The comment section was a mess.
But most were begging Li Jinyuan to stay.
Meanwhile, assistant Dong showed the hot search and comments to Li Yong.
Li Yong held the tablet with one hand. Behind his glasses, he slightly squinted and slowly pored over the screen. As he read, his smile intensified.
“Jinyuan, this kid, is already a man of discretion. He understands how to bear others’ plots and accumulate power. However, passively facing schemes isn’t a good thing… Well, he already knows how to pick the best time to show his hand. This is what my son should be like.”
Assistant Dong murmured his agreement, “You are correct.”
Li Yong sighed. “It’s a pity that his older brother wasn’t able to wait for this younger brother to come back and assist him.”
Assistant Dong lowered his head, not saying anything.
Li Yong didn’t seem to be too sad about his eldest son being brain dead. He paused, then asked, “I remember that Jinghua Group has an official Weibo account, right?”
Assistant Dong nodded. “Yes.”
“Then send a post.”
Assistant Dong looked at Li Yong with shock but quickly controlled his expression, saying, “Yes, I’ll do it now.”
Netizens found that today, there was so much news and gossip that they seemed to be buried in it. Standing in its midst, it was the first time they felt so small and helpless.
The media weren’t doing well either. They had to work overtime and buy more servers to avoid their websites crashing from too much traffic.
This was all because the Jinghua Group sent out a post.
With the verified check next to their name, the official Weibo account for Jinghua group posted:
@Li Jinyuan, welcome back.
This post drew the attention of many people.
“Seems like he’s really going back to inherit the business. Sigh, I’d better pay attention the next time I chase after an idol. Better avoid the stupidly rich ones. They could suddenly decide to leave the circle!”
“Upstairs, you’re wrong. You can’t chase those pitiful ones who don’t have the support of their company or agent. Those types of stars don’t even try to improve. The more invested fans would die of anger.”
“Does anyone want to hear about Li Yong’s love life back then? He actually married several concubines. The wife died of sickness. The first and second concubines also died. There’s just the third concubine left. Other than the eldest son who was just declared brain dead, Li Yong still has two sons and three daughters… I feel like it’s not a good thing that Li Jinyuan has been publicly reincluded into the family. Maybe as soon as he goes back, he’d be greeted by an ensuing power struggle ¯(ツ)/¯”
“Some gossip: Women who had relations with Li Yong back then… [link]”
After Li Jinyuan got on the hot search, Li Yong’s love life soon followed.
When assistant Dong saw this, he felt cold sweat run down his back. He hurriedly turned to ask Li Yong. “President Li, how should this be dealt with…”
Li Yong was unexpectedly calm. He waved his hand. “Ignore them.”
Then, Li Yong frowned. “It doesn’t matter how many times I’ve married, but if Jinyuan doesn’t handle this well, he might have to marry the same woman as someone else.”
Assistant Dong showed a surprised expression. “You mean…”
Li Yong knocked on the armrest of the wheelchair. “The young president of the Huos is clearly interested in Miss Zhong and won’t give up easily. The entire world is paying attention to the projects in his hands, so he cannot be easily touched.”
Assistant Dong could only continue asking, “Then what should he do?”
Li Yong shook his head. “I can only advise him, not actually help him to chase her. If he really is useless, then there’s nothing I can do.” Li Yong sighed heavily. “It can only be regarded as the karma from me marrying so many wives before being carried onto my son.”
Li Jinyuan didn’t know that his cheap dad was worrying about his love life.
Li Jinyuan was staring at his phone.
Wei Jie urged him. “Aren’t you going to chase after Miss Zhong?”
Li Jinyuan smiled. “I have to give her some time to think it over. She’s not an impulsive person, so I can’t expect an answer from her when she’s apparently still in shock. The only time she could be like that would be if I was almost dying, but I can’t lie to her like that. If she came to my bedside with the slightest hint of sadness, I’d feel terrible.”
Wei Jie opened his mouth but didn’t say anything in the end.
Damn, ever since he exposed himself during the concert, he has started saying so many sweet things. It’s just like an old sow wearing bras, one after another!* he angrily thought.
*Is Chinese slang expressing (in a disrespectful way) that LJY is saying more sweet words than most people
Li Jinyuan continued to look through his phone after saying that.
He had finally freed himself and dared to look through his and Zhong Yuhuan’s CP supertopic, scrolling through the numerous posts praising Zhong Yuhuan, and looking at video compilations of him and Zhong Yuhuan.
He didn’t look at this before because he was afraid he wouldn’t be able to suppress himself from letting everyone in the world know his feelings, but it was different now…
Li Jinyuan happily watched the videos and even asked Wei Jie to go buy some wine.
What else could Wei Jie do? He could only go out to buy it.
