Chapter 18 - Huo Ru's Scheme

"Mr. Yun has already gone to work. He's busy with work."

What kind of miserable worker was this? Huo Ru nodded in understanding. Although her husband was indeed a little richer than she imagined, this kind of money needed to be earned on a year-round basis. It was really too tragic, anyone who heard about it would be sad to see it. The boss of their company was really inhumane.

The other protagonist of last night's blunder was not around, and Huo Ru was obviously in a much better mood. She hummed an unknown tune and slowly finished the breakfast that Li Ma had meticulously made.

She was just about to read a book in the guest room when her phone rang.

Seeing the number on it, Huo Ru immediately returned to her room and closed the door.

"Ru Ru, happy engagement! How are you and Mr. Zhou?" A clear voice sounded. The person on the phone with her was her best friend, Bai Duo.

"We didn't do anything," Huo Ru said angrily. She had been too busy the past two days and had not had the time to talk to her best friend about the scumbag and bitch she had met.

Hearing her angry tone, Bai Duo thought that she had quarreled with Zhou Dong. She asked, "What did he do to make you so angry again?"

"Don't mention him anymore. I'm disgusted. He and Huo Yun are together!"

"Ah?!" Bai Duo suddenly received such shocking news and did not react for a long time. "Then what are you going to do?"

"We broke up and they got engaged."

"Damn, this is too disgusting! Just wait, I'll buy a plane ticket back immediately. Don't be too sad and shed a tear for the scumbag."

"Don't! It's not worth ruining your future for him! It wasn't easy for you to seize this opportunity. I'm counting on you to soar in the future to protect me!"

Bai Duo was a small entertainment gossip reporter. She was the kind of person who had the worst reputation and was hated by fans and celebrities so it had not been easy for her to be chosen to leave the country. This was a good opportunity for advancement. If she really returned to China on impulse, it would all be for nothing.

"But don't be anxious, I have a lot of use for you. You won't be able to run away."

"Just tell me what you need. I, Bai Duo, will do anything."

"My card has been stopped and my role has been snatched, but I already have an idea…"

On the other side, in the CEO's office of the Yun Corporation, Yun Feng looked down at the high-rise buildings in the capital through the tall windows. He had arranged for Hao Ming to investigate last night, Hao Ming's heart was pounding as he told him all the information he had found.

"This time, Madam's third female lead was deliberately arranged for someone else by a small celebrity called Ba Lan."

He looked at his boss's dark face and thought to himself that this was not good. When he saw the results of the investigation last night, he had expected this to happen. This little celebrity named Ba Lan had provoked Madam of all people.

"Ba Lan has no conflict of interest with her. Why would she suddenly target her?"

As the head of the Yun Corporation, he knew all too well about these rights struggles. People who did not have any conflicts of interest rarely showed their aggression so fiercely, especially in the entertainment circle. Although it was a pool of mud beneath their glamorous appearance, very few people would take the initiative to break the peace.

"Yes, President. Ba Lan's good friend is Huo Yun, Miss Huo's half-sister." Hao Ming glanced at the President's expression, deliberated for a moment, and slowly added, "The conflict between them has always been prominent. Ba Lan also can't stand the fact that Miss Huo's conditions are better than hers, so she has been looking for trouble with her both openly and secretly."

In the past two years, Yun Feng's mind had not been in the country at all. This time, it was also the Yun family who had been ordered to stabilize the situation. He was indeed not that familiar with domestic affairs, but he was familiar with the name Huo Yun.

Seeing that the boss didn't say anything for a long time, Hao Ming asked tentatively, "Should we buy Star Picking Entertainment? Or help Madam change companies?"

"No need. She won't be happy. As long as no one takes the initiative to bully her, it's fine. Don't deliberately arrange resources for her." Yun Feng had long figured out Huo Ru's personality. She wasn't a flower in a greenhouse, she had her own sky to fly in and couldn't always hide under his wings.

"Then… What about the third female lead role?"

"The role belongs to whoever it belongs to. If there's a mastermind behind it, cut off that hand." Hao Ming accepted the order and was about to leave when the president stopped him.
