When An Yuan had just debuted, she had been a blank sheet of paper and did not know anything. Thus, she had signed such a contract without fully understanding it; this contract had a period of several years.
Now, she had been in the industry for a long time and had become smarter. She would not accept such a contract again.
“Little Yuan, if you’re unsatisfied with the contract, we can discuss it and sign a new one.”
“No need.” An Yuan was uninterested.
Xue Zhen panicked. “You won’t sign it again? Why don’t you decide on the contract? Name your terms. If the company accepts it, we’ll agree to it!”
An Yuan did not want to talk to her anymore. It was a complete waste of time. Although it was not easy to make Xue Zhen lower her head and change her ways, she knew very well what kind of person Xue Zhen was.
In Xue Zhen’s eyes, An Yuan was just a money-making tool. This was the truth. Moreover, she and Xue Zhen could not communicate at all. They did not see eye to eye on many things, and they could not get along.
An Yuan stopped talking and walked toward Su Shengjing.
Xue Zhen stood behind her and looked at her determined retreat. She fiercely gritted her teeth, and a trace of unwillingness and coldness flashed past her eyes.
If… An Yuan is determined to leave no matter what and I can’t keep such a big money tree, then no one else can get it.
I have spent a lot of effort to make this money tree. I can’t let others take advantage of it for nothing!

An Yuan was very depressed along the way as if there was something stuck in her heart. It was only when she saw the little girl that her mood improved.
Especially when she saw Su Jiu turn her head and smile sweetly at her. An Yuan instantly felt that the gloomy clouds in her heart had been pushed aside by a small hand, and bright sunlight was shining down on her.
“Pretty Sister!” The little girl abandoned Su Shengjing behind her and ran toward An Yuan. She hugged the actress’s legs with her small hands and looked up at her with her tender little face. “Big Sister, have you finished taking the photos?”
An Yuan looked down at her and smiled. “Yeah, then I came to look for you immediately. I didn’t lie to you, did I?”
“Yes! Luckily, Pretty Sister didn’t lie to me, or I’d be a puppy!”
An Yuan really liked this little girl. She couldn’t help but bend down to pick her up. Although it was a bit strenuous, she still wanted to carry her.
Once again, she thought how wonderful it would be if she had a daughter who was like Little Jiu.
If I could see a little angel like her every night after returning home, how blissful would that be?
“Pretty Sister, you said you would bring me to eat ice cream fondue.” After staying in the studio for a while, Su Jiu had started to feel hungry.
“Okay, I’ll bring you there now.” An Yuan smiled and turned to look at Su Shengjing. “Can you lend me your daughter for a while?”
Su Shengjing felt a little helpless. “You’re already carrying her. Why are you still asking if it’s okay? Even if I say no, you won’t be happy, right?
“Of course! I’ll definitely lend my daughter to you today.”
An Yuan’s smile deepened. She carried the little girl and walked out, temporarily forgetting the unpleasantness from earlier.
Su Shengjing was a little jealous when he saw the little girl hugging An Yuan’s neck. The two were talking and laughing, looking very intimate. But he couldn’t do anything about it. He could only sigh and follow them.
Su Shengjing deliberately kept a certain distance from An Yuan and did not get too close to her, in case the paparazzi took a photo of them and wrote about them. If that happened, he and An Yuan would not be able to explain themselves.
