Chapter 43
Last night was a nightmare for the big pink coconut in Xu Feng's family.
She didn't buy a VIP ticket, but she still took her lyrics book and DSLR camera and welcomed her idol's concert with the utmost enthusiasm.
It started out well, with no problems, and it made Coconut feel that the information released in the group before was indeed a lie.
Although there was some commotion during the intermission, she happened to be out taking care of a hygiene issue and did not see it. She only knew that when she came back some people were whispering.
She didn't care about this. After all, Xu Feng was still on the stage and the people around him didn't behave strangely, which meant that there was no collapse.
In order to show her piety, she didn't even open her mobile phone, but just watched her idol's performance attentively. From time to time, she took out her SLR camera to take a few photos, waiting to send the refined photos to the fan page after returning.
However, how did Xu Feng repay her?
"——I want to share my joy with my fans!"
Share your dad and delight your mom.
"I have someone I like!"
Fuck you, I spent thousands of dollars to see you at the concert, is this just to watch you confess to someone?
Just when Coconut was getting increasingly irritable and about to go all out, Crocs suddenly struck and knocked Xu Feng to the stage.
The entire concert audience gradually gathered together with an astonishing wave of voices. Some people were shouting "Well done!", while others began to shout for a refund.
"Refund! Refund! Refund!"
"Well fought! Well done!"
"We came to the concert, not to see you confess your feelings!"
It was as if the cheers from the national football team gathered around Xu Feng, which dazzled Xu Feng who had just gotten up from the ground and was about to curse.
He has never been subjected to so many people's condemnation and blame, and it was sent by his fans. Shouldn't they always support him? Just like Anyang.
Something is wrong. Something is really wrong with this world. It shouldn't be like this. It shouldn't be like this at all.
Xu Feng was thinking a little collapsedly. He was holding the microphone and was about to say something, but fortunately, the security personnel appeared in time and pulled Xu Feng away.
The audience cheered the moment Xu Feng was pulled down.
After Xu Feng completely disappeared from sight, the voices for ticket refunds gradually became smaller, and everyone gradually prepared to leave. In the end, only the die-hard fans were shouting.
This also made Coconut feel better temporarily, but after returning home and seeing that Weibo had crashed again for some unknown reason, Coconut chose to vent her anger temporarily in the group.
When the fans in the group heard the news, they were in disbelief at first, until they saw the short live video sent by Coconut, then they screamed in disbelief.
"Why is he doing this to us? Are we some kind of cheap people? Why do we have to watch him confess his love to someone else at a concert?"
"Can't he be a little more professional? If he wants to confess his feelings to you, he should quit the entertainment industry first! Idols are supposed to be chaste!"
"(A string of expletives) I'm going to blast him on the official Weibo account. I bought his magazine before, now give me an invoice and a refund!"
The group was extremely excited and started to denounce Xu Feng in the middle of the night. After finishing his routine work, Coconut couldn't sleep, so he got up at 2 a.m., crying while typing a short essay in front of the computer.
She had fallen in love with Xu Feng two years ago. He was such a good person, so how could he become like this now? Why did he treat his fans like this?
She wrote with great emotion until eight in the morning. Fortunately, it was the weekend, and despite her overworked body, Coconut sent this short essay to the group.
The group was suddenly filled with sobbing.
"I really want to stop being a fan. He can't consume the fans' love like this."
Coconut said that he planned to quit the circle in the evening after posting this short essay.
By this time, Weibo had been repaired, and Coconut clicked on the Weibo hot search with a sad mood as if he was going to visit a grave.
Last night, a top idol confessed his love to someone in public and got beaten up again. It was bound to be on the trending search. She planned to post this short essay at the top, but when she clicked on the trending search...
The young fans in Xu Feng's fan group were originally waiting for Coconut's essay so they could use it for team building. However, after waiting for half an hour and refreshing Coconut's Weibo page several times, they still couldn't see it. Just when they were confused, Coconut's essay finally appeared, but...
I don’t know why, but those little fans always feel that the entries in Coconut’s essay are a bit perfunctory.
They didn’t even include the two iconic terms in their fan circle, with emoticons sandwiched between them, to prevent their weighting from being reduced.
She didn't even include a broken heart emoji.
The little fans were quite confused and were posting question marks everywhere in the group, just like children who couldn't find their mother.
—until the coconut finally bubbled up and spoke in an extremely excited tone.
"Forget about that idiot Xu Feng! Go check out the trending searches! They're much more interesting than what happened last night!"
The little fans were now even more confused, but they still obediently chose to click on the trending search.
The door to a new world opened wide before them.
"Help, what's going on? I just went to bed a little early last night, why did the Qin Group suddenly send its prince out?"
"Didn't my brother have a concert last night? How come he went to Africa to provide aid?"
"Help! Why did I wake up and find myself going to Africa to see giraffes baring their teeth?"
Countless people in the hot search were wailing about whether anyone was willing to cut the melon.
This trending search not only confused the audience who didn't know what was posted last night, but also confused Xu Feng's fans who just clicked on Weibo to vent their frustration.
After understanding the cause and effect of last night's incident, the fans immediately put Xu Feng's matter behind them.
It’s not uncommon for idols to confess their love to people at concerts, but this one is definitely unprecedented!
At this time, some badger dogs that had not slept the night before also started cutting melons for others.
"If you don't know what happened, go to last night's trending search and find the video link here. Honestly, it's not unfair that Qin Shi was sent to Africa to fight."
Others spoke to people who knew some inside information but were obviously not clear about the situation.
"Is it possible that just because he kissed his stepfather last night, he was sent to Africa to work as a traitor today?"
At first, Xu Feng’s fans still wanted to scold Xu Feng, but now they no longer think about it. They just want to know how much happened last night.
Just boycott Xu Feng, return all his peripherals, call out his endorsements, and write a few complaint letters using templates. Now this melon is the most important thing!
Xu Feng’s fans were going crazy in the Super Topic Square at first, but gradually everyone was controlled by last night’s big melon, and even the boycott Weibo posts were cross-posted with the gossip Weibo posts.
Other people on the Internet also knew what Xu Feng did last night, but since the confession was unsuccessful and the target could not be found out, and the boycott was also carried out by fans, they did not care much.
It’s not as good-looking as the Qin family’s melon.
"So, can anyone sort out the time and let me see the whole story clearly? I really want to know why Qin Shi kissed his stepfather, and the love-hate relationship between Mr. Ye and the Qin family!"
Netizens are shouting everywhere on Weibo, hoping that someone can compile a timeline.
Last night's high-definition video also became a huge hit. However, when netizens saw the scene in the video where Qin Shi's father beat Qin Shi to death, they no longer had any thoughts of calling the police on Qin Shi's behalf.
"Honestly, if I had a son like that, I'd be considered restrained if I didn't beat him to a pulp. But now, Director Qin just beat him to the ground and took his wife away. He really loves his son."
Someone said in a blog post quietly.
But someone soon replied to him.
"You love him so much you'd throw him to Africa, huh? But have you ever considered that you beat your son into a tumble because that's your most brutal form of revenge?"
"And the reason they take their wives away after just one beating is because they can then send their sons off to Africa to see giraffes baring their teeth."
"...I need to take out a loan to find someone to fuck you!"
"Can you afford the loan?"
This vicious conversation was even posted on the marketing account's reposting page, but more people were still asking to see Mr. Ye's love history.
Naturally, marketing bloggers noticed this hotspot and all kinds of speculation and gossip emerged.
But due to their lack of imagination, these speculations and gossips are nothing more than theories about Daji, true love, and family property.
Until a newly registered marketing account appeared, which put an end to the behavior of these marketing account bloggers who wanted to take advantage of traffic.
Because this person used his ability that was comparable to writing a paper to present everyone with a melon-eating report with clear data.
From the selfie Mr. Ye posted from abroad two years ago, to his incredible "How could he do this?", to the photo of folded hands he posted on New Year's Day a year ago, and the question "Why is it their family again?" he posted on Valentine's Day.
Even Mr. Ye posted on QQ space twelve years ago, "Why is he such a person!"
All of them were dug out, and this blogger was even able to judge what the employees of Ye Group and Qin Group were feeling at the time based on the messages they posted online during that period.
He even made data tables, bar charts and pie charts, determined to let everyone understand what happened that day at the first glance after clicking on them.
As soon as this blog post came out, all the traffic marketing bloggers were immediately eclipsed, and the onlookers applauded and shouted, "The world needs more onlookers like this blogger!"
However, the blogger responded seriously to the comments section asking people to write about their thoughts.
"If you're not involved, you can't write it."
The blogger's honesty won unanimous praise from the audience in the comment section. After all, no matter how the marketing account writes, it is suspected of guiding the public opinion, so it is better to just post the data clearly.
Anyway, they will imagine their situation based on the data.
With this idea in mind, the audience began to speculate in the comment section what was going on with this family.
There is definitely nothing wrong with Mr. Ye, except that his aesthetic taste is a bit too uniform. He has only had three relationships at the age of 30, and each relationship has an interval of more than half a year. This is already a normal person among normal people.
It was Mr. Qin and his family that made the audience begin to wonder what kind of charm Mr. Ye had that made the whole family fall for him. It seemed that they were completely devoted to him and would never repent or turn back.
There are even more fan fictions flying around in the super topic.
However, neither the Qin nor the Ye Group responded, and their collective act of pretending to be dead made netizens realize that this matter might remain a mystery forever.
Of course, these rumors weren't just for netizens to enjoy. The next day's fluctuating share prices of the Qin and Ye Groups proved that investors' confidence in the companies involved in these scandals was beginning to wane.
This also gave Liang Qing an opportunity to take advantage of.
The high-definition video posted on Weibo last night was posted by him. The girl was not a fan of any artist, but a professional paparazzi.
At first, Liang Qing was worried that this girl might be threatened, so he specially signed a contract for her.
But strangely, the girl was not threatened, and his contract was not used.
Although Liang Qing noticed something was wrong, he eventually ignored it as he watched the falling stock price of Shixing.
——The most important thing for him now is to buy a large number of Shixing shares through the falling stock price, and for small shareholders to sell their shares.
"Although I feel very sorry for Afeng, it's his fault for not following professional ethics. I will accept these shares."
Liang Qing was extremely excited at the thought that he could finally get what he deserved, and he ignored the abnormality of the situation in his excitement.
Liang Qing suffered no fewer setbacks than Xu Feng during this period.
Xu Feng was only divorced, but the project he was in charge of was actually targeted by the Qin family. If he hadn't made a quick decision and gave up some of his interests, it would be unclear whether the project was still in the hands of the Liang family.
His parents' confidence in him was shaken because of this incident. During this period, Liang cleared the project he was working on and could not take on any other projects. Even if he wanted to go to the company, he was persuaded by his parents.
Liang Qing had no choice but to put aside his ambitions and reluctantly set his sights back on Shixing.
At first, Liang Qing was planning to take action against Mr. Ye. After all, Mr. Ye’s Ye Group’s steel pipe factory only had overseas business now. As long as he joined forces with domestic steel pipe factories to suppress it a little and make Mr. Ye too busy to handle everything, he could take action against Shixing.
But what Liang Qing didn't expect was that Mr. Ye was also quite troublesome. It's not that his business tactics were useless. At the beginning, he shorted the stocks of Ye Group and released false news to encourage shareholders to sell Ye shares, which also caused a certain degree of trouble to Ye.
——But the Ye family has the Qin family as their backing.
His method of short-selling stocks was adjusted by the Qin family in just over ten days, and he almost lost his hard-earned funds.
Later, the Liang family's company suffered a heavy blow in the business world from the Qin family.
It was not until the Liang family obediently spread the news in the circle and promised to avoid the Ye family in the future that the means of revenge finally stopped.
However, although Liang Qing acted obedient on the surface, he still had not given up on Shixing in private.
Fortunately, he happened to stumble upon this once-in-a-century scandal, so he led his online army to stir up trouble, causing investors to lose confidence in the stocks of both companies.
However, his target was still not the Qin and Ye families. As long as he could make the two families too busy to deal with each other, he could take action against Shixing. This kind of modesty really allowed him to acquire a lot of stocks.
Liang Qing had originally intended to quit while he was ahead, but someone had somehow spurred the online public opinion he was leading, turning it in a direction unfavorable to the Ye family. Liang Qing then discovered that Mr. Ye's steel export business had just touched upon the interests of a steel company in City A.
Although they will not take the initiative to frame you, it is human nature to give you a push at this time.
Liang Qing naturally accepted it with pleasure and took this opportunity to short sell a lot of Ye's shares, preparing to use the money to buy Shixing's shares.
Now the original public opinion event has turned into a business event. Although the Ye family has the support of the Qin family, netizens have been fed with a bite of business struggle melon while eating the thunderstorm melon.
This made netizens very excited. They didn’t care who had the upper hand. They just wanted to get to the bottom of it.
But Qin Shi and Ye’s employees care.
And Anyang is naturally included.
Anyang was already worried when he saw the company's stock price showing a downward trend. When he saw that President Ye had been in the office and had not returned, he began to worry about the company's situation.
That day, when Anyang saw Teacher Qin going to Africa for aid construction, he couldn't help but burst out laughing like everyone else, but he didn't expect that the incident that day would become such a big deal.
Even though he knew that in the business world, there were fewer people who helped others when they were in need and more people who took advantage of others’ misfortunes, he had not expected that there would be so many people who would take advantage of others’ misfortunes.
Even Liang Qing, who had been hanging out with Xu Feng before, got involved, and didn't even give Xu Feng any face.
Although there were always orders, both the company's stock price and Mr. Ye's behavior of not going home made the employees lose some confidence, and the atmosphere in the company gradually became impetuous.
Although Anyang also thought of some tricks, he could only barely stabilize the atmosphere in the company.
Anyang has no way to deal with the company's stock price.
Anyang sat in his seat, hesitating for a long time. Even when it came to what happened to Xu Feng at the concert, Anyang just glanced at it quickly and passed it by.
"Maybe it's to confess to Yuncheng brother, but also because I feel sorry for those fans."
This thought flashed through Anyang's mind, and then he began to nervously look at the company's stock price and financial news reports.
The more he looked at Anyang, the more nervous he felt. After all, he was not the kind of assistant who had experienced many battles. Just looking at Mr. Ye's tired eyes, he finally didn't say anything. He could only start to worry about these problems at his workstation.
However, Anyang couldn't find a good solution after searching for a long time. Just as he was about to sigh and turn off the computer, a video call suddenly popped up on his WeChat.
There are two words written on the contact.
"dad?"
Ten minutes later.
“…Are you kidding me?!”
For the first time, Anyang shouted at the An family's parents across the street in a tone that was almost cursing.
"Brother Xu Feng and I just divorced, and he just managed to get rid of me and pursue Yun Cheng, and you actually threatened him again, and even found Aunt Xu and the others to help you?!"
Anyang said in disbelief.
He had been divorced from Brother Xu Feng for a month, and he had also informed his family. At first, his family's reaction was indeed a bit intense, but as time passed, things gradually calmed down.
I thought this matter was over and everyone was doing well, so why do you suddenly want to match him with Xu Feng?
Hearing Anyang's voice, An's parents first glanced at Anyang subconsciously, and then realized that Anyang was not someone they could control, so they spoke in a soft voice.
"It's not us who are threatening him. It's Xu Feng, the good boy, who finally knows who is the best person for him. He wanted to confess his love to you at the concert before, but was beaten by his fans. He can be considered a prodigal son who has returned. Anyang, you should give him a chance."
When Mr. An said this, his mother also echoed him. They both had gentle smiles on their faces, just like the smiles they used to show to their partners.
At this time, Xu's parents also spoke gently, with a respectful smile on their faces that Anyang had never seen before.
"We've already severely disciplined that brat, Afeng. He divorced you purely because he was fooled by that Yuncheng. Anyang, we know you've always been a good child and have always liked Xufeng. For your aunt's sake, can you give Xufeng a chance to pursue you?"
Xu's mother spoke very nicely and gave Anyang enough face. She did not demand Anyang and Xu Feng to remarry as forcefully as An's parents did. She just said to give them a chance.
Not only did she say this, she also gestured to Xu Feng, who was a little depressed, to speak.
"Anyang..."
Xu Feng called Anyang affectionately.
He looked much more haggard than before, and the dark circles under his eyes were quite obvious, showing that he had not slept well during this period.
Anyang knew a little about the reason. It was probably because the confession at the concert angered the fans, which caused Xu Feng to be under great mental pressure.
However, Anyang did not feel the same heartache as before. On the contrary, he felt a little annoyed when he saw Xu Feng's haggard expression.
This matter was caused by Xu Feng himself, and it also hurt his fans. If Xu Feng wants to remarry me at this time, it will definitely be a second harm to his fans.
--etc.
Anyang suddenly had an idea.
Could it be that Xu Feng wanted to use me as his shield in order to prevent Yun Cheng from being exposed and cyber-bullied by fans?
This kind of thing has happened before.
In addition, the Ye family is in a precarious situation now. If they can take this opportunity to expose Brother Xu Feng's previous affairs, the Xu family will not have to worry about revenge from the Qin family.
The more Anyang thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case. His current position allowed him to obtain more information than before, and naturally he developed a keen sense of smell.
In the past, Anyang might have really agreed, but now...
Anyang looked at Xu Feng opposite him and felt genuine disgust.
Xu Feng didn't know what Anyang was thinking. He looked at Anyang opposite him greedily, licked his dry lips, and was about to make a passionate confession. However, he was interrupted by Anyang as soon as he opened his mouth.
"Anyang, I really just want to confess to you, but——"
"Brother Xu Feng, you don't need to tell me about your affairs. We are already divorced. If you want to use me as a shield for Brother Yun Cheng, I can clearly tell you now that this is impossible. We are all adults. Didn't you think about the consequences when you did this?"
Anyang said indifferently.
These words made the Xu and An families across from them stunned.
They hadn't had any contact with Anyang for half a year, and the last time they had a good talk was at Anyang and Xu Feng's wedding.
At that time, Anyang was still so cowardly and willing to sacrifice everything for Xu Feng, but now...
"I'm sorry, Aunt Xu. I won't be a shield for Brother Xu Feng. Besides, I've never liked Brother Xu Feng before. It was just an illusion."
Anyang laid everything out and said, not caring about the increasingly desperate look in Xu Feng's eyes.
"My parents are like that, and Brother Xu Feng is the only one who can talk to me nicely, so I naturally think I like him. But that's not right. He treats me better than my parents do. It's completely different from the respect that normal people show to others."
"Finally, the Ye family's situation is relatively stable. Aunt Xu should take Brother Xu Feng to Mr. Qin to sincerely apologize."
Looking at the boy on the other end of the video call who hung up the phone with an indifferent look on his face, both Xu's parents and An's parents asked a question from the bottom of their hearts.
——Who is this person?
Is it still Anyang?
That day, fierce cursing broke out in the Xu family's villa.
Anyang didn't know what the Xu and An families were thinking. He immediately forgot about the matter and started to worry about the company's affairs again.
But the situation, which had just stabilized, suddenly began to deteriorate again.
Various partners also began to attack the Ye family. Although the materials arrived on time, they could delay the process as much as possible, and the remaining small tricks were endless.
Anyang didn't understand what was happening at first.
It was not until his former friends in the circle secretly told him that it was the Xu family and the An family who were targeting the Ye family behind the scenes.
Although the Ye family is unlikely to fall, the Qin family is now too busy to deal with it, so the real thing is to get the meat in their mouths.
Anyang was so angry that he was shaking all over, but Ye Wangxing was relieved. What was supposed to happen had finally happened.
The mission is only three percent away from completion, which means Xu Feng will definitely cause trouble again.
Before, Ye Wangxing was a little worried about what this thing was, but now seeing that it was just these, he breathed a sigh of relief and turned to Yijiu and said.
[19th, the report letter can be released. It's the end of the year and I need to boost my performance for the tax bureau. Before that, I'll call the fire department to see how their store's fire safety measures are.]
In fact, Ye Wangxing did not sit idly by. He also knew that the An family and the Xu family were behind this matter, and of course there was also Liang Qing.
But his opponent is not the three of them, but the fate line. Now that the fate line has made its final struggle, Ye Wangxing can finally put away his fishing rod.
The tax bureau had a new leader at the end of the year, and the previous person who was under double supervision was sent to prison. The new leader was in the prime of his career, and the Xu and An families were already in turmoil, so the timing was just right.
In fact, Ye Wangxing had prepared some more damaging tactics, those legal but sick business warfare methods, waiting to be used when these companies submitted bids after the New Year.
But... I have to say, plans cannot keep up with changes.
Before there was any response to the letter of complaint sent to the tax bureau, Ye Wangxing saw himself on the news.
Oh, it’s not that his scandal became a trending topic.
——But his steel pipes were delivered to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
XX government forces protest to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs against X-country companies selling arms to rebels
Ye Wangxing looked at the familiar pictures in the news, then looked at the water pipes produced by his family, and slowly put up a question mark.
Me? Selling arms?
