The Bully President and the Serious Wife

Xie Zhenting raised the corners of his mouth.

Qu Jing smiled and said, "I think you misunderstood our intentions. The only purpose of Xie Family Financial Group investing this money is to get Miss Xu in. We don't care about the box office. We care that your team is not taking our request seriously. If this is your attitude, we will withdraw our financial support."

Qu Jing's words perfectly summarize Xie Zhenting's thoughts.

It simply translates to, "Money is not an issue for me, and you are not the only film production team. If you don't promote Xu Lu, I will take my money elsewhere. With my money, I can make deals with anyone."

These words worried the producers. Indeed, their team didn't like Xu Lu - they felt she was a minor actress who relied on sponsors to get roles.

However, no matter what they thought of her, they didn't want to lose the Xie Group's investment so quickly.

The producer quickly said, “Yes. This was our mistake. We did not think our decision through. Rest assured, Ms. Xu will be the focus at the first press conference.”

Xie Zhenting smiled inwardly. If the production team had obeyed his wishes, there would have been no need to continue this meeting.

Xie Zhenting gestured for their glasses to be filled. “Excellent. Cheers to the film’s debut.”

The producer and director felt their hearts sink. Even though they had agreed, they still had to drink.

They raised their glasses. "Thank you, President Xie!"

Xie Zhenting deliberately didn't drink a single sip so that he could stay awake. It was obvious that he was now taking revenge.

The director said, "Speaking of the film, we are facing a problem. To avoid future troubles, we hope to obtain the services of a foreign team. But we have not been able to reach an agreement. Perhaps President Xie can help us."

The director hesitated when he raised the issue. Although he did not explain the reason, everyone knew that the deal fell through due to financial problems.

"A problem? Any problem that can be solved with money is not a problem for me.

These words aroused a collective urge to beat Xie Zhenting.

If you are so rich, just burn your money.

It's true - rich people flaunt their money.

The director happily replied: "Thank you..."

Xie Zhenting interrupted. "Don't thank me yet. Although money is not a problem, my investment is precious. Stop trying to play tricks on me. Don't try to take advantage of me."

Xie Zhenting issued a warning.

After he finished speaking, a thought came to his mind. Was he blinded by Xu Lu?

"You spend so much money and don't ask for anything in return. That's not how you do business. If you continue like this, the Xie family's vast wealth will be depleted."

However, he still couldn't help but spend his family fortune on Xu Lu.

“Don’t worry, we won’t,” the producer assured.

After a few rounds of drinks, the production team fully realized their mistake.

Originally, they guessed that Xu Lu was just a sponsored sugar baby, and never thought that the young master of the Xie family would interfere.

The team had originally planned to have Xu Lu suffer a little during filming, but now all those ideas are gone.

There's no choice. Beggars can't be choosers.

Xie Zhenting's attitude from beginning to end was: "I have money. If you have the courage to challenge me, I will bury you with my money. Can you deal with me? Don't be blind. "

The entertainment industry may seem lucrative, but it's not for Nicholas Tse.

In fact, they know how difficult it is to not have a reliable financial investor.

Xie Zhenting got his answer and was satisfied with the group of drunkards, so he asked someone to take them away.

Now that the matter has been resolved, Xie Zhenting feels much better.

The atmosphere in the private room had calmed down. Qu Jing smiled.

"Boss, can I leave work now?"

"Let's go." He said after straightening his tie.

Qu Jing stopped at the door and asked, "Boss, I heard that the coins on your desk were tips from Miss Xu. Is that true? Maybe we paid too much in this deal?"

An empty glass flew across the sky and shattered.

Qu Jing had anticipated the fierce reaction and avoided it in advance.

“Brother, it’s not just a financial loss, it’s a waste of your time. Is it worth it?” Qu Jing shouted from outside the house.

Xie Zhenting shouted: "I am very satisfied with my decision. Get out!"

Qu Jing shouted, “I learned this from Jiang Lin! She chatted with me. You might want to talk to her.”

At home, Jiang Lin sneezed loudly.

After Qu Jing left, Xie Zhenting sat in the private room for a while.

Life had never felt so dull. He found himself battling boredom and loneliness during the sleepless nights that plagued him.

Xie Zhenting's fingers unconsciously fiddled with the coins in his pocket.

The phrase “bury you with money” is often thrown around by rich people, yet a poor bastard like Xu Lu has the nerve to throw a tip at him.

What does she have to prove? Is there anything she can be proud of?

She threw money at him twice. The first time, it was just one coin. The second time, she threw three coins—even for a tip, she was stingy.

Xie Zhenting left the other coins in the office. Without a second thought, he kept one with him.

Those four coins were all he got after investing tens of millions of yuan.

Qu Jing's words reappeared in Xie Zhenting's mind. You lose money financially and it's a waste of your time. Is it worth it?

He knew he was going to lose.

How stupid is he to make such an unwise investment?

He thought for an hour about how he could salvage the situation.

How could he reverse this trend and recoup his investment?

His eyes suddenly lit up as a bright idea struck him. He had a plan.

A plan that works in his favor.

Currently, the two hottest topics on Weibo are Xu Qixi's scandal and Jin Xuechuan's rumors.

It's clear that Xu Qixi's agency paid some money to buy reviews. There are posts all over the internet saying Xu Qixi was a victim. She was drugged and the culprit was another actor.

Although no name was released, the descriptions clearly pointed to Xu Lu to anyone who knew her.

However, these comments failed to spark more discussion because whenever die-hard fans started discussing conspiracy theories on Beijing's Weibo microblog, the police swooped in and nipped the rumors in the bud.

They will reiterate that Xu Qixi was not drugged because no traces of drugs were found in her blood, and that she most likely planned the whole thing.

These responses regarding Xu Qixi and his agency only further tarnish their image - it's like a slap in the face.

Since that photo was posted, Jin Xuechuan has posted a photo at a fixed time every day, and each photo shows a silhouette of a woman.

While the photos don't capture the woman's face, it's clear she's the same person.

This explains why rumors about Jin Xuechuan's new affair are spreading like wildfire.

During a break in filming, she opened Weibo and browsed the colorful comments.

Xu Lu couldn't help but smile. The post was just a promotional photo for a music video without any title.

Also, this is her personal photo so how did fans connect it to a relationship?

She sifted through Jin Xuechuan's previous posts. There were few images. If there were, they were usually landscapes or his pet dog.

It is indeed unusual for a woman to suddenly appear on Weibo.

Xu Lu glanced sideways. Was this Jin Xuechuan's way of increasing her popularity?

She hadn't asked for this favor, but he did it anyway.

Should she thank him for that?

The start of Kim Hak-cheon's promotional activities will mean the public exposure of her face and name!

Xu Lu never changed her name or face. What happened in the past is no secret.

Once she was in the public eye, those past events would be dug up sooner or later. She needed to be prepared.

Now it's time to go back to Xu's house.
