Duan Jiabao was shocked.

"Resign...resign me!"

"Why? Everything I'm doing right now is in accordance with company standards—food, clothing, daily necessities, transportation—it's all up to those standards. I haven't overstepped any boundaries."

"Even if some expenses exceeded the limit, they were my personal expenses, and I bought them myself. I didn't go through the company, and I didn't post them on social media, so no one will misunderstand."

Mr. Qian shook his head at her, took out a piece of paper and handed it over, tapping on a line of text.

"Look at this."

Duan Jiabao looked at it and explained, "Oh, this is seafood soy sauce. It's only a few dozen yuan more expensive than regular soy sauce. I can just pay for it myself and not reimburse you."

Suddenly, President Qian sat up straight and stared at her, saying, "Duan Jiabao, on your first day at the company, I told you to take a good look at the company's artist handbook. Did you read it carefully?"

"Ah!" Duan Jiabao was stunned. She had indeed read through the company's artist handbook, but there were no celebrities she liked on it, so she quickly forgot about it.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Qian brought this up today.

Before she could answer, Mr. Qian continued, "After the filming ended that day, Ouyang Yushuang developed a rash and was taken to the hospital."

"It's clearly stated in her artist handbook that she's allergic to seafood. Do you know that? And what did you do?"

"You got him a shot, but you also prevented her from working for three whole weeks."

"A full three weeks!"

"So, I don't want to waste any more words, you can leave."

Duan Jiabao opened her mouth, then silently closed it again. She left the office, knowing she had lost her job.

Chapter 335 Broker

In the girls' dormitory of South China University of Finance and Economics, Liang Shuang was putting on makeup when Duan Jiabao returned to the dormitory with a cardboard box and a long face.

Luo Yan asked with concern, "Da Bao, what's wrong?"

Duan Jiabao said, "Shitou, I've lost my job!"

Luo Yan asked in surprise, "You're unemployed? You were doing just fine! I heard you had a really good relationship with that artist you were working with, what's her name, Yu Shuang. How come you're unemployed?"

Duan Jiabao felt a little embarrassed upon hearing this. He glanced at Luo Yan and explained in a low voice, "The artist I managed, Ouyang Yushuang, is allergic to seafood. I forgot. As a result, she ate seafood soy sauce, developed a rash on her face, and was fired."

Luo Yan looked at her speechlessly. The reason for being fired was very compelling: such carelessness. If she were the boss, she probably would have fired her too. For a moment, she didn't know how to comfort her.

Duan Jiabao was sad for a while, but quickly recovered. After all, it was just a job, and she wasn't particularly happy doing it. For this rich second-generation, it wasn't that important.

The thought of getting Lili's concert tickets made me even more excited.

Duan Jiabao paid a heavy price to get this insider ticket that allowed her to meet Lili. She bought a lot of drinks that Lili endorsed, and it wasn't enough for everyone in her dorm to drink them every day; people from nearby dorms also had to help drink them.

I finally won a big prize: an exclusive ticket to Lili's concert, the kind where you can interact with Lili.

After filling in her personal information and address online, the ticket has already been mailed to her and is expected to arrive tonight or tomorrow morning.

Seeing that Duan Jiabao quickly composed himself, Luo Yan felt relieved and was about to go over to play games when her phone rang.

He took out his phone: "Hello, who is it?"

"Ah! The warehouse is on fire!"

"I see."

Looking at Luo Yan's expressionless face, Duan Jiabao asked curiously, "Shitou, what's wrong?"

Luo Yan said, "It's nothing. The courier company's warehouse caught fire, and my package happened to be inside. It was burned along with the package."

Duan Jiabao exclaimed, "Ah! The package was burned!"

Suddenly remembering something, she asked anxiously, "Which courier company did you use? My concert tickets are arriving soon, they won't also..."

Before she could finish her sentence, her phone rang. Looking at the unfamiliar caller ID, Duan Jiabao felt a bad premonition.

Sure enough, as soon as the call connected, Duan Jiabao plopped down on the bed.

"It's all over, it's all over... my concert tickets... my Lili... I've waited so long, I finally got to meet Lili and interact with him, and now it's all gone!"

As she spoke, her eyes reddened, and she began to cry softly, disregarding her image.

Clearly, losing the tickets to Lili's concert was a bigger blow to her than losing her job.

Luo Yan comforted her for a while, but the situation didn't improve, so she had to use her ultimate move, "Food!", to quickly place an order via her phone.

Duan Jiabao's two biggest hobbies are following celebrities and eating. Following celebrities is out of the question this time. These kinds of internal tickets that allow interaction with the audience are already very scarce. The concert will officially start in a couple of days, so there's no way to buy them now.

The only solution is to fight fire with fire, let her have a big meal, and fill the emptiness in her heart with delicious food.

After a while of comforting, Duan Jiabao finally calmed down. Just then, Luo Yan's phone rang. Glancing at the caller ID, it was, unsurprisingly, a food delivery call.

"Dabao, the big meal I ordered for you has arrived. I'm going to pick it up now, so wait for me patiently!"

Duan Jiabao grunted in response and watched Luo Yan leave the dormitory, still sniffling occasionally.

……

From the moment Duan Jiabao returned to the dormitory with a long face and said she was unemployed, Liang Shuang sat there silently watching her.

After talking with Li Mu, she realized that a reliable agent is essential if you want to build a successful career.

After reaching an agreement with Lilia, a large amount of traffic and attention will follow, and things will become more complicated and numerous than they are now. It's up to her to manage it all.

In the past two days, Liang Shuang has been thinking about the matter of an agent.

Logically, asking Li Mu for help would be the safest option for her, but after being rejected by Li Mu that day, her pride wouldn't allow her to ask again.

Perhaps she could achieve her goal by acting cute and shameless, but that's not Liang Shuang's style, and she wouldn't do that.

However, given her current connections and abilities, it would be extremely difficult for her to find a trustworthy agent without Li Mu's help.

She went through all her interpersonal relationships, but none of them could help her. The only exception was her roommate, Duan Jiabao, who was now working as an agent at a company.

Although I don't get along with her very well, she is a good person and trustworthy.

But why would someone with a perfectly good job leave a legitimate entertainment company to work with a nobody internet celebrity like her, where there's no guarantee of anything?

When Liang Shuang heard that Duan Jiabao had lost his job, she was actually a little happy. Since he had lost his job, the chances of him getting the job back were much greater.

However, Duan Jiabao's subsequent behavior made Liang Shuang sigh. It was just a concert ticket, why was he more upset than losing his job? Was it really necessary?

Would a girl who is not short of money, loves to eat, and is a fangirl who chases after celebrities everywhere be a perfect manager?

Looking at Duan Jiabao, who was still sniffling from time to time, Liang Shuang was wavering and couldn't make up her mind.

However, after thinking it over again, she couldn't find a second choice. After she reached an agreement with Lilia, her popularity would rise, and she would have more things to do, so she would need an agent to help her handle the trivial matters.

After hesitating for a while, Liang Shuang finally stood up. It wouldn't hurt to give it a try first, and if it didn't work out, she could try something else in a few days.

"Duan Jiabao," Liang Shuang called out.

Duan Jiabao was taken aback, turned around and looked at him, somewhat surprised, and said, "Liang Shuang, did you call me?"

Because of the incident on the bus, Liang Shuang's relationship with her roommates has never been good.

Liang Shuang rolled her eyes at her: "Is there anyone else in the dorm?"

Duan Jiabao looked around and shook his head.

Liang Shuang sighed inwardly again, thinking, "How incredibly slow-witted of me!"

However, having made up their minds, they couldn't give up halfway.

She continued, "I heard you lost your job!"

Duan Jiabao nodded dejectedly.

Liang Shuang said, "The concert tickets are all gone too?"

Duan Jiabao nodded, feeling even more depressed.

Liang Shuang smiled, took out the internal tickets to Lili's concert that Liliya had given her as compensation from her bag, and waved them in front of Duan Jiabao.

"Duan Jiabao, look what this is?"

Duan Jiabao's eyes widened instantly. These were the tickets to Lili's concert that he had been longing for!

Looking at Liang Shuang in disbelief, he said, "Liang Shuang...you...you..."

Liang Shuang glared at her: "What do you mean, 'you'? Don't you recognize the inside ticket for Lili's concert? I heard that with this ticket you can even interact with Lili."

Duan Jiabao nodded quickly, and asked in shock, "How did you get tickets to Lili's concert?"

At this point, her mind started racing, and she widened her eyes slightly in surprise, saying, "You didn't burn down the courier warehouse and take the tickets, did you?"

Liang Shuang glared at Duan Jiabao again, somewhat doubting her earlier choice. Could this really be her manager?

But, since things have come to this point, we have no choice but to grit our teeth and continue.

"Duan Jiabao, can't you use your brain? You really dare to think of burning down the warehouse?"

Duan Jiabao knew this was impossible, so he chuckled twice, stared at the concert ticket with hopeful eyes, and said, "Liang Shuang, I remember you didn't like Lili! Can you sell me this concert ticket? I'll pay a high price."

Liang Shuang glanced at her: "Not selling. Do I look like someone who's short of money?"

Duan Jiabao looked at Liang Shuang, who was dressed in a glamorous outfit and had heard that she was doing very well as a beauty blogger, and shook his head: "Doesn't seem like it."

Then, realizing what was happening, she pleaded, "Liang Shuang, please sell me this ticket. I've been waiting for this opportunity for so long."
