In order to catch up with the progress, everyone in the crew skipped lunch and worked until two in the afternoon, finally finishing work ten minutes ahead of schedule before the heavy rain came.

When Jiang Yan took the bus back after removing her makeup, she kept reading the comments under the video. Jiang Yan now has over 10 million fans, thanks to Zhao Huixin adding an email address for fans to the app. Jiang Yan often chats with them there, and gradually she has many loyal fans, so the fans are basically all supportive.

But even so, she still couldn't prevent someone from buying a large number of black fans and coming to her place to cause trouble.

Now, the lawyer introduced by Xi Zining came in handy.

The three of them sat around the dinner table in tacit agreement, and Tan Xiaoyun watched the time pass by bit by bit, and said anxiously: "What if he didn't see the video? Let's go out and look for him!"

Jiang Yan: "No one moves, just wait here."

Given Zhao Ke's personality, she would definitely check the news online in real time to know if she was implicated because of him.

After another period of silence, the three of them finally welcomed the long-awaited doorbell in silence.

When Jiang Yan opened the door, she saw Zhao Ke with his head bowed deeply and his body almost completely wet.

He stammered in a low voice: "I'm sorry, I've caused trouble for everyone. I, you are a good person, you all are, so I..."

Jiang Yan didn't want to listen to his explanation. She looked at the time and said, "It's eight and three minutes. Your year-end bonus is gone."

Then she glanced at his wet hair and said, "Change your clothes and come over for dinner."

"Okay, okay, you're back." Yang Wei quickly called him in and took out a towel to wipe his hair. "Why don't you hold an umbrella? What if you get sick?"

Zhao Ke was too ashamed to say anything and just let Yang Wei's hands ravage her head, feeling a little bit like venting her anger.

After changing her clothes and coming out, she saw everyone sitting at the dining table waiting for her. She sat down slowly and looked at Jiang Yan aggrievedly, "I..."

"Let's eat." Jiang Yan said that she was still angry and didn't want to pay attention to him for the time being.

Tan Xiaoyun served him a bowl of hot soup, feeling distressed and complaining, "If you do this again, no one will forgive you, understand!"

Zhao Ke nodded hurriedly, "There won't be a next time, I promise!"

Zhao Ke took the dish from Yang Wei and tasted it from the first bite. A tear fell into the bowl. He had done something wrong but everyone was still treating him well as usual. Although Jiang Yan was angry on the surface, she still cooked for him.

He really couldn't help it, "Wow, I'm sorry..."

Zhao Ke's soft sobs gradually turned into loud crying, and her tears kept falling down, and no matter how Yang Wei tried to comfort her, she couldn't stop them.

"Stop crying!" Jiang Yan yelled, looking unhappy. "People who choose to run away when faced with trouble have no right to cry. Eat your meal!"

Zhao Ke was frightened and trembled. She then started crying silently and ate with big mouthfuls, just like a poor peasant who was bullied and oppressed by the landlord.

Jiang Yan sighed and wordlessly picked up a piece of food for him.

After the meal, everyone went about their own business, and everything was the same as before, as if nothing had happened. Yang Wei and Zhao Ke said that the matter was in the past, and repeatedly bringing it up made Jiang Yan angry.

Don't be careless and step on the landmine again.

Zhao Ke took this to heart and vowed to work harder in the future to live up to everyone's trust.

When she arrived at the crew the next day, everyone looked at Jiang Yan with strange eyes, as if they didn't understand what she did, but they also sincerely admired her courage and responsibility.

Many media outlets rushed to interview Jiang Yan, asking her if she wanted to use this opportunity to increase her popularity.

A girl with short hair put the microphone in Jiang Yan's face and said, "You keep someone by your side so willfully. Aren't you afraid that it will have a bad impact on the TV series?"

Jiang Yan was not in a hurry to respond. He pulled Zhao Ke in front of the camera and asked him to be interviewed. He mustered up the courage to look directly at the camera. He was wearing a mask and only showed a pair of deer eyes. "I apologize for my previous misguided path, but please give me a chance!"

The reporter looked at those eyes and couldn't say anything malicious, so Jiang Yan spoke up, "The so-called influence was not caused by him, but by the person who maliciously broke the news, and by me who hired him. Please spend your time on serious news, and don't always pay attention to whether the people around me have committed crimes!

In addition, I will be announcing something big this afternoon, so please stay tuned.”

Before the reporter asked what happened, the director also stood up to express his support for Jiang Yan, saying that if the media stayed any longer, it would affect the filming of the crew.

He has been filming for several years and has never seen such an artist who dares to speak out and confront public opinion. If this happened to someone else, the first thing they would do would be to fire the staff member with the stain. How could they dare to bring Zhao Ke out openly like Jiang Yan did and shield him from all the criticism?

As soon as the interview video was released, countless people were waiting for her move.

After waiting till 5pm, the big event that Jiang Yan had mentioned finally happened. But no one expected that she would post all the people who had slandered and insulted her in the memo in a lawyer's letter. Those marketing accounts that were wearing vests were also forced to reveal their true colors. In a short period of time, they issued a 1,000-word handwritten apology letter, each sentence of which was to sell misery and gain sympathy, hoping that Jiang Yan would be kind enough to let them go.

But no matter how heartfelt their writings were, Jiang Yan would tell them anyway.

There were a total of 352 people, and Jiang Yan didn't let any of them go.

Now even primary school students know that Jiang Yan is a female star who is vindictive and domineering.

When Zhou Yanwan learned the news, Jiang Yan had already solved the matter perfectly. In order to make Jiang Yan happy, she revealed a few things she had done recently.

"The unknown businessman who secretly dealt with Baidi and caused him to lose hundreds of millions is my grandmother?"

No wonder Bai Wenyao has been contacting her recently, hinting that she should hand over the shares of Shangyi. If it were in the past, he would not have bothered so much, but now that Zhou Yanwan is back, she has kept the shares of Shangyi firmly for Jiang Yan, and there is no chance to take them back.

In desperation, he said that Baidi's project had failed, and there were some problems in the economic chain, and he urgently needed financial assistance from his superiors.

Jiang Yan didn't know much about business, but she knew how big Baidi was. If it was a small matter, she wouldn't need Shangyi's help at all. But if it was a big matter... even if she sold Shangyi, it wouldn't solve the current problem.

Zhou Yanwan asked her to agree to hand over her shares, but on the condition that she must pay off the dividends that Jiang Yan should have received over the years.

During this period, she secretly put pressure on Bai Di, deliberately letting people spread rumors that this incident was a joint effort by several companies to weaken Bai Di's prestige and shake the Bai family's position in the imperial capital. As long as the loss reached a certain amount, they would stop targeting. Zhou Yanwan knew that Bai Wenyao would take this gamble, betting that he would sell out the emperor's will in order to save Bai Di.

This was the only way he could prevent bankruptcy.

After Bai Wenyao sells Shangyi, Zhou Yanwan will buy it back at a different price. By then, Jiang Yan will be the only owner of Shangyi.
