CHAPTER 1065: CHAPTER 424: QINGQING PUSHED DOWN_3

But earlier, filming was quite hectic, and I didn’t have time for a proper makeup.

This is the last outfit, I have to give Song a little surprise!

Let him clearly realize my beauty!

Pia!(ｏ‵-′)ノ"(ノ﹏.)

Hahaha!

"Ding dong——" The phone next to her vibrated.

[Scheming Yanyan: "Qingqing, it’s almost 10 o’clock, so you’re not coming back tonight, right?"]

Xu Qing’s cheeks flushed slightly, and she replied, "It’s too late, I think I won’t go back. Besides, Tang Song booked a presidential suite, and there’s a free breakfast tomorrow, it would be wasteful not to eat."

[Scheming Yanyan: "Stay safe, good night."]

Xu Qing: "Good night."

Putting down the phone, looking at the luxurious surroundings, Xu Qing sighed.

Suddenly, she felt a bit homesick for her best friend.

They had shared a dormitory since high school.

In the first year after college graduation, they even slept in the same bed.

If given the chance, she’d love to stay in a presidential suite with her best friend, drink Chateau Lafite, and enjoy a luxurious dinner.

Yanyan had gone to meet a client again today, and must have drunk a lot tonight too.

How was she doing now?

Does she need someone to comfort and take care of her?

...

The white Jetta slowly stopped outside the North City Garden Community.

Wang Ning turned and said, "Yuyan, we’re here."

Shen Yuyan put her phone into her bag, gently opened the car door, "Meixia, Wang Ning, goodbye, drive safely."

"Goodbye."

"Um... Yuyan." Wang Ning hesitated and said, "How about I walk you upstairs? You’ve had quite a bit to drink."

"No need, I’m fine."

"Bang——" The car door closed.

Shen Yuyan got out of the car, took a deep breath of the cool early autumn air, looked up at the community she had lived in for over a year, and stepped through the gate.

The "da da" of her high heels and the "rustle" of the wind in the leaves echoed in the quiet community.

Taking the elevator directly to the 12th floor.

Shen Yuyan fished her keys out of her bag, inserting it into the lock several times before finding the right spot.

With a "click" sound, she pushed open the door to a dark room.

Feeling her way along the wall, she flipped the switch, and a dim light instantly illuminated the entire living room.

Casually kicking off her high heels, she didn’t bother with slippers, walking barefoot on the cold floor.

She slumped down on the sofa.

With her hands on her knees, she lowered her head to look at her toes.

Today, she finally secured a new client, reaching a preliminary agreement with a property management in Qiao Xi District.

However, she wasn’t particularly happy.

After completing the financing, the development of Youjie Housekeeping was far from her expectations.

She chose to start a business hoping to change her fate, to achieve financial independence through this opportunity.

Yet, the current state of Youjie Housekeeping made her feel hopeless.

The startup team originally composed of her, Zhang Tianqi, and Hou Shaoyuan was now just her.

Facing the relentless pressure from Win-win Technology and the tough expansion of client channels, she felt an indescribable solitude and despair.

What made her even more frustrated was...

The development of Mortals.

This afternoon, she met with Guo Liuyuan, and their extensive conversation left her greatly shocked.

For instance: their new drama "The Vicious Supporting Female Lead Only Wants to Work and Earn Money" surpassed 18 million yuan in user recharge within 48 hours of going live, becoming a blockbuster short drama in the second half of this year.

And for another: under the lead of Tang Song, Mortals had reached a preliminary cooperation agreement with Yannan Film and Television Base, gaining full support from the base.

Adequate cash flow, coupled with a comprehensive film and television base.

In the coming month, Mortals plans to double the number of its employees.

The short dramas being planned cover a variety of genres including romance, mystery, and time-travel.

Following this, they will collaborate deeply with short video and long video platforms.

The short film industry is experiencing rapid development, and as the market explodes, more and more capital is entering this field.

By the end of the year, Mortals could become a major player in the short film market, easily multiplying its valuation.

The stark contrast left Shen Yuyan feeling bitter.

"Ring ring ring——" Her phone rang.

Shen Yuyan snapped out of her thoughts, took out her phone from the bag.

[Win-win Technology - Ren Mingyuan]

Answered the call.

"Hello? Yuyan."

Taking a deep breath, Shen Yuyan smiled and said, "Good evening President Ren, is there something you need to instruct?"

"Haha, what instructions could I give." Ren Mingyuan replied warmly, "I mainly called to explain that I’ve been quite busy on a business trip in Shanghai recently, just now finding the time to contact you.

I only just learned about Hou Shaoyuan selling his shares, don’t worry, since Win-win Technology chose to invest, it shows that we really have high hopes for Youjie Housekeeping, our goals are aligned."

"Thank you, President Ren, I understand." Shen Yuyan maintained a gentle tone, yet her eyes were icy.

As the Vice President responsible for strategic investment, how could Ren Mingyuan not know about this matter.

It was due to the trust in this senior and his promise of support that I chose to embrace Win-win Technology and passed on Tang Song’s investment.

Now being stabbed in the back repeatedly, with the investment funds yet to be received, it’s impossible for me not to feel resentment.

I’ve never been someone who easily lets things go; holding grudges and ambition are my true colors.

If given the chance in the future, I will definitely make these people regret it for a lifetime.

"There’s also some good news." Ren Mingyuan chuckled, "Win-win Technology’s C+ round has begun, and our listing on the Growth Enterprise Market is imminent, my trip to Shanghai is for this matter."
