Just as those people were so angry that they wanted to come up and physically force them out, Yan Zhou and his assistant returned.
Seeing that Xu Tingyu had already arrived, the previously listless look in his eyes instantly brightened.
He was like a droopy little puppy seeing its owner.
Xu Tingyu glanced at him. He was sitting in a wheelchair, looking even thinner than the last time they met, but his spirit seemed better.
"Sister, you're here."
Probably because of the presence of those high - level executives, Yan Zhou didn't call her by her name this time but directly addressed her as "sister".
At this, Chen Yan couldn't help but let out a dissatisfied snort. "What? Do you really think you're some cute little puppy, calling her sister?"
Xu Tingyu secretly pinched him, signaling him to keep quiet.
This was the time to unite against the external threat; there was no room for internal strife.
Besides, she was four or five years older than him. What was wrong with being called "sister"?
Chen Yan endured the pinch and continued to stay silent, acting like a dutiful background character.
Xu Tingyu nodded at Yan Zhou. "Is the check - up over? Come and sit down first."
Actually, Yan Zhou's company wasn't stingy. At least, this VIP ward was quite spacious.
But with so many people sitting in it now, it seemed a bit cramped.
"Sister, I called you here today because I want to terminate my contract with the company. I'd like to hear your opinion."
Yan Zhou wheeled his chair over to her side and stared at her intently.
It was as if with her arrival, his backbone had returned.
Before Xu Tingyu could say anything, someone interrupted. "Who is she to you? Can she make decisions for you? If you terminate the contract, can she pay the penalty for you?"
"I may not be able to pay the penalty for him, but I can help him find a pretty good criminal lawyer."
Xu Tingyu's gaze swept over the person who had just spoken, and the sharpness in her eyes was almost impossible to hide.
"Hehe, a lawyer? Even if a lawyer comes, they have to follow the rules."
The man was unperturbed and retorted sarcastically.
But soon he realized that Xu Tingyu had said "criminal lawyer".
His face changed slightly, and he fell silent for a moment.
Xu Tingyu stared at him with interest. "Why don't you say anything? Follow the rules, right? I thought you knew the law quite well. Then why do you break it yourself?"
Her gaze swept over the faces of those with different expressions and finally landed on the manager's face.
Seeing that he seemed a bit dazed, she couldn't help but shake her head inwardly.
Sure enough, this impulsive manager was just an employee of the company and had no access to the upper - level decision - making.
Even now, he was still out of the loop.
Xu Tingyu took out a file bag from her bag and threw it directly on the coffee table.
"Take a look, everyone. See if the evidence I've collected is enough to prove that you deliberately injured Yan Zhou."
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Yan Zhou's fingers on his knees suddenly curl up, and his face turned pale.
She sighed inwardly and couldn't help but pat his shoulder to calm him down.
Among those people, it was the manager who made the first move.
He snatched the file bag and flipped through the contents. After a long time, he looked at the others in disbelief.
"Just to force Yan Zhou to sign the contract and make him a pawn in the struggle between you and the boss, you were willing to let him get hurt?!"
"He almost lost his life. Do you know that? For the sake of profit, you don't even care about someone's life."
"Terrible, it's really terrible. You devils! Yan Zhou and the others have grown up right under our noses."
As the manager spoke, his eyes turned red, and his hand holding the papers trembled uncontrollably.
The file bag contained what Xu Tingyu had investigated during this period.
Since she met Yan Zhou last time, she always felt that the whole thing was strange.
So in the end, she called Qi Ye and asked him about it straightforwardly.
Qi Ye was also very surprised and immediately called his secretary to ask what was going on.
The secretary was equally surprised.
"At that time, when they came, I said we could arrange a medical team for them. But because it was a sudden incident, we needed to coordinate, and it might take at least three or four days at the earliest."
"Then they replied very rudely that it was unacceptable. They couldn't wait. They were big stars and must receive the best treatment immediately."
"Later, thinking of the connection with Miss Xu, I asked them to give me the medical records first so that I could arrange for a doctor to assess the situation and then coordinate the time accordingly."
"But they were extremely unreasonable and said no. They would only provide the records after seeing the team, and they demanded the best treatment."
"We communicated for a long time, and they seemed very irritable. Finally, they said they didn't need our help."
When the secretary talked about this incident, there was still a hint of anger in his micro - expression.
Obviously, the communication between the two sides at that time was really unpleasant, and there might even have been some verbal conflicts.
But in front of Xu Tingyu, the secretary didn't say much.
After listening, Xu Tingyu was silent for a few seconds and asked the secretary, "Do you know Chinese? When you communicated with them, did you communicate with the translator the whole time?"
"For the other person who only spoke Chinese, did you ever have a chance to talk directly?"
The secretary shook his head. "Sorry, I really don't know Chinese. We communicated in English."
The secretary was German, and English wasn't his first language.
The manager's English was very poor, and he basically couldn't understand.
That is to say, the problem might very well lie with the translator.
But for a small translator who obeyed the company, how could they cause such a stir and delay the treatment of the company's artists?
Qi Ye obviously also thought of this and immediately comforted Xu Tingyu. "Don't worry. I'll look into this."
But Xu Tingyu refused. "No need. I already have their discharge diagnosis at that time. I'll handle the rest. I'm sorry to trouble you so much, big brother."
The misunderstandings with Qi Ye made her feel very guilty.
Sure enough, Qi Ye had no other intentions towards her. Qi Shifeng's speculations were all nonsense.
It seemed that when problems arose, timely communication was necessary to avoid over - thinking and making the situation worse.
Qi Ye still smiled gently. "Don't be so polite with big brother."
After that, Xu Tingyu combined the information she had already obtained, had people conduct investigations, and communicated with Yan Zhou several times.
Finally, she pieced together the truth.
That is, the entertainment company that Try belonged to was on the verge of splitting up.
But everyone wanted to take away the most profitable Try, and Yan Zhou was the core member of the team. The other team members all listened to him.
So if they could get him on their side, they could control the whole team.
But before the overseas performance, the shareholders who were about to split up had sounded him out and learned that he still wanted to stay with the original boss.
After some discussion, they decided that this wouldn't do. They had to cause some trouble for him.
