Beauty and the Beasts Chapter 1438

Xu Qiyang took a look at her. Each of these four men had their own characteristics. Yet, to think that a young girl like her didn't appear abrupt when placed amongst them. Instead, it was surprisingly harmonious.
With Bai Qingqing entering the conversation, Xu Qiyang felt a lot more at ease and said, "It's a long story. I heard from a guy who imitated this mister that he stays at Splendid Villa, and I have been waiting here for half a day. I didn't expect to see him today. Lucky me."
Bai Qingqing understood it now and was very interested in this free meal that was sent right up to their door.
Parker would have to find a job sooner or later, and the fame he had gotten now was a good opportunity for him to start a career as a celebrity. It was a chance that others might not get even if they wanted it.
"You guys go back first. I'll have a chat with Mr. Xu together with Parker," Bai Qingqing said to her mates.
Curtis frowned and said, "I'll stay with you guys."
Xu Qiyang had the feeling that this tall guy who was wearing a hat was very eerie, and he subconsciously wanted to avoid him. However, this also represented his characteristic. If he were to enter the movie industry, he would definitely be able to get good results.
Xu Qiyang's professional upbringing suppressed his instinctive reaction. Wearing a perfect smile, he said politely, "Of course. Let's sit down and have a chat together."
Winston and Muir wanted to follow along, but Bai Qingqing glared at them.
It was inconvenient for Muir to show his face. Understanding this, he said, "Then… I'll head back home first."
Bai Qingqing then looked toward Winston, clearly also wanting him to go home. Xu Qiyang quickly said, "The netizens also have a great interest in him. If he's willing to, our company will be very willing to have him.

Winston frowned. "I'm not interested. Qingqing, I'll head back too."
"En." Bai Qingqing nodded.
In the end, only Curtis and Bai Qingqing went along with Parker for this job discussion.
They found a quiet café. This was Bai Qingqing's first time here, and she was clearly a little restrained. Also here for the first time, Curtis and Parker had gotten used to everything being unfamiliar and thus had a more natural attitude.
Xu Qiyang could chat well with others, but when facing these two men, he kept feeling like he was weaker in comparison.
Without the energy for too much idle chat, he took out a stack of documents and went straight to the point. "This is the contract. Take a look at it. If you think it's fine, then we can sign it right away and you'll be able to come to work tomorrow."
Parker casually received the contract, flipped through two pages, and realized he couldn't understand a single word. He then handed it to Bai Qingqing and asked, "My only concern is, is the money good?"
In the few days Qingqing wasn't around, he almost starved to death. The canned meat he got from Qingqing's house was almost finished, too. This was despite Qingqing getting Winston to pass him the message that he wasn't allowed to eat those canned foods.
Xu Qiyang smiled and heaved a sigh of relief. "You don't have to worry about this. As long as you produce good results, money will come rolling in."
Parker immediately said, "Alright. It's fine as long as there is money. I'll do the job no matter how hard it is."
Bai Qingqing still had her head lowered as she read the contract. Hearing this, she looked up and glared at him. Curtis took the contract and flipped through the pages quickly.

Xu Qiyang treated it as if Curtis was just taking a quick look at it. Thus, he didn't expect him to suddenly ask, "Abide by any of the company's arrangements unconditionally or it'd be considered a violation of the contract?"
Curtis looked up and said, "It's written in front that violation of the contract would require one to pay ten times the agreed amount when the contract is signed. This amount isn't small. What does 'any of the company's arrangements' entails? What if he isn't willing to do it?"
Parker's countenance instantly changed, and he stared at Xu Qiyang warily.
Xu Qiyang was very surprised. He didn't expect Curtis to go through the pages so quickly yet still be able to notice this unfair clause that 90% of the newcomers didn't notice. Of course, even if they noticed it, they wouldn't be able to change anything.
Bai Qingqing was even more surprised than him. What the f*ck? Curtis had already learned to read? Then what use was she?
