152: Men have to fight for it!

Grand Cloud Sky Hotel.

Cheng Yun, who had just finished checking in, was stunned to see Chen Qiu get into a hotel car, preparing to leave.

After they left the cinema earlier, Chen Qiu had brought her to this nearby hotel and booked a room for her.

Having spent several years struggling at the bottom of the entertainment industry, she naturally understood what this implied.

Forget about booking a room; the moment Chen Qiu said he was willing to promote her, she would have been willing to do anything he asked, no matter how degrading.

But she never expected that this room was purely for her alone!

After checking her in, Chen Qiu had the hotel manager drive him home.

At this moment, what surfaced in Cheng Yun's heart wasn't relief, but panic!

In her mind, the contract Chen Qiu promised her involved resources for a B-list celebrity!

If the only price was five years of unpaid labor, the deal was unimaginably generous!

In Cheng Yun's eyes, she was completely unworthy of such a contract!

What Chen Qiu valued definitely wasn't just five years of free work!

The only value she seemed to have for him was her decent body.

So, in her heart, Cheng Yun had even prepared herself to be Chen Qiu's plaything for the next five years.

But she never imagined that Chen Qiu wouldn't even touch her.

This meant that, to Chen Qiu, she had no value at all!

In the entertainment industry, a person without value is worth less than a dog and can be discarded at any time.

Realizing this, Cheng Yun instantly fell into a state of panic.

Before Chen Qiu could get into the car, she jogged over to catch up and grabbed his hand.

Her tone was almost one of humble pleading.

"Mr. Chen, is there something about me that dissatisfies you?"

"I can endure whatever you want to do."

"Whatever I don't know, I can learn..."

Chen Qiu was a bit dumbfounded as she held him back.

Seeing Cheng Yun's humble and fawning gaze, like a kitten about to be abandoned, Chen Qiu felt helpless.

He instantly realized that after years of struggling in the entertainment industry, Cheng Yun's values had been completely distorted.

To her, only a sexual transaction could provide a sense of security.

"Cheng Yun, the only thing you need to worry about right now is brushing up on your dance fundamentals and practicing like your life depends on it before your debut!"

"If the resources invested in you don't yield enough of a return after you debut, don't blame me for being ruthless then."

Chen Qiu spoke coldly.

Hearing these words, instead of being angry, Cheng Yun breathed a soft sigh of relief.

"I understand, Mr. Chen..."

"If you ever need me, I'm available anytime!"

Hearing this, Chen Qiu shook his head again inwardly.

He could sense that Cheng Yun was currently in a state of extreme insecurity.

Only when she was given orders to execute could she feel her own value.

"The entertainment industry really ruins people!"

Chen Qiu sat in the Grand Cloud Sky shuttle and spoke to the manager, Yu Shen.

"Let's go, to Binjiang No. 1."

"Understood, Mr. Chen."

Yu Shen started the car without looking astray, but he was secretly shocked.

This Mr. Chen is way too impressive.

Just how much has he conditioned this young girl?

It was a good thing Chen Qiu didn't know what Yu Shen was thinking, or he would have definitely protested his innocence.

He liked beauty, but he wasn't a pervert.

He could never do something as cuckold-like as letting his woman seduce other men.

Admittedly, Cheng Yun was top-tier in both figure and looks.

But then again, which woman around Chen Qiu wasn't top-tier?

Besides, today was the day of his housewarming; it would be bad luck to stay in a hotel instead of his new home.

A good sword needs a good scabbard!

Having just strengthened his body, he definitely had to use it on the right person.

He pulled out his phone and found Yan Baiwei's WeChat.

"Class Monitor..."

...In the hotel room.

After showering, Cheng Yun lay on the bed, looking at the ceiling and feeling like it was all a dream.

She never expected that such a dramatic blind date would directly change her fate!

Just then.

Her phone suddenly vibrated.

Cheng Yun picked it up, her eyes narrowing slightly.

It was a video call from Feng Man!

Cheng Yun initially wanted to ignore it, but Feng Man kept calling persistently.

Thinking about what Chen Qiu had just said to her, Cheng Yun gritted her teeth and answered.

However, she answered as an audio call.

"Cheng Yun, where are you?"

"You actually dare to betray me?!"

"Do you not want your chance to debut anymore!"

"I'm telling you, men are all talk. You're throwing everything away for some idiot man..."

As soon as the call connected, Feng Man's sharp voice began pouring out of the phone!

Hearing Feng Man's constant threats and her belittling of Chen Qiu, Cheng Yun frowned.

"Sister Feng, I'm very grateful for your past care."

"But please, show some respect."

"Chen... he's different. He can give me things you can't!"

Cheng Yun said in a heavy voice.

She wasn't a three-year-old child; she knew how to read people, and she could feel the respect Chen Qiu had shown her earlier.

He wasn't like Feng Man, or those powerful people she had met before who only saw her as a plaything.

On this point alone, Chen Qiu was far superior to Feng Man!

When Cheng Yun's words reached Feng Man's ears, it was like stepping on a cat's tail.

"What do you mean he can give you things I can't?!"

"What... what are you doing?"

"Why haven't you turned on your camera?!"

"Are you in a hotel room with him?"

"You slutty bitch, I was so good to you..."

Cheng Yun couldn't listen any longer and simply hung up and blocked her!

Meanwhile, far away in Magic City, Feng Man stared at the red exclamation mark. Her mind couldn't help but conjure up famous phone-call scenes from Japanese adult films, and in a fit of rage, she swept the small toys off her desk onto the floor.

Then, she let out a scream of impotent fury!

"Chen, I won't let you get away with this!"

...In the hotel, Cheng Yun patted her cheeks to pull herself together.

"I wonder what Mr. Chen likes..."

Although Chen Qiu had said those things, in Cheng Yun's heart, that was just the task she was supposed to complete.

It wasn't enough to repay Chen Qiu.

After thinking for a bit, Zhang Xin's figure suddenly appeared in her mind.

"Right, I can ask Zhang Xin!"

"Zhang Xin pays so much attention to Mr. Chen, she should know something..."

Before that, she first sent a message of thanks.

"Zhang Xin, thank you for speaking up for me."

At this time.

Zhang Xin, who had already returned home to prepare for her livestream, saw the message and was full of confusion.

She sent three question marks back to Cheng Yun.

What she received in return was a digital red envelope from the other party.

"???"

Zhang Xin sent another three question marks.

What does sending a red envelope mean?

Did she successfully land Mr. Chen?

Is this a provocation?

Cheng Yun: "By the way, Zhang Xin, do you know what Mr. Chen's preferences are?"

When Zhang Xin saw this message, she almost exploded with anger!

The next moment, Cheng Yun even initiated a video call!

"Not only is she provoking me, but she's also going to mock me to my face?!"

Zhang Xin's fists tightened.

She answered the video, preparing to unleash a torrent of abuse at Cheng Yun, but instead saw the latter speaking to the camera with a face full of sincerity and even apology.

"Zhang Xin, I'm sorry. I was too childish and petty..."

Zhang Xin was stunned.

Wait, what?

Is this woman faking it or is she for real?

Did she take the wrong medicine?

...At the He Family home.

He Ting was anxiously waiting for news from Cheng Yun.

The first candidate, Wang Yi, had been pestering her all afternoon for news about Chen Qiu, so it seemed highly likely that she had failed!

The second candidate, Cheng Yun, hadn't replied to any messages, so He Ting judged that her attempt was probably a long shot too!

She didn't dare to ask Chen Qiu directly.

"What's the rush? No news is good news!"

He Yongliang said in a deep voice.

"Instead of being anxious here, you should continue looking for suitable girls for him!"

"In any case, having more options certainly isn't wrong!"

He Ting curled her lip.

Did he think she didn't want to?

Finding Wang Yi and Cheng Yun had already been no easy feat.

She didn't have much influence in the group chat, and hardly anyone paid attention to her messages.

But with He Yongliang's urging, He Ting tried asking again in the group.

As expected.

No one responded.

Just as He Ting was about to try other group chats, Cheng Yun suddenly popped up in the group.

She @'ed He Ting in the group.

"Stop posting. The girls in this group aren't suitable for Mr. Chen."

The next moment, Wang Yi also popped up.

She @'ed Cheng Yun.

"What do you mean by that? Did Brother Qiu actually take an interest in you?"

Are they... are they starting to fight?

The dialogue between the two women instantly activated the others in the group chat.

Others might not know, but the women in this group knew how high everyone's standards were!

A man who could make them fight over him must be a real catch among catches!

In an instant, every one of them became interested!
