Chapter 194: No Need for a Lawyer
Liu Manhong looked at Xia Xibei, laughing and clapping her hands in praise. “Okay! That’s ambitious! I support you!”
She looked at Pan Yan, who was overjoyed yet at a loss for words, saying with a grin, “This is really a good deal for you.”
With Xia Xibei’s qualifications, it would be easy for her to get into any company!
She turned her head and told Xia Xibei, “Don’t worry! With me here, that mistress wouldn’t dare do anything to you.”
To be honest, she had quite a bit of dirt on Bai Meixue.
It was just that Bai Meixue hadn’t tried to create any trouble over the last few years, so she hadn’t done anything in return.
But if she was provoked, she would show no mercy.
Looking at Liu Manhong’s regal demeanor, Pan Yan couldn’t help but wipe away some sweat.
As soon as this woman appeared, her aura seemed different.
He could tell that she deliberately wanted to put pressure on him.
But he really didn’t feel confident.
After all, it was him begging Xia Xibei to sign, not the other way around.
“Don’t worry, our company is very fair and won’t mess around,” he explained quickly.
“Hah!”
Liu Manhong pursed her mouth, seemingly noncommittal.
Was any company really ethical? Especially entertainment companies, who had so many tricks up their sleeves.
However, Liu Manhong did not force Xia Xibei to refuse. After all, this was Xia Xibei’s own decision.
Although Xia Xibei was not yet an adult, her behavior rea.s.sured Liu Manhong that all would be ok.
Additionally, Liu Manhong felt that the reason Xia Xibei wanted to enter this company was not a simple one.
The best she could do for Xia Xibei was to fight those evil people.
If she couldn’t fend them off, she could always go to Qiao Yanjue.
Now that he was her big brother, he couldn’t hide behind anyone.
“I will sign with you, but we must be clear on the contract,” Xia Xibei informed Pan Yan.
Pan Yan nodded and took out the contract he had brought. “See if there is anything inappropriate. We can always talk more.”
Xia Xibei took the contract and began to read it, word for word.
Liu Manhong took a look at it and couldn’t help but frown. This kind of thing made her dizzy.
“Why don’t I get a lawyer to take a look at it?” Professional knowledge could only be provided by professionals, after all.
Liu Manhong had so many companies, but she couldn’t manage them all by herself, so she had a team to aid her. Lawyers were indispensable members of that team.
“No, I can do it myself,” Xia Xibei smiled and shook her head.
Liu Manhong surrendered in resignation at her words. “If you don’t understand, you can always ask a lawyer.”
Xia Xibei nodded, then kept reading.
Pan Yan was a little nervous when he heard that they could be looking for a lawyer.
It wasn’t that the contract was fishy, but the presence of lawyers generally meant there were faults to be found.
Since Xia Xibei chose to read the contract by herself, he allowed himself to relax.
However, he realized that he had relaxed too soon.
There was no lawyer here, yet Xia Xibei’s thoughts and a.n.a.lysis were as good as that of a lawyer!
“Look at this one,” Xia Xibei said, pointing to one of the terms. “It just states my responsibilities, but it doesn’t say what you should do.”
“And look at this one. The time seems to be a bit too long.”
“I don’t think this term is very appropriate. This word is ambiguous. If there are any problems in the future, won’t we have to argue again?”
“This one...”
“Here...”
“And this...”
As Xia Xibei continued to comment on the contract, Pan Yan’s expression began to gradually stiffen.
Meanwhile, Liu Manhong laughed aloud on the side.
No wonder Xia Xibei didn’t think a lawyer was necessary; she herself could match the talent of a professional lawyer!
