“Oh, are you jealous?” Jiang Yuning glared at her brother before she walked over to them and sat down next to Vera.
“Why are you still out here when you have just gotten married? Shouldn’t you be at home right now?”
“I...”
Before Jiang Yuning could explain herself, Vera’s cell phone suddenly rang. At that time, Vera immediately guessed that it should be that person calling her. When she took out her cell phone and looked at the caller ID, it turned out that her assumption was right—it was indeed Yin Qingyu who was calling her.
“Vera, I will make sure that you know the price that you have to pay for having the guts to lay your hands on me!”
Vera froze in place as soon as she heard Yin Qingyu’s words. At this time, Jiang Yuning took the cell phone from Vera’s hands and spoke to Yin Qingyu directly, “What can you do? Are you going to come out from this cell phone and bite her now?”
“Jiang Yuning?”
“Why are you calling my name? Is it because you are a dramatic and depressed patient who needs love and care right now?” Jiang Yuning asked immediately. “If you want to release any more news or videos in future, please go ahead and do it. Stop wasting our time by making all these unnecessary phone calls.”
After she was done speaking, Jiang Yuning hung up the phone directly.
“Sister Yuning, aren’t you afraid that you would irritate and provoke her by speaking to her in that manner?” the young paparazzo asked.
“Can’t you hear that she is trying to threaten and make a fool out of Vera?” Jiang Yuning replied as she stared at the young paparazzo. Jiang Yuning then tapped her hands on the table before she said to Vera, “The video is in her hands right and there is no way that we can get it back. In this case, the best thing to do is to take the initiative to blow this matter up ourselves. I have a way to make her famous in a terrible light.”
“What is your plan?”
“First of all, we will need to find a well-known and established journalist who prioritizes women’s safety. We will get the journalist to interview you and during the interview, you will tell her about the experience that you had encountered in the past. After that, my brother will be in charge of sharing the news and making sure that it becomes a hot search on both the entertainment and social news. The main point is to let the netizens and public know that you were only working part-time to sell liquor at that time, and that you were not working as a social escort. After that, you can tell them that you had mistaken your benefactor for someone else for the past few years and in the end, you have finally realized that your benefactor was a devil!”
“In this case, if Yin Qingyu decides to upload your videos, the netizens can automatically connect the dots and determine then that she is the fake benefactor who has made use of you all these years. The results would definitely be better if you could get your ex-colleagues to testify for you and vouch that your side of the story is true. Once we get ahold of Yin Qingyu’s weakness, we can also use it against her then. That way, we would be able to pin her down and destroy her completely.”
“If she wants to hide behind the scenes, then we will pull her out into the limelight.”
The young paparazzo could not help but applause as soon as he heard Jiang Yuning’s plan. “Sister Yuning, you are more than welcome to join our team!”
“This way, not only will you be able to clear your own name and diminish the rumors that you used to work as a social escort, but Yin Qingyu would also lose all the power and control that she has over you. However, you might suffer some grievances because the news that the man had almost taken advantage of you that night will be all over the internet.”
“This is way better than Yin Qingyu’s slandering that I had been a social escort in the past. After all, you were the one who has told me that I should lift my head up high if I am the innocent party. I do not need to feel intimidated by her.”
“Brother, do you have any resources to execute this plan?” Jiang Yuning asked as she turned around to look at Ku Jie.
“The best way is to seek Guangying Media’s help to arrange the interview. On my side, I can intercept and stop Yin Qingyu’s attempt to post any videos or news about Vera prior to the interview. I will be able to keep it under control for the next few days,” Ku Jie replied coolly. “If things really turn bad, I could just show up in front of her and distract her with my handsome face. There is nothing for me to lose anyway.”
“Brother, please be more civilized.”
“She is already trying to attack my sister! How could you expect me to be civilized now?” Ku Jie replied as he glanced at Jiang Yuning. “I will show up personally to play around with her!”
“Please act like a decent person. Otherwise, I will not know how to explain it to my future sister-in-law.”
“Do you think that I will let her touch me at all? I think that she is dirty! I am only going to mess around with her because she thinks that I am a nobody who is struggling to make ends meet.”
Jiang Yuning could only shake her head helplessly as she stared at Ku Jie. “Okay, fine. Do whatever you want to, but make sure that you help us delay and intercept any of Yin Qingyu’s attempts to release any news or videos for as long as you can. We will go ahead and discuss this matter with Director Shen now.”
Ku Jie made an ‘okay’ gesture at Jiang Yuning.
After that, Jiang Yuning and Vera headed to Guangying Media immediately to discuss how to resolve this matter with Director Shen Yichen.
Shen Yichen was deep in thought after they pitched the idea to him. After a short while, he finally said, “I can arrange for a journalist to come over and conduct an interview on the life of professional agents. Since the netizens and many of the younger fans are also very interested to know more about these agents that I have brought back from abroad, it would be a very good idea to hold an interview. Furthermore, we could have the journalist interview all three agents that have come back with me instead of just Vera alone. That way, it would not be that easy to discover that the purpose of the interview is solely in response to your scandal.”
“The important thing is to set the theme for the interview so that the focus would be in the right place. For your interview, we could focus more on women’s independence and the secret to gaining and building a successful career. I will ask the journalist to specifically ask questions about the difficulties that you have faced in building up your career. That way, you can take the opportunity to bring up that particular incident that you had experienced in the past.”
“Director Shen, you are the best!” Jiang Yuning said as she gave Shen Yichen a thumbs up.
“This is the type of attitude that every public relations officer should have. They are supposed to take advantage of any crisis that occurs and turn them into opportunities instead.”
Shen Yichen was also beginning to reflect on his own attitude because of Jiang Yuning. This was because when the scandal involving Vera had first broken out, his initial reaction was to immediately cast Vera aside in a feeble attempt to protect Jiang Yuning. He did not know if he had reacted that way because he had already been working for so many years and had already lost the attitude and fighting spirit that he had in the past.
“I will make all the necessary arrangements for the interview. Vera will have to come in to the company to attend the interview tomorrow. As for all the other aspects, you would have to work with X Society to get things done.”
“Alright then.”
Vera finally felt relieved because they had finally figured out a solution to the problem.
“You...you just got married today. It is already late in the evening. Why are you still not home waiting for your husband?”
Jiang Yuning could not help but laugh, as it seemed as though everyone was concerned because she had just gotten married. At this time, Jiang Yuning suddenly received an incoming phone call.
Jiang Yuning looked at her caller ID before she raised her cell phone and said, “Well, my husband is calling me already.”
“Show off! You can leave now. Go.”
Jiang Yuning and Vera exchanged glances with one another before they walked out of Shen Yichen’s office.
At first, Vera still had some things that she wanted to say to Jiang Yuning. However, she decided to hold back her thoughts because Jiang Yuning had just gotten married today. She would repay her kindness and show her gratitude through her actions instead.
“Hello? Second brother, I am still at Guangying Media now but I am going home now.”
After ending the phone call, Jiang Yuning quickly got into her car. She suddenly recalled something and she looked out the car window before informing Vera, “Vera, move out of your current house. Find a new place to live in. From now on, cut yourself free from any form of communication with that woman. Raise your chin and live confidently, okay?”
“Alright then, I will do as you say,” Vera replied with a smile on her face.
She knew that it was only right for her to move because Yin Qingyu knew where she was currently staying.
Jiang Yuning drove away from Guangying Media after getting Vera’s confirmation.
When she reached home, it was already seven o’clock at night. Sister Liang had already gotten off work.
As soon as she opened the front door, Jiang Yuning could see Lu Jingzhi sitting on the sofa in the living room as he read his military affairs newspaper.
Jiang Yuning immediately showed her enthusiasm, just as it had been in the past, and she rushed towards Lu Jingzhi and threw her hands around his neck immediately. “Second brother...”
“That is not what you should be calling me now.” Lu Jingzhi put the newspaper down before he sat her down on his lap. “Try again.”
“I feel a little uncomfortable...to call you that,” Jiang Yuning replied as she pouted. Though she knew what he wanted her to call him, she felt too awkward to do so.
“Well, you still have to get used to it even if it is awkward. Try it out first.”
Jiang Yuning looked down at the man’s sexy throat and she finally gathered enough courage to say, “Husband.”
However, Lu Jingzhi was dissatisfied because Jiang Yuning had said it so quickly and it seemed as though she did not mean it at all.
“What?”
“Husband...”
“Repeat it another two times...”
“Husband! Husband!” Jiang Yuning yelled as she blushed. “Are you satisfied now? You are always bullying me.”
“Is this called bullying?” Lu Jingzhi asked. After that...
