The CEO is Too Fierce: My Adorable Wife Needs Taming

Chapter 245 Suspicion of Liang Qiao

Chapter 245 Suspicion of Liang Qiao

After a moment of hesitation, Liang Qiao did not immediately agree to Mu Xiaoyu's request, clearly struggling with something.

Mu Xiaoyu wasn't in a hurry. She calmly looked at Liang Qiao until he nodded, then sent a message in the artist group, asking them to come over.

Most of the artists in the group live not far from SQ, so after the message was sent out, within half an hour, almost all the artists in the artist group arrived one after another.

Most of the people here have already signed new contracts, with only a small number not. So they understand the contracts just as well as Mu Xiaoyu, and now that they're here, there's no need to waste time asking them if they understand the contracts.

"Almost everyone has arrived, so let's begin."

After most of the people had arrived, Mu Xiaoyu smiled and looked at Liang Qiao and the others, saying, "Mr. Liang, what you just said about my contracts with them is almost finalized. So, in front of you, I'll discuss our contracts with the other artists."

Mu Xiaoyu was now almost certain that their contracts were not the same for everyone as Liang Qiao had said; there must be something fishy going on.

"Since things have come to this point, if Mrs. Li wants to confront us, then we'll go with your suggestion."

Liang Qiao took a deep breath, seemingly somewhat helpless, but did not stop Mu Xiaoyu's actions.

Seeing this, Mu Xiaoyu stopped wasting time with unnecessary words and took out her contract, reading out all the key points that she and Bai Luo had highlighted earlier.

"Xiaoyu, our contracts are all the same."

After Mu Xiaoyu finished reading out the key points highlighted in the contract, the artists spoke up one after another. Their expressions were not good, even ugly, just like when they signed the contracts.

Even though most artists have been in the industry for years, they aren't particularly skilled at interpersonal communication, and many are far more naive than Mu Xiaoyu in their approach to things. Mu Xiaoyu almost fell for their tricks at first, let alone them.

Mu Xiaoyu was lucky; she noticed something was wrong before signing the contract. But for them, it was different. They had already signed the contract, whether it was unfair or not.

The artists' words made Mu Xiaoyu's face darken. She frowned as she looked at the artists in front of her and couldn't help but ask, "Are you sure they're all the same?"

"It's the same, at least what you just mentioned is largely the same. We brought the contract with us, take a look."

Mu Xiaoyu didn't say anything, but took their contracts and glanced at them. Sure enough, their contracts were basically the same...

This was completely unexpected for Mu Xiaoyu. She subconsciously looked at Li Chenxu, whose expression remained unchanged, but his eyes were thoughtful as he looked at the contract.

After a brief moment of surprise, Mu Xiaoyu quickly composed herself. She returned the contract to the artists, then looked at Liang Qiao and said with a smile, "It seems I misunderstood Mr. Qiao... However, even if Mr. Qiao is a businessman, he should understand the principle of mutual benefit. This contract, even if it can bind us artists now, will probably not be good for Mr. Liang or SQ if it gets out later."

At this moment, Liang Qiao returned to his humble and gentle demeanor. Hearing Mu Xiaoyu's words, he accepted them guiltily and nodded in agreement, saying, "Mrs. Li is right. It was indeed an oversight on the part of my subordinates and me. We have learned from this experience, and when we get back, I will have them draft a new contract that satisfies both of us."

This is already the best outcome at the moment. Besides, Liang Qiao's attitude has always been very good. If Mu Xiaoyu were to still hold onto this matter at this point, it would really be unreasonable.

So she nodded and said nothing more. After saying goodbye to the artists in the office, Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu left SQ.

Until she got into the car, Mu Xiaoyu barely spoke. Her mind kept replaying what had happened at SQ, trying to find something amiss.

It's strange, since the matter has been resolved by now, there shouldn't be anything wrong with it.

But for some reason, Mu Xiaoyu always felt that there was something the other person had overlooked.

"Still thinking about the contract?"

Seeing that Mu Xiaoyu remained silent, Li Chenxu suddenly spoke up and asked.

Mu Xiaoyu snapped out of her reverie upon hearing this. She glanced at Li Chenxu, thought for a moment, and finally nodded, asking, "Brother Chenxu, do you think there was anything strange about Liang Qiao and the others just now?"

"Have."

Without any hesitation, Li Chenxu continued after seeing the surprise in Mu Xiaoyu's eyes, "You've spent the whole day giving Li Zhe time to resolve this matter. If all contracts were the same, Li Zhe should have been well aware of this, and he should have resolved it quickly. But why did things only get resolved after Liang Qiao arrived?"

Back in SQ, Li Chenxu remained mostly silent, constantly thinking about and observing the matter and Liang Qiao and the others.

As an 'outsider,' Li Chenxu understood many things much better than Mu Xiaoyu.

Now that Mu Xiaoyu has asked this question, she has pointed out the problem very directly and incisively.

Mu Xiaoyu was clearly taken aback by this. Upon hearing this, she was stunned for a moment, and then her expression suddenly darkened even more. She suddenly remembered what Bai Ye had said yesterday: if there was really something fishy about the contract, and if this matter was really related to her, then Liang Qiao would definitely know, and basically, he would also be implicated in wanting to harm her.

If that's really the case, then as Bai Ye said yesterday, be careful of the people around you who go abroad and then come back. At least for now, besides Liang Qiao, Mu Xiaoyu can't think of anyone else who matches these descriptions.

Thinking of this, she quickly grabbed Li Chenxu's hand and said seriously, "Brother Chenxu, I think we need to investigate Liang Qiao and the identities of the people around him more thoroughly."

Seeing Mu Xiaoyu's serious expression, Li Chenxu's lips curled up slightly. He reached out and touched Mu Xiaoyu's soft hair, saying with a smile, "I was just thinking the same thing. Also, until we figure out Liang Qiao's situation, you must reduce the number of times you meet with him. If Liang Qiao really has some problems, I'm worried he might try to harm you."

"Don't worry, now that I'm suspicious of him, I definitely won't have much contact with him anymore."
