Chapter 435: Chapter 434 What Are Brains For?
Lu Jinyang didn’t even look in the direction Xiao Qing pointed, but bent down to scoop her up in a bridal carry and entered the room, leaving behind Tan Biyang and Ning Qian with utterly astonished faces.
Ning Qian had a bit more self-awareness compared to Tan Biyang, so when they were out of sight, she averted her gaze, gently tugging at Tan Biyang’s sleeve, "Biyang, let’s go."
Suddenly, Tan Biyang spun around, flinging Ning Qian’s hand away with a jerk, "Go? Where can we possibly go now?"
Ning Qian was frightened by Tan Biyang’s reaction, her eyes filled with incredulity as she looked at Tan Biyang, "What’s wrong with you?"
Tan Biyang remained silent.
If she hadn’t heard wrong just now, the agent said she had been dismissed by the company, on the grounds of improper personal conduct and immodesty.
Dismissed...
Actually dismissed...
She, the distinguished Actress, was being dismissed by the company - how could she possibly accept this reality!
At this moment, Ning Qian’s phone also began to ring, and she answered it after a glance at the screen.
Afterwards, her expression became even more shocked than Tan Biyang’s had been a moment earlier.
The instant Ning Qian’s phone rang, Tan Biyang looked up slightly at her, and upon seeing her expression, Tan Biyang actually felt a sense of relief wash over her own heart.
Ning Qian hung up the phone, her eyes dazed as she turned to look at Tan Biyang, "Biyang, I... I’ve been dismissed by the company..."
Tan Biyang seemed not at all surprised, "And the reason?"
"Indecent lifestyle, seriously affecting other artists."
Tan Biyang was silent for a moment, then said, "I just got a call saying I’ve been dismissed too."
The two looked at each other, both going silent.
After an unknown period of time, Tan Biyang suddenly said, "I can’t believe Xiao Qing actually has the power to make me leave New City Entertainment. But it’s fine to leave New City Entertainment - we can try our luck with Emperor."
Tan Biyang had long contemplated leaving New City for Emperor, but her multiple concerns held her back; one was her status as the domestic Actress, another was that Si Nanchen was still the Chairman of New City, and she still harbored a sliver of hope.
Now, with her hopes shattered, she had nothing left to cling to.
"But Emperor’s threshold is so high, how do we get in?"
Tan Biyang replied irritably, "What do you think brains are for? Think of a way."
"Oh."
"Let’s go back. We need to come up with a plan quickly..."
The two walked into the elevator, and as the elevator doors closed, the adjacent elevator doors opened.
A man and a woman walked out one after the other, both looking tense.
They walked to the door of Tan Biyang’s room and saw that the door was opened; they exchanged glances, seeing the surprise in each other’s eyes.
"Wait here for me, I’ll go in and check," the woman said.
After taking just a step, she was gripped by a strong, powerful hand. Looking back puzzled, she heard the man’s deep, pleasant voice, "Ning Mo, do you know kung fu?"
Ning Mo shook her head.
The man let go of her hand, striding forward into the room with long legs.
Anxious, Ning Mo stood at the doorway, straining to listen to the sounds inside, but unable to hear anything. A thought flashed through her mind and without thinking she rushed in, only to run into a wall of flesh after a few steps.
In a panic, she looked up, ready to fight, but saw Yang Zi clutching his chest in pain.
"Yang Zi, what’s wrong with you? Are you okay?"
Yang Zi lacked even the strength to glare at her, pressing hard on his chest as he walked out.
Ning Mo was almost frantic with worry, no matter what she asked he wouldn’t respond; how was she to know what had happened to him.
