Ch.7 Abandon Heroine’s Status and Become an Insignificant Cannon Fodder (4)

Being the heroine was such a dangerous task, so she’ll let whoever wants the position to take it. She wanted a life where she could relax peacefully with her paternal aunt.

Because she lost her memory, even though she knew her ending from her dream, she couldn’t relate to the future pitiful life. Likewise, she didn’t feel anything for her so-called daughter.

In her memory, only her paternal aunt existed.

It might be a bit cold-blooded, but when thinking about accepting a four year old daughter, she subconsciously rejected the idea since she only had the memory of a student in senior year.

……

That night, when her manager, Wen Mei, found out that Lin Yueqi was going to attend 《Celebrity College Entrance Exam Competition》, she angrily called and swore at her.

Lin Yueqi tossed the phone to the side and allowed Wen Mei to scold the sky. Meanwhile, she didn’t answer or listen to the call. Instead, she kneeled on the ground, hummed to a song and packed her suitcase.

There was a month before she needed to enter the set, so she planned to visit her paternal aunt at her native home. While she was at it, she would go and visit her rumored daughter and then bring her to find her father.

Ocean Bay.  The top floor of Mante International Hotel could overlook the entire bay’s night view.

Qin Xue was eating along with Maice’s CEO Zhuang. The woman was slightly drunk from drinking and her cheeks were a cute shade of red, lovable.

The woman was irresistibly beautiful and all men would probably fall by her feet. Even Zhuang Boshan who had countless women couldn’t have enough of Qin Xue’s beauty.

Zhuang Boshan was Maice’s CEO and Lin Yueqi’s boss.

Qin Xue crossed her hands and slightly propped her chin, saying softly, “CEO Zhuang, I heard that Lin Yueqi’s contract is almost up. Are you planning on extending the contract with her?”

Zhuang Boshan was about to answer when Qin Xue sighed and said, “People within the circle all know that Lin Yueqi doesn’t really like me. If I sign to be an artist under your company, wouldn’t I have to fight with Lin Yueqi? CEO Zhuang, I…”

She dragged her words purposely and left space for Zhuang Boshan to continue. Her posture was elegant and delicate, but paired along with unrivaled beauty, she became adorable in this man’s eyes.

Zhuang Boshan placed his hand on the back of her hand and gently patted, comforting, “Her contract will end in the middle of this month and I’ll let my people know not to extend the contract. You can rest assured and sign my company. I’ll give you the best resources.”

Qin Xue withdrew her hands and revealed a good-looking smile, saying, “CEO Zhuang, thanks for taking care of me.”

Zhuang Boshan knew that she was a difficult woman to pursue, so he wasn’t anxious.

He knew very well in his heart that whether it be business or personal purposes, abandoning Lin Yueqi and choosing Qin Xue was the correct option. Qin Xue has room for improvement and he had a feeling that she wasn’t at the peak of her career yet.

As for Lin Yueqi… the peak of her career had passed and it would be very difficult to pull her back into that position. Comparing the two, Zhuang Boshan decided to abandon the rook and save the king.

While Qin Xue and Zhuang Boshan were drinking and chatting, she received a notification.

“Ding. The storage energy within the 【Beauty Filter】system is depleting. All the beauty filter functions in the system have decreased from level 5 to 4. Please quickly recharge!”

Zhuang Boshan was just talking to her when he noticed that she froze, so he asked, “A-Xue, what’s the matter?”

Qin Xue relaxed her knitted eyebrows and smiled, saying, “CEO Zhuang, since you’ve decided, I hope you can quickly let her know and not wait until the day the contract expires. Although I am rivals with her in terms of career, in the end, it was because of me that she couldn’t continue signing with Maice. I hope you can quickly tell her, so she has time to find another company.”

Zhuang Boshan nodded and said, “That’s fine too. I’ll let Wen Mei notify her.”

While I was in highschool, I really hoped that I had a salary of more than 3,000. That way, I can save up my money and open a snack counter by the school and sell spicy sticks…
