Wu Pengpeng felt a sudden shiver down her spine when she received He Qianshan's death glare.
Why did it feel like she had been caught cheating on the spot?
She cast a pleading look at Zhao Bufan. Zhao Bufan gave her a look that seemed to say "fend for yourself" and then unchivalrously slipped away.
Jerk!
Wu Pengpeng silently cursed in her heart. Looking at He Qianshan embarrassedly, she rubbed her hands and said, "Well, actually I can explain."
She thought that Shen Qianqian's contract termination was the fuse. Only by igniting this fuse could she blow up Lantian Entertainment behind Shen Qianqian and ultimately achieve the goal of ruining the family fortune.
In this sense, Shen Qianqian was indeed more important.
"You don't need to explain to me," He Qianshan said like a spoilt and delicate character straight out of a romantic drama. "We don't have any relationship. Why are you explaining to me?"
After saying that, he turned around and left, leaving Wu Pengpeng alone at the toilet door.
What should she do now?
Wu Pengpeng had no experience in this regard, so she had to search online for "what to do when you make a man angry".
She didn't find any relevant results, but there were many answers to "what to do when you make your boyfriend angry".
Well, something was better than nothing. She might as well take a look.

"What bullshit advice!"
Wu Pengpeng couldn't help but mutter under her breath, but in her heart, she couldn't help imagining He Qianshan as a soft and tearful little thing.
It was kind of exciting to think about!
Wu Pengpeng quickly coughed lightly to interrupt her dirty thoughts.
She then clicked on another reply. This netizen seemed more serious and offered several constructive suggestions, mainly including giving gifts according to the other person's preferences, caring about the other person's emotions, and saying a few nice words to coax them.
With these suggestions, Wu Pengpeng felt a lot more at ease. She strode towards the meeting room, intending to coax He Qianshan before his emotions completely exploded.
Just as she reached the meeting room door, she bumped into Huo Jingting and Qin Ledi who were coming towards her.
When they saw her, they were like bulls seeing red cloth, eager to pounce on her. But due to Lan Qing behind them, they had to hold back.
Wu Pengpeng pretended not to see them and waved to the middle - aged woman behind them. "Hi, are you General Manager Lan?"
Lan Qing's face sank when she saw Wu Pengpeng's impolite behavior.
She wanted to see what this young girl, who was being eyed by her uncles for the family business and was in a difficult situation, could do to fight against her.
Last night, after her business entertainment, she had planned to go to Huo Jingting for some fun. However, Huo Jingting was in a bad mood after being humiliated at an event, which ruined her mood.
She had to give him money and buy him a dress to soothe him before he finally cheered up.
Early this morning, her secretary called and said that the person who had humiliated Huo Jingting last night had come.
Today, she must teach Wu Pengpeng a lesson!
"Ms. Wu, please," she made a polite gesture towards the meeting room and pushed the door open first.
Wu Pengpeng walked in slowly. There were only Zhao Bufan and Shen Qianqian in the meeting room. He Qianshan was nowhere to be found.
When Shen Qianqian saw Qin Ledi and Huo Jingting enter, she subconsciously stood up, and fear involuntarily showed in her eyes.
Seeing this, Wu Pengpeng walked over and sat down beside her. She gently pulled at Shen Qianqian's clothes to signal her to sit down.
Shen Qianqian looked at Wu Pengpeng blankly. Meeting her soothing eyes, she finally felt at ease and obediently sat down.
After seeing that Shen Qianqian had calmed down, Wu Pengpeng got straight to the point. "General Manager Lan, I'm here for two things today. First, I'm here to help Qianqian terminate her contract."
Qin Ledi looked at the calm and composed Wu Pengpeng, gritting her teeth with hatred.
Last night, Wu Pengpeng had not only publicly humiliated her but also Huo Jingting.
Since Wu Pengpeng didn't want her to have a good time, she wouldn't let Wu Pengpeng off easily either.
"Sure, since you want to terminate the contract, let's follow the contract," she looked at Shen Qianqian and sneered. "Shen Qianqian, don't you forget what you've done just because you've found a new backer?"
"Are you sure you want to follow the contract?" Wu Pengpeng knew that Shen Qianqian had developed PTSD (post - traumatic stress disorder) because of her abuse, so she kindly acted as Shen Qianqian's spokesperson. "Your contract is a predatory clause and has no legal effect. If you follow the contract, you won't get any benefits."
Looking at Qin Ledi's ashen face, she grinned provocatively. "You're so stupid. I'm in a good mood today and giving you a chance to extort me, but you don't even know how to seize it."
Qin Ledi was so angry that she jumped up on the spot. "You!"
"Stop it," Wu Pengpeng waved at her, signaling her to sit down. "I'm taking this chance back."
She looked at Huo Jingting, and her face turned cold. "Apart from the one - million - yuan IOU, I won't give you a single cent more. If you don't agree, I'll hire a lawyer for her. Even if we lose the lawsuit, she'll only be judged to pay you one million yuan. But no one can tell whether this one million yuan was you scamming her or her borrowing from you. Your reputation probably won't be very good."
Huo Jingting couldn't figure out where he had offended this woman.
Although he was a low - class idol who flattered fans and made money from them, he was a good idol in his own eyes!
He had never shown any flaws in front of his fans. Why was this woman like a big fan who had turned against him, hitting him hard every time?
Wu Pengpeng leaned back in her chair and said lazily, "Besides, she's not the only fan you've scammed like this, right?"
She slowly stood up, walked to the meeting room door, opened it, and shouted at the office hall, "Is there anyone here who works in Huo Jingting's studio?"
Four girls timidly raised their hands.
There were quite a few of them. She could waste a little money this time.
Wu Pengpeng said to them, "Come in."
The girls were confused, but seeing that she was a distinguished guest personally received by General Manager Lan and Huo Jingting, they didn't dare to be negligent and got up to walk into the meeting room.
"Do you want to terminate your contracts?" Wu Pengpeng looked at the girls in front of her, trying to smile as gently as possible. "I'm helping Qianqian terminate her contract. If you want to terminate yours, I'll help you too."
The girls had long suffered from the perverted Qin Ledi and Huo Jingting. They were eager to terminate their contracts but couldn't afford the fees, so they had to endure their abuse.
Now that a lucky star had fallen from the sky, they were almost in tears with joy and quickly nodded. "Yes."
Wu Pengpeng smiled gently. "Okay, I'll pay for your contract termination fees too."
She then turned to look at Huo Jingting, and her face became as cold as ice. "If you agree, terminate the contracts with them right now. If you don't, I'll find a lawyer immediately."
Huo Jingting thought it over carefully. Terminating the contracts privately was indeed better than going to court.
Although he was reluctant, he had to agree. "Fine."
Wu Pengpeng took out a checkbook from her bag, wrote a check, and threw it in front of Huo Jingting. "Bye there!"
Before Huo Jingting could get angry at such humiliation, he heard Wu Pengpeng's cold voice again, which drilled into his ears like a persistent parasite.
"Oh, right. This five - million - yuan is the last money you'll earn in this circle. Use it slowly and don't squander it. You'll have a long and hard time ahead."
