Chapter 30 -30: Will You Take the Responsibility?

Assistant Wen continued, “The news about Ms. Liang Shiyu being about to endorse a brand under the Xu Family has been spread for a while, but last night at the awards ceremony, Ms. Liang told reporters that the Xu Family had already refused to work with her.”

“Not only that, someone leaked information privately, saying that Ms. Liang’s contract was terminated because she had offended you.”

“Now, Ms. Liang’s fans are denouncing our company on our company’s Weibo page, demanding that our side provide a reasonable explanation.”

“Otherwise, they’ll boycott everything from our company in the future.”

After hearing the whole story, Xu Jinzhi couldn’t help but want to laugh. She did have some responsibility in the matter, but there was no contract between Liang Shiyu and the Xu Family, right?

Wasn’t it just that Liang Shiyu approached them seeking cooperation?

They were at a negotiation phase where both parties had the right to choose.

In her past life, she didn’t have contact with Liang Shiyu so quickly. Although it was because of Liang Shiyu that she had called off her engagement, she only really interacted with Liang Shiyu after Liang Shiyu was married to Xie Linchuan.

But in her past life, it was precisely because Liang Shiyu managed to marry Xie Linchuan that she completely withdrew from the entertainment circle, and since she was pregnant at that time, the Xie Family had no choice but to accept her.

So, when she dealt with Liang Shiyu, Liang Shiyu didn’t have the bonus of fan attacks.

In this life, she had dealt with Liang Shiyu so early on, and it was only now that she realized Liang Shiyu could be such a clown.

It wasn’t just Liang Shiyu; her fans were equally clownish. The Xu Group was a veteran enterprise involved in everything.

Boycotting the Xu Group wasn’t going to be so easy.

To put it bluntly, if the Xu Group could be taken down that easily, then she and her father might as well retire early.

“So what’s the plan for resolving this issue?” Xu Jinzhi was quite curious about how they would handle it.

“We haven’t dealt with it yet, but Ms. Liang has already taken the initiative to call CEO Zhuang to apologize, claiming she doesn’t know why her fans would say such things,” Assistant Wen reported truthfully.

Xu Jinzhi raised an eyebrow slightly, “She apologized that easily?”

Assistant Wen remained silent, confirming it, but then added, “It’s just for show.”

Xu Jinzhi didn’t say anything, falling silent for a while before asking, “Did CEO Zhuang record it?”

Assistant Wen was silent again, obviously indicating that Zhuang Jingxiang did record it. They were all veterans in the workplace; everyone knew to keep an ace up their sleeve.

Xu Jinzhi couldn’t help but laugh again, “They’re denouncing us on the official Weibo, right? How about releasing the recording there?”

Assistant Wen didn’t respond to how about, but immediately took out her phone and called Zhuang Jingxiang to handle it, as these matters were his expertise.

“Does Mr. Xu have anything else?” Assistant Wen asked.

“I’m fine.” Xu Jinzhi barely suppressed her laughter and shook her head.

“Then I’ll go and get busy,” said Assistant Wen, turning to leave.

Xu Jinzhi called out from behind, “Let me know if there’s any progress!”

Assistant Wen didn’t say anything, but would certainly notify Xu Jinzhi as soon as there was any development.

However, Xu Jinzhi didn’t wait for Assistant Wen’s follow-up; instead, she received a call from Xie Linchuan first.

On the phone, Xie Linchuan sounded very regretful as he said, “Mr. Xu, I am very sorry about this incident. I’d like to apologize on behalf of Shiyu and hope you can forgive her this time.”

“You apologize?” Xu Jinzhi countered, “What gives you the right to apologize for Liang Shiyu?”

“Moreover, even if you apologize!” Xu Jinzhi emphasized the last word “apologize,” pausing for a few seconds before continuing: “On what grounds should I forgive?”

“Liang Shiyu has incited her followers to talk nonsense under our official Weibo, do you realize how much that has affected the Xu Family?”

“Or are you saying that Mr. Xie is willing to bear all the consequences of Liang Shiyu’s actions? If Mr. Xie is willing to take responsibility, of course, I can be accommodating.”

“I’d hate for Mr. Xie to be unwilling to offer anything yet expect me to be magnanimous—that would not sit well.”

Xu Jinzhi seemed to speak casually, but her words left Xie Linchuan’s face beet red with embarrassment.

After all, he had indeed thought that by calling personally to apologize, Xu Jinzhi would give him the courtesy, but he never expected Xu Jinzhi to be so unyielding.

What about forgiveness? Without any concrete actions, Xu Jinzhi didn’t care for just words.

On the phone, Xie Linchuan was silent for a good while, as if pondering deeply, before finally saying in a deep voice, “For the island construction project, Xie Group will concede two percent of the profits!”

Upon hearing this, Xu Jinzhi’s interest was immediately piqued—it was not a small number!

Suppressing the excitement in her heart, Xu Jinzhi asked Xie Linchuan, “Can you make this decision?”

True, Xie Linchuan was the heir to the Xie Group, but Xie Suian was still in charge. Ultimately, the decision-maker was Xie Suian, not Lin Chuan!

“I can!” Xie Linchuan said through gritted teeth.

“Okay,” Xu Jinzhi agreed without hesitation.

Without waiting for Xie Linchuan to add anything, Xu Jinzhi continued, “In consideration of the fact that you are Yanchuan’s big brother, I’ll trust you for now. I’ve recorded this conversation. We’ll discuss the contract details later.”

There were a few seconds of silence on the phone, then Xie Linchuan replied heavily, “All right.”

After the call ended, Xu Jinzhi couldn’t hide her elation, laughing outright in her office, and while still laughing, she didn’t forget to phone CEO Zhuang.

CEO Zhuang was quick to act; as soon as Xu Jinzhi made the call, everything was promptly arranged.

Xu Zhen hadn’t come down to talk to Xu Jinzhi about the matter but still paid close attention and knew that CEO Zhuang had removed the recording from Weibo. He immediately inquired about the details.

Then he quickly called Xu Jinzhi, asking her what had transpired.

After Xu Jinzhi explained the deal she’d made with Xie Linchuan, Xu Zhen burst into exaggerated laughter, clearly very pleased with her handling of the situation!

He had originally thought that since his daughter liked Xie Yanchuan so much, the Xu Family would surely be tied to the Xie Family in the future, but now it seemed his daughter was quite clear-headed!

At this moment, Xu Zhen was already looking forward to the next contract signing with Xie Suian, curious to see what expression he would wear.

Because of this incident, Xu Jinzhi’s mood was excellent all morning, and she kept sending messages to Song You about what had happened on her end.

It wasn’t until she received a call from Xie Yanchuan at lunchtime that Xu Jinzhi remembered him.

When she found out why Xie Yanchuan was calling, Xu Jinzhi deliberately tested his attitude on the phone, “So, do you think I was being unreasonable?”
