Huayu: We're asking you to act, and you're playing a superhuman?

The melodious sound of a saxophone, the dew-kissed flowers, and the delicate fragrance in the air.

Wang Weili leaned back on the soft leather sofa, feeling completely relaxed.

These past few days, he has been constantly monitoring the market and trading, and he is under a lot of mental stress.

If Cai Yinong hadn't acted so quickly, he would have been planning to stay home and take a nap today...

With a creak.

The sound of the brass doorknob turning made Wang Weili open his eyes and look towards the doorway.

Surprisingly, Cai Yinong was even more covered up than him.

Baseball cap, sunglasses, and a face mask.

This outfit won't serve any purpose of concealment on the street; on the contrary, it will subconsciously draw more attention from ordinary people.

Wang Weili smiled sincerely: "It brings back so many memories! I remember the first time we came here, we were chatting face-to-face like this, right, Sister K?"

"What is your true purpose?"

Cai Yinong took off her sunglasses and mask, revealing an expressionless face and wary eyes.

She crossed her arms and glanced sideways at Wang Weili: "I don't think you're the kind of person who would betray me and then come back to catch up with me."

"I seem to have forgotten something important, which is why you have such a serious misunderstanding about me."

Wang Weili changed the subject, his relaxed expression suggesting he wasn't worried about the trending topic on Weibo at all.

Cai Yinong frowned: "Stop beating around the bush, just say what you mean!"

"It's so hot outside, and I must be parched from the journey. Why don't we have a cup of coffee first?"

Wang Weili pointed to the cup of coffee next to him, an iced Americano.

Cai Yinong swallowed hard, feeling like her throat was on fire.

The stimulation of the ice cubes on the taste buds diluted the bitterness of the Americano and temporarily extinguished Cai Yinong's anger.

Looking at the handsome Wang Weili beside her, Cai Yinong couldn't help but clench the cup in her hand.

She interviewed Wang Weili here last year.

Wang Weili is very different from other artists, and Cai Yinong has given him high praise and high expectations.

In order to ensure Wang Weili's smooth debut, she even called on Brother Hu and Liu Shishi to protect him. Even though Wang Weili and Nazha had an ambiguous relationship, she turned a blind eye.

But this newcomer, whom she had high hopes for and indulged, actually turned around and asked to terminate his contract with the company after gaining some fame!

Ingratitude isn't something you can do like this, is it?

The veins on the back of Cai Yinong's hand suddenly bulged, and her gaze toward Wang Weili returned to its sharp and wary look.

"Tell me, which companies did you contact? And what conditions did they offer you?"

"Um?"

Seeing that Wang Weili was "playing dumb" with her, Cai Yinong slammed her coffee down on the table, the clatter echoing throughout the private room.

"Why would you suddenly propose terminating the contract if there weren't better terms?"

"K-sister, you've misunderstood..."

"The company's next production will still feature you as the male lead! Lao Hu wants to start transforming and broadening his acting range, and the company has a lot of resources for period dramas and fantasy films, which you can fill in perfectly."

Faced with Cai Yinong's intense gaze and a series of generous conditions to retain him.

Wang Weili simply put down his coffee cup: "Sister K, you've really misunderstood! So far, no other agency has contacted me. My termination of contract with Sugarman has nothing to do with resources; it's just a necessary choice for my future development."

What kind of development do you want?

Cai Yinong scrutinized him with suspicion, clearly feeling that Wang Weili was making excuses.

Wang Weili met her gaze and said slowly but firmly, "I plan to set up my own studio, and if all goes well, I might collaborate with Sugar Man in the future..."

"What are you doing setting up a personal studio as a newcomer? Do you have the resources? Do you have the capital?"

Cai Yinong frowned, her attitude shifting from open to communication to clear confrontation.

To further humiliate Wang Weili, she added disdainfully, "Young man, you want to run before you can walk. Without sugar figurines, I guarantee you won't even be able to act!"

"So, K-sister is willing to let the company terminate my contract?"

Wang Weili ignored Cai Yinong's emotional outburst and accurately grasped the key point of the topic.

Cai Yinong's expression changed drastically: "You're dreaming! The company has invested so many resources in you, how could we possibly let you go so easily!"

"I actually have a different opinion on this."

Wang Weili leaned back on the sofa and said in a helpless tone, "When we were filming 'Chinese Paladin 1,' Liu Yifei benefited the most; later, when we were filming 'Chinese Paladin 3,' Yang Mi also got quite a bit of a benefit."

"They weren't even artists under the company, so the resource theory is invalid. It can only be said that the company assigned the roles to the right people..."

Wang Weili suddenly stopped speaking because he saw Cai Yinong breathing rapidly and trembling all over, as if she was about to run out of breath at any moment.

Cai Yinong was angry.

Liu Yifei and Yang Mi are the top two on the unspeakable list within the Sugar People organization.

Cai Yinong also dealt them a heavy blow, far more intense than Wang Weili's plan.

Seeing Cai Yinong's face turn as black as the bottom of a pot, Wang Weili realized he had gone a bit too far with his provocation, so he steered the conversation back on track.

"Of course, we cannot completely deny the role of resources. Personally, I prefer that a successful work is one where the production company and the actors complement each other."

"This time, I took the initiative to terminate my contract with the company, hoping for a result that satisfies both parties..."

Cai Yinong interrupted sharply: "The company won't terminate your contract. You can expect to be sidelined!"

Does "being benched" mean being sidelined or sidelined?

Even after saying this, Wang Weili remained calm and composed.

Cai Yinong glanced sideways and said, "If you can't create greater value for the company, the company will take back the resources invested in you, even if it means reducing your popularity to zero."

"From a company management perspective, I can understand considering this issue, but wouldn't you all lose everything?"

Wang Weili said, his face full of curiosity, as if the topic of conversation was what to have for dinner, rather than his impending being sidelined.

Cai Yinong sneered: "It can't be said that we lost everything; at least it serves as a warning to others."

"That makes sense."

Wang Weili nodded, then leaned back on the sofa without saying a word.

He didn't speak, and neither did Cai Yinong.

The situation reached a stalemate, with only the ever-shrinking ice cubes in the coffee cups serving as a reminder of the passage of time.

"Newcomers get arrogant after achieving a little success, thinking they're completely different people today than they were yesterday!"

Cai Yinong picked up her coffee and reprimanded Wang Weili, saying, "This is just typical teenage angst in the entertainment industry! You haven't truly experienced the harsh realities of the outside world, so it's understandable that you might do something stupid in a moment of impulsiveness!"

"As long as you can recognize your own shortcomings, lower your head, and sincerely apologize, I'll pretend this never happened, and the trending topic on Weibo will be removed!"

Cai Yinong took a sip of coffee and looked at Wang Weili with a confident air.

Ultimately, she still had faith in Wang Weili and was reluctant to give up on him. However, Wang Weili's actions this time made her determined to crush the young man's pride and arrogance, and make him obediently listen to her like a dog in the future.

Wang Weili lowered his head in deep thought, as if seriously considering Cai Yinong's words.

"Lower your head and sincerely apologize..."

Cai Yinong smiled, her heart instantly filled with joy.

Wang Weili looked up with piercing eyes, a mischievous smile spreading across his face: "...That's impossible!"
