Chapter 88 Chapter 88 (Second update at 18:00) His hand...
The man's broad palm pressed against her thin skin, causing waves of numbness and itchiness, as if a weak electric current was passing through her, making her heart tremble.
The woman was carried to sit on the desk, and the silver high-heeled shoe on her right foot fell to the ground. Her jade-white bare feet were hanging in the air on the edge of the desk.
The man's hand held her ankle and rubbed it, as if he was carefully checking if there was any injury. Then his palm covered the entire instep... From the slender ankle upwards, Lin Keying felt the man holding her soft calf tightly, exploring and examining all the way.
The wheat-colored skin disappeared under the blue skirt, leaving only a section of strong and muscular forearm visible.
Lin Keying held down the man's hand, and seeing that he looked calm and confident, she almost wanted to bite off a piece of his flesh out of shame and anger.
"Cheng Wanting, don't think about using the newspaper to go crazy, you..."
Cheng Wanting remained calm as he moved gently under her skirt. Wherever his fingertips touched, he could easily feel the trembling of her skin. "It's written in black and white in the newspaper that you're injured. Of course, they won't write anything else. Since I'm a 'personal' secretary, how can I not check for my boss?"
He emphasized the word "close".
Feeling the man's fingers moving upwards, Lin Keying's mind suddenly flashed back to some blushing scenes. She had not had any intimate actions with this man for almost a month.
Cheng Wanting's fingers are long, with distinct joints, as hard as he is, but with a bit more flexibility.
Faced with the secretary who abused his power for personal gain, Lin Keying could no longer tolerate it. She kicked out with her bare feet and went straight to the man's lower body.
The man grasped her jade foot with a lot of force and held it tightly. Cheng Wanting lowered his eyebrows and chuckled: "Are you going to murder your husband?"
Lin Keying took this opportunity to get rid of the man's abuse of power for personal gain, jumped off the desk, landed barefoot, and glared at him: "Secretary Cheng, as a subordinate, you dare to molest your superior, believe it or not, I will call security!"
Cheng Wanting said righteously: "As a subordinate, I work hard to worry about my superior getting hurt. Shouldn't I be rewarded?"
Lin Keying: "..."
A man who is good at sophistry is really scary. Lin Keying stepped on the ground barefoot, ready to bend down and put on her high heels: "If you keep touching me like this, I will have the police put you in jail. Ms. Zhao taught me her experience. There is still justice in the Hongcheng Police Station."
"Oh?" Cheng Wanting slowly bent down, one knee tapping the ground, one hand holding the silver high-heeled shoes to Lin Keying's feet, the other hand touching the woman's beautiful white arch, "Ms. Zhao asked you to play with me and even gave me money to get rid of me, did you listen to that?"
As expected, he heard it!
Lin Keying turned her face away unnaturally: "Ms. Zhao is right. We can't give a secretary with ill intentions the opportunity to take over."
As she spoke, Lin Keying lowered her eyebrows and glanced at the man who was kneeling on one knee beside her like a giant. She felt him holding her foot and gently putting it into his high-heeled shoe.
She moved slightly, trying to break free from the man's restraining grip, but was held even tighter.
The man was strong and domineering and wanted to put on shoes for himself.
"You..." Just as she was about to stop the personal secretary from doing anything inappropriate, Lin Keying suddenly heard an excited call, followed by the sound of the office door being opened from the outside.
——"Sister-in-law, there is great news!"
Cheng Min rushed in excitedly, and without having time to think about anything, he wanted to share the good news with his sister-in-law.
only...
The scene in his sister-in-law's office left Cheng Min stunned.
His serious and stern elder brother, who had always been dignified and never bowed, was now kneeling on one knee, holding his sister-in-law's jade-white bare feet!
Her beautiful peach blossom eyes widened a little, and her red lips slightly parted, but Cheng Min could not utter a single syllable. She could only retreat awkwardly, and retreat again, until she was out of the office, leaving behind only a trembling word.
"Sister-in-law, brother, I'm leaving now, you guys go ahead and do your work."
Lin Keying lowered her eyebrows and glanced at the man, then looked at the door that was tightly closed by her considerate sister-in-law, and she couldn't help but have a headache.
Who can I go to for justice?
This is a real office!
——
A few minutes later, Cheng Min was invited into Lin Keying's office again.
The originally excited and lively little girl became a little restrained. She didn't dare to look around, especially not at her eldest brother.
Lin Keying noticed her sister-in-law's state and was worried that she was overthinking. Her cheeks flushed as she kicked the trouser leg of the man next to her, indicating that it was his own fault and he should explain himself.
Cheng Wanting was calm and asked a few questions about his sister's college life and homework. Due to Lin Keying's thin face, he explained: "I saw the news in the newspaper that your sister-in-law was injured, so I came to help check it out."
After seeing the newspaper this morning, Cheng Min called her sister-in-law to express her concern. She felt relieved to know that everything was fine.
However, I didn’t expect that my eldest brother would check it out himself before he felt relieved. My eldest brother and sister-in-law are so loving.
That's right, Cheng Min couldn't understand why her elder brother, while checking his sister-in-law for injuries, ended up squatting down and holding her bare feet.
Lin Keying listened to the man talking nonsense in a serious manner, without any embarrassment of being caught behaving outrageously. In the end, she considerately left the space for the two of them and left.
Lin Keying pretended to be calm and tried her best to appear dignified and gentle in front of her sister-in-law. In short, it was all the fault of this bastard and had nothing to do with her.
"Amin, what's the good news? I saw you were so excited just now."
Cheng Min collected his thoughts and brought up business: "Sister-in-law, Richard, the British modernist painting master, visited Hong Kong and gave a lecture at our school. As a representative of the school's art painting club, I had a conversation with him. I heard that he was interested in holding an exhibition in Hong Kong and was looking for a good exhibition hall, so I mentioned your circular exhibition hall."
The Xitian Building designed by Lin Keying has a circular corridor exhibition hall on the first floor, facing the blue sky and white clouds, with a glass plank walkway underfoot, which is novel and unique.
Master Richard has held exhibitions in too many solemn and serious exhibition halls, and he was very interested in Cheng Min's introduction.
"Amin!" Lin Keying naturally didn't want to miss such a good opportunity. The exhibition of an internationally renowned painting master would be a great help in enhancing the reputation of the building and attracting attention and popularity. "You are really my good baby!"
The sister-in-law casually secured a good opportunity for her own building. She is so much cuter than her big brother!
Through the introduction of middleman Cheng Min, Xitian Building quickly finalized an exclusive exhibition plan with British painter Richard, standing out from the competition among many art galleries in Hong Kong.
Yang Qiuhui was in charge of the preparatory project for the exhibition and needed to liaise with Richard. Cheng Min, as the middleman, was also specially hired by Lin Keying to coordinate.
Cheng Min was embarrassed to hear that her sister-in-law wanted to pay her a salary: "Sister-in-law, no need. I just want to see more art paintings and learn from Master Richard. You don't need to pay me anything."
Lin Keying insisted on doing things impartially: "How can that be possible? I'm a good boss and I can't treat you unfairly! Just take it if I give it to you."
The art exhibition will open at the end of this month and will last for a week. It will include three treasures by Master Richard worth more than 30 million US dollars. At that time, the Hong Kong Governor's Police Station will also send police to intervene and protect the rare paintings, and the rare paintings will be exchanged throughout the process.
The news that Xitian Building will host a contemporary master's masterpiece exhibition was published in the newspapers and became a hot topic. Many celebrities and wealthy businessmen were asking about invitations and tickets for the exhibition.
The other page of the newspaper continued to report negative news about Hongsheng Entertainment Company.
An accident occurred during filming, a high-rise railing collapsed, the boss of Hongsheng Company and an actress were injured after falling down the building, the crew stopped working, and Hongsheng's stock price plummeted...
The more negative the public opinion is, the lower the confidence of investors is. Amid the sell-off, Hongsheng seems to be unable to recover and will decline.
There were even some media outlets that anonymously attributed the decline of Hongsheng Entertainment to its new boss, a woman in her early twenties who had no knowledge of the entertainment industry at all.
Whether it's the heavily invested TV drama project that had the accident, or the new screenwriter and new male lead used in it...it's all nonsense no matter how you look at it.
Faced with a newspaper that fiercely criticized her, Lin Keying simply laughed it off and even seriously appreciated the wording in the newspaper, which was written in the style of the Spring and Autumn Period.
The Hong Kong media still has its value, with explosive headlines, sharp language, and is well aware of the double standards of setting the pace and attracting attention, so there is no need to worry about sales.
However, the stronger this fire burns, the better. No one knows who will be burned in the end.
Lin Keying called Yang Qiuhui and told her to call the police: "Take these evidences and arrest Liu Chengchuan first."
In the past few days, she deliberately did not touch Liu Chengchuan, and only arranged a few people to secretly monitor his movements to prevent him from running away.
Now, it's time to close the net.
Lin Keying did not get angry but laughed instead when faced with a newspaper that set her own pace, but someone else was different.
Yang Minghui looked at the eldest young master's stern expression and observed three minutes of silence for the Hong Kong Morning Post in his heart.
"Master, this article in the Hong Kong Morning Post was written at the behest of Crown Entertainment's CEO, Gu Yongfeng, in order to throw dirty water on Madam."
Yang Minghui investigated it clearly in less than one morning. He found out that Crown Entertainment Company was eyeing Hongsheng Entertainment covetously, trying to take a bite of the fat meat, or even swallow up the entire Hongsheng.
The new boss of Hongsheng is naturally the main target of attack.
Cheng Wanting glanced at the eye-catching words in the newspaper. Every word was guiding and criticizing the new boss of Hongsheng for pretending to be knowledgeable and ruining an old entertainment company. He was simply a jinx.
In Hong Kong, a city that is particularly superstitious, this rhythm works wonders.
Cheng Wanting tapped the newspaper with his fingertips, his eyes sharp: "Go dig up all the details of Gu Yongfeng's ancestors, this guy is not clean."
Yang Minghui responded reluctantly and continued to mourn in his heart.
++++
Hongsheng Entertainment Company has been on the headlines of newspapers for four consecutive days and has been the subject of controversy. Coupled with all kinds of superstition and metaphysics, its stock price has continued to fall.
The astute Lin Keying has already discovered that Crown Entertainment has acquired 8% of Hongsheng Entertainment's shares and is further encroaching on its holdings.
Gu Yongfeng, the CEO of Crown Entertainment, proudly smokes a cigar and is ambitiously preparing to acquire Hongsheng and build his own entertainment empire.
But the dream had not yet come true, as the police came to investigate.
Liang Zhengxuan led the team to the door, and he showed no fear in the face of the imposing boss: "Gu Yongfeng, we now suspect that you are involved in a murder case. Come back to the police station with us for investigation. You have the right to remain silent, but everything you say will be used as evidence in court."
Gu Yongfeng understood everything in an instant. It must be Liu Chengchuan who made a mistake. He calmed down and had a backup plan. He just took out his cigar and smiled, "Sir, you lead the way. You'd better be polite to me."
Liu Chengchuan was arrested because Tang Qiankun and Cheng Wanting's men took pictures of him meeting with Crown Entertainment at different times and angles, especially the key photo of him tampering with the corridor railings in the early morning of that day.
Liu Chengchuan had almost no room for excuses.
Liang Zhengxuan personally interrogated him and it took some effort for him to reveal the mastermind behind the scenes - Crown Entertainment, and successfully applied for an arrest warrant.
Gu Yongfeng, the CEO of Crown Entertainment, is a tough guy and a veteran. He seemed to have prepared an excuse long ago, and when he saw that it was irrefutable, he directly pushed the blame onto the prepared scapegoat.
Liang Zhengxuan interrogated him for a while, and then heard him say he wanted to arrange for a lawyer to come in. The big boss's style was obvious, he discussed everything with the lawyer.
In the end, Liang Zhengxuan, who could clearly see who the real mastermind was, could only arrest the scapegoat who confessed his guilt. After detaining Gu Yongfeng for less than two hours, the sheriff personally sent him away.
"Captain He, your police officers are very motivated." Gu Yongfeng looked meaningfully at Liang Zhengxuan at the door of the police station, got into a luxurious Lamborghini and left.
Gu Yongfeng always has two plans in mind. The worst case scenario now is that Liu Chengchuan is arrested and he has to hand over a scapegoat. However, Hongsheng has been seriously damaged, and he has also acquired 8% of Hongsheng's shares, which is expected to continue to expand.
The development of the situation did not have much impact on me, and I still won.
Gu Yongfeng took a deep puff of his cigar, still feeling proud: "Hongsheng thought it was useless to arrest Liu Chengchuan? They don't understand what it means to be defeated."
But when I got back to the company, I heard the secretary suddenly report anxiously: "Boss Gu, Hongsheng has held a press conference! It's being broadcast live on the three-color channel!"
Gu Yongfeng was beaten and scolded for three consecutive days when he saw Hongsheng. He only issued a statement in the name of the company, claiming that there were no safety hazards in the crew and no one was injured.
But amid the upheaval of public opinion, no one cared.
I originally thought Hongsheng had given up struggling and was letting others bully him, but now it’s being broadcast live on TV?
After ordering his secretary to turn on the TV in the office, Gu Yongfeng crossed his legs, held a cigar in his mouth, and stared at the screen with his triangular eyes narrowed: "You are overestimating yourself. I want to see what they are up to."
On the TV screen, the crew that caused a sensation in the city all appeared together.
All crew members of "The Golden Age" were present, including the director, screenwriter and producer, the male and female protagonists, and major supporting actors, all appearing under the flash lights.
The recent rumors were explained in detail, and the rumors were dispelled by the healthy attendance of all members. Finally, it was pointed out that it was the competitor Crown Entertainment that bribed the stage manager with the intention of murdering him, and even used public opinion to manipulate the stock market.
Gu Yongfeng never expected that Hongsheng would clarify in this way.
He has already taken care of all the media in Hong Kong, and the endless stream of news reports are aimed at defeating Hong Sheng, leaving him unable to explain himself.
Who would have thought that they would use the most direct way, holding a live press conference by all staff, to clarify the matter so quickly and decisively.
At the press conference, many media reporters asked questions continuously. The more information they dug up, the more they realized that this was actually a game between two established entertainment companies.
No clarification statement is more convincing than the presence of all employees in good health and safety.
However, reporter Li from the Hong Kong Morning Post, who is heavily bribed by Crown Entertainment, was unwilling to give up and asked loudly, "Just because the cast and crew of The Golden Age were not injured doesn't mean no one else was injured. I heard that the boss of Hongsheng Entertainment was there on the day of the accident. Didn't anyone say that it was the boss of Hongsheng who fell down? Hongsheng wouldn't be trying to fool people and push all the problems onto other entertainment companies, right? Who knows whether Liu Chengchuan was bribed by other entertainment companies or whether this was a sowing of dissent?"
Gossip reporters are good at setting the tone, and this question from reporter Li from the Hong Kong Morning Post triggered another round of whispers.
Especially when he saw the entire crew fall silent, reporter Li was secretly pleased with himself and continued to raise his voice to divert public opinion: "Is your silence now irrefutable?"
Reporter Li firmly believed the information he received from Crown Entertainment that an accident really happened on the set of Hongsheng’s crew!
As long as one clarification is false, the other clarifications will not be credible and can be made into a big deal.
Faced with the crew's silence, reporter Li triumphantly continued: "I think Hong Sheng is..."
——"What do you think of Hongsheng?"
A clear and sonorous female voice interrupted reporter Li's question, instantly attracting the attention of everyone in the audience.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a beautiful figure appear at the entrance of the press conference.
The woman was tall and bright, wearing a straight white satin shirt that reached her calves and a striped ribbon wrapped tightly around her waist, outlining her slender waist.
The high heels stepped lightly on the ground, and the crisp sound was accompanied by the woman's steady and powerful steps. With a momentum that silenced the whole audience, she walked step by step from the door to the front desk.
The fluffy curly hair like seaweed was casually scattered, making the woman's oval face more delicate. A smile spread from her plump and slightly raised red lips, climbing up to the corners of her eyes and eyebrows. In the flowing smoke, the woman looked at the reporter who had just led the trouble, with a sonorous and powerful voice.
"Reporter Li from the Hong Kong Morning Post, why did you curse me? Be careful and sue you for libel."
The young and beautiful woman had smiling eyes, and her threatening words seemed to be wrapped in a smile, but the heavy aura in her eyes, with a casual intimidation without anger, actually frightened the experienced entertainment reporter to the point of being stunned, with his lips moving, unable to make a sound.
All the reporters in the audience were puzzled and whispered to each other, is this the mysterious new boss of Hongsheng Entertainment?
The tens of thousands of viewers who were watching the live broadcast in front of the TV were even more stunned. They were shocked by the sudden appearance of the stunningly beautiful woman and thought she was a newly signed artist. Who would have thought that this person was actually the boss of Hongsheng!
