It Started With a Kiss: Leng Shao's Beloved Wife

Chapter 113: Flying against the odds: Breaking the impasse and starting a new journey

"Mr. Wu, I'm sorry, I... I can't..." Agent Zhang's face was pale as he handed the thin resignation letter to Wu Xinyan. His voice trembled and his eyes were full of reluctance and guilt.

Wu Xinyan took the resignation letter and applied a little force with her fingers, causing the paper to groan under the weight.

She glanced at it, and the simple few lines of words on it seemed so heavy that they almost made her breathless.

This is not the first, nor will it be the last.

The office door was pushed open again and again, and familiar faces, with the same uneasiness and guilt, handed in resignation letters.

The company was filled with panic and anxiety, as if it was a sinking ship. Everyone was desperately looking for a lifeboat, but no one cared about their final fate.

Wu Xinyan bit her lower lip tightly, letting the bitterness spread in her mouth.

She knew very well that all this was aimed at her. Those dark forces hiding in the shadows were using every possible means to completely defeat her.

The phone vibrated and the name "Luo Yichen" popped up on the screen. She took a deep breath and answered the call.

"Yan Yan, don't worry, I'll take care of everything." Luo Yichen's voice was low and firm, but it couldn't hide his fatigue.

"Yi Chen, I'm sorry..." Wu Xinyan's voice was choked with sobs. The Luo Group's stock price fell, and the shareholders accused her of all this because of her.

"Silly boy, what nonsense are you talking about? We are one." Luo Yichen comforted her gently, his tone full of pampering and firmness.

However, the faint sound of quarreling coming from the other end of the phone made Wu Xinyan's heart tighten again.

She knew that Luo Yichen was also under tremendous pressure, but he silently took on everything just to provide her with a clear sky.

"Yi Chen, I won't give up, never!" Wu Xinyan clenched her fists, her eyes flashing with determination.

She wants to fight back, for herself and for him!

At dusk, a black car slowly stopped downstairs of Wu Xinyan's company. The window slowly lowered, revealing a young and handsome face, but his deep eyes were filled with cold anger at this moment.

"Mr. Luo..." Public Relations Officer Liu walked forward quickly, his tone anxious, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Luo Yichen glanced coldly at the increasing number of reporters and...

Some people holding signs and shouting slogans had a cold smile on their faces.

"Let them make a fuss." He spoke coldly, with a chill in his voice, "I want to see who dares to touch her!" Downstairs of the company, protests, shouting, and the click of flash lights mixed together, like a boiling oil pan, noisy and harsh.

Zhao's haters stood proudly in the middle of the crowd, holding high a sign that read "Boycott bad artists and restore a pure land to the entertainment industry," spitting and inciting the emotions of those around them.

"Wu Xinyan, get out of the entertainment industry!"

"Scheming girl, shameless!"

The vicious curse was like a sharp blade, stabbing Wu Xinyan fiercely. She stood in front of the French window, looking at the group of hideous-looking people downstairs, and felt her heart tighten.

"Mr. Wu, don't take it to heart. These people have been blinded by that villain Zhao Heifen..." Manager Zhang looked at Wu Xinyan with heartache, but he also knew that anything he said now would only be pale comfort.

Wu Xinyan took a deep breath, suppressed her surging emotions, and a gleam of determination flashed in her eyes.

"I'm fine. Please make some arrangements. I have a speech at the industry summit today."

"But..." Agent Zhang hesitated to speak. In this situation, attending the industry summit would undoubtedly put herself in the spotlight. However, looking at Wu Xinyan's determined eyes, she swallowed her words of dissuasion.

At the summit, the atmosphere was solemn and depressing, and everyone's eyes were focused on Wu Xinyan, with suspicion, contempt, and sympathy.

Wu Xinyan took a deep breath and opened the file bag in her hand.

"My dear seniors, I'm here today to show you something." She placed documents and photos on the table. Each photo clearly recorded the entire process of how her competitor bribed internet trolls, spread rumors, and maliciously defamed her.

"I, Wu Xinyan, act openly and honestly, with a clear conscience!" She spoke in a resounding voice, "I won't let those villains hiding in the dark corners succeed, and I won't let down those who truly support me!"

The venue was silent as everyone looked at the irrefutable evidence in shock. Their gazes towards Wu Xinyan also gradually changed, from suspicion at the beginning to admiration.

"Pa, pa, pa..." The crisp applause broke the silence. A respected director stood up and led the applause, and others responded.

Wu Xinyan won the respect of most people present, but she didn't know that a bigger storm was brewing.

Public Relations Officer Liu looked at the news and public opinion trends updated in real time on his mobile phone, and a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"The good show has just begun..." She murmured softly and made a phone call, "According to the plan, start the action!"

The successful counterattack at the summit was like a thunderclap out of the blue, exploding over the entertainment and business circles.

Public Relations Officer Liu is not a good person. Taking advantage of this favorable situation, she quickly packaged all the remarks and evidence that defamed Wu Xinyan and put them on the hot search list.

The speed of the reversal of public opinion is faster than a tornado. Zhao's black fans who were clamoring to "boycott bad artists" in the last second were drowned in the saliva of netizens in the next second and disappeared in disgrace.

"I told you, Mr. Wu is not that kind of person. Those rumors are obviously false!"

"Support Mr. Wu! Looking forward to your new work!"

On the Internet, voices of solidarity and support for Wu Xinyan surged like a tide, and the company's stock price also soared. Those shareholders who had been worried before were all grinning from ear to ear.

PR Liu watched all this, his lips curled up in satisfaction, and reported to Luo Yichen on the other end of the phone: "Boss Luo, don't worry, everything is under control."

Luo Yichen just said "hmm" lightly, hung up the phone, and looked out the window with deep eyes.

He knew that this was just the beginning and the real battle was still to come.

At the same time, Wu Xinyan's company is also full of hope and fighting spirit.

Wu Xinyan personally took charge and re-drafted the bidding plan. She abandoned her previous orthodox ideas, boldly innovated, incorporated the latest technology and concepts into it, and created a dazzling plan.

"Mr. Wu, your plan is amazing! We are sure to win!" The young employees cheered excitedly, with hope glittering in their eyes.

Wu Xinyan looked at them and a relieved smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

She knew that they had already won half the battle.

However, just when Wu Xinyan thought everything was moving in the right direction, an anonymous email broke the brief peace.

The email contained only a photo. In the photo, a man sneaked into a hotel, and beside him was Wu Xinyan's competitor...

Wu Xinyan's pupils suddenly contracted, and a chill ran from the soles of her feet straight to her heart.

"It seems that the best is yet to come..." She murmured softly, with a sharp light flashing in her eyes.
