Hey! The CEO who just scolded me met someone on a blind date.

Chapter 210: Being sold and paying for someone else

The two of them made an appointment to meet at Ye Jingshu's studio. When Su Ziya knocked on the door, Ye Jingshu didn't even lift his eyelids or say a word. Su Ziya stood there for a few seconds and knocked on the door a few more times awkwardly. Only then did Ye Jingshu look over with a frown.

"Sister Jingshu," Su Ziya said with a sweet smile on her face, "Is it not disturbing you?"

Ye Jingshu had a faint smile on his face, "No, come in and sit down."

The lukewarm attitude made Su Ziya feel uneasy. She sat carefully on the guest chair, holding the shoulder straps of her bag with both hands and looking at Ye Jingshu who was concentrating on his work.

She thought she would say a few pleasantries and ask about her recent situation, and she would take the opportunity to tell her about her recent misfortunes and ask for her help.

However, Ye Jingshu didn't even look at her or say anything, which made her wonder whether she should speak first, but she was also afraid of disturbing her work.

While struggling, Ye Jingshu raised her head, still smiling faintly, "How are you doing recently?"

Su Ziya bit her lip, lowered her eyes slightly and shook her head.

Ye Jingshu sighed, "I've heard about your situation. You called me several times, but I happened to have something important to do, so I didn't answer. You won't blame me, right?"

She looked sincere and apologetic. Su Ziya was inexperienced and tears were already in her eyes. "Sister Jingshu, I'm sorry for bothering you all the time."

Ye Jingshu handed her a tissue and said, "We are sisters, you don't need to say these things."

"I was actually quite surprised that the company suddenly terminated your contract. It's hard to find a female artist like you who is both talented and willing to work hard."

Ye Jingshu glanced at her and said, "You know, that person has the final say in Huacheng. I'm afraid that few people have the courage and ability to support you now."

Hearing this, Su Ziya's heart suddenly sank to the bottom, and tears began to fall. Was her acting career, which had finally started to improve, going to be ruined like this?

"Do you know why the company terminated the contract with you?" Ye Jingshu asked earnestly.

Su Ziya had no idea the reason. The company just informed her that she did not meet the company's development needs and asked her to find another job. She wanted to meet with the company's top management to get an explanation, but they didn't give her the chance.

Seeing her shaking her head, Ye Jingshu lowered his head and said, "In fact, the company is jointly owned by Jiang Huaizhou and me."

After saying this, Su Ziya was stunned, "Sister Jingshu, it's you..."

"Of course not." Ye Jingshu interrupted her, "In my mind, you are my biological sister. How could I fire you?"

Her face was full of sincerity and her voice was gentle, and Su Ziya felt guilty instead, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have questioned you."

"It's okay." Ye Jingshu handed the water on the table to her. "Actually, I am against it, but you know, in front of Jiang Huaizhou, I am just a small shareholder, and I can't do anything."

Yes, no one can be the leader in front of the Jiang Group.

Su Ziya secretly pinched the hem of her skirt and mustered up her courage, "Then can I meet Mr. Jiang?"

The mockery in Ye Jingshu's eyes flashed away, "He is your brother-in-law, and you still can't see him?"

Su Ziya gets angry when talking about this relationship. Although they have this relationship, Jiang Huaizhou has never fought for anything for her. All her achievements are earned through her own efforts.

She looked embarrassed, "You know, my sister is no longer here, so I have no reason to look for him." She was frightened when she thought of Jiang Huaizhou's dark face.

Ye Jingshu nodded, "Yes, things are unpredictable."

"But what are you going to tell him?"

"I just want to ask him why he wants to terminate the contract with me. What did I do wrong?" Su Ziya was unconvinced.

Ye Jingshu frowned, sighed, and spoke after a while, "Do you really want to know the reason?"

Su Ziya nodded heavily.

Ye Jingshu looked conflicted. After Su Ziya's repeated requests, she reluctantly said, "Everyone has witnessed your efforts during this period. You have also gained good resources and increased your exposure opportunities. Many directors have told me that they value you and want to train you. Even Director Zhang asked you to act in his movie."

"only……"

Su Ziya's blood was boiling with excitement at what she said before, and the word "but" was undoubtedly like a bucket of cold water poured over her head. She stared at Ye Jingshu and swallowed unconsciously.

"It's just that Yaoyao has wanted to act in Director Zhang's play for a long time... You also know the relationship between her family and the Jiang family. Her brother and Jiang Huaizhou are also brothers..."

Having said that, there was no need for Ye Jingshu to continue speaking. Those who understood would understand.

Su Ziya knew that Gu Manyao had just announced that she would be starring in Director Zhang's play. It turned out that the role was originally hers. When she thought of this, she clenched her hands unconsciously and murmured, "Gu Manyao..."

Ye Jingshu held her hand tightly and said, "Don't think too much. There will always be opportunities in the future. I am just being nosy. Why do I say this? Be good and don't mess around."

Su Ziya lowered her eyes slightly and said, "Sister Jingshu, don't worry, whatever I do has nothing to do with you."

Quickly hiding the smile in his eyes, Ye Jingshu said nervously: "Ziya, don't!"

"I have something else to do, so I'll leave first." Su Ziya stood up and walked out. "Thank you for telling me this."

"Ziya, you have to calm down!" Ye Jingshu stood up and shouted at the departing figure. After the person was completely far away, he sat on the chair and started turning around.

There was no need for her to take action, as someone would naturally come forward to deal with Gu Manyao. This feeling was simply too good to be true.

……

Gu Xiaochen was in Jiang Huaizhou's office, earnestly persuading him to see a psychiatrist on time. Jiang Huaizhou was almost sick of listening to him and impatiently drove him away. He was about to refute and say a few more words when his cell phone suddenly rang.

Seeing the phone number, Gu Xiaochen couldn't help but frowned and swiped the screen of his phone, "What's the matter? Tell her, I don't have time to visit her recently."

Yesterday, Gu Manyao called him and asked him to visit the set, but he didn't agree. He didn't want to go to those artificially constructed scenes. They were so fake that they couldn't be more fake. He would just watch them on the screen. I didn't expect this girl to let her bodyguard call him today. She's really spoiled.

"No...no, Master, the young lady is missing."

Gu Xiaochen: “???”

"What?" Gu Xiaochen had no doubt about the truth of the matter. No matter what Gu Manyao did, she would never make such a joke.

"When did it happen? Who did it? What the hell are you doing?!" Gu Xiaochen became more and more excited as he spoke, and ordered someone to go look for him on the phone.

He was on the set, fine, how could he disappear?

Jiang Huaizhou, who was standing by, naturally heard that the situation was serious. He fumbled for his phone and made a call, "Check Gu Manyao's whereabouts. Who were the last people she came into contact with, and who did those people come into contact with?"
