Yun Nan looked at the reporters who were badgering the issue, staring at them until they stopped talking, and the entire place fell silent before saying, “Why should we have to come out to prove and explain ourselves every time there’s a rumor about us?”
“We’re public figures, but we don’t have the obligation to satisfy everyone’s need for gossip and curiosity. I’m tired of saying things like ‘the truth will speak for itself.’ For those who can tell right from wrong, there’s no need for us to explain, and for those who want to slander Shi Xiu, there’s no use in explaining.”
Yun Nan’s firm and imposing manner deterred the media reporters, who had come prepared with a whole load of twisted logic. Yun Innovations had never been soft-hearted when it came to those who spread rumors and slandered others, after all.
Yun Nan suddenly smiled. “I might as well keep everyone in suspense today. I want to see how the truth will come to light and who will get slapped in the face then. Even though things get recorded and preserved on the Internet, it doesn’t stop people from stirring up trouble. Isn’t that because the cost of spreading rumors is too slight?”
“This time, to teach these rumormongers a lesson, I’ll pay to put the matter on the trending list out of my own pocket on the day the rumors get exposed as false. I’ll put the truth up with the rumors on the headlines for others to compare!”
Some of the reporters’ expressions changed when they heard that. “Yun Nan, don’t do that! It’s not a good idea to do that!” Lu Hui said, looking serious. “Why not?” Yun Nan glanced at her and asked, thinking, ‘This girl has finally caught on and knows how to set up a conversation. As expected, it’s easiest to learn through experience. She grew up more in this instance than in learning from Fang Xi and I.’
Lu Hui replied with a cheery smile, “There are too many rumors about Yun Innovations. You’ll have to pay to put them on the trending list every time one gets exposed, and they’ll have to be on the list for ten days at a time. I’m worried you’ll go bankrupt!”
Yun Innovations’ employees started to laugh, and the media reporters’ momentum weakened. They came here en masse to condemn Shi Xiu and Yun Innovations but were unexpectedly and forcefully led astray by Yun Nan.
Shi Nian rushed home to see Yun Nan calmly cooking in the kitchen, and his nerves relaxed slightly. Yun Nan heard him come in, so she turned and called out, “Dinner will be served soon.”
Shi Nian changed out of his shoes and went to the kitchen. “I heard that some reporters caused a ruckus at Yun Innovations today. I’m sorry, I was in a meeting the entire afternoon—I‘
Yun Nan turned around and smiled. “It’s alright. Everything’s resolved!”
Shi Nian exhaled lightly. Yun Nan was too independent, making him seem redundant. Shi Nian already knew the ins and outs of the whole thing from Chang Yuan, but still asked, “I heard rumors about Shi Xiu are flying around again; is that right?”
Yun Nan handed the dishes that were done to him, gestured for him to bring them to the dining table, and loudly told him, “That’s how the entertainment industry works. They’ll believe anything they hear and make a fuss about nothing! I’ve already informed Mika; Shi Xiu will be fine.”
Shi Nian helped to set the cutlery as he remarked, “Tell the legal department to have at it. You can use our company’s lavvyers if you don’t have enough manpower.”
Yun Nan smiled. “There’s no need to raise such a big commotion. I did tell those media reporters today that I would send them a lawyer’s letter, but it was just talk. I don’t have the time to fuss over such nonsense with them.”
Shi Nian pulled Yun Nan into his arms and said seriously, “No one is allowed to bully my wife or my sister! ”
And with that, Shi Nian kissed Yun Nan’s lips. Yun Nan struggled for a bit, but Shi Nian wouldn’t let her escape. Ever since the man recovered from his injuries, it was as if he had been released from his shackles. As long as they were together, he constantly wanted to kiss and hug Yun Nan and got extremely clingy.
When Shi Nian finally ended the long kiss, Yun Nan lightly hit him in mock rebuke and said softly, “Stop fooling around and eat dinner!”
Shi Nian was reluctant to let her go. He kissed her earlobe and muttered,
“Dinner can’t compare to my wife!”
Yun Nan blushed and mock-scowled. “Are you saying my food isn’t delicious? I worked hard to make it!”
Shi Nian chuckled. The coquettish woman in front of him was a completely different person from the sharp- tongued and domineering director he had seen in the video of her talking the crowd down. He had to admit that, no matter which side of Yun Nan it was, he loved them all. She was his treasure girl.
Yun Nan pushed him away to scoop some soup and rice. Face still blushing, she forcefully changed the topic. “I reckon the media will throw a bigger fuss tomorrow, so be mentally prepared!”
Shi Nian sat down, took a sip of the soup, and stated with a look of satisfaction, “I’ll see which media outlet is causing a ruckus and get Chang Yuan to evaluate its worth.”
Yun Nan was momentarily stunned and laughed. “Isn’t that a bit much?”
Shi Nian didn’t even look up as he replied, “This is nothing. Liang Han is expanding his business in the industry, so I’m only helping him..”
