Chapter 374

Qiao Sixiao's face didn't look good, and her voice trembled slightly as she spoke:

"I won't let this kind of thing happen..."

Such feeble words, so feeble that He Hong couldn't help but shake her head and sigh. She handed the wine glass to her assistant and rested her forehead in her hand, unable to stop laughing:

"Qiao Sixiao, how did I end up with such a foolish person like you? You're both foolish and naive. Such a simple trap has left you in ruins.

Compared to when you were in kindergarten, you haven't made any progress at all.

You hate me, distance yourself from me, and yet you still believe in me, depend on me. You hate me for being your boss and controlling you, but you trust me as a mother who won't sell you.

That's why you're so reckless, opening overseas accounts and making investments in your brother-in-law's name. Do you really think you're strong enough to navigate the world of finance?"

As He Hong spoke, she looked at Qin Wei.

"Let me tell you something that you all know, something that's currently a hot topic. Guo Yuyang's ambiguous relationship with his fans is a matter of character, but the fact that he was taken advantage of by certain high-ranking men might not have been willingly accepted by him.

Lin Qiqi, who had her chaotic private life exposed, perhaps has some untold hardships.

And there are many things you don't know, things that feel distant because they haven't happened to you or your friends.

The Shens and the Weis have prominent families, regardless of whether their children are treated well at home. If someone wants to bully them, they should think twice.

Sun Tiantian and Wei Lai, they're just fooling around, with no ambitions or desires.

Qiao Sixiao, you have the protection of friendship behind you. People's wariness of you is actually wariness of that friendship itself. You're just using borrowed power. You think you haven't caught anyone's attention because I'm still around, and no one dares to touch you.

But when the day comes and you venture into the entertainment industry, being devoured by those people will only be a matter of time. Miss Qin here is a perfect example..."

Qin Wei shook her head.

"It's not me. Am I not pitiful enough?"

Qiao Sixiao fell silent. She was already terrified after hearing what He Hong had said. If it was true what happened last night, then what should she do?

She couldn't imagine, and she didn't dare to think too much.

She turned to look at Qin Wei. What if it were her?

Perhaps understanding what her daughter was thinking, He Hong interrupted Qiao Sixiao's thoughts: "She's an exception. She reached the peak as soon as she debuted. She doesn't need anyone's support to be at the top. Who would dare to have any ideas about her in the public eye?

But what happens after that? When she starts to decline, how many people would want to take advantage of her? Qin Wei may appear gentle on the outside but has a strong will inside. She's far bolder than you think, but how much has she paid for her unwavering determination? Qiao Sixiao, do you really understand her?"

The two stared at each other for a long time without saying a word.

He Hong's words were heavy and brutal, leaving one unsure of how to refute them and feeling that there was no need to.

Qin Wei looked at the now cold ribeye, losing her appetite almost entirely.

"Miss Qin, I couldn't help but educate the staff just now. I apologize if it was embarrassing for you."

He Hong's tone softened slightly.

"Now that Miss Qin has left Anxing, other companies will soon find out. As long as you haven't made a decision, those companies will keep an eye on you. If you want to sign with a company, Miss Qin, you must be cautious. There are risks that Miss Qin cannot withstand.

Huanyi Entertainment naturally welcomes Miss Qin the most. I also detest those dirty transactions, so Huanyi Entertainment never allows such things to happen.

Miss Qin can rest assured that in public, I will treat Qiao Sixiao and Su Yang the same way I treat you. Not only that, once you join, Huanyi Entertainment can immediately devise the best plan to help you counteract the blacklisting. It will also be easy to negotiate the income sharing in the future. I can guarantee that it will be more than what Anxing offers...

In private matters, I won't interfere with your personal life. Whatever you want, I will offer my utmost sincerity to help you achieve it."

Oh, I've said so much, intimidating Qiao Sixiao was just a side matter. The main purpose is to persuade her to join us.

Qin Wei pointed to the person beside her.

"Is that so? Then I want her."

He Hong's expression darkened a bit, but he didn't reach the point of getting angry. However, his tone became much colder.

"It's not impossible, but..."

"Oh, no need. She's already mine. He Zong, you don't think I'm talking nonsense, right? Let me tell you, that day when we went to the party together, I had a bit too much to drink and ended up in her room, committing a sweet mistake..."

He Hong: "..."

Qiao Sixiao: "..."

Qin Wei continued without looking at their expressions.

"She escorted me back to my room, but I pushed her down instead. I kissed her ear, then her neck, and she said it tickled. Hahaha! And then..."

"Stop talking."

Qiao Sixiao felt her temples throbbing, and she didn't even dare to look up at He Hong.

"Some details don't need to be known... by my mom..."

Qin Wei grinned awkwardly at He Hong. "Oh, thinking back now still makes me blush and my heart race... hahaha..."

The corner of He Hong's mouth twitched.

"So, what you're saying is you have another level of interest in her, right? Miss Qin might have misunderstood. Although Huanyi Entertainment is looking forward to your joining, we won't easily let go of artists who can earn more for the company. With Miss Qin's current income, she is far behind Qiao Sixiao."

He Hong asked his assistant for a contract.

"I appreciate Miss Qin's character and abilities. Take this contract back and have a look. If you have any objections, feel free to contact me at any time. I think you need to think carefully about what I said and make your decision with a calm mind."

He Hong glanced at the time, stood up, and said,

"I have other matters to attend to. Let's end it here for today. As for you..."

He Hong tapped Qiao Sixiao's left shoulder.

"While you're young, you should focus on your career. Indulging too much is not a good thing."

Qiao Sixiao: "..."

...

He Hong went downstairs and saw Xiao Wang, who had been waiting at the door. He pointed upstairs.

"There's no one upstairs. You go pour the drinks and serve the dishes, and when it's almost done, take her back..."

Xiao Wang nodded vigorously and hurried upstairs. As soon as he went up, he heard the two most regretful words of his life— Qin Wei exclaimed with joy, "I'm so brave! I told your mom about what we did in bed!"

Qiao Sixiao: "..."

Qin Wei: "I've mentioned so many details!"

Qiao Sixiao: "..."

[Xiao Wang's Diary: One conversation, a sleepless night... My hands were trembling as I wrote this diary. I consulted a master, and the master said I need to do a good deed every day... I can't go on writing. Tears have blurred my vision, and my tears are all over the keyboard.]

Xiao Wang covered his ears and went downstairs, but it was safer to stay at the door.

Qiao Sixiao fiercely thumped her back and gritted her teeth.

"You're just bullying He Hong for not reading fan fiction. This trashy story by Sun Tiantian, you've used it so many times that it's practically worn out. Aren't you embarrassed? Don't you feel awkward when you read it out loud?"

Qin Wei blinked and shook her head.

Qiao Sixiao rubbed her temples.

"I've never seen such a marvelous expression on her face before. Given her personality, she would have definitely taken you down today, but she feels awkward. She can't even stay here anymore..."

Qiao Sixiao looked at the other person.

"Telling all this to my mom... Regardless of whether it's true or not, I... feel so awkward."
