After breaking off the engagement, she became the CEO's favorite

Fortunately, Ella didn't ask any further questions.

After asking that question, Ella smiled at herself.

"Hey, what a weird question I'm asking."

"Just live your life well now, don't worry about it... Hey, it's no big deal."

After saying this, he stared at Shen Xiling with a fierce look on his face.

"You kid," he indicated with both fingers, "I'm watching you."

"If you dare to do bad things...I don't care what kind of CEO you are."

Shen Xiling changed his previous politeness and teasing. He straightened up and looked serious.

"I'll treat her well."

Ella didn't seem to expect Shen Xiling to be serious.

The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.

Especially Lu Ranran, she didn't know what expression to make, and she didn't dare to look back at Shen Xiling, her heartbeat quickened for no reason.

But all these disappeared with Shen Xiling's call of "Uncle Qiang".

Ella was so furious that she almost overturned the wooden table in the living room when she stood up.

"You little brat! You don't want to learn good things, but you have to learn bad things, right?"

"I, I..." Ella paced anxiously in the living room, feeling like she was about to say something harsh.

But Ah Huang's barking interrupted him.

Ella took a few steps back in fear and collapsed to the ground.

"Fuck it, I'm leaving here!"

Lu Ranran originally wanted to keep Ella for dinner, but Ella refused because the end of the year was the peak season for hairdressing and he had to go back to make money.

Before leaving, Ella stuffed a red envelope into Lu Ranran's hand.

Lu Ranran subconsciously wanted to refuse.

But before he could finish his words, Ella interrupted him:

"You must accept it! Hold it carefully!"

"Be tougher in the future. If you are wronged, don't bear it. Find your aunt to help you vent your anger!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Ella nimbly got into her red tram and drove slowly along the road out of the village.

This was the first time Lu Ranran received a red envelope.

The thick red paper bag has rough edges and feels heavy when held in the palm of the hand, with a strong sense of presence.

Like Ella's exaggerated smoky eye.

Shen Xiling stretched out his hand and waved it in front of her eyes.

Lu Ranran was startled and came to her senses. She turned around and saw Shen Xiling's inquiring eyes.

"what happened?"

Lu Ranran waved the red envelope in her hand and grinned foolishly.

"The red envelope seems to be very thick."

The two walked side by side into the room.

Shen Xiling said:

"Uncle Qiang is a very nice person."

At this time, Lu Ranran finally had the opportunity to ask his questions.

"Why do you always call me Uncle Qiang?"

Shen Xiling opened the door and shrugged innocently.

"Aunt An Ning taught me."

Ella, whose real name is Gou Qiang, is An Ning's high school classmate.

As he said, after An Ning came to Nancheng to attend university, he simply gave up his studies and chose to come to Nancheng to work.

He did indeed treat An Ning as someone he could confide in.

That time, Shen Xiling happened to meet An Ning and Ella, also known as Gou Qiang.

Shen Xiling was just over five years old at the time and was obsessed with the TV series "Journey to the West".

It was the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, and he was excitedly turning on the TV to watch something to his heart's content.

Unexpectedly, Shen Ximing became furious about this.

"Don't watch this waste of time!"

After saying that, he immediately arranged a long list of documentaries for Shen Xiling and asked him to write a review after watching them.

"Don't waste time!" This is what Shen Ximing said most often.

But Shen Xiling was only thinking about Journey to the West.

So he decided to go find Aunt An Ning, who would definitely not stop him from watching Journey to the West.

He had just walked in and turned on the TV when Aunt An Ning suddenly walked in, supporting a man who was crying bitterly.

Take a closer look, wow.

Two streaks of black water ran across his cheeks.

Shen Xiling was startled and rushed to the two of them.

"Auntie, has he been poisoned? Do you want to call a doctor?" Shen Xiling pointed at the "black water" on his face.

An Ning laughed out loud after she figured it out, but the man cried even harder.

"Poisoned...Ah——I was poisoned by men, woooo——"

"Okay!" An Ning patted the man on the back and said to Shen Xiling, "Can you help Uncle Qiang get a glass of water?"

Shen Xiling nodded sensibly.

The man called Uncle Qiang shouted:

"My name is Ella! E-lla! My name is not Gou Qiang!"

Lu Ranran couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.

“He really stuck to his English name.”

Zhang Xiaoyuan asked curiously:

"How did he fall for the man's poison?"

Shen Xiling shook his head.

"I don't know about that."

"I was watching TV while they were chatting."

"I only heard a name occasionally, it seemed to be heyu, but I didn't know the exact word."

Lu Ranran sighed with regret.

"If Mom really left a manuscript, it's the one Ella said was based on his experience."

"Maybe we can find out why he's crying?"

Speaking of this, Zhang Xiaoyuan's expression suddenly became serious.

She patted the table, focusing everyone's attention on herself.

"What do you think?" She rolled her eyes, "Could it be that Chu Yue took away Auntie's manuscript?"

Lu Ranran was stunned.

"...It seems that it is possible..."

Zhang Xiaoyuan clapped his hands proudly, "Of course!"

"She finds thieves for her daughter every day. Maybe she is a habitual thief herself!"

"Then, what should we do?" Gu Nianzhi looked at Lu Ranran, then at Zhang Xiaoyuan.

Lu Ranran spread his hands helplessly.

"What can be done?"

"I can't just search for the enemy in the void, right?"

"What's more, I am currently cooperating with South City Media."

Zhang Xiaoyuan exclaimed "Huh?" in disbelief.

"Isn't Nancheng Media owned by Chu Yue? What are you up to?"

She glanced at Shen Xiling, then at Lu Ranran, with the words "high-end business war" written all over her eyes.

Lu Ranran briefly introduced the cooperation with Chang Hong and pointed at Shen Xiling standing beside him.

“This is the sponsor.”

Shen Xiling nodded slightly.

Zhang Xiaoyuan shook his head with a complicated expression.

"I really don't understand you guys...but!"

She slapped the table again and told Lu Ranran earnestly:

"We can't just keep fighting like this. We also need to build our own defenses."

"We can't spend a lot of time to prove ourselves when someone accuses us of plagiarism. It's so troublesome!"

"We need to let the public know our level from the beginning, so they won't be easily led by Chu Yue."

Lu Ranran tilted her head and thought about it, and found that what Zhang Xiaoyuan said made sense.

"In that case...if this drama with Zhao Feifei can be successful, it should be——"

"No, no, no!" Zhang Xiaoyuan shook his finger.

"Now is the Internet age, you have to learn how to manage your own online image."

"In this way, when public opinion arises, netizens will at least have more sources of information and will not be led astray."

Zhang Xiaoyuan took out his mobile phone and showed his social account.

She uploaded many photos and short videos she took on her account.

"have a look."

Gu Nianzhi exclaimed:

"There are 100,000 fans! I want to follow too!"
