Nian Junting knitted his eyebrows tightly. He didn’t know that people were spreading that kind of rumor. “Did he hara.s.s her? Does he think that he can do things to her because I’ve broken up with her? She’s gorgeous, after all,” he said.
“Um… not exactly. s.h.i.+ Xiang claimed that Luosang tried to seduce him.” Hearing that, Nian Junting burst out in laughter, as if he had just heard a joke. “That was the most hilarious joke that I’ve heard this year! She was in a relations.h.i.+p with me. How could she possibly take a liking to a c.r.a.ppy singer like that?”
Lu Kang really wanted to tell his boss that s.h.i.+ Xiang was pretty handsome, but to prevent Nian Junting from losing his temper, he nodded and responded, “That’s right. I guess there’s some other reason.”
“What reason could it be? I can tell for sure that s.h.i.+ Xiang tried to seduce her but failed, and then with both anger and shame, he smeared her.” Nian Junting ordered, “Contact Fanyu right now. My ex-girlfriend was wronged. They must give me an explanation, or they’ll be my, Nian Junting’s, enemy. That s.h.i.+ Xiang hara.s.sed my girlfriend. I won’t let him get away with it so easily.”
Lu Lang felt a little speechless. Ex-girlfriend? He thought, As her ex-boyfriend, you really mind a lot of her business. “Mr. Nian, I don’t think you have actual evidence of s.h.i.+ Xiang hara.s.sing Miss Xu, right?” Lu Kang asked. All this is just your conjecture, he continued in his head.
“Luosang’s beauty is the strongest proof,” Nian Junting answered without hesitation.
An Lan felt speechless. She finally understood what partiality really meant. Lu Kang smiled bitterly and said, “Mr. Nian, we’re gonna be late if we don’t board now. I’ll make arrangements back in Xia City, alright? It’s inconvenient for me to call them on the plane.”
“Alright.” Nian Junting heard the airport announcer call his name as well.
…
Two hours later, the plane landed in Xia City. Lu Kang switched on his phone, and the news about s.h.i.+ Xiang immediately popped out. He opened the news, spent a while reading it, and then said to Nian Junting, “Mr. Nian, I’m afraid you don’t need to talk to Fanyu anymore. Not long after we got on the plane, Fanyu announced on Weibo that s.h.i.+ Xiang is no longer the spokesman of their new game, and that they’ll rescind the contract with him unilaterally. The reason is that he was arrogant and late every day during the dubbing work. Because of him, the other dubbers had to work for a longer time.”
Nian Junting raised his eyebrows. “What happened? Did the owner of Fanyu realize that I care about Luosang? Is that the reason why they terminated the contract immediately?”
Lu Kang felt a little awkward about how his boss gave himself the credit. An Lan joined the conversation. “I don’t think it’s possible. Mr. Nian, you have no idea how many fans s.h.i.+ Xiang has. He has both female and male fans, and some of his female fans are rather crazy. Also, it’s the first time that he has endorsed a game. I guess Fanyu has put quite a lot of effort into it. They couldn’t possibly terminate the contract with s.h.i.+ Xiang without even giving you a phone call. Now, almost everyone in show business wants to work with him. I heard that someone even offered a hundred million for him to play a part in a film.”
Nian Junting sneered scornfully. “They offered a hundred million to a singer to play a part in a film? Are they out of their minds? Don’t they need any acting skills?”
Lu Kang sighed. “He’s popular and handsome, and he’s young. He has countless fans. Miss An is right. What Fanyu did was very risky. Now they have terminated their deal with s.h.i.+ Xiang, so who’s gonna be their new spokesperson? Currently, only a few stars can compete with him. Not to mention the fact that s.h.i.+ Xiang has already finished the advertising and the final makeup photo. By replacing him, Fanyu is going to take a serious loss. I thought that even if you called them yourself, we’d have to come up with some ideas to make them terminate their cooperation with s.h.i.+ Xiang.”
