Chapter 268: Chapter 268: 237, Give Him a Green Hat (Vote for Monthly Ticket)

“`

“Are you talking about Jiangcheng Newspaper Group?”

Yang Hao mentioned a media company, and Wang Jingru thought he was referring to Jiangcheng Newspaper Group.

“To be precise, it is a film and television media company. Its main business right now is movie and television program production and distribution,”

Yang Hao explained.

“You have a film and television company, too?”

Wang Jingru was outright stunned. Having worked in the film industry for more than a decade, she knew very well how much it cost to operate, and it was not something the average person could afford to do.

“Do you know about Tianmei Media?” Yang Hao casually asked.

“You’re the new owner of Tianmei Media??”

Wang Jingru’s mouth dropped open in shock, her eyes widening. The biggest news in the entertainment industry these past few days had been Tianmei Media changing hands.

The Chen Brothers had sold their entire 80% stake to a mysterious tycoon!

Industry insiders were all still guessing who this mysterious magnate was, and yet, Wang Jingru was meeting the person himself right here.

What’s more astonishing was that this mysterious tycoon was her “brother-in-law”!

“Did the change of ownership at Tianmei make it to Capital City?” Yang Hao asked with curiosity.

“Not just Capital City, it has spread throughout the entire circle.”

Wang Jingru replied, and couldn’t help sizing up Yang Hao again—his aura seemed even more impressive now.

Although Jiangcheng Newspaper Group had official backing, even with its recent social media fame, its market value was barely at the one-billion mark.

But Tianmei Media’s market value was around seventy to eighty billion, and at its peak, it even broke a hundred billion!

Plus, the influence of the two was not on the same level; prior to social media, Jiangcheng Newspaper Group’s influence was really limited to the Jiangcheng area, but Tianmei Media is a well-known large company nationwide with many popular film and television productions and a high status in the entertainment circle.@@novelbin@@

Wang Xueru had only just found out that her man also owned a film and television company, and from her sister’s tone, it seemed to be a very large one at that. Right now, besides shock, all she felt was relief.

Finding such an excellent man by chance, although initially she hadn’t been after money, there’s no one who doesn’t like money.

Because of Yang Hao’s presence, she had achieved financial independence and didn’t need to run around for a living, even with a child in tow; she could just do whatever she wanted every day.

And right now, Wang Xueru’s biggest wish was to take advantage of her youth and have a child for Yang, which would make her life complete.

As for status, she did not dare to think about it, nor did she care—being divorced, whether or not she was married really didn’t matter to her.

“If I come back to Jiangcheng, can I really work at Tianmei?”

Wang Jingru looked at Yang Hao and asked seriously, her cheeks were flushed from the alcohol she had drunk.

“Of course!”

“You know I’ve just acquired Tianmei, and I need my own people,”

Yang Hao nodded solemnly.

However, the words “my own people” struck a chord in this beautiful, mature woman’s somewhat empty heart.

He considers me one of his own!

Even if it was for the sake of his sister-in-law.

But still, the term “my own people” always sounds warm. Her gaze subconsciously glanced at her husband, Sun Jixing, who was laughing and playing dice with her younger sister, Fang Yan, with a somewhat mischievous look in his eyes.

He wouldn’t go after relatives, would he?

Wang Jingru unconsciously furrowed her brows.

“Sis, if you come back to Jiangcheng, it’s ok for you to open a coffee shop with me,”

Her younger sister Wang Xueru brought Wang Jingru’s thoughts back.

“`

“Hmm, if that day really comes, I will consider it…” At that moment, Wang Jingru certainly hadn’t made up her mind.

Slap!

As the sisters were talking, a crisp sound of a slap suddenly resonated from nearby.

Then they saw Fang Yan stand up from the sofa, pointing at Sun Jixing and scolding, “Why did you touch my thigh?”

“Are you sick?!”

Fang Yan glared at him with cold eyes, her ample chest heaving intensely due to her anger.

Originally, someone in the room was singing, so not everyone heard Fang Yan’s scolding, only those who were relatively close did.

Among them was Wang Hong’e. Upon hearing that her daughter was aggrieved, she immediately paused the music in the room.

“Hong’e, what are you doing?”

Fang Lelin, who was in high spirits singing, looked at his wife with a puzzled face.

“What am I doing?”

“Your daughter is being bullied!”

Wang Hong’e glared fiercely at Fang Lelin, then turned to Sun Jixing and berated, “Jixing, you’re her brother-in-law after all, how could you do something like this!”

“Taking advantage of your own sister-in-law, right?!”

“This…”

“I didn’t!”

Sun Jixing quickly denied it, but his eyes were constantly dodging, clearly showing his guilt.

Fang Yan was wearing a short one-piece dress today, and sitting on the sofa, most of her long, white legs were exposed and rather eye-catching.

Moreover, Sun Jixing had drunk quite a bit, and was already slightly intoxicated. The more he looked at those legs, the more itchy his heart became, and he couldn’t resist touching them, saying, “Yanyan, just leave your job matters to your brother-in-law!”

He thought that by using a job as a bargaining chip, the inexperienced Fang Yan would not make a fuss. Unexpectedly, her reaction was so fierce.

She directly slapped him, and it was a forceful one; his cheek still stung.

“What happened?”

Wang Changda, who was still holding a microphone, hurried over.

“Elder Brother, deal with your son-in-law; he’s utterly shameless!”

“He even dared to bully our Yanyan!”

Wang Hong’e said indignantly.

Upon hearing this, Wang Changda instantly frowned. He glanced at his son-in-law Sun Jixing and then at Fang Yan, asking, “Yanyan, tell me what happened.”

“Elder Sister’s Husband and I were playing dice, and he suddenly said he’d take care of my job matters, then he reached out and touched my thigh…”

Fang Yan bit her lip, and whether she was acting or genuinely in distress, tears even began to well up in her eyes.

“Dad, I didn’t touch her on purpose!”

“Yanyan is Jingru’s sister, how could I intentionally take advantage of her!”

Sun Jixing quickly made excuses; this was something he could never admit to.

Luckily, the lighting in the room was dim, everyone was talking, and there probably weren’t any witnesses.

“You clearly did it on purpose!”

“Disgusting!”

Fang Yan cursed furiously.

“Yanyan, you misunderstood, I really didn’t do it on purpose,” he said.

“And you were drinking, so there might have been a perceptual mistake…” Sun Jixing continued to make excuses for himself.

“I didn’t drink that much, I can still tell if it was intentional!”

Fang Yan turned her head again towards Wang Jingru, “Elder Sister, are you going to do something about this or not!”

Her own husband had done something like this, and all Wang Jingru wanted to do now was to find a crack in the ground to crawl into, knowing the kind of person her husband was, it was highly likely that what Fang Yan said was true.

But right now, she didn’t know what to say either, it was too embarrassing!

“Dad, Jingru, Yanyan, I really didn’t do it on purpose.”

“I swear on my integrity!!”

Sun Jixing raised his left hand and made an oath-like gesture.

“Okay, I believe you!”

Wang Changda waved his hand and then said with a stern face, “Let’s call it a day, everyone’s had too much to drink.”

“Yeah, everyone should go back and rest early, it’s getting late!”

Yang Hao echoed the sentiment, knowing the old man’s intentions well. As they say, family scandals should not be aired in public, and this situation was not suitable to be delved into further, especially since Wang Changda’s friends and colleagues were present; continuing the argument would only lead to the Wang Family’s loss of face.

“Elder Brother…”

Wang Hong’e was the type who could argue a point even when in the wrong, let alone now that she had the reason to do so, she didn’t want to let it go just yet.

Just as she started to speak, Wang Changda interrupted her, “We’ll talk about it tomorrow, let it be for today!”

Actually, everyone had enjoyed themselves quite a lot at the gathering, it was just that the way things had ended had put Wang Changda in a sour mood.

After getting onto the business van arranged by Huang Qing, Wang Changda couldn’t help but point at Sun Jixing and scold, “You’ve made me lose all face!”

“Fang Yan is Jingru’s younger sister, and over a decade younger than you, how could you even bring yourself to make a move!!”

“Dad, I really didn’t mean to do it.”

Sun Jixing defended himself again, but his defense was weak and ineffective.

“Whether it was intentional or not, you know best in your heart.”

“Don’t explain it to me, explain it to Jingru!”

Having said that, Wang Changda leaned back to rest with his eyes closed.

At this moment, Wang Jingru wasn’t in the van. She normally lived at her parents’ house, but after the incident, she had made the excuse of wanting to chat with her sister and got directly into the van that was taking Wang Xueru.

Binjiang Left Bank.

The house that Wang Xueru had just bought a few days ago, at Yang Hao’s urging.

This beautiful young woman had a simple thought process; the house was close to Star Cloud Bay, however, she wasn’t aware that Li Manni was also living in the same complex.

But the apartment Li Manni lived in was a 428 square meters one, while the one Wang Xueru bought was 286 square meters.

Right now, she was leading her third uncle’s family as well as her elder sister, Wang Jingru, into this large flat that was 286 square meters.

Uncle Wang Changsheng and Aunt Liu Zhaoxia only knew that their daughter had always been living with their niece, Wang Xueru, but they couldn’t have imagined that it was such a luxurious mansion.

“This house is too extravagant!”

“Xueru, how much did this house cost you?”

Aunt Liu Zhaoxia asked curiously, while expressing her amazement.

“Over fifteen million.”

“But I don’t have that much money, the house was bought for me by Brother Yang.”

Wang Xueru answered truthfully.

“Ah?”

“Fifteen million???”

Wang Changsheng and Liu Zhaoxia glanced at each other, both visibly shocked.

Not only were the two people from a small city shocked, but even Wang Jingru who had come back from Capital City was stunned.

She truly hadn’t expected her sister to have moved into such a mansion in just a few months.

What made it all the more significant was that the house was a gift from her “Brother-in-law”.

“Is the property deed in your name?”

Wang Jingru found the matter too incredible and had to ask a critical question.

“Mhm.”

“Brother Yang has never been one to fuss over whose name is on the property, and the car he gave Dad today is also in my name.”

Wang Xueru gloated in her reply.

Though they were sisters, there was inevitably some comparison in their minds. When she had gotten divorced, her elder sister had seemed to have a happy family, and she always felt somewhat inferior.

But now the tables had turned. In comparison, it seemed she was living much better than her elder sister, without the mess of a marriage and free from care.

“Mr. Yang really is very generous.”

“Xueru, how did you both meet?”

Wang Jingru asked curiously again.

“Uh, that…”

Wang Xueru laughed awkwardly, “It was quite a fortuitous chance meeting.”

She couldn’t exactly tell her sister that it was she who had seduced him, initially aiming to get back at her ex-husband by calling him over to fix the kitchen hood.

As a result, it unexpectedly led to a marriage that would change her life.

The scenario from the countless women’s fantasies, “Domineering CEO’s Love for the Divorcee,” had become a reality for her!

“You met after the divorce, right?” Wang Jingru asked in a lower voice.

“Yeah, I’m not the kind of person to cheat during marriage.”

Wang Xueru nodded her head, strictly speaking, she wasn’t divorced when she met Yang Hao, but her marriage was already over in all but name.

“Xueru, you’re really lucky.”

“It seems Mr. Yang is a very nice person!” Wang Jingru said with evident envy and then whispered, “Xueru, I suddenly have the urge to get back at Sun Jixing. I don’t know if it’s right to feel this way, but I am really angry!”

“If it were just cheating, I could live with it, but he didn’t even spare Yanyan. I can’t tolerate it anymore, I’ll divorce him once I’m back in Capital City!”

“But before the divorce, I want to give him a taste of his own medicine and serve him a taste of betrayal, let him wear a green hat!!”

After hearing her sister’s words, Wang Xueru was momentarily startled, thinking to herself: We really are sisters, our thoughts are so alike!

“Sister, you already have someone in mind, right?”

Wang Xueru asked with a smile.

“Not yet.”

Wang Jingru shook her head, but upon hearing the question, the image of the tall and handsome “Brother-in-law” involuntarily came to mind.

He was her sister’s boyfriend, and she couldn’t stoop to Sun Jixing’s level of lacking any bottom line!

Seeing her thoughts drifting, Wang Jingru quickly cautioned herself internally and forcefully dispelled the image.
