Li Hanchen dropped the subject and started the car engine.
Perhaps Li An detected Li Hanchen softening up on him, so he kept testing Li Hanchen’s boundaries and got nosy about Li Hanchen. He clearly forgot about working on his terrible grades.
He secretly glanced at Li Hanchen. “When are you and Sis-in-Law going to move into the same room?”
Ever since Mu Sheng married Li Hanchen a year ago, they had lived in separate rooms. In the past, they had no feelings for each other, so it made sense. However, he could clearly sense how good his older brother was to Mu Sheng. Why had they not moved in together yet?
Li Hanchen frowned slightly when he heard what Li An said. “Last tenth in class.”
“Huh?” Li An automatically felt confused. Moments later, he realized Li Hanchen was referring to his results, and he promptly slumped his head and covered his chest. “I feel a little carsick, so I need to rest.”
Li An turned his head to the side and closed his eyes as he pretended to rest.
Li Hanchen looked straight ahead. “I expect a thousand-word review on your actions.”
Li An was dumbstruck.
Li An instantly stopped pretending to rest and opened his eyes. It killed him to do Math and he was bad at composition. Telling him to write a thousand-word review was as good as giving him a death sentence.
“Can I just do half? Will 500 words do?” Li An attempted to put up a struggle.
The moment Li An looked at Li Hanchen’s cool unwavering profile, he just knew it was futile. He could only quietly accept the facts.
Li An sighed as he looked out the window. “Do you think Mom used up all the good DNA when she gave birth to you? That must be why I ended up so stupid.”
Li Hanchen did not answer. Li An just knew his older brother would ignore him. He quietly thought about the gulf between their IQ levels and felt worried.

At Talent Scout Entertainment’s meeting room.
The last time Mu Sheng visited, Li Wei went for the meeting with dozens of people to intimidate her.
This time, only Mu Sheng and Li Wei were present for the meeting. Li Wei evaded eye contact with Mu Sheng as his brows sweated.
“Mu Sheng, allow me to be candid. How did you come to know of those numbers?”
“Where is my termination contract and compensation?” Mu Sheng sat in the chair calmly without answering Li Wei’s question.
Li Wei placed the document in his hand before Mu Sheng. “This contract is for you. We acknowledge violating the contract and will compensate you accordingly.”
Mu Sheng flipped through the document. The original owner of the body did not know much about the law and Yang Tao deliberately kept information from her. Even if the company violated the agreement, Mu Sheng would only walk away with hundreds of thousands in compensation.
Mu Sheng was not fussy about the sum. She closed the document and raised her brows slightly. “Someone in the company was talking about the number and I happened to overhear it. I was simply trying to pull a fast one on you. I did not expect you to take it so seriously.”
“You!” Li Wei’s eyes instantly opened wide as he pondered on the veracity of Mu Sheng’s words.
A moment later, Li Wei bought what she said. Everyone in the company knew how dumb Mu Sheng was. If Mu Sheng was able to single-handedly obtain such a huge secret, she would not have ended up as such a failure in the entertainment industry.
Was there a traitor in the company? Who was it?
Mu Sheng had already caught on to Li Wei’s suspicions. She stood up and prepared to leave the conference room.
After eliminating Mu Sheng as a possible traitor, Li Wei was no longer afraid of her. He laughed coldly, “Mu Sheng, I’d like to see who else would dare to sign you as their celebrity after leaving us. Don’t come begging for us to take you back.”
