Chapter 377: No! Absolutely not!

Chapter 377: No! Absolutely not!

"What?" 'So those bastards really want to bring me down to the lowest point?' Chu Jingyi was about to explode. However, he knows he has to keep calm right now. 

"I'm sorry that I can't help you." The voice on the other side apologizes.  

"It's ok. Thanks for letting me know." If Chu Jingyi had learned about this later, he might have exploded. 

"But Jingyi. Maybe it's time for you to retire."

"Huh?!" Chu Jingyi doesn't expect an answer like that to come out. 

"You have already left your mark on the music industry. If you keep continuing on like this, it'll leave a stain on your career." Chu Jingyi is famous enough. However, Pandora's box was open with his comments before. 

It's only a matter of time before it becomes worse. 

"No, I won't be giving up." Chu Jingyi knows he still has room to grow. And he can't retire. Retiring would mean the board members and Lan Liqin could do whatever they wanted.

"Alright. Best of luck then." The guy on the other side doesn't say anything else and closes the call. 

'Let's keep calling.' Chu Jingyi isn't giving up and continues to call every contact he knows of. 

But the more Chu Jingyi contacted, the more he felt demoralized. All of the people had the same response for him. 

The determination Chu Jingyi had before was slowly dimming. But what made it worse was something that came out online. 

A scandal was posted about him. 

Chu Jingyi has seduced a married woman? There were multiple photos of Chu Jingyi with a woman. Each one shows an intimate relationship between him with the same woman.

To think Chu Jingyi has fallen so low. 

Shameful 

The comments came rushing in by the drove. 

'What?' Chu Jingyi was confused. Who would put out a scandal like this? He doesn't remember when he was doing these. More so, he doesn't even know who the woman is! 

Before he can post something about this, Silverlight posted a response to this!

Due to a conflict of interest, Chu Jingyi has been kicked out of Silverlight Entertainment. We give him our regards and hope he does well in his future endeavors. 

And that's the nail in the coffin. 

"Those bastards!" Chu Jingyi finally exploded. Give him their best regards, my ass. This move was adding more into the fire. More and more comments came flooding in, denouncing him. 

Chu Jingyi knows even if he says anything, the comments will shut him down. 

He knew this was the end of him.

...

In his apartment, Chu Jingyi was drinking. There was no flame in him any longer. It was rock bottom for him. 

There was nothing he could do now. What can he do? Everybody was shaming him, saying that he was a disgrace. Even the people he asked for help turned their back on him quickly. 

Chu Jingyi looks at his phone. However, he shakes his head, 

"I can't bother him." Chu Jingyi knows if he calls Tan Quan, he would be placed into this mess as well.  

As he was thinking about what to do, his phone rang, 

"...Who is it?" Chu Jingyi's voice was wary. There have been many people calling him after the news was posted. All of them denounced him every time.  

"Senior, did you not save my phone number? I'm hurt." Lu Chen laughs on the other side. 

Chu Jingyi makes a faint smile, "I have to be more careful now that people are after my head." He told Lu Chen the truth. He continues, 

"Junior, you shouldn't call me from now on. People might start to make weird rumors about you later." 

"Senior. Stop talking bad about yourself. I know the rumors are false." Lu Chen could tell somebody was trying to ruin him. The photos only show the two holding hands. 

However, it doesn't show Chu Jingyi's expression. They were photos showing only from the back view. 

With one person believing him, Chu Jingyi felt better, "Thank you for trusting me. But you should still be more careful. So why have you called me?"

"Senior, do you still remember what I said to you at the competition?"

"About what - No! Absolutely not!" Chu Jingyi quickly refuses. He almost forgot it. But when he remembers, he can't do it.
