Those trending topics were removed very quickly. At this time, all social media was abuzz with news of a popular actress's secret marriage.
Yu Wan keenly sensed something was amiss. She typed "violin recital from last night" into the search bar, and only a few scattered posts appeared. Her first thought was: someone had removed the trending topic!
But why?
First, we can rule out the Ji and Feng families; those trending topics would only benefit them. Second, we can rule out Meng Shen; this matter would offend both families simultaneously, so simply spending money wouldn't suffice. Could it be that Old Man Yu intervened?
Thinking of this, Yu Wan sent a message to Secretary Li. A few seconds later, the other party replied.
We didn't do it.
What's wrong with those trending topics?
Secretary Li was filled with doubt. Could it be that she hadn't done her job properly? But those messages clearly had nothing to do with the young lady or even the Yu Group.
Yu Wan typed "No problem" and sent it, her gaze casually falling on a spot on the table as she pondered.
Who else could it be but Old Man Yu?
What other enemies did Ji Bailian offend? After all, she was the one who suffered the greatest loss in this matter.
Or perhaps...
That mysterious, kind person from last time!
No matter how hard she investigated, she couldn't find any trace of the other party, only hearing that he was a powerful figure she couldn't afford to offend. Just as she was about to continue investigating, the comment control team changed their tune, either giving perfunctory answers or saying "no comment."
"The food'll get cold if you don't eat soon." Tang Yue picked out a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs and put it in her bowl, smiling, "How are you feeling now? Are you feeling better?"
Yu Wan's heart skipped a beat, then she raised an eyebrow suspiciously: "Did you orchestrate the trending topic?"
Tang Yue remained calm: "I have no money."
As Yu Wan chewed on the ribs, she couldn't help but think of the time when he was being chased by creditors, and then she thought of how he had traveled thousands of miles to Liaocheng to negotiate with the creditors. Her doubts vanished in an instant.
"How's it going with your creditor's matter?" she asked casually.
"It's resolved. The other party has agreed to grant an extension of three months." Tang Yue's eyes lit up with a smile, as if they were studded with stars, dazzling and bright.
Yu Wan hurriedly looked away and said stubbornly, "I didn't mean to worry about you. We're going back to Jiangcheng this afternoon. I was just worried that you were delaying me because you hadn't resolved your issues."
Tang Yue gave a soft "hmm" and served her a bowl of soup.
Yu Wan glanced at it and then noticed that the table was full of her favorite dishes. How did this person know her preferences?
"Meng Shen told me," Tang Yue answered directly.
Yu Wan frowned: "Why would he tell you all this?"
Tang Yue gazed at her intently, a smile playing on his lips: "Understanding you and taking good care of you is what I should do."
"..."
Even though she knew he didn't mean it that way, Yu Wan still felt her cheeks burning and thought resentfully: Tang Yue is such a damn sycophant!
-
The Ji family in Jiangcheng.
Bang--
The vase was smashed again, and the whole room was a mess, with trash everywhere.
Everyone looked at each other, speechless with fear. For some reason, ever since the young lady returned from Liaocheng, she had thrown a huge tantrum, and no one dared to provoke her.
The atmosphere was oppressive.
"What are you all standing here for?" A stern voice suddenly rang out.
Upon hearing that the head of the family had returned, everyone scattered in a panic.
Ji Xuan glanced around, his gaze landing on the butler: "Where is Miss?"
The butler lowered his eyes and said, "Upstairs, Miss seems to be in a bad mood."
Upon seeing the scene in the room, Ji Xuan's face immediately darkened: "Nonsense, she doesn't act like a proper lady at all."
Ji Yun Chu was startled and quickly got out of bed. She tidied her disheveled hair and clothes and asked nervously, "Dad, why are you back?"
Ji Xuan snorted coldly, glanced at her sideways, and quickly guessed the reason: "Is it because the trending topic was removed?"
Ji Yun Chu lowered her head in grievance: "It must have been Yu Wan who did it. She just can't stand to see me doing well."
"It's her again." Ji Xuan frowned. "I warned you last time not to provoke Yu Wan. Look at what happened to the Wang family. Although the Ji family is more powerful than the Wang family, it is still no match for the Yu family."
Ji Yun Chu nodded reluctantly, her hands clenched into fists at her sides, her eyes filled with intense hatred. Endure, endure, endure—how long did she have to endure this? A nouveau riche's daughter was already riding roughshod over her.
"By the way, I heard Tang Yue and Yu Wan are getting quite close?" Ji Xuan pursed his lips and frowned, feeling uneasy. The recent events had been handled so quickly and cleanly; could Tang Yue have been involved?
Ji Yunchu nodded: "Everyone's saying that Yu Wan is pursuing Tang Yue." She couldn't help but feel a little smug about it. See? Yu Wan is scrambling for what she doesn't want.
"We absolutely cannot let Tang Yue and Yu Wan get together. With the Yu family's support, once Tang Yue rises again, the Ji family will definitely not escape his revenge." Ji Xuan thought for a moment, and a plan came to mind: "Tang Yue has never been interested in women. The fact that he was engaged to you must mean he was deeply in love with you. You should try to get close to him and regain his trust."
Ji Yun Chu hesitated, still feeling uneasy about the look Tang Yue had given her at WW2. "But what if Lingchuan finds out? How will we explain it?"
Ji Xuan: "Don't worry, he knows all of this."
Hearing this, Ji Yun Chu felt a heavy weight instead of relief. However, Ji Xuan's next words brought a smile back to her face.
"We were just talking about your marriage. The engagement date is set for the end of next month, but the exact time hasn't been decided yet. Use this time to win Gao Lingchuan's heart and, incidentally, regain Tang Yue's attention, understand?"
Ji Yun Chu felt a surge of excitement and accomplishment at the thought of winning over two of Jiang Cheng's most promising young men. She raised an eyebrow and replied, "Dad, I understand."

After Yu Wan returned to Jiangcheng, she was closely watched by Old Man Yu for several days. Living a simple and monotonous life between school and the villa, she was listless for a whole week. Even her cronies kept asking her in the group chat whether she had reformed.
Yu Wan had been eagerly anticipating the weekend, and as soon as she received a call from Meng Shen, she rushed out.
The meeting place is to meet at the gym.
Besides Meng Shen, Huang San and others were also present. When the dozen or so people came out of the elevator, anyone who didn't know better would have thought they were about to have a brawl or film a variety show. But after observing for a while, it turned out that they were actually there to exercise, either running, lifting weights, or swimming. The passersby were almost speechless with astonishment.
Someone posted the video online, which immediately attracted a large number of netizens. Sharp-eyed people recognized their identities, which generated another wave of strange trending topics.
