The sky in the capital was filled with twinkling stars. Feng Huai, who had just left the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist and wiping his wet hair with another towel, walked towards the floor-to-ceiling glass windows of the hotel he was staying in.
Ever since he had been promoted from a small assistant to an agent managing Zhang Yiqing, his path had been smooth. The people who had mocked him for trying to lick the boots of Zhao Fei were stumped out of words when they saw him doing well.
"Huai Ge, are you really sure about this?" a young man was sitting on the sofa and raised his head to look at him.
Turning around, Feng Huai threw the towel he was using on his hair to the ground and said: "Why? Are you scared, Xiang Lin?"
They had already seen the article about Chestnut collaborating with YH Group. However, Feng Huai refused to believe that such a prominent and huge corporation would actually be hand in hand with a small company like Chestnut.
Chestnut was incomparable to YH Group and they shouldn't even dream of collaborating with them. He was sure that this was a thod Zhao Fei had thought of after Ran Xueyi was caught up in a dating scandal with Mr. He.
However, Feng Huai didn't know that this was not Zhao Fei's idea nor was it Ran Xueyi's. Rather, it was Song Yu Han, the owner of YH Group's selfish decision to protect Ran Xueyi.
Unfortunately, he only knew that Ran Xueyi once had dated a wealthy man before she left the country, but never realized that she had married YH Group's chairman, Song Yu Han.
Xiang Lin paused thoughtfully before shaking his head: "It's not that I am scared. I'm just worried that you'll end up in big trouble if you continue to do this."
Feng Huai replied in a huff, "Don't worry about these small matters and focus on contacting my brother-in-law. He needed the data we have for his promotion."
Once Gong Chun gets a promotion, Feng Huai can transfer to Dauntless. He doesn't have to stay at a small company like Chestnut anymore.
Two years ago, his sister married Gong Chun, an editor from Dauntless. The couple had been living a happy life together and Feng Huai was proud to have his sister marry soone who worked at the top entertainnt company in the country.
However, it was inevitable that he and Gong Chun would be compared to each other whenever there was a family gathering. At first, it was subtle and nobody really took it seriously. However, Feng Huai saw the disparity in his treatnts from his parents and relatives in contrast to how they treated Gong Chun.
Feng Huai believed that it was all because of his incompetence. After all, even after working in the industry for a couple of years now, he still hasn't left Zhao Fei's shadow and continued to be her assistant.
And at another family gathering, Gong Chun suddenly shared his thoughts to him and told him that it was such a pity that a capable man like Feng Huai was just being used as a stepping stone for Zhao Fei. He invited him to quit Chestnut and join Dauntless.
At that ti, Feng Huai didn't want to betray Zhao Fei or Ran Xueyi. For he shared enjoyable and unforgettable monts with them. But the seeds of doubts had already been planted inside him. Feng Huai slowly beca greedy.
And on his sister's birthday, Feng Huai was drunk and got tempted with Gong Chun's offer and his sister's incessant persuasion to join Dauntless. Finally, he could no longer stop himself and said yes.
But despite him saying that he would join Dauntless, he didn't quit Chestnut. Instead, Gong Chun told him to gather anything he could use for his promotion so that he could clear a position for Feng Huai to take when he joined Dauntless as his current position didn't allow him to let just anybody in Dauntless.
Feng Huai initially hesitated and refused to do it. He knew it was a malicious thing to do this. But one day, he and Zhao Fei had fought; he tried to keep his temper in check, but it still led him to stealing so of Chestnut's artists personal data that was on Zhao Fei's computer. After he stole the data and important docunts from the computer, Feng Huai sent them to his brother-in-law while hoping that it would be enough to promote Gong Chun to a higher position so he could finally enter the leading entertainnt company in the country and not beco a laughing stock anymore.
"Huai Ge, should we stop your brother-in-law from using Yao Chuan's personal information from being exposed to his maternal family? I heard Senior Wu warn everyone to never let his maternal family know about his whereabouts. Won't they beco suspicious of us?" Xiang Lin asked with worry and snapped Feng Huai's thoughts of how he had gotten into this situation where he had to be a spy from Dauntless.
The reason why Yao Chuan was being harassed and chased by his maternal family was because Feng Huai's brother-in-law got hold of this piece of information and told his maternal family where he used to live.
"What else can we do? Isn't this a good thing for Zhang Yiqing's developnt? Yao Chuan's popularity and fans are increasingly growing stronger. If I don't do this, Zhang Yiqing will be left to the dust!" Feng Huai still had a bit of his concerns about the future of Zhang Yiqing, the artist under him.
"But Yao Chuan and Zhang Yiqing are different." Xiang Lin still wanted to remind him that one of them was an actor and the other was a solo singer.
However, Feng Huai refused to listen to him and glared at Xiang Lin: "Are you going to compile the information we gathered and give it to my brother-in-law or are you going to preach to about what I should do? If you're still afraid, you can get out now and stay at Chestnut!"
Xiang Lin had the thought to leave and stay in Chestnut, but he was afraid that Feng Huai would target him. He was just a little assistant that joined Chestnut a few months ago and got pushed into becoming Feng Huai's secondary assistant. In the end, Xiang Lin sat still and continued to compile the data on the computer.
After finishing editing and compiling, Xiang Lin bid Feng Huai farewell.
"Don't forget that we still have to et Editor Chang and give him the USB tomorrow. Don't be late!" Feng Huai closed the door to his face, leaving a stunned Xiang Lin standing in the hallway.
Xiang Lin sighed and turned around. He made his way to the elevator and heard the sound of his phone chiming. When he retrieved his phone from his pants pocket, he saw that it was a ssage from his younger sister.
[Ruyiyi: I received the money, brother! Thank you!
