Time and you are my fault

On the second day, Chu Yi's throat was so swollen that it became difficult to even speak.

Originally, Mrs. Qiao asked Chu Yi to rest at home, but suddenly something happened to Xinhe Media.

Xiao He's voice became panicked, "Mr. Chu, we received a court summons, saying that we did not pay the liquidated damages as scheduled, and Hengzong will sue us."

Chu Yi immediately sat up from the bed, "What liquidated damages?"

Her voice was as hoarse as a broken gong, and Xiao He was taken aback, "That's... the liquidated damages for the anchor who terminated the contract with Big Face after you took over Xin He last year. You said that Xin He would pay this money at the end of the year .”

It was only then that Chu Yi remembered that there was indeed such a thing.

The twelve anchors, although they have indeed made a lot of money in the past year, seem to be not enough for the sky-high liquidated damages....

Chuy changed her shoes, took the car keys and left Qiao's house.

"After the accounting between the legal department and the financial department, the liquidated damages and delayed delivery totaled 520 million."

Chu Yi's heart skipped a beat when she heard this number.

Many anchors' contracts are signed for five or ten years, and liquidated damages of tens of millions are very common.

The car drove fast and rushed to the company to start dealing with this matter.

Chu Yi knew very well that Zong Yanxiu was forcing her to bow her head and go back in a different way.

With her seriously ill body, Chu Yi dialed Zong Yanxiu's cell phone number after the meeting.

The phone rang for a long time before it was answered, as if deliberately leaving her alone.

After answering, the sound of the man's breathing came from the receiver, but he didn't speak.

Chu Yi spat out the lozenge in her mouth, "Mr. Zong, are you asking me for property in exchange for the law?"

The man laughed lowly, "I gave you all of my wealth, but it's not just the [-] million."

Chu Yi gritted her teeth, "What on earth do you want! I can pay the money, and I will return the property you gave me without any change. Can you let me go?"

"What do I want, don't you know?" The man's voice paused, and continued, "Since you haven't figured it out, then keep thinking."

After speaking, I immediately hung up the phone.

It was the first time in the past year that he voluntarily hung up on her.

In the conference room, all the executives lowered their heads like quails, each digesting the phrase 'I gave you all my wealth'.

Their boss gave all his wealth to the person on the other end of the phone, needless to say, it must be the young lady.

But the tone of the two... seems wrong.

Wang Hong secretly wiped his sweat, why did the couple start again...

Chu Yi liquidated the properties under her name, except for Zong Yanxiu's share and the shares of the Chu family that were about to be transferred to Feng Xiu's mother and daughter, it was barely enough to pay the liquidated damages.

But it must be guaranteed that there will be no moths in the future...

Just then, there was another knock on the office door.

The manager of the marketing department came in in a panic, "Mr. Chu, Mr. Yu said that he will not sell the copyright of "City Wall"..."

Chu Yi paused, her tone could no longer suppress her anger, "Why?"

"The other party didn't say anything, just that they didn't want to buy it, and would rather pay sky-high liquidated damages." The manager wiped off his cold sweat, "But our cast and actors have already been arranged, and the venue has also been rented. This is the largest investment Xin He has ever made. project."

Chuy rubbed her cheeks, "How much did you invest in the early stage?"

"A preliminary estimate is nearly 1000 million. If the filming is stopped, the actor's liquidated damages will be sky-high..."

Chuy gritted his teeth.

This matter is naturally related to Zong Yanxiu.

She closed her eyes tiredly, "I see, you go out first."

When she opened her eyes again, she stared at Zong Yanxiu's head, feeling more and more unhappy in her heart.

Office of President Hengzong.

After Wang Hong learned of these two incidents, he entrusted his subordinates not to make things too serious, after all, it was just a matter of anger between the couple.

Then he walked into the office with a haggard face.

"Boss, there is no movement from Xin He's side, the young lady has been in the office."

Seeing that Zong Yanxiu did not respond, Wang Hong added in a low voice, "Didn't eat lunch..."

Zong Yanxiu's straightened back froze.

She didn't feel sorry for his body anymore, but he started to feel sorry for her...

Shrouded in irritability and having nowhere to vent, he said coldly, "She won't eat until she's hungry."

Wang Hong raised his head cautiously, "Then...boss, are you eating? Are you hungry?"

Zong Yanxiu slowly raised his head, his gloomy black eyes exuded coldness.

Wang Hong quickly fled with his tail between his legs.

The office returned to silence.

The man quietly looked at Chuy's profile picture on the phone, but there was no movement on it.

Since she didn't want to see him, he used business as an excuse to let her come out to see him.

It wasn't until noon on the third day that Chu Yi finally came to Hengzong Group.

He took the elevator straight to the door of the office. Just as Wang Hong came out, he suddenly saw Chu Yi and hurried him in.

In the office, Wang Hong looked at the situation, chose to shut up, and immediately closed the door gently and left.

There was no one in the office or bathroom, Chu Yi glanced at the door of the lounge, hesitated, pushed it open and walked in.

On the bed, the man's cheeks were flushed, and he lay there motionless with his eyes closed.

Have a fever?
Thinking of the fact that he was exposed to the rain that night, and that he hardly had any rest or food in those three days, it's no wonder he didn't get sick.

The carpet was soft, she walked to the bed and looked at him quietly.

The man in light sleep had a deep furrow between his brows, and his dry lips were pursed.

In a few days, he seemed to have lost a lot of weight.

Chuy didn't wake him up, she sat by the window and watched quietly.

After an unknown period of time, she leaned against the window and fell asleep in a daze.

When he woke up again, he was awakened by the woody fragrance lingering around him.

The man's arm landed on her back and under the bend of her leg, Chu Yi hurriedly pushed him away, "What are you doing?"

"Go to bed when you're sleepy." His voice was hoarse.

Chu Yi swallowed, and looked away a little guilty, "No need, I came to see you for something."

He stood up straight, took two steps back, his expression was cold and handsome, his eyes were dim.

Chu Yi stood up and resumed her business-like attitude, "Why did Hengzong grab the script of "City Wall"? We will start filming next week."

"It's not that I haven't filmed yet." His voice was loose and cool, with his arms folded.

Anger appeared on Chu Yi's fair face, "Zong Yanxiu, do you have any business ethics?"

Ah--
The man laughed softly.

"Isn't it easier for you to do such things as temporary breach of contract than me?"

A mocking tone filled the cramped room.

Chu Yi's tone froze, unable to refute a word.

He was right, she was the one who broke the contract temporarily...

She took a deep breath, "I admit that I don't have the strength to compete with Hengzong, but this is a project we have prepared for nearly half a year. How can you give up this script?"

The man raised his eyebrows slightly, and the result was self-evident.

"Except for marriage." Chu Yi directly rejected that choice.

He seemed not surprised, smiled lightly, turned and walked out, "Let's have a meal with me first."

"Are you going to quit after eating?" Chu Yi hurriedly got up and chased after him, asking eagerly.

His slender big hand landed on the door rail, and he glanced back at him, "Come with me for a meal, I can think about it."

Chu Yi gritted her teeth, and could only agree.

She didn't even have lunch, so she followed him away.

Several assistant secretaries of the president's office looked at the men and women walking in the corridor one after the other, and looked at each other in blank dismay.

"Wang Tezhu, why do we want to grab the proprietress' book here? What's the matter with the couple, and they have come to this point."

Wang Hong waved his hand, "If only I knew, let's go eat and eat."
