Rebirth of the Cannon Fodder in the Entertainment Circle

Chapter 117 - 117 117 Dont Regret

?Chapter 117: Chapter 117: Don’t Regret Chapter 117: Chapter 117: Don’t Regret Luo Ning had told Lu Xun everything about the Liu Family and what Han Lie had said about the Evil Magician.

For some reason, she always felt an indescribable sense of trust towards Lu Xun.

Moreover, the matter itself involved special departments, so it was necessary for her to share any useful information she had.

Lu Xun had been aware of the tasks assigned to Han Lie and his group. Originally, this matter was unrelated to him as it was assigned by the Deputy Minister.

But now that it involved Luo Ning, he had no choice but to intervene.

“I will inform Han Lie and the others about the Liu Family and the Witch clue. I’ll tell them to be careful during the capture, and I’ll update you with any developments,”
Luo Ning said, “Okay, if they need any more help, they can come to me.”

“Alright!” Lu Xun nodded.

In the next two days, Luo Ning and Lu Xun stayed in the practice room, rehearsing with the trainees.

The performance was approaching quickly, and the atmosphere among the trainees was tense.

Luo Ning’s group was doing okay; everyone was satisfied with the outcome of their rehearsals.

Ji Xinghang and Su Qinglan, Wei Yao, and Chai Jing’s groups were also doing well in rehearsals.

Only Bo Xiangxiang and Ni Xinxuan’s group kept encountering problems.

It wasn’t that Ni Xinxuan was deliberately causing trouble, as she knew how important the performance was for the trainees to advance, so she just targeted Bo Xiangxiang with some sarcasm without hindering the rehearsal process.

She was planning to deal with Bo Xiangxiang in the next live broadcast.

The problems mainly arose because Bo Xiangxiang wanted to sing and dance in the center, which Ni Xinxuan naturally wouldn’t agree to, hence the disagreement.

Bo Xiangxiang hadn’t established a good characterization in the last two episodes and had done some disgusting things, which caused, apart from her sycophants, other trainees to be somewhat critical of her.

Ni Xinxuan proposed letting the trainees take the center position, with the two guests mainly assisting, and everyone voted in favor.

This irritated Bo Xiangxiang greatly, leading to some perfunctory cooperation during rehearsals, which resulted in less than ideal outcomes.

Therefore, Bo Xiangxiang called Yuan Hanyi privately to complain and express her grievances.

Although she was introduced to Chenxing Entertainment by Liu Shaoxian, having been assigned to Chenxing’s top agent, Pan Yujie, and receiving decent resources, it was all thanks to Yuan Hanyi.

Yet, Liu Shaoxian was still unaware of her private dealings with Yuan Hanyi.

Hearing Bo Xiangxiang’s complaints and grievances made Yuan Hanyi slightly resentful towards Ni Xinxuan.

Originally, he felt somewhat guilty towards Ni Xinxuan, since it was he who had first lost control and fallen for Bo Xiangxiang, and no longer wanted to fulfill the marriage arrangement.

He planned to propose dissolving their engagement after completing a joint project between their families, not expecting her to go after Bo Xiangxiang.

This crossed his line, so he consoled Bo Xiangxiang and then directly instructed his company’s staff to pressure the director about replacing someone.

In the past, the director wouldn’t dare offend the president of Chenxing Entertainment, but now, with Lu backing him up, he wasn’t afraid.

Given a choice between offending Yuan Hanyi and Lu Xun, he would definitely choose the former.

Even without knowing Lu Xun’s real background, he had heard bits and pieces, undoubtedly none of which Yuan Hanyi could compare to.

Besides, Ni Xinxuan’s targeting Bo Xiangxiang was already generating topics and heat—it would be foolish to replace someone.

He was just that pragmatic.

Yuan Hanyi hadn’t expected the director to disrespect him, and then he heard from his secretary that Lu Xun had intervened in the replacement matter, so he held back his anger instead of creating trouble.

Then he took the initiative to invite Ni Xinxuan to dinner.

When he arrived at the restaurant’s private room, Ni Xinxuan was already there.

“You’re here!” Ni Xinxuan poured him a glass of wine.

Yuan Hanyi smiled, “Yes, let’s order.”

Both of them were eating and chatting casually as they used to.

Yuan Hanyi had no appetite and only ate a little before putting down his chopsticks.

“Xinxuan, I have something I want to talk to you about.”

Ni Xinxuan put down her chopsticks, wiped her mouth with a napkin, and then slowly asked, “What is it?”

Yuan Hanyi didn’t beat around the bush. “Can you voluntarily quit the variety show you’re currently participating in?”

Ni Xinxuan was always clever. “You might as well just say you want me to stop picking on Bo Xiangxiang.”

She looked at Yuan Hanyi with a hint of coldness. “Don’t tell me you’re serious about Bo Xiangxiang.”

They had been engaged from a young age, and she had always regarded him as her husband.

She had truly fallen in love with this man.

Since she accidentally found out that he had secretly dined with Bo Xiangxiang a few times and they seemed very close, she was furious.

She wanted to see what Bo Xiangxiang was really like, daring to seduce her man; she had to be ready to face her revenge.

But unexpectedly, Yuan Hanyi had come to her to step aside for Bo Xiangxiang.

This was unprecedented.

Yuan Hanyi took a deep breath. “I’m sorry, but I have indeed fallen for her.”

Ni Xinxuan was dumbfounded. “What do you mean?”

“I think we’re not suitable, so let’s call off the engagement,” Yuan Hanyi didn’t want Bo Xiangxiang to suffer, so he needed to break off the engagement with Ni Xinxuan ahead of time.

The collaboration between the two companies was coming to an end, and he wasn’t afraid of the Ni Family’s reaction.

Moreover, the arrangements he had made in the Ni Family in the past two years were not in vain.

Ni Xinxuan couldn’t believe what she was hearing. “You want to end our engagement for such a ‘white lotus’?”

“Our many years of relationship can’t even compare to such a woman who can’t be presented proudly?” She was somewhat unable to accept it.

Hearing her say that, Yuan Hanyi’s face grew colder. “In my eyes, Xiangxiang is lovely; I hope you don’t malign her.”

“I also hope you won’t pick on her anymore, after all, I pursued her first.” He didn’t know why, but from the moment he saw Bo Xiangxiang, he couldn’t resist being attracted.

He always felt she was the one meant for him by fate.

After spending time together, his fondness for Bo Xiangxiang deepened.

Especially in that matter—Bo Xiangxiang could offer him a pleasure he had never experienced before, making him irresistibly enchanted.

This was something Ni Xinxuan did not have, so he could only apologize to her.

He believed marriage should be with someone you love to be happy, as it was a lifelong affair.

He had already secured his place as the heir of the Yuan Family, so he could bear the consequences of breaking off the engagement.

And since Ni Xinxuan loved him so much, he believed she wouldn’t make things too difficult for him.

Ni Xinxuan’s eyes reddened instantly; she couldn’t believe Yuan Hanyi would abandon her for Bo Xiangxiang.

Having loved him for so many years, letting go felt as painful as cutting into her flesh.

But her dignity wouldn’t allow her to lower her head.

Looking at the face she had once deeply loved and yet could no longer hide his scumminess, Ni Xinxuan couldn’t help but throw her wine glass at him.

“Yuan Hanyi, go ahead and break off the engagement, but don’t you regret it,” she ground her teeth, holding back her tears.

Yuan Hanyi didn’t expect Ni Xinxuan to splash wine on him and wiped his face with a napkin, his expression full of anger. “You’re crazy!”

“Don’t worry, I will definitely not regret it.”

Still, Bo Xiangxiang was gentle and considerate, not at all like Ni Xinxuan who had such a bad temper; he was right to break off the engagement.
