In which the System Torments the Protagonists: My Wife is My Life!

Chapter 24 – After saying this, Ji Qingqing slowly tugged up the blanket that was covering Lu Lixing’s body until it covered…. his face (2)

At the same time, in one of the Tianyu Entertainment’s director’s offices, Zhou Ti looked at Meng Xun, “Why did you come here?” She looked as if she was itching to denounce someone.

Meng Xun dropped a large stack of papers onto his desk before sitting down. “Director Zhou, didn’t you agree that these endorsements would be given to Weiwei? I’ve already scheduled the shooting times with those brands. Why was I told that those endorsements have been canceled?”

Compared to the upset Meng Xun, Zhou Ti was calm. He smiled and said, “Meng Xun, you’re also someone that’s been at this company for a while. You should know that these endorsements were negotiated by the company. It’s up to the company’s higher-ups to decide who they want to give these endorsements too. As long as the contacts haven’t been signed yet, anything can happen.”

Meng Xun sneered, “Alright then, tell me, who will these endorsements be given too?”

“They’re going back to the original actress.”

Meng Xun briefly froze in surprise. Soon, her eyebrows furrowed. She incredulously looked at him. “Ji Qingqing?”

Zhou Ti nodded.

Meng Xun was silent for a long time before she suddenly smiled. “Director Zhou, Weiwei has left the hospital and promised to not sue Ji Qingqing. Do you think that because the company’s image has been saved, you can abandon Weiwei now that she’s no longer useful to the company? You know what Ji Qingqing has done. As long as Shen Weiwei sues her, there will be a criminal case against Ji Qingqing and she’ll go to jail. Are you crazy? How can you give these endorsements to a person that’s going to jail?”

For Zhou Ti to advance to a director level, he had to be exceptional in certain aspects. So, he wasn’t angered by Meng Xun’s words. He leaned back in his chair, raised an eyebrow, and meaningfully smiled. “Meng Xun, we’re both old foxes. There’s no point in putting on this show of righteous indignation. I know everything that’s going on in the entertainment circle. It’s just not worth my time to control every little thing that the juniors are doing. Whether it was Shen Weiwei accidentally tripping and falling down or if it was Ji Qingqing pushing her, I’m sure you know the truth even better than me. Why are you coming here as if you’re a victim’s family member that’s demanding justice?”

The attempt at framing Ji Qingqing couldn’t be publicized. After all, they had to continue making a living However, Meng Xun knew that she had to save Shen Weiwei. Lu Lixing had been in a car accident and was in intensive care. Lu Liting was the Lu family’s only successor. And, she had clearly seen Shen Weiwei holding Lu Liting’s hand while they were walking on a sidewalk.

Lu Liting was definitely Shen Weiwei’s boyfriend.

Meng Xun had been an agent for a long time, and she was already tired of not being able to climb up in the ranks. Was she going to be an agent to third-rate actor and actress for the rest of her life?

“Director Zhou, I don’t understand what you’re saying. Are you saying that Weiwei is slandering Ji Qingqing? You’ve met Weiwei before. She’s not the type of person to do something like that. She’s not Ji Qingqing!”

“Enough!” Zhou Ti wasn’t in the mood to keep talking to her. “This isn’t something that you or I can change. Leave.”

Meng Xun stormed out in anger.

Once the door to his office was closed, Zhou Ti called Lu Lixing and reported how this matter was progressing.

“Ceo Lu, I’ve gotten a recording of what happened at the scene. Ji Qingqing didn’t push Shen Weiwei. Shen Weiwei accidently tripped and fell down the hill. Ji Qingqing is innocent.”

On the other side of the phone, Lu Lixing lightly said, “En, I got it.”

It had been easy enough to order someone to investigate Ji Qingqing’s matter. Although he had only known Ji Qingqing for less than a day, he could see that she wasn’t as bad as she was portrayed on the Internet.
