Quick Transmigration: Even Extras Want to Be Leading Actresses

Chapter 269 Theme Competition: The President's Sunny Day (9)

Even after Gu Shijiu leaves, Shi Qi's story must continue.

On this day, while he was once again battling against endless meetings and paperwork, Leng Lingfeng, the current president of his partner Jufeng Group, arrived.

Leng Lingfeng also had a face with a chiseled, rugged look, and Shi Qi felt something was off as soon as she heard the name.

Sure enough, the two had just sat down in the meeting room and hadn't even started talking when Xia Qingtian walked in with cleaning tools.

Seeing that there were people inside, she hurriedly tried to back out: "I'm sorry, Mr. Fu, the department head asked me to clean up. I didn't know there were people inside."

Before Shi Qi could speak, Leng Lingfeng said, "Go and pour two cups of tea."

As he spoke, his gaze lingered on Xia Qingtian, showing great interest in her.

Shi Qi: You're so good at giving orders, this person doesn't seem to be an employee of your company.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Leng, the event organizers have already prepared your tea and placed it on the table."

Shi Qi pointed to the two cups of tea on the table, indicating that...

They're a big company, after all; they don't need cleaning staff to make tea.

Leng Lingfeng's expression was serious: "I only want to drink what she makes."

Xia Qingtian looked up and finally saw the other person's face clearly: "It's you! You filthy scoundrel!!"

Hmm—Shi Qi became curious. Did they pair Xia Qingtian with another male lead? Judging from what she said, did they already sleep together?

Perhaps it was because Leng Lingfeng's expression was too blatant, Xia Qingtian's face immediately turned bright red, and she looked furious.

Leng Lingfeng smiled indulgently and said to Shi Qi, "Your company's employees are quite interesting. How could they only be cleaning staff?"

"Because she doesn't know anything, and doesn't even know how she got into the company," Shi Qi said truthfully.

"I think she's quite good. Why don't we let her work for me?" Leng Lingfeng didn't know where he got that idea from.

Taking advantage of the situation, Shi Qi made an outrageous demand: "I have no objection, but she broke an antique vase in the company, worth 5000 million. You just need to pay for it."

I originally wanted to take advantage of the cooperation, but with Xia Qingtian involved, the cooperation might not continue in the future, so I'll still try to make as much as I can.

"Are you robbing me?" Leng Lingfeng's usually expressionless face cracked a little.

"You don't have to pay, I'll just ask Xia Qingtian for it." Actually, the vase isn't that expensive, and it's impossible to get that much compensation in court.

However, since he is the female lead's new male lead, how could he bear to see his beloved woman go through a legal battle?

"I have something to do today, so I'll be going now. Let's talk another day." Leng Lingfeng didn't agree immediately, but Shi Qi wasn't in a hurry. As long as he was the new male lead, he would eventually agree.

A short while later, Qin Ruo came in again: "I just saw Leng Lingfeng and Xia Qingtian from Jufeng Group flirting."

Shi Qi understood; she had come to complain: "So?"

Seeing his calm expression, Qin Ruo was unsure of his attitude and left leisurely.

Shi Qi was working when Xia Qingtian suddenly stormed into the office, her face stubborn and her chest heaving, looking very angry.

Shi Qi was startled: What's going on now?

"How could you do this?" Xia Qing was so angry that her body was trembling.

Shi Qi was baffled: "What did I do?"

"You actually sold me to Leng Lingfeng!" Xia Qingtian's eyes welled up with tears. "I already said I would return that vase."

...Damn it, you're an idiot.

"Human trafficking is illegal." Shi Qi said coldly. "You can return the money for the vase and resign, or you can refuse to let him pay the money for you. Do you think I can force you to go anywhere?"

"I am a person too, and I have dignity. You can't do this to me."

Xia Qingtian finally couldn't hold back her tears and cried out, "I already sacrificed all my dignity by asking you and Miss Fu for money before, and you refused to help me. Now you're humiliating me like this. It's just too much!"

Shi Qi: Why are there so many mentally ill people who can't understand what I'm saying? Their IQ is even lower than Gu Shijiu's when they were kids.

"Ms. Xia, it's perfectly normal for Leng Lingfeng to want to recruit you to work for his company because he values ​​your... talent."

His compensation for the vase is also due to our company. If you have any objections to the figure I proposed, you can take it to court.

If you don't want to go to Jufeng Group, you can refuse Leng Lingfeng. No one can force you to work there.

But now that someone is willing to compensate me for the losses you caused me and get rid of you, I have no reason to refuse.

This was the first time Shi Qi had spoken so much to Xia Qingtian, but what she said wasn't very pleasant.

Xia Qingtian wiped away her tears and said bitterly, "Do you hate me that much?"

"I hate stupidity." Shi Qi didn't even raise an eyebrow.

“But that Miss Fu isn’t smart at all, and you don’t like Miss Qin even though she is smart.” Xia Qingtian thought of Gu Shijiu.

"How can that be the same?" Shi Qi blurted out, then paused for a moment before explaining, "I have double standards."

Xia Qingtian was truly wronged. As the female lead, this special setting that was different from everyone else should have been hers.

Shi Qi's words made her feel like something of hers had been stolen, but she couldn't bring herself to say it, or even admit it.

"I hate Leng Lingfeng," Xia Qingtian muttered. "You have no idea what he did to me?"

"That's your business, you don't need to tell me."

Shi Qi seemed somewhat indifferent, nothing more than someone who sold herself for a million dollars, only to encounter a CEO who fell in love with her at first sight.

Xia Qingtian was still immersed in her own world, crying and muttering, "You're just a heartless capitalist, all you care about is money. You can't buy everything with money."

Shi Qi scoffed: "Did you manage to borrow that million before? It wasn't given to you by Leng Lingfeng, was it?"

Xia Qingtian's face turned pale as she suddenly remembered that the annoying man was also her creditor.

Shi Qi knew she had guessed right when she saw her like this: "So you wronged yourself for money, and then you look down on the person who gave you money, oh, and you also look down on me, the person who didn't give you money. You're really willful."

Xia Qingtian felt that she had no self-respect in front of Shi Qi and tried her best to defend herself.

"If there were no other way, who would put their self-respect to the ground and let others trample on it for money?"

I will definitely pay you back. Don't even think about selling me like an object to someone I don't like.

After saying that, she left the office with her chest puffed out, as if she were about to go to war, slamming the door shut behind her.

Shi Qi shrugged. Only someone with nothing better to do would bother with her.

It's unclear what Xia Qingtian is angry about; she's completely uncommunicative and just talks to herself, possessing a kind of untainted beauty in her intelligence.

Perhaps this is the quality that the CEO likes, but unfortunately he's not a proper CEO and can't understand such excellent qualities.

Now that another president has appeared, Shi Qi feels that this competition should be coming to an end soon.
