When Mama Song came in, she snatched Shi Qianduo’s white fungus soup and said, “You still dare to drink something Shen Liuchun made? What if she spiked it with drugs?”

Shi Qianduo looked at Mama Song’s nervous face and could not help but laugh, “If she wanted to poison me, she wouldn’t have waited until now to do it.”

Mama Song sighed, hoping that she was overthinking things.

Shi Qianduo did not say anything else and left. After all, she was going to look for the manager today. She would not take Shen family’s recommendation. Gong Lan was indeed very capable, but she was still a member of the Shen family. If she fell into the Shen family’s hands, how could she still hope to stand out one day? This was her first step into Star Media, and she would not let anyone ruin it.

In a private room of a coffee shop.

Shi Qianduo was sitting opposite a long-haired woman in her thirties with exquisite makeup.

“I’m really grateful that sister Tongtong could take time out of her busy schedule to meet me.” Shi Qianduo said with a smile.

“Miss Shi made an appointment with me, how would I dare to not come? But I’m really busy, so just tell me what you need.” Wu Qintong did not touch the coffee in front of her, her expression cold.

Shi Qianduo liked her straightforward personality. Besides, she was not here to reminisce about the past. She said in a direct manner, “I want sister Tongtong to be my manager. You and Gong Lan are on par with each other in Star Media now, but Gong Lan is my stepmother’s lackey. I don’t dare to take up her services.”

Wu Qintong politely declined. “There are many managers in Star Media. Miss, it’s not like you have to ask me to be your manager. Besides, I just signed with two new people recently. I really don’t have the time.”

Shi Qianduo smiled. She had guessed that Wu Qintong would reject her. After all, Shen Deshun was the one who made the decisions at Star Media. If Wu Qintong agreed to be her manager, it would be equivalent to standing against the Shen family.

“The two newcomers you just signed don’t necessarily have to have you as their manager. As the future heir of Star Media, I still have that right.” Shi Qianduo smiled. Obviously, she wanted Wu Qintong to be her manager.

Wu Qintong frowned. “Miss, to be honest, your current mentality is not suitable for being an actress. We’re all smart people. I’m just being direct with you. You did successfully get the female lead role of ‘Sea Demon Princess’, but you didn’t choose to enter the entertainment industry to become famous. Your mind is not here at all. No matter the resources invested in you, it is of little use and as a manager, I’m rely on this job to support my family… I’m really sorry, I don’t want to get involved in the fight between you rich families.”

After Shi Qianduo heard this, she took out a check and handed it to Wu Qintong, “I know that sister Tongtong is working hard to support the family. After all, who would have thought that the Best Actor, Sui Haoxuan, would only give his son 2,000 yuan of child support every month? I know you’re under a lot of financial pressure, so this check is for the down payment.”

“You investigated me!” Wu Qintong did not even look at the check, and her expression suddenly turned ugly.

When Wu Qintong first became a manager, the first artist she signed a contract with was Sui Haoxuan. At that time, they were both newbies, and they had been working hard all the way. It could be said that she and Sui Haoxuan were mutually successful. He became the Best Actor, and she became a world-class manager.

Yet, what everyone did not know was that they had been married in secret, and a child was born after their divorce. Sui Haoxuan was unwilling to admit it, and the child support was given perfunctorily. Wu Qintong did not want to blow up the matter, so she could only accept it.

“Sister Tongtong, I don’t have any intention of threatening you. After all, if I want to use people, knowing the other party’s background is the most basic thing. Similarly, I’ll also tell you my background. I believe in your strength, and I ask you to believe in my ability! No matter what my initial goal was, I will still be a good artiste, because I need this achievement to make myself better!” Shi Qianduo’s tone was casual.

Wu Qintong kept frowning and did not say anything. As a manager under Star Media, how could she not know about Shi Qianduo’s situation? It was precisely because she knew that she was unwilling. However, she also understood that Shi Qianduo came prepared today. She had no right to refuse. She had been a manager for so many years and had met many people. Shi Qianduo was not an ordinary girl.

“I’ll have to think about it,” Wu Qintong said.

“I hope you won’t let me down.” Shi Qianduo laughed, her expression calm.

After the two of them parted ways, Shi Qianduo was about to go visit Jing Xing when He Yian called.

He Yian’s voice was cold. “Jing Xing has a high fever of 39 degrees. I’ll wait for you at the hospital.”
