n105 It’s not Like I Can’t Afford it

nGong You’s hand paused as his sharp gaze swept across Gong Hao.

n“What do you mean by that?”

nGong Hao didn’t say anything else and only took back the signed project book before looking at him.

nHe had said everything he needed to say. He would not interfere with what Gong You wanted to do.

nGong Hao turned around and left. Gong You stood on the spot and stared at him coldly. After a long time, he snorted.

nHe could tell that Gong Hao was anxious. But he had mistakenly thought that the shareholders probably divided his power because of Gong Hao.

nHe had also not forgotten about Xu Rou’s matter!

nGong Hao was right. He had to be careful of the people around him. The only person in the Gong family he trusted was Gong Cheng.

nAfter returning to the Gong family’s old residence, Gong You placed a contract in front of Gong Cheng.

nGong Cheng took it and saw the word “Gift”. He forcefully suppressed the ecstasy in his heart and his face was filled with hesitation and resistance.

n“Father, these are shares in your name. Why are you giving them to me?”

n“Sign it.”

nGong You was very satisfied with his reaction and forced his hand to let him sign.

nHe was being filial.

nHowever, Gong You didn’t see the flames burning in Gong Cheng’s eyes.

nAfter signing the contract, Gong You asked Xu Rou to send some fruits to Gong Cheng. She obediently did so and hugged Gong You as soon as she came out.

n“I want to go out and make money. I want to be your helper, okay?”

nGong You’s eyes darkened. He patted her butt and said in an ambiguous tone, “Then should I send you to be an artist?”

n“Sure!”

nXu Rou agreed happily. “With fame, I can even endorse your company.”

nGong You did not speak, and a cold smile appeared on his lips.

nThe next day, Xu Rou was sent to White Bird Entertainment, which was Fu Xi’s entertainment company.

nWith Gong You’s name opening the way, she easily obtained the company’s contract and became an artist supported by White Bird Entertainment.

nAfter learning that Xu Rou had signed the contract, Fu Xi rushed to the company immediately.

n“Where is she?”

nThe assistant handed her the contract and said softly, “Company One set. We’re about to shoot her. We’re planning to promote this.”

n“Show me.”

nFu Xi’s tone was direct. The assistant lowered her head respectfully and brought her over.

nAs they walked, the assistant explained the situation to Fu Xi.

nAfter the company signed the contract with Xu Rou, they first arranged a period drama for her. This was the company’s main drama, and the publicity was done well.

nXu Rou had taken the role of the second female lead. As long as she filmed it well, she would have a good exposure.

nFu Xi’s expression was indifferent and she did not reply. When she arrived at the set, she saw Xu Rou throw out a headdress with a look of disdain.

n“What is this? It’s dirty and smelly. I’m not wearing it! Where’s the water? I’m so thirsty. Why is it so slow to put on makeup? How long do I have to wait?”

nThe verdant headdress rolled a few times on the ground, then shattered completely with a crisp crack.

nThe costume designer from the production team couldn’t help but wail, “Madam, that’s a headdress from the Qing Palace. It’s an old item. Why did you drop it just like that?”

nXu Rou rolled her eyes. “So what? It’s not like I can’t afford it.”

nHearing this, Fu Xi couldn’t help but walk over.

n“This is a company. If you don’t want to film properly, I’ll get someone to send you back to the Gong family.”

nHer eyes were cold and indifferent. When Xu Rou saw her, her aura decreased.

nJust like Gong Hao, her words wouldn’t change easily. Without Gong You around, she didn’t have the right to argue with her.

nAt the thought of this, Xu Rou softened.

n“I’ll shoot.”
