The Male Lead Conquest System Fell in Love with Me

Chapter 15

Ji Huan turned back and glanced at Yin Zhizhi.

Being accused, Yin Zhizhi remained completely calm: "Ms. Xiao, please understand the root of the matter before coming here to speak."

"I don't know what the root of the matter is, but your behavior of being disrespectful to an investor, even kicking someone, is a troublemaking act. When I was under Ji Huan at Starlight before, I would never do such a thing, or cause trouble for the team. Ms. Yin, I'm just giving you a friendly reminder."

Ji Huan's expression remained unchanged.

Yin Zhizhi thought for a moment, and still said: "Someone was harassing me, blocking me from leaving. I kicked him."

The simple narration told Ji Huan what had happened.

Ji Huan's ink-black eyes glanced at Yin Zhizhi, but she didn't know what he meant.

Yin Zhizhi added: "I can assure you that from any angle, the surveillance footage will show that the other party was bullying me. I was acting in self-defense. Ms. Xiao's reminder is really ridiculous. After being bullied, am I not even allowed to retaliate? Protecting myself is considered causing trouble for the team?"

Her expression showed no anger, and she spoke with confidence and logic.

Seeing that Yin Zhizhi was about to gain the upper hand in the argument, Xiao Xiangyun immediately said: "I only saw you kicking someone, so I thought I should come and remind Ji Huan, to prevent the matter from escalating."

Yin Zhizhi wanted to continue arguing back.

However, Ji Huan pulled her behind him, standing in front of her facing Xiao Xiangyun: "Thank you, Ms. Xiao, for the reminder. Now that you've reminded me, we'll be leaving."

Xiao Xiangyun felt a bit reluctant, as she wanted to have a meal with Ji Huan...

"Ji Huan, the hotel has surveillance cameras..."

Ji Huan cut her off: "It's even better if there are surveillance cameras. If there's any trouble, the footage will serve as evidence. Zhizhi has also said that the other party bullied her. She was just acting in self-defense."

Of course, he was protecting his own artist. He was well aware of Xiao Xiangyun's background.

Initially, when he brought her on board, he had already planned to promote her for half a year. But in just over two months, she jumped to a rival company, simply because the rival promised her ten leading roles.

A mere promise seduced her away, after he had just made her popular.

Xiao Xiangyun did get to play the leading role in her first drama at the rival company, but the show wasn't a huge success, only average. Now, her second leading role has been delayed indefinitely.

Xiao Xiangyun is currently coasting on her previous popularity. If her dramas and exposure don't pick up soon, she'll lose her momentum in a few months.

Everyone knows that Ji Huan recently invested in a film, and everyone wants to get a role in that film at all costs.

Ji Huan realized that she wanted to use Yin Zhizhi's incident to blackmail him. She must have recorded the surveillance footage.

But Ji Huan wouldn't be swayed by such a minor issue.

"Ms. Xiao, next time, please don't be so abrupt in your speech. We're not familiar with each other, so there's no need for a meal. Moreover, ladies should have empathy for other ladies. Ms. Xiao's words today were quite shocking, and I cannot agree with them."

Ji Huan turned back and said: "Zhizhi, let's go."

Yin Zhizhi really liked Ji Huan's serious and authoritative manner. It must have been so unpleasant for Xiao Xiangyun to be spoken to like that.

As Yin Zhizhi passed by Xiao Xiangyun, she said: "Ms. Xiao, even if you're unwilling to call me a senior, you shouldn't say... that someone who debuted more than a decade before you is a newcomer. And you shouldn't block someone's manager from leaving. That's quite rude and disrespectful. Goodbye."
