The True Heiress Is The Real Bigshot

Chapter 123: 120 A new day starts with taking off the waistcoat [2 more updates]

This Weibo post caught the attention of many netizens.

The comments section quickly filled up.

“No way, no way, can you even do that?”

“Why, I can’t figure it out, with so many people at Zhong Corporation, do they need someone from outside the family to meddle in major company matters?”

“I said it last time when Zhong Corporation made a statement, there must be some shady deal going on. Tsk tsk, now Zhong Corporation must be blindsided, the Jade Pavilion is gone, hahaha.”

Of course, those who had witnessed that lawsuit live stream didn’t think so.

“The Zhong Corporation itself hasn’t said anything, why are you all so idle, sticking your nose where it doesn’t belong? Live by the sea? Meddling more than anyone else.”

“I’m speechless, they’re low-key enough, and yet they still get called out? They hardly ever post on Weibo anymore, I can’t even see pigs now.”

“So idle, did you have too much salt today?”

But most netizens have a very short memory.

Even though the online mobbing of Ying Zijin by Ying Luwei’s fans was trending, most people didn’t know about it.

After all, not everyone was on Weibo those days.

There are hundreds of millions of netizens in Hua Country, but only a little over a million knew about that incident.

And among those million, not all were on Weibo today.

Moreover, many netizens are flip-floppers.

One second they praise someone, the next they curse them.

“Ah… Wasn’t she the one who signed the bet contract? Why can’t it be mentioned?”

“No way, does she have any special talents? An amateur, and she’s got people licking her boots already?”

“To be fair, she did act without thinking things through with the bet contract. Maybe she’s just young and doesn’t understand, acting impulsively.”

“Being young is no excuse. In elementary school I already knew not to meddle in things I can’t handle, it’s really annoying.”

But netizens have learned their lesson, not daring to use any harsh insulting language.

What if they got sued too?

However, just as netizens were filled with righteous indignation, defending Zhong Corporation and vehemently attacking Ying Zijin, a new Weibo post appeared.

The account that posted it was unexpected by everyone.

“@IBIHuaCountryBranchV: Imperial Capital Time, 3 PM, our team has apprehended an international theft case at a location in O continent. Upon investigation, the stolen item was @ZhongCorporationV’s Treasure of the Emerald Chamber – Ten Directions Realm.

We will dispatch someone immediately to transfer this item to Hua Country’s Shanghai City, and we would like to express our deepest apologies for not cracking the case sooner.

In addition, @DKGroupHuaCountryHeadquartersV that was colluding with this theft is currently under investigation, and we will not tolerate any international illegal activities.]”

Once this Weibo post was released, the internet truly exploded.

“… What the hell? Am I blind, IBI? Is it the IBI I’m thinking of?”

“Initially I didn’t believe it, but after a glance at the verification, I obediently rolled back and knelt on the ground.”

“Damn, I’m shocked, what’s this maneuver? So the Ten Directions Realm was stolen by DK Group? And they even pinned it on Zhong Corporation?”

“Sorry, my focus has been completely diverted to IBI. My child hasn’t been this big yet, it’s the first time seeing a live IBI, always thought this organization was just fictional in books.”

“DK Group’s really done it now, they’ve drawn out IBI, so tragic.”

One didn’t need to guess to know this.

Once on IBI’s priority watch list, it was as if invisible shackles were placed on them.

And removing them was nearly impossible.

After reading IBI’s Weibo post, Fu Yunshen deleted a text message from his phone before looking up.

His peach-blossom eyes were lazy and smiling, irresistibly enchanting.

His slender fingers gently tapped the steering wheel and asked, “Yaoyao, what do you want to eat?”

Ying Zijin leaned against the passenger-side window, and at his question, she lifted her eyes.

Feeling quite sleepy, her usually cool voice was a bit hoarse, “Hmm, let’s go for conveyor belt sushi.”

She also craved eel rice.

“Alright, you get some sleep first.” Fu Yunshen set up his phone on the car’s mount and entered the name of a restaurant.

With navigation started, he began driving.

Freeing one hand, Fu Yunshen reached between the seats to grab a blanket and covered the girl with it.

Fearing that she’d be disturbed by the noise outside, he leaned forward slightly and put ear plugs in for her.

Though Ying Zijin’s health had been gradually recovering, because of the continuous carving, her days and nights were reversed, and she still became exhausted.

Fu Yunshen had offered to complete all the carvings for the Ten Directions Realm himself but was rejected; after all, every person’s carving technique differed, and flaws could easily arise.

Even iron-clad people couldn’t handle such a massive workload, not to mention carving was extremely taxing on the eyes.

Thus, for the last two days, the two took turns carving.

“`

What’s quite marvelous is that although the two carved separately, they managed to fit their work together seamlessly.

The new Ten Directions Realm is thus completed.

Ying Zijin was able to bring the Ten Directions Realm to the conference room before Zhong Corporation could hand over the Jade Pavilion.

Naturally, DK Corporation had no chance of taking the Ten Directions Realm back.

With this bet, not only did Zhong Corporation gain DK Corporation’s two hundred million for nothing, but they also secured a three hundred million dollar deal, causing their stock prices to surge in an instant, even surpassing Fu Corporation’s.

Fu Yunshen’s peach blossom eyes lowered slightly as he smiled, then refocused his attention on the road ahead.

When the journey was a quarter done, his phone rang.

After a glance at the screen, Fu Yunshen answered, suppressing his voice, and said nonchalantly, “Hello?”

“Bro, awesome!” exclaimed a hacker’s voice through the earpiece, “That tweet from IBI was you making them post it, wasn’t it?”

Fu Yunshen appeared nonchalant, “No, it wasn’t.”

“Come on, it definitely was!” the hacker refused to be fooled, overjoyed, “Though I don’t know some of your statuses, I know for sure you’re really badass.”

“If IBI would post a tweet on your say-so, tell me, what can’t you do?”

“Hmm?” Hearing this, Fu Yunshen glanced sideways at the sleeping girl beside him and drawled idly, “Probably still don’t know how to coax kids.”

“…”

There was a moment of silence in the air.

After briefly being dumbfounded, the hacker exploded, “Are you nuts? What kind of issue is that?”

A small laugh escaped Fu Yunshen’s lightly trembling eyelashes, “To me, that’s one of the only two issues right now.”

The other, of course, was to remove the toxins from his grandfather’s body.

It’s true that as people age their health declines, but that’s no reason to let Old Master Fu be defeated by an unknown poison.

“Yeah yeah yeah, I’m just an ordinary person, I can’t understand the actions of someone as badass as you,” the hacker was still excited, “Look, brother, if you can make IBI post a tweet, can you find me a position there?”

“I don’t want anything too high either, just like an executive secretary, so I can see all their scandalous photos whenever I want.”

“Mhm, can’t do that,” said Fu Yunshen, “Gotta hang up, the kid is sleeping.”

The call was mercilessly disconnected.

Staring at the darkened screen, the hacker got so irritated he lost his appetite for instant noodles, “Fair-weather friend!”

He huffed and puffed, turning his attention to his computer to receive a new mission.

After a while, the hacker scratched his head, finally realizing something was amiss.

Hold on.

Didn’t he remember that IBI was also involved in some investigation of a certain man?

What’s that all about?

**

When it comes to Zhong Corporation, even if Zhong Manhua had stayed behind closed doors for the past few days and Ying Luwei tried to prevent her from learning the news, she eventually heard about the incident on Weibo today.

Even IBI made an appearance, reaching the top news in Shanghai City.

After reading about it, Zhong Manhua felt both relieved and angry.

Relieved that the Ten Directions Realm was finally found, saving Zhong Corporation from losing the Jade Pavilion.

Angry that Ying Zijin had signed the bet on behalf of Zhong Corporation, nearly causing the whole corporation to collapse!

“Dad, you are just causing trouble!” Zhong Manhua called Old Master Zhong, her heart aching, “By letting her sign that bet, weren’t you afraid she’d gamble away the entire Zhong Corporation?”

If Ying Zijin had simply been bad at studying, or lacked manners, making her embarrassed, Zhong Manhua could have tolerated it.

What Zhong Manhua couldn’t stand was how the hard work of so many at Zhong Corporation was almost destroyed by Ying Zijin’s hands.

And Old Master Zhong really, just let Ying Zijin mess around as she pleased.

Zhong Manhua was so angry she was livid.

“Zhong Manhua, are you an idiot?” Old Master Zhong, still at Zhong Corporation, had his good mood utterly ruined by this call, “Are you telling me how to handle things?”

“Dad, I didn’t mean that.” Zhong Manhua massaged her temples, trying to calm herself, “Just tell me where she is right now. Have her come home immediately, I must lecture her on this matter.”

For a mother not to know where her daughter is, that in itself was a joke.

“Zhong Manhua, you better shut your mouth,” Elder Zhong was even more irritated as he listened further, “Every time I talk to you, I feel like I’m shortening my lifespan by a year.”

He didn’t wait for Zhong Manhua to say anything else and just hung up the phone.

Then he turned to his side, his face stern as he said, “Have the company post a tweet right now.”

“Ah?” The middle-aged shareholder, still immersed in immense joy, was momentarily puzzled by this sudden order yet nodded, “Okay, okay, okay, Uncle Zhong, I’m on it, don’t you worry.”

A minute later, Zhong Corporation posted a tweet.

[@ZhongCorporationV: Zhong Corporation won this time thanks to Miss Cousin. Oh, what’s that? Miss Cousin didn’t do anything? Sorry, the new Ten Directions Realm was her handiwork [Smile][Smile][Smile]]
