CHAPTER 32: CHAPTER 32: CONTRACT TERMINATION SUCCESSFUL

"Why do you want to terminate the contract? Has Emperor Entertainment treated you poorly? As long as you stay with Emperor, you’ll have your pick of resources. Any resources the company can get, you will have priority access to," President Wu hesitated, trying to persuade her without giving up.

Rather than letting her go and risk exposure, it’s better to keep a tight grip on her, so she wouldn’t dare expose anything.

Qin Yun couldn’t help but laugh at how naive it was.

At this point, he was still asking if the company treated her poorly?

What on earth gave him the nerve to ask such a question?

"Perhaps it’s because your company’s values don’t align with mine? If you’re worried about photos being exposed after the termination, you can rest assured. Since I dared to bring a lawyer, with both a lawyer and recordings as evidence, I certainly have no intention of spending the rest of my life behind bars, so I won’t do anything so foolish."

President Wu suddenly remembered that the lawyer had just mentioned he was recording. In his anger earlier, he hadn’t paid attention, and now his face turned grim, "Who allowed you to record without permission?"

"Don’t worry, as soon as we reach a consensus, the recordings will also be deleted," Qin Yun, having anticipated this, said immediately.

"So you’re determined to terminate the contract with the company?" President Wu calmed down, looking at Qin Yun with sharp and sinister eyes.

"You must be joking; this is an amicable termination. I will have an amicable termination with you," Qin Yun corrected his wording.

"Found a new place yet? Planning to go to Tengfei or Hengtian? Or Bo Yang?" President Wu casually unbuttoned his cuff, rolled up his sleeve, and leisurely picked up the teacup, sipping it, as if chatting with an old friend.

He casually picked up the business card that Lawyer Ji had just placed on the table.

"I haven’t made any plans yet, maybe I’ll start my own studio," Qin Yun chuckled lightly, suppressing the emotions in her eyes.

Upon recognizing the words on it, President Wu’s heart skipped a beat, and he quickly asked, "Pei Group? You’re a lawyer for Pei Group?"

"Yes, I am a legal consultant for Pei Group, Ji Ming. My visit to your company is to assist Miss Qin in terminating the contract. Before the termination goes smoothly, if you have any questions, you can contact me. If you don’t want to contact me, you can also contact Pei Group’s Legal Affairs Department. We are at Miss Qin’s service throughout the process," Ji Ming said calmly, pushing up his glasses.

Not caring at all about what he said, President Wu’s hand trembled slightly as he held the business card.

After all, not even his wife dared to oppose Pei Group, and would give them a respectful nod upon seeing them.

Let alone his small company.

The legal team of Pei Group is renowned for never losing.

To this day, the legal team of Pei Group hasn’t lost a case when involved.

When he thought about all the messy issues in his company, and those flawed contracts that Qin Yun just left on the table, his heart sank.

"This small matter of contract termination surely doesn’t require troubling Pei Group’s lawyers. I’ll have someone draft the termination contract right away," President Wu lost all his earlier momentum upon hearing that the entire Pei Group’s legal team was at Qin Yun’s service.

If he had known earlier that she was from Pei Group, he would never have been so arrogant. He knows exactly what those contracts are like.

"No need; I have already prepared the termination contract. President Wu just needs to sign it," Ji Ming took three copies of the contract from his briefcase and placed them in front of President Wu.

President Wu’s face stiffened; he didn’t expect such thorough preparation from the other side. He could only shift his gaze to Qin Yun, "Xiao Qin, you too, for such a small thing, you could have just told me. No need to trouble Lawyer Ji."

President Wu’s attitude towards Qin Yun changed quickly from ’Qin Yun’ to ’Xiao Qin.’

Qin Yun took out her phone and pretended to respond to a message, ignoring him.

In fact, she was messaging Pei Yan.

Qin Yun: [Had I known your lawyer was this useful, I would have saved my words from the start. He could have shut this fat fool up in one sentence.]

"It’s just contract termination; you’re making it a big deal," President Wu looked at the paper, gritted his teeth, and signed his name.

Now his face and dignity were completely lost before Pei Group!

Pei Yan: [Remember to pay.]

Qin Yun: [Have you forgotten? We’ve registered our marriage! Even if I give you money, it ends up being mine.]

Pei Yan: [...]

Messing with Pei Yan put Qin Yun in a much better mood. Smiling, she put down her phone. Seeing that President Wu had signed, her mood improved even further.

Taking advantage of the moment when President Wu fetched the seal, Qin Yun picked up the already signed termination contract, signed her name, and pressed her fingerprint.

President Wu hesitated for a moment, but finally stamped it with an unpleasant expression.

Ji Ming took the contract, ensuring both parties had signed and stamped them, and then gave one copy to President Wu, one to Qin Yun, and kept one for himself to report back.

Qin Yun looked at the termination contract in her hand, a genuine, radiant smile appeared on her face.

From this moment on! She was free!

With an extremely good mood, Qin Yun put the termination contract into her bag and walked towards the door. As she turned her back, she waved and said, "Well, President Wu, we shall meet no more."

President Wu quickly called out from behind, "The termination contract is signed, but what about the photos!! And the recording!"

"Rest assured, I’ll send them all to you shortly," Qin Yun said, and left without turning back.

Unaware, President Wu looked like he had lost his soul, slumping in his chair after she left.

However, even if Qin Yun had noticed, she would probably think he deserved it.

As soon as they entered the elevator, Qin Yun couldn’t help but complain, "Had I known Pei Group was so effective, I would have revealed your identity right away. Yet he was stupid enough to ignore the business card. Acting all high and mighty, making me waste my breath. Although I said the trump card should be used last, who would have thought the trump wasn’t just a trump, it was a bomb! If I had known he was this cowardly, I wouldn’t have needed to overwhelm him with so much evidence."

Just now in the elevator, Qin Yun discussed with Ji Ming that she would first throw out the evidence to intimidate him, and then Ji Ming would step in with legal knowledge for a one-two punch.

"Without your prior evidence, he might not have bought it," Ji Ming sincerely said, adjusting his glasses.

After all, only when the truth is laid before him does he feel guilty, coupled with Pei Group’s lawyers’ undefeated reputation, achieving such quick results was possible.

"Hmm, that’s true," Qin Yun thought, agreeing to some extent.

If she had not stunned President Wu, the situation could very well still be in a deadlock, with him pretending to act foolish.

Qin Yun considered exchanging views. If they didn’t have evidence initially, and only sent Ji Ming in, the other party probably wouldn’t have been so agreeable and might have acted polite but certainly wouldn’t have surrendered so quickly.

Although the process wasn’t exactly as planned, it generally followed the course she desired.

In the end, they did manage to intimidate him, but the thing that ultimately unsettled President Wu was the reputation of Pei Group.
