Chapter 896: Chapter 896

"This Liang Junwei is a total sleaze! He’s always trying to cop a feel no matter who he meets."

"He abuses his power just because the general manager is his uncle and wreaks havoc in the company."

"Yeah, he acts like the company is his family’s property."

Bai Chenxi and Zhao Qiankun stood at the back of the crowd.

The former said nothing while the latter was sweating, terrified, and walking on thin ice.

Zhao Qiankun’s heart sank — it’s over! It’s over!

Not even the Great Immortals could save him now.

Suddenly, Bai Chenxi took a big step forward and, right in front of everyone, kicked Liang Junwei.

The kick was executed with style and decisiveness, knocking Liang Junwei down, sprawled like a fool on the ground, unable to get up for quite some time.

"Zhao Qiankun, tell me, how many times has this happened now?" Bai Chenxi stood at the center of the hall, one hand in his pocket. His refined demeanor juxtaposed with that decisive kick was a visual shock.

The girls on the side screamed instantly.

"To make a gentlemanly boss so furious he kicks someone, Liang Junwei must be something else."

"The boss is so cool! That kick was so satisfying!"

"Right! Liang Junwei, that bastard, really went overboard."

"No wonder he’s the boss, I’m so impressed with him. Impossible as it may be, I still want to marry him."

The crowd was abuzz with chatter.

The whole discussion was about how stylish Bai Chenxi was!

Yan Yuan was speechless.

But Liang Junwei brought this upon himself today, leaving her no choice.

If he just takes it this time, learns his lesson, and behaves in the future, it wouldn’t have to impact Zhao Qiankun so much.

When Bai Chenxi questioned Zhao Qiankun, Yan Yuan knew that not only would Zhao Qiankun lose his position as deputy general manager,

He wouldn’t be able to stay in Fengying either.

But ultimately, it’s because he didn’t discipline Liang Junwei properly.

Repeatedly using his position, he acted lawlessly.

No wonder Bai Chenxi was repeatedly disappointed in him.

Previously, he was let off with just bonus deductions and demotions, which was already very lenient.

"Boss, I’m sorry! I’ve already fired Liang Junwei. He’s no longer part of Fengying. I’ll call the police immediately to have him arrested." Zhao Qiankun knew it had only come to this point.

No one wanted it to end .

But what was the alternative?

That nephew of his is like a pig who never learns.

He was frustrated, not willing to let it ruin him!

Left with no other choice, he resorted to this.

Bai Chenxi frowned slightly at Zhao Qiankun’s words, "Then why are you still standing there? Make the call!"

Zhao Qiankun was so scared he couldn’t hold his phone properly.

The security guards, alerted by the disturbance, hurriedly rushed over.

Bai Chenxi, without hesitation, pointed at Liang Junwei and ordered the security, "Arrest them for me. All security personnel gather outside. I want to see since when the company’s access has become so lax. Are non-employees allowed to come and go as they please? Does Fengying think it’s a market here?"

The security personnel felt extremely wronged.

Liang Junwei had just been officially fired this morning, the paperwork completed within an hour.

They had only relaxed a bit, not directly supervising his quick departure, leading to this incident.

It seemed the boss was really angry.

"Yan Yuan, you set me up. You’ll meet a bad end!" Liang Junwei, even as he was being dragged out by security, was unruly and yelled angrily.

Yan Yuan shrugged as she watched him being taken away, "His misconduct isn’t my problem."

Bai Chenxi glared at her.

Others might not know the details, but he absolutely did.

However, Liang Junwei was indeed too reckless, keeping him around would only be trouble.

This opportunity was perfect to kick him out for good.

Multiple errors could be forgiven.

But with Liang Junwei brought up, he couldn’t stay either.

Bai Chenxi looked at Zhao Qiankun and said, "Terminate the contract according to labor law!"

Leaving that order, he turned and strode upstairs.

Yan Yuan blinked and sighed.

Can’t blame her, it’s either his fate or Zhao Qiankun’s for not properly disciplining his nephew.

Liang Junwei often flaunted Zhao Qiankun’s identity to bully and deceive, and committed disgraceful acts against women.

If he hadn’t first shown inappropriate interest in her, she wouldn’t have acted so harshly.

It’s for the best; getting rid of Liang Junwei means less trouble in the future!

Yan Yuan returned to the dormitory.

Xiao Jiemei was engrossed in studying her script with the door closed.

Seeing Yan Yuan return, she excitedly grabbed her hand.

"I was worrying about not having anyone to go through the script with. Come help me out," Xiao Jiemei said excitedly. "I’ve been studying it closely and I’m growing more fond of the character Mo Hua."

"Trust my judgment," Yan Yuan said with a cheerful smile. "How’s your research going?"

"Not bad! Just some parts I’m still unsure about. Yan Yuan, let me show you my performance," Xiao Jiemei was fully immersed in her script by now, even mimicking Mo Hua’s gestures and speech patterns.

Yan Yuan was naturally happy to help her.

After all, Xiao Jiemei was her first friend.

If Xiao Jiemei got into the crew with her, filming wouldn’t be so boring.

That afternoon, Yan Yuan and Xiao Jiemei studied the script together.

The days passed quickly.

Soon enough, it was the day of the audition.

Yan Yuan and Xiao Jiemei arrived early to line up outside the audition room.

There were quite a few people this time.

The competition for roles included not only newcomers like them but also some veteran actors.

When Yan Yuan and Xiao Jiemei arrived, they were considered early.

Yet some people were even earlier.

Mu Chiheng and several male newcomers were lined up ahead of them.

Upon seeing Yan Yuan, Mu Chiheng greeted her with a smile.

Yan Yuan was full of confidence, "Of course!"

With Chu Chen’s guidance, she was sure to pass.

The director for this shoot was the well-known Qiao Si.

In his fifties, he’d shot many famous large-scale dramas.

Yan Yuan later learned the secrets of Fengying.

This investment, although for a web series, was a major production.

Even the lead character’s costumes, hers, required a large budget, and they hired a famous director.

It seemed they were determined to create an annual hit, aiming for Sword Immortal to shine at this year’s National Drama Festival.

"What role do you want to audition for?" Mu Chiheng asked.

Yan Yuan pointed to the name Zhu Luo in the script and smiled, "So, do you think I have a good shot?"

Mu Chiheng didn’t answer directly, instead smiling, "I’m competing for the role of Tianqi."

Yan Yuan was momentarily stunned.

If Mu Chiheng succeeded, wouldn’t she and he be playing a couple?

Yan Yuan grinned, "Great! Go for it. I hope everyone succeeds."

Mu Chiheng smiled slightly, "I hope so too, that we all succeed."

As they chatted and laughed, Su Meili arrived, surrounded by people.
