Quick Transmigration: Reversing the Life of a Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character
Chapter 85 The Dark Moonlight of a Modern Rich Kid
(This storyline was originally intended to give the younger brother a startup component, but it was temporarily changed to a startup in an entertainment company. It's probably the author's personal preference to save that little bitter gourd in a parallel world!)
"Two hundred billion? Is the entertainment industry really that lucrative?" Jiang You was surprised. Although the Huo family's group had an astronomical market value, it was a behemoth. In front of him was just one person.
"I didn't make much money. I only get 10% of the profits, and I donated it all. Now I only have less than 10,000 yuan in my bank account." Jing Ci smiled bitterly. He keenly sensed something and always felt that the money he earned was not clean, so he donated all of it except for what he gave to his family.
"Where do you live? Go and take your personal belongings now," Xu Linlang said decisively.
Jiang You was only twenty years old, in the prime of his youth and full of passion: "Quickly, take your things when they're not looking."
Jing Ci gave an address, then added with some worry, "They've set a perfect trap. I've tried many methods, including seeking help from big names in the industry, but they haven't let me go. Will this cause you trouble?"
"Don't worry, it's nothing." Xu Linlang looked at the face that was seven or eight parts similar to his own and felt a little uncomfortable.
"Yeah, don't worry, my sister likes you, she can make you go public." Jiang You subtly rubbed salt into his sister's wound, saying that the Yan family had gone public.
Jing Ci felt somewhat embarrassed; he didn't want to use his body to gain power.
"What nonsense are you talking about? When did I say I liked him?" Xu Linlang denied.
"Huh? Then why do you insist on taking him away?"
"Silly girl, you're incompetent, and the people your uncle gave you aren't capable either? Have them investigate what kind of people your new friends are, and you'll understand." Xu Linlang wasn't sure how similar this world was to her own, but malice couldn't be faked; they were both perverted and criminal, just in different forms.
"Sis, I'm not stupid."
Xu Linlang felt exhausted. She had been reluctant to go out today, and after being disgusted by what she had just experienced, she was now dealing with something that caused her great emotional turmoil. She didn't want to talk, so she closed her eyes and mentally re-simulated the mission plan for this world.
The car fell silent for a moment. Half an hour later, they arrived at their destination. Xu Linlang opened her eyes and led a few people out of the car and upstairs.
"Take what's important and don't waste too much time."
"Okay, you'll have to take both dogs with you."
"Um."
Jiang You, unable to stay still, followed Jing Ci into the bedroom: "You have so little stuff? Shouldn't celebrities have lots of clothes? You can't even fill two suitcases."
Jing Ci was a little embarrassed: "I bought all of these myself, and some were inexpensive gifts from fans. The ones from brands were all taken by my manager."
"Your agent doesn't seem like a good person."
"Yeah, he would hit me at the drop of a hat. When I was renewing my contract, I didn't want to, but he brought people to the film set, dragged me out, and beat me. He even threatened to beat my mother. My mother is old, and I didn't dare to gamble, so I had no choice but to sign."
Xu Linlang stood in the living room, feeling a pang of sorrow in her heart. They looked alike, their experiences were similar. Chu Lanyu was an ordinary person, and even if she had known beforehand, she wouldn't have been able to save him. But Xu Linlang was different; she had the status and ability to save another similar person from a parallel world.
Jing Ci had very few things, and with the dogs' things included, the tidying up was done quickly.
"Miss, where to?" the bodyguard in the car asked.
"Go back to the apartment in the city center and have someone clean up the apartment downstairs for Jiang You so he can move in first." When her daughter came of age, Ms. Huo bought five adjacent floors in the city center as a coming-of-age gift for her.
Xu Linlang lives on the ninth floor by herself. She cleaned up the floor below for Jiang You to live in, but he hardly ever went there. The fifth floor below was rented to a company, the sixth floor was occupied by bodyguards, drivers, cooks, and cleaning staff, and the seventh floor was always empty.
"Sis, the facilities on the seventh floor are not complete. Why don't we stay in a guest room on the eighth floor first? Anyway, I'm the only one on the eighth floor."
"It's okay, I can sleep on any mattress." Jing Ci didn't want to bother others with trivial matters.
"It's fine, I don't live there much anyway, so it's just sitting empty."
"Let's leave it at that for now. You can move over there once the seventh floor is cleaned up."
Security was very tight where Xu Linlang lived; all the security personnel downstairs were trained in martial arts. She directly asked the property manager to register Jing Ci as a permanent resident.
On the eighth floor, after the bodyguard put Jing Ci's things in the guest room, he went downstairs to rest.
Jiang You glanced at his sister and then at Jing Ci, before making a startling statement: "Sister, the obstacles to your liking him are greater than those to your liking for Yan Mingxuan."
The Yan family at least owns a listed company, yet their eldest uncle still judged Yan Mingxuan to be unworthy of their sister and sent her abroad to calm down. This guy is just a celebrity from an ordinary family; let alone their eldest uncle, even the Xu family wouldn't agree to it.
"Don't talk nonsense, I don't like him."
"I don't believe it. You love love at first sight. The way you look at him is different. That's how you looked at Yan Mingxuan back then." Jiang You didn't actually like his sister going abroad. Even though they bickered and fought, and his sister only had Yan Mingxuan in her heart and ignored him, her brother, she was still the closest person to him by blood. He still hoped to stay by his sister's side.
"I really don't like him. The way I look at him is because his face looks a lot like someone I used to know. That person died tragically without my knowledge. I didn't even know the real cause of his death. I was powerless to help that person. Now, I can't bear to watch this face, which is seven or eight parts similar to that person, suffer the same humiliation." Xu Linlang looked at Jing Ci's face, but her gaze seemed to pierce through the void and look at another person.
"Sister, is it about what happened abroad?" Jiang You asked cautiously, noticing a faint sadness emanating from his sister.
"Oh," Xu Linlang mumbled a single syllable, then asked Jing Ci, "How many years left on your contract?"
Three years.
"I'll have someone review your contract and then we'll discuss a strategy. Jiang You, didn't you want to start a business? How about registering an entertainment company?"
"Huh? That works too." Jiang You said excitedly. He wanted to start a business, but he didn't know what to do, so he was making friends everywhere to see if there were any good projects.
"Then your first task after registering the company is to transfer his contract to your company without bloodshed."
"Okay, I'll discuss it with him."
Xu Linlang stood up to go back upstairs to rest, and Jing Ci cautiously asked, "I have a brand event tomorrow, can I go?"
"Go ahead, I'll go with you, with bodyguards. We still need to keep this business; we can't ruin our reputation." Jiang You quickly got into the swing of things.
Xu Linlang reminded: "Apart from the events that have already been scheduled, do not do anything else before the lawyers and public relations have reached a conclusion. Also, do not leave the bodyguard's sight. If you have any needs, let the property manager here handle them. The food will be prepared on the sixth floor and brought up. You can order in advance, so it won't cost you any money."
"I eat simple food; I can cook it myself."
"We don't have that feature. Apart from the sixth floor, the only other places we can use are for boiling water."
"oh!"
