Fan Binbin Accuses Qiong Yao, Zhou Yan Supports Contract Termination

Hu En was very happy; this was the first New Year's greeting he had received. Others either sent a text message or didn't call.

Zhou Yan chatted with Yuen Woo-ping for a while because "Little Li Flying Dagger" was about to start filming, and Yuen Woo-ping told Zhou Yan to get ready!

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Yan didn't send any more text messages, but called Fan Binbin directly!

Why call Fan Binbin last? Because we had the longest conversation with her!

Fan Binbin watched the Spring Festival Gala while keeping an eye on his phone.

"Why isn't this guy making a sound?" Fan Binbin muttered to himself.

Just then, a phone call came in.

The sudden noise startled Fan Binbin.

Seeing the familiar number, Fan Binbin grabbed her phone and ran back to her room.

"Where are you going?" Mother Fan asked loudly.

"I have something to do," Fan Binbin said, brushing it off.

After returning to the house, Fan Binbin locked the door and answered Zhou Yan's call.

"Feed!" Fan Binbin's familiar voice rang out!

"Happy New Year!" Zhou Yan wished.

"Happy New Year!" Fan Binbin smiled and offered his blessings in return.

"When are you returning to Kyoto?"

"What's wrong? Missed me?"

"Yeah, I miss you!" Zhou Yan readily admitted, "I think about you every day!"

Fan Binbin's heart melted when she heard Zhou Yan's words.

"I miss you too!" Fan Binbin was enveloped in sweetness at this moment.

"So, what date are you going back to Kyoto?"

When are you coming back?

"I'll go back on the sixth day of the lunar new year," Zhou Yan replied.

"Then I'll go back on the 6th too," Fan Binbin said. There was nothing to do at home, so she might as well meet Zhou Yan sooner.

Lovers are always like this; though separated by thousands of miles, mountains and seas cannot hinder them!

"Then it's settled!" Zhou Yan was overjoyed!

……

"Is Binbin in a relationship?" Fan's mother asked thoughtfully, watching Fan Binbin leave.

"You can ask her later," Mr. Fan said, startled, before urging Mrs. Fan to ask.

"I won't ask, you ask me," Mother Fan hurriedly shook her head.

"I didn't want to ask, that's why I made you ask," Mr. Fan said, justifying his statement.

"I don't want to ask either," said Fan's mother, who didn't want to pry into her daughter's privacy.

"Speaking of which, Binbin has grown up quite a bit," Mr. Fan said with a sense of nostalgia, as if saying, "My daughter has come of age."

"Yeah, I'm eighteen already!"

The eighteenth age mentioned by Fan's mother refers to the traditional Chinese age reckoning (by the Chinese system of counting age as eighteen).

……

Zhou Yan and Fan Binbin chatted until after 4 a.m.

In a phone call, Fan Binbin complained about Qiong Yao's unfair treatment of him, saying that she was not only harsh on him on set, but also refused to give him any resources.

"I took on a drama series on my own!" While accusing Qiong Yao of not giving him resources, Fan Binbin did not sit idly by but instead took on a drama series on his own.

"What drama?" Zhou Yan already had a guess in his mind.

During this time period, Fan Binbin accepted the role privately, so it could only be "Little Li Flying Dagger"!

"You should have heard of 'Little Li Flying Dagger'!" Fan Binbin knew that Zhou Yan liked martial arts novels and would definitely know this novel!

"I knew it," Zhou Yan said with a smug look on his face after hearing Fan Binbin's words.

He didn't mention his role in "Little Li Flying Dagger," wanting to surprise the other party.

"I accepted this without permission. I wonder if Aunt Qiong Yao will be angry when she finds out!"

"To be honest, I want to terminate the contract," Fan Binbin said, his tone filled with helplessness and regret.

That contract should never have been signed in the first place!

"I support your decision to terminate the contract," Zhou Yan said, offering her full support instead of words of comfort.

"I'm just thinking about it now," Fan Binbin sighed.

Why?

"If I terminate the contract, I will have to pay a large amount of liquidated damages," which is why Fan Binbin dares not change jobs.

"However, if they go too far, I'll terminate the contract even if it means going bankrupt!"

"Binbin, did you sign the contract back then? Or did your uncle and aunt sign it together with you?" Zhou Yan asked.

"I signed it myself," Fan Binbin said, his regret deepening. "I didn't know anything back then, and I signed a seven-year contract!"

"If you signed the contract yourself, it has no legal effect because you were a minor at the time."

"According to our country's laws, a contract signed by a minor is only valid if the minor is accompanied by his or her parents. Since you are not a person with full civil capacity, I feel that if we were to go to court, the contract would be more likely to be invalid."

Even if we were to concede that we had breached the contract, we could simply offer compensation!

"You make it sound so easy. Do you even know how much the penalty for breach of contract is?" Fan Binbin was speechless.

"How many?"

"One million!" Fan Binbin exclaimed dramatically. "I wouldn't be worth that much even if you sold me!"

"How could you not be worth it? In my heart, you are priceless!" Zhou Yan said sweet words.

"You're good at making me happy," Fan Binbin smiled slightly, her gloomy mood vanishing.

"I'm not just trying to make you happy, I'm serious," Zhou Yan said earnestly. "If you're unhappy with Qiong Yao, then terminate the contract. I have a million here."

Zhou Yan wasn't just trying to coax Fan Binbin; he genuinely meant it.

At the end of last month, he received his first publishing fee.

A truly terrifying number!

More than eight million after tax!

Zhou Yan never dared to even imagine this before!

Aside from the high royalty rate offered by "Shanghai People's Publishing House", the real reason is that the books are selling like hotcakes!

Zhou Yan is incredibly wealthy these days!

Of course, compared to big names like Jin Yong and Qiong Yao, he was just a nobody!

"Don't be ridiculous," Fan Binbin said, not believing it at all!

This is a million dollars, not a hundred dollars!

"Do you think I would joke about something this big?" Zhou Yan retorted.

Fan Binbin fell silent immediately!

"Are you telling the truth?" Fan Binbin's voice was a little hoarse.

At this moment, Fan Binbin was very nervous and felt a dry mouth.

I felt both excited and a little apprehensive.

I hope Zhou Yan is telling the truth, but I'm also apprehensive that he's joking with me!

In fact, Fan Binbin had long wanted to terminate his contract with Qiong Yao's side, but he lacked the resources to do so.

Fan Binbin had a very frustrating time with Qiong Yao. When he was acting, she disliked him for showing off; and she didn't give him any resources in private.

She didn't want to keep playing maids, nor did she want to endure this torment forever.

She wanted to venture out and make her own way in the world!

"Of course it's true!"

"How come you're so rich?" Fan Binbin breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Zhou Yan's affirmative answer!

But soon, she became curious.

Zhou Yan doesn't look like a rich person at all!

Do you remember the book I wrote?

"The World's Number One?"

"The royalties have come through, and I received several million," Zhou Yan said, without specifying the exact amount.

"So, you're a millionaire?" Fan Binbin felt her mind go blank, as if it were buzzing.

"So, if you don't want to stay with Qiong Yao anymore, just terminate the contract. Leave the rest to me. As your boyfriend, I'll naturally protect you from the storm." Zhou Yan wouldn't obediently pay a million-dollar penalty for breach of contract; he would definitely have to negotiate with Qiong Yao's side.

"Zhou Yan," upon hearing Zhou Yan's words, Fan Binbin could no longer hold back, her voice trembling with a hint of tears, "Thank you!"

"You're being too polite. Let's talk about the specifics when we meet!" Zhou Yan didn't say much on the phone.

"Okay," Fan Binbin reluctantly hung up the phone.

If Zhou Yan were by her side, she would not hesitate to throw herself into his arms.
