Lin Xiaorou stood by the window with the summons in her hand. She thought about it for a long time before finally making up her mind.
She has been keeping a close eye on what's happening at the company lately.
The company's informants would also give her daily reports on the company's situation.
Therefore, she was fully aware of the company and Guan Jiancheng's work.
Given the current situation, if Guan Jiancheng were to remain, the board of directors might genuinely perceive her as incompetent.
Lin Xiaorou called Ming Jiayi and invited her to a very remote mountain villa.
Ming Jiayi sat calmly on the sofa, exuding a very powerful aura.
"Mr. Lin, what can I do for you?"
Although Lin Xiaorou wore heavy makeup, it still couldn't hide her weakness.
"You should know why I asked you out, right?"
Ming Jiayi stirred her drink, but didn't dare to drink it. She slowly and deliberately spoke, word by word.
"Of course I know. But I will definitely not drop the lawsuit."
Lin Xiaorou smiled weakly, "Okay, you don't know why I asked you out."
Ming Jiayi looked up and sized up Lin Xiaorou, waiting for her to say what she was going to say next.
Lin Xiaorou took two documents out of her bag and placed them on the table. She said with a sincere expression,
"I apologize for my previous rudeness towards you. I shouldn't have helped Guan Jiancheng exploit you. These two documents are the contracts you signed when you were with the company. I am now terminating your contracts on behalf of the company."
Ming Jiayi picked up the two documents and looked at Lin Xiaorou with some confusion.
What's going on here?
Lin Xiaorou doesn't think these things can threaten her, does she?
“You don’t need to look at me like that. I’m not trying to threaten you with these things,” Lin Xiaorou replied directly.
Ming Jiayi smiled.
Lin Xiaorou truly lives up to her reputation as someone who built Yule Entertainment from scratch; her ability to see through people's thoughts is truly first-rate.
"If you're not threatening me, then you're trying to bribe me? Let me guess."
Ming Jiayi put down the documents, crossed her legs, and then rested her chin on her hands on the table, watching Lin Xiaorou with great interest.
"You think Guan Jiancheng is beyond redemption now. If we continue to let him stay in the company, the board of directors will be dissatisfied and will also become suspicious of you, right?"
Lin Xiaorou blinked and smiled gently, "Yes."
Ming Jiayi smiled and continued her analysis.
"So now you want to kick him away, but you don't want to do it yourself, so you need someone's help."
Based on the information you've gathered at the company and the current situation, you think I'm the most suitable person? But you're not entirely sure I'll help you, so you're trying to use these things to curry favor with me, hoping I'll willingly become your pawn?
Lin Xiaorou chuckled, "That's right, you guessed correctly."
Ming Jiayi picked up the two documents on the table again with a very affected gesture. She glanced at them and said with some disdain,
"Unfortunately, these things won't please me. I will target Guan Jiancheng, but it will absolutely not be because of you, and I will never become your pawn. On the contrary, you might become my pawn."
Lin Xiaorou frowned slightly. "What do you mean by that?"
“I thought you were a formidable character,” Ming Jiayi mocked, “but you seem to be nothing special today.”
Lin Xiaorou retorted in a slightly soft voice,
"Whether I am a formidable character or not, we can wait and see. If you make judgments about me based solely on this, then I don't think you deserve to be my pawn."
Ming Jiayi answered calmly but somewhat arrogantly.
"You knew perfectly well that your husband was cheating on you, yet you turned a blind eye. You knew perfectly well that Guan Jiancheng was targeting the company and slowly transferring your assets, yet you remained completely unmoved."
Just because he's the father of your child, just because you love him, you can pretend you don't see anything. Based on that alone, you really are nothing special.
"If I were to pretend I didn't see it, why would I be here looking for you now? You're contradicting yourself," Lin Xiaorou replied.
Ming Jiayi raised an eyebrow and answered slowly.
"No, you are not contradicting yourself. You were indeed pretending not to see it before because you still needed to use Guan Jiancheng."
And now, you don't need him anymore, so you've come to me.
Having said all that, Lin Xiaorou stopped trying to dodge the question with Ming Jiayi. She changed her demeanor, straightened her back, and said seriously,
“Ming Jiayi, since you won’t just say what you want to say, then I will.”
Ming Jiayi nodded and said in a calm but quick tone, "I would like to hear the details."
"I have a boyfriend, no, to be more precise, we're secretly dating."
Lin Xiaorou had a boyfriend in college, and the two talked about marriage when they graduated. However, because they were not well-matched, the man's parents refused to agree.
Both had their own considerations, so after more than half a year of internal struggle, they began a mysterious underground relationship.
Why is it called Miqi?
This is because the man was forced by his parents to marry a woman of so-called equal social standing, and Lin Xiaorou also married Guan Jiancheng in a fit of anger.
But in the end, these were just two sham marriages without love.
Not long after Lin Xiaorou got married, her husband approached her, and not long after that, Lin Xiaorou discovered she was pregnant.
She knew the child was her boyfriend's, so she was determined to give birth to it.
Guan Jiancheng was naturally unhappy about being cuckolded, so he tried every means to make Lin Xiaorou miscarry.
Lin Xiaorou found the man and then had him negotiate with Guan Jiancheng.
He invested a sum of money in Guan Jiancheng and Lin Xiaorou, which the two could use to start a company. Guan Jiancheng would then be given a large portion of the company's shares.
The conditions were that Guan Jiancheng would not harm Lin Xiaorou again, and the two signed a contract stating that it was only a contractual marriage and that they could not have any physical relationship.
Guan Jiancheng was naturally happy to agree.
This way, he would not only have money, but no one would stop him from doing whatever he wanted. If he ever needed money, he could threaten that man to give it to him. Wouldn't that be great?
Over the years, Lin Xiaorou has handled all the major and minor affairs of the company, as well as some key powers, but the money the company earns has basically flowed into Guan Jiancheng's pocket.
Lin Xiaorou had always known about the good deeds Guan Jiancheng had done at the company.
But she still needed this contractual marriage as a cover; she couldn't let the man's parents know that the two of them were still in contact, so she continued to let Guan Jiancheng do as he pleased.
But things are different now; Lin Xiaorou has given birth to a son and a daughter for that man.
Furthermore, she now owns a large entertainment company, so it can be said that she and that man are a perfect match, and his parents have no reason to disagree.
