Do Not Speak Ill of My Mother!
Chapter 521: Unexpected President Yue

Chapter 521: Unexpected President Yue

"Falling for two scumbags, the ending was naturally quite awful."

Yan Yueqing sighed, "To come out unscathed from their hands, you really must have some skill."

"I don’t have skills, just picked some more powerful scions to protect me, so they temporarily didn’t dare to lay a hand on me," Xi Hongxia said with self-mockery. "I know the outside world doesn’t speak well of me, saying I’m kept, saying I’m like currency circulating among the wealthy."

Yan Yueqing didn’t see it that way. "Getting involved with a scion might have elements of vanity or being kept, but to navigate through a crowd with ease, that’s your skill."

She was sincere, "At least, none of the guys you’ve dated has come forward to slander you. Anyone else is just not as capable as you and is spreading rumors out of jealousy."

Xi Hongxia’s eyes brightened, "Do you really think so?"

Yan Yueqing spread her hands, "Otherwise?"

Xi Hongxia’s lips curled up slightly. She was beautiful, and her smile was even more enchanting, making Yan Yueqing’s heartbeat race.

Such a beauty! Once she debuts, it’s uncertain about the men, but she’ll definitely appeal to women!

Yan Yueqing controlled her composure and cleared her throat, "All right, we’re done talking. Go sign in with Teacher Ji. He’s strict, and knowing you’ve been invited out for tea by me, he must be stewing."

These words genuinely stunned Xi Hongxia, "You... you’re sending me to Teacher Ji?"

Yan Yueqing thought she was reluctant to work with Teacher Ji. "What, you have other plans?"

Xi Hongxia’s gaze dimmed momentarily, "I... I thought, after the background check was done, you specially called me here... to terminate the contract."

"How could that be possible?" laughed Yan Yueqing. "You’re Xingyue’s future cash cow; how could I bear to terminate your contract?"

Seeing Xi Hongxia didn’t believe her, she said earnestly, "I called you here to confirm if there were any oversights in the background check. You know, some artists, in order to sign with a company, tightly conceal the things they’ve done before, and when those things explode later on, it’s quite a headache for the PR department to deal with...

Signing you and Xu Mengjie, I naturally intend to cultivate you well. The purpose of the background check was informed to you yesterday. Since you chose to be truthful, I will definitely protect you completely!"

As Yan Yueqing spoke about these matters, her expression became very relaxed, as if no matter how big the issue was, it would seem insignificant once it passed through her hands?

Xi Hongxia’s eyes suddenly moistened, "President Yue... you’re really... different from others I’ve met before! To be honest, becoming an artist is my dream, but I haven’t signed with any company at my age for a reason..."

Seeing her open up, Yan Yueqing sat up straight, "Whatever you want to say, I’m willing to listen."

Xi Hongxia took a deep breath, "I’ve known since I was a child that I’m pretty, but being pretty has brought me not luck but misfortune..."

She seemed to recall something unpleasant, her delicate eyebrows slowly furrowing, evoking sympathy from others.

"I’ve always wanted to be a star... but because I’m pretty, every company that wanted to sign me had dirty hands without exception. Over time, I grew to equally despise every man, yet I had to find some support to fend off those who would conspire against me...

"So, I started frequenting high-end places, picking my targets in advance... I can’t deny that there was a utilitarian aspect to each relationship. He got my beauty, and I got his resources; it was quite fair...

"As for why each relationship only lasted a few months, that’s the rule in that circle. Being with someone for too long... that would really become being kept..."
