Chapter 516: Chapter 516
Chenxi had never expected Qingshen to say such a thing, and a trace of astonishment flashed in her eyes.
"I think that if news of my collaboration with Miss Jian were to be released, it would cause a sensation, greatly dispersing the scandal involving Ling Momo. Miss Jian’s popularity would also increase significantly. Subsequently, many news sources would likely focus on Miss Jian’s concert, and by the time the Spring Festival is over, the issue with Ling Momo will have been mostly forgotten. At that time, we can plan for the long term."
Li Qingshen laid out his plan in one breath.
His method was undoubtedly the best. Original content can be found at NoveI~Fire.net
It would save Jian Chenxi and also leave a way out for Ling Momo, leaving everyone deep in thought.
The conference room was very quiet.
After a while, Li Qingshen spoke again and asked, "If nobody has any objections, let’s proceed as I proposed."
The ES vice president thought for a moment and said, "I have no objections."
The others nodded along, indicating they had no objections either.
Just as the ES vice president was about to declare the meeting over, the previously silent Ling Momo suddenly raised her head and spoke resolutely, "I have objections."
Everyone in the conference room turned to look at her.
"Objections?" someone asked in surprise. "What could you possibly object to? This is better than being permanently banned from the entertainment industry!"
Ling Momo’s lips were pale. She lowered her eyelids and said, "I choose to be permanently banned."
Li Qingshen turned his head to look at her, his gaze filled with anger.
He had put so much effort into arranging everything for her, and she was rejecting it!
Yes, he could use his identity as Enson, as Li Qingshen, and insist on not banning her, but he did not want to do that.
Given his proud nature, he didn’t even care to be in the same meeting with these people, but he did all this because he was worried that Ling Momo would be criticized for climbing the ranks through connections!
He had such good intentions, how could she not understand?
Li Qingshen’s expression darkened on the spot, and he said, "Ling Momo, what did you say?"
Ling Momo could feel Li Qingshen’s anger and was somewhat scared, but she stubbornly repeated herself, "I choose to be permanently banned!"
"I can apologize to the jury, but I will absolutely not say publicly that what I said at the Music Festival that day was all a misunderstanding!"
"Ling Momo, this is not the time for you to be stubborn! You should know that the whole world is watching your scandal!" Li Qingshen was driven near insanity by Ling Momo’s stubbornness, and with cold fury burning in his eyes, he commanded without room for argument, "If you don’t want to disappear from the entertainment circle forever, then do as I say!"
Ling Momo knew that Li Qingshen didn’t want her to be permanently banned; she also knew this was an opportunity he was fighting for her. However, the thought of having to help clear Jian Chenxi’s name was too much for her to accept!
She despised Jian Chenxi to the bone. Moreover, unknown to others but known to her, her predicament today was all thanks to Jian Chenxi, so she would never compromise!
With that thought, Ling Momo said, "Do you think that by doing as you say, I can salvage anything? Everyone will only accuse me of slander against Jian Chenxi!"
"You needn’t worry about that; someone will write the apology letter." Li Qingshen’s expression grew even colder.
"I’ll say it one more time, I won’t do it! I’d rather be permanently banned, never mix in the entertainment circle again, and I won’t speak on behalf of Jian Chenxi!"
