BXBX NOVEL Chapter 311 - You're Leaving (IV)
" Hah!!" Xu Nuan let out a heavy sigh as she started to feel a sharp pain in her head. She put away the documents that she was reading and held her head back on the chair and closed her eyes to rest.
She was having headaches for a few days now but it was bearable. However, the dual life of a college student and an artist manager was making her tired now. Since she is leaving the company soon, she has to wrap up the projects on which she was working and has to prepare the material for the person who will take over the work after her.
On top of the work stress, she was worried about Pan Lan and Sun Ya too. It\'s been three days since they found out that she is leaving soon and they have stopped talking to her since then. They come to practice but avoid her like a plague.
She has no idea how to deal with this situation. She can manage situations that involve others smoothly and can give the \'best\' advice too, but when it comes to her problems, she is at a loss.
She groaned in pain as the headache was making her feel dizzy. She massaged her temples and murmured, " It\'s not because of the surgery, is it?" she wondered. It\'s been a year since she had the surgery, even the scar on her forehead has lightened to some extent.
It wasn\'t much big since the start anyway. But now it was almost invisible and thanks to her no-makeup-look makeup, she can hide it perfectly.
Even though it\'s been a long since the surgery, she still experiences headaches like this sometimes, especially when the weather changes or she takes the stress. " I don\'t want to go to the doctor again." she groaned.
Just as she was wondering what to do about this headache, her phone rang. It was the receptionist. She informed her that Mr. Tang had called her to his office. At that time she knew about what he wanted to talk about.
It must be about the contract of The Knights. However, she has no answer for now. Lai Yi and Song Ai don\'t want to sign the contract but she has no idea about Pan Lan and Sun Ya.
" I think I have to deal with this first then the headache." she sighed and left the office to talk to the girls first.

When she went to the practice room, it was empty. No one was there.
" Where did they all go?" Xu Nuan frowned. She was going to the terrace lounge to look for them when she bumped into Rin Rin.
She wanted to pass by her but halted in her steps when she heard her talking to her, " Ms. Xu, so...when are you leaving the company? Why are you wasting your and others\' time by extending your exit from the company?"
Xu Nuan frowned. So this long-nose witch has told the girls the news? She pursed her lips and scoffed inwardly feeling irritated upon remembering how her actions had made things difficult for her.
\'Should I just shave her head?\' she thought.
Rin Rin smirked when Xu Nuan didn\'t say anything, " I feel bad for those girls. They acted like you guys will never leave each other and pretend to act like soulmates forever and yet...tsk..tsk. Manager Xu Nuan, I never thought that you would betray your artists and will leave them in the middle like this."
" Such a pity that they will be abandoned before they can make their name in the industry. But don\'t you worry, Ms. Wang will take care of them. She is the head manager here, after all."
" But I have a question. Do you think that The Knights will continue to shine even after you leave? Hmm...I doubt." Rin Rin laughed thinking about their future, which is now blurry.
Xu Nuan folded her hands in front of her chest and scoffed, " Rin Rin, you genuinely think that you did something great by acting like a bi*ch, don\'t you? Well, thank you so much for reducing my workload. You things are rather easy for me." she said without filtering her words.
" What did you call me? Bit-
" You think that you\'re outstanding, aren\'t you? Just because you have a wealthy family, doesn\'t mean that you\'re greater than others." Xu Nuan continued without letting her speak.
"Have you ever compared your talent to my girls? Compared to them, you can\'t sing, can\'t dance well, forget about all that, you don\'t even have a kind personality. Tsk, tsk, so poor. What gave you the confidence to think that you\'re better than my girls?"
" And for your information, they\'re popular not because of me but because of their talent. Even if I am not by their side, they will do just fine. So you should worry about yourself and get lost."
Rin Rin\'s face turned pale upon hearing her words. She gritted her teeth and glared at Xu Nuan. What right does she have to be so confident in front of her? " You…" She was wanting to say something when she saw The Knights getting off the elevator.
Her lips curled up in a smirk and laughed, " Well, I also want to see how great your girls can do after you leave. Hmph." She pushed her hair back and walked out of the building.
Xu Nuan sighed and was wanting to talk to The Knights who just went to the practice room but the receptionist stopped her and asked her to see Mr. Tang first.
In the end, she had no choice but to meet Mr. Tang first.

" WHAT? SO YOU\'RE SAYING THAT….THE GIRLS CAME HERE AND DENIED FROM SIGNING THE CONTRACT?" Xu Nuan exclaimed in shock.
She was now standing in Mr. Tang\'s office. She thought he would ask her about the contract, instead, he started shouting at her.
She was at loss at his sudden change in attitude and felt like throwing something at him because his voice was making her headache even worse. Her face was pale and she was even feeling dizzy.
Mr. Tang frowned seeing Xu Nuan feigning ignorance and threw the papers at her, " This is the contract that I have given you to make them sign on it. A while ago they came and returned these papers to me saying that they won\'t be renewing their contract with our company. Does it make sense?"
" Xu Nuan, I asked you to make them agree to renew their contract, what the hell did you say to make them take this step? They\'re just newbies, they should have grabbed this opportunity with open hands, then what the hell is happening?"
Xu Nuan was not listening to him anymore. " Did Pan Lan and Sun Ya also come? Did they return their contracts as well?"
He gritted his teeth and slammed the table in frustration, " Yes!! But why do I feel that you look rather happy? Xu Nuan, tell me honestly, what are you planning to do? Are you behind all of this? Are you planning something against the company?"
" Why aren\'t they signing the contract? Everything is going perfectly, it would be beneficial for them to go with this arrangement." He shouted at her.
She didn\'t say anything and stayed quiet. However, she couldn\'t help but feel excited thinking that in the end, they decided to not sign the contract.
\'Does that mean...just like Lai Yi and Song Ai, Pan Lan and Sun Ya want to come with me as well? Woohoo!!\'
Mr. Tang\'s anger heightened to see her smiling on her own.
" What are you laughing for? Is it funny? Huh?"
Xu Nuan shook her head and said, " I told them everything but if they don\'t want to renew the contract, then...what can I do?"
" Moreover, didn\'t you want to dissolve the group after a year? First, you wanted to kick them out, now they want to leave on their own."
" That\'s why Mr. Tang, you should have believed in me first when I said that these girls have potential. If you had launched them normally just like other girls, you wouldn\'t have got to see this day," she said, rubbing salt and pepper on his fresh wounds.
He gritted his teeth and clenched his fists tight. If The Knights didn\'t renew the contract, then their company won\'t be able to manage the current reputation that they have.
" And yeah Mr. Tang, As I have said in my resignation, I will be leaving the company by next week. I have to focus on my studies and other things as well, you see. So I will go to the HR department tomorrow and will clear my dues with them."
" Also...For The Knights, I will still be available until their contract period is over and will do whatever I can do for them remotely. There are only less than two months left anyway. If you need me in the future, just text me during working hours. Please refrain from contacting me after work hours. Thank you. I\'ll take my leave now." she said in one breath and left the office, leaving baffled Mr. Tang behind.
" XU NUAN!!" He shouted seeing her running away, but she didn\'t even turn around for a moment even after he shouted at her.
