The voice on the other end was silent for a fraction of a second, before steadily replying, “I know . ”

He paused before adding, “Don’t worry . ”
Those simple words from him were like an anchor for her . Immediately, it stilled the wild thumping of her heart .
She drew a deep breath and spoke, “Okay . Where are you?”
“At a business meeting,” his answer was concise .
“And is it going well? Qiao Lian asked casually .
Then she heard the ring of soft, deep laughter coming from the other end . After a pause, he said, “Xiao Qiao, are you worrying that I won’t be able to feed the family?”
She kept silent at his teasing and hung her head with a disheartened smile .
He had thrown out 50 million without batting an eyelid .

She was moved by his love and friendship .
She cleared her throat and looked up . “It’s okay . If a time comes that you can’t feed the family, I’ll work and keep you well-fed . ”
“I have to say I’m grateful to my great wifey . ”
She found herself turning bright scarlet at his teasing remark as she walked down the street .
She lifted her hand to touch her burning cheeks .
Great wifey .
Why did those words make her feel so shy all of a sudden?
She looked ahead, her vision unfocused and distracted . “You keep working then, I’ll hang up now . ”

“Ok . ”
In the top management meeting at the office .
Shen Liangchuan was standing at the corridor . The smile on his face vanished at once the moment he hung up .
Song Cheng stood behind him, frowning as he reported, “The two artists with whom we signed last month have asked for termination of their contracts . I’ve done some asking around . They’ve been poached by a newly-established entertainment company called NQ . They paid a high price and indicated that they would aggressively promote the artists . ”
Upon hearing this, Shen Liangchuan’s expression darkened .
NQ .
Nan . Qiao .
He cast his gaze down to hide the mockery in his eyes .

Indeed, Lu Nanze was aggressive . It had only been a few days, but he had already set up a company?
Nodding, Shen Liangchuan said, “We won’t keep people who have no loyalty . But make sure they pay their full penalty . ”
Song Cheng nodded to show he understood, however, he had a worried expression . “But what should we do now?”
They only had a few artists under their belt .
It was extremely pitiful .
Shen Liangchuan thought for a moment before he said, “I recall that Mo Xicheng’s contract is about to expire . ”
Song Cheng’s eyes lit up .
At this point, his cell phone suddenly rang .
He picked up the line, spoke respectfully for a short while and then hung up the line with a heavy expression on his face . He looked at Shen Liangchuan and said, “We’re finished! The investor that we struck a deal with two weeks ago wishes to withdraw their capital now . At the moment, we don’t have much cash flow . We were depending on the money from this investor to pay our staff’s salaries . ”
The 50 million they had had initially were Shen Liangchuan’s personal funds and they were meant to go into investing in the company . However, it had now been used to pay the costly penalty for terminating his filming contract .
This had caused a shortage in the company’s cash flow .
And now, disastrous consequences were striking them .
Song Cheng sighed . He looked up and glanced at Shen Liangchuan, but saw that there had been no change in his expression .
Song Cheng cleared his throat . “If we can’t resolve this… Shall we ask the Shen Family to invest?”
At this suggestion, Shen Liangchuan looked up and gave him a deadpan look .
Song Cheng immediately lowered his gaze when his eyes met with Shen Liangchuan’s . “Forget what I just said . ”
