Chapter 1214: Chapter 1214: Became the Abandoned Piece
“She treats you like that, and you still care about her?” Xu Junfeng was angry at his lack of fight.
“I’m used to it, just asking, not going to do anything about it.”
“The problem is huge, super huge.” As he spoke, Xu Junfeng’s mood became much better.
“The Ai Shang magazine she just bought has gone bankrupt. It took only two days—just two days for her to drive Fashion Passion into bankruptcy. Not only that, but she also incurred a lot of external debt and compensation liabilities. She’s delayed employees’ salaries and breached contracts—a whole string of issues. She has completely tarnished the Song family’s reputation. Did you know that? A longtime friend of the Song family kindly warned her that she had offended someone. Do you know what she told that person?”
“What did she tell them?”
Lu Jianan listened, her heart pounding, her face turning pale. She had managed Song Zishan’s interpersonal relationships for so many years, she knew the ropes without needing a reminder, a slight hint was enough for her to understand.
The apparent issues weren’t big problems, whether it was debt or contract breaches, they were minor issues that could easily be handled, not affecting much. Even if Ai Shang went bankrupt, at worst, it would just mean losing money, at most losing face.
All of these were temporary, but the real fatal issue was of a deeper significance.
It meant that Song Zishan had been abandoned by the Song family.
Otherwise, no one could shut down Ai Shang in two days without any consequences, dealing such a terrible blow to Song Zishan.
Even Zhou Hengyang couldn’t.
He had the capability to do all of this, but it definitely wouldn’t come without a cost.
And now, on the surface, the Song family had already given up on Song Zishan.
She had become expendable, the Song family no longer backing her.
Without the Song family, her temper was bad, she needed others to flatter and yield to her, in the long run, could she adapt?
The more Lu Jianan thought about it, the graver her expression became.
Xu Junfeng gave her a meaningful glance, always saying how the little princess of the Song family’s reputation was crafted by Lu Jianan alone, and it seemed that the rumors were actually true. Indeed, with Song Zishan’s behavior, he didn’t respect her, probably didn’t have a mind as sharp as Lu Jianan’s.
“She countered by asking that person who she had offended. How ridiculous is that? Who she offended, doesn’t she know inside? Yet she actually went and asked someone else. The fact that someone warned her was already meaningful enough, even risking offending others to warn her. And she just…”
Xu Junfeng stopped speaking at the end, simply shaking his head with a wry smile.
“I always knew she was foolish, but I didn’t expect her to be that foolish.”
That statement was just too low-level.
Lu Jianan also found it unbelievable, but still instinctively tried to find excuses for Song Zishan, hoping to smooth things over, “She must have been scared out of her wits at that moment!”
“Heh!” Xu Junfeng sneered.
“Has Song Zishan come back then?”
“She came back yesterday, I guess she must be at the Song family old house right now, looking for Old Master Xu Song. After all, Old Master Xu Song and grandmother Xu have always adored her, with them as her support, she’d definitely go and complain whenever things go wrong.”
“Was this affair orchestrated by Zhou Hengyang?”
“Smart.”
“So…” Lu Jianan hesitated for a moment, “Song Jinyan has given up on Song Zishan?”
“Truly astute.” Xu Junfeng smiled, showing a dimple, “I came to see you today to tell you, you can return to the public eye again. The production studio also sent me to tell you, you can go back to work. The world indeed never lacks clever people. Song Zishan is finished, no longer the little princess of the Song family who could command the winds and waves at will.”
Thus, her previous blacklisting of Lu Jianan was no longer feared by anyone, it was just accepted out of respect for her.
