Seeing Wang Chao's bewildered expression, Little Wang burst into laughter and said, "That's right, Boss. When I saw this photo, my face turned dark just like yours."
"It's truly shocking. The goddesses suddenly found their partners."
Wang Chao had a dark expression on his face, lit a cigarette, and remained silent.
Within a day, without his knowledge, two celebrities made their official announcements with him.
What kind of situation was this?
Their sudden actions made him feel like he was treading two boats, and his emotions were complicated.
Were these two just fooling around?
"Boss, the goddesses are just getting out of the single life. You don't have to be so heartbroken, right?" Little Wang teased.
"Hahaha, so Captain also enjoys reading gossip news?"
"Of course! Captain is also human, and he has desires. Naturally, he likes looking at beautiful women."
"I really envy their boyfriends. Having such top-notch girlfriends, they must have a great time every night. Every time I think about it, I'm filled with envy."
"Are you excited that your favorite woman is having a great time with other men every night? Do you like wearing a green hat that much?"
"Hahaha~"
Wang Hongyao and the others smiled and started chatting, laughing loudly. They were no longer as reserved as before.
They looked at Wang Chao and smiled.
When they first learned that both Yang Mi and Wang Zuxian were no longer single, they had the same expression as Wang Chao, feeling a sense of discomfort as if their favorite toy had been taken away and played with by someone else. They were not pleased.
So they felt that their distance from Wang Chao had become closer.
At least they had something in common now!
"It's better to read less entertainment gossip."
Wang Chao glanced at them and said calmly, "By the way, I've developed a training plan. In a couple of days, all of you will undergo the most professional training."
"What?"
Wang Hongyao, Little Wang, and the others had just felt a connection with Wang Chao due to their shared interests. But upon hearing Wang Chao's words, they were instantly dumbfounded.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Boss, do we still have to train??"
Everyone looked at each other in confusion, then turned their gaze towards Wang Chao, their eyes filled with doubt.
"Of course, we need to train!"
Wang Chao glanced at them and noticed their lack of energy and enthusiasm. His heart sank slightly.
These people might be able to handle some troublemakers in ordinary situations, but when the Danfeng Group faced a real crisis, they would be utterly useless.
"Brother Wang, do we really have to train? What kind of training?" asked Little Wang.
Wang Chao looked at them and said in a deep voice, "Special forces training!"
"Listen up, in two days, I will give each of you a training manual. I want to turn you into an extremely fierce and unbeatable special forces unit!"
"Each one of you has previously served in the military and has the potential in this area. It's time to reclaim the warrior spirit within you!"
The expressions of everyone became embarrassed upon hearing his words.
During their time in the military, they had already gone through rigorous training, and they thought life would be easier after retiring and becoming security guards.
And now they were being asked to train again?
Seeing their reactions, Wang Chao furrowed his brow slightly.
He thought for a moment and said, "I will discuss with President Shen. If you can withstand the training, each of you will receive a raise of ten thousand in your monthly salary."
"Really?"
Little Wang, Wang Hongyao, and the others' eyes lit up at his words, and their excitement grew.
"I keep my word!"
Wang Chao nodded confidently, then his expression turned serious as he continued, "But don't get too excited. Your salary increase will be granted upon completing the training."
After a pause, he shifted his tone and said coldly, "However, if you fail to complete the training, your salary will be deducted!"
With that, he ignored them and returned to his office. After brewing a pot of tea, he resumed working on his training plan.
Outside the door, Little Wang, Wang Hongyao, and the others exchanged glances, each seeing excitement, anticipation, and a hint of fear in the eyes of others.
"What kind of training is this? And how can it result in such a significant salary increase?"
"If the salary increase is substantial, does that mean the deductions will also be severe if we fail to complete the training?"
"Based on my understanding of Brother Wang, I don't think he will deduct too much from our salaries."
"I'm starting to feel a little excited about this so-called training. It's a great opportunity to get a raise."
They discussed eagerly, feeling both anxious and strongly anticipating what was to come.
Inside his office, Wang Chao continued working on his plan.
At that moment, Yang Mi called.
Wang Chao picked up his phone, his expression turning serious as he answered the call. "What's the matter..."
Before he could question why Yang Mi had sent him the photo, he was interrupted by her angry voice. "Wang Chao, that Jing Shulan is causing trouble for me again!"
Wang Chao had already reprimanded Jing Shulan the last time.
Why hadn't this woman learned her lesson?
"No way, she dares to bother you again?"
Yang Mi sounded aggrieved as she continued, "Yes, she shamelessly stole my scenes, and during the acting, she even took it too far and slapped me multiple times."
Wang Chao's tone turned icy. "Slap her back!"
"But you're not here with me. How can I dare to hit her?" Yang Mi's voice sounded even more helpless. "Now on the set, she has become the female lead. The director, lighting crew, cinematographer, makeup artist, and even other actors are all on her side."
"I can't compete with her on the set."
Wang Chao wanted to say something, but Yang Mi's phone received the director's loud and rude yelling. "Yang Mi, where the hell are you? It's your turn to film!!!"
The voice was incredibly harsh, domineering, and even filled with curses!
At the same time, there were many other faint voices.
Others might not be able to make out those voices, but Wang Chao's hearing was incredibly sharp, and he quickly caught those sounds.
"Heh, is Yang Mi mentally ill? Making a phone call on the side while filming? Isn't that holding us back?"
"Don't you know? Yang Mi used to be an A-list celebrity, and now she can't even get her scenes. The director is clearly intentionally giving her a hard time."
"Of course, it's a difficult situation. This is Canton City, and I heard that Jing Shulan has the backing of a powerful figure in Canton City. The director can't afford to offend her."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"That's the entertainment industry for you. When you're popular, everyone supports you. But once your financial backers change, you quickly lose your fame."
"I heard that Yang Mi refuses to accept any unethical advances, so she's being targeted. My guess is, if she doesn't go warm the beds of those big shots, the next step will be to ban or sideline her."
"Let alone the director, even some of Jing Shulan's lackeys dare to yell at her."
"It seems like Yang Mi will suffer until this film is completed."
These were the whispered discussions among the extras. They're small and mixed, making it difficult for ordinary people to hear clearly.
Wang Chao's gaze turned even colder after hearing those voices.
It seemed that Yang Mi had indeed been bullied on the set.
"I know, director, I'll be right there."
After shouting those words, Yang Mi lowered her voice and uttered to Wang Chao, "Alright, Wang Chao, I'll talk to you later when I have time. I have to go and attend to my work now."
"Do you desire me to come and help?" Wang Chao asked.
"No, you do not have to come! Please, don't come!" Yang Mi hurriedly replied.
She had just posted the photo of her and Wang Chao on her official social media account today, and now many fans and media outlets were paying attention to this matter.
If Wang Chao came to the set at this time, their relationship would be exposed!
More importantly, she did not know if Wang Chao actually liked her or not.
If Wang Chao did not like her, a media exposure like this would only give rise to avoidable trouble for him.
"Can you handle it?"
"I'll endure it for now, it should be fine."
"You do not need to endure it. Cui Hong has already fallen, and Jing Shulan has no one to rely on anymore. If she still wants to bully you, fight back. After tonight, I guarantee she won't be the female lead anymore."
Wang Chao spoke each word with an icy tone.
Although he and Yang Mi weren't in a romantic relationship, Yang Mi was still his classmate and friend. If Jing Shulan was bullying his friend, he could not let it slide.
"Okay." Yang Mi smiled sweetly and then hung up the phone.
Wang Chao put his phone away, his gaze as sharp as a knife.
Yang Ao was Cui Hong's nephew and had bullied his two brothers.
Jing Shulan was just one of Cui Hong's women, yet she dared to behave so outrageously and bully his female classmate.
This was simply going too far!
During tonight's negotiation, he would make sure to settle the score with Cui Hong and take into account both old and new grudges!
