Chou Yan swept his gaze lightly and said coldly, “There’s no need.”
The driver turned around silently and was responsible for driving. The young master’s driver was not so easy to be a driver. He had to drive fast, steadily, and quietly! Uh, quietness naturally meant to make him quiet.
There was still no one in the shop. Although it was magnificent and the glazed lights were flashing, Ji Yan could not feel any warmth at all. She missed the shabby small building where she lived with her mother when she was a child.
At that time, when she looked in from outside the window, the dim yellow light reflected her mother’s figure. Every time she came home, she could smell a simple smell of rice.
But what about now? She was the only one in the big Ji Gui. The bowls and dishes in the kitchen were all lying there coldly, as if no one was interested in them.
Ji Yan touched her belly and found that she was very hungry outside. After searching the kitchen, she only found a few pieces of green vegetables and added some water. Then she cooked the noodles.
After a while, a bowl of noodle soup was served. Ji Yan couldn’t help teasing herself. How could she live in such a good house?
The dining table was very big, and she was the only one sitting there. She suddenly remembered that she had cooked a bowl of noodles for Shang Jingshen two days ago.
It was different from the feeling of eating noodles. No matter what he ate, his movements were very elegant, like that of a real noble young master.
Hearing that he was on a Ji Gui trip, he really didn’t say a word. Ji Yan curled her lips and felt a little angry.
Shang Jinshen didn’t expect such a big thing to happen in North River City after he went on a Ji Gui trip. As the most powerful person in the Ji Gui group, it was common for him to go on a Ji Gui trip.
In the past, he didn’t need to report a Ji Gui trip to anyone. This time, he naturally said that he was on a Ji Gui trip and left. Even though he thought of Ji Yan on the plane, he still didn’t have the habit of telling her.
But what would happen after they got off the plane? As soon as they arrived at the destination, they went to visit Jin Shen, a merchant in the company. It was not until it was late at night that they finished their work. As soon as they walked out of the meeting room, they saw Lan Si walking over in a hurry.
“What’s wrong?” He rubbed the space between his eyebrows, feeling a little tired. This meeting was going to be held with some foreign people, so it was relatively late. He came out to get some fresh air, so he had to go in and continue later.
Lan Si also knew that the Young Master’s meeting this time was very important. It was related to the development of the previous bay project. There had been a small problem last time. The project had been suspended for so long that it could no longer be delayed.
After all, from the beginning to the end, every project had been designed with a lot of manpower, material resources, and financial resources. Therefore, the Ji Gui trip of Shang Jinshen was in a hurry.
But who knew that such a big thing would happen in North River City in such a short time?
“Young Master, Young Madam…” Lan Si looked at Shang Jingshen.
As soon as he heard Ji Yan, he turned his head and frowned. “What’s wrong? What happened?”
“It’s news about Young Madam. Recently…”
The more Shang Jinshen listened, the darker his expression became. He had only been away for a short time. If it weren’t for someone with ulterior motives, so many pieces of news would not have exploded together.
“Do you mean that Ji Zhengqing kidnapped Li Wenjing to threaten her?” He suddenly mentioned this. Lan Si nodded.
Ji Yan didn’t tell Shang Jinshen about this. They had thought that Li Wejing was fine, but in fact…
“Stupid woman!” Shang Jinshen’s tone was very harsh. She didn’t tell him such a big thing. Did she think she could solve it? Especially when she got involved with Huo Qing, whom he had always disliked. Shang Jinshen’s anger deepened.
Shang Jinshen snorted coldly and turned around to leave. The meeting was about to begin. He decided to put it aside for now. This little woman had caused trouble for him, so he should make her suffer.
Seeing that his young master had left without looking back, Lan Si was a little anxious. But he knew that his young master was very busy at the moment, so he could only secretly pray that the young lady was lucky.
But obviously, Lan Si prayed that God didn’t hear him.
Early the next morning, Ji Yan, who was standing on the balcony, was suddenly shocked. The reporters at the door all carried cameras to spy on the merchants.
She quickly left the balcony and frowned. How could this matter be so big? How should she solve it?
While Ji Yan was deep in thought, the Huo family had already spoken. None of the newspapers were allowed to publish any news related to Huo Qing. Otherwise, they would be banned!
As soon as this order came out, the news about Huo Qing on the Internet quickly disappeared, and even the ambiguous photos of him and Ji Yan were also destroyed.
However, the news could be erased, but the human language couldn’t be used. The Huo family’s swift and fierce methods made people more and more suspicious of what Huo Qing and Ji Yan had done.
In this case, no one dared to provoke the Huo family, so they naturally began to revolve around Ji Yan.
Ji Yan hooked up with Young Master Huo Qing and forced herself to distance herself from Ji Yan after being found out by the Huo family’s Grand Master Huo. How could such a woman still be a young madam of a merchant house? There were endless topics such as that.
Huo Qing saw that the new news couldn’t be clarified in person, but Old Master Huo sent someone to keep an eye on it. Before the matter was settled, Huo Qing was not allowed to step out of the Huo family!
Old Master Huo’s idea was to separate Huo Qing from the news. Although the news would have a great impact on Ji Yan, the Huo family would not worry about the businessmen. Although they were selfish, they could not say that they had done something wrong.
After Huo Qing knew about it, he made a big fuss. In the end, he was suppressed. It was Third Madam Huo who came forward to calm him down.
Third Madam Huo promised that she would help Ji Yan at the right time. Only in this way could Huo Qing feel a little more at ease.
Ji Yan was also a poor person. Third Madam Huo thought to herself, “If I can’t handle it well, I may not be able to be the young lady of the Shang family due to the pressure of public opinion. I’ve seen so many such methods. I don’t know who is secretly targeting Ji Yan.”
“My dear First Miss, if this is found out, I’m afraid you…” Fatty Huang stood in front of Maggie and behind her, feeling a little anxious. If what Maggie had done these days was exposed, he was sure that her acting career would be over!
Such control of public opinion was not to deal with ordinary people, but the Young Madam of a rich and powerful family. Once she failed, it could be imagined what would happen to Maggie.
How could people from wealthy families be trifled with so easily? How could public opinion be controlled so easily? They would get into trouble if they were not careful.
Maggie glanced at Fatty Huang coldly and said with a smile, “What are you afraid of?”
“I’m just worried about you, Miss!” Maggie was finished. He was also finished. Maggie could be said to be his God of Wealth, so Fatty Huang didn’t want Maggie to take the risk to do these things. Wasn’t it good for An Sheng to act and make money? If he was not an expert, he would not let go of his position in the rich and powerful family.
How could a young lady from a wealthy family be so easy to do? In the eyes of the upper class, actors were not worth mentioning.
Maggie knew that doing these things with the president of the Shang Corp. in the past would only annoy the Ji Gui. Moreover, he couldn’t see that the president of the Shang Corp. still had an old affection for Maggie. The president of the Shang Corp.’s attitude toward Maggie could be said to be very distant and indifferent.
But he didn’t dare to say these words to Maggie. Maggie picked up a cigarette, and her pretty face looked a little gloomy after the smoke. She said in a low voice, “Just listen to me and do it.”
