C16 Let Your Shen Siyi Apologize in front of Everyone!!
Su Ke was followed by a tall man, and when Faang Qin looked up, he immediately understood why their CEO was so furious. Miss Su, after breaking up with the CEO, had actually gone to see his arch-rival—Qin Liang, the young heir of Xinghuan.
In Faang Qin's mind, he imagined a dramatic love triangle unfolding and silently sympathized with his CEO.
"Hmph." Hsiang Sibai sat in his chair, seething internally as he saw Qin Liang arrive with Su Ke, making no effort to stand up and greet them.
"Is there some business matter you're here for, Young Master Qin?" Hsiang Sibai asked coldly.
Qin Liang glanced at Su Ke and replied, "No need for formalities, Young Master Hsiang. I'm just the driver today."
Hsiang Sibai was speechless with anger.
"So, it seems you two are living together now."
Hsiang Sibai was startled by the bitterness in his own voice.
Su Ke smiled brightly. "No need for you to worry about that."
"I've seen the posts online, and they're all false. We'll just file a lawsuit when the time comes," Su Ke said.
Hsiang Sibai laughed in exasperation at her naivety.
"My fault for spoiling you," he said, feigning indulgence, while casting a sidelong glance at Qin Liang.
"Do you know how long a lawsuit takes? By the time you get a verdict, your reputation will be long gone."
"The money I invested in you over three years is wasted, you know that?"
Su Ke felt a twinge of guilt. With Hsiang Sibai, she never had to worry about these things, and now she realized she had been a bit too naive.
She looked up at Qin Liang, and after seeing him nod, she turned to Hsiang Sibai and said, "You didn't call me over just to scold me, did you?"
Listen to that confidence.
Hsiang Sibai felt that all the calm he had cultivated over the years was about to be shattered by Su Ke.
"I've already arranged for the production team to issue a statement clarifying that this is just a rumor."
"I'll also have Siyi post a clarification on social media. Once that's done, you should share it."
"I'll handle the PR from here, so you don't need to worry about anything else."
With that, Hsiang Sibai pointed at Su Ke. "Now, get back to the set and continue filming."
Su Ke pouted but had to admit that this was the best solution for now.
"What about my scenes?" she bargained.
"We'll stick to the original script. You won't lose any of your parts."
"Well, isn't that considerate of your fiancée," Su Ke mocked. "But this whole mess wasn't my fault. I'm a victim here too, and my reputation is on the line. You can't just expect me to let it go."
Hsiang Sibai glanced at Su Ke, who was ready to make outrageous demands, and after a moment of calm, he spoke.
"So, what do you want?"
"For me to agree, there are two conditions," Su Ke said, holding up two fingers.
"First, I want to find out who's behind this and have them apologize to me publicly."
"Second, when my contract with Shengbai expires, I won't renew it."
Su Ke never expected Hsiang Sibai to make such a request.
His tone was extremely displeased: "Shengbai has been grooming you for three years, and now you're telling me you're not renewing your contract?"
"I'm thinking of you."
Su Ke leaned closer to Hsiang Sibai, letting him see the malice in her eyes. "If I don't leave, your fiancée might not be too happy about it."
"Don't even think about those two conditions," Hsiang Sibai replied.
"Oh?"
Su Ke feigned confusion. "You're not agreeing to the first condition either? Could it be that you already know who's been causing trouble behind the scenes?"
"Su Ke, I advise you to stop pushing it!"
The veins on Hsiang Sibai's forehead bulged. He had already investigated everything thoroughly before Su Ke arrived.
Su Ke chuckled, Hsiang Sibai's reaction confirming the answer she had in her mind.
"Hsiang Sibai, you don't need to say it; I already know."
"Now, you can agree to just one of these conditions."
"Either you let me go, or..."
"Have your Shen Siyi apologize to me in public!"
Before she finished speaking, someone pushed the door open.
"Sibai... am I interrupting?"
