nAfter discussing how to deal with the crisis of public opinion brought by Yu Wan, Yu Lang and Yu Heng took action.
nYu Wan’s phone rang. She looked at the caller ID and revealed a mocking smile.
nThis was the first time Yu Lang had taken the initiative to call her in the past few months. If not for the controversy online, this brother probably would not have remembered that he had her as a sister.
nWhen she picked up the phone, Yu Wan’s tone was as affectionate as usual, even carrying a hint of surprise. “Brother? I missed you so much. You finally have time to contact me.”
n“Come to the office when you have time. I have something to discuss with you.”
nYu Lang’s tone was businesslike, and Yu Wan could not tell if he was happy or angry. She could not understand Yu Lang’s thoughts, so she did not dare to deliberately leave him hanging. After thinking for a moment, she said, “I have time this afternoon. What’s the matter, Eldest Brother?”
nYu Lang didn’t waste his breath on the phone and said straightforwardly, “You’ll know when you come to the office. Yu Heng will be there too.”
nAfter hanging up the phone, Yu Wan felt uneasy.
nShe did not know Yu Lang’s attitude towards the public opinion storm on the internet. From the phone call, Yu Lang was very calm, as if he did not take the comments on the internet that were unfavorable to the Yu family to heart. But if it was not for this crisis of public opinion, why would Yu Lang look for her?
nYu Wan arrived at the company with a nervous heart. She acutely noticed that the attitude of the employees had changed.
nYu Wan had been to the Yu family’s company in the past. In the past, she was the only little princess of the Yu family and was treated like the moon surrounded by stars. Naturally, she received the love and respect of all the employees in the company.
nHowever, when she came to the office this time, the employees looked at her with an uncomfortable probing gaze. Although they would smile warmly at Yu Wan and greet her respectfully, she could feel that they no longer respected her as much as before.
nThe attitude of the employees she met along the way intensified the uneasiness in Yu Wan’s heart. When she came to Yu Lang’s office and sat in front of Yu Lang and Yu Heng, she seemed a little guilty and lacking in confidence.
nYu Heng placed a cup of warm water in front of Yu Wan and chuckled. “Why are you acting so guilty? Do you regret speaking nonsense in the livestream?”
nYu Wan’s heart suddenly jumped, and she pretended to be frightened by Yu Heng. She shuddered and looked up at him pitifully.
n“Second Brother, I’m sorry. I really didn’t do it on purpose. I didn’t expect things to develop like this…”
nYu Heng’s attitude seemed to be a little aggressive. He leaned on the sofa and looked at Yu Wan appraisingly. “Then tell me, why did you start a livestream? Why did you say those words in the livestream?”
nA layer of mist covered Yu Wan’s eyes, and she looked like she was about to cry. She lowered her head and twisted her fingers, her tone filled with guilt and uneasiness.
n“I saw the video circulating on the internet. Everyone is discussing why Third Brother and Sister Yu Yao treat me so badly. I don’t want the netizens to misunderstand Third Brother and Sister Yu Yao. Furthermore, the netizens have found out about my identity. I’m afraid that they will use our family’s matters to defame Third Brother and the Yu family’s reputation…”
nYu Heng nodded and said mockingly, “In order to not let others defame our family, you might as well take action yourself and let the Yu family face even more serious negative public opinion, right?”
nYu Wan lowered her head and sounded like she was about to cry. “Second Brother, I’m really sorry. I didn’t do it on purpose. I don’t know why the netizens would take advantage of the situation and misunderstand my intentions. I didn’t want to defame our family at all. After what happened, I was very uneasy and felt very guilty. I wanted to do something, but I was afraid that my actions would bring about even worse results.”
nYu Heng sneered. “Luckily, you didn’t do a second livestream. Otherwise, Eldest Brother and I would probably have even more headaches.”
nDuring this short ten-minute conversation, Yu Heng had been very strong and aggressive, making Yu Wan unable to resist. She secretly felt some hatred. In the past, she had always kept a distance from Yu Heng and had never provoked him. Why was Yu Heng’s attitude towards her so bad?
nYu Wan did not believe that Yu Heng was making things difficult for her only because he really liked Yu Yao.
nThis was because Yu Heng had been a cold-blooded animal from a young age. In his eyes, there was only learning and research. Yu Wan had tried to please him countless times since she was young, but she had never received a sincere thank you. Yu Heng was cold and distant to the entire world. Yu Wan could not understand why he was so against her.
nYu Wan couldn’t answer Yu Heng’s question. She could only look at Yu Lang, who hadn’t said a word, with teary eyes and a pitiful expression on her face, seeking his help.
