Chapter 506: Fu Huai’an Had Already Arrived
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Miss Xia was the producer of “A Sunday Date.” Now that the talk show host… and the producer had been changed, would this program still be well-received?
When Weng Lin was about to take over the program, Miss Xia pulled a stunt like this on her, so naturally, she didn’t feel good about it. She held back her temper as she tried to persuade Miss Xia to stay, but Miss Xia was unexpectedly resolute in her decision to leave.
“In the future, what plans does Fang Yan have for you?” Miss Xia asked Lin Nuan, not intending to continue haggling with Weng Lin.
Miss Xia had already sent Lin Nuan’s contract with the station to Fang Yan, who had also consulted a lawyer; Lin Nuan could leave so long as she paid the compensation sum for breach of contract. There were plenty of other stations that were eager to invite Lin Nuan over, so it was nothing really.
“I’ll do as Ms. Fang says.”
Miss Xia nodded and continued to pack up her stuff with her head lowered.
Lin Nuan saw that there was a storage box on Miss Xia’s office chair. She was putting the photos and the bonsai on her desk into the box. Weng Lin was agitatedly clicking the back of a pen; the sound of the pen clicking was speedy and messy, just like Weng Lin’s feelings at that moment.
“Miss Xia, you…” Lin Nuan furrowed her brows, asking even though she had seen it herself.
“I tendered my resignation…”
Weng Lin felt even more vexed when she heard this.
Lin Nuan appeared surprised, mouth gaping slightly open as she gazed at Miss Xia.
Knowing what Lin Nuan was about to say, Miss Xia spoke before Lin Nuan did, saying, “Nothing to do with this matter. I have set up a company with a friend elsewhere. You know about this…”
Miss Xia put a book into the box, then said, “I want to become a boss and stop slaving away for Haicheng TV Station…”
Miss Xia took out three envelopes from the drawer. The one on the top was a letter of notification that Haicheng TV Station was giving to Lin Nuan, while the other two were invitations for Lin Nuan from other tv stations.
Weng Lin placed the pen back into the pen holder. “Miss Xia, we’ve been friends for so many years. I’m only asking you to stay for another two months. If you insist on leaving after two months, I won’t stop you. Just give me two months’ time, will you?”
Based on Weng Lin’s understanding of Miss Xia, she wouldn’t believe that Miss Xia’s resignation had nothing to do with this matter.
Miss Xia had a sense of justice in her bones. All these years, when it came to her programs, Miss Xia was never one to bend her principles; she would rather step away from the program than have it turn to ruin in her hands.
Lin Nuan received the letters from Miss Xia’s hands. When she saw the two letters underneath, she gazed up at Miss Xia.
“I’m on friendly terms with the presidents of these two stations. There’s another one that’s willing to fork out the compensation sum on your behalf. Do consider it!”
Miss Xia didn’t bother with Weng Lin, making her all the madder. When she needed Miss Xia the most, the latter wasn’t willing to extend her a helping hand. Weng Lin was a prideful person; she refused to continue pleading with Miss Xia in Lin Nuan’s presence, and so she stormed out of Miss Xia’s office, slamming the door behind her as she left.
After Weng Lin left, Miss Xia said to Lin Nuan, “Don’t blame Weng Lin. She suffered a great blow and hasn’t managed to recover from it yet…”
“I don’t blame her!” Lin Nuan smiled, but she couldn’t help feeling uncomfortable.
Lin Nuan didn’t know if this matter had arisen because of Weng Lin or because Chu Xun wanted to suppress her…
Miss Xia gazed at Lin Nuan. Setting her little box down on the office desk, she said, “Lin Nuan, I’m preparing to go to Jincheng TV Station, do you want to come with me?”
Lin Nuan looked up at Miss Xia in shock, hadn’t she said she was going to become her own boss?
“Money tempts one’s heart. Jincheng TV Station has extended a lucrative offer to me, so I intend to take these two months off and head over there to take a look. If you’re keen, I can tailor a program just for you!”
Miss Xia only said this much and nothing else. She didn’t say the same thing when Weng Lin was around, so her intentions were apparent.
Lin Nuan nodded. “When I’ve settled things with Haicheng TV Station, I’ll think about my subsequent plans.”
Miss Xia nodded. “No hurry. I still need to take a break now. Of course, if you could finalize your decision in these two months, that’d be for the best. To put it frankly, if you’re willing to go over with me, I’d have chips in my hands and be able to negotiate a better income with Jincheng TV Station! Of course… you’d have more bargaining power too when you negotiate your salary.”
Miss Xia had always spoken her mind and didn’t choose to play the emotion card with Lin Nuan. Instead, she made it clear that Lin Nuan could be a useful chip in her hands in terms of negotiating a higher salary.
This was a mutually beneficial deal; it just depended on Lin Nuan’s decision.
Lin Nuan nodded. Just then, Fang Yan called; it wasn’t good news. For some reason, after AG had confirmed the shooting time for the commercial this morning, in the afternoon, they had called to inform Fang Yan that the shooting might need to be postponed. If it exceeded the time stated in the contract, AG was willing to pay compensation for breach of contract. By this, they meant that if it exceeded the date stipulated in the contract, and if Lin Nuan had yet to receive notification for the shooting by then, she wouldn’t need to shoot the commercial.
“First it was your removal from ‘A Sunday Date,’ next it was a cancellation of the endorsement contract. I feel that someone is out to make trouble for you. Don’t fret about this matter. I’ll take care of it. You just rest at home these few days, count on me for everything else!”
All these years, Fang Yan had led many celestial level celebrities under her wings, so she wasn’t one to be trifled with. She could sense that something was wrong when something did happen.
Lin Nuan felt anxious for some reason; if Haicheng TV Station was Chu Xun’s doing, then what about AG?
Even if Chu Xun’s family had business dealings with AG, Lin Nuan didn’t believe Chu Xun’s family had that great an influence.
But Fang Yan wasn’t one to make wild guesses out of nowhere, so for her to say something like this… there was a high likelihood that there truly was someone making problems for Lin Nuan.
Lin Nuan and Miss Xia were seated in the office for a long time, until Uncle Hu called and informed her he had reached the building. Lin Nuan then said a simple farewell to Miss Xia and didn’t say much else.
…
Everything seemed to be happening at once. Just as Lin Nuan got out of the elevator, before she even stepped out of the building, she received a call from the kindergarten, notifying her that Tuan Tuan had gotten injured from fighting.
The moment she heard that Tuan Tuan was injured, Lin Nuan tensed up. Once she got outside the building and saw Uncle Hu’s car, she frantically instructed Uncle Hu, “Uncle Hu, go to Tuan Tuan’s kindergarten!”
By the time Lin Nuan got there, Fu Huai’an had already arrived.
Inside the teacher’s office, the collar of Fu Huai’an’s suit was unbuttoned. He had one hand gripping onto his phone. Whether it was because of the phone, or because Tuan Tuan had gotten into a fight, there was a subtle anger in his gaze; those deep and dark eyes were fixated on the mud monkey-like Tuan Tuan standing before him.
Tuan Tuan lowered his head and stared at his feet, his eyes a little reddened. He appeared a little upset, his tiny hands tightly gripping onto the sides of his uniform.
Four kids were standing behind Tuan Tuan, and they all looked like mud monkeys like him.
Tuan Tuan’s injury didn’t appear to be serious, allowing Lin Nuan to heave a sigh of relief.
