Chapter 366 - Brother Nan, I Will Accompany You (1/2)
At this time, the reporter continued questioning the couple, “Aren’t you afraid that they would bribe the police again this time?”
The couple then took turns to reply, one after the other. “We are in the age of technology nowadays. Everything can be easily searched and referred to on the Internet. We believe in justice and we believe that the law will give us the justice that we deserve! As for Xiao Chennan, we feel that this kind of garbage should not be allowed to exist in this world! We sincerely hope that he will get the punishment he deserves.”
Don’t you have a guilty conscience at all?
Even though the matter continued to spread like wild fire over the Internet and even though the matter was escalating really quickly, Xiao Chennan’s agency did not come out to deal with public relations matters at all. It seemed as though they had given up on Xiao Chennan and they wanted to teach him a lesson.
This was because the agency believed that as long as they cut off Xiao Chennan’s resources, he would definitely turn around and come back to beg them for mercy…
He might even agree to become the vice chairman’s pet.
Therefore, the vice chairman decided to make a second phone call to Xiao Chennan in private. This time, Xiao Chennan took Qing Yan’s advice and he put the phone on speaker mode as soon as he answered the call. After that, he quickly turned on the recording function on the cell phone.
“Chennan, did you put any thought into what I told you the other night? Things are already becoming more and more complicated and unpredictable now. If you continue to act like a tough guy and allow the situation to develop any further, then not even the agency would be able to save you from the predicament you are in when things really get out of hand.”
“It’s okay. I don’t need the agency’s help,” Xiao Chennan was indifferent and he refused the vice chairman’s offer.
“Xiao Chennan! Do you really think that you are still the high-profile film emperor that you used to be? The agency has been the one to help you achieve everything that you have, and that is how you have become who you are today! As long as you promise me that you will break up with Vera and move into my house obediently, then I promise you that everything will definitely be as it was in the past. You will continue to be the dashing and happy film emperor with a successful career ahead of him. I promise to sort everything out for you.”
“I really don’t need your help, vice chairman. Moreover, I have already prepared the cancellation letter and liquidated damages to terminate my contract with the agency with immediate effect,” Xiao Chennan replied in a calm manner. “I know that the company has treated me very well all these years, but I would also like to remind you that the company has also received many perks and benefits because of me. Furthermore, I earned my status as the film emperor based on my own hard work and ability. Since the company can no longer support and accommodate me, I believe that terminating the contract would be the right move to make as we will not be able to work together in a happy or pleasant manner.”
“Xiao Chennan! You have the audacity to tell me that you want to cancel the contract?”
“No matter what happens, I am definitely terminating this contract!”
After he was done speaking, Xiao Chennan hung up the phone without waiting for the vice chairman to reply. Xiao Chennan was just about to save the voice recording of their conversation in his phone when he suddenly heard a soft knock on his door.
Xiao Chennan initially thought that it was Qing Yan, but as soon as he opened the door, he saw Vera panting and trying to catch her breath in front of his hotel door.
“Why are you…”
Vera jumped into Xiao Chennan’s arms and hugged him before he could finish his sentence. “If Yuning can trust you and show her support for you in public despite all of the criticism, then do you really think that I will have a peace of mind if I were to remain in Luo City by myself? Brother Nan, I will accompany you.”
Xiao Chennan had originally intended for Vera to wait for him in Luo City as he kept her updated about the matter. However, since Vera was already here in person, then everything was perfect at this time.
So, he dragged Vera into the hotel toom before he pressed her against the wall and started kissing her affectionately on her lips. The both of them were so caught up in the moment and when they finally pulled apart from one another, Vera’s lipstick was already smudged.
“Will you stay here with me tonight then?”
“I will not be able to stay over at Yuning’s room today anyway. Second Young Master Lu is here too,” Vera replied as she blushed while resting her head against Xiao Chennan’s chest.
Since their relationship had already been made known to the public, since they have already received countless insults and criticism, then why should they continue escaping or living in secret?
Vera finally realized that she had lost.
She really liked Xiao Chennan.
She really liked him very much.
She would stop thinking about the challenges and difficulties that she would face in the future. That was not important at all. What was most important was that they were both together at this very moment.
…
Very soon, rumors started going around stating that Xiao Chennan’s agency had already decided to give him the cold treatment.
Those people who used to call themselves Xiao Chennan’s friends had already disappeared and they avoided any form of contact with Xiao Chennan out of fear that they would be implicated into the matter.
Aside from Jiang Yuning, no one else in the entertainment industry dared to publicly show any support for Xiao Chennan.
