"Wang Shu, did you convince your parents last night?"

On the way back, Liang Qinian looked at her with concern. Zheng Leran had said that if she joined the company at this time, she could get shares.

This is much better than that salary. He valued Zheng Leran's character and the company shares he promised, which is why he hasn't signed with any other company.

"No, my dad wasn't home when I got back yesterday, and my mom said she couldn't make the decision. My dad was still sleeping when I woke up this morning, and I didn't dare to wake him up."

Her father constantly beat and verbally abused her and her mother, and Xiao Wangshu only managed to return home yesterday after mustering up the courage. Because she ran away from home, her mother was beaten half to death by her father.

There wasn't a single unscathed spot on their bodies, and the mother and daughter cried for half an hour, their heads buried in their hands.

"Your dad should be up by now. I'll go back with you and help you persuade him."

Liang Qinian liked her and sympathized with her having such a father; he genuinely wanted to pull Xiao Wangshu out of her predicament.

"OK"

Xiao Wangshu was actually quite afraid of going home. If she weren't still a minor and unable to sign the contract herself, she wouldn't want to step into that house again.

"Brother Zheng, Wang Shu and I are going to take a trip. You guys go back first."

"Alright, be careful, speak politely, and don't anger Wang Shu's father."

Zheng Leran learned about Xiao Wangshu's father from Liang Qinian, and to be honest, he didn't really want to sign Xiao Wangshu. With a family like that, there would definitely be endless troubles in the future, and for Xiao Wangshu, her acting career was destined to be difficult.

However, Liang Qinian clearly liked her, and Xiao Wangshu was also exceptionally beautiful. Given time, they would definitely rise to the top, so Zheng Leran tacitly agreed to Liang Qinian bringing Xiao Wangshu home.

"Cousin, Xiao Wangshu looks like a vixen and only knows how to seduce people."

Huang Cuiping used to like Liang Qinian, but after meeting Xu Shaoyang, she lost interest in him. She wished he would be with Xiao Wangshu, but she was just jealous of Xiao Wangshu's beauty.

"Xiaoping, don't talk nonsense."

"I didn't say anything wrong, cousin. Doesn't that Boss Xia live with Boss Xu?"

"Huang Cuiping, let me tell you, you and Boss Xu will never be together. Just give up on that idea. Can't you see? He likes Boss Xia and listens to her every word."

Huang Chuping pursed her lips and remained silent. So what if he likes her? Right now, her cousin needs to work with Xia Yichu. Once the company stabilizes, she doesn't believe they can't be separated.

Xiao Wangshu and Liang Qinian had already arrived at the Xiao family's door. Before they even entered, they heard the sound of things being smashed coming from inside the house.

Xiao Wangshu trembled and instinctively gripped Liang Qinian's hand. Liang Qinian patted her hand, signaling her not to be afraid, and then gently knocked on the door.

The door was flung open with a bang, and Xiao's father stood in the doorway, his face full of anger. When he saw Xiao Wangshu, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"You dare come back? Where have you been all this time?"

"dad"

Xiao Wangshu called out in a trembling voice, and Liang Qinian quickly stepped forward, smiling apologetically, and said, "Uncle, we've come to discuss something with you."

Wang Shu now has a great opportunity to join the company as a star and even have shares; she's sure to make a lot of money in the future.

Upon hearing that there was an opportunity to make money, Mr. Xiao's expression softened slightly, but he still snorted coldly.

"She thinks she can be a star? Don't dream about it. You two, come in here and talk."

The floor was covered with broken glass from wine bottles. Xiao's mother quickly wiped away her tears and grabbed a broom to clean it up.

"Mom, I'll do it."

"No need, please have a seat, it will be ready soon."

Mr. Xiao sat in his chair, legs crossed, glancing sideways at Xiao Wangshu and Liang Qinian. "Tell me, how are you going to make money? Don't give me any nonsense."

Liang Qinian quickly explained in detail the situation of Zheng Leran's company and the shareholding.

As Xiao's father listened, his eyes gradually brightened, but he quickly narrowed them again.

"You mean the company hasn't opened yet? That's not just a pipe dream."

He's short of money and needs it now, but he can't wait that long.

"Uncle, the company has already reached an agreement; all we need to do is sign the contract."

"That won't work either. Who knows if a newly established company can make money?"

Liang Qinian hurriedly explained, "Uncle, it's definitely possible. Our boss is very capable, and it's not easy for Wang Shu to have this opportunity."

"Never mind, Wangshu. You're back just in time. Dad has already found an entertainment company for you. I'll sign a contract with them for you."

The guys at the company have already booked several jobs for you, and they even gave me five thousand yuan. They'll be coming to pick you up later. Work hard; our family's future depends on you.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Wangshu became anxious. "Dad, how could you sign me to a company without my consent?"

Snapped!

Before anyone could react, Xiao Wangshu was slapped hard by his father.

"Wang Shu"

Liang Qinian quickly shielded Xiao Wangshu behind him, glaring angrily at Xiao's father: "Uncle, how could you hit someone! You don't even know what company you signed with, and you've already sold Wangshu off. Aren't you ruining her life?"

Enraged by Liang Qinian's words, Xiao's father stood up, pointed at his nose, and yelled, "Who do you think you are, daring to interfere in my family affairs! I'm her father, would I harm her?"

Xiao's mother trembled with fear, grabbing Xiao's father's arm and pleading, "Honey, calm down and let's talk it over."

Just then, the sound of a car came from outside, followed by a knock on the door. Mr. Xiao said smugly, "Look, their company people are here, so stop wasting your breath."

The door opened, and three men in suits entered. The man in the lead sized Xiao Wangshu up and down, a malicious smile spreading across his face.

"This must be Xiao Wangshu. He's quite handsome."

Liang Qinian stood in front of Xiao Wangshu and asked warily, "Are you from Xinghuo Entertainment Company?"

Liang Qinian had been in this industry for two years and was no stranger to Xinghuo Entertainment Company. The man in front of him was the captain of their company's security team.

"That's right, we're from Spark Entertainment. Kid, if you know what's good for you, get out of the way and don't ruin our plans."

Xiao's father urged from the side, "Liang Qinian, don't meddle in other people's business, hurry up and leave."

"No, Dad, you can't do this to me. I won't go with them."

Xiao Wangshu pleaded tearfully. She knew about Xinghuo Company. Ever since she was chosen by a director to film a movie, she had loved acting.

She wanted to sign a contract with a company and had inquired about many, but Xinghuo Company didn't have a good reputation in the industry.

Liang Qinian gritted his teeth and refused to back down: "Spark Entertainment has a bad reputation. They don't genuinely cultivate artists; they just treat them as tools to make money."

They also frequently force artists to do things they don't want to do. Wang Shu can't go with you.

The man's expression changed, and he threatened, "Do you know what you're saying? If you dare to ruin our plans, you'll regret it."

"Get out of here! Xiao Wangshu has already signed a contract with our company. She's now one of our artists, and it's none of your business."
