Chapter 440 How to Sell My Daughter
"From today on, Wen Yang has nothing to do with you."
Yu Tian interrupted him, and the chill in his voice immediately silenced Wen Tao, "Remember our agreement. If Wen Yang is harassed again because of you..."
He took a step forward, his dark eyes flashing coldly under the light. "I'll personally teach you a lesson ten thousand times more painful than the debt collection agencies!"
Wen Tao's face turned pale, but he quickly forced out a flattering smile: "How could that be! Our Yangyang is so lucky to have found a boyfriend like you!"
Yu Tian turned and walked towards the door, looking back one last time before stepping over the threshold: "By the way, when you don't have enough money..."
He glanced meaningfully at the debt collection letters covering the table. "Remember to look for me, not Wen Yang."
After the door was closed, he heard cheers and quarrels erupting from inside the house. Wen Tao was shouting, "I'm finally rich," while Wen's mother was crying, "How could you sell your daughter?"
The next moment, Wen Shiming ordered them to shut up.
Yu Tian's eyes were cold and he walked downstairs quickly.
Back in the car, he checked the documents again, Wen Yang's household registration page, birth certificate, and even her childhood vaccination records.
Each piece of paper represented her legal connection to the family, and now, it was all in his hands.
Yu Tian started the car and looked at the time. It was 8:20 in the evening. Wen Yang should have gone back.
He hesitated for a moment and called Xu Fangli.
"Brother Tian?"
Xu Fangli's voice was filled with confusion, "Where have you been?"
"I did some work. Where's Yangyang?"
"She's in her room, right? What's wrong?"
Yu Tian took a deep breath. "I'll be home soon. Is it convenient for you to come over to my place? Don't let Yangyang know."
Fang Li was puzzled, but she packed up her things and went to the small building where Yu Tian lived.
Half an hour later, Yu Tian's car stopped at the door of the small building.
He walked in shrouded in cold air, sat down, and placed a brown paper file bag on the table in front of the two of them.
"What is this?" Xu Fangli asked after sitting down.
Yu Tian pushed the file bag over: "Wen Yang's household registration documents."
He briefly explained the deal for the night, "I'll put it in your place."
Xu Fangli's eyes widened. "Eight hundred thousand? As far as I know, you only received less than two million in compensation when you retired. You're going to start a security company, but giving so much money to the Wen family..."
Yu Tian took a sip of the now-cold tea and said, "We can raise more start-up capital for the security company."
"Why don't you tell Wen Yang?"
"She'll object."
Yu Tian smiled bitterly, "You know her personality. She'd rather handle it herself than owe anyone a favor."
Xu Fangli nodded thoughtfully, then suddenly remembered something: "Wait, you didn't just want her household registration to keep her out of the Wen family's control, right?"
Yu Tian's expression remained unchanged, but Fang Li inexplicably felt that something had changed in his ears.
He stared down at the teacup, his voice almost squeezed out from the corner of his lips: "It's nothing... I'll save it for later."
Xu Fangli raised her eyebrows but didn't ask any further questions.
She put away the file bag and said, "Han Xi will be back the day after tomorrow. Do you want to have dinner together? The four of us?"
Yu Tian nodded, and when he stood up, the collar of his shirt was slightly open. Xu Fangli noticed that he had a thin silver chain hanging around his neck. The pendant was hidden in his clothes, but the outline looked like a ring.
"Brother Tian."
Xu Fangli suddenly stopped him and said, "Some things should be done once you've made up your mind. Who knows, maybe those things you're worried about won't be problems at all."
Yu Tian's expression paused for a moment, then he curled his lips slightly: "I know, I will."
One day at work, Fang Li found that something was wrong with Wen Yang as soon as she entered the company.
Her fingertips seemed to be sliding gently on the tablet, adjusting the font size of the last page of the PPT, but in fact her peripheral vision was always keeping an eye on Wen Yang outside.
Outside the glass door of the conference room, Wen Yang was walking by with her head lowered, holding a stack of notices in her hands. Even her short hair, which was usually neat and tidy, was a little messy and curly today.
"Yangyang?"
Xu Fangli knocked on the glass and waved at her: "What's wrong? Is there a problem with the artist selection?"
Wen Yang seemed startled, nearly dropping the information in his hand. Fortunately, he quickly recovered and walked around to the door, saying with a smile, "No, it's just a screening of actors for a short play. Many students from film and television academies are willing to give it a try, so it's no problem."
"Is that so? Then I see why you are still frowning."
Wen Yang forced a smile, "Maybe I slept too late last night and didn't sleep well."
Xu Fangli looked at her calmly. She had obvious dark circles under her eyes and a shallow pinch mark on the back of her left hand, as if she had scratched it hard.
"Go to the lounge and take a nap at noon. I'll ask Tiantian to bring you food."
"good."
Wen Yang has been distracted ever since the farce in the restaurant last week, but whenever Xu Fangli wanted to ask her in detail, she would change the subject.
"By the way, are you free this afternoon?"
Xu Fangli pretended not to notice Wen Yang's abnormality. "I'm planning to go to the Divine Emperor Dao crew to take a look. Will you come with me?"
Wen Yang nodded, but her eyes drifted off into the distance. "Okay, call me when we leave this afternoon. I'll be busy now."
She left in a hurry, not even noticing the elevator coming, and went straight to the emergency exit.
Xu Fangli looked at her back thoughtfully until Zhou Yufan's voice came from the conference room: "Fang Li? Everyone is here."
In the conference room, the core members of the planning department have already taken their seats.
Fang Li came back to her senses, temporarily put Wen Yang's matter in her heart, and turned to look at everyone.
"Everyone."
Fang Li stood in front of the projector and got straight to the point. "The film 'Bright Star,' a collaboration between Yaoxing Media and the Yu family, is about to wrap up and is expected to be released during the Spring Festival."
"Everyone knows that after the merger of Liyun and Xingyu, we haven't released a single decent work yet. This market has always been about the work. If we can't produce a qualified work, then Xingli will never be able to gain a firm foothold in this industry."
Someone said, "But aren't we entering the short drama market? As soon as our short drama is released, this piece of cake will belong to Xingli. Can we not worry too much about other aspects for now?"
Fang Li smiled and shook her head. "Why do you think Mr. Zhou and I are secretly entering the short drama market? Is it really just to take over this piece of the pie?"
Zhou Yufan curled his lips. "Short dramas offer low investment and high returns, but they can only be considered a shortcut for Xingli to survive. To put it bluntly, occupying the short drama market is also laying the foundation for Xingli's development in the film and television industry. If we want to truly gain a foothold in this industry, we can't rely solely on short dramas."
Fang Li pressed the computer button, and the screen showed stills from the drama "Bright Star". The dazzling costumes and props, and the actors' attire and appearance were all carefully thought out.
Especially the jewelry in it, every actor wears a priceless treasure.
This movie deserves the support of Yu family. No other crew can afford such a big budget!
