Since Heaven granted him another chance at life, 

Lin Qingyan wouldn’t make the same foolish mistake again.

In his previous life, he had been deceived by Li Heng’s sugar-coated bullet1.Li Heng appeared to be loyal and honest on the surface, but in reality, he was cunning and deceitful. Even the entertainment company, Platinum Entertainment, where Li Heng works, was a black hearted Company.

Li Heng said that Platinum Entertainment is a big company with good resources and treats its artists very well. He promised Lin Qingyan at the beginning that as long as he signed the contract, he would be able to sing, dance, release albums, act in TV dramas and movies, and accept commercials, so he could make a lot of money

With the money he earned, Lin Qingyan would never have to endure such hardship again in the future.

At that time, Lin Qingyan was very naïve and simple, he was also very short of money. Additionally, Li Heng was highly skilled at deceiving people, so Lin Qingyan believed him and signed a ten-year contract with Platinum Entertainment without much hesitation.

Lin Qingyan’s motivation for earning money wasn’t solely for a better life for himself. His father had previously fallen victim to a gambling addiction and owed a substantial amount of debt. Debt collectors frequently came to their home, disrupting their lives and peace of mind.

At that time, Lin Qingyan was only 17 years old and was in the third year of high school. His academic achievements are very good, not because he was talented but because of his hard work. He would wake up at five in the morning to memorize his studies and wouldn’t go to bed until midnight every day.

Although such a life was hard, but it was felt fulfilling. His greatest wish was to be admitted to a good university and stand out from the rest.

However, reality was cruel. Due to the huge amount of debts his family owed , his parents decided not to allow him  to attend school. To call by the glorified name of their actions, They justified this by saying he was the eldest son and should share the burden of supporting the family, especially since his younger brother was still in middle school.

His cherished dream of attending a good university was ruthlessly shattered by his parents’ few words. At the age of 17, he dropped out of school, left home, and embarked on a journey to earn money. Yet, being young and lacking formal education, nobody was willing to hire him.

Lin Qingyan could only take on odd jobs, doing any dirty and tiring work available. Sometimes, he had to work multiple jobs in a day, with only a few hours of rest.

Despite earning money, he couldn’t keep it for himself. Each month, he would only retain a few hundred yuan for his living expenses, while the rest would be handed without exception over to his parents as his younger brother needed to go to school, and debts needed to be repaid, The burden of life bent his back as a teenager.

That’s why when Li Heng threw out an olive branch, he was deceived. Even if there was the tiniest bit of hope, he wanted to reach out and grab it, only to have that hope shattered into countless pieces.

“Xiao Lin, have you encountered any difficulties? Or are you dissatisfied with the conditions of the contract? Just be honest with Li-ge, all these issues can be resolved.”

In the café, Li Heng looked at the young man across from him, his face full of sincerity. However, the young man just shook his head indifferently, his lips curled up slightly, but there was no smile in his eyes, “There’s no problem; I just don’t want to sign it.”

“Why?” Li Heng stood up in excitement, slapping the table. A few drops of coffee spilled from the cup, and there was a hint of anger in his eyes, As if he was going to beat him up by the collar in the next second.

Lin Qingyan remained calm.

Li Heng is a hypocrite, who wouldn’t resort to violence easily.

He took a few deep breaths, quickly calming himself down, and sat back down. His face resumed its usual façade of loyalty and kindness, as if admonishing an inexperienced junior. He earnestly said, “Xiao Lin, Brother Li know you’re in a difficult situation, that’s why I wanted to give you this opportunity. I have high hopes for you. As long as you sign the contract, your future will definitely be limitless…”

“Mr. Li, you can save those words to deceive someone else.”

Lin Qingyan got up and smiled at him. The young man’s clear and pleasant voice did not fluctuate, and it was as cold as a mountain spring.

“Rest assured, I’ll pack up and move out of the apartment today.”
