Chapter 627: Chapter 627

Others recognized the voice as He Jinxia’s and thought to themselves this was bad, discussing someone’s former boss in front of them and getting caught, what a mess!

Luckily, He Jinxia didn’t seem to care about their discussion and, without minding the slightly awkward atmosphere, said confidently:

"Your guesses are correct, it’s very difficult for overweight people to survive in a girl group. When I first joined JY, I wasn’t considered fat, but later on, I got heavier and heavier, my weight seemed out of control, suddenly spiking."

"Because of my physical condition, there were many dance moves I couldn’t do, and many events I couldn’t attend, gradually I became a marginalized figure in the team, having fewer events in a month than Wen Ningning does now, two would be considered a lot for me, sometimes not even one in a month."

"Although they didn’t explicitly ask me to leave the group, I could feel it, especially since I often missed events, and my relationship with the other members grew more distant."

"One day, when I woke up, looking around at the empty room and my obese figure, holding a photo of my past self with a bright smile and good figure, I made up my mind:

I couldn’t go on anymore, I’d go insane if it continued! So, I decisively proposed to leave the group."

"It just so happened that it was the fourth year since the formation of the group, also the time for JY to renew the contract with the company, my request to leave was quickly approved, and then the company transferred me to my current agent."

He Jinxia shrugged her shoulders and said in a relaxed manner, "I never shy away from mentioning the JY girl group, you don’t have to whisper about it either, you can say it in front of me, I don’t think it’s anything shameful."

The others nodded in agreement, indeed, there were plenty of disbandments and mergers in the entertainment circle.

It’s possible for a celebrity to be with Company A today and jump to Company B, A’s rival, the next day. These are all very normal events.

At the end, He Jinxia seemed to recall their earlier discussion and casually mentioned, "As for Wen Ningning, her situation is no secret within the group."

The atmosphere suddenly became even more silent; everyone looked at each other, but nobody dared to speak up.

Although He Jinxia said what she said, they still cared, being caught red-handed speaking ill of someone was too awkward.

The one who broke the silence was a new staff member, a loyal fan of He Jinxia, who held preconceived notions; even though He Jinxia’s departure from JY went smoothly, she still believed JY had acted dishonorably.

"When you first signed the contract, everyone was lured by the company’s promise of cultivation. Your physical condition wasn’t poor at the beginning, and although your weight surged later, with proper care and effort, I believe you could have slimmed down. Why didn’t JY help you recover instead of simply opting for termination?

JY’s agents are too heartless, they only look at profits. The moment you lost your value, they kicked you to the curb."

This new staff member was also fearlessly outspoken, daring to discuss the entertainment circle’s secrets openly, while such topics were usually only whispered behind closed doors.

He Jinxia looked at the person who spoke, a smile flickering in her eyes, "In nature, it’s survival of the fittest, and the entertainment circle is no different. There was nothing I could do about my uncooperative body.

But in the end, everything is predestined, perhaps the hardships I faced in JY were meant to drive me away, to seek a broader horizon.

If JY had valued me back then, willing to guide me step by step in losing weight, I might not have achieved what I have today. As for the future, no one can say for certain."

The new staff member, upon receiving He Jinxia’s response, blushed with excitement and couldn’t help but ask, "Fat Emperor, I’m your loyal fan, may I have your autograph?"

He Jinxia smiled, "Of course you can."

Some of the staff around them suddenly came to their senses, cursing themselves for being stupid. How could a JY compare to He Jinxia in terms of significance? Follow current novels on Novᴇl_Fire(.)net

They should not have been too timid to say anything in front of He Jinxia earlier, missing the opportunity to curry favor with her. Instead, a newcomer took the lead!

With that thought, some staff members couldn’t hold back any longer and hurriedly spoke up before He Jinxia left—

"It’s good that you’ve left JY. If you hadn’t, who knows how long it would have taken to discover your talent for acting."

"Although it’s normal in the entertainment circle to be swayed by interests, JY’s consecutive acts of abandoning members is disheartening. Who knows when another member might be thrown out to take the hit next?"

"And who knows if there were other reasons for Meng Wan’s departure. She couldn’t have been driven out by JY, could she?"

He Jinxia paused in her steps to leave and answered that question, "She wasn’t driven out by JY. She decided to leave the group on her own."

Someone asked in confusion, "Why did she leave the group?"

He Jinxia honestly answered, "Because she felt that the current JY is no longer the JY it used to be."

Others didn’t quite understand and wanted to ask more, but He Jinxia took the initiative to reach for her throat and said, "My throat’s a bit uncomfortable, I’ll be leaving now."

Hearing this, nobody pressed her further.

After He Jinxia left, some people took out their phones to open Weibo to check for the latest updates on the Wen Ningning incident. Suddenly someone exclaimed, "The JY girl group has released a statement!"

The JY girl group is a pop group with a Weibo account specifically for the group, one Weibo for the team, and individual Weibo accounts for each member.

Big announcements such as the group’s schedule, endorsements, and official promotions are posted on the main group Weibo. At this moment, the JY girl group’s Weibo had a photo prominently pinned to the top.

VJY Girl Group: "Recently, some media have fabricated that a member of the girl group, Wen Ningning, was ’abandoned by the team,’ ’used by the team,’ ’the team heartlessly allowed Wen Ningning’s scandals to unfold,’ ’the team threw out Wen Ningning to protect other members rather than her,’ and so on. These are all false rumors!

Wen Ningning has been with JY for six years, and the two sides have always maintained a friendly cooperative relationship. There have been no issues like unfair distribution of resources or her being shelved. JY respects Wen Ningning’s wishes and is willing to reach a settlement with her. Details regarding the dissolution of the contract cannot be disclosed for now. Please pay attention to subsequent announcements.]

In the bottom right corner of this photo, the stamp of the JY girl group was affixed, as well as the stamp of Tonghua Entertainment, meaning that this statement had been approved by Tonghua Entertainment, and they were also willing to let Wen Ningning terminate her contract!

Someone couldn’t help saying, "Based on the statement, Wen Ningning should be able to resolve the penalty fee with JY. Leaving isn’t so bad, especially since she hasn’t reached the end of her contract, and early termination usually requires paying a large penalty fee."

"Yeah, some celebrities even go to the extent of suing their former bosses to get out of their contracts. If they can settle this amicably, that’s not a bad outcome. Looking at this, JY seems to have some conscience."

Others were nodding in agreement when yet another person exclaimed in surprise, "The agent of the JY girl group has issued a statement on their personal account!"
