Daddy CEO's Beloved Wife-Chapter 28 Aren’t I Brilliant?

Chairman Yi's face darkened even more after he heard her words. No one knows how much he got from dragging her name all over the industry and using it to gain resources from different directors, endorsement, and companies. Even the newbies who joined the Star Studios only came there because Ran Xueyi was part of their agency.

Ran Xueyi raised her eyebrows. "Well?"

Chairman Yi's senses returned. His expression turned worse every second, but he soon calmed down before he said, "Ran Xueyi... It's not my fault that your name is known by everyone in the country. After all, you were the top actress. But that doesn't validate your claims that I am using your name to get more money."

"Chairman Yi..." Ran Xueyi slammed her palms against the surface of the table. "Talk less nonsense. Who do you think will believe that when my contract clearly stated that I am no longer one of your artists. Besides, for 3 years... you've made different promotional stuff that includes my name on it. Do you want to exchange evidence?"

After her contract with Star Studios ended, Ran Xueyi was too preoccupied with the finalization of her engagement party with Yang Baihua which should have been aired by multiple broadcasting news reporters. Unfortunately, that time there was a typhoon and announcing her engagement was not a good idea.

Thus, she told everyone to hold the announcement and let the engagement just be an oral announcement. Soon the words of her engagement were spread widely in high society. But the public had little idea of this. 𝘧r𝑒𝘦𝒘𝘦𝙗ｎovel.𝐜o𝒎

That's how she completely forgot about her involvement with Star Studios. But who would have thought that a few months later after that day, she would see her name on magazines, billboards, bulletin boards, and commercials. Even her name was tagged on different artists and directors associated with Star Studios.

Ran Xueyi only knew about it recently when she finally opened her Weibo account and searched her name.

Chairman Yi wiped away a sweat that dripped on his forehead. He explained, "Let's not be like this, Ran Xueyi. After all, we've been through a lot of things and I even turned you into a top actress."

Ran Xueyi pulled back as if she was scalded, "I became a top actress through my acting skills. Even Hollywood directors told me that my skill is very outstanding. Don't put too much credit onto yourself. It's embarrassing."

Ran Xueyi was brutal in her words and didn't acknowledge any of his claims. Rather, there was no need to claim any of his words as they were untrue.

Chairman Yi swallowed a belly of bitter soup as Ran Xueyi fired at him nonstop.

He couldn't refute her words since they were the most sensible thing he had heard and all of it was true.

When Ran Xueyi first became a child actress, Chairman Yi didn't think her talent in acting was noteworthy since he wasn't a director and was not much of a drama fanatic. So, he didn't know what kind of treasure she was until she received the Best Child Actress award.

And even before she got her first award, Chairman Yi wanted to suppress her over his niece who was a child actress too. But after seeing that she was worth more than his niece and even more, he decided to support her verbally.

However, all the resources that Ran Xueyi got was all due to her hard work.

So, no one has the right to take any credit from her.

Chairman Yi didn't think his day would be like this. He didn't think that some debt collectors were still lurking around him and that debt collector turned out to be the top actress of the century, Ran Xueyi!

If he had known that she would come here as a debt collector today, he would probably take a leave and come again when she's not there.

? Ran Xueyi glanced at her watch and sighed. "Chairman Yi, I don't have all the time today and don't want to waste my time coming here. It's either we finish our talk here or we can meet again with our lawyers next. Or maybe, we can meet before the judge and inside the court. That way, you will have the same popularity as I did 5 years ago."

Chairman Yi fell silent again.

He didn't know what he could say against her as everything was all laid bare right before his eyes.

The next moment, he took out a cheque. He took a pen from the pen holder and was about to write a string of numbers when a hand enclosed his own and took away the pen from him.

Chairman Yi raised his head, "What are you doing?"

"Don't blindly put a measly sum in there. I think we should calculate things first before putting a price." Ran Xueyi twirled the pen between her index and middle finger.

Chairman Yi frowned.

"Now, don't frown just yet. We still haven't come to a conclusion and you haven't heard everything just yet." Ran Xueyi snorted before smiling.

She reached for a clean piece of bond paper and wrote some words and numbers there as well as the dates. After a while, she slipped the paper before Chairman Yi and said, "This is everything that has my name on it. I priced all of them in the order of how much it was worth at that time."

Chairman Yi was not pleased by her intentions. He gritted his head before looking down. Then, he sucked a mouthful of cold air as soon as his eyes fell on the total amount written at the bottom part of the back of the paper.

"Twen...twenty... Twenty million dollars?!" Chairman Yi almost sprang out of his chair.

Ran Xueyi wasn't as startled as he was as she nodded her head. "That's right. Twenty million dollars. From brand deals, commercials, magazines, and even mentioning my names in dramas, movies, and variety shows just to raise the heat it will receive from my fans alone. I also included the Weibo pages that have my name on it that Star Studios posted. Aren't I brilliant at remembering all of them, Chairman Yi?"

'Bang!'

A fist slammed on the desk.

Chairman Yi glared at her while pointing a finger at her. He shouted, "Ran Xueyi! Don't be too much!"
