Zhang Miaoke told her cousin a lot about Song Yuwei, asking him not to bother her anymore. Her cousin readily agreed, saying he would never disturb her life again, which relieved Zhang Miaoke.
However, it seems that this good fortune will not last long.
The next morning, when Song Yuwei went to work, she found a banner hanging at the company entrance that read, "I love you, Song Yuwei. Whether you are married or not, you have married someone you have no feelings for."
And then a bunch of reporters appeared out of nowhere, snapping photos and holding microphones, wanting to interview her. "Ms. Song, I heard you got married? Why do you still have suitors even though you're married? Do you know this suitor? Are you familiar with each other? Why is he so persistent in pursuing you?"
When did you two meet? Was it before or after you got married? Do you think marital fidelity is important, or is infidelity indifferent?
Song Yuwei felt like her head was about to explode. She never expected to run into something like this. She must have forgotten to check the almanac before going out today, because all the bad luck had come her way.
More and more people gathered at the company entrance, all of them having heard the commotion and coming to see what was going on.
She rubbed her temples, her head aching. "I am indeed married, but I'm not that familiar with this so-called suitor. We're practically strangers, and I've already clearly told him I'm married. She's the one who's harassing me."
The reporters were all a little surprised. "But that gentleman said that you two have been in love for a long time, and that you have always been a goddess in his heart?"
Song Yuwei pressed her temples, feeling her head throb even more.
Why is this guy spouting nonsense and making things up?
Just at this critical moment, Zhang Miaoke's cousin finally emerged from the flames. No one knew where he had gone before; he had simply left behind a banner.
Now Song Yuwei saw that he was holding two particularly large "囍" (double happiness) characters in his hand.
"I know you married someone you don't love, and you two never even dated. But since it's come to this, I still wish you a happy marriage. These two 'double happiness' characters are my wedding gift to you, so please accept them."
The scene became increasingly chaotic. The onlookers started clapping, and many began taking videos with their phones and uploading them online. They all thought the scene was too exciting and too dramatic, completely beyond the comprehension of normal people.
This suitor not only didn't mind that she was married, but he also pursued her openly, confessed his love to her, and even attracted a group of reporters who held up two "double happiness" characters to wish her a happy marriage. This is simply the behavior of a mentally ill person.
The matter quickly spread online.
Mrs. Jiang, who was sitting at home, was unusually relaxed today. She didn't go to the company or to meet with her group of wealthy friends. Instead, she leisurely read the newspaper.
It wasn't because she wasn't busy today, but because she was waiting for a phone call, a very important one. When the call came, she put it on speakerphone so that Grandpa Jiang next to her could hear the conversation.
"Madam, right now the internet is full of stories about the young mistress being pursued by other men."
Madam Jiang frowned, feigning confusion. "What did you say? Where did Yu Wei get suitors? Isn't she already married? And how did this get onto the internet?"
The person on the other end continued, "This morning, a man put up a banner at the entrance of the young mistress's company, saying that even though she got married, he still liked her very much. He even went so far as to send her a 'double happiness' character to wish her a happy marriage. This move shocked many people and went viral online, attracting more and more attention."
"I find this so funny and hilarious, and many people already know that the young mistress and our young master are getting married!"
Madam Jiang stared in shock, her eyes wide. "What did you say? Wouldn't that make the Jiang family lose all face? How can this be allowed? Get the car ready right now, I need to go ask Yuwei what exactly happened?"
The person on the other end of the phone nodded, and Mrs. Jiang hung up.
Then, she looked at Grandpa Jiang.
"I never expected this to happen, Lao Jiang."
Grandpa Jiang's face was tense, and he didn't say a word, seemingly very angry.
Madam Jiang knew very well that he absolutely hated Song Yuwei. After all, he was someone who disliked scandals and being the center of attention so much, and now his son and daughter-in-law had been posted online and become trending topics.
How could he possibly tolerate this?
"That was my secretary calling. She's probably almost at our doorstep. I have some things to take care of today, but this isn't as important as this. I'll go see Yuwei first and see what she has to say."
Grandpa Jiang slammed his hand on the table. "What else can we say? She's done something so shameless, what else can she say? Go ask her what she's thinking, whether she can continue living like this. Also, tell Lin Huali to ask him what's going on with his niece."
Besides, isn't their family keen on that project lately? Let's just forget about it! I really don't have a good impression of them anyway. Let's leave it at that.
Mrs. Jiang nodded, then stood up, grabbed her bag, and went out. After she left the Jiang family home, she saw her secretary at the door.
As she got into the car, her secretary said to her, "How was it, Madam? Was what I said just now acceptable? However, this arrangement is likely to arouse suspicion. After all, how could that man possibly know that the young mistress and our young master have no emotional foundation in their marriage?"
Sooner or later someone will become suspicious and investigate, so we should try to be as discreet as possible, and it would be best to find a scapegoat, otherwise, they might find us eventually.
Madam Jiang nodded.
“Of course I know that, and I also know who would be a better scapegoat.”
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but smile.
That smile was like a wicked flower blooming, extremely glaring to the eye, yet she smiled very happily.
No one knows who she has chosen as a scapegoat, but the truth will soon come out.
Lin Huali is currently at the company discussing a project with someone. The person in charge of the project has done a great job, but the partner is still very picky, making this request and that request, which can be said to be making their company run around in circles.
Their project manager and supervisor couldn't handle it, so they had to bring in Lin Huali, this big shot, to discuss it. But that person wasn't afraid at all, and even said that if it really didn't work out, then they shouldn't cooperate.
However, this project is almost finished, and terminating the cooperation now would only result in significant losses.
