Chapter 447

In front of Jiang Cheng, they were being extremely greedy.

Given Jiang Cheng and Su Manyao's status, they have already become big-shot figures in the Entertainment Circle.

Zhou Xin Qiao's behavior seems more like he's challenging Jiang Cheng.

As soon as the other party came up, they put forward some unreasonable demands.

Jiang Cheng calmly placed the contract's contents in front of the other party.

Zhou Xin Qiao didn't agree, raised his eyebrows, and asked doubtfully, "I don't know what you mean exactly." This is his contract with Su Peng, but Jiang Cheng placed it in front of him, obviously having an opinion.

The clauses above simply don't follow the rules; you're basically screwing over newcomers, relying on their lack of understanding to make them sign the Yin-Yang Contract, and once they discover a problem or want to terminate the contract, they must pay huge liquidated damages.

Jiang Cheng looked at him, who was still quite young, yet his actions were rather despicable.

Zhou Xin Qiao's gaze deepened: "So you didn't come this time to discuss terminating the contract with me? You specially ran over here to wreck my place?" Although he still had a smile on his face, his eyes gradually turned much fiercer.

He knew Jiang Cheng's status was noble, and many people wanted to take this opportunity to talk cooperation with Jiang Cheng. Su Peng is Jiang Cheng's brother, and he was indeed somewhat surprised.

But in the contract, the black-and-white terms are already written clearly.

Jiang Cheng coming now to cause trouble isn't appropriate, is it?

His gaze fell on Jiang Cheng, always wearing a smile.

"If you are sincere in coming to me about terminating the contract, that's naturally a good thing. But if you're deliberately here to make things difficult, I think this matter isn't necessary."

He looked at Jiang Cheng, his face always bearing a smile.

But his smile didn't reach his eyes.

Even carrying a hint of fierceness in his gaze, as if he had been warning Jiang Cheng all along.

All he wanted was for Jiang Cheng not to go too far.

However——

Jiang Cheng said calmly, "I didn't come here this time to threaten you; I'm just reminding you that what you're doing now is a bit too underhanded!" Jiang Cheng gazed lightly at the person before him, hoping he might retain a shred of conscience.

However, it's obvious that Zhou Xin Qiao has no conscience at all.

He does not agree.

"If you're sincerely here to talk with me, I warmly welcome your arrival. But if you're deliberately here to cause me trouble, then please hurry back."

"Su Peng's abilities are quite good; I've also been very optimistic about him lately, and we're currently discussing a pretty decent project. As long as he can please me, I will definitely let him take the male lead role in this."

"That is, we'll see if he puts in enough effort later. Also, if you deliberately stir up trouble for him here, causing disagreements between us, making his future days difficult, then all of that will be entirely your fault."

"Besides, I know your status now is quite formidable; although you're formidable, you still need to respect my rules here." He always had a smile on his face as he blurted out those words, which, once heard, were really rather unpleasant.

Back then, Zhou Xin Qiao was also a person with a proud temper.

His getting to this point is inseparable from his own efforts, although a large part of it indeed came from his dabbling in Yin-Yang Contracts, through which he smoothly profited quite a bit.

But he doesn't think he's inadequate!

Including now, he thinks he's quite formidable.

That is, someone like Jiang Cheng, who grew up pampered, doesn't understand how he has endured hardship from childhood, which has made him doubt life many times.

He gradually became stronger.

Without realizing it, he achieved his current success.

At present.

Jiang Cheng's attitude annoyed him.

"I'm not here to wreck things; I just want to remind you that your approach will eventually bring you disaster. You just haven't touched that sore spot yet, so everything's still smooth sailing."

"But if you keep going, are you sure you can bear the consequences…?" He still had a smile on his face, while Jiang Cheng quietly gazed at the person before him, observing the reaction.

The other party's eyes turned sharp: "Then there's no need for you to remind me of these things here!"

"I have my rules here, and as for the rest…" Zhou Xin Qiao warned Jiang Cheng with his eyes: "Just say it straight—what exactly do you want now? If you're trying to take advantage to threaten me, I can only tell you that you will absolutely not succeed!"

"I don't dare to threaten this."

"I just hope you can follow the proper procedure; if it's proper, I'll compensate the funds that are due." Jiang Cheng also didn't want to entangle too much with the other party; being able to talk things out nicely would naturally be best.

But if the other party disagrees, then Jiang Cheng can only look for an opportunity to resolve the issue.

Zhou Xin Qiao fell silent for a moment.

He looked at Jiang Cheng, sinking into silence.

After a short while, his eyes flashed with some anger, probably because he thought Jiang Cheng was doing this on purpose.

"I'm just following what's written in the contract!"

"You're a smart person; you should know what I mean." He glanced at Jiang Cheng, still unwilling to compromise.

Thinking about compromising later, he realized he wouldn't be able to gain certain benefits from it. Moreover, Su Peng looks like a rich young master at first glance, his family is wealthy, definitely not lacking a few million.

He's different; his life has always been hard, with many problems.

Especially when he was young, his current achievements came only after enduring countless hardships.

His methods were somewhat underhanded, but he felt…

"I have no problems at all!"

He looked at Jiang Cheng, smiling: "You're smart, and I know you don't want to make a big fuss. I also hope Su Peng can continue to thrive in the Entertainment Circle; why don't you just agree to me?"

"Besides, after this we'll be square, and there will be no further entanglements between our two families—don't you think that's great?" Zhou Xin Qiao tried to lure Jiang Cheng in this way.

Jiang Cheng's ability to reach this position is certainly not accidental.

Faced with those words from the other party, Jiang Cheng couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.

"I have to say, your courage is indeed huge; even now you still want to lure me this way. But I'll stick with what I said before: if you don't want to blow things up, or if you hope your entertainment company can continue to operate smoothly, then my advice must be… to follow a normal contract!"
