Chapter 40 Bringing a Man Home
"Sister Tang Zi! Are you alright?"
Lin helped Tang Zi up, his face full of concern.
Tang Zi remained silent, stunned. She hesitated and turned her head to look at Wen Ni's profile.
Her mind was filled with questions: How could this be... How could she be here? And how could she... Stand up for her?
"Ouch! That hurts so much!"
The male agent got up from the ground, grimacing. One side of his cheek was red from the burn, and his clothes were covered in coffee stains.
His bloodshot eyes swept over Wen Ni's face, and he seemed to realize that she was skilled and not to be trifled with. He turned his head and grabbed Tang Zi's wrist again!
"Tang Zi, you come here right now! Or I'll destroy you in a heartbeat!"
"Do not touch me!"
Tang Zi quickly hid behind Lin Yi in fear.
Wen Ni, who was blocking the way, didn't even lift her eyelids. She grabbed her manager's arm and threw him over her shoulder again!
"That's amazing!"
"The legendary older sister-in-law of my husband!"
Not only Lin Yi, but even the coffee shop staff couldn't help but sigh in amazement!
"A manager assaulted a well-known singer in the street."
"Why don't we guess who will be the first to be disgraced?"
As Wen Ni finished speaking.
Lin, standing behind her, raised her phone, and on the screen was a recording of the manager beating Tang Zi!
The video was instantly made public after the user tapped the "[Publish]" button!
"Withdraw, you bitch, withdraw right now!"
The agent's eyes were bloodshot.
But just as he tried to get up, a pair of black boots stomped hard on his stomach, rendering him unable to move!
People around gasped in surprise!
"So handsome!"
"My goodness, he's really handsome," Lin Yi added.
When Wen Ni looked at the man, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes!
He was 1.83 meters tall and wore well-tailored blue overalls.
Beneath that clean-cut, spiky look lies a face with sharp features and a handsome, dashing appearance!
She recognized that face all too well.
"Beacon towers?"
"Hi! The wise and powerful Miss Wen, have you missed me lately?"
With a bright smile, Song Yanfeng kicked the agent aside like a football, then opened his arms wide and walked towards Wen Ni in full view of everyone!
"You know Wen Shen?" Lin asked suddenly.
Tang Zi stared blankly at Song Yanfeng, seemingly still recovering from the shock she had just experienced.
"Tsk, what are you doing here?"
Just one step away, Wen Ni had already reached out and pressed her palm against Song Yanfeng's handsome face, stopping him from trying to get closer!
"Didn't I say in the group chat that I applied for two days off specifically to come and visit you?" Song Yanfeng pouted, looking quite aggrieved. "Boss, you don't even pay attention to me."
"A seconded customs officer can even take a vacation?"
"It's all because President Lu owes us so many holidays; he can't possibly pay them all back."
Listening to their conversation, Lin Yi looked on with admiration. As expected, Wen Shen's friends were all civil servants!
Seeing that he couldn't beat anyone in this situation, the agent looked around furtively and, taking advantage of the moment when no one was looking, slunk away.
Only then did Tang Zi calm down. She took the cool towel handed to her by the coffee shop staff and applied it to her swollen face.
"Wen Ni, why did you help me?"
I remember that during the rehearsal, she even argued with Wen Ni over Lu Jinye...
"I just don't like being disturbed while I'm having coffee."
"That was a really unexpected answer..." Tang Zi forced a smile.
"Sister Tang Zi, isn't he your manager? Why would he treat you like this?" Lin Yi asked curiously.
Mentioning this, Tang Zi's expression darkened again.
"My contract with my agency is about to expire. They know I don't plan to renew it, so they want to squeeze every last drop of value out of me in these last few days. They're getting me all sorts of low-class commercial performances, trying to ruin me..."
At this point, she couldn't help but choke up, and then quickly lowered her head, not wanting Wen Ni and the others to see her in such a disheveled and pitiful state!
"The worst part is that my agent secretly accepted a crossover music festival event organized by a wealthy Burmese businessman!"
"Burmese barbarians?"
Upon hearing the place name, Wen Ni looked up at it with a keen eye.
"That's right, it's the Burmese."
The incident involving Lu Jinye's film crew on the China-Myanmar border a while ago caused quite a stir, and many people in the industry canceled overseas activities involving Myanmar because of it!
Moreover, the local civil war in Myanmar is chaotic, and shootings and shootouts are commonplace!
Tang Zi certainly wouldn't want to go to such a dangerous place.
"The contract is signed, the deposit is received, and if I don't go, I'll face huge compensation!"
Tang Zi sighed deeply and forced a smile. "But with your help today, there might be a turning point after the public outcry. Once the contract is terminated, they won't be able to force me to do things I don't like anymore!"
Even a popular singer like Tang Zi is not in control of her own destiny.
It's not hard to imagine how much capital would exploit anyone else!
"Sister Tang Zi, I hope your wish will come true!"
Lin Yi's sincerity was evident in his words: "I've loved listening to your songs since I was little!"
"..."
Tang Zi, who was twenty-two years old, was unusually silent.
"Hahaha! This kid is interesting, I like him!" Song Yanfeng loved to cheer him on.
Wen Ni glanced at the two of them and, seeing that they had shut up, she said to Tang Zi, "It's getting late, we'll take you home."
"No, no need, I've already had my assistant come pick me up." Tang Zi fidgeted with her fingers somewhat awkwardly. "You've already gone to so much trouble for me today."
"Well then, Wen Shen, I'll stay here with Tang Zi. You and your friend should go back first; you haven't seen each other in a long time, catch up properly!"
Lin saw that it was already completely dark outside, and it was still not safe to leave Tang Zi alone.
"That's fine too."
Wen Ni nodded in agreement.
She turned around and had just reached the door when she heard Tang Zi's very soft voice behind her...
"Thank you, Wen Ni."
"If you really want to thank me, send me money."
Wen Ni's voice was tinged with a playful smile. After speaking, she opened the door of the coffee shop, turned her back to Tang Zi, and waved her hand.
Night lights, bustling traffic,
Wen Ni got into Song Yanfeng's car and they went back to the hotel where she was staying temporarily.
The new house and shop I bought a few days ago have already started renovations, and I won't be able to move in until at least August or September of this year.
So she, along with Wen Cheng, Li Yuanchang, and the Xiao family father and son, temporarily rented two three-bedroom hotel suites for a period of six months.
Upon entering
Upon seeing an unfamiliar man following behind Wen Ni, Wen Cheng and Li Yuanchang's smiles froze.
Wen Cheng, whose head was still bandaged after being discharged from the hospital, was having a lot of internal struggles: My sister actually brought a man home! Should I tell Grandpa Lu about this!?
Li Yuanchang's mind was even more complicated: Oh no, how did the girl pick up another young and strong guy? What if he's physically strong and smart too, and takes my job?
Faced with the complex gazes of these two people,
Song Yanfeng felt a chill run down his spine for no apparent reason...
"The young man looks very strong!"
At the dining table in the living room,
Li Yuanchang and Wen Cheng sat facing Song Yanfeng, the scene resembling an interrogation...
"Does it have abs, pecs, and biceps?"
