Chapter 104: Ryan, Officially Announced!

~7 min read 1,376 words

"Impossible, this is impossible..."

The color drained completely from Li Xinran's face, her lips trembling, and it took a long while for her to find her voice: "Team Leader Lin clearly knows about my situation, so why did she still let him come?"

"That's a biased way of putting it; why shouldn't he come?"

"You have to realize, he has never appeared in any public setting before; strictly speaking, this is his first appearance in China."

"With such monstrous traffic, do you think Team Leader Lin has any reason not to nod in agreement?"

Shen Huai deliberately drew out his tone, observing Li Xinran's expression.

Sure enough, her complexion was even worse than before.

"But, but I..."

Li Xinran was at a loss for words, her expression extremely flustered.

The problem was, those photos of her and Young Master Shen being so affectionate online were all fake!

Young Master Shen didn't know her at all, and she didn't even know what Young Master Shen looked like.

Once they met at the press conference, everything would be over!

"Big Star Li, are you nervous?" Shen Huai raised an eyebrow, his tone carrying a hint of playfulness, "You don't actually think these fabricated stories can be hidden forever, do you?"

Upon hearing this, Li Xinran felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.

She widened her eyes in terror, her lips trembling, her hands and feet ice-cold, unable to utter a single word.

"I came here just to bring you this message on behalf of Team Leader Lin."

"You must cooperate well with the promotion during this time, otherwise..." Shen Huai paused deliberately, not continuing.

Li Xinran was completely panicked.

She grabbed Shen Huai's arm, her tone urgent: "Shen Huai, I beg you, help me talk to Team Leader Lin, can we change to someone else?"

"Young Master Shen really can't come; if he comes, won't I be finished?"

"Team Leader Lin has spent so much effort on me, she wouldn't want all her hard work to go to waste, would she?"

Shen Huai watched Li Xinran's flustered appearance.

A great sense of vengeful pleasure rose within him.

He gently brushed off Li Xinran's hand, his tone indifferent: "Big Star Li, I am merely a Public Relations Specialist; it's useless to beg me."

Shen Huai looked at Li Xinran's desperate expression, a curve forming at the corner of his mouth.

"Enjoy the life of being bathed in the spotlight, Big Star Li."

Having said that, Shen Huai turned and left the dressing room.

"Bang!"

The door was slammed shut.

Li Xinran collapsed powerlessly onto the sofa, her face as pale as paper.

At this moment, her mind was filled with fear.

"What do I do? What do I do? What should I do?" She muttered to herself, flusteredly taking out her phone to call Lin Yeman.

"I'm sorry, the number you have dialed is currently busy..."

"I'm sorry, the number you have dialed is currently busy..."

"I'm sorry, the number you have dialed is currently busy..."

"Damn it!"

Li Xinran was so angry she threw her phone directly onto the floor!

No!

She absolutely could not just sit and wait for death.

A flash of determination crossed Li Xinran's eyes.

She stood up, walked to the vanity mirror, tremblingly picked up her cosmetics, and began to touch up her makeup bit by bit.

She smoothed out the hair that had become messy from her frenzy.

Facing the mirror, she forced a smile.

"It's just Young Master Shen, right? It's fine, it's fine, calm down."

Li Xinran stared obsessively at the mirror, her eyes dark and deep: "As long as the raw rice is cooked into porridge, the fake can become real."

As if she had made a major decision.

Li Xinran took a deep breath, opened the door, and walked toward Lin Yeman's office.

Two hours later.

Ryan officially announced its first-ever spokesperson in history. When Li Xinran's name was revealed along with the official promotional video, everyone was stunned.

"Holy crap? Did I see that right? It's Li Xinran? That newcomer who was involved in a scandal a while ago?"

"Ryan really knows how to pick people; passing over so many A-list stars to choose a newcomer who just debuted?"

"Li Xinran comes from a humble background; she's so much better than those second-generation or third-generation stars in the entertainment industry! Support!"

"To the person above, what do you know? Do you really think Li Xinran is some small fry? She's the golden canary kept by the Shen Family!"

"I heard some rumors earlier, but I didn't expect it to actually be officially announced! Ryan is awesome!"

"When is the press conference? I want to book a spot to see the beauty!"

Less than half an hour after the official announcement.

The discussion volume broke one hundred million! Almost everyone's gaze was focused on this upcoming press conference.

The reservation channel on Ryan's official website also opened along with the announcement.

In an instant.

It was swamped by the swarm of netizens! The number of pre-registrations shot straight up, and in less than 4 hours, the number of pre-registrations broke ten million, setting a new historical record for Ryan!

Eight of the top ten trending searches were dominated by Ryan!

The monstrous traffic even crashed Weibo and the official Ryan website several times.

The Business Department of Ryan was grinning from ear to ear.

Tong Yue looked at the data soaring red, and her mood was equally excellent.

Three days later at 8 PM, it would be Ryan's official launch event.

As long as the heat was maintained for three more days, her promotion in the second half of the year would be secure! Tong Yue breathed a rare sigh of relief.

Looking back, her gaze involuntarily fell on Shen Huai in the corner, and she was suddenly stunned.

She saw Shen Huai sitting silently in the corner alone, holding his phone and not knowing what he was looking at.

Ever since he came back from Director Lu, Shen Huai had been acting very strange.

Although on the surface, Shen Huai had said nothing.

But Tong Yue always felt that he was hiding quite a few things in his heart.

"What's wrong with you, looking so preoccupied?"

Tong Yue walked over, her tone softening for once, "What did Director Lu say to you?"

While tapping on his phone, Shen Huai absentmindedly spouted nonsense: "Oh, nothing, just urged me to take this Ryan project seriously."

The Galgame project was currently still in the confidential stage.

Naturally, it was impossible to tell others.

Hearing this, Tong Yue frowned, half-believing and half-doubting: "She called you over alone just to say these trivial things?"

"Also, you've been playing on your phone in front of me since you walked in; aren't you being too arrogant?"

After speaking, Tong Yue made a move to grab Shen Huai's phone.

As a result, Shen Huai reacted immediately, shifting his body to the side and saying: "Team Leader Tong, why are you doing this again? Have you forgotten the apology from before?"

After speaking, Shen Huai pointedly glanced toward Fu Hai.

Tong Yue was stunned, her expression suddenly becoming somewhat awkward.

The hand she had reached out halfway was abruptly pulled back.

"Don't pin labels on me; I think you're mostly just flirting." Tong Yue was emboldened despite being in the wrong.

Hearing this.

Shen Huai suddenly smiled: "I didn't expect Team Leader Tong to look so serious, yet have a head full of things that wouldn't pass censorship."

As he spoke, he turned his phone screen directly to face Tong Yue: "See? I'm replying to my mom's message; what, do you want to join in too?"

Tong Yue looked at the screen, her expression changing slightly.

She saw that the nickname clearly read "Mom".

It actually really was Mom.

Tong Yue took a hurried look and quickly withdrew her gaze in embarrassment.

After glaring fiercely at Shen Huai, she slipped away to Jiang Xinxin's side, pretending to direct work.

Watching Tong Yue's fleeing figure, the corners of Shen Huai's mouth curled into a secret smile.

His fingers flew rapidly.

He quickly changed the nickname "Mom" back to "Lin Yeman".
