There are Many Things You Don't Know

"Terminating the collaboration is your right, but before you do that, remember to remove all the photos from the internet. After all, you've worn Fanchen's dresses for years."

"Oh, by the way, Wen Yao asked me to pass on a message to you. When she found out that you wore the dress she had designed, she lit a brazier and strode across it back and forth for multiple times,."

"Because, you're bad luck!"

Song Yiling had never seen Wen Yao so eloquent before. She stood there dumbfounded, unable to react. How could the once seemingly mute and submissive Wen Yao suddenly become so fierce and fiery?

Had she been acting all these years? Was this the same person who used to silently endure her insults?

"What nonsense are you spouting? You're just a small designer with no works to your name. How could you possibly know Wen Yao? Stop pretending to be someone you're not!"

Shen Nao watched Song Yiling's frantic demeanor.

Oh my gosh, her expression now was quite fearsome! She wasn't an expressionless actress after all!

Unable to tolerate her idol being wronged, Shen Nao immediately spoke up, "Miss Song, this is true. It's really... something Yao Tiao said. I heard it with my own ears."

Just a moment ago, Wen Yao said it right in front of you.

Shen Nao verified Wen Yao's words. She was Fanchen's assistant and she had seen Yao Tiao, so it seemed reasonable.

Song Yiling's face turned pale, and there were even traces of purple. She was on the verge of losing control due to her frustration.

Seeing her furious expression, Wen Yao decided to give her one last push, "Miss Song, you should manage your facial expressions better. You're a celebrity, not an ordinary person. If you get caught on camera..."

"If your reputation becomes tarnished, it's your own fault. But since you haven't terminated your contract with Fanchen yet..."

"So, show some professionalism and smile!"

Song Yiling's face turned from pale to shades of blue and purple in rapid succession.

If her ugly pictures were really taken and spread on the internet, she might not even be able to complain. She'd be forced to endure it silently!

Furious but forced to maintain her celebrity image, Song Yiling bit her lip and forced a smile, saying through clenched teeth, "Wen Yao! I've underestimated you!"

Seeing her face twist in anger, Wen Yao couldn't help but find it even funnier than when she was crying. "There are many things you don't know."

With that, she took Shen Nao and left.

Song Yiling was so angry her nose nearly turned crooked, but she had to maintain the smiling image of a celebrity as Wen Yao had said.

At that moment, the sound of footsteps approached, and her agent, Amy, appeared.

"Why are you here, Yiling?"

"Come on, the live stream in the store has already started. Your fans are flooding the screen with comments, and the host is struggling to handle the situation. They're waiting for you."

Amy grabbed Song Yiling's arm and half-dragged her away.

Meanwhile, Wen Yao and Shen Nao had already taken the elevator downstairs.

Shen Nao was straightforward and couldn't keep anything to herself.

"Wen Yao, do you have some kind of feud with Song Yiling?"

Wen Yao didn't hesitate to respond, "No, just resentment."

Shen Nao was taken aback. But the next moment, she burst into laughter. "Your performance just now was truly admirable, Wen Yao! Song Yiling is clearly no match for you. You are truly worthy of being my idol!"

Wen Yao looked at Shen Nao, blinked her eyelashes lightly, and smiled along with her.

Shen Nao had an unusual thought process indeed.

Later, Wen Yao and Shen Nao had dinner together. As they were about to leave, a breaking news report suddenly appeared on the mall's massive display screen.

"Just now, the Luding Group has completed the signing ceremony, and Qingya Group has officially joined the Tri-Ding Project..."

Wen Yao's steps paused, and she looked up at the news report playing on a loop.

"Wow, Luding is truly impressive, to be able to convince Qingya Group in Nan City to join the Tri-Ding Project?"

"Not join," Wen Yao's voice was certain. "It's an acquisition."

"Huh?" Shen Nao didn't understand.

But Wen Yao understood very well...

The Tri-Ding Project launched by the Luding Group was actually a covert acquisition disguised as cooperation. The most lucrative part of Nan City was bound to be devoured one day, but she hadn't expected it to happen so quickly.

In terms of qualifications and strength, Qingya Group wasn't inferior to the Luding Group. If there was any difference, it was probably the lack of a formidable and ruthless leader like Lu Yancheng.

Congratulations, Lu Yancheng. Power, status, and money are the perfect fit for someone as heartless as you...

Meanwhile, in Nan City, in the office of the Chairman of Qingya Group...

Gu Zhun sat with one leg crossed over the other, on a brand-new sofa, fiddling with an abacus and producing a rhythmic "dada" sound as he moved the counting beads.

"I'm going to get rich, I'm going to get rich."

"Mr. Gu, have you figured it out?" Secretary Fei entered and saw the scene, smiling as he asked.

"No, the follow-up earnings from this acquisition are immense. I need to calculate carefully," Gu Zhun responded.

Secretary: "..."

Lu Yancheng turned around and shifted his gaze onto Secretary Fei.

Secretary Fei felt a chilling stare on him. His back stiffened, and he quickly regained his composure. Stepping forward briskly, he reported in detail the actions of Wen Yao, without mentioning the so-called adulterer.

The look in Lu Yancheng's eyes darkened. What kind of man was he? That Wen Yao would prefer this man over him, choosing to have an affair within their marriage?

The next day, they flew directly back to Jiang City on a private jet. An eerie gloominess filled the entire space.
