Xue Shiyu nodded gently, her voice filled with shame as she confessed, “I never anticipated that thepany would make such demands after I signed the contract… However, Mr. Mike informed me that my contract is a full ten-year brokerage agreement, which thepany has already financed. They provided me with an advance of one million Hong Kong dors, and now I must adhere to thepany’s arrangements. If I don’t, they might cklist me, leaving me without any ie and unable to find work.”


    Charlie frowned and inquired, “What do you need this million for? Are you facing some difficulties?”


    Xue Shiyu nodded, her voice low as she replied, “I intended to continue my studies, but my family encountered some issues, and I umted a significant amount of foreign debt, which prevents me from pursuing my education…”


    She continued, “I had nned to find a job right after graduation to earn money, support my family, and help my parents pay off their debts as quickly as possible. But then I unexpectedly met Mr. Mike on the streets of Tokyo. He offered to sign me as a singer.”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    “Mr. Mike even promised me a signing fee of one million Hong Kong dors. This amount was enough to help my family navigate through our crises, so I decided to sign…”


    Charlie pressed on, “So, he signed you to a ten-year full brokerage deal and only provided you with one million Hong Kong dors?”


    Xue Shiyu quickly rified, “Yes… But for me, one million was a substantial amount… I had no other options at that moment…”


    Charlie nodded in understanding and asked, “If you didn’t have to worry about liquidated damages or family debts, would you prefer to be a star or to continue your education?”


    Xue Shiyu immediately replied, “I would choose to continue my studies… While I enjoy music, I never aspired to be a star. After joining this industry, I’ve learned many unsettling truths. Given the chance, I would go back to school…”


    Charlie asked, “When does your master’s program begin?”


    Xue Shiyu answered, “In September…”


    “Alright,” Charlie said earnestly, “It seems we are meant to cross paths, and I will definitely take care of your situation today.”


    Mike, overhearing Charlie’s confident tone, sneered, “What a joke! She signed a contract with mypany, and I won’t let her go! Many have tried to take someone from me, Mike, but none have seeded!”


    Liu Jiahui interjected, “Come on, you’re just talking nonsense. Didn’t the eldest son of the Li family take a woman away from you?”


    “You…” Mike’s face flushed with anger as he retorted, “That instance doesn’t count! Back then, I, Mike, showed him some respect! It was my generosity!”


    Liu Jiahui shrugged, saying, “Whatever you say, you’re the boss—you can dictate whatever oue you want.”<fn5271> Read full story at FιndNovel</fn5271>


    Just then, the secretary approached with an update: “Chairman, there’s a group of people waiting downstairs to see you. The first one ims to be Zyaire…”


    Mike chuckled, “Haha! MR. Zyaire is here! Let’s invite him up!”


    Liu Jiahui looked at him with a hint of pity and advised seriously, “You might want to reconsider now; it might not be toote…”


    “Enough with the nonsense!” Mike snapped, his frustration evident. “Now you want to plead for that kid? It’s far toote!”


    Liu Jiahui sighed and instructed the secretary, “Alright, please bring them up…”</p.as></p.with>
