Bet Agreement

It had been her principle all along when she was the Best Actress Bai Yun. Since her debut, she hadn't been involved in a single drama or variety show that could make the audience criticize her.

On the other hand, the original Bai Yun already had a bad starting point. From now on, everything had to be planned.

Yin Wei glared at her. "Bai Yun, are you aware of your current situation? If you're so picky, do you think you can receive a good script?"

Bai Yun did not mind Yin Wei's question. After all, it was the boss who was negotiating with her.

President Li calmly took a sip of strong tea and smacked his lips. "If you simply refuse to accept this and that and still want the company to provide you with resources, there has to be some results for us to see, right?"

Bai Yun felt that it was understandable that he based all his decisions on benefits. After all, he was a businessman. She was confident that she could turn the situation around.

"President Li, the current situation of the company and the market doesn't allow the company to nurture talent show artistes anymore, right? The hype cycle is too short, and it costs a lot of resources to nurture them. My goal…" She paused and glanced at the office staff, before saying in a light but firm tone, "Is never a momentary popularity. If I want to do it, I have to stand at the top. I'm willing to sign a bet with the company."

Shocked by the word 'bet', Yin Wei's gaze landed on the extremely attractive face.

Bai Yun was born gorgeous, but because of her personality, that beautiful face of hers had always appeared a little dispirited. However, at this moment, she looked indescribably beautiful with the corners of her eyelined eyes raised, revealing a hint of decisiveness.

'That's right. That face should go with that expression.'

President Li absent-mindedly set his cup on the table and clasped his hands together. "Three years, 100 million yuan."

Bai Yun raised her eyebrows. Though he had underestimated her, she accepted it. "Deal. If I don't achieve that, I'm willing to pay the company ten times the breach of contract fee."

Standing behind her, Du Qing was stunned by these words. At present, Bai Yun's penalty for breach of contract was 10 million yuan. Ten times that was an astronomical sum. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she would go bankrupt!

This condition made President Li smile until his eyes curved. He immediately agreed and said, "Next, the company will be collaborating on a script with a famous director. Although it's a third female lead, the scenes are outstanding. If you can get good results in this acting training class, this audition opportunity will be yours."

Yin Wei's expression darkened, understanding that she had completely lost control of Bai Yun.

Bai Yun smiled. "President Li, don't worry. I'm confident." It was definitely not just confidence in this role.

Having settled the matter of resources, Bai Yun came out of the office feeling refreshed.

Everything was going well and the original Bai Yun's trajectory had completely changed. Now, it was time to realize her ambitions.

What Bai Yun had achieved in reality at the age of 23, she was also confident of accomplishing it here.

Looking at the straight-backed Bai Yun, Du Qing couldn't help but admire her. Sister Yun had told her that she had had a dream. After waking up from it, she realized that many things should be very simple, and that she shouldn't waste time and energy on things that weren't worthwhile. She had to have a goal and climb her way up step by step. She wouldn't count on anyone.

When she spoke, she sounded a tad lonely and brave. Even Du Qing subconsciously yearned for the peak that Bai Yun had mentioned.

'She would definitely succeed,' Du Qing thought.

However, the reality was that Bai Yun, who had drunk too much water, was desperately looking for the bathroom.

Du Qing: "…"

Although her fantasy was shattered, Du Qing still brought Bai Yun to the washroom. She stood outside the cubicle and played with her phone. Just as she was playing happily, she saw a group of people walking towards the washroom from the corner of her eye.

At the sight of the leader, Du Qing's head began to ache.

Coincidentally, the cubicle door behind her opened then. Before Du Qing could think, she quickly pushed Bai Yun back in.

Bai Yun: "???"

Du Qing tugged at Bai Yun's sleeve and whispered, "Sister Yun, there are many people in your training class in the washroom. They harbor great malice towards you."

Tilting her ear to listen for footsteps, there were indeed quite a number of people. In the past, when she was in her original world, though she disdained to be entangled with such cliques, she never hid. However, considering her current situation, she decided it was better to keep a low profile.

The group of artistes probably came in to touch up their makeup. After a long silence, a slightly pretentious voice sounded, "Have you seen the trending list?"

She paused for a moment and only continued after hearing the others agree. "This Bai Yun is really stupid. Only she will fancy someone like Ge Fei."
