After Divorce, I Inherited the Game's Fortune

Everyone at the table inevitably underwent a shift in mindset; after all, this was a CEO with a net worth of tens of billions. A casual remark from him could change one's fate.

Take Liu Yuanyuan, for example, who was currently job hunting. For Yang Hao, the CEO of both Tianmei Media and Jiangcheng Newspaper Group, arranging a respectable job for her would be all too easy.

At that moment, Yang Hao's phone suddenly chimed.

He glanced at it subconsciously and saw a message from Xiong Xiaoyan: Boss, I have a work report I'd like to share with you.

Yang Hao's brows lifted quizzically. Report work at this time??

Ah!

Just three minutes ago, Xiong Xiaoyan was the center of attention as the goddess of the banquet hall, but now she played this contrasting card, knowing just how to thrill a man.

It was like when the class beauty walked into the room and received everyone's gaze, only to turn around and send you a message: Shall we meet at the hotel nearby to study during lunch break?

This kind of contrast gave a great sense of accomplishment!

Now that identities were revealed, it was foreseeable that flattery and sycophancy would ensue from everyone.

So, finding an excuse to slip away wasn't a bad choice either.

"Ou, Ruohan, I need to discuss some work. I'll be back in a bit!"

Yang Hao called out and headed straight for the restroom next to the banquet hall.

Upon his departure, the scene exploded into buzz.

"Ruohan, you're amazing! You managed to snag a CEO worth tens of billions without a peep."

Chen Yali exclaimed in admiration.

"Ruohan has always been clever since she was little, I've always said she would make something of herself!" Chen Haiying praised with a smile.

"Ruohan, just forget what I said earlier. I thought you'd been duped!"

"I limited myself, please look after me in the future," Wang Shuai said with an embarrassed grin, apologizing.

Surrounded by a group of flatterers, Chen Ruohan felt naturally proud inside. She had never soared so high in front of her relatives as she did today, and it wasn't just the relatives at her table. Those from the nearby tables also came over to greet her and make their presence known, with some trying to connect with Chen Haiou and others striking up a conversation directly with Chen Ruohan.

This bunch of relatives truly mastered the art of "going with the wind" to the fullest!

The most awkward ones there were the Liu father and daughter. They had both had a direct conflict with Yang Hao prior, so now, with everyone currying favor with the mother-daughter duo of Chen Haiou and Chen Ruohan, the Lius found themselves on pins and needles.

Liu Changhe smoked sullenly with the free cigarettes laid on the table, while Liu Yuanyuan fiddled with her phone to mask the awkwardness of the situation.

"Yuanyuan, are you out of your mind?"

"Didn't you interview at Jiangcheng Newspaper Group a while ago? Hurry and talk to Ruohan, ask her to mention it to Mr. Yang. Then getting into Jiangcheng Newspaper Group will be a matter of minutes!"

Chen Haiying nudged her daughter with her elbow and whispered, unaware of her daughter's altercation with Yang Hao, as she had been busy at the hotel entrance dealing with wedding receptions.

"Mom, there's something you don't know yet."

Liu Yuanyuan whispered: "Dad and Mr. Yang had a conflict, and I... I chimed in with a few words..."

Liu Yuanyuan briefly described what had happened.

Upon hearing this, Chen Haiying was dumbfounded, shooting a fierce glance at Liu Changhe: "All you know is how to smoke, you might as well smoke yourself to death!"

"What about Haiou? Didn't you see her this morning?"

"Then you pull something like this!!"

At that moment, Chen Haiou was surrounded by several relatives, and the banquet hall was noisy, so when Chen Haiying scolded Liu Changhe, others couldn't hear clearly.

Liu Changhe, knowing he was at fault, kept smoking silently without responding. He had dealt with similar situations at home countless times and knew how to handle his wife.

"Yuanyuan, do you still want to work at Jiangcheng Newspaper Group?"

Chen Haiying turned to ask her daughter.

"Yes, of course I do," Liu Yuanyuan said softly.

"If you do, apologize to Mr. Yang when he comes back. A great CEO like him won't take it personally," Chen Haiying advised.

"Hm."

Liu Yuanyuan nodded in resignation, although the thought of apologizing made her uneasy. However, when weighed against the prospect of a job, the latter was clearly more critical.

Seeing her daughter's acquiescence, Chen Haiying stood up and went over to her niece, Chen Ruohan. She said cheerfully, "Ruohan, you really have a good eye, much better than your sister Yuanyuan!"

"With a man like Mr. Yang, you've got to strike while the iron is hot!"

"Just sit back and enjoy your future good fortune!"

Chen Haiying started by offering praise, then shifted the conversation with an ulterior motive, "Ruohan, now that your days are better, you mustn't forget about your Yuanyuan," she said.

"Your Yuanyuan has been looking for a job recently, she even attended an interview at Jiangcheng Newspaper Group. Could you maybe speak to Mr. Yang and see if your Yuanyuan could work there?"

The Little White Flower, Chen Ruohan, who had seen the warmth and coldness of human relationships from a young age, was not easily fooled. She knew all too well what her aunt's family was like. She smiled and said, "Auntie, rest assured, I will definitely pass on the message."

"However, Uncle and Yuanyuan just had an unpleasant encounter with our Mr. Yang, so..."

Before Chen Ruohan could finish speaking, Chen Haiying took over the conversation, "Ruohan, don't worry, I will have them apologize to Mr. Yang later!"

"Besides, it wasn't really a big issue. Mr. Yang is generous and won't hold it against them."

Chen Ruohan nodded, "Anyway, I can't make the decision on this matter; it all depends on Mr. Yang's attitude."

"You just need to mention it, Mr. Yang is so good to you. He bought you a car worth tens of millions without hesitation, he won't refuse this small request."

Chen Haiying, the old slicker, was playing a manipulative game with her.

I've flattered you to the sky; you wouldn't refuse to help, would you?

Little White Flower Chen Ruohan smiled and nodded. She was aware of such manipulative tactics. In fact, she had already decided not to help from the start because she knew that even if she did, her aunt's family wouldn't appreciate it; they might even badmouth her behind her back, saying she was clinging to a rich man!

The banquet hall was equipped with two restrooms for makeup and changing clothes.

At this point, Wang Xiaogang and Zheng Qianqian had gotten their wish to take a photo with Xiong Xiaoyan and received her autograph.

After a brief discussion about the wedding procedures, the two sensibly proceeded to the other restroom to change and touch up their makeup in preparation for the ceremony.

Not long after they left, Yang Hao entered the restroom where Xiong Xiaoyan was.

"If you have any work-related matters to report, just say it!"

Yang Hao casually sat down on the sofa, his eyes playfully observing this feisty little creature.

"Shasha, Yu, you two go out first."

Xiong Xiaoyan signaled with her eyes to the two assistants.

The assistants smartly exited the room and stood guard at the door.

"Boss, when I was filming, I thought about you every day, and you didn't reply to my Weixin messages," Xiong Xiaoyan said with a look of wistful complaint, cozied up beside Yang Hao and then extended her fair arm to hook around his neck.

"Thought about what?"

Yang Hao's gaze involuntarily fell on her faintly visible curves.

"Thought about this!"

Xiong Xiaoyan's hand slid down from Yang Hao's neck and adeptly unbuckled his belt with one hand, her movements were extremely skillful.

As an actress who had been fighting in the entertainment industry for many years, being articulate and deft were merely basic skills.

Yang Hao still remembered the deep impression she left on him last time she reported to work. In terms of verbal expression, she was even better than Meng Chacha and the attractive mature woman Wang Xueru, on par with the surgically enhanced beauty Ye Wei!

That's what you call professionalism!

In a way, Xiong Xiaoyan and Ye Wei could be considered half-colleagues, as this skill was a way to earn their keep for both of them.

As for women with such high attrition rates, our Mr. Yang was only willing to give them a chance to step through the door!

However, this woman affectionately known as "big bear" by the fans, the Otaku's Goddess, had another way that was also endorsed by Yang Hao. After all, different experiences bring different pleasures!

Inside the banquet hall.

As the ceremony time approached, all the relatives who had come to network with Chen Haiou and Chen Ruohan had returned to their seats.

Chen Ruohan looked down at the time on her phone; her uncle Yang had been gone for over half an hour. The image of the enchanting Xiong Xiaoyan inevitably came to mind.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

She believed she was not less attractive than the other woman, but she had the halo of a star and the "big bear" that fans talked about excitedly. Plus, that woman had a sultry air about her.

How could any normal man resist?

She was a bit worried that her Uncle Yang might have been bewitched by that seductive woman!

"Yang said he was going to talk about work, how come he's not back yet?" Chen Haiou asked softly.

But her question was somewhat rhetorical, having been in the Cultural Work Troupe for so many years, she had witnessed and heard of too many scandals.

Take their current troupe leader, for example. Before recording some evening shows, he often visited female performers after they had put on their costumes and finished their makeup to "talk about work."

The glamorous stage costumes were to men almost as QQ sleepwear is, providing a sort of buff!

The current situation was that shortly after Xiong Xiaoyan's arrival, Yang Hao left under the pretext of discussing work.

This was a script all too familiar to Chen Haiou.

By asking this question, she was not only hinting at her daughter but also trying to instill a sense of urgency in her.

Fear of loss would make one find ways to hold on to the other person, and if one person's effort isn't enough, then it's time to seek external help.

When the time came for Chen Haiou to step in as a mother, Chen Ruohan would be more willing to accept her help.

A mother helping her daughter—that's reasonable, isn't it?
