Chapter 332: No One Can Bully You

Mo Fei’s album sales momentum was good. Although the first day’s sales were only 160,000, unlike Mo Fei’s previous comeback album, after the first day, the daily sales did not experience a cliff-like drop but continued to rise every day.


Perhaps due to the accumulation of word-of-mouth, the previous negative comments about Mo Fei’s album no longer held up, and there were also many real music critics willing to stand up for Mo Fei’s album in their own columns, so the daily sales growth was impressive. By the fifth day, the daily sales of ‘The Initial Dream’ album had reached 380,000!


This data was already very good. This daily sales volume could almost push Mo Fei back into the ranks of first-line singers. Of course, first-line singers weren’t categorized solely based on album sales. It also involves other factors related to their influence.


What was even more surprising was that the fierce rise in Mo Fei’s album’s daily sales was still being maintained. If this trend continued, it wasn’t impossible for Mo Fei’s album to hit platinum record sales at the end of the month!


Of course, no one could say for sure. After all, the normal album sales curve was parabolic. Even platinum records couldn’t continue to increase indefinitely. When the increase reached a certain peak, it would gradually decline.


The problem was that no one could estimate the full potential of Mo Fei’s album and when that peak might arrive.


But now there wasn’t much negative news about Mo Fei’s album. After confirming the quality of Mo Fei’s album, the media outlets that used to join in on the criticism and defamation of Mo Fei seemed to have forgotten about it and have switched sides and begun to cheer for Mo Fei.


If it were another hot-tempered singer, they might bring up old issues and confront them, but Mo Fei didn’t take it seriously. Whether people criticize, slander, or praise her, Mo Fei remained unmoved, as if it didn’t affect her at all.


On January 7th, the busy promotion period had not yet ended, but there was a signing event to attend in Jiangcheng. There were no other arrangements, so it could also be considered as a half holiday!


Mo Fei returned to Jiangcheng and participated in the morning signing event. Before she could go home to see her daughter, she was called back to the company by Niu Meiling, saying she wanted to discuss matters.


Mo Xiaojuan was worried that Niu Meiling would talk to Mo Fei about renewing her contract again, so she followed along.


As a result, Niu Meiling did not talk about renewing her contract. After chatting with them for a while, she actually talked about letting Mo Fei cooperate with Ju Jie in a play.


Niu Meiling actually didn’t want to talk to Mo Fei about this because now Mo Fei has gained momentum and was no longer the Mo Fei from a few months ago who faced setbacks and could be easily manipulated.


But she was also a bit annoyed by Ju Jie’s entanglement. Moreover, Ju Jie’s father, who was also her elder cousin, also called and asked her to take care of Ju Jie.


If it were someone else, Niu Meiling would have cursed out loud! What kind of businessman doesn’t understand the rules of the entertainment industry and just shouts about taking care of someone? Could someone really be successful in this industry by relying on relationships?


But after all, he was a relative, and this elder cousin was not just an ordinary wealthy man. He also held shares in Tianmei. His request could not be ignored by Niu Meiling. Out of helplessness, Niu Meiling could only seize the opportunity of Mo Fei’s return and talk to her face-to-face.


Nevertheless, when Niu Meiling made her request, she was very careful about her choice of words and tried to speak as tactfully as possible. However, Niu Meiling didn’t know that what she thought was nothing to care about was as precious as life in Mo Fei’s eyes!


When she understood that Niu Meiling wanted her to spread rumors with Ju Jie again, Mo Fei’s face was immediately covered with a layer of frost. She was like the eternal ice of the Arctic, refusing people for thousands of miles!


Before Mo Fei could get angry, Mo Xiaojuan stood up first and shouted, “This is absolutely impossible! Sister Ling, didn’t we agree on this? Our Sister Fei won’t be involved in any hype from the company. Why are you bringing up old issues again?’


Perhaps because she recently started working on Mo Fei and Yang Yi’s studio, Mo Xiaojuan raised her position a lot and didn’t notice that her outburst at this moment was somewhat offending her superior!


Niu Meiling furrowed her brows, but she did not lose her temper. Instead, she restrained herself and gently persuaded, “Isn’t this also considering the career development of both Mo Fei and A’Jie! Ju Jie is now also a very popular singer. If he cooperates with Mo Fei for a hype once, it will be beneficial for both A’Jie’s single sales and Mo Fei’s album sales!”


“Besides, Sister Ling is not asking Mo Fei to sacrifice anything. It’s just taking a few misaligned photos1with A’Jie, just like last time. You pretend to be unaware, and after this matter is hyped up, the company will organize a press conference for you to clarify…”


Mo Xiaojuan, however, sneered and said, “Sister Ling, Ju Jie’s song, hehe, if I remember correctly, it’s called ‘Mistress’, right? Letting our Sister Fei and him do this kind of hype, regardless of whether the fans will buy it after the clarification in the future, this will cause very serious image damage to our Sister Fei! Sister Ling, haven’t you considered this issue?”


Beside them, Mo Fei had already pinched the pleats of her skirt, her emotions rolling in her heart.


“Mo Xiaojuan, watch your tone! I’m your boss!” Niu Meiling finally couldn’t help it and scolded.


Under the scolding of Niu Meiling, Mo Xiaojuan’s momentum weakened and she stood there unsure of what to say.


Fortunately, Niu Meiling didn’t intend to have a fallout with them. Her face softened again and she started playing the emotional card, saying, “Mo Fei, we’ve known each other for more than ten years now…”


After talking about a lot of past events, she finally came back to the point and sighed, saying, “It’s not that Sister Ling is too harsh on you, but now is also a critical time for A’Jie’s career development. You also know his relationship with me, and his father asked me to help him. Sister Ling also had no choice but to ask you to support A’Jie. And this matter is also beneficial for you! Considering Sister Ling’s support for you over the years, can you help Sister Ling?”


It might seem like Niu Meiling was begging Mo Fei, but for people like them, as long as they could get things done, what did dignity count for?


However, Mo Fei stood up and turned her head, unwilling to look directly at her. She just said coldly, “I’m sorry, Sister Ling, I can’t do this!”


After speaking, she shook her head and left. For the first time in all these years, Mo Fei left without saying a word of courtesy!


Mo Xiaojuan lagged behind, and she smiled awkwardly at Niu Meiling, trying to make amends for Mo Fei: “Sister Ling, you see, Sister Fei has quite a temper. When she gets angry, she forgets all about etiquette. You’re a big-hearted person, so don’t mind it! But this matter really can’t be considered. Maybe you can consider which other star from the company would be suitable to cooperate with Ju Jie…”


Mo Fei didn’t care about what happened afterward. She asked Mo Xiaojuan to take her home with a frosty face.


At noon, Yang Yi happened to be at home and knew that Mo Fei would come back. He had prepared meals early on. But before he could bring the meals out of the kitchen, Mo Fei threw herself into his arms in grievance and hugged Yang Yi’s waist tightly.


“What’s wrong? What’s wrong?” Yang Yi was somewhat baffled but gently patted her back.


“Yang Yi, have you set up the studio you opened for me? I don’t want to renew my contract with Sister Ling. I want to be with you.” Mo Fei lifted her head, tears streaming down her face.


“What happened? Dear, don’t worry. Sit down and tell me slowly.” Seeing Mo Fei crying so hard for the first time made Yang Yi anxious too. But he maintained his composure and gently embraced her as they sat down on the sofa.


Mo Fei choked up and told Yang Yi everything that had happened today. She finally said in a somewhat collapsed tone, “I used to think that Sister Ling was a good person, but I didn’t expect her to harm me time and time again. I dislike her now. I don’t want to stay in Tianmei. Yang Yi, after my contract expires, can we open the studio together? You promised me, you have to take good care of me!”


Mo Fei felt very uncomfortable in her heart now, as if she had been betrayed. For the first time, she saw the true face of someone she had trusted for more than a decade and realized that that person was not good at all, nothing like the caring mother figure she had imagined.


That person did not treat her as a daughter, instead, they chose to betray her in the face of interests…


Mo Fei, whose thoughts were chaotic, felt that her worldview was somewhat collapsing. Fortunately, she still had Yang Yi to rely on.


“You said that Ju Jie asked Sister Ling, and then Sister Ling asked you to make a rumor with him?” Yang Yi asked with a frown.


“Um! Isn’t that too much? I was so angry at the time that I couldn’t speak!” Mo Fei pouted and said, feeling wronged.


“Yes, it’s too much!” Yang Yi’s eyes lit up with anger.


When he gave Ju Jie that song at that time, it was just because he thought it was fun and wanted to pit Ju Jie. He really didn’t expect that this song would end up affecting his own woman in the end!


But this Ju Jie was also courting death! Instead of singing well and being a variety show star, he provoked himself!


Yang Yi, like a cat, slightly narrowed his eyes. His gaze was sharp, but he didn’t let Mo Fei see it.


“Don’t worry, leave this matter to me!” Yang Yi gently stroked Mo Fei’s soft hair and comforted her, “With me here, no one can bully you!”


“Can you solve it? But I really don’t want to renew my contract with Sister Ling.” Mo Fei said with some surprise.


“Yes, I’ll solve it! There’s no need to renew the contract with her. Our studio is already set up. You can come over anytime. Even if you have to pay the penalty, it’s okay.” Yang Yi was now thinking about how to get justice for Mo Fei.2


“There’s no need to pay the penalty. Just let Ju Jie stop bothering me. After my contract expires, I will explain it clearly to Sister Ling.” Mo Fei still wanted to part on good terms.


“Don’t worry!” Yang Yi chuckled.


“I believe you.” Mo Fei’s sad mood finally received a little comfort. She hugged Yang Yi and smiled happily.


This silly woman, after learning that Yang Yi had asked Chen Yijie to invite her, had already started placing blind trust in Yang Yi’s seemingly unfathomable network of connections.
