Chapter 218 Fighting
Lawyer Guan smiled and said, "Ms. Cheng is indeed a smart person. Mr. Pei is waiting for a few people at the Starbucks next door."
Cheng Xi and others followed Lawyer Guan to Starbucks.
Tang Lin whispered in annoyance: "I'm still too immature."
"Senior Tang, don't think too much. Look, that official lawyer is in his forties, and you are only in your early twenties. I believe that when you get to his age, you might be more powerful than him." Cheng Xi comforted.
Cheng Yue also added: "Cheng Xi is right. The lawyers and accountants around Pei Yanzhou are among the best in the world. I have also heard of this official lawyer. He has not lost a lawsuit in the past ten years. We are still young. I believe that with time As time goes by, they will become better in their respective fields.”
Tang Lin felt bitter.
I used to be a student council president in school, and I thought I was pretty good.
When I came to society, my arrogance was quickly polished away.
However, the short-term setback will not discourage him. He will only work harder so that he can protect the people he loves around him.
……
Arrived at Starbucks.
Pei Yanzhou had already found a seat and sat down.
He was wearing a business suit, and even when he was sitting, he couldn't hide his dignity and elegance.
Pei Yanzhou looked up and saw Cheng Xi walking over. Tang Lin was standing on her left. The two were similar in age. They were like the school sweethearts in youth TV dramas, and they were particularly matched.
But in his eyes, it was particularly annoying.
As for the other Cheng Yue and Xu Xiao, he completely ignored them.
"Sit." Pei Yanzhou said, his eyes filled with coldness. Even if he was sitting, he still had an intimidating aura.
Seeing his aura, Cheng Yue, Xu Xiao, and Tang Lin felt inexplicably numb with fear.
Cheng Xi might have gotten used to this face, so he pulled out his chair, sat down directly, and asked, "What do you want to talk about?"
Pei Yanzhou moved a check between his two slender fingers to the middle of the table, and said in a calm tone, "I have 50 million here to invest in your online drama. Add in your own funds, and you will get almost a whole 100 million, which is enough for you to film a movie." A high-quality online drama.”
Cheng Yue's eyes lit up slightly.
As the director of the crew, she is very aware of the tight financial situation. If there is more than 50 million at this time, the financial problem will definitely be solved.
only…….
She glanced at Cheng Xi who was calm and self-possessed, and she quickly felt ashamed. She was her sister, but she was not as calm as Cheng Xi when things happened.
"What are the conditions?" Cheng Xi asked, "Do you want me to let Mu Xuetong go?"
Pei Yanzhou said "hmm" and said in a neutral tone: "Cheng Xi, you are a smart person and you should know how to make choices. If you keep pestering us, filing lawsuits for money, and there are a lot of people on the crew waiting to eat and film, you are dragging your feet. I'm sorry, even if you fight the lawsuit at all costs for the sake of your reputation, the official lawyer should analyze it with you. As long as I'm here, you can't convict Xuetong."
Cheng Xi was lost in thought for a few seconds.
Even if she is divorced, the intimate past will still echo in her mind when she is alone at night. ,,
She remembered his breath and his taste.
But now, the words "I'm here" completely shattered all the feelings she had had.
Pei Yanzhou looked at her.
He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he seemed to see something deep in Cheng Xi's eyes slowly dissipating, and finally only a clear black remained.
That feeling gave him an indescribable moment of panic, but it was only fleeting.
Even he didn't notice it.
Until Cheng Xi on the opposite side spoke again: "I also have a request. The crew of "A Secret Fragrance and Floating Dream" that Mu Xuetong plagiarized cannot be used again."
"Okay." Pei Yanzhou nodded and said to the official lawyer, "Give her the settlement letter."
Lawyer Guan immediately took out a contract from his document bag and handed it over. Tang Lin helped Cheng Xi take it first, and then the two of them came together and talked in low voices for a while.
Pei Yanzhou looked at Cheng Xi and Tang Lin indifferently. Seeing the two people's heads getting closer and closer, he picked up the coffee cup in front of him irritably and took a sip. The taste of the coffee soaked into his tongue, and for the first time he found that it was terribly bitter.
After enduring it for less than a minute, he said impatiently: "Have you finished reading it? How long do you have to read a three-page document? If it doesn't work, hire a better lawyer."
Tang Linjun's face turned red with embarrassment.
Cheng Xi raised her eyes and asked: "Mr. Pei, when your company signs a contract, don't you bring a legal consultant to discuss it carefully before signing? Who doesn't know that there are too many traps in the contract? Besides, we only looked at it for a minute. , you are so anxious, I even wonder if you have set some trap in the contract."
Her vigilant eyes made Pei Yanzhou's face darken, "I'm anxious because to me, time is money. Unlike you, time is a waste of life."
Cheng Yue and Xu Xiao on the side: "..."
Are they all wasting their lives by co-writing?
Why does this Mr. Pei speak so unpleasantly?
Cheng Xi smiled and suddenly turned to Tang Lin and said, "Take your time and don't be in a hurry. We are young anyway and have plenty of time to waste our lives. Unlike Mr. Pei, who is older than us and cannot afford to waste our lives."
"..."
When Tang Lin took a hard look at Pei Yanzhou's ugly face, he couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth. He wanted to laugh, but he didn't dare.
But within a moment, he was defeated by Pei Yanzhou's next words.
"Cheng Xi, do you think I'm old?" Pei Yanzhou suddenly sneered, "When we were in bed, why didn't you say I was old and you thought I was too long?"
Everyone except Tang Lin blushed.
Can they listen to this?
No.
Cheng Xi's face turned red with anger. She wanted to jump up and scold Pei Yanzhou, a shameless person, for talking nonsense.
She had never had sex with him.
But if that guy Pei Yanzhou reveals all the old secrets between the two of them, she probably won't be able to see anyone anymore.
Taking a long, deep breath, Cheng Xi said impatiently: "Really? I don't even remember these things. Are you done with it? If you sign a contract and talk about those things in the past, you won't forget my old feelings." Okay, but stop daydreaming, I already have no idea about you."
"Am I unforgettable about your old love?" Pei Yanzhou seemed to have heard a joke, "What is there about you that I can never forget? Any woman around me can beat you a few blocks away."
"What a coincidence. I think you are useless except for being rich. Several men around me are better than you." Cheng Xi retorted.
Seeing this divorced couple, they have been fighting since the beginning of the lawsuit.
The onlookers expressed their shame.
Tang Lin quickly raised his head and said, "After reading, you can sign."
Pei Yanzhou sneered, "How about it, did I set a trap in the contract, Cheng Xi, not everyone is as shameless as you."
Cheng Xi ignored him, took the contract, crossed out one line, and signed his name.
