The real heiress is a fortune teller; her divinations are worth a fortune, and the whole internet is

Chang Xi was used to it. The moment she was scolded, it was as if her senior sister was standing with one hand on her hip, pointing at her nose and scolding her for causing trouble.

It even feels a bit familiar.

"They deserved it. I can swim, but they targeted me in the pool, which is why I got cramps and almost drowned. I hold grudges, and I'll teach them a lesson if I don't. I didn't tell you because it's a rule in our sect that we can't bring people from outside the sect back," Chang Xi explained.

Lanlan tried to find evidence of lying on Chang Xi's face, but he was so serious that he couldn't be more so. "Did you really calculate it, or did you find it out yourself?"

"If I had these connections, would I have needed to remain inactive for so many years?" Chang Xi retorted, she genuinely noticed it.

"Why haven't I heard you mention this before?"

"My sect has a rule that I am not allowed to show myself in public before I turn twenty-three. I just turned twenty-three a couple of days ago."

What kind of rule is this? I've never heard of it before.

"Is your sect legitimate?" Lanlan strongly suspected that she had been scammed by a pyramid scheme.

"It's proper," Chang Xi said, vouching for his sect. "This rule only applies to me. I don't know the specific reason, but my master said I have a short life and won't live past twenty-four."

To protect me, they don't want me to reveal this ability too early, saying it will ensure my safety.

"Pah, pah, pah, what unlucky things are you talking about," Lanlan slapped her mouth three times. "Luckily, you still had some sense this time and didn't take care of Ran Qingqing too. She's the future boss of Unique Entertainment."

"The boss's wife?" Chang Xi hadn't thought that much about it.

It was true that I didn't see any problem at the time.

Ran Qingqing's face struck her as odd; she couldn't see anything on it, as if it were covered by a film.

"Yes, you've even forgotten this. What can we expect from you? Unique Entertainment is a talent agency established three years ago. Although it's a short-established company, its boss is Gu Qingfeng, the second young master of the famous Gu family in City A."

Gu Qingfeng founded Unique Entertainment, leveraging the connections and resources of the Gu Group, and it's been doing very well for the past two years. He and Ran Qingqing have been seeing each other for about six months now; almost everyone in the company knows about it.

Lanlan realized what was happening, "You didn't know? Then Ran Qingqing really doesn't have any problems."

"I'm not sure, it's because I didn't see it," Chang Xi leaned back in his chair, deep in thought. "She's the first person I can't figure out just by looking at her. We're from the same company, so I can go back and study her."

"No, please stop investigating, brother," Lanlan finally gave in. "The companies behind the artists you've offended have come knocking on our door, demanding an explanation from their bosses."

Now all the higher-ups want to see you. You're going to get a severe dressing-down and be fired. I can't save you.

"There's such a good thing? Then there's no need to save me. I wanted to terminate the contract anyway." Chang Xi was saying his own thoughts, which were also the original owner's thoughts.

The original owner never liked being in the entertainment industry. When Lan Lan approached the original owner, she was still an intern. The original owner couldn't bear to see her fail to meet her KPIs, so she agreed.

After joining the circle, I realized that I really didn't like the environment here.

The original owner didn't hesitate and wanted to terminate the contract with Lan Lan, but at that time, because Lan Lan hadn't become popular for a year, the company arranged for her to be another artist, keeping her extremely busy.

The original owner decided to put it aside for the time being and deal with it after she finished her work.

This delay led to Chang Xi's arrival.

Seeing that she wasn't joking, Lanlan asked with concern, "Why? Did someone bully you? Was it some kind of underhanded deal?"

"No," Lanlan was very responsible as an agent. The fact that someone with such outstanding looks could remain unscathed for the past two years showed that she had put in a lot of effort and never forced the original owner to accept work she didn't like.

Chang Xi spoke frankly, "I don't like the environment in this industry. I actually wanted to tell you this a long time ago, but you were busy at the time, so I kept putting it off."

Lanlan sighed, feeling somewhat guilty. "It's all my fault. If I were more capable, I could have made you famous sooner. I just don't understand, what's wrong with your face? Even if there are countless beauties in the entertainment industry, you still have these eyes. Such a unique and irreplaceable face, why aren't you popular?"

"What is destined to be yours will be yours; it's just a matter of fate," Changxi said with a clear conscience. Fate is something that can never be explained.

Lanlan stood at the meeting room door and reminded her, "Don't say anything out of line. Let's try to terminate the contract peacefully, okay?"

"Okay, I won't provoke her." If someone does provoke her, then they can't blame themselves.

The conference room was filled with senior executives.

There was only one empty seat; clearly, no seats had been prepared for the two of them.

Chang Xi walked straight to the main seat, plopped down, and didn't notice anything amiss.

Lan Lan's eyes widened in fury. "Big brother, you're sitting in the boss's seat."

Before he could finish speaking, the boss, Gu Qingfeng, walked in.

"I know, they didn't even prepare seats for us. Isn't that a signal that we can sit anywhere?" They thought they could intimidate her, but they were wrong.

Although Chang Xi loves to eat, what he dislikes most is losing money.

Gu Qingfeng called to his assistant, "Get two chairs."

He made do with the chair his assistant had brought and sat at the other end.

Lanlan also got a seat by freeloading.

Chang Xi's gaze followed Gu Qingfeng's movements.

Gu Qingfeng was very handsome, with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, exuding a rugged kind of handsomeness. The single skull earring on one side made him look extremely wild.

Chang Xi frowned; he saw a deathly aura emanating from Gu Qingfeng.

He was dying.

What surprised Chang Xi even more was that Gu Qingfeng's left eyebrow was broken.

In physiognomy, eyebrows represent the "sibling palace," signifying both health and siblings. A broken eyebrow, acquired later in life, can indicate great wealth and high status, but it can also be an omen of misfortune, signifying impaired health and separation from siblings.

A greasy-looking man spoke first, "Do you know how much trouble you've caused the company? How much money have you made us lose?"

"I don't know," Chang Xi said casually. "You guys took money from the guests, didn't you? You colluded to make me a stepping stone to help them reach the next level."

"You weren't famous to begin with, so being infamous is still being famous. This is all for your sake."

"But they wanted to kill me, didn't you know?" Chang Xi's eyes swept over these people. Some of them had karmic debts on them, and some had a strong aura about them.

Apart from Gu Qingfeng in the main seat, none of them were completely clean.

"Many people want me dead, but in the end they will suffer more than me," Chang Xi said, resting his chin on his hand. "You watched the live stream, right? Maybe I can also see the secrets that you all don't want others to know."

The high-level officials looked at each other in bewilderment.

Only Gu Qingfeng remained calm and composed, saying, "Tell me about it; I'd like to hear it too."

A senior executive joked, "Boss, she just got lucky, don't believe her."

"That's a different price," Chang Xi didn't agree immediately.

The higher-ups were eager to get rid of this troublemaker. "Here's the termination agreement. Sign it."

Lanlan took a look and said, "This isn't right. The company wants to terminate the contract, so why is there a penalty for breach of contract? Four million. Even if Chang Xi sold himself, he couldn't afford to pay that."

"It seems you're not very sincere," Chang Xi said, pointing out each person one by one like the King of Hell calling out names.
