Unexpectedly, Li Mengmeng didn't buy Xiao Chen's tricks at all. She sneered and said, "Xiao Chen, do you think everyone is like you?"
"If you refuse, the consequences will be dire." Xiao Chen's face darkened.
"Then I can also tell you clearly that I, Li Mengmeng, will never bow to capital."
Li Mengmeng stared at Xiao Chen and spoke word by word. Then she pulled Xiao Ming up and said, "Let's go, Xiao Ming. Don't pay attention to him."
"What kind of drama are you playing?" After the two left, Su Muyu looked at Xiao Chen with some confusion.
"Xiao Ming is living too comfortably. Let's put some pressure on him." Xiao Chen smiled slightly.
He picked up the phone and asked, "Aunt, Xiao Ming has a big production contract coming up?"
"I heard his company is frantically issuing announcements to hype the situation." Wen Wan asked, "Why, intercept it?"
"Let's intercept it. We can't let him get too proud." Xiao Chen smiled slightly.
"Okay, no problem. I'm familiar with the director and the investors." Wen Wan smiled slightly.
"Thank you, auntie. With you around, I've saved myself a lot of trouble." Xiao Chen chuckled.
"When I'm old, you have to be filial to me." Wen Wan made a joke and then hung up the phone.
"Li Mengmeng, starting today, you're completely off. From now on, you won't even be able to take on street performances."
"Also, there's suspicion of fraud in several of your contracts. We're going to sue you, and you'll have to pay the liquidated damages."
Li Mengmeng received a call from the company and her face turned pale. She silently put away her phone without saying a word.
"Mengmeng, you came here according to the contract. There's no breach of contract. On the contrary, they deliberately hid you. They are the ones who breached the contract."
Xiao Ming, standing aside, said indignantly, "Don't be afraid. I'll help you find a lawyer and sue them."
"It's useless, Xiao Ming. They are the investors and have background and connections. I am just an ordinary person and cannot beat them." Li Mengmeng forced a smile.
But her expression showed that she was very confused.
If an artist is sued by his own entertainment company, he will definitely not have a good ending.
And how could she possibly fight against capital with her own strength?
"Don't worry, I'll ask my Aunt Yu for help. She has a wide network of contacts and is popular. She will definitely be able to help you." Xiao Ming said, holding her hand.
"Really?" Li Mengmeng raised her head with a look of surprise on her face.
But then she lowered her head and said hesitantly, "Let's not do that. I'll owe you a favor."
"What is our relationship? What's the point of talking about favors? Mengmeng, you don't consider me your friend at all." Xiao Ming was a little angry.
"I'm not afraid of owing you a favor, but I'm afraid that you owe Aunt Yu a favor." Li Mengmeng touched Xiao Ming's face with some heartache.
"Your Aunt Yu is good to you, but there is still a layer of distance between us."
"Besides, the investors behind Nuanguang Entertainment are very difficult to deal with. Even if she helps me, she will be taking a huge risk."
"You owe her a huge debt for taking such a big risk for a stranger like me."
"So this is what you're worried about." Xiao Ming breathed a sigh of relief, and then said with some emotion: "Mengmeng, you really care about me."
"In this world, apart from my biological parents, no one has ever cared about me so much."
"But don't worry, Aunt Yu and I have a special relationship, she will help me."
"It's better to say goodbye, Xiao Ming. No matter how special our relationship is, it's not worth her taking such a big risk for me. You have to know that there is no free lunch in this world."
"You let Aunt Yu help you like this, she must have some ulterior motive, right?"
"No, she will help me. We have a special relationship. Don't worry, I'll call her now." Xiao Ming said with a smile.
"No, I don't know what your relationship is, but I know that favors must be repaid." Li Mengmeng quickly stopped Xiao Ming.
"This favor is so great, I'm afraid we won't be able to repay it in the future."
"She, I can't tell you about our relationship, but please rest assured that you don't need to repay her favor," Xiao Ming said.
He was very touched that Li Mengmeng cared so much about him.
Li Mengmeng looked straight at Xiao Ming without saying a word.
"Mengmeng, what's wrong with you?" Xiao Ming looked at her blankly, not knowing what was wrong with her.
"Forget it, just go away. You don't need to care about my business." Li Mengmeng said in a stiff tone.
"You, are you angry?" Xiao Ming was stunned.
"No, I can handle my own affairs." Li Mengmeng still spoke in a stiff tone.
"You are just angry. Did I do anything wrong?" Xiao Ming asked in confusion.
"Xiao Ming, I always thought that we were the same kind of people and that we could tell each other our secrets without reservation."
Li Mengmeng sighed: "But now I realize that it's not the case. You are still wary of me."
"No, Mengmeng, it's really not true." Xiao Ming began to panic: "Mengmeng, it's not that I don't want to tell you about my relationship with Aunt Yu, but I haven't found a good time yet."
"I'll take you to see her someday. I'll tell her that I like you, and then you'll naturally understand what our relationship is."
"She, she is my elder. This is all I can tell you now."
"Her surname is Yu, and yours is Xiao. How is she related to you?" Li Mengmeng asked.
"Her last name is not Yu. I will tell you her last name later. Anyway, Mengmeng, you have to believe me. With her coming forward, you will be fine." Xiao Ming said confidently.
"Okay, I believe you." Li Mengmeng thought about it and still felt that she couldn't be too hasty, so she could only nod slightly.
But today is not too bad, I didn’t gain nothing.
At least it was clarified that Xiao Ming and Madam Yu were indeed related.
Li Mengmeng rejected Xiao Ming's offer to send her back and went to the lake.
By the lake, Xiao Chen had already set up a barbecue stall and was sprinkling seasonings on the golden grilled chicken wings.
"Are you here? That's great. Try my grilled chicken wings." Xiao Chen smiled and handed over the thing in his hand.
"Thank you." A look of surprise appeared on Li Mengmeng's face.
This was baked by Xiao Chen himself. She took the chicken wings, blew on them carefully, and then put them to her mouth.
"Delicious." Li Mengmeng's eyes lit up. The chicken wings were roasted to the perfect temperature and were crispy when eaten.
"If it tastes good, eat more." Xiao Chen smiled and continued to grill.
"Xiao Ming is still wary, but I can confirm one thing: she and Madam Yu are related."
Li Mengmeng said: "They are relatives, but I haven't figured out the specific relationship yet. I can only find out when I meet her."
"Meet Madam Yu? You'd better not go. This person is very dangerous." Xiao Chen shook his head.
"In fact, as long as I find out that she is related to Xiao Ming, I will know who she is."
"But things haven't been verified yet, right?" Li Mengmeng's tone was a little stubborn.
