Chapter 1949: Forced Into This
The photographer’s decision to call it a day embarrassed Zhou Hailan even more. Clearly, the photographer disliked her, so he did not put in a good word for her. Before he left, he had pointed out to everyone that she was wearing the ring.
Zhou Hailan knew that it was her responsibility when she lost the ring because she wanted to go to the washroom during the break. However, the shoot was not over yet. She had a lot of items on her body, so she was too lazy to take them off.
There was only a public washroom. It was not only dirty, but it was also very far away. Zhou Hailan did not even notice it when the ring on her finger had fallen off.
She only remembered that the ring was a little loose. When she went to the washroom, she seemed to have heard a sound, as if something had fallen into a pit. However, it was too smelly there, so she did not bother about it and left in a hurry.
“You have to pay us the penalty for breaking the contract if you unilaterally terminate it!”
Zhou Hai’s manager was so angry that he was gritting his teeth. “Lu Xiaoxiao will still work in this circle. They will still meet each other. It’s not good to let things end on a sour note.”
There was a faint threat in those words. After all, Lu Xiaoxiao was a newcomer, while Zhou Hailan was a famous star. Zhou Hailan knew many people in the circle, so it was easy for her to do something that would hinder Lu Xiaoxiao’s development.
“Jindo City is not your territory.”
That was the first time Lu Xingzhi felt that it was ridiculous to be threatened like that. No matter how wealthy the businessmen in Jindo City were, how could they be stronger than his brothers?
Even Lu Xingzhi could deal with Zhou Hailan’s company by himself.
They would not be as challenging to deal with as the Zhu and Qian families.
“Also, look at that lost ring. Is it only worth a few hundred thousand bucks?
Who told you that?” Lu Xingzhi clicked his tongue. “Please keep reading on B0nn0vel.c0m” “How naive.”
“That is a unique ring, and it has a matching necklace, bracelet, and bangle. The loss of the ring will affect the entire set. Therefore, Miss Zhou, you need to fork out the money to buy the entire set as the right compensation.”
Lu Xingzhi knew more about that kind of thing than Jiang Yao. That was because he would often contact two of his friends in YN. Sometimes, the company s designers would personally go to the mine to take care of the raw material. Therefore, Lu Xingzhi heard about some of the companyrs designs and operations from the conversations.
‘You’re forcing us into this!” The manager’s expression became increasingly ugly.
Jiang Yao said, “She has an obligation to bear the losses. She’s an adult now; she has to bear the consequences herself. It’s only right that she has to pay for the loss.”
‘Your company was the one who terminated the contract. I want to see how much money your company will be able to fork out!” Then, the manager shouted at Zhou Hailan’s assistants, “Why aren’t you organizing the things and booking the plane tickets?! All of you are just taking their salaries and not doing anything. You can’t even take care of a ring. I’m paying your salaries. Do you think you’re here for a vacation?”
Even though Zhou Hailan’s assistants were not young, they moved very quickly. The group left the filming location five or six minutes later. The people from the advertising company also packed their things and left together.
“Brother, Sister-in-law, what’s going on? Who’s Director Lu?” It was difficult for Lu Xiaoxiao to hold back for so long before she asked that question..
