Chapter 125: Where Do You Stand, Out of Everyone Who Hates Me?

Gu Pingsheng reminded Shen Yichen.

Logically, Vera should not have displayed her strong and competitive side so quickly, especially in front of the other two men who had come with her. However, she had already expressed her views and had even directly requested to manage Jiang Yuning. There could only be two explanations for this.

First of all, Vera could have done so because she wanted to prove her own ability. She knew that Jiang Yuning was a blacklisted actress and that if she could bring Jiang Yuning to fame, she would thus be able to prove her skills and ability in a very short timeframe .

The second explanation was that she probably had a personal grudge against Jiang Yuning and that she wanted to keep an eye on Jiang Yuning’s each and every move. The only way she would have been able to do that was by being Jiang Yuning’s exclusive agent.

“Boss, which option would you prefer it to be?”

“There is no point making an assumption right now. The only thing that we can do now is to sit back and watch what happens eventually,” Gu Pingsheng replied Shen Yichen. “Although I have already handed Yuning over to Vera, you still have to keep a lookout for Jiang Yuning to make sure that Vera does not go overboard. After all, you are still the director in charge of artiste management. Otherwise, how would I be able to explain myself to my nephew if he finds out that his girlfriend is being bullied?”

“No worries, boss. I will make sure that everything goes smoothly. I have a feeling that Vera is not as simple as she looks.”

“Then, let us just wait and see what happens.”

Gu Pingsheng had not expected that Vera would demand to manage Jiang Yuning as soon as she entered the company. He did not want to conclude so quickly on whether Vera was doing this to prove her working capability or if she was doing it because she had a hidden agenda. That was why he had decided on giving Vera a chance to prove herself.

“Furthermore, you cannot let Vera find out about Yuning’s relationship with Jingzhi, her relationship with you, and also how Ku Jie is related to her. It should all be kept a secret. If possible, do not let Vera find out about Yuning’s personal matters or even where she is staying right now. Since I do not know what her intention is, I do not trust Vera at this point and I want her to believe that Yuning is merely a blacklisted artiste who does not have anything,” Gu Pingsheng said cautiously.

“I understand, boss. I will sort out the relevant information before I give Yuning a call.”

Gu Pingsheng nodded his head and waved his hand, giving Shen Yichen permission to leave his office.

As for Vera, Gu Pingsheng wondered if his investigation on Vera was not thorough enough.

…

Jiang Yuning did not know that her agent had already been swapped. She was studying Chinese medicine from Grandpa Tan in his courtyard, and she was trying to get him to reveal some information regarding her father.

Grandpa Tan was already afraid that Jiang Yuning would ask him questions and he replied, “Yuning, please do not put me on the spot by asking me these questions. You can ask your father these questions when you meet him in future.”

Jiang Yuning sighed as she nodded her head. “Actually, I simply want to know why my father has refused to see me or give me any news about him in these past five years even though he is alive.”

“Who knows? I do not know how your father could be so heartless.”

After listening to Grandpa Tan’s reply, Jiang Yuning did not ask him any more questions but instead focused on studying Chinese medicine from him until she received a phone call from Shen Yichen.

“I was in a meeting when you called me earlier in the morning. Chairman Gu has just returned from abroad and he has brought three foreign agents back with him. One of them is called Vera and she has personally requested for you to be the artiste under her management. Chairman Gu has already agreed to her request and I have already handed all your working information over to Vera. She wants to meet you later to get to know you.”

Jiang Yuning frowned as she found it very difficult to process the sudden change. “Why is this happening all of a sudden?”

“This incident is indeed very sudden. She had seemed very prepared when she brought you up during the meeting. Therefore, Chairman Gu has decided to give her an opportunity to manage you so that we can determine her true intention during this period. You should be careful about what you tell her and how you act around her. Yuning, I can tell you for sure that she does not look like an easy person to handle.”

“Alright then. Just let her come. I am at Grandpa Tan’s house right now,” Jiang Yuning replied without complaining at all.

She had previously experienced this sort of situation numerous times when she was still with Emperor Entertainment.

Each time she was given a new agent, she would always be left out and played around with without being given any opportunities at all.

She would not let that happen again this time because she would not give anyone face anymore—not even if Vera was really an extremely competent agent from abroad.
