The Bully President and the Serious Wife
Chapter 79 Sold her for 1 dollar
He looks decent and noble on the surface, why is he so shameless?
He didn't feel guilty at all and was even proud of his shamelessness.
Miss Mei suppressed her anger, raised her head and asked, "President Xie, your target is Xu Lu, right?"
Xie Zhenting replied: "Yes."
He stared straight at Miss Mei, not avoiding her gaze.
On the contrary, he took his shamelessness to the maximum and suppressed Miss Mei so that she could not raise her head.
Xie Zhenting said to her: "I am acting behind your actress. Do you think you can do something?"
Miss Mei felt a pain in her chest. "President Xie, aren't you worried that Xu Lu will be angry with you if she finds out?"
Xie Zhenting’s response almost made Miss Mei vomit blood, because he told her: “What does her anger have to do with me?”
By then he was already her boss. What else could she do?
In any case, Xie Zhenting's method is simple and crude.
Grant was still in the dark, and he wanted to make sure he reached a 'devil's contract' with Xu Lu, so that her freedom would be in his hands. Things would be much easier then.
His many years of experience in the business world told him which method was the fastest, most convenient and most effective.
It is best to take drastic measures before everyone reacts.
When the situation develops, everything will become a foregone conclusion.
Xu Lu might have made a fuss, but the most she could do was get angry.
Miss Mei clenched her jaw. "What a great strategy, thank you, President."
Jiang Lin placed the contract in front of her. "Take a look at the contract, Miss Mei. If you have no objection, please sign it."
Miss Mei read the contract carefully. The terms were clear and she would benefit from it.
He wanted ownership, but he wouldn't be involved in any of the operations. His percentage of interest was symbolic, as he only wanted 3%. Beyond that, he offered them unlimited funding and support.
The benefits to the studio alone were like a piece of delicious red roast meat dangling before her to stimulate her appetite.
It didn't matter whether Miss Mei signed the agreement or not, because he would get everything no matter what.
With a heavy heart, Miss Mei said, "Xu Lu and I are more than just actor and agent. We are friends. If I sign this contract, it would be the same as selling Xu Lu to you, wouldn't it?"
Jiang Lin replied immediately. “Of course not. With the support of the Xie family, we can come up with a better plan for Miss Lulu. We can handle any trouble that may arise. All you need to do is continue with your plan and help Xu Lu reach greater heights.”
Jiang Lin was nervous. She tried her best to show Xie Zhenting his best side. Her only hope was that she would not be kicked out and punished.
Miss Mei has high hopes for Xu Lu. She knows that Xu Lu is ambitious, but she also knows better than anyone that ambition is not enough in the muddy world of the entertainment industry.
Xu Lu had just started her career when a large-scale, pre-planned campaign of slander against her was launched online.
Hidden hands are ready to throw stones at her, and she doesn't know what else she will have to face in the future.
Without strong supporters, trying to reach the top is a difficult task. In the days ahead, it will be doubly difficult for them.
Although Miss Mei is a very experienced agent who knows how to best shape Xu Lu, what she lacks is a strong supporter.
Xie Zhenting gave them a leg, and it was a pretty strong leg!
Miss Mei looked at the document and found it difficult to control her emotions.
She gritted her teeth and stared straight at Xie Zhenting's handsome yet unrecognizable face.
“If I sign this, I hope… you won’t be too harsh on her.”
Xie Zhenting said calmly: "Of course I won't be harsh on her."
Xu Lu belonged to Xie Zhenting anyway. If he really wanted to be harsh with her, he would have done so long ago.
Jiang Lin walked over and handed her a pen. “Miss Mei, please sign this contract so that Miss Lulu can get enough financial support. In the future, no one dares to snatch Miss Lulu’s role, and nothing can stop her development in the entertainment industry.”
Jiang Lin’s words made Miss Mei feel sour. No one dared to snatch Miss Lulu’s role.
They have just returned to China for two months, but in such a short time, there has never been a moment of peace. All the roles played by Xu Lu are hard-won.
Xu Lu spent too much energy on that. In order to get those roles, she had to go through endless conspiracies.
Miss Mei recalled that she wanted to stand on the high ground and trample on those who looked down on them in the past.
This was the dream shared by Miss Mei and Xu Lu. Little by little, Miss Mei's tightly clenched fists began to relax.
Jiang Lin watched Miss Mei pick up the pen and finally sign her name on it. She breathed a sigh of relief.
Thank God she finally signed.
After signing the contract, Jiang Lin immediately took it back and handed her the blank check. "This is a sincere gesture from our president. Fill it out however you want!"
She looked at the blank check, her expression complicated. After a mental struggle, she finally picked up a pen and quickly wrote a series of numbers. She handed it to Xie Zhenting.
Miss Mei said sternly: “I hope you can do what you said. First, I signed this contract because I was coerced. Second, it was because I wanted a better environment. No matter what you say, I signed this contract and let her down. I can’t accept your money.”
Xie Zhenting looked at the check and saw "1".
Miss Mei wrote down a number—she only wanted one dollar.
She stood up and bowed to Xie Zhenting.
"Xu Lu is not someone you can push around. If you're really serious about her, I hope you won't hurt her. No matter how things develop, I hope there won't be any hard feelings if you break up. Goodbye."
Xie Zhenting's face suddenly turned gloomy. "A painless way to break up?
"I'm not even with her yet and you're already talking about breaking up?"
Her words imply that she doesn't think well of them and she is sure they won't be together.
The next second, Xie Zhenting suddenly laughed. If he himself didn't think carefully about the final result, then no one else would consider it either.
After leaving the building, Miss Mei got into her car.
She screamed, falling against the steering wheel and hitting her chest several times.
“I have never been so brave in my life! Xu Lu,… you must control this madman. Otherwise, we will suffer heavy losses.”
...
Xie Zhenting looked at the one-yuan check. “She seems to be spending too much time with Xu Lu. Put it away.”
Jiang Lin held the check and asked, "How about one yuan?"
Xie Zhenting stood up. "Give it to her."
"Xu Lu's agent saved me a lot of money that I would have used to deal with her."
He didn't care how much Miss Mei filled in. His goal was accomplished anyway, because Xu Lu was an actress of the Xie family company.
To be more precise, she belongs to Xie Zhenting.
Jiang Lin's lips twitched. "How much more extreme can you get?"
One yuan. Why did the people around Xu Lu send someone away for just one yuan?
Xie Zhenting walked and said, "You must keep an eye on Xu Piaopiao."
Xu Piaopiao is a disgusting woman who pretends to be pure, gentle, and kind, but no one knows how she will retaliate against Xu Lu.
Jiang Lin replied: "Okay!"
She hesitated for a moment, then asked, "President, how are you going to respond to him, Grant?"
Xie Zhenting paused. "Keep dragging."
Jiang Lin couldn't help but say, "But soon... he will know."
He wasn't worried about that possibility at all. "Then let him know."
Sometimes, when the situation demands, it's okay to betray a brother.
Xie Zhenting had no other worries. After all, Xu Lu was already in his hands. It was a race against time for him and Grant.
Jiang Lin was stunned.
As they walked, Xie Zhenting stopped again.
"Boss, what's wrong?"
Xie Zhenting pulled a long face. "Is there a clause in the contract that prohibits Xu Lu from having sex scandals?"
Jiang Lin shook her head. "I don't think...it was mentioned."
“Add this clause to the contract. I don’t want to hear about Jin Xuechuan’s sex scandal anymore.”
Jiang Lin said, "But the contract has already been signed. It's not good to secretly modify the terms..."
Xie Zhenting stared at him coldly. "What if I insist?"
Jiang Lin succumbed to the pressure. "Okay, I'll find a way."
