Chapter 150 Breaking the Ice

If she continues to let it go, her mission will not be carried out smoothly and her life will be in danger.

"Zhizhi!" Pu Yu's face was terribly gloomy.

Countless times when facing his subordinates, he always used such a high-pressure aura to give the other party some psychological deterrence.

However, at this time he was facing Yuan Li.

He had no way to deal with her.

But now he feels more and more that he has done nothing wrong.

She cares too much about Li Junxi!

Why would a young lady from a family like her chase after celebrities like this?

He used to think that she was willing to spend money and effort to support Li Junxi because she wanted to find an alternative to vent her emotions after being backstabbed by Lin Zixuan.

The new idol replaced the old one, which also made her feel a little relieved.

But now it seems that this is not the case at all.

Yuan Li didn't waver at all and just packed up her things.

"That's it." She wanted to turn around and leave.

But the moment she left, Pu Yu grabbed her wrist.

"Zhizhi! Your father and I still have business dealings. If our relationship breaks down at this point, it will definitely have a very negative impact if word gets out."

"We all attach great importance to this event. We had already decided to invite Li Junxi as the spokesperson for the event. This sudden change of mind has caused great losses to everyone."

"I apologize to you. If there's anything wrong, I can change it. I can also compensate Li Junxi. Calm down and let's talk, okay?"

This was the first time Pu Yu felt so powerless, and it was also the first time he was so humble.

His words would indeed make Yuan Li hesitate.

She had personally asked her father for the endorsement. She didn't want to let Li Junxi go empty-handed, nor did she want to cause losses to her father.

Of course, she didn't want to owe Pu Yu anything.

Originally, Pu Yu was asked for help in this matter, so she would gain more benefits anyway.

Seeing Yuan Li showing some hesitation, Pu Yu went down first.

Dading knew that he had made the right bet.

He was willing to give in to Yuan Zheng and Bu Zhaoyi and establish cooperation with them in order to have more connections with her.

These connections are often not so easy to break.

With these, the relationship between them can be more solid.

Even if there is a gap like this, there are still countless connections that are not so easy to break.

"If you're unhappy today, I'll take you home. I'll take care of this matter."

"I'm sorry for stretching my hand too far and making you unhappy. I apologize."

Pu Yu threw the bouquet of flowers aside, but still picked up the gift.

Yuan Li did not refuse his request this time and got up to go to his car.

"Zhizhi! I was just a little jealous, that's all. I thought I had the capital... but now it seems I was overthinking it."

"Why do you think so highly of Li Junxi? Is it because he's good-looking? But there are plenty of boys who are better looking than him... or is there some other reason?"

"Is it because he showed up when you were having the hardest time? I really envy him."

"Timing is always important, but unfortunately we are not bidding now."

Pu Yu was talking to himself in the car, but Yuan Li was a little absent-minded.

In fact, she regarded Pu Yu as her friend.

Obviously, there was no need to be so awkward in such communication, but she didn't control her temper.

Why is that?

Is it because you have been deceived?

Or was it because Li Junxi was treated unfairly because of him?

Is it really as Pu Yu said, that she cares too much about Li Junxi?

Pu Yu's heart sank as Yuan Li didn't say a word for a long time.

Sure enough, emotional problems are far more difficult than problems in the business world.

He was now jealous to the point of going crazy, but there was nothing he could do.

Yuan Li went home, while Pu Yu drove all the way back to the company.

When Yu Hang saw him, he went up to greet him, but found that his boss had a sullen face.

He felt bad.

"Go contact them now and ask them to recall Li Junxi immediately. I will cover all losses and compensation."

When Yu Hang heard this, his heart skipped a beat.

Damn it. Looks like the boss had a very unpleasant lunch today.

He immediately went to do it.

But at this time, Li Junxi was still climbing on the cliff. How could he call her back just because he wanted to?

…

Yuan Li returned home and wanted to lie down and rest for a while, but Liao Yuwei called her.

"Hey. Check out the trending searches! I'm really impressed. Someone's trying to mess with you."

Yuan Li was a little confused after hearing what she said.

But it doesn't seem like something good could make her so angry.

She opened the SLR software and saw the hot search list.

Several eye-catching large characters come into view.

Li Junxi's former agent Zhao Yue is causing trouble again!

Last time on the set, it seemed that she was still too soft-hearted.

As for the fans' fundraising and corruption allegations? That's completely false!

Liao Yuwei has immediately sorted out all the funds raised by fans, and has clearly recorded every specific expenditure.

This was what Li Junxi reminded them of.

All I can say is that people who have been bullied for so long now understand their tactics.

But he still didn't expect that he would be involved in a tax scandal.

This kind of legal red line issue is a big deal.

Even if fans have a high tolerance for celebrities, it is difficult for them to tolerate them crossing this bottom line.

Yuan Li called Pu Yu.

"Zhizhi, don't worry. I know what you're talking about. Our public relations team is already handling it."

"I'm sorry to bother you again. But what exactly is this tax issue all about?"

"Zhizhi, please don't be so distant with me. There's definitely no problem with our company's taxes. But this matter was revealed by his agent from his previous company. I suspect he was set up at his previous company. It's possible that these people, thinking he was a member of the Li family, thought someone would cover for him. They didn't expect that after the incident, it would become a sharp weapon to attack him."

"Can it be solved?" Yuan Li had a headache.

Pu Yu, however, assured her, "Don't worry, I'm here."

"Tax issues are a big deal, and they're difficult to verify. I'll arrange a public relations plan. But this kind of problem can be solved by paying back the taxes, but it's not a good idea to share it publicly."

"Thank you." Yuan Li still thanked him.

Pu Yu felt that this incident happened at the right time.

At least the ice between him and Zhizhi was broken, otherwise he didn't know what kind of cold palace he would be sent to.

After hanging up the phone, Yuan Li called Li Junxi, but the other party didn't answer.

Thinking that the other party was filming a survival show, Yuan Li felt annoyed.

In desperation, she could only contact Zang Tai.

"Miss Yuan, this matter is a bit tricky. With the trending searches now going on, no matter what the truth is, it's not a good thing for Mr. Li. However, any other claims require evidence to support them. I suggest you contact Mr. Li as soon as possible to clarify the whole story. It's not too late to make any plans then."
