sweetest top actress in my home

Jiang Yuning was relieved when Lu Jingzhi hung up the phone because it seemed as though he did not find out anything.
After finishing the glass of wine, Jiang Yuning jumped into bed immediately. She could smell Lu Jingzhi's fragrance and her lips curved into a smile subconsciously. Everything seemed to be going smoothly for her and she was sure that the people of Emperor Entertainment would be having a sleepless night today.
Early the next morning, Jiang Yuning received a phone call from her former agent when she was having her breakfast.
"Yuning, I know that we have had some misunderstandings in the past but… I have some good news for you. The company will not pursue the sixty million yuan, nor will they require you to spend the night with their customer, as long as you come back to the company."
The agent spoke in a very respectful and humble manner, without a hint of arrogance at all. After listening to her agent, Jiang Yuning held back her laughter and asked innocently, "Why? Is the company facing some sort of difficulties?"
"Ku Jie is threatening the company. He has requested that the company reinstate you as an artiste, or else he will continue exposing more secrets concerning Emperor Entertainment and its artistes. The higher-level management is also having a headache because of this matter. Yuning, just remember that if you help the company, they will definitely repay your kindness."
"Is that the case? Are you sure you are not lying to me again?" Jiang Yuning asked as she laughed. "Alright then, since the company is so sincere this time, you can come and pick me up. I will go to the company to discuss the terms in detail."
"That is great! I will come over soon."
After putting down the phone, Jiang Yuning smiled to herself. Of course, she had to go back to the company so that she could get her revenge.
At ten o'clock in the morning, Jiang Yuning was escorted through the entrance of Emperor Entertainment by her former agent. This actress, which was bombarded and then dismissed by her company just a few days ago, was now escorted back to the company like a hero.
Jiang Yuning was greeted with many complicated looks on the employees' faces as she entered the vice chairman's office.
"Yuning, I am so happy that you are willing to come back. Look, I have already prepared the employment contract for you. Have a look at it and let me know if you have any other terms or conditions that you want me to add to the contract."
The vice-chairman was being very gentlemanly. However, Jiang Yuning had not forgotten that he was the one who had asked her to spend the night with the dark-skinned customer just yesterday.
Jiang Yuning curved her lip into a smile before taking the pen from her former agent and then, just as she was about to sign the contract, she suddenly stopped and said, "On second thoughts, no—I don't think I want to sign this contract after all."
"Why not? Don't you want to be an artiste anymore? We have already made plans and prepared all the resources for you…"
The vice-chairman hurried over to Jiang Yuning's side as he started sweating profusely. After all, the chairman had only given him until noon to get Jiang Yuning to sign the contract with them.
Jiang Yuning put the pen down before she stared at her former agent with a distressed expression on her face.
The vice-chairman noticed the expression on her face and he asked immediately, "Just tell me what your requirements are and we will try our best to fulfill your wishes."
"Him..." Jiang Yuning pointed at her agent and said, "I want him to disappear and never step foot in Emperor Entertainment ever again."
The two men stared awkwardly at one another and the agent was obviously more anxious. "Jiang Yuning, aren't you asking for too much? I was so good to you."
Good? To think that those words could actually come out of his mouth.
Jiang Yuning looked at the vice-chairman before she stared blankly at the contract in front of her and said, "So, can it be done or not? Otherwise, let's just forget it."
"Yes, it can be done," the vice-chairman quickly replied as he turned around to look at Jiang Yuning's agent. "You—you are fired!"
The agent stared at Jiang Yuning in disbelief. He had not expected her to exact revenge on him. The agent could not afford to lose his job and so he clenched his fists tightly and quickly knelt down before Jiang Yuning before he started begging her, "Yuning, please—just let me off this time."
"Why should I?" Jiang Yuning sneered and turned a blind eye to her former agent. She picked up the pen once again, but she was not willing to sign the contract yet.
"My dear empress, if you have any other requests, please do not hesitate to let me know."
Jiang Yuning lifted her head before smiling cunningly like a fox. "Well, why don't you get Shen Ru to come and apologize to me personally then? After all, she snatched plenty of my job opportunities in the past and she even left me a scar on my shoulder. I can still remember everything that she had done very clearly."
The vice-chairman rested his head against his palm as he listened to Jiang Yuning's request. He knew that this woman would not give in so easily and would definitely make some demands at this critical juncture.
"Alright then, I will ask Shen Ru to come over immediately. Is there anything else?"
The vice chairman's patience was already reaching its limits.
Jiang Yuning stared at her beautifully manicured nails as if whatever the vice-chairman had just said had nothing to do with her at all.
Shen Ru was invited into the vice chairman's office twenty minutes later. Shen Ru was not as glamorous as she usually was and she looked extremely haggard because of the ongoing scandal and exposure in the tabloids.
"Shen Ru, come and apologize to Yuning now."
The vice-chairman looked at Shen Ru and signaled her to act accordingly.
"Why should I apologize to her?" Shen Ru said as she folded her arms across her chest and rolled her eyes at Jiang Yuning.
Jiang Yuning did not try to forcefully get an apology but she stood up immediately and said, "Vice-chairman, I think you have to find another way to resolve this issue then."
"I said apologize now, Shen Ru!" the vice-chairman suddenly yelled. "If you do not apologize today, I will make sure that you are hidden from the public. After all, you are making the headlines in all the tabloid news right now."
Shen Ru was extremely humiliated but she did not want to be cast aside. She apologized very reluctantly. "Sorry."
"Who are you apologizing to?" Jiang Yuning asked coldly.
"Who do you think you are? If it was not because of Ku Jie's threat, do you think you would even be sitting here right now?" Shen Ru asked as she glared at Jiang Yuning.
"Is that what you think? Then let me tell you, you have just lost your only chance to turn this thing around for you." Jiang Yuning took out her cell phone and then immediately dialed Ku Jie's number before placing the call on loudspeaker. As soon as he answered the call, Jiang Yuning immediately said, "Ku Jie—"
"Ning-ning?"
"Shen Ru refuses to apologize to me," Jiang Yuning acted like a child and started complaining to Ku Jie.
Shen Ru and the vice-chairman listened to the conversation between Jiang Yuning and Ku Jie, and they were both too shocked to speak. How could Jiang Yuning be so close to Ku Jie?
"Is that so? Don't worry. I still have the video of her making out with the young boy—it is the extended version. I will immediately arrange for it to be released—"
As soon as she heard Ku Jie's words, Shen Ru quickly held onto Jiang Yuning's arm. "Jiang Yuning, I was wrong. I am really sorry. Please stop Ku Jie from releasing more videos about me."
Jiang Yuning laughed as she pushed Shen Ru's hand away. "So, tell me. Who is the worthless one now?"
"Me—me, I am the worthless one. I beg you, please just get Ku Jie to stop it," Shen Ru grabbed hold of Jiang Yuning's arm and she knelt down immediately and pushed Jiang Yuning's agent to the side as she continued begging for mercy.
"You—what is your relationship with Ku Jie?" the vice-chairman suddenly pointed his finger at Jiang Yuning and asked as he realized the gravity of the situation.
"Well, you could say that he is my brother," Jiang Yuning said as she smiled. "Sorry for only telling you now. I can tell you that my brother takes revenge very seriously. He is very upset that you have colluded with Lu Zongye to set me up."
"No…that is impossible. If Ku Jie was really your brother, why did he release that news about the scandal involving you and the director who was married?" the vice-chairman asked in disbelief.
"That is because I wanted to get out of my engagement to Lu Zongye. Anyway, my brother has plenty of news on Lu Zongye and the various artistes that he had been sleeping around with. Guess how I am going to repay Lu Zongye and Emperor Entertainment for setting me up?"
Jiang Yuning stood up immediately after she was done speaking. Since she was already done with her showdown, there was no longer any need for her to sign any contract with the company at all.
"No—Yuning…"
The vice-chairman quickly reached out to grab Jiang Yuning's hand, but his hand was quickly shoved away by Jiang Yuning.
Jiang Yuning waved her hand as she looked around the room filled with people with all sorts of expressions displayed on their faces.
"Oh, before I go, let me give you guys a heads up. The news that will be released later in the afternoon will definitely be bigger and more exciting!"
After she had finished speaking, Jiang Yuning stepped out of the vice chairman's office and walked haughtily through Emperor Entertainment.
When he saw her leaving, the vice-chairman hurriedly took out his cell phone to make a call to Lu Zongye. When the agent saw what he was doing, he quickly reached out to stop him. "Vice-chairman, don't do it—"
"Get lost."
"Vice-chairman, I advise you to stop contacting the third young master of the Lu family in the future. If you continue doing that, we would only die more terribly."
After all, the person who had Jiang Yuning's back this time was none other than Lu Jingzhi himself.
"You have already been fired so get out of my sight now!"
The vice-chairman was furious as they had all been played by Jiang Yuning.
How could he be played by that woman?
"You will really regret it…" The agent sat down on the floor out of desperation. He could tell that Emperor Entertainment was about to be destroyed.
