Chapter 209: Man and Man, Hand-in-Hand

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

It was a known fact that Pei Zhen came from a strong family background, but the big boss didn’t realize that he had government officials in the family. The moment he heard ‘prosecutor’s office’ and ‘research scholar’, he quickly apologized for fear of consequences of crossing those people.

“I apologize!” General Manager Liu was on the verge of clutching his face in tears. “I didn’t mind my words, and I was uncouth. I’m really sorry!”

“What about Xiao Nian and Miss Chen?” Pei Zhen asked with an icy expression.

“I’m sorry.” General Manager Liu had turned pale. “It was just a slip of the tongue.”

Huh.

A slip of the tongue.

If it weren’t for the worry that things would be even more difficult for Xiao Nian and Miss Chen in the future, Pei Zhen would have forced a sincere apology out of the man.

He was too egoistic and thought that everyone was such a pushover.

However, Pei Zhen couldn’t be bothered to educate the big boss since he was prepared to terminate his contract with the agency. He signed on the agreement and understood that he was to pay up the penalty then and there.

Pei Zhen made a call to the bank staff. “You can send the money over now.”

The bank staff was most supportive. “Sure!”

Without a need for a check or transaction, the 80 million dollars was loaded onto a truck and sent over to Pei Zhen.

The money was heavily guarded and accompanied by armed police all the way. It was quite frightening to see the police armed with rifles standing guard outside the agency entrance.

It was nothing short of cold, hard cash.

It was quite a sight to see the safe boxes being hauled out of the truck one by one. Even more surprising was that when the safe boxes opened, one-dollar notes filled them!

The almost-bald General Manager Liu was livid. “… Pei Zhen, you… you… you…”

Crap!

It was definitely intentional!

Pei Zhen stuck one hand into his pocket, smiling such that his peach blossom eyes were like two half-moons. “Does the agreement also state that I may not pay in one-dollar bills?”

General Manager Liu was flabbergasted. Indeed, the agreement made no mention of such.

“Please verify the amount quickly.” The bank staff gave a curt smile. “After all, use of the safe boxes incurs a cost. It’s a thousand dollars a day each.”

“You! You!” General Manager was angry beyond words. “That’s daylight robbery!”

“You’re probably unaware.” The bank staff was still smiling politely. “These safe boxes are imported; they are made using the latest technology. If General Manager Liu feels that it’s not worth it, then you may also purchase them. They are not that expensive. Just two to three thousand dollars each.

General Manager Liu’s face had turned a deep red.

He almost fainted from anger.

He suddenly recalled, Pei Zhen was previously the outstanding student representative of the Metropolitan University Law School!

Although a little regretful, it was still a relief for Pei Zhen to have settled the matter cleanly.

He was a disorganized person with a casual approach towards things.

Normally he’d just let things slide no matter how the company squeezed him. They were a bottom-line driven business, after all.

However, when the big boss tried so hard to squeeze him before letting him go, he felt compelled to retaliate.

There was no other reason for Pei Zhen to stay after having taught the man a lesson and settled the contract matter.

But as he took a step to leave, Xiao Nian followed close behind.

Pei Zhen turned to look at him.

“Son, Daddy is no longer contracted to the agency,” Pei Zhen said. In other words, they no longer had an artiste-manager relationship.

“Yes, I know,” Xiao Nian replied.

“So…, are you looking to give a treat and buy your Daddy dinner, over which we can reminisce the glorious days of the past?”

Xiao Nian sniggered. “Daddy, listen to what you’re saying. How should I be the one buying a treat? Of course, you’re buying.”

“Well… I’m the one who’s jobless now.” Pei Zhen reminded the man.

“Oh, I’m jobless too. I’ve resigned,” said Xiao Nian.

Pei Zhen paused in surprise, feeling a little choked. “Nian Nian, you…”

Xiao Nian took a step forward and delivered a touching line, saying, “From now on, we’re man and man, hand-in-hand.”

“I’m sorry, but I’m a man with another man.”

Damn it, thought Xiao Nian. A big deal now that he’s no longer single!
