After I was released from prison, I had a flash marriage with a boss who was in a vegetative state

The inertia of the boy rushing down knocked Mu Xiaowan to the ground. She subconsciously put her hands on the ground, and her palms were rubbed by the rough ground.

Mu Xiaowan didn't care about the pain in her palm at all. She looked at the little boy worriedly and asked, "How are you, little boy? Are you hurt anywhere?"

The little boy shook his head in shock: "I'm fine, thank you auntie."

Seeing how adorable the child is, Mu Xiaowan reached out and ruffled his hair, saying, "You're welcome, but be more careful when you walk next time!"

The little boy nodded obediently.

At this time, a middle-aged woman ran over quickly.

She hugged the little boy and thanked Mu Xiaowan with tears in her eyes: "Miss, thank you so much! If it weren't for you, my young master would definitely be injured!"

The middle-aged woman saw Mu Xiaowan's injured hand again and hurriedly said, "Miss, you are injured. Can I take you to the hospital?"

"No need," Mu Xiaowan said, "It's just a minor injury. I'll just apply some medicine on it and it will be fine."

She touched the little boy's head again and walked into the teahouse.

Bai Rui was waiting for her in the tea room on the third floor. He was already there when she arrived.

When I pushed the door open, I saw Bai Rui.

Bai Rui is already in his forties, but he has taken very good care of himself and looks very young.

She wasn't a beauty in the traditional sense, but her aura made people unable to take their eyes off her.

Mu Xiaowan said respectfully: "Sister Bai, I'm sorry, I'm late."

Bai Rui raised his head, looked at Mu Xiaowan, and said calmly: "If you know you are embarrassed, then why are you late? Do you think you are superior in talent, so you are arrogant?"

Mu Xiaowan quickly said: "No, I didn't mean that..."

Bai Rui raised her hand to stop Mu Xiaowan from saying anything else. She stood up and said, "I'm sorry, you're not the artist I want to choose."

"The artistes I choose can be mediocre, not beautiful enough, not sexy enough, not good enough in acting, but they must stick to the deadlines."

After saying that, Bai Rui was about to walk out.

Mu Xiaowan didn't expect Bai Rui to be so disrespectful to her and was stunned for a moment.

Seeing Bai Rui was about to reach the door, she became anxious.

She knew very well that the reason she could meet Bai Rui today was because of Li Xiao.

If Bai Rui left today, it would be almost impossible for her to see Bai Rui again in the future and ask her to be her agent.

So there is no way she would miss this opportunity!

So, Mu Xiaowan rushed to Bai Rui in two steps and said, "I want to take back my apology. I was not late. I arrived half an hour earlier than the agreed time, so I don't need to apologize."

Bai Rui took a step forward. She was already very close to Mu Xiaowan, and this step made the two of them almost touching each other.

She looked down at Mu Xiaowan: "So you are accusing me of distorting the facts?"

"No!" Mu Xiaowan did not step back and said seriously, "I don't mean to blame Manager Bai at all."

"I just want to tell you that my apology is polite, and it doesn't mean that I have really done anything wrong. Our appointment was at 9:30 in the morning and it's only 9 o'clock now, so I'm not late, and I'm not wrong!"

"So?" Bai Rui raised his eyebrows and said, "You weren't late and didn't make any mistakes. Do you think you are qualified for me to choose you as my artist?"

"Or do you think that just because you have some relationship with Li Xiao, you can use Li Xiao to pressure me and force me to be your manager? If that's the case, you are too naive and childish!"

Bai Rui's tone was full of sarcasm, as if he was laughing at Mu Xiaowan's naivety.

Mu Xiaowan's expression did not change at all.

She was not at all unhappy about Bai Rui's ridicule. She said, "Indeed, I am able to meet you, Manager Bai, today, thanks to my uncle."

"But if you decide to be my agent because of my uncle, then I will reject you."

Mu Xiaowan's words finally shocked Bai Rui. She said, "What do you mean? Are you going to reject me?"

"Yes, if you treat me differently because of my uncle, then I will refuse you to be my agent."

"Oh?" Bai Rui showed some interest and said, "Then tell me, why didn't you use the back door when you had one? Are you a fool?"

Mu Xiaowan shook her head: "I'm not a fool, so I made this decision."

After a pause, Mu Xiaowan said, "I don't know how you, Manager Bai, view the relationship between managers and artists, but in my opinion, managers and artists are brothers on the battlefield."

"We are comrades-in-arms, friends for life and death, and people who can trust each other with their backs, fighting together in the battlefield of the entertainment industry."

"As comrades, we must trust each other and appreciate each other. Otherwise, if we have calculations and suspicions in our hearts, how can we fight together in the entertainment industry?"

"If there is no trust, our cooperation will be like a pile of loose sand. Bai Rui may be even worse to me than a new agent, so I will reject you."

Bai Rui sneered: "You are so bold that you dare to compare me with a low-ranking new agent. Aren't you afraid that I will be angry?"

Mu Xiaowan said: "I believe in Sister Bai's magnanimity."

Bai Rui snorted: "You are good at flattering me."

Mu Xiaowan quickly poured a cup of tea and handed it to Bai Rui, saying, "Not only can I flatter Sister Bai, I can also serve her tea and water!"

"You are quite good at handling things. Now you are Sister Bai?" Bai Rui laughed sarcastically, then took a sip of the tea poured by Mu Xiaowan.

After drinking the tea, she returned to the box and sat in the same seat as before.

Looking at the girl sitting opposite him, Bai Rui said, "You will be 24 after the New Year, right?"

"Correct."

Bai Rui hummed: "A bit old."

Although twenty-four is the prime of youth for many people, it is indeed a bit old for celebrities in the entertainment industry.

She took out Mu Xiaowan's file, flipped through it and said, "I see you debuted very early, when you were just in college, and it's been almost six years now."

"You really came to prominence because Miss Song praised you. You are doing really badly."

Bai Rui clicked his tongue, his tone full of undisguised disdain.

After a pause, she asked abruptly, "Do you accept the unspoken rules?"

Mu Xiaowan shook her head: "I don't accept it."

Bai Rui said: "It will be difficult for a woman who refuses to accept the unspoken rules to make a name for herself. She may not even make a name for herself in her entire life. Are you sure?"

Before Mu Xiaowan spoke, Bai Rui said, "I know that at your age, you are still a bit naive and think that keeping yourself pure and clean is a good quality."

"But what I want to tell you is that these are nothing compared to real life. Nothing is more important than becoming famous or making money."
