Chapter 61: The Restless Li Hanchen
“You!” Yang Tao was instantly agitated. He could sense the employees nearby looking at him strangely, so he covered the mouthpiece before he went to a corner. “Yingying, how could you do that to me? I did so much so that you could go solo! How could you kick me aside now that I have earned you a bright future?”
Ruan Yingying pursed her lips into a smile. She reached her hand out and gestured for the manicurist to add some embellishment before she replied unhurriedly, “How could you say that? You are making it sound as though I forced you to do all those things. I get it that you are trying to carve a career for yourself, but you can’t keep blaming me for your mistakes, right? Even if you want to accuse me of having a part in your actions, you need evidence.”
Ruan Yingying’s words left Yang Tao speechless. She genuinely did not ask him to do this.
However, Ruan Yingying always acted like a nice girl and would secretly give him a red packet as a show of appreciation for his hard work every time there was an occasion.
He felt that if Ruan Yingying made it big, he would get to ride on the coattails of her success.
He did not see it coming at all. Ruan Yingying was not as docile as she seemed and it was all an act.
The band was disbanded, Mu Sheng was out of the picture, and he was fired. Ruan Yingying kept her hands clean thanks to him and was now able to enjoy all the company’s resources. Since she was the only person who benefited from his actions, she was the real winner here.
Yang Tao sneered, “Well done. I did not see this coming. Even though you acted like a docile dog all this time, you have finally shown your fangs.”
Ruan Yingying laughed in ridicule. “Why don’t you worry about your own business? If you keep calling me, I will report this as harassment.”
The moment Ruan Yingying finished her sentence, she hung up on Yang Tao without waiting for him to reply just like Mr. Li.
Yang Tao gnashed his teeth. A summons from the court appeared on his phone at this very moment. Yang Tao was so angry that he passed out altogether. He was only sent to the hospital when the janitor noticed him there.
Inside the villa, Mu Sheng curled up on the couch as she read an email from Talent Scout Entertainment.
Talent Scout Entertainment wanted to contract with her again. Also, they would guarantee her good projects if she agreed. However, she had to help the company to minimize the damage from Yang Tao’s recent fiasco.
Mu Sheng tapped on the phone and replied to the email.
“I want to see a public apology in three days. Since the talent agency terminated me with no cause, you have effectively breached the contract. You have to compensate me according to the terms laid out in the contract.”
After sending the email, Mu Sheng looked at Li Hanchen sitting beside her. “Okay. We can start acupuncture treatment now.”
“Uh huh.” Li Hanchen took off his shirt automatically.
“How do you feel recently?” asked Mu Sheng as she disinfected the needles.
“I feel a lot better. I just feel a dull ache every now and then.” Li Hanchen’s eyes looked warm as he looked at Mu Sheng’s hands while she prepared the needles.
Although he occasionally did not feel well, it was poles apart from his previous condition.
“Good.” Mu Sheng nodded. She applied acupuncture to Li Hanchen’s belly. Li Hanchen did not even flinch for a second.
Now she only had to apply acupuncture ten times. After applying the needles, Mu Sheng wanted to massage his acupoints to help improve the flow of his meridians.
Before she even touched Li Hanchen, he stopped her.
Mu Sheng glanced at Li Hanchen quizzically.
Li Hanchen put his shirt back on and buttoned it with his long fingers. He raised his head and looked at Mu Sheng deeply. “Your hands are too cold.”
Mu Sheng went speechless as she pulled her hands back. In her past life, countless people were willing to pay huge sums of money to get treated by her, but Li Hanchen was being so picky.
Li Hanchen watched as Mu Sheng went speechless and composed himself so that she could not see his eyes.
Mu Sheng’s hands were not cool. It was so hot that it made all the blood in his veins restless.
