Su Wanru had long anticipated this day, so she spoke the words she had rehearsed several times to Liu Yifeng.
"Do you think I'll still believe what you say? Tongtong asks me almost every time he gets out of school, why isn't his aunt picking him up anymore? Is it because you were angry about that investigation of the surveillance footage? Do you know that your inexplicable behavior hurts a child?"
Seeing that no matter what he said, she remained unmoved, Liu Yifeng had no choice but to bring up Tongtong.
"Please apologize to Tongtong for me, but it's really not his fault. I'm just too busy with work." Su Wanru kept her head down, not daring to meet Liu Yifeng's eyes.
She was afraid her gaze would betray her, ruining the week-long effort she had put in.
"That reason is not convincing at all. Is it because of Yun Duo'er? Did she approach you again?" Seeing Su Wanru's evasiveness towards Tongtong, Liu Yifeng suspected she was being pressured.
After Liu Yifeng finished speaking, Su Wanru denied it, shaking her head repeatedly. The more anxious she seemed to refuse, the more suspicious it made him.
"I see. So it is her issue. I will handle this. Don't feel guilty towards her. Even if you want to compensate her, she will think you have ill intentions."
Liu Yifeng turned and left. He had come today to confirm his suspicions because he knew Su Wanru would never miss picking up Tongtong.
Once or twice, he could understand, but she had never missed it, even in heavy rain. Thus, he suspected it had something to do with Yun Duo'er. Seeing Su Wanru's demeanor today confirmed his suspicions.
Upon returning to the company, he sent Yun Duo'er a message. He didn't expect a reply, but he was determined to see her today.
As Liu Yifeng had expected, she never replied. When it was time to get off work, Liu Yifeng had Lu Fei drive him directly to Yun Duo'er's apartment.
"Wait for me here." The car was discreet, driving directly into the parking lot, so it shouldn't be photographed by paparazzi outside.
Arriving upstairs, Yun Duo'er had indeed already opened the door and was waiting for him, seemingly knowing exactly when he would arrive.
As expected, she was not alone in her home; her agent, Sister Jin, was also present.
"Speak. What do you want?" With such a condescending attitude, it was a relief that Tongtong hadn't inherited any of it.
"What I want to say is very simple. Tongtong is my son now. Who he wants to see and who can see him are my decisions. I don't know where you got the courage to tell Wanru not to see Tongtong anymore. She's doing a better job than you are. Your warning is just a self-inflicted annoyance."
Liu Yifeng's expression was stony, and he appeared even colder, immediately overpowering Yun Duo'er's aura.
"You..."
Yun Duo'er, furious, was about to retort when Sister Jin placed a hand on her shoulder.
"Yes, Mr. Liu, I think you might have misunderstood. Our Duo'er wouldn't say such a thing. Even if she did, it was only because she hoped his aunt would treat Tongtong well. So, I don't know the purpose of your visit today, but we really didn't do anything like that."
Sister Jin looked at Liu Yifeng with a half-smile. Her words were indeed more mature than Yun Duo'er's.
"Only you know whether you did it or not. I've said what I needed to say." Liu Yifeng didn't want to stay in this place for another second. If it weren't for Tongtong, he wouldn't have come to see her.
Just as Liu Yifeng was about to leave, Sister Jin blocked his path.
"Since Mr. Liu is already here, why not stay a bit longer? I do have something I need to discuss with you." He saw the cunning glint in Sister Jin's eyes at a glance.
This was a notorious agent. Now that she had encountered a commercial opportunity, she wouldn't let it go easily.
"Hmph, so that's what you were waiting for. The initial setup was all so I'd come looking for you?" The disgust and sarcasm in his eyes were evident. Since they wanted to negotiate, he would.
He was also curious about what kind of conditions could have led them to set up such a complex trap.
"It's very simple. We need hype right now, and your popularity is the highest. Therefore, I hope we can collaborate to complete the final recording of the 'Super Juicy Program' together."
Sister Jin was straightforward and revealed her intentions immediately.
Liu Yifeng found her quite persistent. After such a long time, she was still thinking about this big pie. It seemed Yun Duo'er hadn't been doing too well lately.
"I must say, your calculations are quite profound. You're still concerned about this program now? It seems you've been quite idle lately? Are you just waiting for me?"
Liu Yifeng's mockery was clear. He disdained women like her, who pretended to be famous yet were actually nothing.
"Liu Yifeng, I'm telling you, it's an honor for me to record with you. Who do you think I am, someone anyone can look down on?"
Yun Duo'er couldn't stand it anymore. Liu Yifeng's words were too harsh, and she stepped in front of Sister Jin.
"Oh? Is that so? Then, if that's the case, please don't bother me or anyone around me again. Deciding who my son sees is my prerogative, not yours!"
Liu Yifeng slowly stood up and walked to Yun Duo'er's side. The disdain in his eyes was obvious, leaving Yun Duo'er speechless.
"Mr. Liu, please don't rush. Duo'er said that because your words were too harsh. So please don't mind her. As long as you agree to cooperate with us, it will be very beneficial for your company. It's like getting a free endorsement, a win-win situation, isn't it?"
Sister Jin pulled Yun Duo'er aside and anxiously looked at Liu Yifeng. It was clear that he was her last hope.
"Hmph, do you think I need to hire someone who currently has no work as an endorser?" Liu Yifeng found it quite amusing.
"If you agree, I guarantee Yun Duo'er will not cause trouble for you anymore, and she will even bring you benefits."
Sister Jin was making her final struggle, her eyes filled with great anticipation.
"I'm really sorry. Do you think I'm so desperate for partners? Let me warn you again: if you cause any more trouble, don't blame me for ensuring you can never find work again!"
Finally, he walked past Sister Jin to Yun Duo'er's side, looked at her with extreme disgust, and gave his final warning.
