Chapter 836: Chapter 837 In Search of Justice

Sheng Minjia knew that, putting aside the power of the man’s family for a moment, his own net worth included three enterprises each valued at over a hundred million. He was indeed wealthy beyond his years, a playboy many times over compared to Han Zhicheng.

Soon, the call went through, and to Sheng Minjia’s slight surprise, Han Zhicheng was already downstairs at the company. She didn’t know if he was aware of what had happened at the recording studio.

Since Han Zhicheng had already hurried over, Sheng Minjia didn’t feel like beating around the bush and simply said they’d talk when he came up, then hung up.

It wasn’t long before Han Zhicheng arrived.

He first greeted the two women, Sheng Minjia and Xi Yiling, and then asked about the cause of the issue.

For Sheng Minjia, she thrived on chaos.

Moreover, this woman’s mind was particularly venomous. She truly despised Han Zhicheng and Xi Yiling, so she pointed at Li Changlin and said coldly, "I’m afraid you don’t know, Han Zhicheng, but this man has a close relationship with Xi Yiling. To help him record music in the best studio room, she ignored the regulations of your Zhicheng Recording Studio and took over room number two, which had already been booked, from your employees. She is clearly intent on ruining your business!"

"Sheng Minjia, don’t slander me!" Upon hearing this, Xi Yiling was both shocked and furious. She took a deep breath and quickly explained, "Han Zhicheng, don’t listen to Sheng Minjia’s nonsense."

"Where am I speaking nonsense? Xi Yiling, you’d better clarify your statement. Did you really not bring this man in, or do you have no relationship whatsoever with him?" Sheng Minjia was thoroughly repulsive. Once she caught a contradiction in Xi Yiling’s words, she pursued it relentlessly, with complete disregard.

Li Changlin, hearing all this, felt a surge of anger himself.

However, he didn’t want to stoop to the level of the woman in front of him.

Especially considering the trio seemed to be classmates.

In such a case, Li Changlin naturally kept himself from butting in. After all, even though the situation involved him, he had indeed used a room that was reserved by someone else.

As for the rules of Zhicheng Recording Studio, Li Changlin was unclear.

However, as a musician, he did understand the principles of sound equipment.

If one wanted to record a perfect song, the equipment and instruments used did indeed need to be cooled down beforehand for optimal results.

He had initially promised to finish recording in half an hour, but because it was his first time dealing with TV recording and he had to conjure up some visuals on the spot, Li Changlin ended up taking more time than promised, which gave Sheng Minjia the perfect opportunity to catch him in the act.

For this, Li Changlin was at a loss for words.

If the other party was truly only after compensation, he could come up with the 320,000.

But now was not the time for him to speak up. Instead, he could wait and see how Han Zhicheng would handle the situation.

After listening to Sheng Minjia’s accusations, Han Zhicheng’s expression didn’t change, but his eyelids twitched several times.

From that, Li Changlin could guess that the man before him was indeed likely provoked by Sheng Minjia’s words.

Perhaps due to the complicated relationships among the three of them, though anger stirred within him, Han Zhicheng still forced himself to restrain it. He glanced at Li Changlin first and then turned to Xi Yiling. "Yi Ling, how should we address this gentleman? You should at least introduce him to your old classmates."

"Mr. Li is a client of Jiayou Agency. Mr. Li came to the city and suddenly wanted to record a song, so he found our company. Our company’s leadership assigned me to serve Mr. Li. I did call you!" Xi Yiling indeed had called Han Zhicheng when she was in the car.

Plus, she had mentioned that she would bring a client to Zhicheng Recording Studio to record a song.

Upon hearing this, Han Zhicheng suddenly remembered, and his mood instantly improved, with a touch of amicable smile appearing on his face.

"Ah, Mr. Li seems to be a major client for your company, since they even arranged for a great beauty like you to accompany him. It can’t be that your company’s leaders intend for you to engage in ’public relations’ with him!" Initially feeling a touch of disappointment that Li Changlin was just a client of Jiayou Agency, Sheng Minjia’s mind quickly hatched a plan.

In reality, the term ’public relations’ often carried negative connotations.

Hearing this, Han Zhicheng’s face changed subtly, with a dark glint flickering in his eyes.

"Sheng Minjia, don’t beat around the bush. It’s just a matter of using a room you pre-booked. If you’re talking about compensation, let it be. I’ll call the company right away and have the company’s lawyer discuss it with you." Sheng Minjia’s words also reminded Xi Yiling; she knew that if they settled this matter privately, it would be challenging to explain.

After all, with Han Zhicheng caught in the middle, he was in the most difficult position.

Even though Xi Yiling had no ulterior motives regarding Han Zhicheng, she did not want the reputation of Zhicheng Recording Studio to suffer because of this issue.

However, how could Sheng Minjia possibly agree to Xi Yiling’s suggestion? She was intent on causing trouble. If Jiayou Agency took over the matter, it would ultimately go through legal proceedings.

In the end, even if Jiayou Agency could compensate her for some losses, what would she gain?

After all, Sheng Minjia harbored thoughts of revenge against Han Zhicheng and Xi Yiling.

So, she coldly snorted, "Xi Yiling, this is your personal matter, it has nothing to do with your company. If you’re trying to shirk responsibility, then I have no choice but to seek justice through the media."

Saying that, she actually took out her phone, ready to leak the story to several newspapers in the provincial city or other media outlets.

Seeing this turn of events, Han Zhicheng naturally panicked and quickly reached out to block Sheng Minjia’s phone. "Sheng Minjia, please don’t do this, alright? We’re all classmates, you..."

Han Zhicheng didn’t mean anything else, he just thought that since they were all classmates, why couldn’t they discuss things openly.

Furthermore, if Sheng Minjia really wanted compensation, it truly wasn’t a big deal. At worst, he would just waive all the fees on Sheng Minjia’s part.

At this point, Han Zhicheng didn’t realize, nor did he anticipate, that Sheng Minjia had initially directly paid a deposit of thirty-two thousand to Zhicheng Recording Studio.

Even if compensation was to be tenfold, the party seeking it would only need to pay 320,000.

But Xi Yiling had only recently started working and she couldn’t possibly come up with that much money, even if she went so far as to sell everything she owned.
