Urban Film and Television: Jiang Lai is the Top Choice

But to Pei Duo's surprise, Wang Manni also looked at Pei Duo with a cold face and said, "Don't look at me! With your fuss today, your sister Jiang Lai and I are in trouble too."

Pei Duo frowned in confusion, looking at Wang Manni and Jiang Lai, and asked, "What do you mean?"

Jiang Lai and Wang Manni glanced at Pei Duo, unsure how to explain it to her.

Mu Qi, however, knew the difficulties Jiang Lai and Wang Manni faced. He sighed and said to Pei Duo, "You shouldn't have brought this matter here today, and you shouldn't have started causing trouble for Mr. Yang as soon as you walked in. Fortunately, Mr. Yang wasn't here, otherwise you wouldn't even have had time to discuss a solution."

After hearing Mu Qi's explanation, Pei Duo realized that He Xinyan and Tang Qiqi's withdrawal from the cheerleading team had nothing to do with Peng Jiahe.

However, she insisted on causing trouble for Peng Jiahe and Yang Chu, which was completely unreasonable and even deliberately trying to cause trouble for Yang Chu. Moreover, her reasons for causing trouble were untenable. It's no wonder that Yang Chu and Peng Jiahe were furious!

Thinking of this, Pei Duo couldn't help but look at Wang Manni and Jiang Lai. Who gave her the audacity to come and cause trouble for Yang Chu and Peng Jiahe so brazenly?

Pei Duo now realizes that she has tricked Wang Manni and Jiang Lai, and she also understands why Peng Jiahe told her to ask her parents to resolve today's events before leaving.

She understood even more clearly that Peng Jiahe was treating her like a child. When a child misbehaves and causes trouble, the parents have to be called in to resolve it. The only parents here are Jiang Lai and Wang Manni.

However, Jiang Lai and Wang Manni are Yang Chu's women. If Jiang Lai and Wang Manni speak up for Pei Duo, then they will not be able to stay by Yang Chu's side any longer.

If they want to protect Jiang Lai and Wang Manni, they can only ask her parents to step in.

Pei Duo, having figured it all out, slumped into her chair, muttering to herself, "How could this happen! How could this happen!"

Seeing Pei Duo's expression, Mu Qi sighed helplessly again and said to Jiang Lai and Wang Manni, "You two can try to pin today's events on me! I'll take full responsibility."

Jiang Lai sneered and looked at Mu Qi, saying, "You'll take responsibility? Can you afford to? If things aren't handled properly today, Manny and I might be kicked out. The best outcome for Pei Duo's company group would be acquisition. What are you going to use to take responsibility?"

Mu Qi, Pei Duo, and Wang Manni stared at Jiang Lai in disbelief; they hadn't expected the consequences to be so severe.

Pei Duo looked at Jiang Lai nervously and said, "Sister Jiang Lai, are you trying to scare me?"

"Scare you? What do you have to scare? Yang Chu was going to start a war with someone yesterday. Do you know how many people tried to stop him? In the end, he was suppressed by some nobody. Yang Chu is furious right now! And you just come and offer yourself up to let Yang Chu vent his anger."

Pei Duo hoped Jiang Lai was just trying to scare her, so she turned to Wang Manni, hoping she would give a different answer.

But Wang Manni nodded dejectedly and said, "Yesterday's incident caused quite a stir. You can get the answer by asking anyone in the industry. Lai Lai has no reason to lie to you."

When Pei Duo heard Wang Manni say that, she knew it must be true. She might have really run into trouble today.

"What should we do now?"

Jiang Lai glared angrily at Pei Duo and said, "What else can we do! Either your sister Manny and I will take the fall, or... we'll have your parents come over to discuss compensation!"

After Jiang Lai finished speaking, she looked at Mu Qi and said, "I advise you to leave as soon as possible. Yesterday's incident was handled by an unknown nobody. If you provoke him again today, Yang Chu might really lose his temper and become reckless. We won't be able to stop him then."

Wang Manni nodded in agreement with Mu Qi, saying, "You should leave first. It's really not appropriate for you to get involved in what happened today."

Mu Qi understood what Jiang Lai and Wang Manni meant, but he was still a little worried about Pei Duo.

Pei Duo knew that Mu Qi was worried about her, so she sighed and said to Mu Qi, "You should go first! The rest of the matter is really not something you can get involved in. In the end, I caused all of today's trouble. I will inform my parents to come and handle it."

Mu Qi sighed, stood up, and said, "Then I'll be going now! If..."

Mu Qi was interrupted by Jiang Lai halfway through his sentence.

“There are no ‘ifs’! If we can’t solve it, you certainly can’t either. With you involved, things will only get more complicated.”

Seeing that Jiang Lai had been so direct, Mu Qi didn't press the matter further with her. He nodded and turned to leave.

After Mu Qi left, Jiang Lai looked at Pei Duo and said, "Should I inform your parents, or should you do it?"

Pei Duo said with a mournful expression, "I'll go and inform them!"

Pei Duo knew that she had caused trouble today, and if it wasn't handled properly, it might affect the relationship between the Jiang family, the Yang family, and the Pei family.

After Pei Duo dialed her parents' number, she only said that she had gotten into trouble and asked them to come to Jiang Lai's restaurant to talk things over.

Pei Duo's parents frowned when they heard that Pei Duo had caused trouble, but when they heard that they should go to Jiang Lai's restaurant to talk in detail, they roughly guessed that Pei Duo must have offended Yang Chu.

After Pei Duo's parents hung up the phone, they notified Yin Jian and Jiang Haokun, asking them to go to Jiang Lai's Western restaurant to see what was going on.

Pei Duo had just hung up the phone when Yang Chu asked Li Jialuo to call them to have a meal.

When Jiang Lai saw that it was Li Jialuo who came to call them, not Yang Chu, she knew that Yang Chu already had a problem with them.

Jiang Lai sighed, glanced at Pei Duo, and said, "Why don't you go have dinner with Jiahe and the others?"

Although Pei Duo didn't understand why Jiang Lai wouldn't let her go with her, she knew Jiang Lai must have other things to do, so she nodded and asked the waiter to take her to find Peng Jiahe and the others.

Jiang Lai and Wang Manni soon arrived at Yang Chu's private room.

When Jiang Lai pushed open the door to the private room, she saw Yang Chu serving soup to Fang Wenxi and the others while introducing the dishes.

"Let me tell you! I started making this soup for you around eight o'clock this morning. You should drink more of it, especially Andy. You use your brain a lot, and this medicinal soup is mainly to refresh your mind, clear your mind and improve your eyesight. It will be very good for you."

Andy rolled her eyes at Yang Chu and said, "Is it really as good as you say? I feel like you're exaggerating a bit!"

"Hey! Don't you believe me? This dish was once reserved for emperors in the palace. If you don't want to eat it, that's fine, but you two, Belle and Moonhee, should eat more."
