章 27: Termination of Contract
編集者: EndlessFantasy Translation
Yu Ge's savings over the years were enough to run a small-scale studio. With Xia Ran in charge, the operation seemed to be running smoothly.
The only thing that was more difficult was to terminate the contract.
Xia Ran said to Yu Ge, "Glory World used to be the top entertainment company in the industry. I'm just afraid that they'll take the opportunity to extort us." Yu Ge had thought about it before, so she shared her worries with Xia Tan, "Do you know any more reliable lawyers in or outside the industry?" There would definitely be disputes if she terminated the contract, so it was inevitable that she would have to hire a lawyer.
Xia Ran had worked in the industry for so long, so she naturally had a lot of connections. However, she did not expect that once Yu Ge mentioned the lawyer, Xia Ran's side immediately quieted down.
Yu Ge noticed that something was amiss and asked Xia Ran, "What's wrong?"
Xia Ran replied, "I haven't been able to contact any good lawyers for the time being."
Yu Ge suddenly felt a little guilty. Whether it was the future development of the work, the termination of the contract, or even her work at the studio, she could be considered to have left everything to her own devices. She only had to pay for these things, and the rest was all done by Xia Ran. These days, other than filming, she had been holding a new song creation press conference. She did not have the time to think about the work at the studio. It was really inappropriate for her to do such a thing to her manager.
Yu Ge made a prompt decision and said to Xia Ran, "Ran, the studio is already up and running. There's no hurry to terminate the contract. You should take a few days off first! I'll take care of the rest."
As a typical workaholic, Xia Ran actually agreed immediately. "Okay." It really showed how tired she had been for all of this.
Although Ji Meng was the female general antagonist in, she actually did not have many scenes. After discussing with the director, Yu Ge still had to film in the morning and work in the studio in the afternoon.
Only when she took over did Yu Ge realize how much pressure Xia Ran was under. Yu Ge could basically handle all the trivial matters in the studio, but finding a lawyer was the only thing that worried Yu Ge.
"What's wrong?" At the dining table, Yu Ge sighed for the third time. Mo Jue could not help but ask her.
After being stuck in the hotel, Yu Ge was already traumatized. In addition to Mo Jue's repeated obstructions, Yu Ge still stayed at Mo Jue's house temporarily during the filming process.
Yu Ge looked at the incomparably handsome Mo Jue and remembered that this was the real CEO worth billions. Her eyes sparkled as she asked him, "CEO Mo, do you have a good lawyer here who you can recommend?"
Mo Jue looked at Yu Ge strangely and said to Yu Ge, "Yes, I'll ask around."
That night, Mo Jue told Yu Ge that he had already contacted the lawyer. Yu Ge was on the set and could not go in person, so she could only entrust Xia Ran with the termination of the contract.
It was probably because the lawyer that Mo Jue found was really awesome. It only took him one day to settle all the termination matters.
After the termination of the contract was successful, Yu Ge and Xia Ran treated the lawyer to a meal to express their gratitude. When they met Xia Ran at the restaurant, Yu Ge found out that the lawyer that Mo Jue found was his younger brother, Mo Jin.
Yu Ge could not help but feel curious. "Between you and Mo Jin..."
Xia Ran took a sip of water and said nonchalantly, "Just an ex."
Yu Ge's intuition told him that it was not that simple.
As expected, Mo Jin's expression changed immediately when he saw the table full of spicy food.
Xia Ran acted as if she did not see it and clinked glasses with Mo Jin with a smile. "Lawyer Mo, thank you for your help. Do these dishes taste good?"
Mo Jin gritted his teeth as he stared at Xia Ran and said, "I can't eat spicy food."
Xia Ran came to a sudden realization. "Oh! I'm sorry, I wasn't sure about your taste!"
Mo Jin was already on Xia Ran's side. He had to finish this meal no matter what. After forcing himself to finish the meal, Mo Jin's face turned pale. Yu Ge and Xia Ran watched as they had to drive Mo Jin to the hospital.
