My Billionaire Husband Claimed Me His Precious-Chapter 97: A Company Shrouded in Dark Smog
Chapter 97: Chapter 97: A Company Shrouded in Dark Smog
Lin Yushi was startled and hurriedly tried to explain, but Lu Lu had already stormed off in a huff.
Yu Qing looked at her suspiciously:
"Why didn’t you tell us about being a streamer?"
"I... I just didn’t get the chance."
Yu Qing wasn’t stupid. She gave her a deep look:
"You’re treating us like we’re not even friends. Suit yourself."
She went after Lu Lu. Lin Yushi stomped her foot, too embarrassed to follow and instead picked up her phone to call her cousin.
"Cousin, what should I do? Lu Lu is mad at me. She’s upset that I didn’t tell her about becoming a streamer."
Lin Han’s voice came through, calm and unhurried:
"Why are you so anxious? Lu Lu is just a little girl; she’s easy to pacify. Focus on your own matters first. You’re already an influencer. The next step is to enter the entertainment industry. I’ve already set up a meeting with a manager for you."
"Really? Thank you, cousin! I knew you cared about me the most. But what about Lu Lu?"
"Her value to you is almost nothing now. When there’s a chance, just appease her a little. As long as you don’t fall out with her publicly, it’s fine. You’re aiming to become a big star, so you don’t need to care about this."
After hearing this, Lin Yushi felt elated. Yes, she was going to be a big star. And Lu Lu? What did she matter?
Wasn’t she just relying on her impressive brother? Without her brother, she was nothing.
"Cousin, I saw Young Master Lu today. He’s so handsome. But, it seems like he has a wife. That woman is horribly ugly. How could she be a match for Young Master Lu?"
Lin Han’s tone instantly turned icy:
"Lin Yushi, Lu Qing is the man I’ve set my sights on."
Lin Yushi froze. Her cousin had her eye on him? Then she...
She wasn’t dumb. Though she was infatuated with Lu Qing, she was far behind Lin Han in terms of scheming and tactics. Besides, she still needed her cousin’s support to become a big star, so she immediately took a stand:
"I understand, cousin. Any man you fancy will definitely end up with you. That woman could never be your match."
Lin Han gave an acknowledging hum, letting her off the hook, and then hung up the phone. The man she wanted would naturally fall into her grasp!
However, Qin Miaomiao was indeed quite the nuisance. She’d have to figure out a way to get rid of her to create an opportunity for herself.
The next day, Qin Miaomiao went to Xingyao Group, but the company seemed like it had just gone through a catastrophe.
Qin Lin, driven by personal greed, had embezzled company funds and hired several relatives, plunging the entire company into chaos. After the funds dried up, salaries hadn’t been paid for nearly half a year.
To cut costs, Qin Lin shockingly planned to lay off half the staff, including some long-time employees who had significantly contributed to the company!
Wages owed to employees weren’t going to be paid either. This issue had caused a significant uproar, even drawing the attention of the media, who were outside interviewing the employees.
The employees, visibly angry, complained to the cameras:
"We just want what we are owed. Xingyao Group refuses to pay us, treats us employees so poorly, and is even deliberately trying to force us out. It’s outrageous!"
The reporter asked immediately:
"Is this the decision of the CEO? We hear that Xingyao Group’s funds have been cut off, stock prices are plummeting, and the company is on the brink of bankruptcy. Is that true?"
"It’s true! Salaries haven’t been paid for over half a year. Of course, it’s going bankrupt. A company like this should’ve gone under ages ago."
In the CEO’s office, Qin Lin was restless, unable to sit or stand still but not daring to go out. Going out now would be asking for death.
The furious employees outside probably wanted to tear him apart.
He loosened his tie and complained to his trusted aide, who was also his nephew: "What are you doing? Why haven’t you gotten rid of those people yet?"
Zhou Shu quickly replied: "Uncle, there are too many of them. I arranged for security, but we’re short-staffed. Even the guards got injured."
Qin Sishui, who had only come to the company for some excitement, unexpectedly encountered this chaos and blurted out:
"Call the police! Hurry and call the police!"
