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

Lu Zhai.

Chu Yue was humming a little tune, holding a pair of handy little scissors in her hand.

Flower arranging is a hobby she has recently developed.

Chu Yue discovered that as long as it was adjusted and designed consciously.

No matter how small the flower is, it can bloom into the most beautiful moment.

And those flowers that are not dazzling and eye-catching in the first place can be transformed into a beautiful foil under her skillful arrangement.

Chu Yue understood it very well.

In terms of screenwriting talent, Lu Keke cannot compare to Lu Ranran.

But this is not absolute.

The final victory or defeat depends on who controls the game.

Now, she is the manipulator.

She lets whoever she wants win.

As for Lu Ranran...

Chu Yue had no idea what she was thinking about, and accidentally got pricked by the sharpened flower stem.

Crystal clear blood beads slowly seeped out.

"Humph......"

She wiped off the blood and threw the flower into the trash can beside her.

Everything seemed as if nothing had ever happened, everything was quiet and peaceful.

At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps disrupted the tranquility.

Chu Yue knew who was coming without looking back.

"Mom, something bad has happened!"

"Lu Keke, I've told you so many times."

Chu Yue put down the scissors and sighed softly.

"Don't be so impatient. You don't act like a young lady at all. What's wrong?"

Turning around, Chu Yue found that Lu Keke's face was pale, her eyes were wide open in fear, and her legs were shaking violently.

Lu Keke jogged over.

Although the distance was not far, her chest heaved violently and her forehead was covered with sweat.

"Mom..." Lu Keke's voice was shaking terribly, "Uncle Xiang, Uncle Xiang..."

"What's up with him?"

Chu Yue pulled Lu Keke to her side and snatched her phone.

The moment she saw the trending search, Chu Yue subconsciously clutched her phone.

"Surrogacy scandal involving senior executives of South City Media".

Lu Keke clung to Chu Yue's arm tightly like a little chick drenched by the rain.

"Mom, why would Uncle Xiang be a surrogate mother? Hasn't he always been very kind?"

"Uncle Xiang has been arrested. Do you think he will betray us?"

"If everyone knew that Lu Ranran was slandered by us——"

"What are you talking about!" Chu Yue shouted at Lu Keke.

"Xiang Qian did this himself. It has nothing to do with us."

Chu Yue grabbed Lu Keke's shoulders, her red nails seeming to dig into her flesh.

"Remember, Xiang Qian did this himself."

"Mom..." Chu Yue's gaze made Lu Keke a little scared.

"Remember!"

Lu Keke was frightened and finally nodded slightly.

All of this is what Xiang Qian deserves after he realized it himself.

But Chu Yue didn't say a word about it.

As the actual controller of Nancheng Media.

In order to save public opinion, she could just throw Xiang Qian out as a discarded chess piece.

Chu Yue is confident.

All of this will not affect Lu Keke's first big production.

However, is it really not?

No one can truly control public opinion.

At most, it's just a matter of going with the flow.

After Lu Ranran was discharged from the hospital, she came to Wu Zhi's screenwriter studio under the strong "accompaniment" of Shen Xiling.

She is still on contract as an employee.

Today, she came to submit her resignation.

Lu Ranran originally wanted to ask Zhang Xiaoyuan if he had time.

I don’t know how this matter reached Shen Xiling’s ears.

This forced Lu Ranran to comfort Shen Xiling's "injured" heart.

However, we cannot blame Zhang Xiaoyuan for "leaking the secret."

Her original intention was that one more person would give her more courage, so she also called Gu Nianzhi.

Who knew that Gu Nianzhi accidentally "shared the same brain" with her and called Shen Xiling to give her courage.

Now, they don’t have to come anymore.

Only Shen Xiling, the stern and cold-faced devil, was sitting on one side.

Wu Zhidu was scared half to death.

If Zheng Keli hadn't been sitting next to him, he would have hidden under the table in the next second.

Seeing Wu Zhi again, Lu Ranran just felt a little sad.

In order to get Lu Ranran to join, Wu Zhi tried his best to persuade her.

It even has a bit of a "licking" meaning.

Who could have imagined it would turn out like this?

Lu Ranran got straight to the point:

"I came here today for only two things."

"First, give me a certificate of resignation. I am no longer an employee you employ."

"The copyright of all my creations during my employment belongs to me."

"Second, please publicly clarify that I did not plagiarize."

When talking about the first thing, Wu Zhi's expression was still calm.

But when it came to the second thing, Wu Zhi was obviously much more embarrassed.

"Ran Ran, look, to clarify this matter, should we——"

"Editor Wu." Lu Ranran interrupted Wu Zhi, "I respect your position in the screenwriting industry, so I call you Editor Wu."

"But I'm not here to discuss this with you right now."

"If you stand up now, at least you can save your face."

"But if I sue directly, whether you can keep your studio is still a question, right?"

I don’t know if it’s because I’ve been with Shen Xiling for too long.

Lu Ranran is becoming more and more accustomed to this kind of behavior of taking advantage of the power of others.

Wu Zhi had obviously begun to waver.

He looked at Zheng Keli, and the two of them had a silent communication.

Soon, Wu Zhi replied:

"Ran Ran, it's not that I don't want to help you."

“Whether I stand up or not, that’s an easy fix.”

"I don't want so many of my subordinates to be affected because of me."

What Wu Zhi meant was that they were all ordinary people, unlike Lu Ranran who had a background.

Lu Ranran can survive without Nancheng Media, but what about ordinary people like them?

At this time, Shen Xiling, who had been silent for a long time, spoke.

"Editor Wu, I understand your concerns."

"But you don't need to worry."

"Next, Shen's Construction will be the largest investor behind Nancheng Media."

With Shen Xiling's guarantee.

This conversation is more than just a question of right and wrong.

It's an exchange of interests.

When she was still in the hospital, Lu Ranran was extremely troubled by the issue of "plagiarism".

Public opinion has developed to this stage.

Lu Ranran only needs to lay the facts on the table to deal a heavy blow to all the perpetrators.

But Wu Zhi's screenwriting studio is not just about Wu Zhi.

There are also Xu Yuan, Qin Qin, Yan Xiaoli, Wang Ruohan......

It was because Lu Ranran had worked with them that she could empathize with their sadness and hopes.

She can find ways to hold Xiang Qian and Wu Zhi accountable.

Wu Zhi’s failure is a small matter, but what about them who have lost their protection from now on?

Won’t they become the next Lu Ranran?

Lu Ranran was extremely depressed and could only tell Shen Xiling all these words.

Maybe he knows the answer?

Or like in the TV series, he boasts that he can buy everyone's script.

But Shen Xiling didn't.

"You don't have to worry about it," he said.

"Because Shen's will become the largest investor in Nancheng Media."
