Chapter 380 Why waste that money? Let her hang up if she wants.

Huo Yanmo looked at Shi Nian.

His main concern was that she didn't want to be upset, even though he knew she could handle it.

But at the same time, he also understood that she didn't want him to get too involved.

One reason is that this is the first project for Yishi.

On the one hand, it's also for the sake of their future.

but……

Huo Yanmo lowered his eyes slightly, deep in thought.

"What are you thinking about?" Shi Nian asked.

Huo Yanmo smiled, and said inscrutably, "How do you want to make some people feel bad?"

Shi Nian raised an eyebrow.

Of course she knew that Huo Yanmo, though he appeared gentle and refined, was also a man of means; otherwise, he wouldn't have the family business he had today.

The two chatted back and forth as they finished their lunch.

"Go back and rest. I don't think there will be anything going on at your company this afternoon," Huo Yanmo said. "I'll have Xiao Xu take you home. If anything comes up, I'll have Aunt Wu call you."

"Mm." Shi Nian nodded.

...

The news spread very quickly.

Soon, almost everyone in the industry knew about it.

Countless people called Shi Nian.

Shi Nian only replied to messages from a few important people, and then silenced her phone.

Countless people are discussing it.

Lu Xinyi was very happy to see this situation in the industry.

Thinking about it, she called Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan has already taken a plane back to F country.

After talking to Shi Nian that day, he took the opportunity to leave not long after. Of course, Shi Nian still went to see him off in the end.

At this moment, Lin Xuan had just finished some things and lay down on the big bed.

Then I received a transoceanic phone call.

Seeing that it was Lu Xinyi's name, he sighed deeply, but still answered the call.

"Hello?" Lin Xuan asked. "What's up?"

Lu Xinyi leaned back in her chair, watching the traffic flow outside the floor-to-ceiling window.

"Lin, how have you been lately?" Lu Xinyi asked.

"I'm quite busy," Lin Xuan said. "So, if you have something to say, say it quickly, I have other things to do later."

“Okay.” Lu Xinyi said, sending Lin Xuan a link, “Take a look at this and you’ll understand.”

Lin Xuan glanced at it and clicked on it, seeing the news that Shi Nian and Fu Jinyan's 150 million yuan was trapped.

Lin Xuan frowned after just one glance, and then he sat up abruptly.

"You saw it?" Lu Xinyi said with a smile after hearing the noise.

"Mm," Lin Xuan replied.

"What are your thoughts?" Lu Xinyi thought smugly, wanting to hear Lin Xuan's disappointment with Shi Nian.

"I don't have any ideas," Lin Xuan replied.

He was indeed a little nervous just now, but considering Shi Nian's methods and way of doing things, it shouldn't be that serious. And even if he really was trapped, she should have a way to deal with it.

"No ideas?" Lu Xinyi's hopes were dashed, and then she sneered, "With so much capital tied up, you still don't have any ideas?"

Lin Xuan lazily got up, poured himself a glass of wine, and said, "Hmm, she'll handle it."

Lu Xinyi was even angrier: "You trust her that much?"

Lin Xuan took a sip of wine and looked at the sky outside.

"Hmm," he replied. "Then what do you want to hear me say?"

Lu Xinyi gritted her teeth.

“Lu Xinyi, I’ve already made it very clear to you before. There’s a life between me and Nian, so there’s no possibility for us anymore. You don’t need to be so persistent,” Lin Xuan advised.

“I know,” Lu Xinyi said.

Actually, she knew this ever since Lin Xuan told her about what happened back then.

But she just wouldn't accept it.

Why is it that Shi Nian refuses?

Why does Lin Xuan know that Shi Nian is unwilling? Why does Lin Xuan still care about Shi Nian when she is about to marry Huo Yanmo?

And Lu Yanzhi, whom she had always admired, was also fixated on Shi Nian.

She comes from a prestigious family and, through her own efforts over the years, graduated from an Ivy League university in France. During her time in France, she handled many important matters.

In what ways is Lu Xinyi inferior to Shi Nian?

Even after hanging up the phone, Lu Xinyi's anger did not subside.

She held her phone, looking at the traffic below the huge floor-to-ceiling window, something flickering in her eyes.

Lin Xuan looked at the phone, at his wit's end. He could only send Shi Nian a message to let her know about it.

...

The news that day was mostly circulating within the industry.

The next day, the news began to spread to a wider audience, with various efforts being made to disseminate it.

#Shi Nian overestimated his abilities, a pretty face trying to break into the investment world, and ended up with his funds tied up#

This post immediately topped the trending searches.

"I made some inquiries, and it turns out Lu Xinyi had someone buy the trending topic," Huo Yanmo said. "Should we take it down?"

Shi Nian smiled and said, "Why waste that money? Let her hang it up if she wants."

Although there might be some impact in the next few days because she also has a contract with Fu's Entertainment, everything will be fine after Xu Cheng's friend comes out to clarify.

Generally speaking, artists' management contracts have many restrictions. However, because she signed with Fu Jinyan's company, their contract was modified a lot afterward. Shi Nian is still free, but her music industry affairs continue to be handled by Fu's Entertainment.

Huo Yanmo nodded.

The two ate breakfast, played with Sisi for a while, and then went to the company.

As soon as Shi Nian stepped out of the elevator, she saw a large group of people at the company.

Xiaoyu had been waiting on the side for a while. When she saw Shi Nian, she immediately pulled her into the aisle to prevent Shi Nian from being seen by these people.

"What's wrong?" Shi Nian asked.

“Sister Nian, there are all kinds of people.” Xiaoyu pulled Shi Nian away again and said, “There are people who come to inquire about information, people who come to kick us when we're down, and people who said they were interested in cooperating with us before but are now trying to distance themselves from us, and so on and so forth, there are all kinds.”

Shi Nian raised an eyebrow.

It's only been a day, things haven't even settled down yet, and it's already started?

She thought that if there was a week, these people would need to wait and see for a couple more days.

So impatient?

“Okay, I understand,” Shi Nian said.

Then he walked ahead. Xiaoyu was anxious, but Shi Nian just waved his hand to indicate that everything was fine.

As soon as Shi Nian entered the company, she was immediately surrounded by people.

"Shi Nian, what's wrong with you?"

"Shi Nian, I only agreed to cooperate with you before because of Huo Yanmo, but now that you've created such a huge mess, I don't dare to do it anymore. Everyone here can be my witness!"

"Shi Nian, you'd better retire from the entertainment industry as soon as possible, go home and have a baby. The investment world is not something a pretty face like you can handle!"

...

Indeed, there are all kinds of people.

Shi Nian's smile remained unchanged.

She didn't care at all.

If she can't even withstand this little bit, how can she possibly rebuild the Shi family!

"Everyone," Shi Nian said with a smile, "please be patient, could you please let me say a few words first?"

The group continued chatting until Shi Nian grabbed something and slammed it hard on the table next to her, making a loud noise, which finally stopped them.
