When she was done washing up and changing into a clean nightdress, Song Yu Han had already changed out of his formal suit and was leaning against the headboard with a tablet in his hand.

Not wanting to disturb him and with her body demanding her to sleep already, Ran Xueyi gave him a soft kiss on the cheek before lying on the bed to sleep.

Tomorrow will be a busy day for her. She needed to finish everything in her company before she would join the crew for the shooting of < A Thousand Lotus >.

Seeing her turning up early for the night, Song Yu Han also didn\'t stop her nor tried anything to distract her. He was also very tired after a long day and though he could have rested early like her, there were still some projects he needed to recheck before he could sleep.

The next day.

Ran Xueyi went to the office building to finish the preparations for the opening and announcement of her newly established entertainment company. Wu Qi went to meet her in the office early in the morning and reported to her the recent situation of the company.

Since the company still hasn\'t officially opened their doors to the public, the management and development of the company was relatively slow so there wasn\'t much to discuss aside from the selected few artists that were being contacted to be signed under the company.

Wu Qi handed a file to Ran Xueyi and said, "We already confirmed 3 artists, including Zhang Yiqing whom you personally approached last time."

Ran Xueyi took the file and saw the names that quickly signed with the company. One of them was Zhang Yiqing, the young idol whom she contacted first at the club. She wasn\'t surprised when she saw his name since she already expected him to free himself from his group.

The other two people who were listed below him, however, came as a surprise.

Wu Qi: "Deng Zhenzhen was recommended to me by a friend. I originally wanted to test the waters and see if she wanted to sign with us and so, I sent someone to go and talk to her agent. I didn\'t expect that she would sign on the same day."

Ran Xueyi also didn\'t expect it. She met Deng Zhenzhen in her sister\'s birthday party, the same day she ruined the Ran family and Yang Baihua in front of everyone.

Ran Xueyi frowned. "Is there something going on with her?"

Wu Qi had already expected her to ask this and readily responded with a nod.

"Deng Zhenzhen has been doing well in the acting circle. However, her age isn\'t very suitable to the mainstream that the entertainment world are looking for. Hence, after her recent movies was being released, the agency she was signed with blocked all the resources she was given and used them to promote their new artists."

The world of entertainment wasn\'t meant to be forever. Every year, there will always be someone at the top and no matter if you\'re a veteran and skilled in acting, people will still find a new favorite and forget about the other.

This type of occurrence, Ran Xueyi was very clear about it.

But it still stunned her to know that Deng Zhenzhen\'s agency would actually suppress her just because she was getting older. Ran Xueyi might have to ask Deng Zhenzhen personally about the real reason.

Ran Xueyi told him, "Alright, we can finalize her contract. Tell her to come to the office when she\'s ready to move out. What about the last one?"

Wu Qi did not have any objection to her decision and explained in detail: "The last one is a trainee. His name is Yao Chuan. He\'s a trainee under ABC Media and has been training under them for three years."

"Three years?!"

Usually, trainees  would only train under a company for a year and a half before they would make an official debut as an artist. During their training days, they would still have some time to be used as a stand-in or get minor roles in a movie or drama.

Ran Xueyi never heard of anyone training under the same company for three years and still hasn\'t made their debut or any sort of appearance as an extra in a film before.

"What about his resume?... No, I\'ll check them myself." Ran Xueyi pulled the file in her hand and read the resume under Yao Chuan\'s name.

Shockingly, Yao Chuan never got to play in any role or be used by his company.

"What\'s going on?" Ran Xueyi asked.

Wu Qi knew that Ran Xueyi might have been slightly upset over this matter. So, he explained quickly, "Yao Chuan is the son of Yao Ling, one of the Four Brightest Stars two decades ago. Apparently, after Miss Yao\'s death, her son was sent to his relatives and was sold off to ABC Media for three million yuan."

Ran Xueyi finally understood what was going on. Selling somebody\'s son to be an artist wasn\'t rare and unheard of, it was just that this type of deal was not publicly known yet. She met a few idols and artists who ended up being sold off by their parents due to their debt and needs. Several companies would offer this type of deal to any parents who have talented children with good-looking faces.

Yao Chuan must have fallen into the same schemes.

"But wasn\'t Miss Yao a wealthy actress? She should have earned a lot in the past and built her own business. What happened to that?"

Wu Qi already investigated about this as well and he replied, "According to the reports I received, Miss Yao fell into bankruptcy due to her partner\'s dr*g and gambling addiction. Due to this, the rest of her money was scattered and taken by her relatives. Yao Chuan was unable to save a single penny from his mother\'s money."

Ran Xueyi fell silent for a while. She was deeply thinking about this matter.

The world of entertainment looked bright and shiny as if there was only the glitters and sparkles of luxury and life, but if you were to take off the cover and look deeper inside the bottle, the entertainment circle was too filthy, filled with moss and wild grass that no matter if you tried to clean and trim it, it will still grow and spread out like a web.

It was unfortunate that this happened to Yao Chuan, who was Miss Yao\'s son. However, Ran Xueyi cannot be biased towards him just because he was the son of a famous star in the past. What she needed was someone with talent and knew how to rise up from despair, not someone who needed to be pitied and cannot stand up on his own.

Ran Xueyi finally said after a while, "Put the contract on hold for Yao Chuan and call his agency to tell them to send his assessment videos. I\'d like to see whether it will be worth it to sign him."

Wu Qi finished with his reports and went back to do his other responsibilities. He didn\'t forget to contact the assessment director of ABC Media and request them to hand over Yao Chuan\'s assessment video.

When ABC Media received the request, they were indifferent towards it and even sighed while thinking that another company was wasting their time on a worthless trainee. Seeing the unrecognizable and unknown company named Chestnut, they laughed once again before sending the assessment video that the assessment director had given to them.

After an hour, Ran Xueyi received Wu Qi\'s mail and checked it. The assessment video was raw and unfiltered, showing a young man\'s handsome face on the screen.

It was Yao Chuan.

Ran Xueyi stared at the young man\'s face and frowned. The young man surely inherited his mother\'s amazing features and could even debut independently as a stream idol. Yet, he was restrained under a company that didn\'t have any plans to let him debut at all.

Just from his looks alone, many other companies would sign him. So, what exactly is wrong with him?

Pressing the play button, Ran Xueyi leaned back in her seat and watched the assessment video for half an hour.

Inside the office, there was only the sound of a deep and low voice coming from the small speaker on top of the desk, and the rustling sound of fabric against the skin.

Behind the desk, the lights reflecting off of the screen were cast on her pale skin and a pair of fox-shaped eyes stared unblinkingly at it.

Then, a mysterious smile appeared on those cherry-red lips.

"Wonderful."
