Chapter 965: Put on the Back Burner

Chapter 967: Put on the Back Burner

Whatever Ling Sheng was worried about would happen. Under the help of her grandparents and mother, Third Master had actively apologized together with her, and they vowed never to do it again. It was finally over, but she was in trouble now. She had really been put on the back burner. Not to mention the script she had been drooling over, she had lost all her jobs.

At this moment, a huge battle was taking place in the living room. As the central figure of this battle, Ling Sheng hid at the door and eavesdropped.

It had already been a whole week since the incident had been exposed. Her mother had come to quarrel with her father a few times, and each time, it had been a terrible fight.

“Huo Ci, I don’t agree!” Nangong Lengyu threw the contract aside angrily and looked at him furiously. “Tell me, what do you mean by this? That incident has already passed. What else do you want?”

Was he a child? Were all contracts like child’s play to him? L-Star had signed an endorsement contract with Sheng Sheng. The brand she wanted to establish would not be abandoned just because she had found her daughter. She would continue working on it now and in the future.

However, this scumbag in front of her not only would not give Sheng Sheng any resources, but he also wanted to terminate the contracts that had already been signed.

Huo Ci, who was chewing on an apple, slowly lifted his head with a smile on his handsome face. He asked, “Is she an artiste of my company?”

Nangong Lengyu said, “You’re not distinguishing between public and private matters. She made a mistake at home. You can scold or hit her if you want, but what mistake did she make at work?”

Huo Ci said, “Didn’t she make a mistake at work? Since she’s an actress and has decided to take on a role, isn’t she wrong to reject acting in a drama for her personal matters? Is this what a professional actress should do?”

Besides, she had yet to give a legitimate reason to this date. Why had she rejected the role of the ‘School Bully’ out of nowhere?

“I know it’s because of the drama ‘School Bully’, but you’ve also seen how much effort she had put in. She was studying the plotline every day. The script is densely packed with her understanding, and she can even recite the script backward. If it hadn’t been for a compelling reason, would she have stopped acting?” Nangong Lengyu also knew that her daughter was in the wrong for this matter.

“Then, exactly what’s the reason? Get her to give me a reasonable explanation, and I’ll resume all the work she has on hand.” Huo Ci casually threw the half-eaten apple into the trash can. “Otherwise, no deal!”

Speaking of resources? Ever since she had debuted, which resource had not been carefully selected by him? He had not let her down at all.

But as for her, she said she couldn’t say it. Exactly what was the reason that made her reject ‘School Bully’ and keep mum about it up till now?

“What do you want? What will make you willing to let Sheng Sheng go?” Nangong Lengyu laid out her cards directly. “If you’re not willing to support her and give her resources, I’ll set up a studio to serve her alone. Leave her to me.”

He wasn’t their daughter’s only parent. Since he was unwilling to support her, she would support her daughter and give her whatever she wanted. After all, she was her only daughter. As long as she was happy, she would give her the entire Nangong Family, let alone the chance to act or the entertainment circle.

“That’s how she was spoiled by you people.” Huo Ci’s smiling face finally revealed his anger. His lips curled up coldly. “You can give her anything she wants. If she wants the stars in the sky, are you going to pluck them for her?!”

His parents were like this, and so was she. That d*mned brat also had the personality of wanting a mile when given an inch. Sooner or later, she would be pampered into a useless person!

“Even if she wants to eat my flesh, I’ll cut it for her.” Nangong Lengyu’s expression was cold. “Tell me, what terms do you want?”

She had already come here three times this week. She did not want to quarrel with him every time. It was meaningless and fruitless.

Since he had already made up his mind not to give Sheng Sheng any resources, and wanted to put her on the back burner, what was wrong with her taking her daughter back?

“Okay!” Huo Ci bit out a word. “Okay, well done to all of you. I’m the only evil person here. I’m the only heinous villain here! Nangong Lengyu, I’ll throw down the gauntlet to you today. You want to terminate the contract? Impossible!”

“Huo Ci!” Nangong Lengyu let out a cold laugh. Her eyes were as cold as ice as she tore the contract termination letter he had given her. “I’ll tell you this today too. I’ll definitely manage Sheng Sheng’s future path! I don’t agree with this termination of contract!”

Huo Ci’s lips curled up in disdain. “Then let’s meet in court!”

“Sure, I’ll see you in court!” Nangong Lengyu was annoyed too. Her ice-cold eyes carried a rare fire. “Just you wait. What’s so great about the entertainment circle in China? Your contract is only effective in China too. I’ll take Sheng Sheng and Xiaoqi overseas. I still have some connections in Hollywood.”

Did he think he could bind Sheng Sheng tightly with that single contract? Dream on!

So what if Sheng Sheng did not develop her career in China? The world was the biggest stage, and China was just a small fish pond. Compared with the globalized Hollywood, it was nothing.

Huo Ci’s heart suddenly skipped a beat. He had not expected her to be so ruthless. However, he simply could not admit defeat in front of her. “Okay, then, let’s see if she chooses to follow you or me!”

“Huo Ci, are you that confident?” Nangong Lengyu looked at him mockingly. “Don’t think I don’t know how you treated Sheng Sheng and Xiaoqi in the past six months. She’s an adult. She has the right to choose whether she wants to live with you, me, or by herself.”

Sheng Sheng was not a child, and the law could not control what choice an adult made.

“Then, let’s wait and see.” Huo Ci’s eyes were full of rage hidden in its depths. She was threatening him! She had actually threatened him in this way! His smile was bone-chilling. He picked up the document she had torn in half and handed it to her. His lips curled up. “Ms. Nangong, goodbye! I won’t see you out!”

Nangong Lengyu let out a cold snort and turned to leave. He had said that neither Sheng Sheng nor Xiaoqi was around. There were only the two of them. Every second was a form of torture to her.

Ling Sheng did not dare to go out either. She just peeped through the gap in the door. Her father had said that she was not allowed to go out. She was a little scared, afraid that things would get out of hand.

However, it seemed like the two of them had still fallen out!

Before this, she had even thought that there was a possibility of the two of them getting back together. However, in the past week, she had realized what it meant ‘to be more stubborn and proud than the other’. No one was willing to lower their heads.

Grandma was right. One’s personality determined everything. It was because of their personality issues that the two of them ended up parting ways.

“Have you seen enough?” Huo Ci let out a cold laugh, lifted his leg, and kicked the door. His deep, irritated voice drawled at the end as he asked, “How was it? Was the show interesting?”
