Chapter 218 - Hitting The Rock Bottom (2)

What kind of agency and brand would be willing to work with him after his reputation was tarnished by Jiang Li?

He had been naive not to acknowledge the red flags that had been so clear during the time they were together. Like any other couple, they frequently argued with each other, but it was also clear that they both had different goals in their lives. However, Qin Muyao was willing to compromise because he loved her.

Unlike her, who was born from a family with money, Qin Muyao was strict with his expenditures, but that didn't mean he was stingy when it came to her. Whenever he had free time from work, he would always take her out for a date and buy her expensive things that could make him wince whenever he used his card to pay for them.

However, Jiang Li thought that he was too tight with money despite the fact that he was earning more from his projects and endorsements over the past months, while Qin Muyao thought that she was being unrealistic and unreasonable about the things he could afford.

"Is there something else we could do?" His mother asked. "Why don't we wait for the issue to die on its own? Perhaps people would eventually forget about it if we keep silent about it." She added.

Su Xiaofei shook her head. What Miss Huo just said was just wishful thinking on her part. It would never be that simple when it comes to the entertainment industry.

"I'm sorry, Miss Huo, but an issue like this might take two to three years to be forgotten. When that time comes, I have no doubt that your son would be as good as nothing and this issue would forever mar his reputation." She disagreed with the older woman.? There were just things that the public wasn't aware about how the entertainment industry works.

Qin Muyao nodded in agreement. Even if he waited for the people to forget about this controversy, with a lot of talented newcomers, it would be hard for him to make a comeback and compete with them. Even a senior would be ashamed to compete with his juniors under the same stage and criteria.

"Do we have other options, Manager Su?" Miss Huo asked again. Her anxiety had shot over the roof since the controversy started.

"Well, your son has several options, but I'm not sure which one he is willing to take." Su Xiaofei started. "First, he could suggest settling the matter privately with Jiang Li and financially support her child, but it would be the same as admitting that he was the one who impregnated her. Second, Qin Muyao could release their intimate conversations, throwing dirty water on Jiang Li, but this might also backfire on him. You would want to protect his name as much as possible. The third one is my way."

She then paused and glanced at Qin Muyao, knowing that he was racking his brain to think and consider her offer.

Su Xiaofei wasn't planning to play a heroine or someone's savior, but in her past life, the Jiang family had offended her mother greatly, and she was merely trying to get even with them. Also, she intended to make Qin Muyao her money tree, so she couldn't bear to waste this chance.

"I promise you that at the end of this controversy, Jiang Li and her family would be the ones losing their face and not you. But Qin Muyao… are you willing to pay the price for it? You once loved Jiang Li. If it wasn't for that, you wouldn't have given her multiple chances and forgiven her. But look where that got you."

Qin Muyao couldn't refute her words at all and knew what she just said was right. Choosing the first option would be the same as admitting responsibility for a child that wasn't his in the first place, while the second would still pose some disadvantages towards his character and his career.

Right now, everyone was pushing him to his own death, and he didn't know how long his mother would be able to endure hearing such demeaning words about him. If the child was his, of course he was willing to take responsibility for it and marry Jiang Li despite her lies and deception, but Qin Muyao wasn't willing to be trapped in her hideous web.

"I will make Jiang Li eat her words and beg for your forgiveness."

These words from Su Xiaofei's mouth made Qin Muyao lift his head and look at her with wide eyes. He wasn't hurt by what people say to him, but he was greatly offended by Jiang Li's false accusations and actions.

"Can you really do it?" He looked at her sternly.

Qin Muyao felt severely wronged by Jiang Li and everyone. He wanted some vindication from it.

"I can." Su Xiaofei said calmly, her lips curling into a smile, making her appearance more stunning.

Qin Muyao was accustomed to seeing beauties, but looking at Su Xiaofei, he was still stunned by her face. Her smile was apathetic, which he never would've thought possible from a young woman like her.

She had been clear from the very beginning that she wasn't helping him out of pity, but because she wanted to make him her money tree.

"Manager Su, I don't care about your intentions.. I only care about the results."
