Chapter 106: Becoming Haggard

“On the account that you’re a beauty, I won’t bother with you today.”

Yan Jinyi waved her hand and yawned without caring about her image. “This is so troublesome, I have to lose an hour of sleep again. If I become haggard-looking in the future, can you afford to take responsibility?”

Yan Jinyi cursed while walking towards the elevator.

“Kid, it’s better to be an honest and upright person, lest you don’t even know how you end up facing failure.”

Tao Wei patted Lin Chenggong’s shoulder and left smugly.

Staring at their backs, Lin Chenggong clenched his fists, his eyes tempestuous.

‘Hmph, let’s see how smug you can be when your film flops!’

Lin Chenggong planned to make the matter get on the hot search list at first, but now that they had evidence against him, Lin Chenggong had no choice but to give up and forget about it.

…

Although both production teams were filming in West City, the exact locations were different. For the next few days, it had been quite peaceful.

However, news about comparisons between ‘Female Fortress Leader’ and ‘Islander’ had been rampant lately and most people thought that ‘Female Fortress Leader’ would definitely be a flop. They even felt sorry for the mysterious Second Young Mistress of the Huo Family.

The week passed quickly. Except for the silly Zhuang Heng who always appeared in various styles and outfits, it was quite enjoyable.

As soon as she got off the plane, Yan Jinyi received a call from Huo Qingyuan.

“Second Sister-in-law, Second Sister-in-law, I’ll be taking my final exams in a few days!”

Looking at the people who were pacing back and forth in the airport, Yan Jinyi said, “Okay.”

“You should be coming home today, right? Third Brother and I miss you so much!”

Yan Jinyi touched her stomach and said, “Yes.”

Huo Qingyuan sounded extremely excited. “Second Sister-in-law, when are you free? You promised me that you’d meet someone I’d like for you to see.”

Frowning a little, Yan Jinyi said, “I’m rushing to have a meal. Let’s talk when I get home later, okay?”

Having had her spirits dampened. Huo Qingyuan immediately said, “Okay…”

Yan Jinyi hung up and thought, ‘What is Huo Qingyuan trying to do?’

After Yan Jinyi got inside the car, Huo Qingyuan sent her another text message.

“Sister-in-law, don’t be so eager to look at Weibo. Third Brother is already handling this matter. I’m waiting for you to come home~”

‘What is Huo Qingyuan getting up to?’

‘Why does she seem to be revealing something that she’s supposed to hide?’

After hearing that, Yan Jinyi began to be curious about what was going on on Weibo.

Yan Jinyi clicked on the icon, looked at her latest private messages which contained a bunch of hateful comments. After cursing them out, she proceeded to look at the hot search list.

‘Tang Qing comments about Second Young Mistress Huo’ was the first topic on the list.

‘Huh?’

‘Who’s Tang Qing?’

‘Oh, I remember now!’

She tapped on it and saw that it was a video of an interview.

The host said, “Mr. Tang, we all know that you recently invested in ‘Islander’, and it just so happens that the Second Young Mistress Huo has also invested in ‘Female Fortress Leader’. Besides, both movies are set to be released on the same date. What is your opinion on this?”

Tang Qing was a daunting person who looked stern and hostile.

He was the CEO of Tang Group and one of the very few people who could compare to Huo Xishen.

Rumor had it that the Tang Family used to be involved in the triads, but they tried their best to clear their name because Tang Qing’s grandfather married his wife.

That resulted in the establishment of the Tang Corporation.

However, no matter how hard they tried, the members of the Tang Family still had a roguish air.

It was especially so for Tang Qing.

In the video, he was crossing one leg over the other with a cigar in his mouth. He remarked conceitedly, “What does a clueless wife of a rich man know about investing?”

“Mr. Tang, what was your reaction when you found out that Mr. Huo was married?”
