Yang Hong's agent was refreshing his phone when Weibo crashed. So he didn't notice anything unusual and went out to arrange the return journey.

Xu Meng's assistant was protective of her boss, but at that moment was still arranging for trolls to attack Pei Mingxuan online, not paying attention to other news.

So at this moment, Sun Mo was still calmly approaching Pei Mingxuan, and seeing her unpleasant expression, he knew that Pei Mingxuan already understood what they had done.

Sun Mo looked a bit uncomfortable, but still spoke: "Mingxuan, I need to talk to you. Come out for a moment."

Pei Mingxuan raised her cold, phoenix-like eyes, her sharp gaze making Sun Mo uneasy.

"You have the nerve to do this because you think I'm used to taking the blame for you, so one more time doesn't matter?"

Sun Mo's expression changed abruptly, his eyes darting around, wondering how she could say this with so many people around.

He glared at Pei Mingxuan in displeasure, "Let's talk outside."

But Pei Mingxuan let out a cold laugh and said: "No need. Sign this termination agreement, and from now on we'll go our separate ways. I can guarantee that regarding the script blame issue, I absolutely won't make any public statements to refute it."

As she spoke, Pei Mingxuan pulled out a freshly prepared termination agreement from her bag and placed it in front of Sun Mo.

At these words, everyone present drew in a sharp breath. Things had escalated to contract termination?

It seemed this time Sun Mo had really hurt his agent's feelings.

After all, the staff present all knew that the agent had previously made a fuss about changing the script, but Sun Mo didn't listen.

Now that he had lost the competition and was being mocked by everyone, Sun Mo shifting the blame to save face was really classless.

His agent was being considerate of their past relationship by not dragging Sun Mo down over this issue, planning to take the blame and then part ways. It could be considered loyal and righteous.

However...

Everyone awkwardly lowered their heads to look at the phones in their hands, with new messages constantly popping up, then raised their heads to look at the three people who had come in... Had they not seen that photo yet?

Was this the time to be concerned about contract termination?

Yang Hong: Strange? Why are so many people looking at me?

Xu Meng: Strange? It seems like a lot of people are sneaking glances at me.

[Not strange, they're just looking at you, haha.]

The Qin family members' excited gazes swept back and forth, wanting to see when their expressions would change.

Sun Mo hadn't noticed the situation around him, and interrupted in shock: "Pei Mingxuan, is this necessary? It's not like this is the first time... you still want to terminate the contract out of anger?"

Pei Mingxuan almost rolled her eyes, "I mentioned terminating the contract before, but you ignored it. After that, I went to prepare. I've already signed my part. Now you just need to sign, and the agreement will take effect. Do you still think I'm acting out of anger?"

Sun Mo was stunned.

But Pei Mingxuan continued on her own: "As for other contracts that can't be dissolved, we can handle them gradually according to legal regulations. I'm willing to bear any losses on my part, so, right now, immediately terminate our working relationship."

[Pff pff pff, I know Sister Pei can't stand it for another second.]

The Qin family: Trash should be thrown out as soon as possible.

After finishing, Pei Mingxuan took out a pen and held it right under Sun Mo's nose.

"You... you really want to do this? You just can't tolerate me and..." Sun Mo glanced at Xu Meng beside him.

[...Man, your name is narcissism.]

The Qin family: It's narcissistic personality disorder!

Pei Mingxuan's mouth twitched in disgust, and she said incredulously: "You still think I like you and I'm jealous? I really didn't know your imagination was so rich. I can only say your delusions disgust me."

[Sigh, why say such harsh truths, and in front of so many people too. Doesn't Mr. Narcissist care about face?]

The Qin family: Pff pff pff!

The onlookers busied themselves, pretending to be occupied, but they couldn't help but prick up their ears.

Say more, say more! Someone block the door, don't let them leave! You can't only eat half the melon!

The backstage really is the best place for gossip!

Sun Mo's face turned from red to pale in an instant. Flushed with shame and anger, he said: "You... if it's not jealousy, then what? You clearly did so much for me before. You drank until you had a stomach bleed while negotiating contracts, you could go days without sleep to corner producers for opportunities for me. No matter how hard I worked, you would always be there to encourage me. You..."

Sun Mo gradually fell silent as he spoke.

The others listened in amazement. So Pei Mingxuan had done so much for him! For Sun Mo to treat her like this, he really was heartless.

"You don't actually think I did all this because I had feelings for you, do you?" Pei Mingxuan sneered haughtily. "Even if I were training a dog to be an actor, I would put in this much effort, because it's my career!"

Sun Mo was so humiliated and angry he could barely stand, taking a step back.

[Sis, do you have to be so harsh! A dog actor would be more professional than him, never causing scandals and never backstabbing its owner!]

The Qin family: ...Can't tell which of you is more vicious.

"In my eyes, you used to be a potentially useful tool, but now you're nothing. I don't want to go down with you, being tied to you for even one more second makes me feel uncomfortable. So hurry up and sign, otherwise, you should know I have plenty of evidence to prove you lied!"

The color seemed to drain from Sun Mo's face layer by layer, probably finally waking up from his narcissism. His lips had turned white and were trembling: "You really want to be this ruthless! To cut all ties with me?"

[How can he have the nerve?]

Everyone: Why does he still look like the victim?!

"Keep talking, and I'll..." Pei Mingxuan took out her phone threateningly.

"Brother Mo!" Yang Hong called out in warning. Sun Mo looked over, and the two naturally had some tacit understanding. Looking at Xu Meng, although she hadn't spoken, her eyes were full of worry.

Seeing the three exchanging glances, everyone present's pupils trembled slightly, their toes curling in embarrassment.

They still didn't know! Well, no one had taken out their phones.

Damn, someone should tell them!

But... but no one wanted to miss out on this drama!

Sun Mo took a deep breath, calming down. He took the contract, his expression complex as he said: "You really want to terminate our contract?"

Pei Mingxuan nodded.

Sun Mo's eyes flickered, "Then you promise you won't..."

"I always keep my word. If I say I won't make any public statements on the matter, I won't. If you really pin it on me, I'll accept it by default!" Pei Mingxuan's eyes were deep as she made the promise.

"Fine! I trust you!" Sun Mo signed quickly in several places, in duplicate. He looked up with a solemn expression and exchanged contracts, "I owe you for this. In the future..."

"No need. We're even now. In the future, may the best person win." Pei Mingxuan contentedly took the contract, finally becoming a free agent.

Ji Fei finally couldn't hold back and burst out laughing, [Pff hahaha! Sister Pei is amazing! She won't make public statements, but she's already counterattacked secretly.]

The Qin family members: Pff pff pff pff, that's right, the premise of her accepting by default is that you actually manage to successfully shift the blame. What if the blame falls on your own head!

[As expected, someone at Sister Pei's level can only be ruthless, never soft-hearted. And she was able to use this opportunity to successfully terminate the contract. Sister Pei, you'll always be my idol!]

The Qin family: Killing two birds with one stone. Perhaps from the moment Sun Mo stepped in here, Pei Mingxuan sensed the opportunity to terminate the contract.

The other onlookers could only see the surface and couldn't help but marvel: "Pei Mingxuan is really generous. But indeed, heaven has eyes. They accidentally made a mistake themselves, so now..."

Just then, Yang Hong's agent and Xu Meng's assistant rushed in, almost colliding at the doorway.

"Yang Hong, something's happened!" The agent shouted while glaring angrily at Xu Meng.

"Meng Meng, quick, check your phone..." The assistant said anxiously.

Sun Mo immediately had a bad feeling. He quickly took out his phone to look. As soon as he saw, it was as if he'd been struck by lightning. His legs went weak, and he swayed for a moment before barely managing to stand.

He suddenly raised his head to look at Pei Mingxuan, "Was it you?"
