Chapter 1414: Chapter 1415: As Cowardly as a Dog

Gu Zekai’s arrogance was suddenly suppressed, he clumsily averted his eyes and didn’t dare to look at his agent’s angry face, while quietly explaining, “I… I didn’t expect things to turn out this way either.”

“Humph! You didn’t expect? Of course you didn’t, your mind was only filled with thoughts of women, nothing else.”

He was scolded harshly but didn’t dare to talk back, his handsome face mixed with shame and helplessness, anxiously grabbed the agent’s wrist, pleading, “K, what should I do now, help me. I know I was wrong. If the news keeps fermenting, I’m done! I am someone you groomed, if I’m done for, it won’t look good on you either! Please, help me, if you help me this time, I will repay you when I succeed, I will always remember your kindness, I will work like an ox and horse for you in the future!”

“Dad doesn’t care about your offer to work like an ox and horse!” K swung him away, after a cold laugh fueled by extreme anger, he quickly calmed down. No matter how angry he was, wanting to kill the embroidered pillow before him, he had to admit Gu Zekai was right about one thing—the people in the circle all knew Gu Zekai was the artist he managed, if Gu Zekai got taken down, it meant he was outdone by others as well. This would affect his own reputation, so even for his own sake, he had to think of a way to save this worthless guy once!

But with things having developed to this state, with the other party’s tactics being so swift and precise, how to reverse the public opinion became a big problem.

K paced restlessly around the room, the floor was full of fragments from things Gu Zekai had smashed in his tantrum; he even accidentally stepped on them, getting a shard stuck in his foot, which made him glare fiercely at the man who is always causing more trouble than solving!

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got, and he couldn’t help but curse again, “Really a piece of trash, even such a good situation you managed to screw up, you deserve not to be popular!”

The corners of Gu Zekai’s forehead bulged with vexation, his bad temper nearly acted up again. Fortunately, he was clear that the only person he could rely on was his agent; even if he was dissatisfied inside, he could only suppress it temporarily. With no dignity, he lowered his posture and begged, “…I really know I was wrong, I was momentarily blinded and fell into someone else’s trap. K, please help me, I don’t want to quit the industry, please give me another chance.”

“Don’t make noise here, you’re giving me a headache. Quacking like a duck! Before the incident, you never took things seriously, and now when trouble arises, all you do is make noise!”

“I’m really at my wit’s end, I don’t know what to do anymore.”

“…Do you think I know what to do?!”

K took a deep breath, swatted his hand away again, not bothering with him anymore, and furrowed his brow, thinking of a solution…

The agent and artist relationship is collaborative; the artist is responsible for maintaining a perfect image in front of cameras and fans, while the agent is responsible for cleaning up the mess when the artist’s image takes a blow. They complement each other in a mutually beneficial relationship. He had chosen Gu Zekai for his good looks among other new artists in the company, investing quite a lot of money and effort in the early stage. Even though he felt like kicking this useless trash to death, he still had to pull him up one more time. He asked, “Besides those things recorded, did you say any other dangerous things?”

Gu Zekai shook his head firmly, saying, “No, that was all. That night I didn’t mean to say those things, it was all Chen Anchen, messing around with some truth or dare game, and then, like his brain had a short circuit, kept on asking me if I like men. Jiang Zixuan was also there, I couldn’t possibly say I liked men.”
