Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
I am not a reacher; I will never rely on you to show off myself. If we meet, you are already world class. If I love you, I will surely break through hardships and stand with you; I will announce to the world that I am perfect enough to match with you. – Yun Xiangxiang.
[Lu Huanong V: It’s good to have you for the rest of my life. {Marriage Certificate JPG}]
[Ruo Feiqun V: Stay together @Lu Huanong V: Great to have you for the rest of my life. {Marriage Certificate JPG}]
[Huan Yu Century V: Hope that you both stay in love for eternity {❤️} @Lu Huanong @Ruo Feiqun.]
The three Weibo [1] posts were sent less than two minutes apart. When the news of Lu Huanong and Ruo Feiqun’s engagement was announced, it caused an uproar in the entertainment circle. Different to other celebrity couples in which their respective agencies were forced to intervene, these two got the approval of Huan Yu Century Entertainment.
Without scrolling to the bottom, Hua Xiangrong immediately knew that the comments below were blessings for their union. After all, the woman was twenty-eight years old while the man had already reached the age of marriage. Their fans were worried about their idol’s love life. Moreover, there had been rumors swirling around regarding the two of them for three months, so their fans had been anticipating it. And so once it was made official, their fans rushed to congratulate them no matter what.
“You lost,” The ward door was pushed open; Wen Lan stood blankly in front of Hua Xiangrong’s bed.
Small suit, white shirt, hip skirt, impervious stockings complete with five-inch high-heels. The standard female elite outfit in the workplace made her look rigid and serious.
Hua Xiangrong smiled casually, tossing her iPad on one side and folded her hands behind her head. She leaned her body backward, “Yeah, I have lost.”
“This is the company’s arrangement for you.” Wen Lan handed the documents that were under her armpit to Hua Xiangrong.
Hua Xiangrong didn’t pick up the document, but she shook her head gently, “Sister Lan, my contract with the company is going to expire soon.”
She was already thirty years old this year. She entered the company from the age of twenty and signed a ten-year contract. In this decade, she had enjoyed countless praises and received innumerable accolades before she had even reached her prime.
Ten years. She was not considered a legend in her journey growing from a little-known celebrity to a bona fide star, but she was already considered very lucky compared to others.
“You want to cancel the contract?” Wen Lan’s expression changed slightly. “I never thought you to be a weak woman who would be head over heels for a man, nor a woman who can’t afford to lose.”
Hua Xiangrong’s beauty matched the depth of her emotions. She was definitely not a person who couldn’t let go. Even if other people didn’t know, as the agent of both Hua Xiangrong and Lu Huanong, how could Wen Lan not know who actually lay deep in Ruo Feiqun’s heart?
A large portion of the company thought that Hua Xiangrong had lost to Lu Huanong. After all, Lu Huanong not only got the favor of the male idol, but she also succeeded in stepping up in terms of status.
But in reality?
“Sister Lan, I am tired and old, and this industry favors the young.” Hua Xiangrong smiled lightly.
Wen Lan stared at Hua Xiangrong’s face in surprise. How is 30 years old counted as old? With Hua Xiangrong current status, she could still be popular for at least ten more years!
However, after thoroughly looking at her face, although there was no real sign of age on her face, she no longer had the same youthful quality. Although she appeared to be in good vigor, she was getting skinny at a fast rate. The Hua Xiangrong who was once gorgeous and lively no longer existed, having now became softer with a more subtle charm instead.
A beautiful person was a beautiful person. Despite having such a serious illness, she could still let the other to be a pity of her beauty.
“You want to… quit?” Wen Lan was shocked by the hint of exhaustion expressed by Hua Xiangrong.
Closing her tired eyes, Hua Xiangrong nodded her head lightly.
The atmosphere in the ward was very depressed for a moment. Wen Lan looked at the pale and tired Hua Xiangrong. Thinking back to ten years ago, when Wen Lan first saw her, Hua Xiangrong was so stubborn and unyielding. Suddenly, they all had grown up. Wen Lan had transformed from the little-known girl to the Huan Yu Century Entertainment’s gold-tier agent. She also had four girls under her, two of whom went on to become Huan Yu Century Entertainment’s flagship celebrities.
She still had the same passion as she did in her nascent days, and she aspired to be Huan Yu Century Entertainment’s platinum-tier agent. However, the person whom she thought highly of decided to stop moving forward anymore.
After standing for a while, Wen Lan left. Nobody understood Hua Xiangrong better than her. Since Hua Xiangrong made her decision, no one could change it. If she were merely unsatisfied with the company, and she wanted to terminate the contract and switch another company, then the problem was still solvable. But if she wanted to quit entertainment altogether, then Wen Lan was helpless to do anything.
Once she quit, she wouldn’t need to be afraid of anything anymore….
The Huan Yu Century Entertainment Chairman’s special assistant gave a phone call to Hua Xiangrong and went to the hospital thrice. However, he did not change her mind. The general manager also personally came to visit, and finally, even the chairman called personally.
Hua Xiangrong could be stubborn to others, but Hua Xiangrong still decided to tell the truth to the chairman, He Zhen, “Chairman, I have advanced gastric cancer. I don’t want to waste time and money to struggle to live.”
He Zhen, who had been through rough experiences, paused a little after hearing it. After that, he let out a long sigh, “That’s too unfortunate…”
Such a pity. While Hua Xiangrong was not the most obedient celebrity, she is the most worry-free celebrity. She can do anything by herself, and she would never give the company a headache when trying to solve her problems, which also included this saga of ‘two women fighting for one husband’.
She was also the person with the most potential in the Huan Yu Century Entertainment…
“It’s not unfortunate. Everyone will have to go through this,” Hua Xiangrong said in a relaxed manner. “Chairman, I have never caused any trouble to the company for the past ten years. I ask you to let me be selfish just this once. Please forgive me.”
He Zhen was unable to say anything else, “Alright.”
He Zhen was very generous. On the afternoon of the same day, lawyers and special assistance, including Wen Lan came to the hospital. Although there was still a month, he canceled the contract in advance. No one was violating the contract, and they even gave Hua Xiangrong lots of benefits.
Hua Xiangrong received all these benefits which were then converted into cash. She contacted a trustworthy lawyer and asked him to deal with all the benefits. After her death, all the money was to be donated to people who needed help.
She was an orphan without any relatives. After being in the entertainment business for ten years, her net worth was definitely a lot. With He Zhen’s generous donation, her net worth had increased tremendously.
The process was completed quickly. When everyone on the internet was still congratulating Lu Huanong and Ruo Feiqun, Huan Yu Century Entertainment’s Weibo was updated.
[Huan Yu Century Entertainment V: Please take care of yourself. This place will always be your home. @Hua Xiangrong]
Because of the official announcement of the marriage between Ruo Feiqun and Lu Huanong, Huan Yu Century Entertainment’s Weibo received a large amount of attention from the fans. This news immediately stupefied all the fans who were still excited about the marriage. They did not understand the meaning behind this, and they were secretly speculating the reason behind Hua Xiangrong quitting.
[Pigs that Flew in the Sky V: Did Hua Xiangrong terminate the contract because she wants to vent her anger on the company??? ]
[Pretty Girls aren’t Cow V: If it were me, I would do so too. It is too embarrassing~~~~~]
[Holding Huanong: Sore loser, sore loser…]
[I am a Little Dew: If you’re so powerful, why don’t you jump off the building? Hehehe…]
There were lots of discussions going on, with Lu Huanong’s fans being particularly the most aggressive. At this time, Hua Xiangrong, who hadn’t updated her Weibo for three months, posted her last post.
[Hua Xiangrong V: There won’t be this person anymore, even if you want to search for her.]
