It had been two days since the test results came out, but Murphy's mother still hadn't arrived. She wasn't in a rush like Mo Henian, who left as soon as he said he would. She also needed some time to pack her luggage, visa, plane tickets, and other issues.
Yang Yi and Murphy didn't need to put all their work aside. This time, they were mentally prepared and simply bought some necessities for their mother-in-law.
Yang Yi didn't idle around either. He needed to arrange the work at hand in advance, such as the new movie "The Fugitive". Today, Yang Yi asked Mo Xiaojuan to come over and sign some contracts for the new movie with Du Yuanlei.
Mo Xiaojuan arrived early. She was happily talking to Yang Yi. "Brother-in-law, you don't know how wonderful the expression on Sister Ling's face was after she told her about this."
Although Murphy's pregnancy hadn't been announced to the media yet, she still reported it to the company.
"Okay, okay, didn't Sister Ling also express an understanding attitude later?" Murphy was afraid that Mo Xiaojuan would say something too unpleasant, so she quickly said, "It's not good for us to speak ill of others behind their backs."
"Pfft, I'm just telling the truth! She even wanted to arrange six more concerts for you, in addition to countless commercial performances! " Mo Xiaojuan pursed her lips and said, "Only now did she relent and say that it's up to you. The company won't interfere in anything."
Mo Xiaojuan even imitated Niu Meiling's sullen tone.
Yes, there were still a few months left in the contract. In the end, she couldn't continue to earn money and had to force a smile to congratulate Murphy. With Niu Meiling's personality, she must be very depressed.
Mo Xiaojuan didn't know how to describe Niu Meiling's hopeless expression. She had bumped into Murphy's two pregnancies. Just thinking about it made her want to break down!
"Actually, I still want to sing a few concerts." Murphy saw Yang Yi looking over and quickly explained, "I'm just saying. Now that I'm pregnant, we have to be careful."
Yang Yi waved his hand and smiled. "That's not what I meant. I support you to work, but don't overwork yourself. According to the books, it's good for a woman to work moderately during pregnancy. For example, she can maintain a regular lifestyle. It's easy to become lazy when resting at home. If she's unwilling to exercise, it's not good for weight control and delivery. Also, going out to work and interacting with others is also good for maintaining a good attitude … "
For the past two days, Yang Yi had specially bought some books to read. From the books on how to be a pregnant woman, he had learned some knowledge about pregnancy so that he could take better care of Murphy.
"So, I feel that you don't have to retire and wait for labor like you did five years ago. That's not fair to you. Do what you need to do. Stop work one or two months before the due date and wait for delivery with peace of mind! As for after giving birth to the baby, you can continue to sing after recuperating! "Yang Yi said.
Murphy was stunned. She didn't expect Yang Yi to say something like that. She was prepared to temporarily give up her career!
"Thank you, Yang Yi!" Murphy said softly as she grabbed Yang Yi's hand.
Mo Xiaojuan was jealous. She shook her head and said, "Anyway, we're the ones in charge now. Sis, what do you want to do? We'll tell Sister Ling! Anyway, it's Sister Ling who's in the wrong, not us. Who asked her to leak the news! "
Mo Xiaojuan was talking about Du Lun. In the past two days, the police had investigated Du Lun's transaction records with the entertainment tabloids. This investigation caused an uproar in Tianmei. Including Ju Jie, no one thought that the person who sold them out was the usually inconspicuous manager Du Lun!
What shocked Niu Meiling even more was that Zhen Zhen was also involved!
According to Du Lun's phone records, the police had asked Zhen Zhen to go over and understand the situation. However, Zhen Zhen wasn't a woman with a strong mental state. She couldn't resist the police's sharp questioning and spilled everything without holding anything back.
This time, Du Lun's question of how he got the information was finally answered. It wasn't Jian Chuo, but Jian Chuo's own people who were close to her!
However, the police came to a conclusion. Du Lun must have absconded with the money!
This person didn't have any family. His parents had passed away and he didn't have much contact with his relatives. Now, he had disappeared without a trace. The six hundred thousand in his card was also gone. Compared to Zhen Zhen's confession, where Du Lun wasn't willing to share the money with her, it could be inferred that Du Lun couldn't bear to part with the money. Plus, he was worried about being exposed, so he took the money and left Jiangcheng.
As for Du Lun's whereabouts, naturally, they couldn't find out. Maybe he was hiding in some city, or maybe he had already left the country?
As for Du Lun's investigation, because Tian Mei wasn't interested in continuing to tangle with the police, the police didn't pursue the matter further. It looked like an obvious economic crime, not a criminal case. The police weren't that enthusiastic.
Of course, this matter wasn't over yet within Tian Mei. Although Zhen Zhen didn't go to the extent of being imprisoned, what she had done was despised by everyone. The shocked Jian Chuo even scolded her for being a traitor!
Ju Jie was also ashamed. He now knew that it wasn't Jian Chuo or Teacher Kou who had done it, but his own manager who had betrayed Yang Yi.
In order to make up for it, Ju Jie repeatedly asked the company to freeze Zhen Zhen. She could avoid the death penalty, but she couldn't escape punishment. Zhen Zhen had done something she shouldn't have, and she finally got the punishment she deserved!
As for Du Lun, Ju Jie really didn't know what to do. He could only tell Yang Yi everything.
Yang Yi was the only person who knew everything. He pretended to communicate with Ju Jie and then reluctantly chose to forgive Ju Jie. This made Ju Jie feel grateful.
So, on Niu Meiling's side, on one hand, Du Lun had exposed the matter, so she was in the wrong. On the other hand, Ju Jie added fuel to the fire. She could only give up on some of her original plans and try her best to be nice to Murphy. She wanted Murphy to be like Sun Wukong, jumping out of the five elements and no longer under the company's control. She could do whatever she wanted …
Mo Xiaojuan, Yang Yi, and Murphy were chatting when Du Yuanlei, who had just finished her class, finally rushed over.
As for signing the contract, because they had worked together on "Fairy Tale," they were already familiar with Du Yuanlei. As for the film's investment, Yang Yi had also discussed it with Du Yuanlei. All the funds for the film would be provided by Yang Yi and Murphy's studio.
Although it was a low-budget film, Yang Yi still gave Du Yuanlei enough financial support to make the film as good as possible.
If they were going to shoot, they wanted to shoot the best!
"What about the actors? Mr. Yang, will you choose with me? "Du Yuanlei asked after signing the contract.
"I don't have time. You choose the actors according to your own standards. The basic requirements are actually explained in the script. As long as they meet those requirements, it will be fine," Yang Yi said. "When I come back from my hometown, I will see if the actors you choose are qualified!"
Du Yuanlei said hesitantly, "What about the candidate for Wang Mai? Can Xi Xi play the role? "
"Xi Xi is going to act again?" Murphy was interested.
"No, Xi Xi's personality is very different from the character in the script. So, I think Xi Xi is not very suitable!" Yang Yi quickly explained to Murphy.
"I think Xi Xi likes acting. As long as we explain it to her clearly, Xi Xi should be able to act very well!" Du Yuanlei was still a little stubborn.
"You'd better audition for child actors outside! Don't consider Xi Xi for the time being, "Yang Yi didn't want Xi Xi to come into contact with the entertainment industry too early, even if she liked acting.
Child actors became famous at a young age, but there were not many who could maintain their glory after adulthood. If they became ordinary people, they would be ridiculed by those entertainment tabloids. Even if they didn't stay in the entertainment industry, they would still be compared from time to time.
What's more, Yang Yi felt that Xi Xi was still enjoying her free and carefree childhood. Filming was too hard, and he couldn't bear to see his daughter suffer in the sun and rain on the set.
