The Wife of Hades

Then, he marched out of the room without even looking back, and the other people followed until the only two people left were Li Yilan and her manager.

Li Yilan was shaking on the ground, tears flooding out of her eyes. After everyone had gone, she looked up and saw her manager standing a short distance away from her. Her eyes immediately lit up as she crawled over to manager Yang and grabbed onto her leg, "Manager Yang, you have to help me!"

Yang Qi looked down at Li Yilan without any pity and scoffed, "Help you? Why would I help you?

Li Yilan's expression stiffened as she looked up, "You. . . You are my manager! Manager Yang, you have to help me! Please!"

Yang Qi rolled her eyes and took a step back, "I do not have to help you! Plus, I am not your manager anymore. Didn't you hear? You are getting kicked out of the company!"

Li Yilan's shoulders were shaking by now as she shook her head, unable to believe that her manager was treating her like this, "You -"

Yang Qi interrupted her, "You should have known this would happen when you were so rude to everyone in the company after you had the littlest bit of fame. Don't you know anything about being humble?"

Yang Qi laughed and reached over to grab the folder with the document to cancel the contract with Li Yilan, "Hurry up and sign this so I can go give it to my boss."

She threw the folder onto the ground, and Li Yilan immediately kicked it away, "No, no! There must be something you can do! It's not that bad! It's just that b****! She did all of this! There must be a way to turn the tables around again! I can't just be ruined like this!"

Yang Qi gritted her teeth together in annoyance, "Why don't you understand?! Even if there is a way to get past this storm, the company won't do that for you. Did you really think that you were some A-level celebrity after some dumb interview? Have some common sense, okay?"

Li Yilan was glaring up at Yang Qi with red eyes now, but Yang Qi kept going.

"You were nothing but a sudden blowup in the industry, and with the company's experience, even if it weren't for this incident, your fame would still die down as quickly as it came. Looking at you. . ." Yang Qi looked at Li Yilan's face and scoffed, "At most, you can probably make it off as a ninth or tenth tier celebrity."

"You disgusting -" Li Yilan screamed, trying to crawl over to Yang Qi. How dare that lowly manager speak to her like this?! She was famous! Yes, she was famous!

Yang Qi walked away slowly, rolling her eyes, "Yes, maybe the company can help a celebrity to get over a storm like this easily. The public relations department can easily come up with a solution, but why would the company waste it's time and resources on you?"

Yang Qi grinned, enjoying Li Yilan's expression right now very much, "Know your place, Li Yilan. Now hurry up and sign this if you don't want the company to bring it to court. Since I was your manager for some time, I will be nice and tell you that signing this document is a much better choice than going to court. Then, not only will you have to pay for the compensation of breaching contracts with the companies you signed with, but you will also have to pay this company when you lose the case."

Yang Qi's smile widened as she bent down, picked up the contract and flung it to Li Yilan again, "I have other work to do too, and I don't want to waste time here with you. I'll give you ten seconds."

Li Yilan looked at the contract and the pen next to her. No! She wasn't going to sign this! She can't sign this and just leave like this! How embarrassing would that be?! This wasn't the end!

"10. . . 9. . . 8. . . 7. . ." Yang Qi frowned, "If you don't sign it, I will go tell the CEO right now that you want to go to court for this case and have the entire country laugh at you."

"6. . . 5. . . 4. . . 3. . . 2. . ."

Li Yilan's expression was incredibly ugly right now as her fingers shook. She also did not have the time the put on makeup this morning, and the difference was quite big. Yang Qi frowned, wondering why she used to be so patient with such a hopeless person like Li Yilan.

"On -"

Li Yilan quickly picked up the pen and her hands shook as she grudgingly signed the contract on the bottom of the page. Yang Qi smiled as she bent down, snatched the folder from Li Yilan and marched out of the room, leaving Li Yilan alone.

"AHHH!!!" Li Yilan screamed, pulling at the roots of her hair aggressively, kicking into the air. Why?! Why?! How could this happen?!

Yesterday, she was still the talk of the country! Why is - It is all An Luxia's fault?! Li Yilan's eyes narrowed as she glared a hole into the wall, "An! Lu! Xia!"

---

Li Yilan slowly stepped back into the apartment they lived in. After Li Yilan had received her pay for the drama, they had been looking for new and more high-end apartments to live in, and they had just paid the down payment for an apartment in the center of the city two days ago.

When she walked in, her parents immediately ran over, both of them with shock on their faces. They must have seen what happened.

"Yilan, what happened?! Was it that disgusting girl?!"

Li Yilan glared at her parents, very angry with no place to release her anger, "Yes! It was your disgusting, annoying daughter!

He Muya was slightly taken aback, but she quickly turned around, "I'll go call her now and have her take it down and apologize for lying! That disgusting girl!"

She called An Luxia and the call went through quickly, "An Luxia, you ungrateful brat?! How could you do that to your sister?! Take it down now and apologize for lying!"

There were a few seconds of silence before An Luxia scoffed, "Lying? Who is the one lying? Your beloved daughter was the one who lied first and spoke trash about me. She even tried to have someone take away my innocence!"

Li Yilan's eyes immediately widened when he heard that, and she fell back, her back hitting the wall behind her. How did she know?! So. . . did the man not succeed? No way!

He Muya had obviously seen the interview, but she did not care about it since Li Yilan had received more money from that interview, "So. . . So what?! I don't care! Take it down now!"

An Luxia had no words for these shameless people, and she did not care to waste the time talking to them, "I won't take it down and it will stay up there forever. Instead of trying to get me to do something I won't do, why don't you and your precious daughter think about how you will fix the issue? By now. . . Li Yilan is probably under a huge pile of debt, right?"

Upon hearing that, Li Yilan's lips twitched in anger as she lunged forward, snatching her mom's phone away from her and slamming it onto the ground, stepping on it aggressively as she screamed curse words at An Luxia.

However, An Luxia had hung up the call already.;

He Muya stared at her phone and then at Li Yilan. That phone was new! She had just bought the latest model from the shop last week!

"Yilan, Yilan! Stop! Stop!" It took several minutes before Li Yilan finally calmed down, and He Muya looked at her and then at Li Qiyu, "Yilan. . . What was that girl talking about? What does she mean you are under debt?"

Li Yilan's eyes quivered as she took a step back, since her parents did not know about the fact that she was under debt, "Mom, dad, you know the money I gave to you a few days ago?"

Her dad immediately stepped back, "What about it?"

Li Yilan lifted her chin up, trying to be more confident, "I need it. Because of what happened, all the companies want to cancel the contract so I need the money."

Li Qiyu immediately crossed his arms together, "Well, find a way to get the money! We don't have money!"

"What do you mean you don't have money?! I gave you half a million a few days ago! That is my money! I need it now."

He Muya immediately ran forward and grabbed onto Li Yilan's arm, "Yilan, we really don't have the money! You know, we spent it on the new house, and me and your father. . . Well, we bought some other stuff."

Li Yilan's mouth fell open, "What do you mean you have no money anymore?! That was half a million! Half a million!"
