Three days ago, Yuna secretly signed a contract and was brought to a facility. She was caged in a room, locked away from the outside.
Fifty million dollars. An astronomical sum!She was forbidden from outside contact. She knew that in order to prepare her for pregnancy, they needed to ensure her health, so that her body would be better suited to carry the baby.Yuna was entitled to three exquisite meals a day. Ham, bacon, bread, beef – everything was almost too extravagant. She knew that those foods were beneficial to people preparing for pregnancy, she only swallowed them down.Yuna dared not disobey any orders, as absolute obedience was one of the conditions stated in the contract.Thus, even today, she faithfully followed her employer’s secretary and anxiously came to this private institute to undergo medical examinations.This employer of hers was very mysterious; she had not seen him even once. She only knew of the contract, and that signing it would entitle her to a remuneration of fifty million dollars . This amount should be enough to help her father overcome the financial crisis!She did not dare to mention this matter to her father. When she left, she only left behind a note and did not say a word of goodbye. Because of the lengthy period of surrogacy, she would probably be unable to go back home anytime soon. Thus, she temporarily did not have to worry about facing her father’s apprehension.According to one of the conditions in the contract, she needed to be put under close observation all the time until she conceived. When this condition was met, before the next day, one million dollars would be deposited in advance to her father’s bank account. She would be paid an extra sum if she bore a baby boy as mentioned by the secretary.Surrogacy. Hah… It was laughable. She had thought of everything to earn money. She couldnt help but be moved by it.In financial straits, she chose this road looked down on.By the sea. A luxurious sea suite villa.The villas around this area were presented with the best views and, thus, the exorbitant land prices were a given.After a simple tidying up, an extravagant limousine brought her to the villa. The vehicle quickly departed after she was given some instructions.The secretary told her that, tonight, he would arrive.Yuna took a deep breath. She was no longer in the mood to appreciate the beautiful sea view. She tugged at her luggage and entered the villa with a heavy heart.Night fell. In a luxurious bedroom, the curtains were tightly drawn and blocked all the lights.Within the silent room, she took a bath and quietly lay down in the king-sized bed. She was requested to wear a blindfold. She lost her sense of sight, yet her sense of hearing was greatly enhanced. She could even hear the sea breeze blowing and the waves crashing onto the shore.Without the blaring lights and the hustle and bustle of the city, the silence could make one’s hair stand on end.Soon after, she heard the sound of an engine running getting louder as it approached from the distance. A vehicle halted in front of the villa and its engine turned off.At that moment, her usually calm heart suddenly tightened as she felt an unprecedented nervousness and restlessness. When the footsteps walking up the stairs grew louder as they drew closer, she could no longer maintain her calmness!As she was feeling uneasy, the door flung open.Along with the sound of steady footsteps, Yuna could sense that someone had come in and stopped by her bedside. She was absolutely nervous by now and promptly sat up on the bed.He… He’s here! Is it my employer?She was on tenterhooks when one side of the bed slightly dipped – a clear indication that someone had sat on it.Yuna, who was feeling perturbed, leaned her back against the wall for support. She felt absolutely awkward and was glad that in front of her was stifling darkness. She could only barely make out a towering figure before her, yet her heart still beat with helplessness.Although she could not see his face, somehow, she was able to sense his strong, overwhelming presence, especially his cold line of sight. He had the air of aggressiveness unique to a ruler, as if he were a noble, arrogant overlord. As for her, she was just like a tribute brought to him in ancient times.Yuna opened her mouth and spoke in a somewhat vague manner, “You… Who are you?”The man remained mum. He moved his body and slightly bent forward, leaning closer toward her.Yuna only felt his looming presence get nearer. Immediately, the imposing figure pressed down on her and completely imprisoned her under his body. Her body shook from the effort of withstanding his body weight. She curled up into a ball, and then she was no longer able to move. She nervously held her hands before her chest. She was nearly suffocating!Not waiting for her to react, the man narrowed his eyes and pulled her clothes straight up. Her soft, milky white skin was exposed to the air. Suddenly, his large hands delved in—“Wait!” she exclaimed with a trembling voice. “I… May I take a look at you?”“Why?”His youthful yet deep voice was akin to red wine, rich and mellow. It was a husky voice that could draw people in.“I can’t see anything… I’m scared….”He scoffed and, with an extremely deep voice, said, “You don’t have to look and you don’t have to be scared.”The girl’s delicate body had yet to develop fully. She was still so pure, and her slender waist could easily be held in his one hand. His icy fingers rubbed her lips harshly and played around with them nonstop. “Just close your eyes.”How delightful the tender touch was, just like silk.His fingertips were a little moist and chilly, and when they came into contact with her warm skin, she could not help but shrink a little. The darkness in front of her eyes only made her more afraid!His thin lips left her body. He apparently thought that her one piece was in the way, since he tore it apart in the next second.He missed her a little!During his business trip out of the country, he missed this woman every time of the day.He missed her looking embarrassed, missed her glaring at him in anger, and even more so, missed her slowly blossoming like a flower.She was absolutely enticing.He thought of her so much he seemed to have been poisoned.It appeared that the poison on him could only be cured by her.She was his poison but oh boy, she was also his cure.When he kissed her, the faint fragrance of cigarette smoke lingered between their lips and teeth.Yuna’s heartbeat suddenly increased in pace, and an affectionate blush appeared on her cheeks.At first, the kiss had a domineering feel to it; he kept attacking and she kept retreating. This went on until she reached an impasse.Gradually, his kiss became gentler in seeming comfort of her emotions.Weston sat up halfway, with one hand supporting his body and the other firmly looping around her waist. He shifted slightly and leaned on the sofa la
She was selected by a famous director to be the female lead in a major film without any prior acting experience.Director Lin was a renowned award-winning director in the entertainment industry. He was usually critical with role selection, yet he picked an unknown newcomer this time.No one acted in his show that did not make it big afterward. Many were dying to star in his film, even for a supporting role, without much success.It was not only that. Many stars did not qualify to attend Huanyu’s annual gala, but this Yun Shishi, not only was she personally invited by Gu Xingze, she also appeared as his partner in it. Putting all this aside, just the fact that she could sign a contract directly with Huanyu’s headquarters made many go green with envy.The more frightening thing was that she had a star agent supporting her from behind...It would be a miracle if this newcomer did not shoot to fame.Many newcomers were jealous of her. They were envious of her topnotch resources without ha
Qin Zhou, Yuna, and June had a simple lunch that noon before they returned to the office for a respite.June, after adjusting herself into a comfortable position, took a siesta in the authentic leather chair.Qin Zhou, meanwhile, took this chance to tour Yuna around the headquarters and showed her to each floor.Huanyu Tower soared high into the skies; it was extremely magnificent. Standing at 50-story tall, it was a building within sight but beyond reach.This was her first time taking a closer look at this entertainment empire, which had captured the attention of the entire globe.Huanyu owned two large-scale production companies and three mainstream media outlets. It encompassed everything from movies and soap operas to records. This massive entertainment empire operated entirely within this tower.As the famous star-making factory of people’s dreams, those that were signed on Huanyu, whoever they were, would strike ears like the roar of thunder.At present, within the entertainmen
Qin Zhou left after bringing Yuna into the head producer’s office. “Have a seat. We are waiting for one more person.”He picked up the case file and started reading it after he had said that. There’s someone else, too?Who can it be?Am I not the only one signing a contract today?She sat in the chair and examined her surroundings. With everything neatly lined up along the shelf, the office interior appeared minimalist in design. There were a few photo frames hanging on the wall, which displayed the latest first-tier stars of Huanyu. Guy’s portrait was among this lineup. Many books and record albums were on the bookshelf. In front of the sofa was a low-square table with a high-class teapot set on it. A knock was heard on the door.She looked over quizzically and saw June walked in. Seeing her, Yuna smiled in acknowledgement and June nodded in return. She closed the door and took a seat beside her. “Producer Lane.” Lane lifted his wristwatch and took a look before he coolly com
Alexis, who was troubled, noticed that the door to Qin Zhou’s office was ajar. She roamed her eyes and hit upon an idea. Immediately, she put on a saccharine smile and entered the room.“Mr. Qin!”She decided to butter him up sweetly upon stepping inside.Qin Zhou held Huanyu shares; therefore, those artistes and staff with lower ranks had to address him as ‘Mr. Qin’.He felt a headache coming on once he saw her and rolled his eyes lazily. “What?”She was about to speak when she spotted Yuna signing a contract with her head down. She was stunned and momentarily speechless.“… Huh? Yuna?! Why are you here, too?”“It’s none of your business! Care for yourself first!” He reminded her coldly.At his reminder, she remembered her purpose for being in his office and cooed, “Mr. Qin, you have to help me~”Her velvety voice triggered goosebumps on his skin instead.Don’t act coy if you don’t know how to.As soon as she opened her mouth, he only felt disgust and his flesh creep all over.“What
Having very few friends, she treasured this seldom-received kindness. She lowered her gaze to look at the time. She was still early for the interview. As she exited the elevator, Agent Qin seemed to have just reached the company as well. He was quite surprised to see her. “Ah, Shishi! You’re so early!” “Mhm! I couldn’t hail a cab at my doorstep. Luckily, someone let me hitch a ride, so I was able to arrive here on time.” “Someone drove you here? Who?” He was puzzled by the coincidence. “She seems to be called… June Moore.” She learned her name from Youyou. June Moore? He furrowed his brows. “Where are you staying right now?” “Precious Gardens.” He was flabbergasted. That district was well-known for being a luxury residence in the capital, and she lived there? “That’s a very luxurious place! How did you manage to buy a property there?” “I struck the lottery,” she answered sheepishly without going into details. “… What good luck.” He let out a sigh from the bottom of his hea
