Shao Yong’s gaze moved to him, he seemed to vaguely remember, he looked at Yao Xiuyuan in doubt.
Yao Xiuyuan explained, “Tang Yu’s person.”
Shao Yong finally remembered, “I think we met at a bar when we were hanging out.”
Yao Xiuyuan saw Ying Nian on Valentine’s Day last year and thought he had seen him somewhere, but he didn’t remember, he wanted to ask Shao Yong then, but he didn’t take a picture and didn’t know the other’s name, so he moved on. Now that Shao Yong mentioned it, he remembered.
One time he and Shao Yong went to the bar for a drink, they heard a commotion not far away, looked back and saw a good-looking boy standing not far away with an angry expression, gritting his teeth and not talking, he looked very stubborn. The last thing that happened was that Tang Yu got up and persuaded him, and coaxed him to sit down.
At that time, as Tang Yu hugged him, Shao Yong even teased, “Tang Yu has a good eye.”
“Unfortunately, it’s useless.” Yao Xiuyuan said, “His family won’t let him like boys, it’s okay for fun, but not for marriage, unless he’s willing to take nothing and get kicked out of the Tang family.”
“That’s true.” Shao Yong replied.
He just didn’t expect that this person would be Ji Qingzhou’s friend.
Chu Cheng heard their whispers, and moved closer to Yao Xiuyuan, “Has he moved to your place?”
Shao Yong instantly looked at Yao Xiuyuan with glowing eyes, “What’s going on? Did I skip class? How come he’s moving to your place?”
They were standing on the outskirts of the crowd, and their voices were low, so Ying Nian, who was chatting with Ji Qingzhou, wouldn’t hear them.
Yao Xiuyuan looked at Shao Yong helplessly, “It’s because of Tang Yu, that scum, he broke up and still wants to pester him, he’s just a small star, his thin arms can’t twist Tang Yu’s legs, he can be found wherever he hides. But when Zhouzhou and Ah Cheng split up, he stayed with Zhouzhou, so Ah Cheng did a favor and said he’d let him stay at my place to stop Tang Yu from pestering him all the time.”
Shao Yong nodded, “Yes, Anming and Qin Xue live at home, Jingjing will sometimes come over to my place, it isn’t suitable, it can only be you. OK, escort ~”
“I’m doing the right thing, by definition, I should also be commended, okay?”
“Thirty thousand yuan.” Chu Cheng had experience in this matter, “Your righteousness can be rewarded up to 30,000, take good care of him, this bonus, I’ll give it to you on behalf of the government.”
“Then you better keep it for yourself.”

Ji Qingzhou glanced backward and saw Yao Xiuyuan and Chu Cheng standing at the back, he turned to Ying Nian, “That is Yao Xiuyuan, when will you move? How come you haven’t moved yet? I’m afraid that Tang Yu will find you again.”
“P’w qjmxlcu, P mbcajmafv tlw fjgilfg jcv rjlv P’ii wbnf atfgf joafg Rfk Tfjg’r Gjs, ktlmt lr abwbggbk.”

“Are you okay?” Yu Anming asked her.
Yu Anyi choked and nodded, “Yes, I’m fine, I just think these two brothers are quite miserable.”
Ji Qingzhou advised her, “Just forget your sadness after the movie ends.”
Yu Anyi nodded and took out her phone to text Lian Jingxing.
Lian Jingxing was at a loss about the fact that she went to see Broken Light and sent him a film review, so he carefully asked her, “Who did you go to see it with?”
“Ji Qingzhou invited us.” Yu Anyi responded truthfully.
Lian Jingxing was relieved. He looked at his mobile phone and hesitated for a long time before replying: If you like watching movies, next time, I’ll invite you to watch my movie premiere.
Yu Anyi didn’t think much about it: Okay.
Lian Jingxing looked at her text, and smiled subconsciously.
After watching the movie, it was late, everyone wanted to go home. Among them, only Ying Nian didn’t drink and drove by himself. Others either drank or didn’t drive, so Ying Nian volunteered, “Qingzhou, you and Chu Cheng can get in my car, I’ll take you back.”
Chu Cheng didn’t think it was necessary. His and Ying Nian’s residence weren’t close, and Ying Nian would have to make a detour. “Send Ah Yuan home, aren’t you going to move to his house tomorrow? Know the way, stop by and look at the house, so you won’t bring anything you don’t need. ”
Ying Nian thought that was okay, so he raised his eyes to Yao Xiuyuan’s direction.
Yao Xiuyuan actually wanted to go out with Shao Yong, but since Chu Cheng said so, it wouldn’t be good to refuse, “Okay, then I’ll go first, see you some other time.”
“Mm.”
He walked to Ying Nian’s side and naturally said, “Let’s go.”
Ying Nian nodded, said goodbye to Ji Qingzhou, Chu Cheng and Yu Anyi, and the others, before he and Yao Xiuyuan walked towards the elevator.
Yu Anyi asked curiously, “Did Ying Nian sign to Western Entertainment?”
“Yes.”
“But I don’t think I’ve seen any work from him with him in it recently.”
“He was talking about a TV series deal that was about to be completed, but Tang Yu ruined it. Ying Nian didn’t want his agent to be embarrassed, so he said he wouldn’t take on any drama until after Tang Yu’s drama and his temper had gone down.”
Yu Anyi felt it was funny. “Is it necessary for Tang Yu to do this? Doesn’t he feel ashamed? ”
“Obviously, he doesn’t think so.” Chu Cheng said.
They chatted for a while, when the car came, they said goodbye and left.
Ji Qingzhou just got into the car, when his phone rang, when he saw it was Zhou Chengfeng, he immediately picked up, “What is it?”
“Qingzhou, let me ask you, did director Sheng discuss with you about your contract?”
“No, why do you ask?”
“Then did he say he wanted to sign you?”
“He did say that, but I refused.” Ji Qingzhou said.
Zhou Chengfeng understood, “Just now Director Meng called me, he said that Director Sheng wanted to pay the breach of contract for you, release you from the contract with Western Entertainment, and sign you to him. But Director Meng didn’t agree, saying that this matter had to be decided by you. Director Sheng asked what if Mr. Chu agreed? But Director Meng said that the rules are set by Mr. Chu, if the artists of Western Entertainment want to cancel their contract, or jump ship, they could, but the artists had to talk to the company first, and then they’d talk about the rest. So Director Meng called me and asked me if you had the intention to terminate your contract recently. If so, you should talk to the company directly, instead of sending Director Sheng.”
“I didn’t.” Ji Qingzhou was dumbfounded, “Why would I want to terminate my contract for no good reason?”
“Of course I know you didn’t, so I already told Director Meng. It’s just that I didn’t expect that Director Sheng would want to sign you and would call Director Meng directly, so I was a little surprised and thought I’d talk to you about it.”
Ji Qingzhou was also surprised, “He did ask me, but I already refused him, I refused very clearly, he couldn’t possibly not understand, how could he!”
Ji Qingzhou was a little angry, he finished speaking with Zhou Chengfeng, hung up the phone and gave Sheng Wenxi a call.
Sheng Wenxi received a rare phone call from him, he guessed that it might be about the contract, but he thought he was doing it for his own good, so he didn’t avoid it and answered.
“Director Sheng, did you call Director Meng today to cancel my contract with Western Entertainment?”
“Yes.” Sheng Wenxi said frankly.
“On what grounds?” Ji Qingzhou said angrily, “Am I a commodity? You didn’t even ask for my consent or my opinion, yet you directly meddled in my affairs like this?”
“Would you have agreed? You wouldn’t, so did I need to ask your opinion? Ji Qingzhou, I’m doing this for your own good.”
“I don’t need you to do this for my good!” Ji Qingzhou said angrily, “Who are you to be good for me? Who are you to me? You don’t even know what I want, so what do you mean by good for me! Your good for me is to treat me as a commodity that can be bought and sold, as long as you want, you can buy it, right?”
“You are too excited, you should calm down a little. If you continue to stay in Western Entertainment, your movie resources will only be like ‘Broken Light’ and ‘On Earth’, your resources are restricted, will you have good resources? Yes, but you won’t have good resources all the time. You are a very spiritual actor, your limit is very high, you should explore your potential, instead of hiding in your comfort zone because you’re afraid of your fears and don’t dare to fight. People grow by constantly overcoming their fears, and you should too.”
“Just because you think I should be, do I have to be? You love art, you pursue art, but I don’t. My life isn’t just about acting, there are other things that are important to me, I can’t dedicate my life to acting, and I can’t sacrifice myself for the sake of acting in a movie. It’s your business if you’re willing, but you have no right to ask me to be willing too.”
“Ji Qingzhou, you’re being ……”
“You don’t have to care how I am,” Ji Qingzhou interrupted him, “you just need know that I have my own thoughts and views, I hate when people don’t respect me, I hate when people ignore my opinion to decide things for me! Am I brainless? Am I incapable of making my own decisions? You don’t care about anything, do you think you respect me? If you can’t even do the bare minimum, what qualifications do you have to invite me to act in your movie? I’m telling you, I won’t be in any of your films, not just Ah Heng’s. I’m not the only actor in this world, but you’re not the only director in this world either.”
Sheng Wenxi was angered by his words, “I’m doing this for your own good! What good is it for you to stay at Western Entertainment? Do you want to be Chu Cheng’s canary for the rest of your life?”
Ji Qingzhou was about to hang up the phone when his hand froze, “What did you say?”
“Look at your resume, a total of four films, Chu Cheng invested in two TV series, you’re being backed by him, aren’t you?”
Ji Qingzhou lightly laughed, “Then why don’t you look at it, I have a variety show, I went through Lian Jingxing, my two movies, one is through him, the other was recommended by the director of the last movie, also considered to be indirectly through him, according to you, shouldn’t I be backed by Lian Jingxing?”
Sheng Wenxi froze for a moment, he didn’t think of that, did he guess wrong?
SWX is such a pest!
Thank you for this chapter!!
SWX is like that one playboy who always got what he wanted and suddenly this one girl reject him, he become obsessed like true in love while later may be bored about her after he got her
also, what a hypocrite SWX is! he talked that he want to free JQZ but planning to control JQZ after signing under him! what’s the difference in being a “canary” and an artist under him if both has no freedom?
Lol talking to people like this director who can’t possibly see where they are wrong is useless. No matter what you say, they will turn a deaf ear to anything that is contradictory to what they think.
Yes baby! Go off!!!
Every human being have their own opinions and beliefs. A person fighting their fear to overcome it is either ignorant or someone who thinks of the benefits. But what if they failed? They’d be forever damage and no one can ever repair them. Someone who stays at his comfort zone is a person finding for the right timing for the good opportunities that would come or they found. Mc knows what the pros and cons are. He’s not an idiot and he chooses what path he takes. Forcing him would only make him retaliate and go against you even further dumbass.
I’m so mad at SWX!!! (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻
What is this doing for your own good!? Everyone had their fears and everyone can overcome them in their own time, it is not cowardly or bad to not want to dive head first into something that could hurt you! Should I touch an open flame to get over my fear of fire?! No!! It should be gradual and in my own time! If people start waving fire at me to “help” me with my fear, i will just fear more and resent them! I hate this director, he only thinks of himself
Aghhhh~
SWX reflect on your actions!!! The emoji clown is being passed to you 🤡 You can share it with it Tang Yu or whatever his name is 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🥺
