After the divorce, I became a rich girl

Seeing Liu Chengye's refusal, Li Yan's eyes turned sinister and he stared at him, "Are you planning to sit and wait for death, or are you going to struggle and maybe have a chance to survive?"

Liu Chengye fell into a tangled silence and did not respond to Li Yan immediately.

Li Yan looked at Liu Chengye who was weighing the pros and cons, and persuaded him in a low voice: "Boss Liu, as long as we can survive this, Xingguang Entertainment will be able to recover a large sum of funds. With the money, are you still worried about not being able to train artists?"

"Sacrificing one or two artists now will definitely bring more rewards in the future."

Li Yan's words were like magic sounds that poured into Liu Chengye's ears, but he no longer believed in the beautiful vision that Li Yan described, and evaded the question, "Boss Li, please let me think about it again."

Li Yan knew that he couldn't push Liu Chengye too hard, so he slowed down his tone and said, "Okay, you think about it carefully. But you have to give me an answer as soon as possible. After all, given the current public opinion situation, taking action one minute later may have a very different effect."

Liu Chengye left the ward, walked out of the hospital, and sat in the car. In his heart, he didn't want to follow Li Yan's suggestion.

Because judging from the current situation, no matter how much public relations is done, the Qingping Township Tea project has already failed, and its commercial value has been greatly reduced. Sacrificing his company's two top artists for such a promising project is really not worth it.

However, he could not completely ignore what Li Yan had entrusted to him. Otherwise, once Li Yan completely abandoned him and terminated his cooperation with him, he would be helpless because he did not have anything in his hands that could check and balance Li Yan.

Thinking of this, Liu Chengye looked at the driver who was driving and asked, "How is the progress of the person I asked you to find before? Have you found him?"

The driver, who was concentrating on driving, was stunned when he heard Liu Chengye's question, but then he quickly understood what Liu Chengye was asking and responded quickly: "Mr. Liu, I found someone who claims to be Li Jiawei's cousin, Li Qingyue."

"Cousin?" Liu Chengye looked puzzled. "Besides Li Jiawei, I've never heard of another daughter in the Li family."

The driver quickly explained: "They are relatives from Li Jiawei's adoptive parents' side."

Liu Chengye narrowed his eyes when he heard the driver say this and said, "What exactly happened? Tell me in detail."

Afterwards, the driver told Liu Chengye everything about Li Qingyue.

When Li Qingyue came to Xishi from her hometown, she originally planned to contact Li Huaiying. However, Li Huaiying's previous phone number had long been out of use, and she did not have his new contact information, so she had to give up the idea.

So, after arriving in Xishi, she first found a hotel to settle down. The next morning, she found the address of Universal Studios through the navigation and took a taxi directly there.

But when she arrived at Universal Pictures, since she was neither an employee nor an artist of the company and had not made an appointment in advance, even if she told the front desk staff that she was Li Jiawei's cousin, the front desk would never let her in.

After all, as a film and television company, Universal Pictures has many directors and artists coming here every day, and ensuring safety is the top priority.

After all, some fans nowadays are very crazy and some even sneak into the company to chase their idols.

Li Qingyue was unable to enter the company and meet Li Jiawei, so she was naturally unwilling to accept it. So she waited outside the Universal Pictures office building for a few days, hoping to run into Li Jiawei.

Unfortunately, she was unlucky. Li Jiawei had other work arrangements during those days and did not come to Universal Pictures.

When Li Qingyue came to Xishi, she didn't have much money with her. Her monthly salary was not enough for her to spend, and after working for several years, she had not saved any money at all.

If she kept waiting like this, she would soon not be able to afford even the hotel bill.

But Li Qingyue was unwilling to go back with nothing. She had no choice but to decide to find a job to make a living. As for her original plan, she could only wait until she found a chance to meet Li Jiawei before making a long-term plan.

Li Qingyue was not looking for a job blindly, she also had some brains.

So before looking for a job, she carefully searched online for job information related to Universal Pictures. She thought that if she could find such a job, the possibility of meeting Li Jiawei might be greater.

Just then, she saw that the flagship store of Huai'an Fragrant Tea was recruiting staff.

Fortunately, Li Qingyue has a good appearance. It has to be said that in this society, people with outstanding appearance are often more likely to get opportunities.

At that time, the several stores opened by Huai'an Xiangcha in Xishi were still in the promotion period, and the appearance of the store staff was quite high. After all, from the perspective of publicity, good-looking store staff are more likely to attract customers' attention.

Li Qingyue's previous job was as a cashier in a supermarket, so this time she applied for a position at the Huaian Fragrant Tea flagship store, also as a cashier.

With work experience and good looks, Li Qingyue was hired smoothly.

However, Li Qingyue is not someone who can work quietly. She has always been lazy and has high expectations but poor skills.

When she was a cashier in a supermarket, she often slacked off and worked half-heartedly, relying on the care of the supermarket boss.

It is simply unrealistic to ask her to work seriously for eight hours continuously every day.

Li Qingyue originally thought that the store manager would definitely take extra care of her because of her beauty. But she overlooked that everyone who could work in this store was handsome and beautiful.

Compared to ordinary people, Li Qingyue is indeed beautiful, but among a group of handsome men and beautiful women, her looks can only be considered average and not particularly outstanding.

Li Qingyue did her work perfunctorily. At the end of the month, most of her salary was deducted, leaving her with little, which was barely enough to pay the rent.

Fortunately, the store provided two meals, otherwise she would have given up long ago.

She mentioned to the store manager that she was Li Jiawei's cousin, and even took out a childhood photo of her and Li Jiawei as evidence.

But she still clearly remembers that after the store manager looked at the photo, the look in his eyes was full of contempt and disdain.

After coming to Xishi, Li Qingyue has not been able to see Li Jiawei. Coupled with this experience, Li Qingyue can't help but feel resentful towards Li Jiawei.

She thought that if Li Jiawei was willing to see her, there would be no need for her to suffer here!

However, if the store manager knew that Li Qingyue had such thoughts, he would definitely cry out that it was unfair.

At that time, when Li Qingyue showed the photos to the store manager, the manager was really surprised.

The reason was that the photo Li Qingyue showed him was not a separate photo of her and Mr. Li, but a group photo of more than 30 people.

The photo looked like it was taken about twenty years ago and the pixels were extremely low.

Among a group of people, Li Qingyue pointed at a little girl with two ponytails and said that was "her". She then pointed to the person standing at the very edge, whose forehead was covered by thick bangs and whose face was almost invisible, and told him that was Mr. Li.
