"Sit down!" Xiao Zhu tugged at his clothes and called softly, her voice full of helplessness, as if she was about to cry at any moment.
Zheng Xu impatiently shook him off, but seemed to have found a way out, so he pursed his lips and sat down.
"Second, after passing the assessment, you will be able to write your own lyrics and compose your own music. The company will give you a year. If there is no improvement, you can terminate the contract yourself."
"Third, let's leave now."
Meng Wan covered his documents on the table, looked at him, and asked, "Which one do you choose?"
"I won't choose either one!" Ignoring Xiao Zhu's objections, Zheng Xu walked up to Meng Wan.
"What's wrong with you? How dare you point fingers at me? Is there no one in charge of this company? They put a teenage girl in charge? Let me tell you, call Moon over here. I'll talk to her! You just want money, right? What He Tong can give, I can give too. I also have a million followers!"
He Tong, whose name was called, crossed his arms, shrugged, and looked on with amusement.
"As for you? Don't pretend to be an adult, little brat. Go back and take your exam. Don't get a zero and get a beating from your parents."
"So you chose the third one, is that right?" Meng Wan asked calmly, showing no displeasure at being provoked.
"Didn't you hear me! I! Don't! Choose!" Zheng Xu jabbed at the table, his eyes bulging as if they were about to pop out.
Meng Wan lost her patience. "Sister Bai, prepare the termination agreement."
"Yes, I'll have someone bring it over right away." Not daring to delay, Sister Bai got up and went outside to make a phone call. The conference room was separated by transparent glass, and Sister Bai stood outside, glancing inside every now and then.
"Hey! What do you mean? You want to terminate my contract? Do you know who my father is! I won't lose anything by firing me, you're the ones who will lose!" Zheng Xu was agitated. The two weren't far apart, and Meng Wan could even see him spitting out saliva.
Her hands were clenched tightly together, while Zheng Xu was completely unaware of the danger that was about to befall him.
"We're doomed." He Tong said, but his face showed a look of anticipation. Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, Meng Wan threw a punch at his face.
Zheng Xu was knocked to the ground by a punch, which also knocked over two chairs. Xiao Zhu screamed in fright and quickly squatted down next to Zheng Xu to check his injuries. Zheng Xu, too, covered his rapidly swollen cheek with an incredulous expression.
After finishing her call, Bai Liling saw this scene and hurriedly hung up the phone and ran in, but in the end she just sighed and went out to make another call.
"You crazy woman, do you know how much my face costs! I'm going to sue you! I'm going to sue your unscrupulous company!" Zheng Xu pointed at Meng Wan, his words abruptly pulling at the wound on his lip, causing him to gasp.
"The lawyer from Libra Law Firm has arrived. If you need a medical examination to assess your injuries, please wait for our lawyer to arrive. Xiao Zhu, you can also accompany Mr. Zheng to the hospital. Come see me when you get back."
Bai Liling calmly arranged the relevant matters without the slightest panic. He Tong, seemingly already used to it, took a pack of tissues from her bag and handed it to Meng Wan.
The lawyer arrived quickly, and to be on the safe side, Bai Liling went with him, leaving only Meng Wan and He Tong in the conference room in the blink of an eye.
"Not bad, you've grown up and are quite tolerant."
"It's filthy." Meng Wan's words were filled with undisguised disgust.
"But I thought you would compose music for your brother."
“He hasn’t established himself yet. Right now, your fans all think we’re a team. If I were to compose music for him now, each of your fans could ruin him with just one line.”
"I didn't realize you cared so much about your brother."
Meng Wan ignored his comment and continued, "Besides, he wants to develop his career as a singer, which would be perfect for filling the gap left by your career change. You heard his audition, what did you think?"
"It's pretty good, very unique, and completely different from my type."
“This is exactly what I wanted.” He Tong’s voice was rather cold, while Meng Zhilian’s voice had a unique depth, so he wouldn’t be anyone’s substitute, he would only be Meng Zhilian.
"You seem quite confident in him, certain he can stand shoulder to shoulder with me?"
“Surpassing you is not impossible,” Meng Wan replied without hesitation.
"oh?"
"These are songs he wrote." Meng Wan pulled out a few sheets of paper from the folder, about ten or so.
He Tong raised an eyebrow, but still took it and started reading.
At that moment, Meng Zhilian suddenly ran in, startling the two of them.
"Wanwan, are you alright?" Meng Zhilian rushed over to Meng Wan, pinching her chin and looking her over anxiously. He Tong looked up from behind the A4 paper and saw Jason panting heavily at the door, and roughly understood the reason.
"I'm fine." Meng Wan mumbled as her chin was being pinched, but she didn't slap Meng Zhilian's hand away.
"Zheng Xu's face looks really swollen. What happened?"
"It's nothing, I just beat him up."
"You beat her up?" Meng Zhilian's tone rose slightly. Meng Wan thought he was going to teach her a lesson for being too impulsive, but to her surprise, Meng Zhilian grabbed her hand and looked her over from left to right.
"Doesn't your hand hurt?"
"No...it doesn't hurt." Meng Wan was also a little stunned.
Seeing Meng Wan like this for the first time, He Tong chuckled. "Don't worry, this person is trained; only the other person will feel the pain."
"Forces are reciprocal, and besides, a young girl's skin is naturally more delicate." For the first time, Meng Zhilian felt dissatisfied with her idol.
"Don't worry, bro, I'm really fine. Have you finished your tour?"
"Hmm, that's about it."
"Okay, I still have some things to take care of. You should go back first. Aren't you supposed to be doing your final performance at the tavern tonight?"
"and you……"
"Go ahead, Sister Bai will contact you about the follow-up matters."
"Okay, I'll be going now. Call me if you need anything." Meng Zhilian was a little worried, but since Meng Wan had said so, he couldn't argue with her.
"Okay." Meng Wan waved to him.
Meng Wan finally breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Meng Zhilian off.
"This is the first time I've seen you with this expression." He Tong found it rather amusing.
Meng Wan ignored him, only giving him a completely unladylike glare. "Finished reading?"
"I glanced at it briefly."
"How about it?"
"We'll see." He Tong raised an eyebrow and pushed the A4 paper back.
"Stubborn to the end," Meng Wan muttered, but He Tong pretended not to hear.
"Where are you going?" He Tong asked instinctively as he watched Meng Wan pack her things.
"None of your business. I'm leaving. Please give the documents to Sister Bai for me later."
He Tong was somewhat helpless, while Meng Wan was quite carefree. After handing over the documents, she dusted herself off and left, leaving He Tong alone with the documents and shaking his head.
"This little girl... still talking to herself like that."
Even so, he had already stood up and walked towards Bai Liling's office.
