The fans of the two sides are now arguing fiercely online.

Wen Sirou's fans couldn't believe their idol would do such a thing, and they flocked to Wen Sirou's account to ask what happened.

Several days have passed, but Wen Sirou still hasn't responded.

However, Wen Sirou's company, unable to contact her, tried to get in touch with the police.

After finally receiving a substantive response, the staff member returned to the company looking ashen-faced.

Less than half an hour later, the company announced the termination of its contract with Wen Sirou.

Now the fans have no idea what to make of it.

In just two days, Wen Sirou's number of fans dropped from 1.86 million to just over 700,000.

Wen Li's fan base has grown exponentially. Apart from the upcoming drama "Qianshan Ling", she doesn't have any other representative works, but her fan growth is unprecedented, rising from 500,000 to over 1 million.

Zhou Xingyun and the company's CEO almost burst out laughing when they saw the data.

Zhou Xingyun also received many business cooperation offers, but after comparison and understanding, he found that they were all small brands, and some even lacked production qualifications.

Zhou Xingyun has been in this industry for over a decade, so he naturally understands the mindset of these smaller brands.

Wen Li is destined for success, so as long as Wen Li collaborates with us, the brand's reputation will also rise.

However, Zhou Xingyun knew all too well how important a spokesperson's reputation was.

So Zhou Xingyun called Wen Li and said, "A lot of people have been asking you to be their spokesperson lately, but I think it's too early for you to accept endorsements now. If anyone contacts you, you should refuse them all. If you can't refuse, give them my contact information and I'll talk to them."

Wen Li nodded.

Just after hanging up the phone, Wen Yanchu returned home, but this time she brought someone with her.

Wen Li turned her head and her eyes lit up immediately. She sat up abruptly from the sofa: "Huo Yinghuai! What brings you here?"

Huo Yinghuai was still carrying gifts. After Wen Li finished speaking, he put them on the table next to him. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Wen Li was alright. He replied, "I heard that you had an accident, so I came to see you and also to talk to your older brother about business."

Wen Li looked at Huo Yinghuai. The thick murderous aura from last time had mostly disappeared, with only some faint black mist lingering around him. What remained was the golden light that Huo Yinghuai couldn't hide.

Wen Li couldn't take her eyes off her.

Wen Yanchu then smiled and said, "Last time, we and the police were able to find you in such a short time thanks to Huo Yinghuai."

Wen Li looked over curiously.

Wen Yanchu explained, "The phone Huo Yinghuai gave you was the latest product developed by his company. The one he gave you was a research and development experimental model with a super-powerful BDS satellite positioning system. After your phone's location remained stationary in the suburbs for a long time, Huo Yinghuai called us to ask what was going on."

At this point, Wen Yanchu truly felt lucky.

Xu Yisheng knew some Taoist magic, and at the time he set up a "ghost wall" so that the police could not retrieve the surveillance footage after he left the city.

They even took the wrong path several times on their way here.

Fortunately, Chu Mingtai stayed by their side and solved the problem of being trapped in a maze.

It was only then that they learned that Wen Li's homeroom teacher was also a member of the Xuanmen sect, and even Wen Li's junior brother!

The rescue operation, with its interconnected steps, seemed as if fate had decreed that the little sister would be spared.

"Xiao Li, your brother needs to talk to Huo Yinghuai about work. You can watch TV downstairs for a while."

Wen Li nodded, still thinking about Wen Yanchu's words.

Huo Yinghuai clearly said that this phone was a prize he won at the company's annual meeting.

Before she could figure out what was going on, she saw Huo Yinghuai quickly walk up to the study on the second floor.

Wen Li stared at Huo Yinghuai's retreating figure for a while, then simply gave up on thinking about it.

The two didn't talk about work for long; an hour later, Wen Yanchu saw Huo Yinghuai downstairs.

As he was about to leave, Huo Yinghuai stopped, turned around and looked at Wen Li, who was watching TV and laughing heartily. He suddenly said, "Xiao Li."

Amidst the cacophony of variety show announcements, Wen Li accurately identified Huo Yinghuai's voice.

Wen Li raised her head, her dark, round eyes looking at Huo Yinghuai, as if asking what was wrong.

Huo Yinghuai hesitated for a moment and said, "My birthday is in three days, and I would like to invite you to come over."

After saying that, Huo Yinghuai took out a white flower bud invitation from his briefcase.

Wen Li reached out and took it, seeing her name written on the invitation.

"We're friends, how could I not come to your birthday party!" Wen Li agreed without hesitation, already planning what gift to give Huo Yinghuai.

Finally, Wen Li sighed, "This is the first time I've ever celebrated someone else's birthday. I don't know what to prepare."

Huo Yinghuai breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Wen Li did not refuse. Hearing the girl's distressed voice, he shook his head and said, "You don't need to prepare anything. I'm already very happy that you came."

He holds birthday parties every year, but very few people actually offer genuine blessings; most of the business deals are made through drinking and socializing at the parties.

This year is different.

Huo Yinghuai felt much more relaxed and happy at the thought of Wen Li coming.

"I definitely will prepare something." Wen Li nodded firmly: "You only have one birthday a year, I'll definitely prepare something nice for you."

Upon seeing this, Huo Yinghuai couldn't help but feel a surge of anticipation.

The purpose of today's business discussion has finally been achieved.

When he left, Wen Yanchu and Wen Li got up to see him off.

After Huo Yinghuai left, Wen Yanchu suddenly asked, "Is my little sister and Huo Yinghuai on good terms?"

Wen Li nodded: "Okay, we chat every day."
