Chapter 466: Do Not Drag Xiang into Our Business (Second Update)


    The press conference was filled with chaos and confusion.


    All the journalists were in a stir due to Yin Qin’s statements.


    The reporters bombarded him with questions, “Mr. Chairman, are you protecting Ji Baixing?”


    “If you don’t like Luo Xiang and yet you’re still with her, don’t you think that’s very unfair?”


    “Don’t you think your actions are a bit excessive, Chairman Yin? You’re involved with Ji Baixing now, so what does that make of Luo Xiang?”


    Themotion remained with people still bemeaning for Luo Xiang.


    Yin Qin did not counter.


    He had no intention of making excuses for himself.


    “It’s my immature behavior that’s hurt Xiang, and brought so much harm to Baixin. I’m very sorry to them. I…” Yin Qin’s voice trailed off.


    His voice choked up like he couldn’t find the words to go on.<div>


    The noisy crowd was all of a sudden quiet.


    It felt like Chairman Yin was about to make a groundbreaking statement, so everyone was all ears.


    Yin Qin began to speak. He spoke clearly into the microphone, “Baixin and I are getting married, on the 27th this month.”


    The room burst into uproar at that statement.


    Everyone thought they may have heard wrong.


    The reporters shouted out, directly addressing him by name, “Yin Qin, don’t you think this is too much? Even if you don’t like Luo Xiang, moving on to another woman so soon after destroying her marriage, don’t you think that’s really spineless?”


    “You may not like Luo Xiang, but after all she gave birth to your child. You’re now tantly disregarding her feelings just because Ji Baixing agreed to be with you. Don’t you think you’re despicable?”


    “Yin Qin, I truly feel it’s a shame for Xiang being involved with you.”


    The press conference was filled with voices questioning and cursing him.


    Yin Qin remained silent.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om


    He stood up, gave the reporters a bow, then turned around and left the room.


    Wu Meili was waiting for him at the door.


    Seeing his appearance, she swallows down the words “scum” that were on the tip of her tongue. The chairman didn’t seem happy at all. She even felt that, in that moment, he was just a lost boy, unsure of what to do and simply letting the situation deteriorate.


    She suddenly realized that Yin Qin was notpletely indifferent to Xiang’s pain; on the contrary, he felt guilty and upset.


    In the end,


    Could everything really be just as it appears on the surface?


    The truth is,


    The media only sees the surface.


    The news of Yin Qin and Ji Baixing’s uing marriage solidified Yin Qin’s reputation as a “jerk”.<div>


    There were many people online condemning Yin Qin.


    “Jerk!”


    “Disgusting!”


    “Filthy!”<div>


    “He’ll get hiseuppance one day.”


    “Xiang, we should not cry. We should be grateful that Yuan Qin didn’t marry you.”


    “Today he didn’t marry you, tomorrow he won’t be worth it. Xiang, we support you!”


    In a short time, everyone who had initially been ming Ji Baixing started ming Yin Qin instead.


    Not only was Yin Qin criticized, his show “Hall of Heaven” was also collectively boycotted on the inte. Consequently, the audience ratings for thetest episode, the third tost, copsed drastically. The number of people watching it online can be counted on one hand. Moreover, those who did watch it were cursed and ridiculed mercilessly online. This caused a lot of conflicting opinions, and even the fans of the cast members were ming Yin Qin, demandingpensation for the tarnished reputation of their idols.


    Yin Qin sat in a board meeting.


    All the board members wore dark expressions throughout the meeting.


    Trying to appease Yin Qin for a week, no, not even a week and look how things turned out now.


    A spendthrift will always be a spendthrift. His power was only due to a stint of good luck. If the Milky Way Group falls into his hands in the future, it would surely be doomed.


    Yin Ying also attended the board meeting that day.


    She looked at Yin Qin sarcastically, curious to see how he would resolve things with the board.


    “Chairman, why don’t you say something? Not only did the viewership of ‘Hall of Heaven’ plummet again, and even lower than before, more importantly, the share price of the entire Milky Way Group is also falling. If this continues, will our Group go bankrupt?!”


    Yin Qin lifted his head to look at the board member speaking and said, “I will figure something out.”<div>


    “What can you possiblye up with?!” Zhang Qiang was desperate, “For the sake of Ji Baixing, you’ve jeopardized your own business. What were you thinking? If Weng Cheng was here, he would never make this mistake!”


    “Absolutely not.” Other members of the board echoed, “If it was Weng Cheng, he would have never risked the livelihoods of thousands of employees of the Milky Way Group. Why don’t we collectively plead for Weng Cheng at the court? Considering it’s his first offense, he might avoid jail.”


    “Let’s go ask the court.” The board members rallied.


    Yin Ying chimed in with a helpless tone, “Considering the severity of Weng Cheng’s crime, I didn’t originally intend to intervene. But seeing the current situation, if Yin Qin’s in charge of thepany, I truly fear that all our funds will be drained. However, we appreciate your sentiment. We’ve consulted awyer. The biggest victim is Yin Qin. Only with his forgiveness can Weng Cheng have a chance at a reduced sentence, or even probation, avoiding immediate incarceration.”


    “Chairman, if you’re not interested in working, why not ask for Weng Cheng’s pardon. He was also confused temporarily, don’t take it to heart.” Zhang Qiang proposed hastily.


    Yin Qin looked up at him.


    “Yes, if you don’t want to work, go back to your love life, go get married, and leave the work to those who need it. Don’t take up other people’s ces here.” Another board member also chimed in quickly.


    Yin Qin suddenly stood up from his chair, stayed silent and left the room.


    All the board members were shocked. After a moment, Zhang Qiang said with annoyance, “Is this Yin Qin’s attitude? This profligate child, the Milky Way Group would surely go down in his hands!”


    “I’d rather hire a CEO than have Yin Qin in charge! Absolutely uneptable!”


    “If it’s not Weng Cheng, it absolutely must not be Yin Qin.”


    “Yes.”


    The conference room was filled with noisy chatter.<div>


    Yin Ying smirked at the corner of her mouth.


    That little rat Yin Qin, it’s just as she suspected?!


    Given the current viewership of “Hall of Heaven”, the ultimate episode’s viewership wouldn’t possibly reach 2.


    By then, she could take away Yin Qin’s 5% shares.


    More importantly,


    Her son really was smarter than her.


    Ji Baixing was vited, and Yin Qin surely wouldn’t sit by idly. He also certainly wouldn’t reach out tow enforcement, exposing Ji Baixing’s vition would mean making it public. In order to protect Ji Baixing, Yin Qin surely wouldn’t use legal means. That being said, once Yin Qin makes a move, they could seize the opportunity to bring him down. Even if her son goes to jail, Yin Qin will have to follow!


    With these thoughts in mind, Yin Ying cackled once more.


    She was eagerly waiting for Yin Qin to dig his own grave.


    …


    Milky Way Group. Chairman’s office.


    Yin Qin was dealing with paperwork.


    He’s been working overtime almost every day, nonstop overtime.<div>


    Since the incident, no one was willing to help him anymore. Even many members of the project team hadints or voiced grievances against him.


    Theyined that he disregarded their hard work entirely. They finally managed to raise viewership for “Hall of Heaven” after a lot of effort, but he ruthlessly said to destroy it and let it be destroyed, causing a lot of work to be pushed forward by Yin Qin himself, which was obviously difficult.


    He picked up the phone, “Secretary Wu, make me a cup of coffee, ck coffee.”


    After saying that, he hung up the phone.


    He leaned back in his seat.


    It was now the early hours of the morning, but he didn’t want to leave the office.


    He didn’t know what he could solve, he couldn’t think of a better way to deal with the current state of Yin He, or, he was just trying to avoid something!


    The office door was pushed open.


    Yin Qin sat up straight, his eyes on theputer in front of him, saying, “Just put it down.”


    The coffee was put beside him but the person did not leave.


    Yin Qin turned his head.


    The moment he turned his head, he saw Ji Baixing in front of him.


    Yin Qin took his hands off the keyboard, “What are you doing here?”


    “I’ve been here for a while now, wanting to wait for you to go back together, but I didn’t expect you didn’t seem to have the intention of going off work.” Ji Baixing said.


    “You could just call me.”


    “Would youe back if I called?” Ji Baixing asked.


    Yin Qin didn’t answer.


    “I’ve read the news. Yin He’s stock market has been falling heavily recently. If it continues like this, I’m afraid…” Ji Baixing didn’t finish his sentence.


    Yin Qin also knew.


    Now the whole name boycotts Yin He, boycotts the news of Yin He, boycotts the programs of Yin He, boycotts the video APP of Yin He, Yin He’s lost a lot during this time. If it continues to deteriorate, it will soon dere bankruptcy!


    “All of this was caused by your negative news. Actually, you’re not what the outside world says. Why don’t you rify it properly?” Ji Baixin asked him.


    “There’s nothing to rify.”


    If it can’t be, he would just resign.


    He said, “No need. It would be useless to rify, no one would believe it.”


    “If Luo Xianges forward…”


    “Baixin.” Yin Qin looked at Ji Baixing.


    Ji Baixing bit his lip.


    “I don’t want to involve her in our matters anymore.”


    Ji Baixing was silent.


    “Let’s go, staying here won’t solve any problem. I’ll apany you home.” Yin Qin grabbed his suit jacket and left with Ji Baixing.


    Wu Meili watched as their backs disappeared into the distance, unable to suppress a sigh.


    Is it worth it for a Ji Baixing?


    She knew that sooner orter her chairman would be ruined by this woman.


    They returned to Ji Baixing’s apartment.


    The two of them took separate showers and went to bed separately.


    Yin Qin always slept on the sofa.


    They weren’t married, but they were living together.


    Living together, but not sleeping in the same bed.


    Ji Baixing wanted to speak up several times, but Yin Qin had alreadyy down on the sofa with his nket.


    The truth is…


    She also found it difficult to move past the shadow, she also found it difficult to get intimate with Yin Qin. Every time she remembered what happened that night, it made her fearful and even terrified of anything happening in bed!


    The next day.


    Yin Qin left early in the morning.


    Ji Baixing woke up to find that Yin Qin was gone.


    There was a note left in the room, “I went to work first.”


    This happened several mornings.


    She couldn’t even catch a glimpse of Yin Qin before he left.


    She made herself breakfast, ate while listening to the news on the radio as was her habit.


    “Currently, Yin He’s market share continues to decline, and the online boycott against Yin He is bing increasingly heated. If this continues, Yin He is likely facing bankruptcy. Experts analyze that Yin He has two possible next moves. The first is to vigorously guard Weng Cheng and let him return to work at Yin He, but with the feud between Yin Qin and Weng Cheng, his return is highly unlikely; the second is for Yin Qin to resign and hire a new CEO to restructure Yin He. Regardless of which way is chosen, Yin Qin’s career at Yin He wille to a halt, and it will be even harder for Yin Qin to develop further in the future…”


    Ji Baixing listened quietly.


    When she’d finished eating, she washed up the dishes and turned off the radio.


    Then, she picked up the phone and dialed a number.


    The phone was finally answered after a long time, “Hello.”


    “Xiang, it’s Baixin.”


    The other end of the line was silent for a moment.


    Just as.


    The sound of a baby crying came from the other end.


    “Are you busy?” Baixin asked.


    “Little Tiger just woke up, crying for milk.”


    “I’ll find youter then, you take care of Little Tiger first.”


    “Hmm.” Luo Xiang hung up the phone.


    Ms. Wu was making powdered milk for Little Tiger whileforting him.


    Luo Xiang hurried over, “Let me do it.”


    Ms. Wu stopped and held Little Tiger.


    It’s been five days.


    There’s still no milk.


    They tried many methods, did as the doctor instructed, even hired a milk boost therapist to help her, but nothing worked, there was no milk, it was gonepletely.


    Now, thankfully, Little Tiger has finally begun to slowly ept powdered milk.


    Who knows how difficult this process has been!
