CHAPTER 37: YOU REALLY DID OFFEND ME

When Weng Lan saw Yi Shu standing respectfully in front of the boss lady and calling that village girl President Gu, she suddenly stood up—

She asked Yi Shu, "Did you just call her President Gu? Which President Gu?"

Yi Shu had come in to ask Weng Lan to call Li Yan for him. He had learned from the photographer that Chi Yu should be with Li Yan. Since he didn’t have Li Yan’s phone number, he came to Weng Lan for help.

Who knew he would run into President Gu talking to Weng Lan about business?

Seeing Weng Lan’s terrified expression and recalling how she said earlier she wanted to sign the boss lady into the entertainment industry, Yi Shu immediately realized he was a step too late; Weng Lan had hit a wall with President Gu.

Yi Shu, heart pounding, called out President Gu and then introduced her to Weng Lan: "This is President Gu, the youngest chairman in the history of the Gu Group and currently the highest executive at Yingcan Century Entertainment."

As Yi Shu’s introduction concluded.

Weng Lan distinctly felt her legs go weak.

Suddenly, she felt a bit unsteady, her body swaying? Her chest felt tight, like she couldn’t breathe... She struggled to calm herself; this overwhelming shock was indeed hard to digest.

The Gu Group...

How many Gu Groups could there be in Sui City?

If she couldn’t make the connection, then Yingcan Century was certainly not unfamiliar to her; it’s currently the largest entertainment company in the country.

The main office is in Sui City, with branches big and small throughout Hua Country.

Even the Juhua Media she was with now was a subsidiary of Yingcan Century.

That meant this President Gu before her was her superior’s superior, the big boss!!!

And just now, she had actually called this President Gu ungrateful.

Weng Lan nearly blacked out; the truly ungrateful one was actually herself...

She nervously walked over to Gu Yuan, standing by Yi Shu’s side, her cheeks and ears burning as if on fire. She struggled to calm herself, smiling and saying to Gu Yuan, "President Gu, earlier I failed to recognize the mountain before my eyes and accidentally offended you. I’m sorry."

The person in front of her was a formidable female tycoon only seen in financial magazines!

Blame her for not recognizing, for not often paying attention to the business world, it was indeed hard to connect the owner of a rural inn with the female tycoon.

"You did indeed offend me." Gu Yuan raised her eyes, her gaze mild as she glanced at Weng Lan.

Weng Lan didn’t dare to breathe under that gaze.

Gu Yuan hadn’t intended to reveal her identity. If she were the high-profile type, the entire Ancient Water Village would probably know her identity.

Entering the entertainment industry? Sorry, but she was the helmsman of the entertainment industry.

She had planned to politely decline Weng Lan’s offer.

But she hadn’t expected Weng Lan to be so aggressive, first belittling her then attempting to entice her to enter the entertainment industry as her cash cow.

Gu Yuan wasn’t an unreasonable person either.

She pointed to the Artist Contract and Cooperation Agreement on the table and said, "I wasn’t aware Juhua Media had an agent as headstrong as Sister Lan, but I must admit that for new artists entering the industry, such a contract is indeed flawless."

Cold sweat broke out on Weng Lan’s forehead: "President Gu, I realize the severity of my mistake, I..."

"Business prioritizes profit, with each performing their own duties, I understand. However, I must offer you some advice from the company’s interest perspective: don’t be too reckless, do you think the law is just for show?" Gu Yuan looked at Weng Lan, her words slow but clear.
