The Idol Group Pet Became a Final Boss! - Chapter 326
Chapter 326: Does Sister Xiang Yi Think My Rates Are Too Expensive?
Xiang Yi felt an urge to love.
‘These kids… It’s really hard to turn them down.’
“There is no rush to renew your contracts, but I promise to hire professionals and plan your career paths for you.”
The members of SEASEVEN nodded profusely.
Jiang Chen bumped Rong Huai with his shoulder and said with some smugness in his tone, “We will basically have a stable career as long as we are signed to Sister Xiang Yi’s agency. You gotta work hard, Rong Huai. If you can’t make it to the Film Academy, Sister Xiang Yi won’t sign the contract with you.”
Rong Huai gritted his teeth. “Are you asking for a beating?”
Xiang Yi said, “Children are not allowed to fight.”
Li Jianyu reminded, “Hey, hey, mind your language, I don’t want our livestream to be canceled!”
Rong Huai stayed silent. ‘This is infuriating, but I have to pretend to be obedient in front of Sister Xiang Yi.’
…
The netizens in the livestream room expressed their opinions emotionally.
—— [I’ve seen people scrambling to terminate their contracts with their agencies, but I’ve never seen anyone vying to renew their contracts…]
—— [They’re clearly getting shortchanged by their agency and were duped into signing a contract with them. Yet, they’re now flaunting it proudly. These little brothers of SEASEVEN are adorable yet pitiful.]
—— [We the fans are weeping. I’ve always taken pity on them for being signed to this unscrupulous agency and now, I feel like I’m starting to see a silver lining. I hope Xiang Yi won’t let them down because they trust her so much.]
…
Someone got the point.
—— [Hahaha, look at Shi Sui’s expression, isn’t it a little amazing?]
…
Countless viewers kept their eyes peeled onto Shi Sui’s face on the screen.
Shi Sui was leaning languidly on the couch, wearing a pair of gold-framed glasses that was resting on his nose. He was looking down and his long eyeshadows had cast a shadow on his fair skin.
Xiang Yi somehow felt a sudden chill on the nape of her neck, and she turned around to exchange glances with Shi Sui.
She asked in puzzlement, “Huh?”
Shi Sui asked with a casual tone, “Xiang Yi, do you hate me?”
Dumbfounded, Xiang Yi answered, “No…”
“Why won’t you sign me to your agency then…”
“You… I…”
“Xiang Yi, do you think my rates are too expensive? I can charge cheaper,” Shi Sui said in a deep voice. He deliberately made his voice even lower and a little hoarse. “Or do you think that I won’t be able to earn enough money for you after you sign me on?”
His tone was meek, vulnerable, helpless, and pitiful.
His words and voice really tugged at the heartstrings of the people who heard him.
At a loss for what to do, Xiang Yi said, “That’s not what I mean… I thought you were joking.”
After all, Shi Sui was signed to Xiang Feng’s agency, and Xiang Feng treated Shi Sui very well too. He helped him set up a personal studio and basically let him decide the jobs that he wanted to accept. In other words, Shi Sui enjoyed absolute freedom.
Why would a normal person be willing to sign a contract with another agency and let their freedom be restricted?
It didn’t make sense at all.
The netizens watching the livestream were shocked too.
—— [Damn it! Am I hearing things? Shi Sui is asking to work for her!?]
—— [@SiChuanbai: Manager Si, do you know that your artist is letting love rule his head!!]
—— [Ahhhhh, the domineering female CEO X the Best Actor of the entertainment industry. Sisters, I’m totally digging this!]
—— [The boys are vying to sign an indenture and so is Shi Sui… He’s not only selling his craft but also himself!]
…
Shi Sui pushed his glasses up his nose and glanced at Xiang Yi with a deep gaze. He said aggrievedly, “I’m not joking with you.”
Xiang Feng said feebly, “Shi Sui, I’m your boss! Hey, do you hear me?! I’m your boss!”
In a daze, Xiang Yi said, “Okay, I’ll sign you on then.”
‘One more won’t make a difference anyway.’
Xiang Feng was on the verge of a breakdown. “Little Xiang Yi, he’s jumping ship right in front of me, and you’re poaching him right in front of me too. Do you guys take me seriously at all?!”
