"You were the one who gave out orders! Plus, you've never liked the CEO and tried to stir up trouble many times against her. Everyone who worked on the first floor knows this! I helped you because you are my boss!"
"You..." Dai Yixin's face was green from fury, "You were the one who eagerly tried to kiss my butt in order to get more resources. You went against Qiao Qing far more publicly than me. Now that you found out she's the CEO, you're trying to switch sides? You think everyone here's an idiot and can't tell what you're doing?!"
"..."
The two fought back and forth for a long time. The crowd couldn't help but think...a dog was biting another dog.
"Enough!" In the end, it was Gu Xinze who shouted for them to stop after he noticed Qiao Qing frown. "Are we here for the party or are we here to listen to you two fight?! One's a director, the other's a celebrity... are you trying to make Sky Entertainment look like a joke?!"
"Mr. Gu," Lan Xu tried to grin courteously, "I didn't want the CEO to be wrongfully accused and that's why I spoke the truth. Even if I get punished for my part in it, I'd still believe it's the right thing to do!"
"..." Everyone's faces turned white at her words. How could anyone be so shameless?
Gu Xinze grinned, "Punishment? That's easy."
Lan Xu's smile froze on her face, "Mr. Gu, no, I mean..."
"Honestly, after what happened last time, we already pulled you off the market," Gu Xinze said, "We didn't pull you out of your current job because that would be a breach of contract and harm the company. If it weren't for that, you'd be completely jobless right now. You better enjoy your last dinner."
"After you leave, don't forget to contact a new company. Until our contract ends, you won't be receiving the slightest spotlight. You will very quickly fall out of everyone's eyesight and be forgotten."
Gu Xinze's words made Lan Xu go pale, "Mr... Gu... I was wrong. I admit that. I promise you that it won't happen again. I... I can fix this! I can make the company more money!"
Sky Entertainment had surpassed Star Entertainment in terms of market cap in this country.
After Fu Xiuyu left and joined Sky Entertainment, it had improved drastically and was now a mature company that others could only admire.
If she left Sky Entertainment, where could she go for an equal amount of opportunities?!
Gu Xinze's tone was serious so she didn't think he was joking.
As she realized this, she turned to Qiao Qing and begged, "CEO, I was wrong. I never should've listened to that petty woman and done things to hurt you. You have a big heart. Please forgive me just this once. I promise you that from today on, I will view you as my Goddess!"
Her action once again caused everyone to make a face.
After what she's done, she was begging everyone for forgiveness? Her skin must be thicker than the wall.
Qiao Qing glared at her, "You think I'm someone who answers evildoers with kindness?"
The last trace of color disappeared from Lan Xu's face. Now, she appeared truly hopeless.
All the celebrities who have been suppressed by her were ecstatic. They were also extremely glad that they did nothing to wrong the CEO.
Dai Yixin's heart beated heavily as she witnessed Lan Xu's career's tragic end.
When Gu Xinze looked her way, her lips stretched out, "Mr. Gu, I know I did something wrong. I ask to be demoted and I will start fresh from the bottom."
With her capabilities, even if she restarts at the bottom, she will soon win back her director position.
