Chapter Forty-Three Reversal

  A girl was kidnapped by a rapist and locked in a secret room. When she was finally rescued, five years had passed.

  Public opinion was in an uproar, condemning the rapist while also sympathizing with the young girl.

  Donations kept pouring in and the hospital waived all treatment costs.

  Everything went perfectly as expected by the audience, but who would have thought that the girl would defend the rapist in front of the microphone.

  As a result, public opinion quickly turned around, and the girl was subjected to numerous attacks. Even her relatives were unwilling to see her because she said she was willing to wait for the rapist.

  Wu Yuan stood there stupidly, looking at the young girl in front of him.

  He's no fool and knows that Yu Xianrong made this decision, the sacrifice will be huge. She'll lose a lot of fans, countless rumors will surround her.

  Well, let's just say for example, when a beauty hugs dog shit, it will naturally smell very bad. And Wu Yuan is undoubtedly that piece of dog shit.

  "Miss Yu, I think it's better to give up. This matter should be left to professional actors. I have a way to get out of this. Wait for me to make a big reversal in court."

  After some thought, Wu Yuan still shook his head, although he very much wanted to become famous.

  Becoming famous is a good thing, at that time there will be countless beauties throwing themselves at him, and he won't have to worry about anything in his next life either. Yu Xianrong has undoubtedly opened up a golden path for him. The problem is, he's still underage.

  Bang!

  A sharp pain on his forehead, Yu Xian's hand holding the rolled-up book slammed into Wu Yuan's head.

  "Sign now, hurry up!"

  "By the way, I forgot to tell you that after the criminal liability is over, there's still the civil compensation. Your streaking caused many accidents and now someone has filed a civil lawsuit. Do you think the few hundred thousand in your hands can solve the civil lawsuit? It might even go up to hundreds of millions!"

  Yu Xianyong picked up the treaty with a tone of "it's a pity that iron cannot be made into steel".

  "Hundreds of millions?"

  At this point, Wu Yuan was really scared. He had been considering the criminal issue all along, but he forgot about civil liability. The funds of over 100 million yuan would be sold out and could not be compensated.

  "Put on a good show for me, you heartless scoundrel!"

  The girl's voice was still very satisfied, especially Wu Yuan's final excuse.

  There are a few men who can remain true to themselves in the face of such temptation, and Wu Yuan's repeated refusals reveal his true intentions.

  Nowadays, such people are really rare, let alone a great reversal of fortune, Yu Xianrong can't believe it.

  Will this guy come up with a mental illness certificate at that time? Hmph, it's just a dead duck's hard mouth.

  =============

  In a city of an empire thousands of miles away, King Li Shimin of Qin furrowed his brow.

  The legal advisor of Baosheng Film Company called him and Yu Xianrong prepared a contract for Wu Yuan.

  Xian Rong, how can I put it so you'll be satisfied?

  Yu Xianrong was very much liked by Li Shimin, and Yu Xianrong also liked her father. Unfortunately, the relationship between the father and daughter was in a strange state.

  Li Shimin's several times made Yu Xianrong, who grew up with her mother since childhood, unwilling to forgive her father. Her choice of a career in the entertainment industry also made Li Shimin unhappy.

  The woman from the Li family, what is she doing running into that dirty circle? Even if a piece of porcelain goes in, it will be dyed black.

  It was a sentence from Zhangsun Wuji that moved Li Shimin.

  "If Xian Rong becomes famous, it will also be a kind of protection for her. At the same time, she is far away from us, and perhaps that's a good thing for her."

  Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng's relationship was not good, Li Jiancheng always found ways to suppress Li Shimin. Politics is a very dark thing, it's better for Yu Xianrong to leave this circle.

  Li Shimin also acquiesced in the arrangement of Changsun Wuji for Yu Xianrong, and Yu Xianrong also liked the performing arts industry - even so, Li Shimin did not want his daughter to continue her career in the performing arts, after all, no one was more aware than him of how dirty it was inside.

  After the chaos in Yunzhou City, he issued an ultimatum to his daughter, asking her to leave the entertainment industry and focus on studying and recharging at university for a few years before considering her future.

  But who would have thought that this stubborn daughter would actually come up with such a plan?

  How can this be? How could she have any connection with someone like Wu Yuan? This is a lifelong stain!

  With a wry smile, Li Shimin picked up the phone, knowing he had to play a very bad role.

  =============

  "No signature, just no signature!"

  Wu Yuan shook his head desperately, showing his dissatisfaction with the contract.

  "No box office share, just a remuneration of 20 million, I absolutely won't agree."

  "You...!"

  Xue Wei'er looked at this guy with anger, wondering if he was really foolish or just pretending to be.

  Although in Yu Xian Rong's eyes, money is a small matter, even if it means being taken advantage of by this guy, why should she give it to him?

  She will have to help him with the lawsuit, hire a lawyer and so on, which will cost at least 20 million yuan. If she also gives Wu Yuan a share of the box office earnings, then in other people's eyes, Yu Xianrong is not a kind-hearted ambassador, but a foolish woman who is losing money!

  New people have new prices, industries have industry rules. Actors who get box office dividends are not first-line stars?

  Giving a newcomer and a superstar a chance to collaborate, and then giving him a share of the box office revenue, this is something that has never been heard of before. If Yu Xianrong does this, 100% people will think she's being blinded by love.

  A female star who was kidnapped by a naked man, not only did not pursue the other party's crime, but instead helped the other party to sue, pleaded for the other party, and even signed such an impossible agreement. What does this show?

  There have been many posts online about Yu Xianrong and Wu Yuan, with some people saying that Yu Xianrong is not the kind of innocent little girl she seems to be, and that she has never met a man before, so when she suddenly encountered Wu Yuan, a big bad wolf, she was completely overwhelmed.

  Many people are guessing what happened in Wu's room ten minutes ago. If the box office revenue is to be shared with Wu, it would be impossible to clear up even if one jumps into the Yellow River.

  "Xue sister, I think we can give him a 1% share, anyway, I don't care."

  "But I care, I really care!"

  Xue Wei'er was shouting at Yu Xianrong, "Do you want to die? There are plenty of people outside who want to work with you, but you insist on finding this good-for-nothing. Are your eyes blind?"

  "Wu Yuan, sign the contract, Sister Xue said so too. Except for some small movies with unknown prospects, no one will agree to a newcomer's profit-sharing contract. This contract is very beneficial to you..."

  On one hand, Yu Xian Rong was amused by the two fools' quarrel, on the other hand, she began to mediate.

  "Miss Yu, I've said it before, I'm not suitable for acting in movies, especially with the scandals surrounding me now. If we collaborate, it would be like a piece of dog crap falling onto a fresh flower, and soon everyone will stink."

  I appreciate your kindness, thank you. If you're willing to help me, find a good actor and make this movie well, then just promote it as my screenplay later on.

  "This way I also gained a reputation and you won't be fertilized by rural manure, isn't this a win-win situation?"

  "You..."

  Yu Xian's face was slightly pale and her lips were pursed, she was also somewhat moved in her heart. It was at this moment that her phone rang.

  "Uncle, hello, okay..."

  Then, a scolding came over the phone, and Changsun Wuji severely reprimanded his niece. At the end of the call, Changsun Wuji said that from now on, Yu Xianrong should not show her face in public anymore, and it's best for her to be a noble lady.

  The little girl did not retort, facing the elder's scolding, only politely answering with words like "understood". Her eyes became slightly red, and when Zhang Sun Wuji hung up the phone, a glimmer of tears rolled in her eyes.

  Then, there was another phone call. On the other end of the line was a woman's lazy and sweet voice. Zhang Sunwu did not mention Yu Xianrong wanting to make a movie with Wu Yuan, but only said that his funds were a bit tight, so he temporarily transferred all liquid assets from Baosheng Company, and also stated that if he wanted to defend Wu Yuan, she would help find a lawyer.

  Facing Yu Xian's resistance, Chang Sun Wu said that as long as the male lead was changed, everything would be easy to discuss. He himself admired Wu Yuan and thought the script was good, it just wasn't suitable for Wu Yuan.

  It seemed to be a predestined arrangement that after Zhang Sun Wu's phone call ended, Li Shimin's phone call came - although it was not until much later that Wu Yuan knew that these three people really had no appointment, and this was just a coincidence. However, the three consecutive phone calls made Yu Xianrong, who had always been very polite, become irritable.

  After she hung up Li Shimin's phone with a sentence: "You go and train those women outside, I don't need you to take care of me." The little girl cried like a cat, squatting on the sofa.

  Wu Yuan, who was standing beside him, heard it very clearly. On the phone, Li Shimin asked Yu Xianrong to end her performing career from now on.

  Tears fell from the girl's face drop by drop.
