Yi Tianran asked with some curiosity, "You... gave her a breakup fee?"
"Of course not, wouldn't that be humiliating?" Fu Zhiyan said matter-of-factly, "I only buy small gifts for exes when we break up, like bags, sports cars, or houses. It's nothing to brag about!"
Yi Tianran: "..." Is this some kind of Versailles literature?
She tactfully said, "I think your love life is already so colorful, so you don't need to worry about what's between me and your brother anymore!"
Fu Zhiyan patted his chest and said sincerely, "Sister-in-law, please don't be so polite. It is my duty as your younger brother to protect your relationship."
Yi Tianran stared blankly: "..." Are you really not understanding or are you just pretending not to understand?
Seeing her indifferent expression, Fu Zhiyan felt that she lacked a sense of crisis, which was why her relationship with her brother and sister-in-law had not progressed.
As a good younger brother, it's time to lend a helping hand.
So he deliberately said, "Sister-in-law, let me tell you the truth! In the years you've been gone, my brother's suitors could stretch from China to the United States."
Yi Tianran finally showed some interest: "Oh, really?"
Fu Zhiyan spoke eloquently, “Of course! Leaving aside those from the distant past, there is one close relative, the daughter of a long-standing friend of the Fu family. It is said that her ancestors had royal blood. She is naturally beautiful and intelligent, and received the most professional training from a young age. She is proficient in all the arts, including music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. She is smart and excels in her studies. She is a lady from a prestigious family in everyone’s eyes. Even my aunt liked her very much. Back then, many people thought that she and my brother were a perfect match and that they would definitely get married in the future!”
That sounds absolutely perfect!
With a smile, Yi Tianran asked curiously, "Where is she now?"
Huh?
She seems quite calm; isn't she jealous at all? That's unusual!
Fu Zhiyan decided to add fuel to the fire: "She's there—"
Before he could finish speaking, a cold and menacing voice rang out from behind him: "Fu Zhiyan, you talk too much."
Fu Zhiyan's heart tightened, and he lost his balance, tumbling off the sofa.
Turning around, he saw Fu Yunchen standing tall in front of him, a chilling glint in his dark eyes, his face clouded with gloom, as if a storm was brewing.
"Brother, why didn't you say a word when you came back!"
Yi Tianran clicked her tongue twice, feeling somewhat sorry for Fu Zhiyan, this master of courting death.
Why can't they learn their lesson!
Getting caught again and again, they really don't want to suffer enough!
Fu Yunchen said expressionlessly, "Do I need to report to you when I go home?"
"No, no... of course not." Fu Zhiyan waved his hands repeatedly, looking miserable. "I was wrong. I made up everything just now. I was talking nonsense. I said those things to stir up your relationship with your sister-in-law. I had absolutely no bad intentions."
Fu Yunchen said coldly, "It's too late."
Fu Zhiyan's face turned ashen; he was doomed.
This time, my older brother will definitely exploit me to death in a fit of anger.
Waaaaah...
If I could go back ten minutes, I would definitely repent and start anew.
Unexpectedly, Fu Yunchen did not propose any punishment, but simply said, "You can leave now."
"Big brother, please have mercy, I promise I will..." Fu Zhiyan's words of pleading were stuck in his throat, unable to come out, and he was completely dumbfounded.
Fu Yunchen glanced at him: "Aren't you going to get lost?"
When Fu Zhiyan came to his senses, he felt not relief at all, but rather as if a sword was hanging over his head, making him tremble with fear and flee in trepidation.
Yi Tianran held a sofa cushion in her arms, resting her head on it, her long, slender legs casually draped over the armrest, revealing a glimpse of her fair and delicate instep.
Her expression was languid, and she said with a half-smile, "I thought you were going to punish him and tell me on him again!"
Fu Yunchen's eyes were dark and unfathomable. He casually hung his coat on the sofa and said nonchalantly, "This is no secret."
Yi Tianran understood the implication in his words.
It wasn't a secret, meaning he never intended to hide it from me, indirectly clarifying that there was no affair between him and that lady from a prestigious family.
That scoundrel is quite cunning; even a simple sentence contains a hidden meaning.
Yi Tianran said ambiguously, "But how come I've never heard you mention such an outstanding suitor before?"
You always say I'm hooking up with young, handsome guys, but I think you've been pretty good yourself these past six years!
"You care?" Fu Yunchen's deep gaze fell on her, as if he wanted to see right through her.
Yi Tianran looked away, her fingers unconsciously twirling a strand of long hair in her hand. "I was just asking."
Two seconds later, she casually added, "So, which family's daughter is so outstanding?"
Fu Yunchen slightly curved the corners of his lips, "I don't remember."
"Huh?" Yi Tianran looked up in astonishment, and said incredulously, "Such an outstanding woman, and you actually say you don't remember her? Fu Yunchen, aren't you being a bit too arrogant?"
“Apart from you,” Fu Yunchen leaned down, a smile playing on his lips, “I have no interest in anyone else.”
Yi Tianran: "..."
Depend on!
This is definitely another one of that scumbag's tricks; don't let him easily win you over.
That's what she was thinking, but a smile involuntarily crept onto her lips.
It's just that this handsome face is too deceptive. As someone who's obsessed with good looks, it's normal that I couldn't resist!
...
Having decided to trick Yi Lianxue, Yi Tianran quickly set up a shell company under the name of Elvis.
The company name remains Thyssen Entertainment. As for the staff, a group has already been transferred from the head office, so there will be absolutely no problem with normal operation.
It was done in two or three days.
A week later, Yi Lianxue contacted her by phone and gave her a reply: "Mr. Elvis, I am willing to cooperate with you."
Yi Tianran had already anticipated the answer, and a triumphant smile unconsciously appeared on her lips. "Alright, then please come to our branch office now to sign the contract!"
After the signing was completed, Yi Tianran officially posted a Weibo message on the official website of Thyssen Entertainment's domestic branch.
[A new project is launching soon. Welcome @易怜雪 to join us! Stay tuned.]
The news didn't attract much attention at first.
It wasn't until Yi Lianxue's fans reposted it that it attracted the attention of various fan circles.
"I can't believe my eyes! It's ThyssenKrupp Entertainment, the world's largest entertainment company? When did they open a branch in China?"
"They even signed Yi Lianxue? Isn't she a newcomer to the entertainment industry? She's supposedly a rich and beautiful woman. Turns out her background is so powerful that she can even get in touch with Thiessen. She's really on track to soar to the top!"
"Any project produced by this entertainment company is a ratings champion; I'll keep an eye on it in advance."
Yi Lianxue's fans were even more smug, exclaiming, "Sister is amazing! Is this the legendary debut that's already at its peak?"
"Some people fight over this and that, but our sister only needs to beckon with her finger and good resources will come to her. That's what a queen is!"
