As Du Muchen carried the struggling Su Peishan out of the manor, a black sedan slowly drove up.

The people in the car seemed to have noticed them as well, and the car slowly stopped in front of Du Muchen and the others.

Xinghe stepped forward and glanced into the car.

The driver's side door opened, and a middle-aged man in a suit stepped out; he appeared to be a professional driver.

Just as they had guessed, after the other person got out of the car, he glanced in their direction first, then walked to the back seat. The back window slowly rolled down, and the driver whispered a few words to the other person.

The people inside the car looked over here.

They said something to the driver, who nodded and walked towards them.

"Are you all people sent by President Mu to welcome Mr. Tebus?" The driver looked at Du Muchen, who was at the head of the group.

The lights outside were dim. The driver felt that the young man in front of him looked somewhat familiar, but he didn't pay attention to celebrities in the entertainment industry, so he naturally didn't associate Du Muchen with any star or artist. Subconsciously, he thought that Du Muchen was someone from the Aifu Group.

Upon hearing the name Tebus, Du Muchen and Su Peishan both looked towards the car.

You can vaguely see an elderly man with a full head of white hair sitting in the back seat.

“We’ve moved here to wait for Mr. Tebus,” Du Muchen said.

Su Peishan looked at him in surprise, not understanding what this kid was up to.

"Okay, please wait a moment."

The driver nodded politely, then turned and walked back to the car.

"Mr. Tebus, Mr. Mu's men have arrived."

"Hmm!" Tebus glanced curiously at Du Muchen and Su Peishan.

They came to pick me up, so why was that man holding a woman in his arms?

This seems illogical.

The driver opened the car door, and Tebus stepped out of the car without hesitation.

"Du Muchen, what do you want to do?"

"Just watch the show, you'll understand in a bit."

Du Muchen smiled and looked at the old man who was walking towards him.

The driver accompanied the elderly man with a full head of white hair as he slowly walked over. The old man looked to be around seventy years old, with the sculpted features of a foreigner and fair skin. Although his hair was completely white, he still looked radiant and full of energy.

He leaned on a cane and slowly walked towards Du Muchen.

As Du Muchen sized him up, he also quickly glanced at Du Muchen and Su Peishan.

When Tebus met Du Muchen's calm gaze, he seemed to understand something.

"You weren't sent by Mu Qing to greet me, were you?"

Unexpectedly, the old man revealed their identities as soon as he opened his mouth.

Du Muchen gave a faint smile.

"No wonder he's the owner of the world's number one luxury brand."

Du Muchen was genuinely praising him with those words.

Tebus owns numerous businesses, and the Aifu luxury skincare brand is just one of his investment projects. He also designs high-end jewelry, clothing, and handbags, and even has a great reputation in the stock market.

In front of such an elderly person, all lies will have nowhere to hide.

"Let me formally introduce myself, Mr. Tebus. My name is Du Muchen."

“Du Muchen?” Tebus pondered for a few seconds, then smiled kindly, “You were the spokesperson for the spring/summer series invited by the Aifu men’s skincare line last year. I remember you.”

Although Tebus is getting old, all important contracts within the company still have to be reviewed and approved by him.

Although he didn't have much of an impression of Du Muchen's appearance, he remembered his name.

"Last year, the skincare product you endorsed broke the annual sales record in just three months, which shows that Mr. Du has a great influence in the Chinese market. So why did you suddenly announce the termination of your cooperation with Aifu later?"

He had a deep impression of Du Muchen.

Thanks to his influence, the skincare product achieved unexpected success.

Originally, the headquarters of Ave wanted to upgrade him to Ave's global spokesperson, but just three months after the contract was signed, he suddenly proposed to terminate the contract. Even though he faced a huge penalty for breach of contract, Du Muchen still insisted on terminating the contract.

He was very puzzled by this.

However, the Yatai region has always been managed by Mu Qing, and he highly recognizes Mu Qing's abilities.

The reason given by the Chinese side was that Du Muchen valued his reputation very much, and at that time he happened to have accepted a film that he was very optimistic about. After careful consideration, he decided to give up some of his newly signed endorsements and focus on filming.

This reason seems reasonable, but Tebs felt that terminating the contract at the last minute was very irresponsible.

Du Muchen was not in a hurry to answer Tebus's question.

"Mr. Tebs, what have you heard as the reason for my contract termination?"

"They said it was a scheduling issue."

Du Muchen scoffed, a hint of mockery flashing in his eyes.

"My decision to terminate the contract wasn't due to scheduling conflicts, but because the men's skincare products from the Gold Coast line that I endorsed contained dangerously high levels of mercury. Using these products could easily lead to mercury poisoning for people with sensitive skin. Were you unaware of this?"

When I signed the endorsement deal, I didn't have any doubts about the ingredients of that skincare product for the first few months.

After all, Ave is a top international brand, and it has very strict control over the ingredients of its skincare products.

It wasn't until a fan bought the skincare product and was hospitalized with mercury poisoning that he took notice.

He then informed the Eve branch about the matter.

However, this incident did not attract the attention of the higher-ups at Ave. They even thought he was being arrogant and making a mountain out of a molehill.

They also claimed that all skincare products on the market contain mercury.

The two sides have conflicting accounts of the matter, and his agency advised him to turn a blind eye and pretend he knew nothing.

Allergic reactions and poisoning are isolated cases. Every skincare product will encounter its own problems. Other celebrities also understand this rule. In order to make money, even if they don't know how to use the product themselves, they will still do their best to promote the brand.

But Du Muchen couldn't do that; he didn't accept the endorsement for the money.

Since the product is sold under its own name, it must be absolutely safe.

As a result, he and Eve completely broke up.
