Chapter 445

I think I'm already an adult, so it's not okay—everything depends on you. And just then this company came knocking, asking if I wanted to be an artist, so I agreed.

Su Peng had an innocent look.

Su Manyao was exasperated, looking at the person before her, truly at a loss for words.

What a fool!

Can't he just grow a little brain?

Su Manyao, exasperated, looked at him.

Su Peng quickly realized something was off, his face full of confusion as he asked, "I kinda want to know, what exactly is the problem here?" He then forced a smile.

As a month was about to pass, the company he had signed with showed no movement at all.

Combined with his sister and brother-in-law's expressions, he grew increasingly panicked.

Do you know you might be signing that Yin-Yang Contract?

Do you realize you're being treated like an idiot and fooled?" Su Manyao couldn't hold back, walked up to her brother, and fiercely poked his head.

Both Jiang Cheng and I run companies in the Entertainment Circle; not choosing us to sign with would have been fine, but you arbitrarily insisted, and the key is you signed with such a trash company!

I have reason to suspect you're deliberately opposing me, or maybe Mom squeezed your brains out when she gave birth to you, leaving you capable only of foolish acts all day.

The more Su Manyao thought about it, the angrier she got; finally she couldn't bear it and hard poked Su Peng's head.

Su Peng felt wronged.

But when I first learned about it, I thought it was pretty good, not at all what you said..." He felt truly wronged, eyes brimming with tears, as if he'd suffered great harm.

At that time, Jiang Cheng said: "He's absolutely the worst in the Entertainment Circle."

Moreover, over the years various Yin-Yang Contracts have frequently been exposed; once you sign with him, it means you can never turn around. If you want to leave this company, you must pay a huge breach-of-contract fee, and after paying, you'll likely have to endure a long lawsuit before you can get away from them.

By then, your best years will actually have passed.

Jiang Cheng's words made Su Peng panic.

Su Peng panicked, flustered: "No way, how could things be so serious?"

So what should I do now?

He, all flustered, has now been frightened to the bone by this matter.

Just thinking that the contract he signed with them was actually a Yin-Yang Contract, and that he'd eventually have to pay a huge penalty, his face froze.

If I now choose to cancel cooperation with them, doesn't that mean I… still have to pay them a large sum?" Su Peng, looking aggrieved, felt miserable.

Why should I?

If they really deceived him, he shouldn't have to pay them that money!

Instead, they should compensate him for his mental anguish.

Who made you stupid?

Su Manyao, exasperated: "When doing these things, you didn't want to consult us again; instead, you foolishly rushed to cooperate with them, and now look—you've been outright treated like a big idiot and fooled!"

I think you're usually quite smart, but at crucial moments you always impulsively do things that seem perplexing and incomprehensible.

Su Manyao stared intently at the person before her, truly the more she thought, the less she could understand.

This guy's brain isn't that stupid!

But why is it that whenever they try to fool him, he always gets fooled so easily?

And—

The key is he himself can't even react!

Su Peng felt hurt: "I never imagined they'd treat me like an idiot and fool me! If I'd known this from the start, I would never have cooperated with them no matter what."

But I now…

He is now anxious, like an ant on a hot pan.

He is very flustered.

The more he thought, the more flustered he became; now with a wronged look, he only hopes Jiang Cheng can help him.

You're my brother-in-law by blood; you surely have a way to help me solve this, right?" Su Peng can only pin his hopes on Jiang Cheng and them.

If he really signed that Yin-Yang Contract and ends up in a lawsuit, then his future…

Wouldn't that take a long time?

Just thinking about this, his inner panic is uncontrollable.

He imagined the Entertainment Circle too beautifully; at the start, his heart desperately wished everything would go smoothly.

But in the end, he suddenly realized: he's just a big idiot!

As a big idiot, he…

So far, he's already been utterly despised by everyone.

Su Manyao was also speechless, asking incredulously: "Why is my IQ so high, while yours… is simply beyond words?"

Su Peng quietly muttered: "Could it be… that my IQ possibly transferred to you? Or maybe Mom didn't have enough smarts when she gave birth to me, affecting my IQ?"

He had a serious expression.

In front of everyone, what he said was utterly serious.

Su Manyao couldn't hold back, reaching out and striking his head hard twice.

You idiot!

Su Manyao gritted her teeth, looking at this foolish brother before her—his actions nearly pissed her to death.

How can there be someone this stupid?

The key is, just now he was asking on the side with a completely serious face.

Good heavens!

What on earth is this guy thinking?

At this very moment, Su Manyao wished she could tear open Su Peng's head to see what exactly was stuffed inside.

How can his thoughts be so unconventional?

And—

Su Manyao is also trying to figure out a solution right now; she must resolve it quickly.

"If we could find this company's boss now, do you think he'd, out of respect for our two faces, reluctantly agree to cancel the contract with my brother?" Su Manyao is now anxious to death, and she can't just stand by and watch her brother jump into the muddy water.

"Not really sure."

Jiang Cheng said: "Why not give it a try first? Better than us all standing here anxiously."

"Maybe the other side will think our reputation is bigger, get a little flustered, and thus quietly compromise—but there will definitely have to be some compensation."

Wanting to retreat easily when faced with difficulty is somewhat unlikely.

"Then let's go give it a try!"

"If we don't give it a try, us standing here anxiously is really useless." Su Manyao said while glancing at her brother. (End of chapter)
