Transmigrating as the Younger Sister of a Bigshot with Multiple Identities

Chapter 840: Guess Why You Tell Me Everything?

“After that, I tried a few more times. For example, I secretly asked the teacher for answers during exams. It worked every time!”

“That’s when I confirmed that I really did have superpowers. But they were limited and couldn’t be used often.”

“I’ve never told anyone about this since I was young. I’m afraid I’ll be captured and cut into pieces. This is my sincerity. Please keep it a secret.”

Yan Xi looked at Gu Yang pleadingly.

Gu Yang blinked. “Guess why you told me everything?”

Yan Xi was stunned. Recalling her recent confession, she suddenly felt a chill run down her spine.

She realized belatedly that in front of this sunny and beautiful little fairy, she was the innocent and gullible one.

Yan Xi hesitated, then felt a surge of excitement as if she had found her own kind. “You… you’re Superman too?”

Gu Yang corrected, “This is called being a hypnotist.”

Yan Xi’s hypnosis skills were so weak they couldn’t even be measured using Tally as a unit. They were about one-tenth as powerful as Tong Wan’s.

Tong Wan had recently awakened from her vegetative state.

The last time Yan Xi visited the Xiao family, she learned that Auntie Tong Wan had been an S-grade hypnotist before falling unconscious due to a brain injury. As a result, her abilities had regressed to Class C.

Gu Yang estimated that Yan Xi was likely the weakest Level E hypnotist, only capable of using her abilities for basic truth-telling and not much else.

It was rather underwhelming.

Gu Yang briefly explained the concepts of hypnotists and Mutants to Yan Xi.

Yan Xi was enlightened yet somewhat confused. “So I’m not abnormal, and I’m not Superman.”

Did that mean she no longer had to worry about being captured and dissected?

Gu Yang cautioned Yan Xi, the untamed Mutant, “But don’t misuse your hypnotic powers. It can invade people’s privacy. Just because they don’t remember doesn’t mean they can’t catch you. The Mutant Department will handle it.”

Yan Xi’s eyes lit up. “There’s a Mutant Department? Can I join?”

Gu Yang shook her head. “Not yet. Your abilities are too weak.”

Yan Xi felt a pang of disappointment.

“I want to gather this evidence of dirt. How can I assist you?”

Gu Yang’s words brought Yan Xi back to reality.

She wasn’t a superhero capable of saving the world; right now, she couldn’t even save herself.

Yan Xi composed herself and said firmly, “I want Lawyer Qiu to represent me in a lawsuit to terminate my contract with Tiansheng Media.”

“And once the contract is terminated, I want to join Zhaofeng Entertainment. I need a good manager, preferably a top-tier one. That’s all.”

Later, she learned that the exorbitant penalty clause in her contract was illegal. Penalties for breach of contract weren’t arbitrary; there were legal principles governing them.

She and her mother had suffered because of their lack of education and ignorance of the law.

By suing the company, she could terminate the contract without paying the penalty. She didn’t trust other lawyers, but she believed in Qiu Baizhou, renowned as the eternal beacon of the legal world.

If Gu Yang could help her secure his assistance, not only would she avoid paying Tiansheng Media five million yuan for breach of contract, but she might also receive compensation for the lost years of her youth!

She invited Lawyer Qiu and Zhaofeng Entertainment to discuss her plans. Yan Xi didn’t actually hold high hopes for landing a top-tier manager, but negotiations required starting high to allow room for bargaining with Gu Yang.

To her surprise, Gu Yang showed no inclination to negotiate. She simply nodded. “Alright, I’ll hire Lawyer Qiu for you and arrange for a top manager. Just send me all the details.”

Gu Yang could discern that Yan Xi was following Qiao Xuan’s strategy.

Back then, Qiao Xuan had also advised Yan Xi to engage a lawyer to terminate her contract and then switch companies.

However, Gu Yang recognized that Yan Xi had made a genuine sacrifice. Merely introducing a lawyer wouldn’t suffice; she needed to secure Qiu Baizhou’s involvement.

As for agreeing to find a top manager for Yan Xi, it was because Gu Yang saw her potential.

Her singing and dancing skills were commendable. While Yan Xi had initially relied on popularity from the girl group’s talent show appearances, sustaining that popularity required genuine talent.

Moreover, Yan Xi had invested years of effort into her career. Gu Yang felt compelled to assist her in this critical transition.
