Ou Yunchen worked alone in his study. He knew far too little about the entertainment industry.
Like ordinary people, he thought investment would yield returns, but the current entertainment and cultural industries were no longer simple businesses.
Perhaps the main reason for this failure could be traced back to his ignorance of the industry's internal competition.
While breaking through entry barriers, they would inevitably face strong retaliation from other entertainment companies within the industry.
In this way, Xi'ou Entertainment would become a target for its competitors, coupled with the fact that tbp was indeed a formidable girl group with considerable strength and promising future development.
It seemed Xi'ou had to re-strategize for this "product"!
It was late into the night. Ou Yunchen stretched. He had thought of a solution to tbp's current problems.
But suddenly, he realized there was an unexpected guest at home!
Perhaps because the dining room was too quiet, Ou Yunchen was surprised after finishing his work. Had the drunk Xi Ya left on her own?
He went to the dining room and found Xi Ya still kneeling on the floor, though she seemed to have dozed off in a daze.
Her body gradually tilted forward, her head drooping as she was about to fall onto the nearby dining chair. Suddenly, she woke up again, patted her face to stay awake, and then resumed her kneeling posture.
Ou Yunchen walked over and squatted down to help Xi Ya up.
Xi Ya: "Huh? Boss? I'm not asleep, I'm not asleep..."
Ou Yunchen supported her as he led her to the sofa.
This idiot was too foolish. He had told her to kneel, and she had actually stayed kneeling, her knees already red and sore.
It would be a lie to say he wasn't concerned. Ou Yunchen was genuinely touched by Xi Ya's foolish method.
Xi Ya: "Boss, I'm not sleepy..."
Ou Yunchen: "Lie down properly."
Xi Ya: "Boss, I still want to tell you..."
Ou Yunchen: "Stop talking, just sleep."
Xi Ya could no longer hold on. She leaned back against the comfortable sofa and her eyes immediately closed.
Before Ou Yunchen could cover her with a thin blanket, Xi Ya had already fallen asleep.
Ou Yunchen stood and looked at Xi Ya, sighing.
He had never said he would fire Liu Jinhua, but he also could not tolerate an employee making decisions without authorization.
Perhaps, as Xi Ya had said, Liu Jinhua didn't deserve to die. Keeping her would allow Xi'ou Entertainment to atone!
***
The next morning, Xi Ya rolled over on the sofa and fell onto the floor...
This jolted her awake.
Sobered up, Xi Ya looked at the furniture around her and suddenly realized she was still in her boss's house!
Xi Ya covered her mouth, trying not to make any noise. She looked at the clothes she was wearing.
Thankfully, they were all intact!
She then looked at the sofa, and thankfully, there were no traces of anything!
Just as Xi Ya was about to stand up, her knees ached. The pain made her remember how she had thrown a tantrum at her boss after getting drunk last night and shamelessly begged him not to fire Jin Hua Jie.
Xi Ya smacked her forehead hard. It was too embarrassing!
Jin Hua Jie had told her not to eat spicy food, and she should have also been told to quit drinking!
Xi Ya cupped her hands around her throat and, hunching her back, quietly called out, "Boss? Are you home?"
She strained her ears, but there was no sound in the house.
A sticky note caught Xi Ya's eye.
— Note Contents —
Breakfast is on the dining table. Go for training after eating.
— End of Note Contents —
Xi Ya glanced towards the dining room. Sure enough, breakfast was already laid out on the table.
Xi Ya: "Has the boss already gone to work?"
She picked up a sandwich and took a bite.
Xi Ya: "Wow! The boss really can host parties and cook in the kitchen!"
