi used or how he defended himself. In his eyes, he only saw Xia Yang. Although he knew that this kind of thing would not have any impact on Xia Yang, he couldn't bear to see Xia Xia frown. Besides, Shen Qingxi didn't look like a good person, so the sooner he dealt with it, the better to avoid leaving any hidden dangers. This time he was targeting himself, but there was no guarantee that he wouldn't want to touch his Xia Xia next time. How could he allow such a thing to happen?!
Shen Qingxi sat in his hotel room until late at night, waiting for his agent's response. His eyes grew brighter, a stark contrast to his pale face from a sleepless night.
When the assistant cautiously pushed the door open to bring him his umpteenth cup of coffee today, he felt like he had seen a ghost when he saw Shen Qingxi like this.
Add to that the scene in the car the night before, where the assistant was shaking all over and coffee spilled from the cup, a few drops splashing onto the back of Shen Qingxi's hand.
The assistant was terrified: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Xi... Teacher Shen, I didn't mean to. I'll wipe it clean for you."
The assistant frantically pulled out a few pieces of tissue and started to wipe Shen Qingxi. But Shen Qingxi stopped her. When Shen Qingxi's cold fingertips touched her skin, the assistant felt like she was being poisoned. Terrified, terrified, yet unable to break free, she froze in place.
Shen Qingxi slowly took the tissue from her hand and wiped off the coffee stains on the back of her hand bit by bit.
Then he looked up and grinned at his assistant: "What happened, sister? It's just a little coffee stain. Wipe it off and throw it away. It's nothing. Everything is normal. What's there to be afraid of?"
