Do Not Speak Ill of My Mother!

Chapter 504: 488 That convinced you?

Even if he refuses, there are plenty of means and methods...

There could even be designated villains and saviors who appear afterward.

By the time you decide to leave, it’ll be too late.

Don’t gamble on human nature, but if you really must bet, shouldn’t you choose the person you trust the most to take that risk?

Si Younian slowly started to speak, "I agree."

Xue Yi was stunned for a moment, unable to believe what he heard, he repeated, "What did Shixiong just say? I didn’t hear clearly..."

Did he mean what I think he did?! I haven’t even said much, and he agreed?!

Si Younian sighed in relief as if a weight had been lifted off his shoulders, articulating every word, "I said, I agree to your invitation."

"Really?"

Xue Yi almost jumped up the stairs, as a smile quickly spread from the corners of his lips to his eyes.

"That’s great~ Shixiong! I’m so happy that you can come to Xingyue!"

"Happy?" Si Younian, with the huge stone in his heart now fallen, also felt like joking, "Aren’t you afraid I’ll come over and snatch your resources?"

"If Shixiong is capable, he naturally deserves more resources," Xue Yi said sincerely, "I might be envious, but I won’t be jealous of Shixiong."

Si Younian earnestly said, "I think, Xiao Yi, you are no worse than anyone else, you might even be better than me."

After hearing this, Xue Yi opened his mouth in shock. His breath turned into a white mist in the air. As he watched the cold condensing vapor, he suddenly felt like his throat was choked up, and he found it hard to speak.

For so many years, he was the first person, even someone who had made significant achievements in the entertainment industry, to tell him to his face—he was no worse than anyone else...

Xue Yi lowered his lashes, his eyes brimming with hot tears, and his voice took on a different tone, "Shixiong... thank you... for such recognition, I... I am very grateful..."

He admitted that in these years, he had been busy trying to make money and survive, hardly fulfilling the duties of an entertainer.

Forget about movies, he hadn’t even acted in many TV dramas. Instead, he kept running back and forth between money-making variety shows and bookings or otherwise at events led by Feng Hong.

And his Shixiong, throughout these years, had worked hard in silence, producing many worthy projects!

The two were clearly in entirely different realms.

Yet, Shixiong comforted him, saying he was no worse than anyone else...

This feeling of being trusted, it was like how President Yue was absolutely certain he could complete those two missions, it was exhilarating and passionate!

Si Younian soothingly said, "Let bygones be bygones regarding the past. I’ll join Xingyue once I wrap up my current affairs. From now on, as brothers, we’ll work hard together!"

Moved to tears, Xue Yi’s voice trembled as he promised, "Okay."

The following day, in the CEO’s office.

Yan Yueqing looked up, quite surprised, "You’re saying Si Younian agreed?"

Xue Yi looked down, somewhat nervously, "Yes, he agreed last night, but he still needs to sort out some things before he can come to Xingyue."

Yan Yueqing was even more astonished.

In just one evening, Xue Yi had persuaded Si Younian?

To be honest, the task she had set for Xue Yi was a choice between two options.

The task of poaching Si Younian was too difficult, and truly a bit unfair to ask. But at that time, Yan Yueqing’s idea was to give him a seemingly impossible task first and then, as a fallback, let him accept another task that appeared equally impossible.

Earning a billion in a year, compared to poaching Si Younian, many would find the former even harder.

But after the contract came out, even Zhou Jue admitted that she had shown mercy.

She provided resources worth forty to fifty million, merely asking to double that, which is far less compared to starting from scratch! If one can’t make a billion from that, they really should say goodbye to the entertainment industry! They’re not cut out for this line of work!

Then there was the mission to poach Younian from Si.

That was a direct strike at the lifeline of Soaring Sky!

Who is Younian Si? The central pillar of Soaring Sky, the top-trending star of the past two years!

How many olive branches have other companies extended to him? Many top-notch entertainment companies failed to move his heart with their S-tier contracts. What could Xingyue possibly offer to tempt them?

It couldn’t just be personal charm, right?

Yan Yueqing had her suspicions!

Even when Zhongxing was rapidly developing, she never thought it possible to sway Younian’s heart.

Let alone now, with Xingyue in the midst of restructuring?

Could it be that Younian, from across mountains and seas, suddenly took a fancy to Xingyue’s future prospects and decided to leave everything behind to work for them?

It was as if someone had given up a job with an annual salary of ten million to work at a small factory for a million a year.

Isn’t that crazy?

But Xue Yi really pulled it off?

Yan Yueqing couldn’t help but sigh—the bond between fellow disciples was indeed strong! No wonder that in the book, Younian Si, affected by Xue Yi’s actions, insisted on not coming out to explain.

Seeing the boss’s surprise for a moment, Xue Yi then revealed an expression of sudden realization.

He couldn’t help pondering in his mind—The boss is the boss! She must have known that poaching his fellow disciple wasn’t a dream! Having him take on the task must have been her way of letting him share the credit, to quickly solidify his position in the company, right?

After all, whoever managed to poach Younian Si, it would be a great achievement for the company!

In the midst of their self-speculation, which was like chickens talking to ducks, Younian’s matter was settled.

As a gesture of sincerity, Zhou Jue personally contacted the other party to discuss the contract.

Yan Yueqing also handed Xue Yi the endorsement deal with DLRS.

This matter wasn’t hidden from anyone, and within three days, the entire company knew about it.

Wenwen was so excited she almost jumped up, "Sister Hu!! Did you know?! Younian Si is coming to our company?"

Hu Tao seemed to hear a tall tale, "Have you gone crazy from work? Younian Si coming to our company? He’s doing well at Soaring Sky, why would he come here?"

It’s fake!

It sounds unbelievable right off the bat!

Wenwen covered her little mouth and giggled sneakily, "I heard it was Xue Yi who went to poach him! Who would have thought he’d be so capable, actually managing to bring Younian Si over?"

"Xue Yi?" Hu Tao paused, finding it even more unlikely, "He’s an artist, not an agent, how could he know how to poach someone?"

Wenwen said mysteriously, "I heard the two of them were fellow disciples from school!"

"Even so, that’s still impossible. Although Soaring Sky operates as a studio, they’ve promoted Younian Si so high! Used to fine dining, why would he come to Xingyue for plain fare?"

After saying that, Hu Tao felt something was not right and corrected herself, "I don’t mean to say that Xingyue is bad, haha, the company is indeed getting better and better, but it still falls short compared to Soaring Sky... Just in terms of resources, how could the company possibly give them to one artist? Besides, President Yue is now heavily promoting Xue Yi, would he suddenly poach someone and split his own resources? The more I think about it, the less credible it seems!"

Wenwen nodded, "Sister Hu is absolutely right, but you see, the company is not just a machine that knows how to operate~ Since President Yue came, this place has become warmer~ Maybe Younian Si just likes companies with a human touch?

Moreover, ever since his debut, he has always maintained a divinely indifferent demeanor, as if nothing could affect his emotions, right? For a deity, having human emotions is quite normal. Perhaps the fellowship between fellow disciples is what he cherishes the most~"
