273 Unspoken Rules of the Industry (2/2)
A well-educated campus flower with a decent family upbringing… It was too tempting even for Young Lord Nie to pass up the opportunity.
”How on earth did Xiao Lu the loser get his hands on such a pretty little thing?” Young Lord Nie thought to himself. Meanwhile, he put on a warm and welcoming smile and introduced Zhou Qinya to his friends around him.
Zhou Qinya was suddenly flattered by all the attention given to her.
People standing beside Young Lord Nie were either bosses of large corporations or directors and investors of major movie production firms. Some of them even looked familiar to Zhou Qinya as she used to see these faces on TV. Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please clickfor visiting.
”Qinya, I have other matters to attend to, maybe we should continue the conversation tonight?” After a while, Nie Shunchen suddenly suggested.
Zhou Qinya's heart suddenly sank to the bottom.
She was a smart girl and knew what Nie Shunchen was alluding to. Even though she was eager to get ahead in life, she didn't want to do it by sacrificing her body. Let it be Brother Loong or the other boyfriends she had, she never allowed them to touch her on the bed. Growing up in a decent family, she understood the importance of virginity to a girl. It was one of her most precious assets and she wouldn't easily give it up.
Suddenly, the men around Nie Shunchen stopped talking and looked at her in silence, waiting for her decision. They no longer looked warm and welcoming, instead, there was lewd glints in their eyes.
Feeling helpless, Zhou Qinya looked to Lu Zhengyu for help.
To her dismay, the so-called heir of the Lu family avoided her gaze and pretended that it was none of his business. Zhou Qinya finally understood that Lu Zhengyu was not a rich heir, instead, he was a pimp for the rich and the powerful.
”I am sorry, Young Lord Nie. I came here with my friends, and I have to go home with them.” Zhou Qinya refused politely with a placating smile.
She wouldn't mind seeing Nie Shunchen and becoming his girlfriend. Nie Shunchen was the heir of the Hua Yi Entertainment, one of the most famous entertainment company in China. Therefore, if she was dating Nie Shunchen, she would have no trouble breaking into the entertainment industry. However, she would refuse to become an escort and to be used by anyone.
Zhou Qinya knew the art of playing hard to get. If she fell for Nie Shunchen's temptation too easily, he would quickly get bored with her and forget about her.
”Silly girl. Do you know how many girls are waiting in line to meet Young Lord Nie in private?” A middle-aged man put in.
He was called Boss Gu by the men around him and was an owner of an Entertainment company. One of the actors working for him got a break and became an A-list actor. However, his company was a far cry from the mighty Hua Yi Entertainment. Nonetheless, he was a reputable figure in the industry.
”Just so. Xiao Zhou, you need to latch on to opportunities when you see one.” Clad in a tight dress, Li Xinru wiggled her waist slightly and said.
Li Xinru knew Young Lord Nie's appetite for fresh meat and in order to please him, she, too, often sought out prey for him.
”Humph! College students like you are by the thousands. They will line up to be used by Young Lord Nie. This is the reality, girl. If you want fame, you will have to pay for it!”
Another reputable director said with a smirk.
Despite his obscenity, no one seemed to care.
The entertainment industry was a cesspool of moral degradation and corruption. The handsome actors and pretty actresses disguised as the bright and shining examples of society during the day, but at night, they conducted many sordid and unspeakable transactions. The entire industry was laced with hidden rules that outright trampled human decency.
Pressured by everyone around him, Zhou Qinya finally wavered
She knew that this might be her only chance of getting a foot into the industry. Maybe it would worth it to pay with her most precious prize. That being said, she still couldn't make up her mind.
Seeing Zhou Qinya's hesitation, Nie Shunchen laughed in his mind.
”She is definitely a virgin. She thinks she is so special because of her pretty face and decent upbringing.”
Nie Shunchen decided to press on and claim the prize. He cracked a smile and said: ”You said you came with your friends, where are they now?”
Zhou Qinya was taken aback by the question, so Lu Zhengyu hurried to answer for her.
”Young Lord Nie, Qinya's friends are over there.”
They looked toward the direction where Lu Zhengyu was pointing. To everyone's surprise, they saw Yun Qianqian was among her friends as well and was chatting with them. One of her arms even rested on the shoulder of a young man. Even Young Lord Nie and Yun Qianqian and never been so intimate before.
”They know Yun Qianqian?” Young Lord Nie in surprise.
Yun Qianqian and Li Xinru both work under Hua Yi Entertainment. They had very different styles both on stage and in real life. One was innocent and cute as a button, the other hot and seductive. He had been courting Yun Qianqian for many years but to no avail. Yun Qianqian was an A-list star, so he couldn't force her to do things that she didn't want.
The sight of Yun Qianqian and the young man's intimate interaction immediately angered Young Lord Nie.
