Zhang Ning’s brows relaxed. As a woman, although she was the CEO, she was still quite interested in such things.
She looked at Liu Fangyu. “At the end of the day, Chen Che has also helped Lin Xi. Even if she’s your own child, you shouldn’t interfere in her making friends. Moreover, she’s just an artiste under you. We have to talk about the facts. The company is already on the right track. You have to deal with the problem more humanely in the future. Lin Xi is very important to the company’s development. Don’t cause trouble for the company anymore!”
Liu Fangyu knew that there would be such a reaction. After saying that, he looked at Zhang Ning firmly.
“CEO Zhang, I have to emphasize again. He’s not Luo Heng. He’s just an C-list artiste. I won’t second guess if he deliberately saved Lin Xi and treat it as if he really did a good deed. But the final outcome show that Little Xi was indeed influenced by him to do such a thing, right?”
After saying that, Liu Fangyu nodded calmly and raised his head to ask Zhang Ning.
Zhang Ning fell silent. Liu Fangyu didn’t say anything and just waited quietly.
After a moment of contemplation, Zhang Ning nodded and looked at Liu Fangyu. “Alright, I understand. I’ll pay attention to this matter next. I’ll communicate with you how to deal with it. Go ahead.”
Liu Fangyu stood up and left. Zhang Ning continued to think for a moment and gestured to her assistant. “Call Song Yiyao and see if she’s asleep.”
The assistant agreed and picked up the phone to make a call.
Liu Fangyu did not disturb her anymore. He stood up and prepared to leave. Of course, he was not just here to pass on a message. Otherwise, a phone call would suffice.
“President Zhang.” Standing at the door, Liu Fangyu turned around and asked, “Can you give me a rough idea how to deal with this matter?”
Zhang Ning stood there with her arms crossed and her head lowered in deep thought. After a while, she looked up at Liu Fangyu. “If this wasn’t done because of a relationship, the problem would be much easier.”
She continued, “Even if it’s out of repayment or loyalty, although it’s understandable, we can’t let it go just like that. After all, the nature is different. In the future, when an artist becomes popular, they can make decisions at will. In the end, the company will still have to bear the consequences. This precedent can’t be set.”
She gestured to Liu Fangyu. “As for how to deal with it, I’ll think about it again. Take her to continue on with the show first. Don’t affect this. It’s just that you have to let her come into contact with Chen Che less.”
Liu Fangyu nodded. “I understand. I won’t disturb you anymore, President Zhang.”
Zhang Ning watched Liu Fangyu open the door and leave. Suddenly, she thought of something and turned to ask Liu Fangyu, “By the way, how’s the communication between Little Xi and President Liang (Liang Mi)? If you need anything, look for her.”
“Shut up!”
Zhang Ning’s assistant had been silent all this while. At this moment, she suddenly went forward and reprimanded fiercely.
Liu Fangyu smiled awkwardly and apologized, “I spoke too much. I’ll take my leave first.”
With that, he pushed open the door and left without even looking at Zhang Ning.
Zhang Ning was stunned for a moment. Then, she watched Liu Fangyu leave and could not help but chuckle.
She turned to look at her assistant and who felt much more relaxed.
Crossing her legs slightly, Zhang Ning gestured for her assistant to answer. “Is it because you don’t care or are you afraid that I’ll think too much?”
Assistant Pei Yu, a young and beautiful girl, said calmly with a cold expression, “Because I don’t care, I’m afraid you’ll worry too much. If you care, I have to remind you to be careful.”
Zhang Ning smiled and did not say anything else.
Pei Yu did not say anything else.
“Let’s go sing. Chen Che sings pretty well,” Zhao Chao suggested.
“Is that so?”
Everyone agreed and prepared to go to the KTV to have fun. This kind of closed-door entertainment venue was suitable for celebrities like them.
Just as they were discussing Chen Che’s singing skills, Chen Che’s phone rang.
He walked to the side to answer the call. After saying a few words, he turned around and told everyone, “Sorry, Brother Chao, Sister Li. I have something to do.”
Zhao Chao did not force him to stay.
“Little Xi, do you want to come along?”
Zhao Chao looked at Lin Xi and suddenly frowned. “Where’s your manager? He didn’t come back with you?”
“He’ll probably be back tomorrow,” Lin Xi replied.
Zhao Chao waved his hand and gestured for Lin Xi to join them for karaoke. Lin Xi glanced at Chen Che and realized that he was ignoring her.
She silently followed Zhao Chao.
“Brother Chao, does the director know about our gathering? Didn’t invite him along?” Chen Che suddenly asked.
Zhao Chao replied, “There’s no need, right? Let’s…”
Chen Che glanced at Zhou Li and gestured for Zhao Chao to consider.
Zhao Chao thought for a moment and said, “Zhou Li participated in ‘Let’s Go’. It’s fine.”
Chen Che suggested, “Coincidentally, the director asked me to go back. Shall I pack some special dishes and bring them back?”
Zhou Li praised, “Little Che is better at doing things than you. You didn’t even think of it.”
Zhao Chao gestured for Chen Che to pack the food.
Chen Che returned to the hotel immersed in worry and took out his phone from time to time to check.
He had expected that Liang Mi’s call would probably not come.
Sighing softly, Chen Che came to the director’s room and thought to himself, perhaps the director has a solution?
Chen Che knocked on the door and entered. He realized that Zhang Enyi was busy in front of the computer.
He put down the takeout and saw that Zhang Enyi was about to continue working when he realized that Chen Che had yet to leave.
“What’s the matter?” Zhang Enyi turned off the computer and turned around to pick up the food. He asked as he ate.
Chen Che hesitated for a moment and told the director what had happened today.
Zhang Enyi was stunned for a moment before continuing to eat with a smile. Even after Chen Che finished speaking, he did not say anything.
Chen Che could not help but say, “Director, is there any way…”
Zhang Enyi replied, “This happened in private. What’s the use of looking for me? I only care about everything in the production team.”
Chen Che was speechless and sat down in silence.
Zhang Enyi put down the food and wiped his mouth as he looked at Chen Che. “According to procedure, they have to have a solution first, right? It’s useless for you to be anxious. It’ll make you look pretentious.”
Chen Che looked up and retorted, “So what if I’m pretentious? If the final outcome is not beneficial to Little Xi, won’t it be too late?”
Zhang Enyi was surprised. He smiled and said, “Are you saying that no matter what mistake Little Xi made, you don’t want her to be punished at all?”
Chen Che was a little depressed. “She’s trying to help me. Of course I have to do my best to protect her from the company.”
Zhang Enyi lit a cigarette. “This has nothing to do with anyone. When she makes a decision, it doesn’t matter how many people persuade her. In the end, she has to bear the consequences herself.”
Chen Che recalled that Brother Liu had said something similar.
Chen Che was immersed in his silent thoughts, as if everything around him had nothing to do with him.
Zhang Enyi’s gaze pierced through Chen Che’s heart and he suddenly asked, “What was your initial plan?”
Chen Che looked up at Zhang Enyi. “I wanted to ask Planner Chu to cut her scenes in ‘Flower Boys’. Then, I’ll get Liang Mi’s phone number from Brother Guan Chao and communicate with him in advance. Next, I’ll naturally come to look for you, the director.”
Zhang Enyi nodded and interrupted, “Then what’s the outcome? Is everything settled?”
Chen Che shook his head. “Planner Chu went overseas with ‘Flower Boys”s production team and might still be on the plane. Liang Mi’s assistant answered the call and said that he would call back when he was free. But I guess there’s no chance today and he might not call me back tomorrow.”
Zhang Enyi snorted and flicked the cigarette ash.. “How do you expect me to attack?”
