The Whole Internet is Shipping Me with My Ex-Boyfriend-Chapter 392: Quan Jin Is Way Too Gullible (2)

Quan Jin glanced sideways, eyeing Xu Wei.

Xu Wei wasn’t afraid of his gaze and continued what she was saying earlier: "As a key executive in the company, let me speak frankly.

When it was first known that you were going to enter the entertainment industry, many companies were vying for your favor. With your red background backing you, isn’t it easy to become famous? You bring immense benefits to the company, and frankly, everyone is envious and covetous.

Although Yingcan Century is an industry leader, if we maintain a laid-back attitude, eventually, we’ll be overtaken by new waves, facing a downturn. So, we at Yingcan have fought hard for this win-win collaboration."

After finishing, Xu Wei still had a smile on her face.

She laughed and looked at Quan Jin, "Right, Quan Jin?"

The information in those words just now was overwhelming!

Quan Jin, being smart, naturally didn’t need Xu Wei to continue. Just from what was said, he understood.

Xu Wei was telling him that Gu Xueli approached him with ulterior motives, essentially sacrificing herself to lure him to Yingcan Century. Everything progressed as planned, and he did end up at Yingcan Century, forming a partnership beneficial to Yingcan, especially with his background as a boost.

Knowing this truth, Quan Jin should have been angry.

But he found he couldn’t get angry. If the scheme was like this, he was actually quite pleased.

Why pleased?

Because it showed she didn’t have a so-called wealthy benefactor; all her attempts to seduce him were for the company’s benefits. She was sacrificing for the company.

Just as Quan Jin was about to feel this woman was too easygoing, Xu Wei aptly added: "As a member of the company, she ought to dedicate herself to it. The battlefield of fame has always been like this. If you don’t dare to proceed, someone else will take your place. Cowardice and dread lead to continual elimination. Only people like her can stand on others’ shoulders and view the world below.

Xu Wei, smiling more intensely, added: "It can also be understood as Young Master Quan is bestowing a favor."

What a notion, bestowing a favor.

Quan Jin’s eyes grew colder, like a chilly, clear pond, and he silently watched Xu Wei smile.

There was no denying she spoke the truth. Even if it weren’t Gu Xueli, it’d be someone else. The rules remained unchanged.

From Quan Jin’s perspective, Gu Xueli could be seen as being greedy, or as someone who stops at nothing to achieve her goals. It’s just her way of surviving. For her to reach a point others start at, she has to pay thousands, millions of times more effort...

Initially, there was a slight sympathy for her, thinking her so scheming, what all was it for anyway.

On second thought, she is just trying to survive in this cruel reality, working her way up.

The more he thought, the more Quan Jin felt pity for her.

This little woman turned out to be beautiful, strong, yet miserable.

She must have endured much suffering to get here. Though she usually seemed indifferent and heartless, it must be because she lacked love and security.

She only treated him that way to complete the task, so she was hot and cold. Previously... he had even humiliated her like that.

Quan Jin couldn’t even imagine what she must have felt inside at that time.

She was such a good girl.

Sympathy and affection overflowed from Quan Jin as he conjured up a tragic backstory for Gu Xueli from Xu Wei’s words, beginning to feel more and more sorry for her.

He couldn’t humiliate her anymore; he had to treat her well, to offer her more security, and continue to be good to her.

Entrapped in his imaginings, Quan Jin failed to notice the wild, upward curve of Xu Wei’s lips.

If it weren’t for President Gu’s instructions to keep steady, she would have burst into laughter.

One had to admit, Young Master Quan was really too easy to deceive.

Could it really be that since he came from a place like the Quan Family, he was well-protected and hadn’t seen the harshness of the world??

No wonder, there might really be such a possibility.

...

Lunch was arranged by Xu Wei. Yi Shu was busy with several matters. Fortunately, Quan Jin cooperated well after knowing about ’Gu Xueli’s tragic background’ and obediently, without complaint, went to meet the acting class teacher.

The conversation went well, and they quickly arranged the schedule for Quan Jin’s acting class.

Quan Jin didn’t want to debut through talent shows, feeling they insulted him, so Yi Shu had to cross that plan off, having him directly act, starting from web dramas.
