Lin Shen had a very happy time these two days.
When Lin Fuyu returned home, she saw Lin Shen holding a cell phone with a look of joy on his face, so she asked, "Son, why are you so happy?"
Lin Shen looked at his father, pursed his lips, and said with a little excitement, "Yes, I'm happy!"
Lin Fuyu was very happy when he saw his beloved son like this. "Are you short of money recently? Dad will call you."
"No need!" Lin Shen answered loudly. As he was talking, he didn't know what news he had read, and he became shy again. "Oh, let's not talk about it, Dad. I have to go and get busy first."
Lin Fuyu watched him run very fast, rushed to the study, and shouted, "What are you doing?"
“Looking for a book!”
Lin Fuyu: “……?”
He looked at the time. Today was Monday. His son said he had no classes these days, which was why he flew directly from the capital to Ancheng the day before yesterday to attend the charity gala.
Since it was Monday, could it be that my son had some homework assigned to him by school? But the problem was that the books on the wall of the study room in this house in Ancheng were all miscellaneous books - completely unrelated to my son's major.
Lin Fu Yu was puzzled and couldn't help but follow him upstairs. She saw Lin Shen find a novel with an exquisite cover on the bookshelf.
Maybe his son didn’t see him? Even if he did, he was too busy to pay attention to him.
Lin Shen took a few photos, sent them to someone unknown, and also sent a voice message.
“I found it.”
"This is the author-signed edition that I snapped up five years ago. Look, there's Xianyuan's signature on the first page."
"The autographed edition seemed to be in very small quantities at the time," Lin Shen recalled. When he was fourteen years old, he learned that the first volume of the novel was going to be published. He was so happy that he called on his brothers to buy the autographed edition for him. "Me? I found someone to help me buy almost three or four copies." They were all placed in the study of his home in the capital.
As for how the book got from the capital to Ancheng, Lin Shen didn't quite remember. He loved reading when he traveled, and Kindle and paper books were must-haves.
Possibly? That's how it was. I was running back and forth from the capital to Ancheng, and I accidentally left a book behind, so I put it away in the study.
Yan Yongwang looked at the photos sent by Lin Shen.
After a best-selling online novel becomes famous, a publishing house will usually contact it to publish it.
When "The Ruthless Way" was not yet finished and the whole book was only about 700,000 to 800,000 words, there was a plan to publish several parts.
Based on the text volume of one million words, the original plan for "The Ruthless Way" was to publish 1-3 volumes.
But currently on the market only?
There was a first part, but apparently the publishing house was unable to contact the author, so the plan was temporarily suspended.
He clicked on the photo.
The book was beautifully written, the pages were slightly yellow, and in the blank space, there were two very familiar words.
"Fate of Immortality".
Yan Yongwang exhaled slowly, thinking, his mother is really...
She had been secretly running a side business for more than ten years while he wasn't paying attention, and he just found out about it now?
The signature on the page was obviously written by Ms. Shi Xianyuan herself.
He was not very familiar with the word "xian", but he was very familiar with the word "yuan".
When he was in elementary school, every time the teacher handed out papers to his children, he would ask parents to sign them, and it was often Shi Xianyuan who signed for him.
His mother had beautiful handwriting, with graceful characters. The last stroke of the word "缘" was a little longer, and he was used to putting a small dot after signing.
The author of "The Ruthless Way" signed it personally, and there is also a small dot at the end.
There is no need to guess any further, to know that what he had imagined was correct.
——His mother, Ms. Shi Xianyuan, had been writing novels without telling him for ten years. He did not discover this secret until one day when his parents passed away by chance.
If he hadn't walked into the bathroom that day because of the time difference in transformation, hadn't been bumped into by the delivery man, hadn't met Wang Chi...
Will he never discover this secret?
Yan Yongwang thought calmly, and soon he came to the answer - no, he would find out one day.
Because his mother asked Wang Chi to make this movie - this means that the movie adapted from "The Ruthless" is destined to be a big hit. Wang Chi is good at shooting commercial films and is also a well-known "Golden Hand" in the industry. Every script that passes through his hands becomes a hit.
Regardless of whether he got the role of "Hua Rongying" in the interview or not, in the future he would learn about the novel "The Merciless Dao" and even the movie adapted from it from his subordinates and friends.
Yan Yongwang didn't have the habit of reading novels in the past. He spent a lot of time watching movies at home and only liked to watch the latest popular TV series and movies.
Text is different from audio and video. The former requires full concentration to read, while the latter allows you to do other things while reading - you don't have to watch the pictures, but as long as there is sound, you can actually understand the plot.
Yan Yongwang is used to watching TV series and movies in his spare time.
For him, audio and video input is a simpler and more relaxing way than text input.
Both his parents knew about his habit.
His mind was racing with thoughts, and he was upset. In fact, he was already 80% to 90% sure that Xianyuan was Shi Xianyuan, but when the truth was in front of him, Yan Yongwang backed off a bit.
He didn't understand why his whole family kept this secret from him - there was no need to guess whether his father knew about it. He and his mother had a deep relationship and were very close to each other, so how could he not know that his wife had published a novel on a literary website and even had the novel published?
Even later on, all the means used to conceal the identity of "Xianyuan" in real life were probably Yan Chi's doing.
Yan Yongwang blinked blankly. He sat quietly in his office chair, tapping the edge of the table with his fingers.
He couldn't understand why his parents kept it from him, but he had a rough idea of their intentions.
Three years ago, the plane crashed and no one was left. He bought a cemetery in Ancheng according to his parents' wishes. Only their old clothes and a few photos were placed in the cemetery.
Three years - according to Wang Chi's filming time, if nothing unexpected happens, the movie can be released within one or two years. By then, he will get the name "Wuqingdao" from various channels.
Yan Yongwang has the habit of binge-watching and likes to watch some popular TV series while doing so. So there is a 70 to 80 percent chance that he will use video software to watch this movie after it is released in theaters.
Then what.
He will discover the pseudonym of the author of the original work of this movie.
Then you will find that this pen name is very similar to his mother Shi Xianyuan's name.
All clues will guide him to explore this secret, and then he will try his best to investigate. It seems to be back to the problem that is bothering him now, what exactly do they want to do and what do they want to tell him?
Did they just want him to finish the story?
But if that were the case, when Shi Xianyuan started writing "The Ruthless Way", she could have invited Yan Yongwang to read it. He loved her so much that he would only read the story carefully and applaud and cheer for her like an ordinary reader.
He has always been willing to participate in every family activity, and naturally he is happy to be her first little reader.
With mixed thoughts, Yan Yongwang stared at his phone quietly. Lin Shen's messages kept popping up.
Lin Shen: "Sister Chao Juan, if you also want a signed copy of The Merciless Way, I can send one to you."
…
He sent something again, but Yan Yongwang was distracted and didn't reply for a long time.
Until there was a knock on the door, two loud bangs, which woke him up.
It was Shen He who asked, "Boss, can I come in?"
"Come in?"
Yan Yongwang turned the spare phone over and placed it on the table.
Chen He walked in and said in a gentle voice, "There is a project in Ling City that needs me to fly over tonight to handle it."
"What's wrong?"
Shen He looked a little tired, "There was a magnitude 7 earthquake in Ling City two hours ago."
Yan Yongwang's face turned slightly cold: "Is it serious?"
He immediately understood what Chen He meant: Ling City is a popular holiday resort in recent years. Tourists like the undecorated local scenery of Ling City, where the terrain is high and there are many mountains. He just approved a contract for the development of a resort hotel in Ling City last year, and the location is next to the valley. Today is a working day, and normally the workers are working in the hotel. The earthquake in Ling City means that there is a high possibility of casualties in the hotels near the valley.
"Fortunately, there are no casualties. I have asked the project manager in charge of that project to get ready and go to the hotel with me to take a look at the situation."
"If the situation is serious, our project may have to be delayed for several years before it can resume work."
After a strong earthquake, it may not be easy to resume construction.
There are more procedures to go through than before the earthquake. Chen He gave him a shot of prevention: "I don't think it will be possible to resume work in the next one or two years."
"Lingshi earthquake, are there serious casualties?"
Shen He shook his head: "It's okay, it's not serious."
Yan Yongwang: "You can? You don't have to go."
He looked at Shen He with a serious look, "You are my secretary, there is no need to do everything yourself."
Chen He was stunned for a moment, and he subconsciously said: "That project is worth over 100 million yuan..." Of course he had to go, whether it was how to deal with the project after the earthquake, or to discuss in detail with government departments when to resume work, he was needed to do it.
"I? I don't agree with you going now." Yan Yongwang ignored him and motioned for him to bring his cell phone over.
Chen He had no choice but to hand the phone to him.
He flipped through Shen He’s phone and called the local manager in charge of the project.
He first asked about the situation in Ling City. When the manager was obviously a little surprised, Yan Yongwang asked, "Are there any aftershocks in Ling City now?"
Manager: "Boss, there haven't been any yet, but it seems that the news reported that there will be aftershocks in a few hours."
"Besides, there are many mountains in Ling City. The weather forecast says it will rain. I'm afraid there will be landslides..."
Yan Yongwang was using an external projection, he said, looking sternly at Chen He.
"Okay, arrange for the workers in the hotel to calm their emotions and pay attention to their personal safety."
"Chen He told you that he was going to fly to Ling City today to deal with this matter, right?"
The manager noticed the unhappiness in his tone and said quickly: "I have advised Secretary Shen, he said he was afraid that I couldn't handle it, so he wanted to share the burden with me."
"I also know that my ability may not be enough, but let's talk about this situation. There are aftershocks and it's going to rain. I'm afraid that Secretary Shen will come here and something unexpected will happen..."
Yan Yongwang's tone was icy. He laughed and said to the manager, "Don't worry about him. I've detained him."
"Let's put the project on hold for now. It's not like I can't afford to spend this little money."
Manager: “Okay, okay.”
Yan Yongwang's tone softened, "Thank you for your help, but please be safe no matter what."
The manager was flattered. When he hung up the phone, he stared at the phone in a daze, thinking: Their Yan's CEO is not as unkind as he imagined! He originally thought that the CEO was young, cold-tempered, and harsh in his words, but on the phone, the CEO even asked about his concern...
How should I put it? Just imagine that a handsome CEO is talking to him - that feeling, that feeling, it's unbearable!
After hanging up the phone, Yan Yongwang looked at Chen He silently.
Chen He didn't know why he was a little afraid of his gaze - it was like seeing him three years ago, when the young master of their Yan family had a blank look and no expression after learning that the plane had crashed into the sea.
"There was an earthquake today, and you want to work on the project."
"Don't you want to live anymore?"
Yan Yongwang spoke each word slowly, and after he finished speaking, he seemed to be waiting for his answer.
Chen He was a little bit at a loss for a moment. He curled up his fingers hanging by his side nervously and said dryly: "...I didn't think too much at the moment."
Yan Yongwang closed his eyes and sighed very softly.
He didn't look at him again, waved his hand, and signaled him to take his phone and leave.
I really don't want to talk to him.
Although he was nine years younger than him, Chen He could feel his overwhelming indifference and majesty at this moment.
The expression on that face was indifferent and the tone was heavy.
He stood there at a loss, not wanting to leave for fear that his boss would sulk in the office.
"Boss—me?—"
"I know that you want to help me solve my problems." Yan Yongwang lowered his eyes and stared at the documents on the table, and said calmly. He was not a fool, so how could he not understand Chen He's thoughts.
After his parents passed away, Shen He taught him how to take over the company's affairs, and when he was finally able to take over smoothly, he did not forget his duties as a secretary and became a "frequent flyer", spending a few days every month in other cities.
The question is, is this his job?
Indeed, it is his job?
No one can deny this.
Chen He treated Yan's as carefully and attentively as if he were treating his own business.
Yan Yongwang was moved, loved and close to him.
But he didn't like Shen He's reckless attitude, and would do it himself whenever something went wrong.
"But have you ever thought about what would happen to you again?"
Yan Yongwang raised his head, and his dark eyes were instantly filled with unspeakable pain. His breathing was slow and quiet, and his tone couldn't be calmer, "How should I deal with this?"
Shen He was stunned.
He was speechless for a long time.
Finally, he compromised and said very gently: "I'm sorry, I won't do it again next time."
The author has something to say: Today is the domineering president Yan Yan.
