Su Cheng simply refused to believe such nonsense.
After hanging up, he called Manager Wang and Manager Chen respectively.
Unexpectedly, he hit a wall at every turn.
In the end, Su Cheng used his personal connections and called Fu Zuo, the top executive at Weibo. He thought that by leveraging the Su Family’s influence, he could always get things done.
Who knew that Fu Zuo would be so incorruptible? "I’m sorry, Young Master Su, Weibo is a fair and just platform. Trending topics are ranked based on popularity. Our Weibo company internally never accepts any improper operations like removing trending topics."
Su Cheng: "......"
Are you trying to fool a three-year-old?!
The Su Family had deep involvent in the film and entertainnt sector. The Su Entertainnt Group held a leading position in A Country’s entertainnt industry, having built a vast entertainnt empire. Its film companies, talent agencies, and dia companies spent a fortune on trending topics every year. Now the head of Weibo was telling him there were no irregular operations?
Fuck! This is absolutely my most frustrating day!
On the other side, as soon as Fu Zuo hung up with Su Cheng, he sent a WeChat ssage to Mo Yinhe: "Nephew, so guy nad Su Cheng is kicking up a fuss, trying to get your trending topic taken down. But your Uncle Fu has firmly refused him."
Mo Yinhe stared at the WeChat dialog box, his gaze fixed on the na Su Cheng. Who is this blind fool?
Outside the funeral ho’s morial hall, Su Cheng inexplicably shivered.
That feeling of being struck by lightning... Could it be because the funeral ho is too eerie?
Having failed to accomplish his task and losing considerable face, Su Cheng now felt creeped out and utterly miserable.
"Heilian, you see, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, but the funeral ho’s yin energy is too strong; it’s affecting !"
Si Mingjing likely understood. "Forget it. I overestimated your abilities."
"!!!!"
Now *that* was sothing Su Cheng didn’t like to hear!
What does she an, she overestimated his abilities? He, Su Cheng, had always been a force to be reckoned with in the Imperial Capital of A Country! Today was just an anomaly, okay?!
At this mont, Song Tengfei and Huo Manlou walked out of the lounge. Song Tengfei’s expression was noticeably calr; he was no longer seething with repressed anger as before.
Si Mingjing instantly understood. Those two must have struck a deal, sothing along the lines of "there’s always tomorrow."
Si Mingjing tilted her chin slightly and asked Su Cheng, "Do you know who the man walking with my father is?"
"Isn’t that Huo Manlou? Your stepmother’s brother. He’s in the mariti and seafood business and is quite influential in the Imperial Capital. About half the seafood in the city’s restaurants cos from the Huo Family’s cold storage warehouses. The Huo Family’s seafood supply chain is said to be the second largest in the country. Do you know who’s number one?"
Si Mingjing shook her head, indicating she didn’t know, as she hadn’t been on Earth for long.
"It’s the Ye Family, the one you’re staying with now! The Ye Family imports seafood from the Atlantis Empire every year and distributes it worldwide. Just the daily earnings from their seafood products alone are enough for you to live lavishly for ten lifetis. And you still want to remove a trending topic? Silly you! Why aren’t you rushing to cling to such a powerful connection?"
Si Mingjing was growing increasingly annoyed with Su Cheng, who couldn’t seem to talk about anything but Mo Yinhe!
He has no idea that Mo Yinhe is only using as a substitute!
Su Cheng continued, "Sister Mingjing, don’t tell you’re feeling insecure, afraid to even dream of Mo Yinhe? Let tell you, there’s absolutely no need. Although you’ve never attended school, Mo Yinhe hasn’t either. He hasn’t even been to kindergarten. In terms of education, you’re both on the sa level."
But what Su Cheng didn’t say was...
At age six, Mo Yinhe co-founded the Yinhe Aerospace Base with his father, Ye Junqing, dedicating himself to aerospace research!
At nine, the Yinhe Aerospace Base successfully launched the first man-made spacecraft capable of leaving the Solar System. This marked humanity’s pioneering voyage into galaxies beyond our own.
At ten, Mo Yinhe discovered a habitable planet outside the Solar System and nad it Prison Star. Subsequently, a joint council of scientists from various nations decided to contract Mo Yinhe’s spacecraft. Their mission was to transport Earth’s death-row inmates to Prison Star, where they would serve as test subjects and forerunners for extraterrestrial survival.
At twelve, Mo Yinhe transitioned from business to politics, becoming an indispensable aide to Ye Shiting, A Country’s thirty-fifth President, and began to display his political acun.
At thirteen, Mo Yinhe returned to the Undersea World and consolidated royal power. In just three years, he beca the de facto Crown Prince of the Atlantis Empire and announced his regency.
From then on, he was second to only one person and above tens of thousands!
While others were still in elentary school, Mo Yinhe had already reached the pinnacle of his life!
Su Cheng said only what he intended, like an old procuress, desperately trying to brainwash her:
"Besides, he beca a widower five years ago. What concerns could you possibly have about a widower who doesn’t even have a kindergarten diploma?"
"If I were you, I’d definitely cling tightly to his coattails. It’s just a sha my mother bore as a son! Sigh..."
"Really! If you miss this chance, there won’t be another like it. Besides, his Little Demon King likes you so much. The timing is perfect, the location ideal, and the people supportive—it’s all aligned for you, dear!"
Si Mingjing looked at Su Cheng. This young master is really trying hard to dissuade from marrying into the Su Family.
"Don’t worry, soone like you isn’t my type anyway. You said Huo Manlou is my stepmother Fang Jing’s brother? Why don’t they share the sa surna?"
Su Cheng replied, "He’s not her biological brother. The Huo Family only acknowledged Fang Jing as a goddaughter four years ago. Let tell you, your stepmother is quite capable. She knows when to yield and when to stand firm, and she certainly understands how to latch onto powerful connections—far more astute than you are at seizing opportunities."
Si Mingjing instantly understood.
At that mont, Sheng Liuyun and Huo Manlou were preparing to leave.
Si Mingjing followed Song Tengfei out to see the guests off, clearly sensing that Song Tengfei was in a good mood.
Song Pianlan’s body was not yet cold, yet Song Tengfei’s mood had already improved. Si Mingjing truly felt sorry for Song Pianlan.
Si Mingjing had a sharp and perceptive mind. From Song Tengfei’s reaction, she had almost concluded that Song Pianlan’s death was connected to the Huo Family and also related to Fang Jing.
Her stepmother seed gentle and kind but was actually ruthless and vicious. Song Pianlan had locked her daughter up with Zhou Haiyang, angering Fang Jing. Could she have been driven to murder because of that?
But if that were the case, Fang Jing would have found it impossible to remain in the Song Family long ago. Yet, from her observations today, Si Mingjing noticed no rift between Fang Jing and her mother-in-law.
Could it be that things weren’t that simple?
She had too few clues, the threads too tangled to unravel for now. What benefits did the Huo Family plan to offer Song Tengfei in exchange for Song Pianlan’s life?
「Half a month later,」
The answer to this question arrived. The official website of the Song Group released a piece of news: the Song Group had reached an agreent with the Huo Group on a mariti project valued at two billion yuan.
This was indeed a massive deal! Song Tengfei was truly a man driven by profit.
The thought made Si Mingjing feel sick. She decided to put the Song Family’s affairs aside for the ti being; she had another matter to worry about now.
Mo Yinhe had said he was going to a resort for Christmas and told her to pack her clothes and accompany him.
This was because she now had to administer acupuncture for him daily.
She had truly dug her own pit and ended up leashed to him!
