Chapter 358 The Second Limit Up & Thoughts Of Female Employees

Su Yang picked up the phone on the table and called the administrative office. He asked her to call one of the five trainees to his office.

When the administrative officer heard Su Yang’s strange request, he was stunned for a moment before he agreed. Five minutes later, there was a knock on the door of Su Yang’s office. The sound was gentle, and it made the person seem timid.

Su Yang looked at the computer screen and said in a low voice, “Come in.”

The door was pushed open, and a young female trainee entered.

Su Yang had some impression of that trainee. She was the one who often hung out with Yang Meiyue. She was also the one that Director Wang liked and wanted to sleep with.

She did not look that old. In fact, she looked like she was underage. From her appearance, she looked like she was only fifteen or sixteen years old. She was slightly thin, and her face was pale. When she raised her eyes, there was a hint of fear and evasion in them, giving her a pitiful look.

Su Yang looked at her and asked, “Your name is…?”

The girl said, “Director Su, my name is Qiqi.”

“Qiqi?” Su Yang repeated the name as his gaze landed on the girl. “Is that a stage name?”

The girl nodded.

Su Yang asked, “How old are you?”

Hearing Su Yang’s question, Qiqi bit her lips as panic flashed across her eyes…

Earlier, she had been in the waiting room with the other four trainees, looking at her phone in boredom.

Last night, Tan Mei had talked to them and told them about the company’s plan to freeze them and terminate their contract. Therefore, they knew their fate and did not have any thoughts of struggling. Just as the five of them were playing with their phones and chatting, the executive of the company suddenly came over and said that Director Su wanted a female trainee to go to the office alone.

Although the five trainees were not considered part of the entertainment industry, they had heard about the unspoken rules of the entertainment industry.

When they heard Su Yang’s request, none of them dared to reply.

Girls these days, especially those whose families could provide money for them to enter the entertainment industry, were not exactly poor in terms of family background. No one was willing to sacrifice themselves for the sake of art.

Even if Su Yang would remove her from the back bench after she gave her body to him, without Chu Hong’s presence in New Arts Culture, it was not that attractive.

No one knew how New Arts Culture would develop in the future.

Therefore, these five trainees might as well wait patiently for their ban to pass before their contracts were terminated since they had already been given up by the company. Then, they’d switch to another artiste company.

At that time, even if there would still be unspoken rules… they would have to sacrifice themselves, at least for a good price.

Other than the trainees who were rather realistic, no one wanted to partake in these unspoken rules even if the other trainees did not have such thoughts so the five girls did not take the initiative.

In the end, Qiqi became the sacrifice under the mutual ‘recommendation’ of the other four girls.

Even though she was reluctant, Qiqi still had to go to Su Yang’s office.

When she heard Su Yang’s question, Qiqi’s heart skipped a beat. She thought that Su Yang was going to cheat on her. She felt that she would not be able to escape this calamity. She stammered, “T-Ten seventeen years old.”

“Seventeen years old.” Su Yang scanned her body. “You’re quite young. I really can’t tell.”

Qiqi lowered her head.

She was indeed slightly younger than the other trainees, and compared to the other trainees, her family background was quite average. The other trainees all had good family backgrounds, so they supported them to be celebrities. Even if they failed, they could arrange jobs when they returned.

Only she was different from Yang Meiyue.

Yang Meiyue was a rural girl and her family was made up of farmers. She didn’t want to farm, so she came to the city to work. At first, she worked in a textile factory, but she was accidentally chosen by a scout on the way, so she came to New Arts Culture.

As for Qiqi, she was slightly better than Yang Meiyue. Her parents were from a small city, but she did not have much money at home. She also had a younger brother. Her studies were average, so she entered society to work after finishing her high position. She was also scouted.

Therefore, among the trainees, she and Yang Meiyue were the ones who were bullied.

Yang Meiyue was naturally more introverted and silly, so she was bullied less. Or rather… she did not think she was bullied.

On the other hand, Qiqi’s personality was weaker, so she was bullied and ostracized more.

This was also the reason why Chu Hong forced Yang Meiyue to seduce Su Yang. She and Qiqi were first targeted by Director Wang and then ‘recommended by other trainees.

Furthermore, because of her poor family background, she did not have the capability to be willful like other trainees and wanted to stay in the company. After all, being an artist, it was much better than working in a factory even if she was a trainee…

Su Yang, on the other hand, did not notice anything unusual about her. His gaze was fixed on the computer screen. Without looking at her, he asked, “I called you here this time because I have something that I want you to do. Of course, if you’re unwilling, I won’t force you.”

Qiqi’s eyebrows were knitted together and her hands were clenched tightly. ‘It’s coming, it’s coming…’

Su Yang’s heart was filled with joy as he looked at the stock market. He stared at the changing numbers and asked casually, “Have you contacted Chu Hong these few days?”

Qiqi looked at Su Yang in shock. “What?”

Su Yang looked at her and repeated, “Have you contacted Chu Hong these few days?”

Qiqi did not understand what the unspoken rules had to do with Chu Hong. She shook her head weakly. “No, no.”

Su Yang raised his hand and pointed at her. “Then give Chu Hong a call and tell her that you still want to rely on her. Ask her about her current situation.”

When Qiqi heard that, she quickly said, “Director Su, I… I don’t want to leave the company. Sister Chu forced me to agree. I had no choice.”

Su Yang glanced at her without saying anything

Su Yang knew very well that Chu Hong did not force Qiqi. Although she did force Qiqi, she did not feel pressured. It was Qiqi’s own decision to leave.

Su Yang did not feel that Qiqi was lying. It was human nature to express one’s feelings when speaking

Under Su Yang’s cold gaze, Qiqi did not dare to speak anymore. She obediently took out her phone and dialed Chu Hong’s number.

Beep… Beep… Beep… Beep…

After a while, the call went through.

Qiqi glanced at Su Yang and pressed the speaker button. “Sister Chu, it’s Qiqi.”

Chu Hong’s tired voice came through the phone. “Oh, what’s wrong?”

Qiqi asked softly, “Sister Chu, are you alright? The company has changed a lot. I want to know when you will be back. I still want to follow you.”

Chu Hong’s voice was slightly annoyed and cold. “I don’t have time recently, so it might take some time before I can go back. If you have anything to say, listen to Luo Yi. I’ll deal with it when I get back.”

Qiqi stole a glance at Su Yang, who was still staring at the computer screen. She knew that her phone call would not satisfy Su Yang, so she asked, “Sister Chu, what happened to you? Can I help you?”

Chu Hong said, “I’m sick. I need some time to recuperate.”

When Qiqi heard that, she had an idea and asked, “What illness? Is it convenient to talk about it? I have a relative who is a doctor. He might be able to help you.”

Chu Hong’s hesitant voice came from the other end, but in the end, she said coldly, “No need.” Then, she hung up.

After hanging up, Qiqi looked at Su Yang pitifully.

Su Yang looked at her and felt that this girl was not as weak and innocent as she looked. On the contrary, she was very smart. Su Yang nodded at her. “Thank you, but I have to tell this to others.”

Qiqi looked at Su Yang and whispered, “Director Su, can I stay?”

Qiqi’s second request surprised Su Yang. He turned around and faced Qiqi. Then, he said, “Director Tan should have talked to you guys before. I will only freeze you guys for half a year. After half a year, you can terminate your contract and jump ship.”

He paused. “I remember that most of you value Chu Hong’s ability, that’s why you’re willing to stay in New Arts Culture. Since Chu Hong has left, there should be no reason for you to stay here.”

Qiqi nodded and said honestly, “That’s true. After Sister Chu left, half of New Arts Culture collapsed.”

Su Yang was amused. “Since you know, why did you stay?”

Qiqi looked at Su Yang and said weakly, “But… I don’t have anywhere else to go. I don’t think the other companies will want me.”

Su Yang was speechless. ‘This reason of hers is too realistic! ‘And this female trainee is too honest!’

Su Yang looked at her and smiled. “Please leave.”

Qiqi looked at Su Yang and realized that he had no intention of retracting her order. She could only bow to Su Yang before leaving the office dejectedly. Even though Su Yang was looking at the screen, he was looking at her from the corner of his eyes. He seemed to be deep in thought…

However, he was immediately attracted by the stock market opening.

The pork-related stock today was still as ferocious as ever. Furthermore, the five that Su Yang had chosen were exceptionally fierce. The moment the market opened, they were pushed to the limit.

It was an act that was caused by several hundreds of thousands of hands, and it pushed the stocks to their limit.

Su Yang looked at the time. It was 9:31 pm. Within a minute, all five stocks had hit their limit up!

‘I’m going to be rich! Another few hundred thousand!’

Su Yang felt that money had never come so easily…

He stared at the dashboard, trying to see if there was something, but he realized that it was rather… boring.

The five stocks increased by 10.01% to 9.92%. They were all at the limit up price. They looked exciting, but they did not move. It would be boring to watch them after a while.

Su Yang gave up on looking at the stock. He laid on the chair and thought about Chu Hong.

‘Chu Hong fell sick? Looks like it was caused by the (Book of Negative Symptoms).

‘However, what kind of random symptoms did the (Book of Negative Symptoms) give her?

‘How curious!

‘I wonder if I have any special items that can tell me what illness she has?/

At the thought of the special item, Su Yang suddenly remembered that he had not exchanged for the recipe item this week!

‘It was already Thursday! If I don’t exchange for another week, it’ll be over again!

‘Should I use today’s free time to buy ingredients and exchange them for the recipe items?’

Su Yang opened the system shop…
