Chapter 7 - Changing Agents

At first, the matter of Qin Jiran's webpage post was kept within his fan circle, but it didn't stay that way for long. Soon, more and more people caught on until the fire spread to the major web forums and the mass media.

By afternoon, a number of the media channels on TV was broadcasting his public confession as the latest hot news. Though none of them could claim it as the confirmed truth, they speculated that it was Qin Jiran himself who had posted the confession. With this, the topic garnered more attention, and the topic trended everywhere.

The names of those who had been involved in a rumor with Qin Jiran before were all dug up and taken into consideration for the great debate on the identity of Qin Jiran's true love.

[Who is Film Emperor Qin's true love? Leave a comment on the top ten female stars!]

[Who is the most compatible with Film Emperor Qin? Take a guess, everyone!]

[Film Emperor Qin, you must not have a true love. You belong to everyone. You can't belong to one individual person!]

Qin Jiran chose to be an observer as he watched the news and the web buzzed about him. His expression shifted multiple times, but ultimately, he refrained from doing anything.

He wanted to announce that he liked Su Yanyi, but he couldn't. Even if he himself didn't mind, he had to be considerate of Su Yanyi. He refused to implicate her and make her into a topic for the public to discuss. Therefore, his best option now was to remain silent and neither admit nor deny.

Actually, his omission could also be considered a way to deal with the predicament. This way, he wouldn't need to worry about the possibility of himself unintentionally saying something that would add fuel to the fire.

For many of the celebrities in the entertainment circle, anything that wasn't a scandal or a harmful rumor could simply be ignored. The talk did not affect them, and who knows? Maybe it would actually improve their images.

Nonetheless, there were evidently still quite a few people who were dissatisfied with Qin Jiran's silence. For example, his agent: Tao Yuke.

As Tao Yuke walked into Su Yanyi's office, his resolve was already starting to crumble. It wasn't that he felt bad about coming to tattletale. It was because he was actually a bit scared of the cold air that emanated from Su Yanyi's entire being.

"President Su, I take it that you've heard about Qin Jiran's situation?" Tao Yuke inquired cautiously, a fawning smile plastered on his face.

"Mhm," Su Yanyi acknowledged. Inside, she was feeling a bit displeased with the agent. This man's smile was so disgusting. Wouldn't seeing it make Qin Jiran uncomfortable? Should she get him a new agent then?

"Um, Qin Jiran decided to make unauthorized decisions by himself and caused rumors to spread. He refuses to let me intervene, and the effects of this incident are not good. There are already several fans protesting, and as you know, he won't listen to me. Can you help me persuade him? Although he's the Film Emperor now, taking things too far in this circle can still be harmful to his career. I'm doing all of this for his sake, but he's being a bit too ungrateful. I was only able to say a few words before he started to threaten me about changing agents. It's really disappointing."

Tao Yuke himself was a rather well-known agent in the entertainment circle. He was an expert at currying favor with others, and he possessed both means and connections. His only fault laid in his stinginess.

After he took on Qin Jiran and elevated him from a newcomer status to being the Film Emperor, Tao Yuke naturally became even more arrogant and complacent.
