As for the monthly manager...

That depends on how valuable the information provided by Xu Mengjie really is.

Xi Hongxia typed the words in the input field again and again, repeatedly deleting and editing them.

In the end, she said nothing.

Xingyue is a big family. If Xu Mengjie really comes back, she will continue to guide Xu Mengjie as a senior to familiarize herself with the company and its business.

But, after such a resolute decision, he has now bowed his head in despair.

Xi Hongxia didn't want to waste any more time on someone with such a weak will. The deep sisterly bond they had shared came to an end when Xu Mengjie left Xingyue.

She had fought for Xu Mengjie, communicated with her, and even felt angry at her for not standing up for herself after she left! In fact, when Xu Mengjie was kicked out of the Su family and left homeless, she couldn't bear it and secretly asked Sister Qi to send her 50,000 yuan for emergency use.

If Xu Mengjie is willing to work hard and find another job, she can always persevere.

Even if we take a step back and assume that Xu Mengjie came seeking help from the legal departments of Zhongxing or Xingyue to handle the exorbitant contract with Brilliant Culture, Xi Hongxia wouldn't be so disappointed.

After the drug testing incident, the second thing Zhongxingyue began to rectify was the exorbitant contract.

Not only did the entire company undergo rectification, but many minor celebrities who had nowhere else to turn, or who were forced or too young to understand, signed exorbitant contracts with certain companies, were also given assistance.

To be honest, this is a very thankless and exhausting task!

After all, it's an entertainment company, not a dedicated legal department. And the people they're trying to save are some unknown minor celebrities. It's really not worth offending their peers for them!
But according to gossip from the stars, ever since that night when Director Tang and CEO Yue had a three-hour phone call, the stars have started to work together on this kind of thing.

It's like a cleaning machine falling into a pool of murky water; its capabilities are limited, but it's still trying its best to clear the silt.

If Xu Mengjie has heard about this and wants to seek the company's help, she will immediately help connect her with President Zhou.

But Xu Mengjie wanted more than just that...

What she wants is to return to the company openly and honestly, enjoy Xingyue's resources, relive her past glory, and then dump all the mess on the legal department, leaving her colleagues scrambling to deal with her past choices.

Why?

Xi Hongxia shook her head. People always have to pay the price for their actions, and they should also know that not everyone... will wait for them to turn back, right?

Moreover, the Su family's affairs have made Xi Hongxia see through Xu Mengjie completely!
He toyed with her feelings for three years, and then, with a simple "I want to get engaged," she abandoned all her resources to pursue "love," only to be deceived and kicked out of the house in the end.

To put it nicely, they are simple-minded; to put it bluntly, they are foolish.

Staying at Xingyue any longer will likely bring more trouble than benefits!
Especially since the company is determined to be the most ethical in the industry, it is using its limited resources to fight against the entire corrupt entertainment circle. The troubles it will encounter are far more complex than simple business competition!
Even the slightest mistake could plunge you into an abyss of no return.

Xu Mengjie... To be honest, Xi Hongxia didn't think she had that kind of resilience.

Thinking of this, she suddenly smiled absentmindedly...

Without realizing it, I've come to regard Xingyue as my real home. I sincerely hope that the company will do well and that this home will last. That's why... I find it so hard to tolerate the sand.

But ultimately, it is up to the CEOs to make the judgment.

Xi Hongxia took a deep breath, shook her head, and quickly threw herself into the new round of work.

Inside Xingyue's office.

Zhou Jue rubbed his forehead and looked at Xu Mengjie in front of him.

After some time apart, she had lost her former radiance. This girl who once shone brightly on stage, who seemed to be possessed by a singing goddess when she picked up the microphone, was now dressed simply, her hair disheveled, and her eyes devoid of any light.

"You said..." Zhou Jue began, "you have a reason why you must see President Yue?"

"Yes!" Xu Mengjie nodded heavily. "It's a matter of great importance, so I can only tell President Yue in person."

Zhou Jue smiled upon hearing this: "Miss Xu, forgive my bluntness, but given your previous behavior, I have doubts about the importance of this matter!"

I believe she did have something to discuss with Mr. Yue, but I don't believe her matter is that important.

After all, Zhou Jue found it hard to believe that someone who would immediately abandon her work for an engagement ceremony was really up to something important. He figured she either wanted to sign a contract or needed the company to help her resolve her issues with Brilliant Culture.

Xu Mengjie bit her lip, looking very troubled: "President Zhou, I can only tell President Yue."

Zhou Jue shrugged: "In fact, if you hadn't been shouting downstairs that you absolutely had to find President Yue, you probably wouldn't have even seen me."

The implication was that giving her a chance was already a great favor; if she couldn't produce anything substantial, she should get out of the office as soon as possible.

Xu Mengjie's expression changed several times. After a long while, she hesitated and said, "I...I know someone is trying to kidnap President Yue's son."

"What?" Zhou Jue was stunned, sitting up straight. "How did you know? Who is the other party?"

Xu Mengjie gritted her teeth: "It's...it's my boyfriend and them..."

Zhou Jue frowned: "Your boyfriend?"

"Ah."

"The Su family?" Zhou Jue chuckled. "As far as I know, the Su family is just an ordinary wealthy merchant family in H City, with most of their businesses in intelligent scientific research. But in recent years, they've made some poor judgments, and several important investments have been cut short. They poured tens of millions of yuan in loans into new projects, which failed without even making a ripple. To pay off their debts, they even went so far as to sell you into Brilliant Culture, signing you a lifelong contract of servitude... Such people have absolutely no connection to President Yue, and they're not even qualified to kidnap President Yue's son?"

It's not that I look down on the Su family.

Did they even know where the Jun family's gate was?
Upon hearing this, Xu Mengjie's face turned deathly pale.

So, Xingyue investigated the Su family so thoroughly? It's practically like he stripped the Su family bare!

If that's the case, why didn't President Zhou tell her about the huge problem with the Su family when she brought up terminating the contract?

Her anger was nipped in the bud.

Yes……

What right does she have to be angry?
Back then, General Manager Zhou, Sister Xia, Sister Qi, so many colleagues in the legal department... even the taciturn Si Younian... all reminded her not to give up her job for love.

But how did she do it?

She covered her ears, refusing to listen to anyone's advice, and insisted on walking into the abyss.

Now, are they going to turn around and blame the other party for not helping them?

Xu Mengjie lowered her head even further, tears of shame and remorse welling up in her eyes: "I'm sorry... Mr. Zhou, I only now understand your good intentions... I..."

Zhou Jue was not good at dealing with girls crying, so he quickly stopped her, saying, "Let's talk about the kidnapping first."

Xu Mengjie wiped away her tears and presented the complete picture she knew. (End of Chapter)
