That night, the news involving Jiang Yuning, Fu Yahui, and Dongheng Enterprise escalated all over the internet.
After seeing the comments that the netizens had posted online, the young paparazzo called Jiang Yuning and said in a very sad tone, “Sister Yuning, I thought that the situation has already gotten better and that you have already managed to build up your own fan base. However, I am very disappointed because as soon as you run into a little trouble, the netizens do not even hesitate to defame and criticize you once again. They do not even know the truth behind the entire situation, so how can they just condemn you without any evidence?”
“I give up. The netizens do not even make sense at all. They form their judgments and are so quick to condemn you even without any evidence. Does it really make them happy to make negative remarks about someone?”
Jiang Yuning was not that affected by the netizens’ response as she was already used to all the negative comments.
“We even planned to release the second issue of the short video, <Xi Yao> tomorrow. What should we do now?”
“I will still upload the second issue of the short video tomorrow,” Jiang Yuning answered the young paparazzo immediately. “I am not doing it for the netizens who are always criticizing me and waiting for me to fail, but I am doing it for the small fan base that I have right now. I do not want to let them down. As for the matter involving Dongheng Enterprise, you do not need to worry so much because I believe that the results of the investigation will be out soon.”
“Sister Yuning, promise me that you will not check out the netizens’ comments on the internet!”
After hanging up the phone, the young paparazzo was still worried that Jiang Yuning would check out what the netizens had written about her online. He was afraid that Jiang Yuning would be upset and angry from reading the comments.
However, the young paparazzo did not know that Jiang Yuning had already been checking out the netizens’ comments from the start.
[She could not make enough money from all of her lousy dramas, so she is trying to make money using other despicable methods. The Jiang family had already gone bankrupt five years ago. Wake up!]
[I thought that Jiang Yuning would turn over a new leaf and be a completely different person after signing an employment contract with Guangying Media, but seems like this is not the case at all.]
[It has only been a short while since she started garnering less negativity for herself. I recommend that we blacklist actresses such as Jiang Yuning who have no positive image and are unable to set a good example for the entertainment industry.]
[I am just saying this as a passerby. This is their family’s personal matter. Why don’t we give them some privacy? Jiang Yuning did not even come out to make a scene, so why are you guys giving her a hard time?]
Dongheng Enterprise was a big company and Jiang Yuning was merely a small artiste trying to make it in the entertainment industry.
Big companies had money and Jiang Yuning was after that money.
Jiang Yuning read some of the netizens’ comments and she finally decided to turn off her laptop upon a sudden realization.
There were always two sides to everything in this world, and one would never be able to please some people no matter what one did.
Fortunately, the fan base of the fan club that the young paparazzo had created for Jiang Yuning was still going strong.
The fans kept sending private encouragements to Jiang Yuning.
[Sister Yuning, I am just a high school student but I know that you are not a bad person. I hope that you will be able to cheer up.]
[Cute little Yuning, I am a fan of yours and I am also a mother. I hope that you will stay strong and continue to have faith! The truth will always come to light eventually.]
[Fighting! Sister Yuning, your fan club will always be here to support you no matter what happens!]
Jiang Yuning laughed out loud as soon as she saw these messages. She could not understand why the young paparazzo was so frustrated. His contribution and hard work in creating the fan club for her was obviously rewarding, as she would never have received this sort of messages from her fans in the past.
Therefore, Jiang Yuning took the time to respond to each and every encouraging message that her fans had sent.
Despite this, the public opinion was still overwhelmingly tilted towards Fu Yahui and Dongheng Enterprise.
…
In the middle of the night, Fu Yahui received a phone call from the managing partners of Dongheng Enterprise. Even though Fu Yahui had the upper hand right now, the shareholders of Dongheng Enterprise had requested for Fu Yahui to hold a press conference to reveal and justify the origins of the seven billion yuan that she had invested into Dongheng Enterprise. This was merely to provide an explanation to the public, although it would have been more favourable if she was able to obtain the notice that the police would not be filing the case.
Fu Yahui agreed to hold a press conference, but made it clear that she had to discuss the matter with her lawyer first.
After all, she did not know if the police were going to file the case .
Fu Yahui believed Jiang Yuning to be the one who had secretly leaked the information to the media to give her more pressure. However, Fu Yahui was extremely surprised to see that the public taking her side instead of Jiang Yuning’s.
“That little shrewd is really digging her own grave.”
Fu Yahui snorted before making a phone call to get a confirmation from her lawyer.
“Do you have any news for me from the police? What is the final verdict? The media is also requesting that I hold a press conference to make things clear and I also intend to do so to declare my innocence. However, I hope that I will be able to hold the press conference after the police issue the notice that they will not be filing the case.”
“Mrs. Huo, I was planning to give you a call in the morning. You can be rest assured that the police would not be filing a lawsuit against you because I have received news that there is insufficient evidence. You can go ahead and hold your press conference with confidence,” the lawyer quickly assured Fu Yahui. “You can trust me and be rest assured that there will be no more accidents this time.”
“That would be the best. Can you get me a copy of the notice stating that the police will not be filing the case, then?”
“Well, that…there is a process that the police have to go through before they can release the final notice. I am afraid that we will have to wait.”
Fu Yahui still felt uneasy and she wanted to get ahold of the official notice so that she could bring Jiang Yuning down once and for all.
“Then, let’s just wait a little longer,” Fu Yahui replied before hanging up the phone. At this time, Huo Yuxi suddenly entered the living room in a complete mess.
Fu Yahui glanced at Huo Yuxi before asking her directly, “You are already looking like this, so why don’t you go to the hospital and get yourself treated instead of wandering around in front of me all the time? Do I owe you anything?”
Huo Yuxi had just made a trip to the hospital to collect her medical report and she had officially been diagnosed with fourth stage cervical cancer.
All she wanted was to come home and receive some warmth and love from her family. She was even prepared to stop fighting with Fu Yahui, but as soon as she saw Fu Yahui’s attitude towards her, she was filled with nothing but hatred towards Fu Yahui.
“I already heard the entire conversation between you and your lawyer. Jiang Yuning may not have enough evidence to start a lawsuit against you, but Fu Yahui, I am warning you that I have the evidence to incriminate you.”
“Crazy woman.” After scolding Huo Yuxi, Fu Yahui then turned around and returned to her own bedroom.
Huo Yuxi sneered before sitting down on the sofa. At this point, all she wanted was for her family to show her some warmth and love but all that she had received was disappointment.
At this moment, she suddenly felt something stuck in between the cushions on the sofa. She sat up straight and placed her hand in between the gap before taking out a piece of paper. She was surprised to discover that it was the signed agreement between Fu Yahui and Jiang Yuning.
Huo Yuxi thus found out that Fu Yahui had agreed to give Jiang Yuning eight hundred million yuan and 10% of Dongheng Enterprise’s shares as a form of compensation towards Jiang Yuning. In return, Jiang Yuning would no longer be allowed to bring up the fact that Fu Yahui had embezzled the money and abandoned the Jiang family in the past.
After signing the agreement, Fu Yahui had been so frustrated and irritated that she had not realized that the paper had fallen into the gap between the cushions.
After that, she had completely forgotten about the piece of paper. Now, that piece of paper had fallen into Huo Yuxi’s hands.
“Fu Yahui, I will not be able to live much longer anyway. No one in this house cares about me or loves me. We can all perish together then.”
Huo Yuxi then quickly took out her cell phone before contacting one of the media reporters.
“Hello, is this Xiancheng Media? I have some information and inside news that I would like to share.”
Fu Yahui would never have seen this coming. Though the public and netizens were initially supporting her and Dongheng Enterprise, things suddenly got more interesting as soon as Huo Yuxi released the news about the agreement to the media.
…
<Breaking news! Jiang Yuning and Ms. Ava, the deputy director of Dongheng Enterprise, have previously signed an agreement to settle the matter privately between themselves.>
The contents of the agreement stated that Jiang Yuning would receive eight hundred million yuan and 10% of Dongheng Enterprise’s shares from Fu Yahui as a form of compensation. In return, Jiang Yuning would no longer be allowed to bring up the fact that Fu Yahui had abandoned her own daughter and the Jiang family in the past.
[See! I knew it. All that Jiang Yuning wants is money.]
[Hey, are you stupid? This so-called Ms. Ava must have had a guilty conscience if she did agree to sign an agreement with Jiang Yuning. If she has not done anything wrong, why would she have agreed to such a large compensation?]
