Chapter 2637 - 2641: What Right Does He Have to Talk Fairness with Her?

Chapter 2637: Chapter 2641: What Right Does He Have to Talk Fairness with Her?

After speaking, he looked like a deflated balloon, his tense body suddenly going limp.

He lowered his head deeply, his body trembling, as a drop of cold sweat slid down the side of his forehead.

Ye Xingbei chuckled, "May I ask why?"

"Of course..." Lou Ning lowered his head, saying with difficulty, "Boss... I’m sorry... I let you down... I... the girl who came with me, her name is Jee Zhenyu, she is the daughter of the president of Jee’s Entertainment Company... I... I... I’m in love with her..."

Lou Ning bowed his head even lower, shamefacedly, "Boss... I’m sorry... I know what I’m doing is wrong, but I can’t control myself... I love her, I really love her..."

He suddenly looked up at Ye Xingbei: "Boss, since my mother died, I’ve been all alone, without family, drifting about, and I felt so lonely... After meeting Zhenyu, I felt the sense of having a home, of having family again..."

"Boss, I want to marry her... but her dad said if I want to marry her, I must first terminate the contract with your studio and become a free man, so..."

He looked at Ye Xingbei, his eyes filled with both expectation and guilt, "I’m sorry boss, I know what I’m doing is too much, but I really love Zhenyu, I can’t lose her... Boss, I know you are a good person, can I beg you to let me terminate the contract?"

"It’s not that contract termination is impossible," Ye Xingbei smiled lightly, "we signed a contract at the beginning, in black and white, and it’s not impossible to terminate it, as long as you can afford the contract termination fee, we can annul it at any time..."

Lou Ning was stunned: "I... I can’t afford it..."

The contract stated that the termination fee was as high as ten billion.

That was an amount he could absolutely never afford.

Ye Xingbei looked at him, the corners of her lips slightly lifted: "Lou Ning, since you can’t afford the termination fee, on what basis are you negotiating with me for a contract termination?"

Lou Ning stared at her blankly: "Boss, you are a good person..."

Ye Xingbei laughed: "So do good people deserve to be taken advantage of?"

Lou Ning opened his mouth, saying with difficulty: "But... but a termination fee of ten billion was unreasonable from the start..."

Upon hearing that, Ye Xingbei was completely disappointed in him.

Originally, she feared Lou Ning might have been deceived by Jee Zhenyu, and she intended to have a heartfelt talk with Lou Ning, to analyze the situation for him.

But now, she felt it was unnecessary.

Lou Ning actually wanted to discuss fairness with her.

What right did he have to discuss fairness with her?

At the beginning, when he was in dire straits and had nothing, why didn’t he talk about fairness with her?

If not for her and Gu Junzhu, who knows what kind of quagmire he’d be stuck in now, he certainly wouldn’t have the brilliance he has today, what right does he have to talk about fairness with her?

Ye Xingbei chuckled, "Indeed, the contract is unfair, so let’s discuss a more fair termination price, how much are you prepared to offer?"

People like Lou Ning who signed a fifty-year contract are all those who have been greatly favored by her and Gu Junzhu.

Actually, what binds Lou Ning and the others has never been the contract, but their conscience.

Now, Lou Ning’s conscience was gone.

Forcing Lou Ning to stay through a fifty-year contract would only leave him as an enemy or a waste.

Lou Ning fell in love with Jee Zhenyu, forcing him to stay would mean he wouldn’t work diligently for her in the future, he would only resent her, hate her, and turn her studio upside down.

If that’s the case, they might as well part on good terms.
