Abused Female Lead And Beautiful Villainess (Quick Transmigration) Chapter 142 : . Becoming a Celebrity The Fought-Over-by-Big-

Pan Yue could hardly believe that Jing Ming was behind this mischief.

Surely Jing Ming wouldn't go to such lengths over a woman?

Wasn't the whole internet abuzz about Jing Ming, the domineering CEO, pursuing Shen Wan, the little white flower?

Didn't he claim he found a look-alike to avoid hurting Shen Wan? How could he possibly be targeting her now?

"Ever heard of love turning to hate?" Shen Wan glanced at him. "Everyone knows he likes but can't have . Now that I know about his look-alike, he's furious. His affection has morphed into hatred, and he wants to destroy my reputation in the industry."

"I suspect he plans to fra , then offer help, showing the industry's cruelty so I'll rely on him."

Pan Yue was stunned. It all seed to make sense.

He knew Jing Ming well enough to understand the man would stop at nothing to achieve his goals.

If Jing Ming truly fancied Shen Wan but couldn't have her, and his secret was exposed, their chances were likely ruined.

Now Jing Ming had to resort to other thods to bring Shen Wan back to him. Though extre, it was undeniably effective.

"So, Boss, what's the plan?"

Pan Yue was straightforward. Having lost to Shen Wan twice in drinking, he willingly accepted her as his boss, despite so regret.

He knew plenty about Jing Ming.

The man was ruthless, employing any ans necessary, and quite petty. Moreover, Pan's family couldn't afford to cross Jing Ming – it would be suicide.

"Jing Ming has turned dark. I'm deeply troubled," Shen Wan cupped her face, shalessly uttering these words, leaving Pan Yue and Fu Qingman at a loss for how to react.

"If we let him continue, he'll surely do worse. What do you think, little bro?"

Pan Yue nodded, "Indeed. He won't stop until he gets what he wants. Boss, how did you end up on his radar?"

"What else could it be but this face causing trouble," Shen Wan sighed. "I guess I'm just too good-looking."

Pan Yue: Is... is that so?

Fu Qingman pondered silently for a mont. "Are you certain Jing Ming is behind this?"

"Yes, do you think I'm lying, Qingman?"

eting Shen Wan's wide eyes, Fu Qingman quickly shook her head. "No, if it's truly Jing Ming targeting you, he might have turned dark as you said. Now he'll use any ans to get you. I'm just worried about what he might do next."

What else could he do?

If not for her powerful 188, Jing Ming would have employed countless tactics against her by now. This man was truly the pettiest she'd ever encountered, petty beyond belief.

After the Leng Jiatong incident, the director told her he'd received a call from Jing Ming the next day, offering Jing Corporation's investnt if he'd kick Shen Wan off the production. Clearly, this man was trying to cut off all her avenues.

Yet to outsiders, it might seem like Jing Ming's excessive love, clipping her wings to keep her caged.

Shen Wan was about to say sothing when her phone rang.

It was her agent, Su Jiali. "Sister Jiali, what's up? Why are you calling now?"

"Did you offend soone?" Su Jiali asked directly. "The company just inford they're assigning you a new agent. Sothing feels off. I've tried to argue, but they won't budge. It's like they're determined to hand you over to this person."

"Who are they assigning?" Shen Wan exchanged glances with Fu Qingman and Pan Yue. See? It must be Jing Ming making his move.

She put the call on speaker so Fu Qingman and Pan Yue could hear.

"A veteran agent from the company, Song Xi. They've already decided. Shen Wan, I tried my best, but they won't relent. I'm out of options. Be careful. Song Xi isn't simple. You've been in the industry for a year or two now; you should have heard so rumors about her."

"Thanks for telling , Sister Jiali. Don't worry, I'll be fine."

Su Jiali wasn't so optimistic. She truly cared for Shen Wan. But this industry was a quagmire; things didn't always go as one wished. Even artists under her managent developed well, but she lacked the authority to act freely.

She could only pray for Shen Wan's future. Being forcibly reassigned left her feeling helpless. No matter how angry she felt, she couldn't fight the higher-ups. She had to give up.

"Song Xi is a social climber. It seems soone is indeed targeting you," Fu Qingman worried. "How many years did you sign for initially? Maybe we should terminate the contract. If you're short on money, I can help."

Given Shen Wan's value then, the breach of contract fee, however high, shouldn't be too extre.

Minor artists usually faced fees of a few million. Even now, Shen Wan wasn't a major star; the fee wouldn't reach hundreds of millions.

She offered money thinking Shen Wan might be short after investing several hundred million in the production recently.

"Little bro, here's your chance to rise," Shen Wan beckoned Pan Yue. "Co here, let tell you."

Pan Yue leaned in skeptically. Fu Qingman, curious but hesitant, watched.

Shen Wan noticed and pulled her over by the neck. "Here's my plan..."

After hearing it, Pan Yue and Fu Qingman stared at Shen Wan in shock.

"You have that much money?" Fu Qingman couldn't hide her surprise. "Even shares in your current company?"

Shen Wan flashed a bright smile. She'd anticipated this, having 188 arrange it beforehand.

Over the past year, 188 had acquired significant company shares. She was essentially a minor boss now.

The company's pressure likely ca from Jing Ming. How could a small entertainnt company resist such a tycoon?

Pan Yue swallowed hard. His boss was truly rich and impressive. Acknowledging her as his boss was definitely worth it.

Now she wanted him to take over the company, suggesting a complete buyout. His heart raced at the prospect.

Eventually, Pan Yue succumbed to temptation and agreed.

The next day, Shen Wan's agency changed hands. Rumor had it a mysterious shareholder had acquired the company. When the new owner was revealed to be the pleasure-seeking Young Master Pan, everyone was shocked. Had the Pan family bought the company for their son to play with?

That sa day, Shen Wan was summoned by her new agent.

Now, she stood before Song Xi, her new agent. "I've arranged several endorsents for you," Song Xi handed Shen Wan so docunts. "Take a look and let know if there are any issues."

Shen Wan flipped through them, frowning slightly. These were lingerie endorsents. While she didn't discriminate against such jobs, how could she, a pure little white flower, accept these?

"What's wrong? Any objections?" Song Xi pressed. "Given your current fa, landing big-brand lingerie endorsents is quite good. It's a great opportunity; you should seize it."

"What if I don't want to do it?"

Song Xi had been waiting for this. "If you don't, I'll give it to soone else. Others aren't as picky as you. As for when your next opportunity will co... well, that's anyone's guess."

The implication was clear: refuse this, and she might not get any more resources.

For most artists, being cut off by the company would indeed block all paths.

"Sister Song, you should know my image. This kind of endorsent isn't suitable. Besides, I don't think I need to take on any endorsents now. I still have two dramas to film."

"How long have you been in the industry to be so arrogant? No endorsents, no other gigs? Once those two dramas are done, who'll rember you?" Song Xi's face turned cold. "I'm offering you this for your own good. If you don't appreciate it, I won't bother in the future."

"I don't think you're fit to be an agent. Your vision is too narrow. You can't see my potential and try to confine with lingerie endorsents."

Song Xi thought Shen Wan had gone mad to speak to her like this.

She laughed coldly inside. This industry wasn't so simple. Now that soone wanted to hinder Shen Wan's developnt, it would happen.

Even if Shen Wan wanted out, the hefty breach of contract fee was beyond her ans.

Song Xi glanced at Shen Wan. "I'm busy now. Think it over and decide for yourself." With that, she turned and left.

The next ti Shen Wan saw Song Xi, she was carrying a cardboard box, leaving with her belongings.

Song Xi didn't understand why. She knew the new boss was taking over today. She'd just gone to report her work, and the new boss fired her.

The reason? She looked too vulgar, unattractive, and her perfu disgusted him.

Song Xi was furious but could only leave.

Feeling a gaze on her back, she turned to see Shen Wan munching on an ice cream cone. She nearly fainted from anger.

"Sister Song, where are you going with all that stuff?"

"She's been fired by the new boss," Su Jiali erged from behind, eyeing Shen Wan oddly. She lowered her voice, "The new boss is Young Master Pan. Did you know?"

After all, everyone knew about Shen Wan's recent gossip with Pan Yue.

"Of course I knew."

Su Jiali hesitated before asking, "Are you and Young Master Pan really..."

"Your guess is correct. Pan Yue and I are truly brothers now," Shen Wan raised her head proudly, patting Su Jiali's shoulder. "Sister Jiali, you're my agent again. The company's new boss is my brother. No need to worry, right?"

Su Jiali: "..."

"Qingman's here to take to the set. Sister Jiali, don't arrange any endorsents for , okay? You know, the last person who tried that was fired by my brother. Just be my agent and handle my public relations."

As Fu Qingman's car pulled up, Shen Wan hurried over, diving into the passenger seat as if in a great rush.

Su Jiali stood dazed for a long while before coming to her senses, chuckling despite herself. "Can't believe that girl just threatened ."

"Brothers? Shen Wan and Young Master Pan as brothers? Unbelievable."

"Is everything settled?" Fu Qingman was about to hand Shen Wan the ice cream she'd bought earlier when she noticed one in her hand. "Oh, you already have one. Then this..."

"Give it to too. I can eat two."

Shen Wan took the ice cream, unwrapped it, and licked it. Half-closing her eyes, she looked at Fu Qingman and said, "Why do I find the ice cream you bought sweeter?"

"Really?" Fu Qingman was skeptical. Shen Wan held out her ice cream. "Don't believe ? Try both and see which is sweeter."

[188: "Wan Wan, this isn't right."] Having just finished several investnts, 188 overheard Shen Wan flirting with the young lady and couldn't take it anymore.

He'd been so busy lately, investing for Wan Wan to get more skins for his partner, that he'd neglected spending ti with them. He'd have to explain and take a couple days off to be with his partner. He couldn't risk becoming single again by ignoring them for investnts.

To his shock, Fu Qingman glanced at Shen Wan, pulled the car over, stared at her for a mont, then leaned down and licked both ice creams.

"Well? Which is sweeter?"

Fu Qingman pressed her lips together, wiped her mouth corner with a tissue, and started the car again.

It wasn't that she didn't want to speak. After impulsively following Shen Wan's suggestion, her heart was racing uncontrollably, as if about to burst from her chest.

She didn't understand what was happening to her. She only knew she wasn't acting normal.

This abnormality occurred whenever she was around Shen Wan. So this abnormality was truly abnormal.

"Qingman, which is sweeter?"

Fu Qingman exhaled softly, silently suppressing her pounding heart before replying, "I think they're equally sweet. No difference."

They're both equally sweet because I licked them both.

This thought suddenly popped into her mind, causing Fu Qingman to slam on the brakes.
