Flash Marriage with My Ex-Boyfriend’s Nemesis

Chapter 24.1

Ah, why did it sound like Gu Youchen was confessing to her?

Ning Qingqing inexplicably felt her face get hot, her gaze drifted down unconsciously, and she looked at Gu Youchen’s abdomen.

Gu Youchen noticed her little move, he looked down at his flat stomach, and asked, “Do you think I should have a belly?”

Ning Qingqing shook her head quickly.

Gu Youchen asked, “Qingqing, can you swim?”

Ning Qingqing didn’t know how to say, “Does enough to not drown count?”

Gu Youchen smiled, “Then I will find some time to teach you.”

Ning Qingqing imagined herself wearing a swimsuit and suddenly felt a little ambiguous, but the next second she realized why Gu Youchen brought up this topic——

He was beating around the bush and trying to hint to her that he had abs, and that he would show her when the time comes.

This man… seemed to have some moves.

Ning Qingqing thought that she seemed to have learned a little bit more about Gu Youchen.

After tidying up the kitchen, Gu Youchen gave Ning Qingqing an access card before leaving and told her the password to his study’s computer before leaving.

At the same time, Shen Zhiqian, who hadn’t slept all night, arrived at the office on the top floor of Shen Tower.

“Special Assistant Wu, let me take a look at Si Luoqing’s spokesmanship contract,” he said.

Special Assistant Wu went to the legal department to get the contract. Looking at his boss’s bloodshot eyes, he couldn’t help but ask, “Did CEO Shen not have a good rest? Do you want to adjust the schedule for this morning?”

Shen Zhiqian took the contract and didn’t answer, and Special Assistant Wu didn’t say anything else.

Looking over it line by line, Shen Zhiqian’s eyes fell on one of the lines, his pupils constricted, and then he raised his eyes, “Special Assistant Wu, ask Director Wang to come up.”

Soon, Director Wang, who had just arrived at the company, walked up quickly. Looking at Shen Zhiqian’s expression, he thought he had done something wrong.

Shen Zhiqian pointed at the contract for him, “This contract stipulates a one-week exemption from responsibility, today is the seventh day, can the group unilaterally terminate the spokesmanship?”

Director Wang was taken aback for a moment, and then he looked carefully. Shen Zhiqian was referring to an exemption clause, which belonged to a set of standard clauses, and generally, no one would question it.

And if you use this to make a fuss and directly declare the spokesmanship contract as invalid, then it is completely compliant.

so……

Director Wang looked up at Shen Zhiqian, wanting to confirm the boss’s intentions.

Shen Zhiqian didn’t give him time to think about it at all, and instructed him directly, “Go take care of it, remember to notify the PR department when it’s done and announce the matter on the official Weibo.”

Director Wang nodded quickly, “Okay CEO Shen, we will finish it first thing in the morning!”

After Director Wang left, Shen Zhiqian told Special Assistant Wu, “Let the PR department find a new spokesperson.”

The two people left, and the office suddenly fell silent.

Shen Zhiqian looked out the window, his eyes stinging from the sunlight after staying up all night.

He thought about it all night yesterday. It was impossible to say that there were no feelings between him and Ning Qingqing. She chose to be with Gu Youchen because she was angered by those around her.

And Gu Youchen was a person who was used to taking advantage of opportunities; such a good opportunity to attack him landed in front of him, so how could he not take advantage of it?

Even if they married in a flash, this marriage had no emotional basis, so it would not last long.

He couldn’t say for sure, but maybe Gu Youchen was only waiting for him to collapse, and after he suffered enough blows, he would flash divorce Ning Qingqing.

And during this time, he would clean up the people around him and wait for Ning Qingqing to come back.

At ten o’clock in the morning, Shen Group’s official Weibo unilaterally announced that the spokesmanship contract was invalid, and the Group would find another spokesperson.

In less than half an hour, the topic was trending on Weibo.

Si Luoqing’s Shen Group spokesperson deal fizzled out causing her to face the biggest embarrassment since her debut, and the bankruptcy of the Si family added more pressure…

On the hot search list, four topics were about Si Luoqing.

At this moment, Kenny was waiting in Shen Group’s legal department, and Wang Qian was in charge of receiving him today.

Even the river flows thirty years to the East, thirty years to the West1, Kenny, who used to come over arrogantly to find President Shen to sign a contract, was anxiously looking at Wang Qian, who was slowly sorting out the contract, wanting to speak but trying his best to hold it back.

Finally, he couldn’t help it, “Miss Wang, are you done yet?”

Wang Qian raised her eyes lazily, “Oh, soon.”

Kenny’s temples were throbbing. He called President Shen’s secretary today, but the other party refused to answer.

He went to the top floor again to look for Shen Zhiqian, but the CEO’s front desk didn’t let him pass at all.

He had no choice but to come to the legal department. Director Wang directly said that Wang Qian was responsible for this matter and asked him to come to Wang Qian.

He got frustrated along the way, and although he knew that the matter of Shen Group’s spokesmanship contract was probably going to fall through, he still had to fight for the last chance.

In the beginning, the Si family could hold on for a while, but who knows which competitor exposed the Si family’s problems, and now their original partners had begun to reconsider.

Additionally, the Si family’s liquidity was indeed problematic. The follow-up funds for the previous investment projects had long been stretched to their limits, and the returns from investments could not be obtained in a day or two. Now that everyone was looking for them, they couldn’t solve the problem at all.

If they also lost Si Luoqing’s spokesmanship, it would inevitably become a market signal.

Then, all the brands she currently represented might question her ability. If these contracts expire, it might be difficult to renew the contracts. If they had not expired, the terms of these contracts stated that if there was negative news about the artist, the brand could unilaterally terminate their cooperation.

Getting negative news was too easy for artists, the market was like a signal flare, once the wind changed, would Si Luoqing’s opponents all not make a move?

Finally, Wang Qian finished sorting out the contract in her hand, and then she looked at Kenny, “Why are you looking for me?”

Kenny suppressed his anger, “Director Wang said just now that you’re now in charge of Si Luoqing’s spokesmanship. I want to ask what we have done wrong. Why does Shen Group want to unilaterally terminate the contract?”

After listening, Wang Qian pretended to look for the file folder, and muttered to herself, “The contracts organized by Qingqing are here, and Si Luoqing’s… oh, I found it.”

When Kenny heard Ning Qingqing’s name, his eyebrows twitched, and he had a bad feeling—could it be that Shen Group did this for Ning Qingqing?
