Chapter 236 Re-signing the Contract
"Mr. Liang, is the one who acquired SQ?"
More surprising to Mu Xiaoyu than seeing Liang Qiao here was his acquisition of SQ. At least from what she knew before, the Ge family didn't seem to be involved in this area.
As if sensing Mu Xiaoyu's confusion, Liang Qiao gave Mu Xiaoyu a gentle smile and said, "I acquired it. After seeing Mrs. Li's comics last time, I became interested in this field, and after doing some research, I acquired this comic book company."
Mu Xiaoyu remained silent this time. Liang Qiao seemed a bit too casual. No matter how much he liked it, Liang Qiao was just an outsider in this regard. They were businessmen, shouldn't they understand things thoroughly before doing anything?
Whether it's Liangqiao's acquisition or not, at least Mu Xiaoyu won't have to worry too much about other people disliking her comics and interfering.
Thinking of this, Mu Xiaoyu reached out her hand to Liang Qiao and said with a smile, "In that case, we can be considered colleagues from now on."
Upon hearing this, Liang Qiao lowered his eyes and glanced at the hand extended in front of him. A mysterious look flashed in his seemingly gentle eyes at that moment.
Seeing that he remained silent for a long time, Mu Xiaoyu thought that Liang Qiao was unhappy, so she was about to pull her hand away when Liang Qiao suddenly grabbed her hand again.
"Then it will be a pleasure to cooperate with you from now on."
Mu Xiaoyu was taken aback upon hearing this, feeling that something was amiss. However, Liang Qiao seemed no different from usual, so she stopped thinking about it, chatted with him for a few more minutes, and then left.
She had initially thought that her relationship with Liang Qiao was merely a casual acquaintance, but now it seemed that they would have more and more contact in the future. So, as soon as Li Chenxu returned that evening, Mu Xiaoyu immediately told him about it, and also mentioned the person she had met that day who looked very much like Li Chenxu.
"Do you think this Mr. Liang might have a brother or something? When I first met that person today, I didn't realize it at first, but now that I think about it, the two of them really do look alike..."
Mu Xiaoyu was nestled in Li Chenxu's arms, searching for information about SQ online while muttering to Li Chenxu.
Upon hearing this, Li Chenxu glanced at the information on Mu Xiaoyu's screen. His deep eyes flashed with unpredictable emotions, and it was unclear what he was thinking. After a while, he slowly spoke.
“I investigated Liang Qiao before, and he doesn’t have any siblings.”
Furthermore, what Li Chenxu didn't tell Mu Xiaoyu was that Liang Qiao not only had no siblings, but also no family at all; the entire investigation revolved around Ge Yun alone. More importantly, there was no information about Liang Qiao available before.
Li Chenxu's words didn't catch Mu Xiaoyu's attention; she had only said it casually. After all, there are just too many people in this world who look alike.
The day after meeting Liang Qiao, the comic book company called again. Because the comic book company had been acquired, many things had changed, so the contract that Mu Xiaoyu had previously signed with the comic book company would also be affected, and a new one had to be signed.
After learning that Liang Qiao was the one who acquired the comic book company, Mu Xiaoyu felt much more at ease. So when she received the news from the comic book company, Mu Xiaoyu did not hesitate and went directly to the comic book company after agreeing to the deal.
When she arrived, Liang Qiao wasn't at the comic book store. It made sense, since Liang Qiao and Ge Yun were a couple, so even if Liang Qiao was in business, his focus wouldn't be on a small comic book store.
"This is the newly drafted contract. Mrs. Li, please take a look and see if you have any comments. If not, just sign your name in the corner."
Xu Shu wasn't at the comic book store today either. The person in charge of signing the contract with Mu Xiaoyu was a new employee whom Mu Xiaoyu didn't recognize. However, based on her trust in Liang Qiao and the comic book store, Mu Xiaoyu only glanced at the contract and didn't look at the rest much.
Is that all?
After signing the contract, Mu Xiaoyu handed it to the person in front of her and asked a question.
Upon hearing this, the man glanced at Mu Xiaoyu, then immediately lowered his eyes and said in a low voice, "It's nothing else. If Mrs. Li has anything to do, she can leave now."
Mu Xiaoyu was fine, but she had arranged to have afternoon tea with Bai Luo at 3 pm. There was still a little time before that time, but a large number of the employees at SQ had changed, and she didn't recognize many of them. There was nothing she could do there, so Mu Xiaoyu didn't say anything more, said goodbye to the employee who signed the contract, and left.
However, just as she reached the door, the man suddenly called out to her.
"Mrs. Li!"
"What's wrong? Is there anything else you haven't finished taking care of?"
Mu Xiaoyu stopped and turned around to look at the person in front of her with a puzzled expression.
The man's face showed a mixture of conflict and pain, and his gaze toward Mu Xiaoyu was hesitant.
Mu Xiaoyu sensed something was wrong. After hesitating for a few seconds, she walked up to the man and cautiously asked, "Is there a problem with the cooperation?"
The man shook his head, looked at Mu Xiaoyu in front of him, and finally seemed to have made a decision, his face showing a bit of a do-or-die determination: "Mrs. Li, how about I make you a new copy of the contract, so you can take a closer look and decide whether to sign it or not..."
He paused for a moment, then added, "I'm a fan of your books; I've liked them for years."
If Mu Xiaoyu still doesn't understand after all this, then she's truly hopelessly stupid.
She nodded, looked at the man in front of her who looked several years younger than her, and said with a slight smile, "Okay, thank you for your hard work."
Seeing him nod, the man immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He glanced nervously towards the door, and only after seeing no one appear did he hand over the previously signed contract to Mu Xiaoyu, and quickly reprinted a copy for himself.
Mu Xiaoyu sat down and carefully read the contents of the contract.
In the past, when she collaborated with new studios, she would carefully read through the contract. However, she later found that the contents of the contracts were basically the same. So, she only looked at the terms agreed upon with the studios and didn't look at the rest.
But now it seems that this is not a good habit...
Mu Xiaoyu frowned as she looked at the contract in her hand. It was a thick stack, at least twenty or thirty pages long. There was no way she could finish reading it in a short time.
