Too much?
At this moment, Yan Luoshui’s phone rang again.
She answered, and a resigned voice came through,
“Miss Yan, Huang Ruihan is making more demands.”
This was an employee sent by Yan Luoshui, known in the company for having a good temper, but even they couldn’t take it anymore.
“This time, he wants us to provide him with a villa worth no less than 30 million, for him to stay in, and a sports car worth over 4 million so that he can go out at night to pick up girls.”
...
The female employee said helplessly.
Hearing this, Yan Luoshui was even angrier and glanced at the time.
“Forget it, agree to his demands for now. There’s only two or three hours before it starts. Get him to come quickly and do a rehearsal to avoid any issues at the last minute.”
In the end, Yan Luoshui could only agree.
She didn’t have a choice; she had made promises to some female employees in the company and couldn’t go back on her word.
Besides, the finale of the event could only be done by this Huang Ruihan. Her company’s employees couldn’t hold the stage.
“Yes.”
Hearing this, Chu Chen, who was about to speak, said nothing more.
Later, Yan Luoshui and Chu Chen arrived at the hotel banquet hall they had booked.
Since yesterday, Yan Luoshui had sent people to set it up.
At the front was an elevated stage set for the performances of this event.
In addition to Huang Ruihan’s performance, there were also some acts by employees from Yan Luoshui’s company.
“Miss Yan.”
“Miss Yan, you’re here.”
Seeing Yan Luoshui, the employees started greeting her.
Among these people, there were those setting up the venue and those preparing for the program.
They had been preparing since a week ago.

Today was the third time they came early for rehearsal.
The employees preparing for the program were paying a lot of attention to this event.
Right until the banquet was about to start, Huang Ruihan hadn’t come for rehearsals.
As the employees arrived, the banquet began.
Chu Chen and Yan Luoshui sat at the front.
The host went on stage, and the program began.
As time passed, Chu Chen and Yan Luoshui were chatting and weren’t paying much attention to the performances.
An employee came over and said to Yan Luoshui,
“Miss Yan, there are only three or four performances left before it ends.”
“Okay.” Yan Luoshui nodded.
“But…”
The employee said awkwardly,
“Huang Ruihan still hasn’t come.”
“What?”
Hearing this, Yan Luoshui was quite shocked.
She had been chatting with Chu Chen and hadn’t had the chance to manage Huang Ruihan.
Rehearsing early could be ignored, but being late and not showing up was too much.
His previous demands for a villa, sports car, and a series of requests were all agreed upon.
He’s just a second or third-tier celebrity, and one who might fall out of popularity at any time, yet he’s acting so unprofessionally. Even top A-list celebrities don’t behave like this.
Just then, a flamboyantly dressed woman walked over.
“Miss Yan, our Hanhan wants to talk to you.”
This flamboyant woman was Huang Ruihan’s manager.
“He’s finally here?”
Yan Luoshui questioned.
The performance was about to start, and instead of preparing, he wanted to create problems?
“Fine.”
Having to beg Huang Ruihan to perform, Yan Luoshui had no choice but to get up.
“I’m going too.”
Chu Chen also stood up, as the second-largest shareholder and vice president of Angel Entertainment Group, and an honorary vice president of the Jiangnan Musicians Association, he still had some influence.
Led by the flamboyant woman, Chu Chen and Yan Luoshui reached the backstage.
Backstage, a young idol with heavy makeup and an earring was smoking a cigarette, sitting idly.
Behind him, a girl was giving him a shoulder massage, looking very relaxed.
This young star was Huang Ruihan.
Seeing Chu Chen and Yan Luoshui walk in, Huang Ruihan didn’t get up and casually said while he was lounging,
“Miss Yan is here.”
“What on earth are you pulling?”
Seeing Huang Ruihan’s demeanor, Yan Luoshui immediately got angry.
She was the one paying for him to perform.
Yet, Huang Ruihan behaved like he was the boss, while she, the payer, had to beg him.
How could this be?
“Nothing, Miss Yan, it’s just that I’m about to go on stage, and I wanted to talk to you about the performance fee.”
Huang Ruihan still had a careless attitude.
“The performance fee you offered is a bit low.”
Hearing this, Yan Luoshui was enraged.
She had offered 500,000 for the appearance, which was already high for a second or third-tier celebrity.
After all, he only needed to perform for a few minutes, singing and dancing, not needing to do anything else.
And he thought it was too low?
“Just add a little, a million for the appearance.”
Huang Ruihan laid bare his intentions.
Yan Luoshui fully understood.
From the start, Huang Ruihan planned this, intending to raise the appearance fee at this critical moment.
A million for an appearance, that’s equivalent to the fee for a top A-list star.
“Now, you have two choices: either raise the performance fee to a million, or I’ll just cancel my performance.”
“You can find whoever you like.”
Finally, Huang Ruihan blatantly tore off the facade, rudely stating.
“You…”
Cancel the performance at this time?!
“I refuse, you’re free to leave.”
After agreeing with her employees, Yan Luoshui suppressed her anger repeatedly, but she couldn’t take it anymore.
At worst, she’d cancel the finale and give employees more bonuses, and that would be the end of it.
“The finale won’t happen.”
Yan Luoshui was firm.
“No need, I’ll do the finale.”
Chu Chen stepped in and said calmly,
“Just prepare a piano for me.”
Chu Chen was confident in his piano skills.
A finale performance? No problem.
“You?”
Hearing Chu Chen’s words, before Yan Luoshui could respond, Huang Ruihan burst into laughter.
“Kid, what can you do?”
Huang Ruihan questioned Chu Chen disdainfully,
“Sing, dance, rap, can you?”
“And you think you can perform the finale?”
“Do you think the audience will pay attention to you?”
Originally, he thought Yan Luoshui would agree to raise the performance fee, but her firm stance surprised him.
He thought about negotiating to lower it slightly to 800,000.
Yet, Chu Chen stepped in, instilling rage towards him in Huang Ruihan.
Blocking his money?
“What do you amount to!”
Throwing away his cigarette, Huang Ruihan stood up and waved towards the stage.
When he appeared on stage, many female fans screamed.
“Huang Ruihan!”
“Huang Ruihan!”
“Huang Ruihan!”
At this moment, when Huang Ruihan was at his peak popularity, he naturally had many crazy female fans.
Hearing the countless screams, a smug smile crept onto Huang Ruihan’s face.
Returning from the stage, Huang Ruihan arrogantly said to Chu Chen,
“Kid, did you see that?”
“That’s my popularity, my fans.”
“Do you think you can go up there, do you have even one percent of my popularity?”
