Yu Chen peered at her and motioned. "Have a seat."

Hearing this, Qin Yanyu sat down on a sofa not too far away.

"Did you need something?" Yu Chen asked.

"Naturally, it's about what's going on." Qin Yanyu flashed a smile and glanced at him. "My agent informed me that Mr. Huo said I might need to fill a role in a few days?"

"That's correct." Yu Chen replied.

"Mr. Yu isn't going to ask if I mind?"

"You're an artist contracted with this company, and the company needs your assistance. Are you willing to help?"

Yu Chen quickly got down to business. "This is a good script and the compensation is already settled. What more could you ask for?"

"Isn't Chen Hongming's contract up for renewal? How about mine?" Qin Yanyu asked, "Does Mr. Yu plan to have me renew my contract?"

"That's not it. His contract is up for renewal, but you still have a few years left for yours, so there's no need to worry."

"So Mr. Yu plans to renew my contract?"

"Of course."

"Then what methods does Mr. Yu have to keep me with the company?" Qin Yanyu inquired.

"What are you looking for?"

Qin Yanyu looked at him but didn't dare to enunciate what she wanted. After a long while, she smiled and said, "Then, Mr. Yu, invite me out for a meal. After the meal, I'll renew my contract with him."

Yu Chen wasn't expecting this sort of request and refused. "I still have work to do, so I'll ask Huo Qi to accompany you for a meal."

"Mr. Huo has accompanied many artists for meals, but not you, Mr. Yu. Even for our company's annual meetings, you've never accompanied us."

Yu Chen chuckled, "I really am busy."

He looked toward Qin Yanyu and said, "You've developed well over the past few years. The company cares for you, and you are equally loyal to the company. In order to fill this role, we really need your assistance. Later on in the filming process, I'll visit the crew. When that happens, I'll invite you out to eat along with Ling Qing."

When Qin Yanyu heard the words "Ling Qing" come out of his mouth, her suspicions peaked.

Over the past two days, she had come to discover that the company had signed a new artist named Ling Qing. As soon as he was signed, he became the male lead for《March Peach Blossom Smile》, the role that should have gone to Chen Hongming.

Not that it was a big deal. After all, Chen Hongming had ulterior motives and it wasn't the first time she'd been displeased with this white eyed wolf. However, she hadn't expected that as soon as she heard word of Tan Keyao's withdrawal, Huo Qi would contact her agent to fill the gap. They had already made preparations in advance.

Qin Yanyu had just finished filming the week prior and hadn't wanted to take up another role so soon, so she had asked her agent to relay this and recommend other actresses in her stead.

Although they weren't as good as her, they were of similar strength to Tan Keyao. Nonetheless, Huo Qi had soon contacted her and said that this was under Yu Chen's direction. If she didn't want to, she had better take it up with him directly.

Qin Yanyu had signed with Morning Rise almost immediately after it had been founded. Over these few years, she had never seen Yu Chen care about the company's artists.
