Hong Hai Capital wasn’t without its share of hugely controversial tabloid news.
Once, Xu Haicong forcibly sexually assaulted a strong-willed woman, leading her to commit suicide by throwing herself into a lake. The act even prompted her parents to hang protest banners at the company building’s entrance.
That incident caused a far greater commotion than Yuan Chong’s current predicant.
In the end, it was all swept under the rug.
Given Hong Hai Capital’s connections and influence in Capital City, with one word from them and a few greased palms, who would risk offending Hong Hai to speak up for the poor?
In so places, power reigns supre. Fairness, justice, and even the concepts of right and wrong hardly matter.
Because of these past experiences and their powerful PR team, Yuan Chong imdiately sensed a crisis the mont this issue was widely reported.
Anything this out of the ordinary is surely a bad sign.
Is soone trying to target us? Yuan Chong muttered under his breath.
Xu Haicong was silent for a long mont before he let out a weak, weary statent, "I imdiately instructed my people to handle it, to get the articles retracted. I was hoping to nip the unfavorable news in the bud before it could explode."
"Unfortunately, they ca back empty-handed."
Yuan Chong was speechless.
Who in Capital City has the clout to overshadow Hong Hai Capital?
"What do we do now?" Yuan Chong didn’t know how to handle the situation. He had never encountered anything like it and had no experience.
"I’m heading to Hangcheng City right away."
Yuan Chong’s mind went blank.
It seed his ultimate boss was now getting involved.
The scandal involving Su Xiyang had beco too entangled. It seed they needed to investigate its source to determine whether Hong Hai Capital had offended soone in Capital City, making this situation unrelated to Su Xiyang after all.
Or was Su Xiyang the origin of it all?
"After I resolve this, I’ll deal with you," Xu Haicong growled. "You screwed up such a small matter, Yuan Chong! You’re becoming more useless by the day. Fuck! You’re better at making sses than fixing them!"
Xu Haicong cursed, wishing that the first thing he could do upon arriving in Hangcheng City was flay Yuan Chong alive.
Today, Su Xiyang was in a good mood. She left a kiss on Shen Fanyun’s forehead before heading off to work.
She had a habit of listening to the news while driving to the office every day, and she turned it on as usual.
"Breaking news! The Hong Hai Capital scandal has been exposed, with various chat logs leaked," a calm female voice announced over the broadcast. "The incident involves one of Hong Hai Capital’s executives, Yuan Chong. It’s uncertain how the company will handle this."
Su Xiyang blinked. Yuan Chong? Chat logs leaked?
Has that fat-headed bastard finally gotten his couppance? Su Xiyang couldn’t contain her joy and excitent.
The first thing she did upon arriving at the office was turn on the news.
Sure enough, the repulsive, vile face of Yuan Chong dominated the headlines. Moreover, because the case involved coercing won, he had beco a public pariah, hated by all.
Has this provoked public outrage?
The more Su Xiyang read, the more delighted she beca. She wanted to jump up and dance in celebration. The past few days had been extrely frustrating, and even beating up Yuan Chong hadn’t been satisfying enough. Now, with his reputation in tatters, the entire Hong Hai Capital had beco a target of public disdain.
Su Xiyang finally felt a sense of relief.
Scum like him and a company with no integrity or morals deserved to go bankrupt and be tossed onto the trash heap.
Was it Fanyun’s doing? Su Xiyang murmured to herself, her cheeks flushing.
After all, Shen Fanyun had reminded her yesterday to just sit back and enjoy the show today.
Isn’t this the show?
What is this guy’s background? How can he stomp all over a company as big as Hong Hai Capital whenever he wants? Su Xiyang muttered under her breath.
She used to be neither curious nor interested in Shen Fanyun’s past. But as their relationship and intimacy grew, she found herself paying more and more attention to him, caring more and more about him.
If any other woman got intentionally too close to Shen Fanyun, she would feel an unreasonable surge of anger and jealousy. She didn’t want anyone else getting their hands on him!
Is this love?
Su Xiyang shook her head. She didn’t understand. But having such a man to rely on gave her an incredible sense of security.
Su Xiyang wished she could march right back ho and reward Shen Fanyun properly. No, she could reward him ten tis over! But... wouldn’t that be a bit too forward?
Lost in thought, she received a call from an unfamiliar number. She was about to hang up, but the caller was persistent, buzzing her phone relentlessly.
"Hello? Who is this?" Su Xiyang answered.
"Su Xiyang, are you trying to get yourself killed? How dare you provoke Hong Hai Capital? Don’t you know they’re ruthless characters who will devour you whole?"
"I’m advising you to be smart and apologize imdiately. If you stir up a huge ss, not even the heavens can save you."
"And I’m telling you, one of Hong Hai Capital’s big bosses, Xu Haicong, has personally co to Hangcheng City. Just you wait!"
It was the voice of Wang Qing, the so-called mother who had given birth to her only to rcilessly abandon her for Capital City. She had a real penchant for adopting a scolding tone to display her dominance and project a powerful aura.
Su Xiyang had guessed the call would be malicious, but she hadn’t expected it to be from Wang Qing. She chided herself for her curiosity. Why was she even bothering to bicker with this woman?
"First, don’t think for a second I don’t know that you instigated Hong Hai Capital to set up. Now that there’s trouble, they have only themselves to bla."
"Second, save it. I don’t need your concern, nor are you qualified to give it!"
"Third, if you ever plot against again, don’t bla for turning on you. I’m no pushover. You’d better think long and hard about whether you can afford to provoke . The fate of Hong Hai Capital should serve as a cautionary tale!"
After her swift rebuke, Su Xiyang snapped the phone shut. Wasting ti on such a woman was a betrayal of her own life. Even another mont of conversation made Su Xiyang feel a deep, physical revulsion.
Xu Haicong? Su Xiyang pondered after she cald down.
She was not unfamiliar with the na. He was indeed one of the big bosses of Hong Hai Capital, a renowned and powerful figure in Capital City.
He personally ca to Hangcheng City? To cause trouble for ?
Hong Hai Capital really is a persistent nuisance. They were the ones who secretly conspired against , yet now that their plot has been exposed, they have the audacity to co marching here.
In the past, she certainly would have panicked. She would have been at a loss, trying to use every connection and ans at her disposal to appease them and seek peace at any cost.
But now? She was more confident than ever.
"With Fanyun here, I don’t care if Xu Haicong is so big boss. Even the mightiest of kings would have to bow his head. We’ll just wait and see."
Once a woman falls head over heels, she develops an irrational confidence in and adoration for the man she loves, believing him to be invincible and capable of anything.
Fortunately for her, Shen Fanyun really did have that kind of power.
