Chapter 376: Kicked
The board member, Zhou Hai, isn't going to let the two go. He turns to Chu Jingyi,
"Also, we already have somebody else who'll be replacing you. You can come in now!" Zhou Hai shouts, and a male comes into the room. The man's much more handsome than most people.
His face was the pure and cute type.
Chu Jingyi's expression turns dark, "So they chose you, Lai Liqin."
Lai Liqin smiles, "Of course, they are. With how you shitted the bed, it's natural somebody else has to become the face of Silverlight."
Lai Liqin was a junior of Chu Jingyi. He's one of the famous artists in Silverlight.
If Lan Liqin had joined another company, he would have been the company's face. But not for Silverlight. Chu Jingyi has always been the top dog.
Now is not the case, though.
"You don't have to worry about Silverlight anymore, senior. I will be the one to make Silverlight great again."
"Why are we still talking to these people? Tan Quan, you are stripped of your position as CEO and Chu Jingyi; your contract is broken. You two have no correlation with Silverlight anymore."
"Security!" Two security guards came, ready to take the two away. However, Chu Jingyi pushes him off,
"You don't need to take me.I can go by myself." Chu Jingyi wasn't going to let him suffer all that humiliation.
Outside the building, Chu Jingyi screams out loud, "Those bastards!" Those guys were a bunch of hyenas. They have been laying low, biding their time.
And since Chu Jingyi has messed up, it's their time to strike.
"Chhu Jingyi, calm down." Tan Quan says, trying to ease Chu Jingyi's anger.
"How can I calm down? Those assholes just took over the company. Who knows what they're going to do to it.
"What's done is done." Tan Quan sighs.
"Aren't you mad that they took your company?"Silverlight was made through Tan Quan's blood and hard work. How can he be so calm when those board members took it all away from him.
"Why didn't you do anything to stop them?" Throughout all of Zhou Hai's speech, Tan Quan never spoke up.
Tan Quan sighs, "It's because I was planning to retire."
Chu Jingyi looks at him with wide eyes. "Huh?"
"I'm old now. It's time for me to retire." Tan Quan's proud of his achievement. His small company had become a famous entertainment company in China.
Tan Quan has done everything. It's time for him to move on from it.
"But." Chu Jingyi wanted to say something. It didn't sit well with him. He felt Tan Quan faced injustice.
"You don't have to worry about me. Now I have a reason to stay with my family." Tan Quan pats Chu Jingyi on the head. He spent almost all his life in the company.
Now it's time to spend it with his family.
"..." Chu Jingyi doesn't say anything else. He saw firsthand how much Tan Quan has worked. He's right. It's time for him to take a break now.
"But what are you going to do now? Do you need me to help you get into a company?" Tan Quan knew what he was going to do. But what about Chu Jingyi? With what's going on around him, it would be difficult for Chu Jingyi to find a job.
"You don't have to worry about it. I can find a new job real soon. I'm Chu Jingyi, after all."
"...Alright. But you have to be more careful. Tell me if you ever need help, ok?"
Chu Jingyi nods, "You don't have to worry about it. I can do it."
...
"What do you mean your company doesn't want me?" Chu Jingyi was surprised by what the other person said on the phone.
"I'm sorry, Jingyi. But it's difficult for me to do anything about it." The person Chu Jingyi was talking to is a singer for another company.
"Give it to me straight; what's going on?" Chu Jingyi had asked other companies, and they gave the same response too.
Something is off.
"...How many people did you offend?"
"I only offended one company."
"It's not only one. Other companies are banning you from their shows and concert halls. Even your old company was posting rumors for you."
