Quick Wear: Reversing Life

Chapter 8: Desperate Housewives’ Counterattack (08)

After returning home from the old house, Cheng Yu suddenly caught a cold. Liu Xinyan didn't want to be infected, so she asked him to sleep in the second bedroom.

Cheng Yu didn't want to infect his wife with the disease, so he moved back to the second bedroom.

Liu Xinyan hadn't gone out to have fun for a while, so she contacted You Yue to get together and check on the progress of the movie.

You Yue has no time to get together recently. Her movie is already in production. She is busy like a top every day and has not been able to play for a long time.

However, with You Yue taking the lead, Liu Xinyan met several friends at various gatherings. They were all young people, some of whom were still in college.

One of the boys was named Liao Changhe. He had an honest face and had just graduated from college. His family had some money and gave him some start-up capital, but it was not enough for him. So he hung out in various high-end places and specifically picked those rich second-generations who were stupid and had a lot of money to raise funds for his projects.

But among the rich second generation nowadays, none of them are stupid and have a lot of money. The families of stupid people will not give too much money, but those who have a lot of money are not stupid.

He picked and chose, and finally set his sights on Liu Xinyan, the newly rich lady.

Liao Changhe heard from somewhere that this rich woman invested 10 million in a new director without blinking an eye.

Liu Xinyan has not been very active during this period, but Liao Changhe somehow found a way to contact Liu Xinyan through a friend of You Yue.

Thinking that it had been a while since I had gone out to play, I decided to go out and relax and agreed to Liao Changhe's request.

I have to say that this young man is really good at playing tricks and has held all kinds of fancy parties. Liu Xinyan has had a lot of fun these days, and Liao Changhe is also very understanding. He didn't mention anything irrelevant that day and just played along.

After coming out of the dance floor, Liu Xinyan drank the mixed drink, glanced at Liao Changhe, and smiled: "Bring it over and have a look."

The background music was loud and noisy. It took Liao Changhe a long time to react. He quickly took out a tablet from his bag and handed it to Liu Xinyan in a flattering manner.

"You haven't been bringing your tablet with you these past few days, have you?"

Liao Changhe smiled and scratched the back of his head.

Liu Xinyan slid her finger up and down the screen, and returned it to Liao Changhe after not looking at it for long.

"Even if you show this plan to those brainless rich second-generations, they won't buy it." Liu Xinyan tilted her head and glanced at him.

"Do you know how much it takes to start an entertainment company? Few star-making projects launched by companies backed by big capital have succeeded. Do you think you can succeed?"

Liao Changhe said seriously: "I know, I don't intend to take the serious route."

He chuckled and said, "Sister, you know short videos and short dramas are very popular. The cost is not high, and those that are well-made can make a lot of money."

Liao Changhe sat a little closer and said, "Sister, didn't you go to the casting with that director? Look at the many students at the film academy, how many of them become famous every year? I'm afraid someone will take the role even if the pay is low."

Liu Xinyan laughed. "Do you only care about cheap labor? What kind of content do audiences like to watch? How to select scripts? How to market and attract traffic? You should figure these things out first before you tell me."

Although she rejected Liao Changhe, what he wrote was actually still remarkable. If he really wanted to do well, it was not impossible. It was just that he was still in the stage of talking about it on paper. She was not stupid. Would she invest millions of dollars and let it go to waste?

...

But no one expected that Liao Changhe really listened to Liu Xinyan's words. This guy was really good at studying. I don't know how he got into it, but he actually joined a film crew and worked as an assistant behind a stage manager. He actually learned something from him and earned a few hundred dollars.

More than a month later, he contacted Liu Xinyan again with the latest plan.

Liu Xinyan was currently attending a jewelry brand launch conference, and most of the attendees were wealthy ladies from City S, including Mrs. Ma Zhou Jiayi, who had been greeted at the previous parent-teacher meeting.

Zhou Jiayi wore a set of jewelry, held a glass of champagne, and chatted happily with Liu Xinyan.

"I heard Seth is planning to hold a parent-child sports meeting. Oh, you said we are already old, and you still want us to sign up for events."

"Parent-child sports meeting?" Liu Xinyan widened her eyes. She rarely read emails and text messages sent by the class teacher and didn't know about this.

"That's right, it's just like kindergarten."

One of them, Mrs. Jia, is also a parent at Seth. She said, "I heard that most of the parents of this year's students were former Seth students, so they organized this event. I heard the prizes are very interesting."

Liu Xinyan held her forehead and prepared to go back and ask Cheng Hao.

People from the surrounding area came over one after another to socialize. Everyone had heard that Mrs. Cheng from Ruida had been appearing more frequently recently, so they all wanted to join in the fun.

Liu Xinyan originally just came here to expand her circle. After all, she still wanted to find out about Chang Ling. During this period, she only saw the Chang family's car picking up Chang Xiner from school, but there was no news about Chang Ling.

Chang Xin'er and Cheng Hao didn't interact much at school. Although Cheng Hao was a lively guy, he hadn't yet grasped the concept of love between men and women. Chang Xin'er herself was a quiet person, and she rarely looked for Cheng Hao unless it was necessary to socialize.

It seems that the mission is progressing bit by bit, but Liu Xinyan is afraid that Chang Ling will suddenly do something big.

"Hey, isn't that Xue Mingying?" Zhou Jiayi suddenly saw someone not far away.

"It's her, doesn't she always disdain to participate in this kind of activities?"

Following the line of sight, I saw a woman wearing white haute couture. She had a fairly slim figure and a green jade necklace around her neck, which made her look rich and radiant.

Xue Mingying, this name sounds familiar.

Zhou Jiayi glanced at Liu Xinyan, and Liu Xinyan then remembered that Xue Mingying was also a socialite in S City. Her family was in the automobile industry, and she later married the second son of Rongye Food.

None of this is important. What is important is that she once loved Cheng Yu very much, but she couldn't interfere with the childhood friendship between Cheng Yu and Chang Ling. Later, Chang Ling married someone else. Xue Mingying seemed to see hope and kept lobbying her parents to hope to marry into the Cheng family, but she didn't expect that the daughter of a newly rich man would get there first.

So Liu Xinyan became Xue Mingying's public enemy number one.

In the socialite circle at that time, Xue Mingying was the one with the most say. She spread the word that anyone who showed goodwill to Liu Xinyan would be openly becoming her enemy.

Later, after Xue Mingying got married, the turmoil against Liu Xinyan gradually subsided.

"Isn't she the one who disdains attending brand launches like this? Why is she here?"

"I heard there was a fire in her backyard. I didn't expect she'd still be in the mood to come here." A wealthy lady who had a feud with Xue Mingying curled her lips. Seeing everyone's surprised expressions, she said, "You didn't know?"

"She's very concerned about her reputation. In the early years, she loved to promote her loving relationship with her husband and the excellence of their children in front of us. Unexpectedly, some time ago, her husband brought home a child."

"Illegitimate child?" someone exclaimed.

This kind of thing is not new in the upper class circles, but no man dares to bring an illegitimate child home openly.

Zhou Jiayi quickly asked, "Can the Xue family accept it?"

"Didn't I just say that Xue Mingying is a person who values ​​her reputation the most? How could she let everyone know about this?"

"Oh my god, so I'm going to suffer this loss in silence? But how did you know this?"

The wealthy lady smiled complacently and said, "Don't worry about it. The news is authentic anyway."

"Looking at her state today, it doesn't seem like there are so many dirty things going on at home."

Liu Xinyan took a sip of the champagne in her hand and looked at Xue Mingying not far away. She was not interested in this person. The original owner had not dealt with this woman many times in her memory. However, she had some impression of her husband, Rong Zekai, the second son of Rongye Food.

Rong Zekai probably felt that his wife once had a crush on Cheng Yu, so he was always at odds with her. Furthermore, Ruida Group also had a small food company under its umbrella, which was also a competitor of Rong Zekai, so he was always engaging in some unsightly and vicious competition against Ruida.

What impressed Liu Xinyan the most was that, according to the original owner's memory, about four months later, the Ruida Group would experience a public relations crisis, and the problem would arise with the minced meat jerky series of foods under the food company.

Someone posted on various platforms complaining that their entire family felt sick, suffering from vomiting and diarrhea, after eating the dish, and that they believed the ingredients in the dish were unclean. Other netizens commented that they had experienced the same thing in their own family, and they thought they had eaten something else unclean.

Some people also say that xx Food is backed by a large group like Ruida. If the ingredients used in its food are not clean, it is hard not to suspect other industries under its umbrella.

As expected, someone revealed that its medical facilities were using drugs in violation of regulations, and for a time, there was an outcry against Ruida on the Internet.

Cheng Yu was extremely busy during that time and didn't even go home for the New Year's Eve dinner.

Fortunately, Ruida relied on its previously accumulated reputation to turn the situation around. It was only later that the original owner learned from Gao Shujun that it was Rong Zekai who was behind this scheme, buying online influencers, trending searches, and marketing accounts to orchestrate this low-level business war.

Looking at Xue Mingying's smiling face not far away, Liu Xinyan was curious whether she, as his wife, knew about what Rong Zekai had done.

-

Liu Xinyan had just walked out of the banquet hall of the press conference after receiving the message from Liao Changhe. She didn't expect that this guy would be so persistent.

After receiving the reply, Liao Changhe came quickly. It was raining outside and he didn't bring an umbrella, so he got a little wet.

Liu Xinyan called for someone to bring him a dry towel with disgust.

"Thank you, sister. This is my newly revised plan. Please take a look." Liao Changhe handed the tablet over with both hands and said with a smile, "I listened to everything you said last time. I went to this kind of theater to conduct an on-site inspection and even met a director who specializes in this kind of film."

Liu Xinyan glanced at him and took the tablet. It was indeed much more mature than what she wrote last time.

She looked at Liao Changhe again, this college graduate who had just graduated. While young people of the same age as him were still studying abroad and squandering their family's money on food, drink and entertainment, this guy was soliciting investments everywhere.

Liu Xinyan admired all ambitious people. She handed the tablet to Liao Changhe and also handed him a card. "The money in here should be enough for you to do it. I won't interfere with your arrangements, but I need you to help me with something."

...

When Liu Xinyan returned home, she saw Cheng Hao and Lin Yusheng changing clothes for the little boy in the living room.

Looking at the small pile of colorful clothes on the coffee table, Liu Xinyan took out her cell phone and took pictures of the two of them.

"Send this to your dad to see what your eldest son, who's about to start his sophomore year in high school, is doing."

"Mom, what are you doing?" Cheng Hao picked up the little mound to shield himself: "The temperature will drop soon, can't I buy it some clothes?"

The little mound was already a little afraid of Liu Xinyan. When he saw her coming, he immediately turned his head around and refused to look at her.

Liu Xinyan put down her phone: "Xiao Jiang hasn't come yet?" Today was the day Jiang Yu came to tutor her, she looked at the clock and asked.

"She said there was a traffic jam!" Cheng Hao said.

"It's raining outside. I don't know if she's okay. Go pick her up later. Xiaolin, don't leave later. Do your homework with Cheng Hao."

Lin Yusheng:?

Cheng Hao: Hehe.

Liu Xinyan asked the kitchen aunt to prepare ginger soup to dispel the cold and share it with everyone. It has been raining and the temperature has dropped recently, and Cheng Yu’s cold has not healed yet. She was worried that other people in the family would be infected as well.

When I went upstairs, I found that Cheng Yu was also at home. He was coming out of the bedroom with a cup in his hand and watched Liu Xinyan take off the jewelry she was wearing and walk into the room.

Cheng Yu turned her head and took a look. She didn't like wearing jewelry before, preferring gold. However, she was bright and beautiful, so she looked good in both gold and jewelry.

All the jewelry in the house were bought for her by Gao Shujun, and some were the dowry of the original owner.

Seeing Cheng Yu still standing outside the door, Liu Xinyan asked in confusion, "What are you looking at?"

"Nothing, you look good in jewelry."

Cheng Yu was a man who never hesitated to say nice things as long as he wanted to. Liu Xinyan didn't think he was being sincere and said casually, "Don't just praise me. Take some practical action and buy me a few more sets."
