Chapter 324: Compensation

“En?” Qi Jun was surprised, “Just like that . ”

“She doesn’t want me to be too cruel . ” Song Mian recalled how she said she was scared of that look while they were in the car yesterday .

“Just give her a small punishment; that will stop her from going further . Let them make enemies out of Eric . ” Song Mian put down the glass of water .

Qi Jun looked at him, taking a piece of a clean towel and went out to wipe away the sweat of Yun Xiangxiang, who had stopped running .

“The man of steel always yields to his Lois Lane…” Qi Jun sighed and looked at Li Xiangling’s room, which was opposite where he stood .

He wondered when he would have the chance to show his love .

He thought of how Li Xiangling ignored his pursuits and just took him as a stranger whom she only knew the name of .

Qi Jun felt powerless . He never thought the day would come where he — Young Master Qi — would fail .

“CX called and said they want to ask you for dinner as a sign of apology . ” He Wei came over with a phone in his hand .

Yun Xiangxiang looked at Song Mian . “Should I go?”

CX was Eric’s compensation for her; she didn’t expect to get abducted when she was on the way to its ad shoot .

They were victims of Faye’s plan this time . Eric got CX’s endorsement for Yun Xiangxiang by exchanging some terms .

Eric’s daughter bought out their crew to help her steal Yun Xiangxiang’s emergency phone, and she even used their company’s name to harm Yun Xiangxiang .

This was their management’s fault, but all kinds of people existed in a company . Just because they were responsible didn’t mean they were unforgivable .

Not to mention she had already signed the contract . Yes, she could use this as an excuse to void the contract, but she had already announced it to her fans .

If she suddenly stopped endorsing CX, she would have to explain it to her fans . She couldn’t tell them the truth, but she didn’t want to lie either .

“Let’s go and see how they are going to settle this . I’ll go with you . ” Song Mian knew Yun Xiangxiang didn’t want to void the contract either .

It wasn’t about money; Yun Xiangxiang would be the one who gets the compensation . They also had evidence of CX’s shady maneuvers .

Yun Xiangxiang didn’t want to tell the public why she canceled the contract since it would attract unwanted attention to the issue .

“Let’s go and take a look, Brother Wei . ” She wanted to work amicably with CX if she could .

With He Wei and Song Mian there, Ai Li and Song Qian stayed behind . Song Meng wanted to see how CX looked like, but she had to be by the injured Li Xiangling’s side .

They would be going back in a few days, so she wanted to make a bit more money when they still had the time .

CX was sincere in their apologies, as the headquarter’s CFO was the one who welcomed Yun Xiangxiang . He was a middle-aged French Chinese in a formal suit . The man didn’t even have a strand of gray hair, so anyone would believe it if he said he was thirty-something .

“I am Chen Bin . ” Chen Bin talked in Mandarin, presumably as an attempt to draw them closer .

“Hello, Mr . Chen . ” He Wei shook hands with him first .

Yun Xiangxiang extended her hand politely . “Hello . ”

Chen Bin saw Song Mian, but he didn’t know who Song Mian was . “This is…”

“My boyfriend . ” Yun Xiangxiang introduced, “He’s a Song . ”

Chen Bin’s gaze sharpened for a moment . As one of the top decision-makers in the company, he knew why this happened .

Even they didn’t expect a no-name actress like Yun Xiangxiang to have such a strong backer .

They didn’t know what kind of existence Yun Xiangxiang’s boyfriend was . All they knew was that even the Cardicra Family was scared of him .

“Hello, Mr . Song . It’s a pleasure meeting you . ” Chen Bin wasn’t enthusiastic, but he was still polite .

Song Mian shook hands with him, and Chen Bin showed them to their seats .

“Chinese cuisine here is magnificent . I think you must be missing the taste of home after being here so long, right?” A waiter served their dishes once Chen Bin sat down, and Chen Bin started talking to Yun Xiangxiang easily .

She had to admit that Chen Bin was correct . After France’s novelty wore off, she did miss the taste of Chinese cuisine .

Her friends could still taste Chinese cuisine, as they were in the winery . On the other hand, she only had French food to eat since she had to go around with Milles for filming .

“Thank you, Mr . Chen . I do miss it,” said Yun Xiangxiang sincerely .

“Thank you, Mr . Chen . ” He Wei nodded . “Since Mr . Chen is quite sincere, I’ll cut to the chase . ”

Chen Bin nodded and took a document from his secretary before handing it to He Wei . “We deeply regret the harm that befell Miss Yun Xiangxiang during her collaboration with us due to our employees’ betrayal of their work ethics . ”

“This is negligence on our part, and we know we can’t put the blame on anyone else . But please, Mr . He, Mr . Song, Miss Yun, please believe that the top management does not know about this . We would never work with those who wish to harm Miss Yun even if it’s profitable . ”

Chen Bin didn’t say much, but he was earnest; at least Yun Xiangxiang could feel it . He Wei scanned through the document .

He pointed out the key points to Yun Xiangxiang so she wouldn’t waste her time . CX was offering a lot in terms of compensation .

They changed the endorsement region from China to Asia; the contract went from two years to four, and the pay increased by ten percent .

This was an excellent compensation for the harm Yun Xiangxiang had received because of their employee . They were sincere in wanting to resolve this dispute .

He Wei gave her a questioning look . He thought it was fine, but since CX made the first offer, he felt they could still ask for more .

Yun Xiangxiang knew He Wei was asking her to bargain, but she disliked bargaining .

She thought it was enough, and it was fine as long as CX was sincere . She smiled and nodded at He Wei .

Chen Bin observed their interaction, and he was already thinking of the terms they would propose, and how he should bargain .

He was surprised that Yun Xiangxiang would nod, and He Wei closed the document . “We accept . ”

That unhesitant decision made even an experienced business exec like Chen Bin raise his eyebrows, but he reacted accordingly .

He smiled as he toasted He Wei and Yun Xiangxiang . “Here’s to a great collaboration . ”

Yun Xiangxiang and He Wei raised their glasses and toasted him . “To a great collaboration . ”

Yun Xiangxiang told him, “Mr . Chen, I need to be in China by the twentieth for another film, so I hope you can quickly settle the ad shoot . ”

“Alright, I guarantee that you can go back in a week, Miss Yun . ” This was nothing, so Chen Bin nodded .

They enjoyed the food after the business talk was over . It was authentic Chinese cuisine, but it tasted different because of the ingredients .

It was a new experience . Chen Bin didn’t talk about business; instead, he spoke about China . He didn’t try to speak with Song Mian either, so they had a friendly chat .

Chen Bin sent them into the car and sent them off personally .

“Do you want to know if they are here as mediators?”
