At Situ Jin’s villa.

Tang Li did not need to give Situ Jin acupuncture treatment today. The moment she arrived, she entered the herb room.

There were several medicine pots here, and the herbs in each pot were different. Moreover, what should be added at a specific time on each pot was different too.

While waiting, she took out her phone and started playing.

Expectedly, there were more than ten messages from Tang Zitong.

Tang Zitong, “Fourth Sister, two people came to our store today. They said they were music trainers from the Zhang family. The two of them even brought contracts!”

Tang Zitong, “Fourth Sister! Fourth Sister! These two are so professional. I can’t understand anything they say. However, one of them said that they want to talk about salary first, and the other doesn’t look like he wants to be here at all. Do you think we should keep them here?”

The next few comments were all criticizing the two music trainers, saying that she felt that they were very unwilling to come to her place.

Tang Li swiped to the last two ones.

Tang Zitong, “Fourth Sister, look at your phone. These two people are too difficult to deal with. I don’t think I can keep them.”

Tang Zitong, “I hope you can see the message I sent you. It’s very urgent. I don’t think I can tolerate them anymore.”

After checking the messages, Tang Li called her.

Tang Zitong heaved a sigh of relief when she received the call. “Fourth Sister, you finally saw the message I sent you.”

Tang Li nodded and asked, “Are those two still there?”

“They’re here. I was just about to make tea for them.”

“Turn on the video. I’ll talk to them in person.” She planned to see their faces.

“Sure.”

The two of them then switched to video call.

Tang Zitong pointed Tang Li at the two people sitting there.

These two people were about 35 years old. One of them was wearing a suit and looked angry. It was obvious that he was conceited and was very against coming here.

The other one had a stubble and looked condescending.

The two of them also looked at Tang Li in the video, but they did not greet her.

Tang Li did not mind and introduced herself first. “My name is Tang Li. I asked Mr. Zhang for you guys. Let’s talk about the pay. If you’re satisfied, you can stay. If you’re not satisfied, you can leave.”

“Leave? We came with a contract.” The man in the suit sounded unfriendly. “If Miss Tang can let me return to the Zhang family, I won’t stay a moment longer. I’ll leave immediately.”

“How can you do this? My Second Sister only borrowed you from Mr. Zhang. What has it got to do with her whether you stay or leave?”

“Borrow? I’ve already brought the contract over. What a joke.” If not for the fact that he drew her name, he wouldn’t be here in the first place.

“If you want to go back, you can leave now.” Tang Li looked at the man in the suit and said calmly, “But before you go, you can take a look at the people you’re going to train.”

At this point, Tang Li called Tang Zitong, “Second Sister, is Yu Meng here?”

“She’s here.”

“Take the two of them to Yu Meng’s room and get her to sing a song for them.”

Although the two men were confused, they still followed Tang Zitong to the backyard.

Tang Zitong kept her phone pointed at the two of them.

Tang Li could see their expressions.

When they arrived at Yu Meng’s room, Tang Zitong didn’t go in. She called her through the door, “Yu Meng, Fourth Sister is video calling me. She wants to hear you sing. Sing a song.”

Although Yu Meng’s voice was not loud, she sounded very happy. “Alright.”

Then came her especially lively singing.

The two middle-aged men standing outside listened attentively.

After Yu Meng finished singing, the man in a suit said impolitely, “The pitch is not accurate, the high and low notes are stiff, and they keep running away. To train her, it’ll take at least a year.”

If he was to train people in such a small studio, he’d definitely be unhappy.

At that moment, Tang Li added, “The person inside is very shy and afraid of meeting strangers.”

“She wants to be a singer but is afraid of meeting strangers!” The man in a suit was in disbelief. “Then why is she singing at all?”

“So you mean you don’t want to stay here?”

“If Miss Tang can let me go back.” Yang Bo felt that he had made his stance obvious.

Tang Li nodded. “Sure.”

Then, he looked at the man with stubble.

The man with stubble, on the other hand, looked like he didn’t care. “I can’t stay in the Zhang family anymore anyway. If you want me to stay, I can teach the girl inside. However, I have to remind you that I’ve offended someone. If that person finds out that I’m here, you might suffer too.”

“Who did you offend?” Tang Li asked.

“A movie queen. At that time, the company asked me to train her. I said a few harsh words and offended her.”

“Tell me the truth.”

“I offended the sugar daddy behind the movie queen.”

“Whom?”

“Someone from the Situ family.”

Tang Li nodded. “Alright, I understand. If you’re willing to stay, I’ll help you settle this.”

Lu Cong was a little surprised. “Can you really help me?”

“If you believe I can help you, you can stay.”

Tang Li did not plan to explain much. She wanted those who were willing to stay, and she would not force those who were not.

Lu Cong nodded. “Then I’ll stay.” Because he was too strict with the movie queen, he was removed from the music industry. He was extremely indignant. Now that he had a chance to turn the tables, he wanted to try, no matter the chance.

Although the song the girl sang was not professional at all, her voice stimulated his soul. He wanted to nurture such a good seedling.

Tang Li first called Mr. Zhang and said that she would only keep one. After Mr. Zhang agreed, Yang Po really left.

Looking at the music trainer who left just like that, Tang Zitong asked Tang Li, “Fourth Sister, did you really let him go?”

“Well, you don’t have to ask those who don’t want to stay.”

Only then did Tang Li tell Lu Cong the pay. “Your salary will be based on the industry’s standard salary, but in the future, when you nurture Yu Meng, you will get one percent of her income. Do you have any objections?”

“No.” Lu Cong was a top music trainer. What he cared about was whether he could nurture talents. To him, money wasn’t the most important thing.

Tang Li was also very satisfied with his attitude, so she talked to him about the details of his job and added, “Don’t worry, I’ll help you settle this matter.”
