After Rebirth, I Married the Archenemy of My Ex-Husband

Chapter 363

Bai Xiaotu returned to the company's dormitory.

Her whole person was actually somewhat collapsed.

But she still had to pretend that nothing had happened and go back.

There were three people living in the dormitory.

Each person had their own separate room, and it was also a slightly famous star who would have their own single room instead of squeezing into a bunk bed.

When she went back, her roommates Su Qing and Ren Xinyue were in the living room, doing yoga while watching TV. Seeing Bai Xiaotu come back, Su Qing greeted enthusiastically, "Why didn't you come back to the dormitory last night? I called you but you didn't pick up."

Bai Xiaotu hadn't answered yet.

Ren Xinyue said mockingly, "What's the point of picking up your call? She must have been with her sugar daddy. I heard your agent just got you a third female lead role. You must have been accompanying a guest last night, right? Stop worrying about her business."

Bai Xiaotu didn't say anything and went straight back to her room.

The room door closed somewhat forcefully.

Ren Xinyue glanced at the direction of the door and continued to mock, "Ashamed after doing it. When you first took the endorsement of An's Group, you even live streamed to promote it and got a hot search to gain some fame. And now you're pretending to be innocent."

"Alright, stop talking," Su Qing stopped her. "For those of us in this industry, who didn't get coerced a few times before getting famous, except for those with powerful backgrounds? You were the same. What's there to look down on others for?"

"I'm not looking down on her for doing this. I just look down on her for doing it and not admitting it," Ren Xinyue got up from the yoga mat. "She's being a whore but wants to keep a chaste image."

Bai Xiaotu just lay on the bed like this, because the bedroom was not soundproofed, so she could hear the mockery of the people outside very clearly.

That's right.

For those in their line of work, who didn't get coerced a few times without a powerful background?

Last night she had dinner with the producer, and her agent had hinted to her many times. In the end she only accompanied them drinking, without giving in. She reckoned that even if she drank herself to death, she still wouldn't accept being coerced. But she didn't expect to be secretly drugged. She hurriedly crawled out to find someone to take her away. As a result...

If she had known, she might as well have let herself be coerced.

She turned her eyes to see her phone ringing.

Her phone had run out of battery last night and had just been charged.

As soon as she picked up, she heard her agent yelling, "Bai Xiaotu, what the hell did you do last night?"

"I came back."

"Came back?! You were drugged and you could still come back? Tell me who you were fooling around with!"

Bai Xiaotu didn't answer.

"Bai Xiaotu, I told you clearly when signing the contract that you are not allowed to date during the contract period. Tell me honestly, are you secretly dating someone?"

"No."

"No?"

"Really no."

"If not, where did you go last night?!" The other side was clearly irritated.

Bai Xiaotu said, "Let's meet tonight then. I'll accompany the guest tonight."

"No need!" The other side said angrily, "I got a call from the producer early this morning saying they've cast someone else already. You lost the role."

Bai Xiaotu gritted her teeth, after all showing some emotional fluctuations.

"I'm telling you, Bai Xiaotu, if you don't cooperate with the company, you can wait to be finished!"

The other side hung up angrily.

Bai Xiaotu silently put down her phone.

Because she was unwilling to be coerced, her roles had been replaced by others again and again.

Up until now, apart from taking an endorsement for An's Group, she still didn't have any roles.

She hadn't had any exposure for a long time.

Once an artist loses exposure, no crew or TV station would want to hire them.

Bai Xiaotu began to doubt why she chose to become an actor in the first place!

...

Half a month later.

An Nuan finished the contract for the Nancheng New District project and began reporting to the board of directors.

The report went very smoothly.

An Nuan carried out innovative planning for the construction of Nancheng New District, referencing the construction plans of world-class metropolises, and planned everything to the utmost. After An Nuan finished explaining, applause broke out across the venue.

Everyone had no choice but to admire and even be completely shocked.

Some high-tech ideas were really unheard of before, but after An Nuan's explanation, everything suddenly became clear and was by no means far-fetched.

It was approved almost unanimously.

Until someone raised an objection, "The plan is indeed very good. In all my years, this is the first time I've seen such a bold yet practical construction plan. I believe that even if we don't choose this plan, the Urban Planning Bureau will. So under such a perfect plan, I personally feel that our quote is a bit too low."

At this, some people also began to agree with this point of view.

Since the plan could be so perfect, but only quoted a construction cost of 10 billion, it felt completely undervalued for this plan.

No matter what, they felt that the construction plan for the new city this time could definitely sell for 15 billion or more.

"I have also considered this," An Nuan said frankly. "If this was cooperation with another company, the quote would indeed be low. But have the directors ever thought that we are cooperating with the Urban Planning Bureau, and building the new city itself has a certain public welfare nature. I also wanted to make a big profit on this project, but after making big money, would it really be good for An's future development? The Urban Planning Bureau has a new leader now. This is the first project he is responsible for. He is eager to make achievements on this project. Why don't we give him a platform to develop on? Once he can develop with our help, it will be even more beneficial for An's Group's interests in the future. Plus, by building the new city under the banner of public welfare, we can also gain some goodwill with the public. In summary, I personally think that for the construction of the new city, money is not the only standard to measure our profits. We should cast a long line to catch big fish."

With these words, she naturally persuaded all the directors again.

"Old An, your daughter's vision is really admirable! You said that we've worked in the company for decades without understanding as clearly as a little girl. The young really surpass the old!"

"You flatter me." An Yanyuan said modestly.

But the pride in his eyes was not difficult to see.

He knew before that his daughter was smart, but didn't expect her to be this smart.

Originally An Nuan didn't even have the idea of working in the company. Now as soon as she entered she made waves.

He even felt like this was a windfall.

"If there are no objections from everyone, let's start voting now!" An Yanyuan said with strong momentum.

All the directors unanimously approved.

An Yanyuan announced, "The project is approved. An Nuan, don't let down the trust all the directors have placed in you."

"Yes." An Nuan replied respectfully.

The decision meeting ended.

An Nuan returned to her office.

Luo Si followed behind, "Boss An, did the board of directors agree? Won't they feel the price is too low?"

"No, it's settled," An Nuan said frankly. "Go bid next Monday. Notify An Hao to accompany me."
