<h4>Chapter 239: Might Be Getting Conned</h4>

    “Yeah, we just started out.”


    Not seeing anyone walking around, Ma Haodong asked again, “How many people are there in thepany?”


    “It used to be just the three of us, the boss, the reception and me. Now that we have a public rtions team, we have about 10 people.”


    Ma Haodong: “...”


    It was really a shock.


    Jing Xi actually signed her contract with apany that had less than 10 people?


    How is this even apany? It seems more like a hoax.


    “Jing Xi, did you and Xiao Yuqian get conned?” Ma Haodong asked worriedly, grabbing ahold of Xu Xiyan’s arm.


    “Nope! No one conned us. Our boss behind the scenes is really nice and the benefits are pretty good too. Being able to sign my first contract as a neer with such a goodpany...I’m really very lucky.”


    “No, listen to me! Jing Xi! I truly think that the two of you might be getting conned!”


    Ma Haodong’s tone was serious. “From what I know, an entertainment agency mainly relies on its celebrities for ie. Yet apany as small as yours only has one neer, which is you. What does thepany rely on for ie? When will the benefits promised be realized? Isn’t it obviously a fraud?”


    Xu Xiyan understood the logic, but the contract had already been signed, and she trusted Huo Yunshen on his rmendation. She did not feel that this was a fraud.


    “I understand your worries, but our boss would never con us.”


    Ma Haodong was really speechless. In his mind, Jing Xi was just a na?ve little girl that had no idea how sinister the world can be.


    Such blind trust will get her into deep trouble one day.


    “Jing Xi, listen! Terminate the contract with them! I can rmend you so you can join us at Huayin Entertainment. I promise you will get fair treatment in terms of resources and packaging. It will definitely be better than staying with Jingyue Entertainment!”


    Ma Haodong advised her as if he was trying to save a friend from a pyramid scheme.


    “No worries, Haodong! Thanks for your help! I find it quite nice here. Precisely because I’m a neer with little value, I have no fear of being conned.”


    Xu Xiyan had already made ns for the worst. Rather than going to bigpanies and vying for resources with much more famous celebrities, why not just stay on at Jingyue Entertainment? She believed that Xiao Yuqian had the ability to expand thepany.


    Before Ma Haodong could say anything else, Xu Xiyan had already pushed open the door, “Go on, have a look inside!”


    As they approached reception, Wan Dou appeared from behind and greeted Xu Xiyan and Ma Haodong. “Hi Jing Xi, Xiao Ma!”


    “Wan Dou, is Miss Xiao in?”


    Xu Xiyan was getting used to calling Xiao Yuqian “Miss Xiao” in front of outsiders.


    “She’s in her office now.”


    Wan Dou pointed her in the right direction.


    “All right then, you go ahead with your work! I’ll go look for her.”


    Xu Xiyan took Ma Haodong into Jingyue Entertainment, and they headed to the CEO’s office. Xu Xiyan knocked and stepped inside.


    “Qianqian, haven’t you finished work?”


    “Oh, it’s Yanyan!”


    Xiao Yuqian looked up from her desk and smiled at Xu Xiyan. But as she saw Ma Haodong behind her, her expression sunk. “Why is he here?”


    Xu Xiyan hurriedly exined, “Qianqian, I brought him here to have a look at our newpany.”


    “Go ahead then!” Xiao Yuqian lowered her head and did not make a sound.


    Ma Haodong’s gaze fell onto Xiao Yuqian, and he felt down.


    Does she really hate the sight of me that much?
