Substitute new wife: Mr. Pei, are you getting divorced today?

Chapter 225 Is it too much to treat Cheng Xi?

"Mr. Pei, why...why do you drink so much?"

Yang Kai mustered up the courage to ask. He was really curious. He had been with Mr. Pei for so long, and even if Pei Yanzhou was socializing or having a party with Lu Chongli and the others, he would never drink like this.

Even Mr. Pei despises those who are drunk, thinking that it delays things too much. Being drunk too much will make people stupid and delay decision-making at work.

It is unbelievable that such a Mr. Pei would do this to himself.

Pei Yanzhou sat up, with a sullen face and said nothing.

Yang Kai felt a lot of pressure, "How about you wash your face and have some breakfast? By the way, Mr. Pei, do you want to have dinner with Mr. Yao at noon?"

"Do you think I'm very busy?" Pei Yanzhou glanced at him coldly, "Go back to the company after breakfast. I'm very busy."

After saying that, he got up and went to the bathroom.

Yang Kai: "..."

I know you are very busy, but you came here to invest in film and television for no apparent reason during your busy schedule.

In fact, during this trip, Yang Kai felt speechless.

He thought of Cheng Xi and that Pei Yanzhou seemed to have gone out last night...

At this time, Yang Kai's phone rang. It was Mu Xuetong.

Seeing this call, Yang Kai was helpless and could only answer it in a lowered voice.

"Assistant Yang, is brother Yan Zhou still angry?" Mu Xuetong asked in a low voice.

Yang Kai sighed and lowered his voice and said, "I don't know. Anyway, Mr. Pei is in a bad mood today."

"Then...can I come and see brother Yan Zhou? I'll apologize to him..."

"No need, Mr. Pei is at the film and television base today."

Mu Xuetong was surprised, "Why did brother Yan Zhou go there? Is it to deal with my affairs?"

"Well, the investors in the crew of "Dreams" withdrew their capital, and Producer Cao asked Mr. Pei for investment."

"Did brother Yan Zhou invest?" Mu Xuetong asked nervously, "How much did you invest?"

"One hundred and fifty million." Yang Kai didn't hide it. Mu Xuetong had been on that crew anyway, so he would know it sooner or later.

"So many." Mu Xuetong's eyes turned red.

1.5 billion. She has never seen so much money in her life. It would be great if it were all given to her, but it's a pity...

However, brother Yan Zhou was willing to pay so much money in order to settle the trouble she made, which shows that brother Yan Zhou really cares about her and cares about her.

"Assistant Yang, brother Yan Zhou is not answering my calls now. Please help me tell him that I will always remember what he did for me. I will work down to earth in the future and will not let him down again," Mu Xuetong said. .

"Okay, I will convey it." Yang Kai responded. He also knew that the Mu family was very important to Mr. Pei.

Although, as an assistant, he really doesn't like Mu Xuetong.

She is also a student at Sioux City University. Miss Cheng is engaged in design honestly. Miss Mu obviously has good resources thanks to Mr. Pei, but she is restless and wants to steal other people's manuscripts and commit plagiarism.

Why do you dare to do this? Isn't it because of Mr. Pei?

For this Miss Mu, Mr. Pei even spent 1.5 billion.

How many people can't earn so much money in their lifetimes?

And to be honest, "Secret Fragrance and Floating Dreams" cost several hundred million, and he had read the script and was not optimistic that it would be able to make back the money. He would be considered lucky if he didn't lose money.

At this time, Pei Yanzhou came out after washing.

Yang Kai conveyed what Mu Xuetong said.

After hearing this, Pei Yanzhou leaned back and blocked the light in his eyes with his long eyelashes, "Yang Kai, tell me, am I going too far towards Cheng Xi by protecting Xuetong this time?"

Yang Kai's heart skipped a beat and he hesitated before saying, "You regard Miss Xuetong as your sister and family member. Anyone will try their best to protect their family. This is normal."

"I'm asking you whether I went too far towards Cheng Xi this time." Pei Yanzhou had a stern look on his face. That's not what he wanted to hear.

Yang Kai's scalp was numb. He felt that being an assistant was very tiring. He was afraid of being fired if he told the truth. If he didn't tell the truth, his boss would be dissatisfied. "Looking at it from Cheng Xi's point of view, what you did... was a bit too much. After all, in her eyes, Here, Miss Xuetong was the one who copied her hard-earned design. She finally called the police, but when she came to the police station, she felt the oppression of your rights. If it were me, I might be angry, unconvinced, and unwilling... "

Halfway through, Yang Kai observed Pei Yanzhou's expression and saw that he was not miraculous, but rather distracted, and he was relieved.

So he continued: "But it's not that you are unwilling to make up for it. At least you offered to invest 50 million to help Miss Cheng, but she refused. How can I put it? You actually have a good heart and know what Miss Xuetong did. No, it’s just that sometimes you don’t speak very well, so it’s easy for people to misunderstand you.”

"I don't speak well?" Pei Yanzhou asked in a cold voice.

"..."

Yang Kai was speechless.

Don't you have any self-awareness about this matter?

"You are nice to others, but what you said to Miss Cheng is really not nice." Yang Kai said euphemistically, "I can understand that, after all, Miss Cheng lied to you about the substitute marriage, but after the divorce, the two parties were settled. You don’t have to always target her, either.”

"Did I target her?" Pei Yanzhou narrowed his eyes.

"..."

Isn't it obvious enough?

Yang Kai felt tired, "I wasn't always with you when you were getting along with Miss Cheng, and I don't know some things. I can only say that when you went to inspect the film and television base at noon today, you met Miss Cheng while she was filming. Although you didn't say too many unpleasant words, anyone with a discerning eye can tell that your words were all about mocking Ms. Cheng for being poor in the crew and mocking Ms. Cheng for being smelly. If it were me, I would definitely be very embarrassed."

That's why Yang Kai doesn't dislike Cheng Xi.

You said she has a hot temper and is impulsive, but sometimes she can be very tolerant.

Regarding Mu Xuetong's incident, she was obviously very angry and aggrieved, but she realized that she was incompetent and endured it.

You say she is tolerant, but when her friends are offended, she is willing to risk everything.

Pei Yanzhou was irritated, "Do you think I want to ridicule her? Who told her to refuse my investment? She would rather become a beggar without money and fall into a smelly ditch. She is clearly doing it herself."

Yang Kai said, "I also heard what lawyer Guan said about the process of handling this matter that day. You first asked lawyer Guan to threaten them. If they wanted to file a lawsuit with you, they would definitely not win. Then you invested 50 million in her crew and started from scratch. You haven't even apologized for this incident, and you haven't even asked Miss Xuetong to admit her mistake in person."

"What Ms. Cheng felt was a kind of arrogance. She had no choice but to bow her head and surrender. Fifty million is very touching, but after calming down, if she accepts an investment of fifty million, it means that anyone can plagiarize her works without restraint. As long as the money is enough, I think people with integrity will refuse."

"Besides, it's not that I refuse your investment. She won't be able to film this web series. She will have to endure some hardship at most. Suffering is a common thing for her."
