Chapter 21: Successful Termination
With Liang Xun around, Zhou Lin had to agree to terminate the contract no matter how unwilling he was.
However, he felt a little comforted when he thought of the large sum of compensation he would receive in the future.
After the termination of the contract was settled, Jing Yao took out the bank card Liang Xun gave her and transferred 50 million yuan to the company’s account.
50 million?
Liang Xun secretly exchanged glances with Gu Yu and they both sneered inwardly.
How dare this lousy entertainment company ask for a 50 million yuan penalty for breach of contract without planning for their artists?
Jing Yao also felt a little heartache, but she heaved a sigh of relief when she thought that she could get rid of the Jing Family’s control after terminating the contract.
Wang Ke sat in the wheelchair and desperately held his wife’s hand to prevent her from rushing out.
He did not know what Liang Xun looked like in the past, but that did not mean that he did not know who Liang Xun was.
Who was Liang Xun? Even a strand of his hair was thicker than his thigh.
He had investigated Jing Yao’s background in advance and knew that although she came from a good family, her family didn’t like her and her company didn’t care about her. That was why he dared to lie to his wife that Jing Yao failed to seduce him and even got someone to hit him.
Who would have thought that Jing Yao was related to Liang Xun?
He was just an unknown director. He didn’t have a famous work. What could he use to fight Liang Xun?
At the thought of this, Wang Ke’s forehead was covered in cold sweat. However, his wife did not care about this at all. She did not even know who Liang Xun was. She was only shrewish and greedy.
In her heart, Jing Yao was shameless. She seduced her husband just because she was young and beautiful. Not only did she want to ruin Jing Yao’s reputation, but she also wanted to take the opportunity to get some benefits.
Seeing that Jing Yao could easily take out 50 million yuan as a penalty for breach of contract, she wanted to extort a sum of money from Jing Yao. She broke free from Wang Ke’s hand, picked up an ornamental vase on the table, and rushed towards Jing Yao.
“Yaoyao.”
Zhu Ling’s heart trembled when she saw this scene. She shouted and wanted to rush over.
Her voice woke Liang Xun, who was talking to Jing Yao with his head lowered. He looked up and saw the woman rushing over with a vase. He lowered his eyes and kicked her quickly.
He was strong and angry, so he did not want to control his strength at all. The woman was sent flying and fell to the ground with a bang.
Jing Yao trembled in fear.
After kicking her, Liang Xun didn’t even look at the ground. He only reached out to touch Jing Yao’s head and comforted her softly. “It’s fine, it’s fine.”
With that, he looked up at Gu Yu. “I was defending myself just now. You saw it too.”
Gu Yu nodded in exasperation.
Zhu Ling had already arrived beside Jing Yao. She was also frightened by Liang Xun’s kick. Although she was grateful to Liang Xun for protecting Jing Yao, she didn’t want to let him off verbally.
“You even hit a woman.”
Liang Xun did not care about her mockery at all. He raised his eyebrows and said, “I don’t usually hit women, but if I don’t hit her, my wife will be hit by her.”
Wife?
Zhu Ling was dumbfounded and stared at Jing Yao.
Jing Yao shrugged and begged softly, “Alright, Lingling. I’ll explain to you later, okay?”
Zhu Ling snorted. “You’d better think of your words first.”
Zhou Lin looked at the woman who was groaning on the ground and was so frightened that his mind went blank. He didn’t hear what Liang Xun said at all. He was just glad that he didn’t insist on not letting Jing Yao terminate the contract just now. Otherwise, he might be the one lying on the ground now.
Wang Ke looked at his wife, who was lying on the ground and screaming in pain. He instinctively wanted to get up from the wheelchair to help her up, but he remembered that he was still pretending to be seriously injured. Moreover, Liang Xun was watching from the side. He did not dare to move at all.
Liang Xun looked at the woman who was crying in pain on the ground. After confirming that she was not seriously injured, he said to Gu Yu, “Call an ambulance.”
When Wang Ke heard this, he hurriedly said, “No need, no need. There’s no need to trouble you. She’s fine. There’s no need to call an ambulance.”
Jing Yao and Zhu Ling were both women. They were a little disappointed when they heard this.
Zhu Ling glanced at Liang Xun coldly and said to Jing Yao, “See, Yaoyao? Men are unreliable. They’re so cowardly that they don’t even dare to protect their wives.”
Liang Xun could tell what she meant and frowned.
Gu Yu had just finished his call. When he heard her words, as an innocent man who had been implicated, he hurriedly smiled and said, “Miss Zhu, you’re wrong. We can’t kill a boatload of people with one strike. There are bad men and good men in this world. People like our President Liang are good men who dote on their wives.”𝒃𝙚𝙙𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝒍.𝒐𝙧𝒈
