My CEO Husband Has Some Issues

Chapter 1360: Chapter 1361: Forced to Spend Money for Peace

Therefore, she personally has a high opinion of the cooperation proposal put forward by Rong Yan, but due to the company’s recent multitude of troubles, she has no way to convince their boss to cooperate.

Wang Ying brings up these issues, also pressing her forehead with a headache, her complexion ashen as she says, “If it was a woman who approached us it would have been easier to resolve, but it just had to be a man. We all understand it’s a trap, and yet we can’t do anything about the other party. If it was news about a man and a woman, we could have called it an unspoken rule of the entertainment industry, but what about two men? How could we make that clear? Once the news breaks, regardless of whether or not it was a setup that night, whether or not anything actually happened, our boss’s image will be severely damaged. Lemon Entertainment’s stocks, our investments in TV series will all be implicated… Miss Rong, your proposal is very attractive, and our company indeed has a good relationship with AQ. It’s just that the timing you’ve chosen is wrong; at this juncture, no one at Lemon feels like contemplating new investments.”

Rong Yan understood her meaning: Lemon’s boss has been schemed against with a “set up” scam, the other party using vicious tactics, holding Lemon Entertainment’s Achilles heel. They also had leverage with some compromising photos in their possession, proposing very harsh conditions for resolution. Lemon’s boss couldn’t swallow his pride and wasn’t willing to pay for peace! But once the photos were leaked, public opinion would create an impact on Lemon, and then Lemon’s stocks and projects would all be affected!

At this point in time, from Lemon’s boss to its senior executives, no one had the mood to invest in new projects.

She had experienced a similar “set up” herself, with Rong Weiwei and Shi Mufeng playing their too-clever-by-half act in front of the media.

She lifted her head and said to Wang Ying, “Mr. Wang, I appreciate your trust in telling me this. Could you tell me who that young ‘sugar baby’ threatening Mr. Ai Wen is?”

“…” Wang Ying looked at her with surprise.

Rong Yan gave a slight smile and said, “Maybe I really do have a solution.”

She has a solution for this urgent crisis?

Wang Ying sat up straight, her gaze becoming serious as she looked at her, “Miss Rong, I have told you about this matter because I have faith in your project and did not want to refuse you unclearly. Secondly, I indeed harbor the hope that, just maybe, you could be of help. But this matter is very important to the entire Lemon Entertainment—it’s not a child’s play-acting game. Think it over carefully before you speak.”

“I have thought it through very carefully; since I’ve spoken up, I know what I’m talking about. Mr. Wang, please tell me the name.”

Wang Ying looked at her skeptically for a moment, although not believing that a young woman like her would be able to settle the affair, but the company was truly at its wits’ end, and she was willing to try anything as long as there was an opportunity before her. After a brief silence, Wang Ying made up her mind, “That young ‘sugar baby’ who approached us is called Gu Zekai, you probably haven’t heard of him. He is a new artist launched by Purple Star Media, with a handsome appearance, acted in a web series, and has a small but notable reputation among fans, with many female fans fond of his looks. His fame is limited, he hasn’t gone mainstream, but he’s known in the fan circles.”

“Gu Zekai.” Rong Yan silently repeated the name. She didn’t know many people in the circle, and didn’t like to engage in social networking. With many controversies surrounding her and her “sugar daddy” being ambiguous, many people were also reluctant to have too much contact with her, which is why she truly had never heard of a new ‘sugar baby’ named Gu Zekai.
