The Rebirth Of A Fashion Mogul

Chapter 20 - Fired? Aunt Shi Quits!

>>>Li Zen Modeling Agency>>>

In the Directors Office of Li Zen a girl cried as if she had undergone the greatest injustice.

"Xiao Gui... what's wrong?"Director Li paced anxiously and tried to comfort his distraught daughter.

Le Dawei , Li Gui's agent came forward and tried to explain the situation. Of course there was a lot of embellishment on his side of the story. He mentioned that Song Xia and Li Gui swapped dresses and that the photographer praised Song Xia while being harsh towards Li Gui. When Li Gui stood up for herself she was greatly insulted and the coordinator of the Photoshoot from 16 Heart's threatened her and told them to get off the premises.

"Ha! How dare they do this to my daughter!I will make that little model from 99 Scenes pay. Don't worry Xiao Gui, daddy will take revenge for you." He smiled at his daughter while an evil glint flashed in his eyes.

It was obvious now where Li Gui's character came from ; why she was so spoilt and disrespectful.She had never had an ounce of discipline in her life. Nor could she distinguish between right or wrong because her father had always defended her actions.

Li Xiaoping wasn't a fool - of course he knew his daughter was haughty and used to getting her own way.However, he didn't care as long she was happy .Why should he care about what other people think?

16 Heart's was a second tier magazine affiliated with Sweet Heart Apparel so he couldn't go against it. Mingzhu was part of Shen Industies which was a bigger giant that he couldn't deal with only leaving 99 Scenes to tackle.

It was an insignificant company so he was sure that if he gave them some benefits the little model will easily be fired.

"Le Dawei , what were you doing?Counting pennies when they insulted Xiao Gui! If this happens again there is no need to show your face at Li Zen!"He yelled at the agent who was sitting on the couch.

>>>99 Scenes Office>>>

" Agent Shi, that girl has offended Li Zen! We cannot afford to keep her. No... what are you saying .How can you resign?"

Huang An was a female agent who was always second best compared to Shi Qi.

Of course ,wanting to be the best female agent came with benefits and more resources so Huang An wanted Shi Qi's position. In order to to climb the corporate ladders she had taken to sleeping with the boss a who was more than two decades older than her.

Director Tou slammed the phone down in frustration.Shi Qi , was the top female agent in 99 Scenes. She was excellent at her job and he didn't want to loose her. On the other hand ,he had already accepted Li Zen's benefits so he couldn't back out of the deal.He still needed to fire Song Xia.

Now ,Shi Qi threatened to resign if Song Xia was fired the whole situation maddening.

Taking this as the opportunity she had been waiting for Huang An walked around the chair

and sat on Tou Biming's ŀȧp.

Imagine a curvy, women in her early thirties sitting on a man old enough to be her father.Then Huang An sent him a seductive look before taking on a righteous tone.

"Big Brother Ming , that Shi Qi is so full of herself! I know she has a personal connection with that model and put off so much company work for her sake. Now she is jeopardizing the

company and offending Li Zen for some unknown model."

The convincing way that she spoke touched his heart.Tou Hou honestly believed she was thinking about him and the company's wellbeing.

She snorted and narrowed her eyes in a pompous manner ,"Since she's so stubborn let her quit!She'll come back crawling to her us soon enough!"

Huang An persisted with her efforts and after with some pillow talk Director Tou agreed.

Song Xia sat with Shi Qi in the living room and told her what Director Tou had decorated.Shi Qi saw Song Xia's remorseful look and simply said.

"Xiao Xia, none of this was your fault. It was Li Zen who put pressure on 99 Agency and they decided to accept benefits from them instead of standing up for what was right. "

Shi Qi sighed,"Aunt, is also to be blamed for being blind. I gave 5 years to a company that would give me up for better resources."

She got rid of her negative mindset and looked Song Xia directly in the eyes." Song Xia, I am both your aunt and your agent !Today, we won't forget what happened but instead we shall make 99 Scenes regret their decision."

Song Xia took Shi Qi's hand and promised."Aunt , they will definitely regret the day they decided to abandon us!"

+++

Huang An ,spoke respectfully to one of Huxia's lead photographer's ȧssistant ," Ms .Fu, Shi Qi and Song Xia are no longer part of our agency.We have plenty of other talented models. I'm sure Master Cao would like one of them."

Fu Yingtai cut her off and said," We are only interested in Song Xia otherwise there is no purpose in any further collaboration with 99 Scenes. Good day."

One the call ended Huang An angrily pushed everything of her desk . "Shi Qi " she cursed. She was sure that Shi Qi knew that Master Cao knew wanted to collaborate with Song Xia but she purposefully didn't tell them.Hopefully , Director Tou didn't find out or he will punish her.

Cheung Mai, Shi Qi's previous secretary and long time friend would have left with her if she didn't desperately need her job to care for her ill mother. Now she was appointed Huang An secretary as she had become the top female agent.

Her loyalties lay with Shi Qi and she couldn't tolerate Huang An anymore.The woman pushed all her appointments, made scathing remarks and had bad work ethic. Ever since Shi Qi left she had to deal with many models' complaints, clients criticism and Huang An 's horrific behavior.Huang An even openly flatulent she was sleeping with the Director and had gotten Shi Qi fired.She even warned them not to offend her or they would without a job.As it was a proud thing to be an old, married man's mistress.

So Cheung Mai has no reservation calling back Master Cao's ȧssistant.

"Hello " Fu Yingtai answered.

"Hello , I'm a secretary from 99 Scenes Modeling Agency.I have Agent Shi 's and Song Xia 's contact information."She spoke a bit nervously as she didn't want to be caught. Cheung Mai didn't mind being fired but was waiting for her new job offer to be confirmed first.

Fu Yingtai was a bit startled but quickly asked for the contact information before thanking the other women.

"Thank you ..You have been a great help to me today."
