Chapter 122: Love Variety Show Strategy System (40)

~8 min read 1,501 words

But there is no end to the scolding from netizens, so the wealthy illegitimate child group collectively aimed their fire at the troublemaking marketing account—

【Is this shitty marketing account a moron? So what if Xie Junyi has an illegitimate daughter? Did she eat your family's Rice or waste your family's Fabric? No? Then why are you flapping your gums? Do you live by the sea? You're really overstepping!】

【You poor loser! Go home and ask your parents if they would give birth to a half-sibling for you if they had more money than they could ever spend!】

【What's this nonsense about coming back to fight for the family fortune? Damn it, if you swapped places with her, would you not fight for it?】

【Trash marketing account! You don't deserve to exist!】

Then, this marketing account was banned.

All topics related to the illegitimate children were deleted completely.

At two in the morning, the trending search list finally quieted down, and even the air on the internet felt a bit clearer.

But offline, there were still houses with lights blazing.

The Haicheng Xie Family.

"Bang!"

After hearing the secretary's report and learning that all of this was caused by Xie Danni—the fine daughter born to him and his wife—Xie Junyi was so furious he smashed the ashtray on the coffee table.

"Look at the fine daughter you've raised!"

Madam Xie was scared now too: "Husband, the company's stock price..."

Xie Junyi sneered in anger: "Worried about the company's stock price now? I emphasized to you repeatedly before to prioritize the big picture, prioritize the big picture, where were your ears? No! I should ask: where were your brains? Is your vision so shallow that you can only see immediate interests? You've been my wife for over twenty years, the daughter doesn't understand, but you don't either?"

"Husband, I just..." Madam Xie was truly panicked now, "Then what should we do? Is it too late to suppress it? Tomorrow's stock market..."

"Leave it to fate!"

Xie Junyi closed his eyes powerlessly, too lazy to say more to her, shook her off, and went straight upstairs to the study.

Tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.

Madam Xie dialed her daughter's phone with trembling hands: "Nini, you've caused a huge mess! Your father was just furious, what will happen to the stock market tomorrow! Your father has gone to the study now, I don't know if he's thought of a countermeasure... It's all that little bitch's fault, if she hadn't come to our house, none of this would have happened... Nini, why aren't you speaking? What's wrong with you?"

Xie Danni was still thinking about the Love Variety Show Strategy System.

How could it just disappear like that?

Where would it go after unbinding from her?

Did it return to where it came from? Or did it bind to a new Host?

Who would the new Host be?

At nine the next morning, the guests gathered in the living room.

The director looked around the circle and exclaimed to himself, "Good heavens!"

The person involved, who had hung on the trending searches all night, was full of energy and had a rosy complexion; one couldn't tell at all that she had experienced a night of bloody, storm-like slaughter.

The other guests, however, didn't seem to have slept well; some looked listless, some had poor complexions, some were yawning repeatedly, and some had bloodshot eyes...

In short, not one of them was normal.

Not only that, they were all sharp as tacks.

Even though they had spent half the night lurking on the trending searches and witnessed the secret that Xie Yang was an illegitimate daughter born to the Xie Group president's former secretary, and that she was actually Xie Danni's half-sister, they were shocked to their cores.

Some had spent the whole night on the phone with their agents, and some had used burner accounts to inquire everywhere about the truth of the incident, yet after Xie Yang came downstairs, no one took the initiative to ask about it to her face.

Everyone knew it clearly, but on the surface, they pretended to know nothing at all.

This was the psychological quality of people in the industry.

Director Cen couldn't stop clicking his tongue in wonder.

But regardless, the eye of the hurricane that had caused the storm had suddenly disappeared, and for workers like them, it was enough that the program could be recorded normally.

Thinking of this, Director Cen held the microphone and spoke with a smile: "Good morning, everyone! Yesterday we spent a pleasant day on Shazhou Island..."

While the director was speaking, Xie Danni's cold, piercing gaze kept scanning back and forth among the female guests in the room.

She was guessing which of them might have become the new Host of the Love Variety Show Strategy System.

She wasn't listening to what the director was saying at all.

It wasn't until everyone started getting up and walking outside that she realized what was happening.

"Why is everyone going outside? Isn't it raining today? Why run outside? I don't want to record the show in the rain," she said unhappily.

"It's not that, Sister Danni." Luo Qianyun walked beside her and explained in a low voice, "The director asked us to move to the flower hall, saying we aren't filming on location today, and will record some extra footage by playing a few small games in the flower hall."

"..."

"Sister Danni, why are you so distracted? Is something on your mind?"

Luo Qianyun wanted to curry favor with her; between the legitimate daughter of the Xie Family and an illegitimate daughter, was there any need to choose who to support?

"I..."

Xie Danni was just about to probe her to see if she was the new Host of the Strategy System when she suddenly heard two staff members whispering behind her, mentioning "Xie Group," "stocks," and "limit down at the opening."

Her face turned pale, and she instantly thought of her mother's crying on the phone last night, and she snatched the staff member's phone away.

The phone screen was still on the stock market page, and the Xie Group's eye-catching stock price was a shocking green; it had hit the limit down at the opening!

It's over!

Her heart sank to the bottom of the ocean in an instant.

She had been so busy teaching Xie Yang a lesson and focusing on the Strategy System that she had forgotten about this!

Her father had warned her repeatedly not to reveal Xie Yang's identity to the outside world to avoid affecting the company's stock price, but not only did she reveal it, she made such a huge scene.

Now it's over!

Xie Group President's Office.

"Lao Xie, no matter what, you must give us old shareholders an explanation for this!"

"President Xie, logically speaking, it's not our place as outsiders to say anything about your family affairs, but it has affected the company's stock price and fallen so miserably, it's really inexcusable not to give us an explanation."

Xie Junyi had just arrived at the company when he was surrounded by these major shareholders, leaving no room to move.

The people who came were all old shareholders of Xie, holding original shares of the Xie Group in their hands.

Back then, seeing the entire Xie market thriving and at its peak after Xie Junyi took over, they had wanted to keep these shares for their retirement.

Who would have thought the situation would change in an instant, catching them off guard—the stocks in their hands hit the limit down before they could sell them off.

At this rate, there is no telling how many more days they will be trapped.

If it keeps falling, they really might spit out a mouthful of old blood.

One must know that just a single day of hitting the limit down wiped out tens of millions in funds from their personal accounts.

If it were for any other reason, they wouldn't be so aggressive, but once they thought about how the turmoil in Xie's stock price was caused by Xie Junyi's romantic debts, who could still be in a good mood?

"Lao Xie, say something!"

"Chairman Xie!"

Xie Junyi pinched the bridge of his nose; he hadn't slept all night, and after coming to the company in the morning to take charge, he was surrounded by these people chattering away, his head aching as if it were about to explode.

"Chairman Xie!"

The secretary rushed in, pleasantly surprised:

"There's hope! There's hope for the stock price to recover! Xie... the Second Young Miss has been specially recruited as an official member of the National Beach Volleyball Team, and the General Administration of Sport of China has personally issued the announcement; it's already trending explosively!"

"???"

Who did you say?

Xie Yang?

His illegitimate daughter?

Specially recruited as an official member of the beach volleyball team?

You've got to be kidding me!
