Huayu: Rising from Tencent

Chapter 94 Ju Jingyi: I think I'm doomed.

"How did this idiot know I'm handsome?"

Although Shen Ci said this, he secretly cursed Principal Wang as a fool who was looking for trouble.

Lin Xin's anxious expression vanished instantly, and she couldn't help but chuckle softly, but she quickly suppressed her smile.

"Mr. Shen, should we reply to him?"

"Reply? Why would I need to reply?"

Shen Ci glanced at Lin Xin with disdain and said, "Are you going to become a clown and become a laughingstock for netizens?"

Lin Xin hesitated for a moment, then tried to explain: "But he openly named me on Weibo—"

Before he could finish speaking, Shen Ci interrupted him: "He likes that feeling of being the center of attention, but I'm different."

Shen Ci dislikes being a public figure, because if she does, she'll easily be recognized when she goes out.

If I go out with Zhang Ruonan, Xia Jie, or Nazha and get photographed, I'll be in big trouble.

Being exposed is a minor issue; the real concern is that if one's identity is revealed because of these matters, it could affect the company's stock price.

He was puzzled. What on earth had Principal Wang gone mad? He couldn't have posted such a Weibo post for no reason.

The reason Principal Wang posted this Weibo post is very simple: it all started because of Ju Jingyi.

Ever since Ju Jingyi mentioned to Principal Wang whether she knew Shen Ci, she has brought him up every time Principal Wang talks to her.

Time and time again, Principal Wang sent Ju Jingyi those fawning, sycophantic messages today.

And she mentioned Shen Ci once again.

"Stop contacting me, it's so annoying. I already have someone I like, and Mr. Shen is much more handsome than you."

Ju Jingyi's post this time was very bold; she wanted to get rid of Principal Wang once and for all and stop bothering her.

Upon seeing these words, Principal Wang broke down completely and couldn't hold back any longer, so he posted this Weibo message.

The title "son of the richest man" is very popular right now. When Principal Wang posted a Weibo, the number of comments instantly exceeded a thousand.

Honey, who made you angry?!

Is Principal Wang going head-to-head with Pony Ma?

Honey, squeeze me so hard it hurts!!

The comments were varied, and netizens were simply there to watch the spectacle.

As Ju Jingyi looked at Principal Wang's Weibo and scrolled through the comments, a sense of fear welled up inside her.

She felt that this matter had gotten a bit out of hand. What if that President Shen came knocking on her door?

Thinking about it this way, Ju Jingyi was filled with deep regret.

She cursed Principal Wang and his entire family in her mind, thinking to herself, "Damn it, what an idiot!"

At this time, after saying goodbye to Lin Xin in Shenzhen, Shen Ci returned to Xiao Ma's house.

Little Ma's family lives in a villa area halfway up the mountain. The "Leading the Way" family also lives in this community.

"You silly child, you never come back to see me all year round."

As soon as they arrived home, Madam Ma pulled Shen Ci aside and asked him all sorts of questions with concern. Before she could finish, she couldn't help but start complaining.

Shen Ci was always sweet-talking, and all sorts of words came out of his mouth like a machine gun, making Madam Ma's face beam with joy.

At home, Shen Ci's younger cousin, Ma Manlin, also took leave from her school abroad to come home for the Chinese New Year.

The two cousins ​​rarely see each other throughout the year, but their relationship is exceptionally close.

Mrs. Ma chatted with Shen Ci for a while before turning to the kitchen to oversee the chef's preparation of the New Year's Eve dinner.

"Brother!!" Ma Manlin sidled up to Shen Ci, her face full of curiosity. "How did you end up clashing with Principal Wang?"

Shen Ci shook his head helplessly and said, "I don't know him at all. This guy must be out of his mind."

Ma Manlin pleaded, "Tell me, brother, I promise I won't tell anyone. Is it because of some woman?"

"I'm not lying to you," Shen Ci looked at his little cousin, reached out and tapped her on the head, "Don't think about those things."

"Huh?" Ma Manlin didn't believe it at all. She just thought her cousin was too serious and not fun at all.

Just then, Shen Ci's phone rang.

He took it out and saw that it was Zhang Ruonan calling.

Ma Manlin stood on tiptoe, craning her neck to look at the caller ID, only to be tapped on the head by Shen Ci.

Ever since Principal Wang posted that Weibo post —

After Shen Ci got off the plane, his phone was flooded with messages from Nazha, Zhang Ruonan, Reba, and others.

"Honey, is the person Principal Wang mentioned on Weibo you?"

"Brother, that—"

"Mr. Shen, on Weibo—"

Seeing these messages, Shen Ci had a terrible headache, so he simply sent a group message: "It's nothing, don't overthink it."

He initially just thought Principal Wang was an idiot, but now he wanted to post a Weibo and give this idiot a good scolding.

"Brother, are you really alright?"

Zhang Ruonan was worried that something might have happened to President Shen. Even after seeing his message, she was still uneasy and couldn't help but make a phone call.

"What could possibly be wrong? Just focus on filming," Shen Ci said, then changed the subject, "Is the crew on holiday yet?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Ruonan replied, "It's a holiday. Aunt Wang even took me and Churan shopping today."

"Then you should get some rest. I just got home, and my family is all here," Shen Ci said.

"Mmm," Zhang Ruonan replied obediently, "Brother, spend good time with your family."

Shen Ci replied, "Okay, I'll hang up now."

After Shen Ci finished speaking, Zhang Ruonan on the other end of the phone pouted and made two "mua" sounds at the screen.

Zhang Ruonan was a little disappointed that she didn't get the answer to her question, and at the same time she was curious as to why Principal Wang would clash with her brother.

Shen Ci put away his phone and was about to go inside when he answered the call. He was in the garden outside the villa.

He had just taken a step when he froze—

He didn't know when Little Ma had stood next to him, looking at him with a smile.

"Uncle—" Shen Ci quickly greeted him.

Ma pushed up his glasses and asked four questions in a row: "Did you just get back? Was that your girlfriend on the phone? Is Principal Wang Wang Jianlin's son? Do you have a conflict with him?"

Upon hearing the series of questions, Shen Ci's mind raced. After weighing the options in his mind, he gave a half-truth and a half-lie answer.

"The person who just called wasn't my girlfriend, just a friend I've been talking to a lot lately."

"Just as I was flying here, Principal Wang posted a Weibo post, roughly asking who Mr. Shen from Tencent Video was."

As he spoke, Shen Ci pulled up Weibo and showed Xiao Ma the post that Principal Wang had made.

Little Ma glanced at it and asked, "Did you have a fight?"

"No, Uncle," Shen Ci quickly shook his head, "I've never even met him."

Brother Ma believed Shen Ci's words without a doubt. His nephew had studied abroad since childhood and was honest and upright.

After joining Tencent Video last year, I worked diligently and successfully promoted two outstanding projects.

Compared to Principal Wang, Pony Ma couldn't help but feel that he had won against Wang Jianlin.

"I'll make a call over there, please wait a moment."

Brother Ma gave a brief instruction, then scrolled through his phone's contacts and quickly found a contact, which he then dialed.

Shen Ci stood aside, watching his uncle's actions, and roughly guessed who he wanted to contact.

The call was quickly answered, and Little Ma said, "Mr. Wang, it's been a long time since we last talked. I have a nephew—"

The call lasted less than a minute before it ended.

Little Ma hung up the phone, patted Shen Ci on the shoulder, and said, "Go inside, come with me to a party tonight."

"Okay, Uncle," Shen Ci said.

On the other side, after receiving a call from Little Ma, Wang Jianlin's face darkened, and he immediately called his son.

"Did you post on Weibo? Do you know Pony Ma's nephew?"

"I don't recognize you."

"Then why did you post that on Weibo? Delete it immediately! It's so ridiculous, what are you doing all day long!"

When Wang Jianlin heard his son say he didn't know Shen Ci, he couldn't help but scold him.

Principal Wang never expected that the General Manager Shen mentioned by Ju Jingyi would have such a background.

Principal Wang wasn't entirely brainless; he immediately decided to delete the Weibo post.

After deleting it, he was still a little annoyed and couldn't help but want to post a cryptic comment, like "Can't afford to mess with me now" —

He had already typed all the words, but just as he was about to send them, Principal Wang deleted them all.

"Forget it," he thought, "let Ju Jingyi vent her anger."

Principal Wang quickly found Ju Jingyi's most recent Weibo post, forwarded it directly, and sarcastically commented: "@Ju Jingyi, your attempt to be cute is too contrived, it's disgusting to watch. Go get plastic surgery, stop being so offensive."

This series of actions quickly made it back to the top of the trending searches within half an hour, and netizens started gossiping online again.

[Haha, Principal Wang has started his online critique of female celebrities again.]

[Where's your previous Weibo post? Why was it suddenly deleted? What happened? Did you mess with someone and get scared??]

[Hilarious! Is there anyone Principal Wang can't afford to offend?]

[You know what, this new message might just be a cover-up for the previous one, a way to divert everyone's attention.]

The comments were varied and diverse, while Ju Jingyi deleted the Weibo post that Principal Wang had retweeted.

She was already panicking when she saw that Principal Wang's previous Weibo post had suddenly disappeared.

It would have been better if they hadn't deleted it. Deleting it only makes people think the situation is more serious. Does this mean that even Principal Wang can't afford to offend them?

Ju Jingyi felt as if everything went completely black.

Shen Ci also learned that his Weibo post had been deleted; it was Nazha who reminded him.

Naza has been following the news ever since Principal Wang posted on Weibo.

She wasn't worried that her husband would be outdone by Principal Wang; she was just curious why Principal Wang would post on Weibo.

Principal Wang deleted his Weibo post, and then immediately posted another one criticizing Ju Jingyi. This series of actions made Nazha feel very strange.

She scrolled through the comments from netizens, wondering to herself, could it all be because of Ju Jingyi?

Ju Jingyi performed at Tencent Video's annual meeting, which made Nazha increasingly frightened.

She was unwilling to let her precious Shen Ci be taken away by someone else, so she immediately called Shen Ci.

"Honey, Principal Wang deleted his Weibo post and then posted a new one, criticizing Ju Jingyi."

Naza's voice carried a hint of urgency, followed by a cautious question: "Honey, I have a question for you, please don't get angry, okay? Are you and that Ju Jingyi really that close?!"

Whether they were familiar or not, Shen Ci naturally knew the answer in his heart!

"What do you mean, 'familiar'? We only met once at the company's annual meeting. Don't make wild guesses, and ignore all that nonsense on Weibo."

Hearing Shen Ci's tone turn cold, Na Zha felt a pang of panic.

She quickly changed the subject, talking about how filming would wrap up the day after tomorrow and that she would be participating in shows like "Go Fighting!"

After hanging up the phone, Nazha felt extremely wronged.

"I am the Crown Princess, the Crown Princess, the Crown Princess!!"

She kept muttering to herself, and then looked up information about Ju Jingyi online.

As he watched, Naza couldn't help but laugh out loud, and his mood instantly improved a lot.

This Ju Jingyi is not tall, and she has bangs, giving her a cute appearance.

She's totally not my husband's type!
