He is so Spoiled 29

 

Chapter 29

Kerry Entertainment Company.

For the third time, the agent hung up the phone, with veins popping out of his forehead as he looked at Song Jianing, who was sitting uncomfortably on the sofa across from him. Through gritted teeth, he asked, "What's going on?"

"I...I don't know," Song Jianing avoided his gaze and spoke with obvious hesitation. "I didn't do anything..."

"You didn't do anything?" The agent slammed his phone onto the coffee table with a cold laugh. "So, someone just decided to forge evidence and frame an unknown small-time star like you for no reason? Look at this video, it's crystal clear that you treated someone else like a blind person. "

Song Jianing was taken aback and instinctively followed his hand to look at the phone. He was already nervous about what happened yesterday, and now he saw himself in the video sliding his thumb on Su Nuo's phone screen, he was suddenly alarmed.

Even such a subtle movement was captured on camera!

"I don't know... maybe I was too nervous at the time and accidentally slipped. I didn't do it on purpose! Really, I didn't do it on purpose!... It must be Su Nuo! Su Nuo did it!" Song Jianing tried to explain.

"Shut up!" The agent pounded the table in annoyance. "So, even if you know it was him, what can you do? Can you afford to offend him? How stupid can you be! You dared to touch his phone while recording the show! As if you were afraid that others wouldn't catch your evidence and eagerly sent it to him to find death? Among so many people on the show, who else is as brainless as you to stir up trouble! And there was the time when Su Nuo got into a fight! Have you seen any artist follow the trend and attack someone on Weibo? What, do you think your life is too comfortable now, and you're bored?"

Song Jianing was anxious and scared after hearing this. He asked, "What should we do? You must have a way, and I have saved some money! Take it and find someone to help me! You know so many people, there must be a way!"

The agent was irritated by his constant pleading. Even if he had a way, he couldn't use it. Was he supposed to sacrifice himself for someone like Song Jianing? He had offended Su Nuo, but he himself had not. He still needed to continue to mix in the industry. He could just leave the situation now and each go their separate ways.

He didn't bother to deal with him and impatiently said, "This time, even if you have money, there's nowhere to spend it. I just called and asked, the hot search cannot be removed. Someone gave the order, and it's useless for anyone to try."

Song Jianing may seem arrogant, but in reality, he lacks courage. When he heard his agent say this, he felt remorseful and could tell that the agent seemed to be planning to give up on him. For a moment, his throat felt tight.

"I'm not looking for trouble for no reason. I'm just jealous. He doesn't do anything, but he gets attention from the judges and fans. He has so many fans even though he's not ranked higher than me. But what about me?"

He choked a bit and wiped his eyes with his sleeve. "That pervert Zhao has left me bedridden with injuries. I worked so hard for this opportunity, but he took it all away! All the attention went to him alone! Why does he deserve it? All those fans and all that attention he got, he got it by stepping on me!"

This struck a nerve with the agent. In the entertainment industry, jobs like his often involved a bit of "transactional" activity. Unless one had already reached the top of the industry, most people would introduce "resources" to big bosses in order to make money. The Zhao that Song Jianing mentioned was someone whom the agent had introduced him to.

This Zhao was generous and didn't mind spending money on his lover. He just had some special fetishes in bed, liking to torture people until they were on the brink of death. At the time, he didn't tell Song Jianing about it.

But Song Jianing was smart enough to not say anything when he was hospitalized the next day. He performed well, making Zhao very satisfied, and as a result, he also earned a lot of money. Recently, it was only because of Song Jianing that he had received some attention from the company. He had never said these words before, and if he were to bring them up now, he would be in the wrong.

Thinking of the old times, the agent softened his tone. "Forget it, I'll think of a way. In the future, remember to discuss things with me first!"

Song Jianing didn't have time to wipe away his tears, so he nodded quickly.

The agent sighed and took out his phone while dialing. As soon as the call was connected, his tone became flattering. "Hey, Brother Lin, it's me. Oh, right, it's me, Xiao Wang. I have something to ask you..."

When Lin Xiatian followed Su Nuo's assistant up to the 22nd floor, he found Su Nuo sitting in front of a piano, studying a sheet of music. As he got closer, he was almost blinded by the Steinway & Sons piano. Lin Xiatian had a lot of questions he wanted to ask, but they all flew out of his head when he saw the piano. He jumped up excitedly and exclaimed, "This piano!"

Su Nuo brushed aside the long hair that was obstructing his view, and looked up. "This piano?"

Lin Xiatian cautiously approached and touched the edge of the piano, examined it carefully, then sat down next to Su Nuo, still staring at the piano with an expression that was even more intense than when he saw his first love. 

Su Nuo shifted to the side and asked, "What's wrong?"

Lin Xiatian finally tore his gaze away from the piano and struggled to refocus on his original purpose for coming up. "At a time like this, you're still studying music?"

Su Nuo tilted his head. "What? Did I make the hot search again?"

Lin Xiatian paused, then got to the point. "The production team is using yesterday's incident to stir up controversy, and they're spinning a story about you and Song Jianing having some sort of grudge. Did you see it?"

Su Nuo didn't change his expression as he nodded slowly. "I saw it."

Lin Xiatian continued anxiously, "You need to be careful! If this controversy gets too big, people might use it to slander you in the future. And as for Song Jianing, you need to watch out for him too. We can't forget the lesson we learned from Pei Qiran. If he does anything behind your back and you're not prepared, it'll be easy to fall into a trap. And without evidence, it'll just be your word against his."

Su Nuo stood up and poured Lin Xiatian a glass of water, trying to calm him down. "Don't worry, the studio is already aware of the situation and we have evidence. Nothing big will happen."

But Lin Xiatian was now even more anxious than before. He fidgeted in his chair, struggling to speak several times before finally managing to say, "I have something I want to ask you..."

Su Nuo patiently watched Lin Xiatian's silent performance for a while before bursting out laughing. "Just ask me whatever you want to know, don't keep it bottled up."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiatian's eyes immediately lit up. He pinched his fingers for a moment to organize his thoughts, then slowly spoke up, "So, you know that Mr. Jiang from yesterday? And this studio, are they all arranged by the 'brother' you mentioned last time?"

As he spoke, his eyes didn't blink as he watched Su Nuo's expression. After a pause, he continued to ask, "Also... Have you encountered any difficulties recently? I mean, if there's anything you can't solve, you must tell me. Although our family in the capital is not a top-tier family, we still know a lot of people. If there's any problem just tell me and I might be able to help."

Su Nuo's heart was warmed again, "Don't worry, there's nothing wrong. It's true that he helped me with all of this, but it's not as complicated as you think." He blinked, "But the process of how I met him is a bit difficult to explain. I can't say it for now, but if you guess it later, I'll tell you."
