Every time the prince opens his eyes, he sees

Afraid that Chi Yu would think too much, she still didn't mention it. When he asked if Xie Nicholas Tse still harassed her, she only dared to say that it had been less frequent recently.

Chi Yu is going to shoot the cover of a famous foreign magazine and will be away for a week.

After he finished speaking to He Yaoyao, he looked reluctant and said, "Yaoyao, why don't you come with me? I will miss you madly if you are away for so long. We haven't been apart for such a long time."

"No, I'm busy negotiating a big project with an artist right now, so I really can't spare the time. Be good, and be back soon."

He Yaoyao gently stroked Chi Yu's face, her eyes full of reluctance and tenderness.

She knew how important this opportunity was to Chiyu. It was not only a leap in his career, but also a stage for him to showcase his talents to the world.

She couldn't become a stumbling block to him, even though she didn't want to be separated for so long.

"Chi Yu, go with peace of mind. I will wait for you at home. Remember to video call me every day to let me know that everything is going well with you." There was a hint of sob in He Yaoyao's voice, but she tried to make her smile look brighter, hoping to give Chi Yu some comfort and strength.

Chi Yu held her hand tightly, as if to imprint her warmth in his heart, "Yaoyao, when I come back, I will bring you a gift."

After seeing Chi Yu off, He Yaoyao returned to work and became even busier.

Fortunately, the hard work paid off. The project that I had been working on for so long was finally successfully signed with the artists today.

After sending the artist to the RV and letting her go back, I prepared to catch a ride home. While going to the restroom, I suddenly heard someone whispering, "Zhai Wen is just a second-tier artist. He only got a piece of the pie in Phoenix, not because of backstage connections. I didn't expect his agent, who doesn't look very impressive, to have such strong connections. He actually made the director decide to cast Zhai Wen as the male lead in Phoenix with just one phone call."

He Yaoyao paused.

What do they mean?

Wasn’t it all thanks to his explosive acting skills that Zhai Wen was able to audition for the male lead in The Phoenix?

How could it be because of a backdoor?

Zhai Wen didn't have many connections. He was a newcomer and his family background was average, so she had even less background.

But how could there be such a good thing as a trap falling from the sky?

Thinking of the director and producer's meaningful looks and the expressions that said everything when they signed the contract, she believed it.

They were attracted by Zhai Wen's acting skills. There are so many handsome young men with good acting skills in this entertainment industry, but why did they choose Zhai Wen?

Could it be that Nicholas Tse is behind the scenes again?

He Yaoyao went directly to the producer.

When the producer saw He Yaoyao, he was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Boss He, is there something you want to talk to me about?"

He Yaoyao took a deep breath and tried to sound calm. "Regarding Zhai Wen becoming the male lead of Feng Qiu Huang, I want to know the reason behind it."

The producer was surprised and asked, “You don’t know?”

"Please tell me the truth." He Yaoyao's attitude was still relatively good.

"This..." The producer hesitated whether to say it.

He Yaoyao bluntly dispelled his concerns, "Don't worry, even if Xie Tingxuan knew that you told me the inside story, he wouldn't blame you."

Hearing her mention Nicholas Tse in such a casual manner, he understood that it seemed that the relationship between the two was indeed unusual.

"Mr. He, you are a smart person and should understand the rules of this circle. Some things are not as simple as they seem."

He Yaoyao's heart sank. She had guessed correctly. All of this was a shady operation behind the scenes. "So, you really listened to Xie Tingxuan's arrangements and chose Zhai Wen as the male lead?"

The producer smiled slightly and didn't deny it. "Otherwise, with his current fame and status, how could he possibly get a piece of the pie of Fengqiuhuang?"

He Yaoyao felt angry and powerless. She thought her efforts were rewarded.

Today's incident proved that she was a joke.

But the contract has already been signed, so she can't let Zhai Wen stop performing, otherwise she will have to pay a sky-high penalty for breach of contract.

He Yaoyao was furious and immediately called Xie Tingxuan, "Xie Tingxuan, what do you want to do? Can't you just let me go and stop intruding into my life so intrusively?"

On the other end of the line, Xie Nicholas Tse's voice was a touch playful. "Oh? He Yaoyao, you figured it out so quickly. I just wanted to help you so your artist, Zhai Wen, can have a better future. Isn't that what you've always hoped for as his manager?"

"No need!" He Yaoyao practically yelled, "I can secure an opportunity for Zhai Wen through my own efforts. I don't need your despicable tactics to interfere! You'll only make me hate you even more!"

Xie Tingxuan chuckled, his tone filled with undeniable contempt, and he said domineeringly, "Are you sure? Maybe it doesn't matter to you. Even if an agent does his best, he's still an agent. But Zhai Wen, are you sure he's willing to climb the ladder step by step? There's a chance to reach the top overnight, why wouldn't he want it?"

"Besides, you and Zhai Wen are already on this boat. If you want him to stop performing or breach the contract, the exorbitant compensation for breach of contract is not something a newcomer like him can afford."

After hanging up the phone, He Yaoyao felt unprecedented frustration and anger.

She understood that Xie Tingxuan's words, though harsh, were also true. In this industry, sometimes individual efforts were far less powerful than the power behind them.

But she was unwilling to accept that her life and career, as well as those of those around her, would be controlled by such a person.

After returning home, He Yaoyao sat alone on the sofa, looking at the bustling night scene outside the window, feeling mixed emotions.

She was thinking about how to protect Zhai Wen's future and get rid of Xie Nicholas Tse's shadow.

Suddenly, she thought of Chi Yu.

Chi Yu has been in the entertainment industry for so long, he should know a lot of bigwigs, maybe he has a way.

He Yaoyao decided to call Chi Yu, tell him everything and hear his thoughts.

When the call was connected, Chi Yu's voice was a little tired but full of concern, "Yaoyao, what's wrong? Do you miss me?"

He Yaoyao's nose felt sore and she tried hard to hold back her tears. "I'm fine, I just missed you."

"Then I'll come back as soon as possible."

"it is good."

He Yaoyao finally didn't tell Chi Yu about this matter, as it would distract him and he was now busy with his own things.

Doesn’t Tingxuan Xie think that he can do anything?

Well, she would see how powerful he was.

The next day, she went to the company and asked the HR department to interview someone.

Given that He Yaoyao has a good ability to create stars and all the artists who have worked with her have become famous, the company is very supportive.

After two weeks of auditions, twenty outstanding candidates were selected.

The boss, Li Wei, came down and looked at the men and women standing in two rows. He clicked his tongue and said, "Isn't that too much? Can you bring all this?"

"This is not something you should consider, boss. It's about my ability to bear it."
