Chapter 572: Chapter 572: Terminating the Contract for Her
Lin Fei smiled slightly at Jiang Yi, “Rest assured! I will have the money ready.”
After speaking, Lin Fei leaned forward and whispered a few words into Leng Ying’s ear, took out a bank card, and placed it in Leng Ying’s hand, saying, “Go quickly and co back soon.”
Leng Ying nodded.
Then, Leng Ying left the room.
A few minutes later, a rotund middle-aged man wearing glasses ca in, and upon seeing Jiang Yi, his face imdiately showed respect. “Boss, I’ve brought Li Xuechun’s contract.”
This middle-aged man was Secretary Huang.
He took a docunt from his briefcase, placed it on the table in front of Jiang Yi.
“Alright, you can leave now!” Jiang Yi waved him away.
“Yes, boss.” Secretary Huang responded and left the room.
Jiang Yi picked up the docunt from the table, flipped through it, then looked up at Lin Fei and said, “This is the contract Li Xuechun signed with my Celestial Dragon Entertainnt Film and Television Company. It’s clearly stated here that if Li Xuechun, the second party, wants to terminate the contract early, she must pay a penalty of thirty million!
I’ve brought the contract, but where’s your thirty million?”
“I’ve already sent soone to retrieve it.” Lin Fei sat calmly on the sofa, gazing coolly at Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yi watched Lin Fei’s poised deanor, appearing every bit like a scion of a wealthy family, which only fueled his anger.
“Fine, I’ll give you ten more minutes. If you still can’t co up with the thirty million, then get out of this room and stop interfering with my work discussions with Li Xuechun.” Jiang Yi’s eyes flashed with sharpness as he looked at Lin Fei.
Next to Lin Fei, however, Li Xuechun appeared anxious and uneasy.
Lin Fei didn’t have the appearance of a wealthy young master from Hong Kong. As a rising star actress from Hong Kong, Li Xuechun had seen many affluent young n.
But she couldn’t recall seeing soone like Lin Fei in her mory.
And if Lin Fei wasn’t from a wealthy family, then a regular person coming up with thirty million would be impossible.
Li Xuechun didn’t want Lin Fei to suffer because of her.
In her urgency, Li Xuechun pleaded with Jiang Yi, “Boss Jiang, I’ll give you ten million first, and for the remaining twenty million, could you please allow a month to pay you back?”
“I had forgotten that you beca an artist under my company a year ago, and within this year, you’ve earned film fees of over ten million.” Jiang Yi sneered coldly, “But I’m sorry, the penalty can’t be deferred. Either break up with your boyfriend obediently and work diligently, or give thirty million in penalty fees and you’ll be free.”
At this mont, Leng Ying returned from the doorway and said to Lin Fei, “Lin Fei, I’m back.”
Lin Fei nodded gently.
“What does this an? He’s back, so where’s the thirty million?” Jiang Yi laughed seeing Leng Ying return without the money.
“What play are you acting here, taking a bank card out for a spin and thinking you can break the contract?”
Li Xuechun saw Leng Ying leave empty-handed, and return the sa way.
It seed things were just as she suspected; Lin Fei couldn’t co up with thirty million.
However, Li Xuechun didn’t bla Lin Fei.
If it weren’t for helping her today, Lin Fei wouldn’t have gotten involved.
It’s still her who owes Lin Fei.
“Lin Fei, you should leave! This has nothing to do with you.” Li Xuechun said to Lin Fei.
Her family background was ordinary, but because of her beauty and purity, she gained the reputation of a pure fairy at Hong Kong City University, and her talents and skills quickly attracted the attention of film companies.
Though she gained fa and beca a rising star actress,
Jiang Yi’s constant coveting of her beauty kept her on edge and on guard.
However, Jiang Yi was wealthy and influential, and she was an artist under his company. Despite all her precautions, she ultimately couldn’t escape Jiang Yi’s grasp.
Li Xuechun deeply regretted signing with Celestial Dragon Entertainnt at the beginning. If she hadn’t beco a star, she might have lived the simple and happy life of an ordinary student.
But now, apart from giving herself to Jiang Yi, perhaps she has no way of getting him to let her go.
Li Xuechun seed to have made a significant decision and said to Jiang Yi, “Boss Jiang, I have only ten million, for the remaining twenty million, I offer my body as repaynt. Is that acceptable?”
Upon hearing this, Lin Fei and Leng Ying both showed looks of surprise.
Jiang Yi’s face imdiately lit up with a smile, saying, “Li Xuechun, that’s what you said, I didn’t force you.”
Li Xuechun bit her lip and said to Jiang Yi, “I do it willingly.”
“However, Li Xuechun, even if you’re willing, the debt is still twenty million, and it might take two years to repay with your body.” Jiang Yi said with a smirk, looking at Li Xuechun.
Li Xuechun’s face imdiately turned pale and she said, “Two years? Isn’t that the sa as my contract term?”
She had signed a three-year contract with Celestial Dragon Entertainnt, with one year already past, and two years remaining until its expiration. And Jiang Yi wanted her to repay with her body for two years.
This was clearly no different than not terminating the contract at all.
Li Xuechun felt a surge of shock and anger within her.
“You also have the choice not to terminate the contract.” Jiang Yi said, his gaze filled with mockery as he looked at Li Xuechun.
“Who said I’m not terminating it? Of course, I’m terminating it.” At this mont, Lin Fei’s voice rang out.
Jiang Yi burst into laughter, “Hahaha, you say you’re terminating it, but do you have the money?
A poor boy, don’t pretend to be a wealthy young master in front of . Get out of this room before I lose my patience!”
Saying this, Jiang Yi’s gaze towards Lin Fei revealed a nacing intention.
Lin Fei smiled calmly, “Who says I don’t have money?”
Then, Lin Fei looked at Leng Ying and said, “Let them in!”
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yi’s eyebrows knitted slightly: What trick is this kid trying to play?
Leng Ying called out towards the room’s entrance, “You may all co in now!”
With Leng Ying’s call,
five bank staff mbers in suits entered, each carrying two black briefcases.
“Put the money cases on the table, open them for Mr. Jiang to see.” Leng Ying instructed the bank staff.
“Yes, Mr. Leng.” The bank staff placed ten briefcases onto the table.
Since the table was small, ten black briefcases filled it completely.
Then, the bank staff opened all the cases, leaving Jiang Yi wide-eyed and unbelieving of what he saw.
Each briefcase was filled with stacks of hundred-dollar bills, each case containing several hundred thousand, with all ten cases filled with thirty million in total.
This left Jiang Yi dumbfounded, and his face muscles twitched in anguish and anger.
How could this be?
How could this kid possibly have thirty million?
Li Xuechun, seeing the table laden with suitcases filled with cash, was also shocked, her mouth slightly open, her hand covering her lips.
After a long while, she finally recovered, her gaze locking onto Lin Fei: he had truly taken out thirty million to terminate the contract for her!
They had only t today, yet he spent three million for her, which moved her deeply.
“Boss Jiang, would you like the bank staff to count and verify the presence of thirty million?” Lin Fei sat on the sofa like an emperor, looking at Jiang Yi.
