Chapter 159 - Director Song Personal Visit

"This can't be happening! Why do all good things keep on happening to that slut! Why did she do to deserve this!" Chen Ying was ramsaking around. 

"Chen Ying... Calm down first. I know this is unexpected but just... Let's first calm down and think first, okay? Ah..." Qin Chanpu was lost for words. Since Chen Yi was placed under him, he feared that repercussions would hit him too someday.

"Haha... Now I understand this. I understand everything. Why did the selection team have the sudden balls to show me no regard and take in that slut? They had bigger fish in their mouths. How abhorrent of them to keep it hidden till now. And that Gu Ciantao? I understand everything now... These two are in cahoots! No wonder something was amiss and that bitch could go around parading around so fearlessly, she had Gu Chiantao for her support! They are plotting together to bring me down!" Anger rushed up to her face, flushing it to deep red. The view was very unsightly.

QIn Chanpu had already long made those connections. "What will you do now?" He asked cautiously. "My case will be settled in the next hearing, perhaps I can help you come up with something." Thinking of her his attempts to encroach upon Chen Yi personal space ended up with him being subjugated and humiliated by a woman, hotness of shame barrelled into his heart. In his anger, he said. "That girl is not simple. Most likely she already suspects her, she is extremely cautious. I'll need your help in making her realize what she's worth!"

"No... I won't wait until then." Qin Chanpu had his own motives in his mind while Chen Ying was already at her limits. "I'm going to see Fu Jianguo, this is it. I can't allow her to process with this." Chen Ying had a feeling of crisis, if Chen Yi wasn't stopped now, it would be too late.

Donning over her coat, she made her way to the office.

"Miss Ying... ah, wait. CEO is at a meeting." The appointment lady stationed outside Fu Jianguo office rushed to Chen Ying side once Chen Ying attempted to enter.

"What do you mean... Are you a new hire? I can enter whenever I want, no one has ever stopped me."

The appointment lady realized this was going to be difficult. "This, Miss, actually these are CEO Fu words. The guests are very important. He specifically instructed to not let anyone disturb." The woman ducked down her head and in a meek whimper added. "Especially not Miss Chen Ying."

Chen Ying eyes darkened. She twisted the knob and walked in without any explanation.

...

"Director Song, why did you not let your people inform me you intended to come today? I kept you waiting for no reason." Fu Jianguo pulled the chair for Director Song, failing to keep his calm. At the sudden arrival of such an important figure from the industry, his mind had lost its fuse and he didn't know how to behave appropriately.

On the contrary, Director Song looked level headed and cool. "There's no need to concern CEO Fu, I'm here on a work-related visit."

After making certain Director Song was well and seated and asking for refreshment and being refused, Fu Jianguo finally made his way around and took his seat.

"But your sudden visit here..." He asked cautiously, a bubble of excitement evident. Work-related visit? Did that mean he intended to hire an artiste from under his wing for a big production?

Because Fu Jianguo knew Director Song. Usually, the people on his level won't mingle with the likes of his agency. 

A hint of scoff fitted across Director Song eyes, unnoticed by Fu Jianguo at first. "It seems CEO Fu doesn't like to keep updated on the happenings in his company."

Fu Jianguo would be a fool if he didn't feel the subtle sarcasm this time. Almost immediately, he went on explaining. "No, no. no It's not like this. Just recently my sister had been gravely ill, she had to be catered to in the ICU. I was held up by family matters." Despite a more than passable excuse, Direction Song air of 'disagreement' dissipated only somewhat. "But for Director Song to say so, have you contacted someone from Fu entertainment?"

"I have already signed a remarkable girl from under a Manager in your company. I don't recall his name but his surname is something with Q... Yes, Qin. It's Manager Qin."

Signed already? Fu Jianguo was shocked and excited. 

"With surname Qin, I think there's only one. Qin Chanpu?" Fu Jianguo thought hard and recalled that the only remarking budding seemed to be Su Xiuying who was placed under him. But she had long been picked up and put under Shen Yue. Then there was this girl named Zhao Hua... But she wasn't on the level to attract someone like Director Song for a big production. "Director Song, you are right. That Qin Chanpu had always been too arrogant. He didn't inform me. Today, I shall discipline him before you."

"There's no need," Director Song waved his hand and was about to say something when the door opened and someone walked in.

Fu Jianguo face changed colour.

"Fu Jianguo, there was something I needed to... oh." Chen Ying approached and recoiled finding someone else in Fu Jianguo presence.

"There was someone inside, how came that receptionist did not tell me?" Chen Ying looked back when she said this. Then looking back at them, her eyes settled over Director Song, a glint of recognition lit her eyes. "Is this... really Director Song?"

"En... Chen Ying, this is perhaps not the right time."

"I've been a huge fan all this time." Chen Ying ignored Fu Jianguo in excitement. In quick steps, she approached them. With a look of worship, she said. "Is this really Director Song, I can't really believe my eyes."

Director Song was used to such looks of mindless admiration by young artistes. Most of them had benefits in their mind instead of sincere admiration. If a production under him failed, they would be the first one to sneer and laugh at him.

But who knew what he thought as Director Song returned Chen Ying smile and accepted her greeting. "I have also heard a word or two about you." He gestured with his hand. "Please, be seated. We can chat slowly." After all, what he came for involved her too.

And Chen Ying had been kind enough to deliver herself to the altar.
