Chapter 827: Gathering
On the second day, the media released reports about the details of the product launch and, apart from the introduction of the Ai Shang products that were written in ink, they also reported about the charity organization that the Old Mr. Wen was going to found in Wen Xinya’s name.
There were even some articles about Yang Ziyu making use of her pregnancy to cause a stir in the Wen Corporation. They briefly reported the process of the incident, as well as Wen Xinya’s performance during the matter.
The Wen Corporation’s stock prices had also skyrocketed because of the successful product launch. It had already risen beyond 3000 points and, according to the a.n.a.lysis made by professionals, the Wen Corporation stock prices would reach a record high in the upcoming week. They predicted that the stock prices would rise beyond 5000 points!
All the stockholders were flabbergasted.
Wen Xinya had bought plenty of the Wen Corporation’s shares with the help of Ouyang Feng. She was planning to make a huge earning.
Old Mr. Wen was in charge of handling the matter of the Xiao Family and Jiang Family colluding with each other to plot against the Wen Family. Hence, she did not worry about it. Her main focus was on the Xia Family and Xia Ruya.
Two days ago, Tianchao Private Investigation Company found out that they had lost track of Xia Ruya’s whereabouts. At the same time, one of the four men had also gone missing. The three other men were searching for the missing man and Xia Ruya, while the Xia Family was still in the dark about Xia Ruya going missing.
Wen Xinya guessed that Xia Ruya must have convinced the abductor to take her away, though she did not know what benefits Xia Ruya had offered the man.
Wen Xinya sighed and thought to herself, Xia Ruya is really something. No matter what happens, she never fails to find a way out!
However, she had no idea where Xia Ruya was at the moment!
Wen Xinya stopped paying attention to Xia Ruya after a while. She sent Yan Shaoqing a text message and told him to keep tabs on the Xia Family’s situation and get ready to purchase the land.
Wen Xinya arranged to meet Gu Junling, Ling Qingxuan and the rest for dinner in the evening.
This time, the product launch could proceed smoothly all thanks to their help.
Zhou Tianyu smiled and said, “Xinya, congratulations on having such a successful product launch. I heard that the results are excellent and lots of people are singing high praises about the products.”
She did not attend the product launch of Ai Shang Cosmetics, though she had indeed watched some related videos on the internet. She was well aware of Wen Xinya’s performance and she had also been paying close attention to Ai Shang’s products.
Xu Tongxuan said, “Xinya, I’d like to congratulate you for managing to organize such a successful product launch and securing your place in the Wen Corporation.”
She had placed emphasis on the matter because she knew Wen Xinya had a hard time getting to where she was today. As Wen Xinya’s friends, they knew how much effort, blood, sweat, and tears she had put into achieving what she had today. Hence, they were genuinely happy for her.
Feeling extremely touched, Wen Xinya raised the gla.s.s in her hand and said, “Thank you guys so much. Here’s a toast to you guys!”
She then raised her head and downed the liquor in one gulp.
Zhou Tianyu and Xu Tongxuan cheered her on while Ling Qingxuan applauded and exclaimed, “Great! Xinya is really suave.”
Wen Xinya stood up and raised her gla.s.s while facing Gu Junling. “Junling, thank you so much for helping me with the product launch this time. Here’s a toast from me to you.”
She then raised her head and downed the liquor in one gulp.
Gu Junling finished the gla.s.s of liquor at one go. Waving his hands, he said, “It was just a simple favor. Besides, your family paid a hefty amount of endors.e.m.e.nt fees. There’s no need to make it sound so formal.”
Wen Xinya then toasted to Ling Qingxuan.
Ling Qingxuan hurriedly said, “Don’t say anything, let’s drink!”
He then chugged the liquor.
Wen Xinya followed suit.
A sudden enthusiasm filled the air. Gu Junling smiled and said, “Xinya, the beauty consultants at Floral Lingo Pavilion have given Ai Shang’s products high ratings. Hence, Floral Lingo Pavilion is preparing to directly cooperate with the Wen Corporation. Would you like to take on this partners.h.i.+p?”
Wen Xinya was not surprised at all. Previously, Gu Junling had mentioned about it before. “I’ll be very glad to do so. The partners.h.i.+p would aid is in advancing towards globalization. This is great for Ai Shang’s future.”
Gu Junling exclaimed, “Alright! We’ll discuss the details of the cooperation later.”
Wen Xinya did not have any objections.
Zhou Tianyu asked, “By the way, have you found out the ident.i.ty of the person who instigated Yang Ziyu to harm the Wen Family?”
None of them thought that it was purely a case of revenge, and they were certain that there was more to the matter.
Wen Xinya’s smile faded and she answered, “Yang Ziyu merely said that she was the only person behind this, and she’s been remaining tight-lipped about the other details. She sneaked out of the hospital last night and we’ve lost track of her whereabouts. However, I know that this matter definitely has something to do with the Xiao Family and Jiang Family.”
She had already expected that they were the ones behind it. Since they were so brazen, it simply meant that they were confident that they would not be implicated.
Wen Xinya’s words confirmed their guesses.
Gu Junling asked, “What do you plan to do, then?”
Wen Xinya was not to be trifled with. Hence, she would definitely not let them off easily. Those who understood her would know that she would take revenge where it was due.
Wen Xinya glanced at Ling Qingxuan and said, “I already have a plan, but I’ll need Qingxuan to help me with the media-related matters.”
She wanted to let the Xiao Family know what it meant by the “The Wen Family’s authority is not to be challenged”.
Ling Qingxuan patted his chest and said, “Feel free to ask me whenever you need help.”
Zhou Tianyu and Xu Tongxuan looked at each other before saying, “I really pity those who go against Xinya.”
Ning Shuqian, Xia Ruya, Ning Yuya, Jiang Ruoyin and the Xia Family had all ended up in dire straits after going against Wen Xinya.
Xu Tongxuan agreed with Zhou Tianyu. “Speaking of which, I’m suddenly reminded of something. I accompanied my father to the Western district yesterday and I think I saw Xia Ruya there, though I’m not too sure if it was really her…”
Zhou Tianyu exclaimed, “What do you mean you’re not too sure? It’s either her or it’s not. Is your eyesight alright?”
Xu Tongxuan frowned and said, “The woman whom I saw resembles Xia Ruya a lot, but her hair was very messy. She was wearing a men’s jacket that was rather dirty as well. I just thought that her back view resembled that of Xia Ruya’s, so I took a double-take. It did seem like her though.”
They quickly looked at Xu Tongxuan and said, “Did you see clearly? Why would Xia Ruya be at the West? She may be in a pathetic plight now, but she still has a ton of money. I doubt she’ll be reduced to that state.”
Upon hearing her words, Xu Tongxuan nodded and said, “I must have seen wrongly, then.”
Wen Xinya smirked and thought to herself, That woman must be Xia Ruya. She’s lucky enough to have run away from the abductors. What else is she hoping for? Seems like I must find out what she went through while she was abducted.
