Transmigrated as the Ex-Wife of a Heroic Man

Chapter 1204: Chapter 1204: How Dare She

Zhou Yan was slowly wiping her fingers, the pale pads stained pink from the strawberries she had been eating. Her expression hardened with detest as she spoke, “I really can’t understand how the Song family could produce someone like Song Zishan, a disgrace. No, not just Song Zishan, her father isn’t any better. Only now that he’s disabled and can’t stir up trouble, he’s turned into a coward.”

Upon hearing this, Su Wen’s heart skipped a beat, and she held her tongue.

“Boss Su, I came to you today and I’ll be honest; at this point, I have to set aside all my pride,” Chief Editor Xia had prepared her speech well in advance and had briefed Zhou Yan before coming. Otherwise, Zhou Yan wouldn’t have brought her to see Su Wen.

“Firstly, I want to tell you that Fashion Passion has already withdrawn all promotions of the Su family from our magazine. The Spring Special issue is finalized, and not only does it lack any promotion for the Su family, but it also contains many instances of malicious slander. Given Fashion Passion’s current circulation, once these magazines hit the market, it will not only affect your original advertising plans but will also completely tarnish the Su family’s brand image.”

The Su family’s position was too fragile; although sales were climbing, everything was still in the air, the foundation not yet solid. If Fashion Passion went ahead with the malicious slander, then all of Su Wen’s previous efforts would turn to dust.

The Su family would be ruined, not only facing closure but possibly even legal battles and accusations of overpricing and profiteering. But Su Wen knew well that the Su family’s prices were indeed high, but rightfully so, given their value.

Be it the materials, service, quality, or design elements, all justified the Su family’s pricing as worthwhile.

Even though the daily turnover was astonishing, the Su family wasn’t truly making money yet! The costs had been recouped, but she needed to invest even more money in marketing and advertising.

The landmark location’s advertisement, a grand opening gift from Hengyang, was a huge expense. Although she didn’t have to pay for it herself, wasn’t it still a cost?

Song Zishan was utterly malicious.

How dare she?

Taking money from the Su family, not only failing to fulfill the contract but also blatantly slandering.

It was utterly shameless.

“When is the Spring Special hitting the market?”

“I originally set it for February 1, but Song Zishan probably can’t wait until then. A close aide I left at Fashion Passion told me she’s been frenzied lately, constantly pushing the printing factory to work overtime. It should be very soon.”

That urgent?

At this point, who could stop it?

Su Wen suddenly looked up, her gaze piercing as she fixed it on Chief Editor Xia, “Did you deliberately delay until now?”

Chief Editor Xia’s face turned awkward; she hadn’t expected Su Wen, so young, to be so perceptive.

Zhou Yan watching Chief Editor Xia struggle to find words, and completely dominated by Su Wen’s assertiveness, felt secretly pleased. Finally speaking up, “Forget it Wenwen, you’ve been upset enough, and at least she came to inform you. Otherwise, Song Zishan would have completely trapped you. Moreover, after being deceived by Song Zishan, if she sought out another partner, she would need someone capable, with a strong backing. How else could she have tested your mettle?”

“That’s true,” Su Wen’s eyes shifted, her fierce demeanor from before seemingly vanished as she gave Chief Editor Xia a slight smile, “You’re my senior, don’t mind me. After all, you were also affected by my troubles, otherwise Fashion Passion wouldn’t have been forcibly bought out.”

Chief Editor Xia vaguely realized something, but before she could fully understand, it felt like a veil had fallen over her thoughts, leaving them cloudy.

But Zhou Yan swiftly cleared up her confusion.
