The next day when Xie Yang woke up, Qiu Xing was no longer in the room. There was a red envelope on the bedside table with two large characters "Xie Yang" written in a flamboyant style on the front.
Xie Yang picked up the red envelope, touched the words on it, and opened it.
A card was revealed.
Including this one, Qiu Xing has given him three cards.
Wouldn't that be too generous?
Xie Yang found it funny. He got up and walked to his suitcase, put the red envelope carefully away, then took out the gift that he had prepared long ago at the bottom of the suitcase, stood up and looked around the room, and finally chose to put the gift into Qiu Xing's coat pocket.
While eating breakfast, Qiu Xing would glance at Jie Yang from time to time, looking like he wanted to say something but was holding it back. Xie Yang deliberately gave Qiu Xing a puzzled look, which made Qiu Xing so angry that his face remained sullen for the entire breakfast.
After breakfast, Qiu's mother gave a red envelope to Qiu Xing and Jie Yang respectively. Qiu Xing deliberately waved the red envelope in front of Jie Yang. Jie Yang pretended not to know, smiled and thanked Qiu's mother, and put the red envelope in his pocket.
“…”
Qiu Xing coughed hard.
Xie Yang asked with concern: "Does your throat feel uncomfortable?"
Qiu Xing raised the hand holding the red envelope and touched his neck, shook his head, then looked straight at Jie Yang.
Xie Yang: “Hmm?”
Qiu Xing was so angry that he turned around and went upstairs.
A few minutes later, Qiu Xing came downstairs, holding the coats that he and Jie Yang were going to wear today. His eyebrows were raised, but his expression was tense and seemed a little fierce. He walked up to Jie Yang and said strangely: "You..."
Xie Yang reached out and took his coat and put it on, then asked, "What about me?"
Qiu Xing couldn't help but curl up the corner of his mouth, snorted, and raised his hand to press Jie Yang's head.
"I'll let you go today."
After putting on clothes, the two carefully kept Qiu's mother warm, then pushed Qiu's mother to the car in a wheelchair and carefully placed her in it.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, everyone goes to sweep the grave of their enemy.
On the way to the cemetery, Xie Yang took out his cell phone and turned it on.
After the signal was connected, a lot of missed calls and unread messages came in all at once. The cell phone kept ringing, and Qiu's mother and Qiu Xing looked at Jie Yang together.
"Something about work." Xie Yang explained, then he turned the ringtone to silent and took a look at the message.
Most of the information was sent by Qin Cheng. Qin Cheng has been reporting the public opinion on Weibo in writing since last night, and did not stop until after four in the morning.
Xie Yang replied to Qin Cheng, saying thank you for your hard work, then exited WeChat and went onto Weibo.
After Qin Cheng's efforts for one night, the public opinion about Huangtian on Weibo successfully changed. Yesterday, several trending searches with Mu Zhouyi's name completely distorted the rhythm. After listening to the recording, netizens were angry and disgusted. After cursing He Rumin and his son, they flocked to Mu Zhouyi's Weibo and asked her not to release the recording secretly. They encouraged her to stand up and tell the truth and not to be afraid of He Rumin's suppression.
The internet trolls mingled in the comment section, pretending to be fans who felt sorry for Mu Zhouyi, and took the opportunity to whitewash the negative news about Mu Zhouyi some time ago, saying that those were all malicious acts by He Rumin in order to force Mu Zhouyi to submit.
Many netizens believed this statement, and Mu Zhouyi's image as a victim of "pitiful oppression", "the only female artist who dares to speak out", and "will never compromise and accept unspoken rules even if oppressed" gradually became established.
Last night, Mu Zhouyi’s solo performance was also captured by a marketing account and posted on Weibo, which received a lot of attention. Countless passers-by, either sincerely or influenced by the rhythm or the singing, praised Mu Zhouyi and cheered him on, saying that Mu Zhouyi was so talented that he was destined to succeed wherever he went and he didn't need to fear God at all.
At this point, public opinion has already placed Mu Zhouyi on a high pedestal.
Now there are only three options before Mu Zhouyi. Either follow the trend and really break up with He Ruming, or clarify that the recording was not sent by her and then be mocked by the netizens who have high expectations of her, or pretend to be dead and never show up.
No matter which one Mu Zhouyi chooses, what awaits her is a loss of reputation.
The phone suddenly vibrated and Ji Zehui called. Jie Yang took out his headphones, plugged them in, and clicked to connect.
"You finally started the camera!" Ji Zehui said excitedly, like a machine gun, "Mu Zhouyi is so stupid that I am shocked. When He Rumin received the news you asked him to pass on yesterday, he didn't believe it at first. He thought that it was the little celebrity who committed suicide who was causing trouble. He tried to find connections everywhere to completely ban the little celebrity and suppress the hidden rules!"
"As a result, when the recording last night and Mu Zhouyi's several trending searches came out, He Rumin went crazy. I really can't understand why Mu Zhouyi would stir up trouble when Huangtian wanted to suppress the trending searches. Doesn't she want to get involved? This move is really stupid. Could it be that she has found another employer who can protect her, so she doesn't care?"
"She's not stupid, I made her stupid."
“…”
Ji Zehui's tone suddenly became calm and cautious, and he said, "Huangtian Chairman was originally trying to find a way to protect He Rumin and his son, but after the recording came out, the heat could not be suppressed at all, so he had to abandon the car to save the king. He Rumin had no way to deal with Huangtian's decision, and now he is looking for Mu Zhouyi everywhere. I think the two of them are going to fight each other."
What we want is dog bite dog.
Xie Yang was satisfied and praised: "You did a good job. When the Huangtian incident is resolved, I will let Lawyer Yang Xing contact you. If possible, I hope you can take Xiao Jin away as well."
Ji Zehui readily agreed: "No problem, no problem. Xiao Jin and I have a good relationship. If I leave, he will definitely leave too."
"By the way, see if Huangtian has any talents worth recruiting. Contact them in advance and take away all those who can be taken away when the time comes."
Ji Zehui choked and said, "You...you want to take advantage of the situation."
"No way? Have you forgotten how Emperor Tian blocked Yangxing's resources in the first place? It's just tit for tat."
Okay, okay, of course. Ji Zehui tactfully accepted the task that had been assigned to him for no apparent reason and hung up the phone.
After chatting with Ji Zehui, Xie Yang sent a few more messages to Liu Sha, asking her to contact Ji Zehui and prepare in advance to dig resources from Huangtian.
"What are you planning again?"
Xie Yang came back to his senses, turned his head to look at Qiu Xing, and replied: "New Year, new atmosphere, I plan to fill up the few empty floors of Yangxing."
Qiu Xing calmed down, and after a while he suddenly said, "If we visit the grave later..."
Xie Yang waited for a long time but got no further news, so he asked, "What's going on?"
Qiu Xing didn't say anything. He just reached over Qiu's mother and held Jie Yang's hand, kneading it gently, looking like he was thinking about something.
…
The car slowly stopped at the entrance of the cemetery. Xie Yang and Qiu Xing moved Qiu's mother out of the car and placed her in a wheelchair, then pushed her into the cemetery.
Qiu's father was buried in the inner part of the cemetery, next to other deceased members of his family.
When the three of them arrived, many of the enemy's relatives had already gathered in the cemetery. Seeing Qiu Xing, the relatives came forward to greet him.
Qiu Xing reacted coldly. He simply replied with a greeting and then ignored everyone else. He pushed Qiu's mother to Qiu's father's grave. Qiu's mother never looked at those people from beginning to end. She just stared at Qiu's father's tombstone.
Most of Qiu's side relatives left tactfully, but Qiu Jingbang and his son refused to leave. He looked at the elderly Qiu's mother and said to Qiu Xing, "Ah Xing, you are my superior in the company, so I can't say anything. But now we are standing in front of Qiu's ancestors, and I want to ask you a question. You suddenly left for a long time abroad some time ago. Could it be that... your health is not good?"
Qiu Xing didn't even look at Qiu Jingbang and said, "The F Continent branch is in need of a manager. Do you want to go?"
A blatant threat, without giving any face at all.
Qiu Jingbang's expression darkened, and he turned his gaze to Li Yang and said, "How come a stranger showed up when we, the Qiu family, were visiting the graves?"
Xie Yang smiled.
Qiu Jingbang frowned: "What are you laughing at."
“It’s funny that some people always hope that others will die soon, but they don’t check whether their own bodies are about to fail.”
In the original plot, Qiu Jingbang also jumped around like this, but he didn't jump around for long before he got so angry that he suffered a cerebral hemorrhage and was admitted to the hospital. Not long after, he died, leaving behind a useless son who had to inherit the debt he left behind in Rongding. In the end, he couldn't make it and became a pawn bought by Feng Qinglin.
In Xie Yang's eyes, Qiu Jingbang was just a cannon fodder of the lowest level.
Qiu Jingbang didn't expect that Jie Yang, a young man who was bought, would dare to curse him. He was so angry that he opened his mouth to scold him.
"Jingbang." Qiu's mother spoke in a calm voice, speaking slowly, "You are so talkative in front of the ancestors and your eldest brother. Aren't you afraid that they will come to talk to you at night?"
Qiu Jingbang's face twitched. He didn't dare to offend Qiu's mother, so he left with his son with a dark face.
After sweeping the grave and returning to the car, Qiu's mother suddenly said, "Qiu Jingbang is too careless. Don't keep it. After meeting the ancestors today, you should also give Yangyang an explanation as soon as possible. Don't let him suffer injustice for no reason."
Upon hearing this, Xie Yang looked towards Qiu Xing, who was also looking at him. The two looked at each other briefly, and then Qiu Xing looked away first and replied, "I know, don't worry, Mom."
…
At around two o'clock in the afternoon, the dog-eat-dog drama began.
Under strong public pressure, Huangtian’s official Weibo account released an apology announcement. In the announcement, Huangtian put all the blame for the unspoken rules on He Xun and He Ruming, saying that the company was completely unaware of the two’s behavior and that it would hold He Xun and He Ruming accountable for their legal responsibilities.
Not long after that, He Rumin and He Xun came out to hold a press conference. At the meeting, He Rumin, as a representative, apologized for all the things that had happened in the past few days. He said that he had let the company down and was sorry to the little star. He said that all the mistakes were his and he would take on the responsibilities that he should bear. His words were very sincere.
But after the press conference, He Rumin immediately used his personal account to expose a large amount of chat content with female artists from the same company, including Mu Zhouyi.
In the records, Mu Zhouyi affectionately called He Rumin "Brother Min", openly and covertly asked He Rumin for resources, and was reluctant to accept He Rumin's provocative words, which was completely inconsistent with his clean character in yesterday's hot search.
After posting the record, He Rumin wrote: I feel sorry for many people, but those people in the picture below, you all know what kind of people you are! Especially Mu Zhouyi, I once thought about winning your heart, but you want to use me and run away? No way!
Once these chat records were released, Weibo was almost paralyzed again.
The netizens who were watching the show were stunned. How much they admired Mu Zhouyi's "clear stream" before, now they were disgusted by her hypocrisy. They flocked to Mu Zhouyi's Weibo and asked her to come out and respond to those chat records.
…
Xie Yang closed Weibo, opened WeChat, and clicked on Qin Cheng's account.
Jie Yang: Delete the recording that was first exposed. The new song will be released at 8pm and available on the entire internet for free.
Mu Zhouyi has already fallen. It is time to detoxify and brainwash those who have been bewitched by Mu Zhouyi's voice.
