1352 Allow to be Wilful
During this period of time, the factions led by Nancheng University and Qing University had been arguing about whether there was a missing dynasty.
Xia Wanyuan’s thesis instantly pushed the argument between the two sides to the peak.
Although the ancient tombs of Longqi Mountain had already appeared, there were still some people who maintained a suspicious attitude.
[ Money makes the world go round. Xia Wanyuan is so rich. Perhaps she built a fake ancient tomb to make herself famous. What can’t she do with money? ]!!
[ The person in front, you’re more or less suffering from cerebral palsy. What more popularity does Xia Wanyuan need??? When she stands there, even blinking is a huge popularity. ]
[But don’t you think it’s very unreliable? That’s an entire dynasty. How can it be forgotten so easily?]
The controversy on the Internet continued, and the excavation of the ancient tomb on Longqi Mountain continued.
Knowing that the public was quite concerned about this ancient tomb excavation, the officials specially opened a media live-stream channel so that the netizens could participate in this emergency excavation.
The media reporters gradually entered the ancient tomb along the special passageway. When they saw the large pile of gold, silver, and jewelry in the main room, everyone’s eyes widened.
The various decorations in the tomb had the obvious style of ancient China, but they also had other novel styles.
At a glance, it was as if there was no end to the gold and jewelry. They quietly emitted the aura of time. Some of them quickly oxidized and disappeared the moment they were exposed to the air, and they were no longer as stunning as before.
As the archeologists worked deeper, the complete scene of the tomb gradually appeared in front of everyone.
The ancient tomb here had been sealed for more than a thousand years and had a very historical foundation under the camera. Even though the audience did not understand the professional identification at all, the historical aura that pierced through the screen drilled into the audience’s hearts.
[ Why do I suddenly believe Xia Wanyuan’s thesis? If these ancient tombs and cultural relics can be faked, then Xia Wanyuan is too amazing… Anyway, I can’t tell the difference. ]
[ This archeology student worships Xia Wanyuan. Anyway, I believe her. As for those who don’t believe her, they’re probably stubborn because of interests. How can such an ancient tomb be fake? ]
[So many jewelry… If I can secretly bring one back, will I be rich? Forget it, I’m already preparing to buy a plane ticket to Linxi. Everyone, wait for me to become rich!]
In Nancheng University, everyone was holding an emergency meeting. “Didn’t they say that Xia Wanyuan’s matter has been resolved?? Why did Xia Wanyuan jump out again?? And there’s an ancient tomb. Nancheng University is so close. Why didn’t you discover anything?!”
Looking at everyone’s dejected expressions, the leader of Nancheng University was furious. “What’s the use of raising you?! You can’t help at all at the critical moment.”
“Leader, now is not the time to quarrel. Let’s think about what to do first. Back then, our Nancheng University collectively issued a statement denying the authenticity of those cultural relics. If Xia Wanyuan’s thesis is proven to be true, our Nancheng University’s History department will be embarrassed in the future.”
Thinking of this, not only were the school leaders annoyed, but the teachers also looked unhappy.
Everyone regretted it now. They should not have listened to that person’s nonsense and stood up to deny and boycott Xia Wanyuan.
Now, Xia Wanyuan was fine. Their Nancheng University might really lose face.
In Beijing, Xia Wanyuan was discussing with Jun Shiling about going to Linxi.
“I’m almost healed.” Xia Wanyuan pulled Jun Shiling’s hand and placed it on her stomach. “Look, I don’t even feel the pain when the two little fellows jump around so happily.”
Jun Shiling gently touched Xia Wanyuan’s stomach, his eyes slightly warm. However, he was unwilling to relent to Xia Wanyuan’s request.
“In the past, I didn’t say anything when you were tired. Now, look at yourself. You’re already seven months pregnant, yet you still want to go over there and torture yourself. What if…”
At this point, Jun Shiling did not dare to continue. Thinking of how Xia Wanyuan had been covered in blood back then, Jun Shiling felt a lingering fear.
“But I want to see the excavation work at the scene.” In the manor, she could only see those artifacts on the television screen. They were cold.
Xia Wanyuan wanted to go to the venue, and there was one more thing. The opening ceremony of the Moon Bay project had not been held yet, and it could not be delayed anymore.
It was originally scheduled to open two months ago, but because Xia Wanyuan was injured, the opening ceremony of the Moon Bay project had been delayed.
Every day that was delayed was a huge cost that was consumed. It had already been two months. If this continued, the capital chain of the Xiafeng Group would not be able to hold on.
“But.” Jun Shiling was worried about Xia Wanyuan, but now that the global situation had changed, Jun Shiling could not accompany her immediately. He still had many things to deal with.
“No buts. I’ll take good care of myself.” Xia Wanyuan smiled at Jun Shiling.
Jun Shiling considered three. “You can go, but in a week, when I arrange the company’s matters, I’ll accompany you.”
Xia Wanyuan was a little helpless. “Do you want to go with me?”
Jun Shiling nodded.
“Okay.” Anyway, it was already two months late. It didn’t matter if it was another week. Xia Wanyuan agreed.
Over the past few months, Xia Wanyuan had been lying on the bed until she was about to grow mushrooms. Now that her health was better, she began to resume some of her previous work and interactions.
In the afternoon, Xia Wanyuan went to school to apply for leave.
It was only at this moment that the colleagues realized Xia Wanyuan’s bulging stomach.
“Wanyuan, you’re pregnant?!” Principal Yang was shocked. “You taught lessons while pregnant previously?!”
“Yes, I know my body very well. I’ll be fine.”
=Principal Yang was quite tolerant of Xia Wanyuan. He was generous and gave her indefinite leave.
“Rest as long as you want. I’ll arrange the work at school.” Principal Yang was afraid that something would happen to Xia Wanyuan at school. “Rest well.”
“Okay, thank you, Principal.”
After leaving the principal’s office, Xia Wanyuan prepared to leave.
However, after taking two steps, a large number of cameras suddenly appeared beside Xia Wanyuan.
“Mrs. Jun, are you pregnant?”
“Miss Xia, your stomach is so obvious. How many months has it been?? Can you tell us?”
Hearing that Xia Wanyuan would come to school today, many media reporters waited in school for a long time. Finally, they saw Xia Wanyuan. Everyone squeezed in front of her with all their might.
There were too many people. Everyone pushed each other and almost pounced on Xia Wanyuan’s stomach.
Xia Wanyuan held her stomach and took a step back. Her eyes darkened. She reached into her pocket and pressed a button. A large number of secret guards appeared around her.
“Chase them away.” Xia Wanyuan was quite direct.
“Yes.”
With such popularity here, how could everyone be willing to leave? The secret guards moved out in large numbers and directly took away the people who insisted on disturbing Xia Wanyuan.
Half an hour later, a paparazzo posted on Weibo that was trending.
“Xia Wanyuan is pregnant. Ten teams of bodyguards escorted her and cleaned up the student passers-by.”
The accompanying photo was a photo secretly taken by a reporter.
In the photo, it could be seen that Xia Wanyuan was clearly pregnant. There were a large number of bodyguards around her, and a portion of them were carrying some thin people out.
From the angle of the photo, the bodyguards were quite fierce, while the person they were holding looked very pitiful.
This contrast made everyone unhappy.
[ Pregnancy is a good thing, but isn’t this arrangement too much? Qing University isn’t run by Xia Wanyuan’s family. Why can she leave, but not the others… To be honest, it’s a little too much. ]
[ Can you wait for the truth to come out before criticizing? Our Yuan Yuan is not the kind of person who talks about extravagance, okay? I think there must be something else going on. ]
[I agree with the higher-ups. I advise you marketing accounts to stop using netizens as tools. They only know how to please the public every day. I suspect that the bodyguards didn’t chase away students at all, but annoying paparazzi like you.]
After so many things and Xia Wanyuan’s accumulated prestige in the hearts of the netizens, now that the marketing accounts were mobilized collectively, it was difficult to make everyone believe the rumors as before.
Regarding the commotion on the Internet, Xia Wanyuan instructed Chen Yun to deal with it while she was busy reviewing the film.
The television drama scenes of “Under the Sky” were almost done filming.
The special effects studio belonged to the Xiafeng Group, so the production efficiency was quite high.
Now that the half-finished product was done, they were just waiting for Xia Wanyuan to comb through it and make new requests for everyone to continue changing.
Xia Wanyuan finished watching the sample seriously and nodded in satisfaction.
Although she had not cared much about the production team recently, the production team did not disappoint her. The things they made made made her very relieved.
“Just do it according to the current situation.” Xia Wanyuan instructed the special effects studio. “That’s fine. When we’re done, I’ll treat everyone to a meal.”
“Okay!” To the employees, Xia Wanyuan’s encouragement was far more important than a meal.
The matter of the television drama finally came to an end. Xia Wanyuan’s heart relaxed a little. Just as she was flipping through the sample again, her phone suddenly rang.
Xia Wanyuan took the phone and glanced at it. It was a phone number from America.
Xia Wanyuan picked up the phone. As expected, Ryan’s voice came from the other end. “Goddess, I have something to tell you. Is it convenient for you now?”
“Mm.”
“You know Li Na’s mother, Liu Man, right?? She’s simply crazy. She’s working with the Chu family to fight for the power of the Blue family. She’s simply inviting a wolf into the house!”
Even someone as crude as Ryan could tell that Chu Yi had ill intentions. However, at this moment, to Liu Man, she did not care what losses she would bring to the Blue family if she provoked Chu Yi. What she cared about was the power of the Blue family.
“Calm down first.” Xia Wanyuan thought for a moment and comforted Ryan. “Didn’t your family stop her?”
“How did we not stop her?? But Liu Man isn’t an easy person to deal with.” It was unknown how painful it was to shoot an arrow at her back when she looked secretly weak.
“Let her find them and control it.” Xia Wanyuan’s opinion was different from the others. She felt that since Liu Man wanted the power of the Blue family, she would give it to her.
When something that did not match her ability was in her hands, there was a high chance that she would suffer a backlash.
Ryan did not understand what Xia Wanyuan meant. “But what if she doesn’t let go after getting it?”
The corners of Xia Wanyuan’s lips curled up slightly. “If you have time, you can look at our China’s military tactics more. There’s a saying that the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.”
The Chinese illiterate, Ryan, was stunned. Forgive me for not being able to understand. That was the entire Blue family!! Why was it given away like a free cake in Xia Wanyuan’s mouth?
“Let her go first. We’ll follow behind.” Xia Wanyuan continued to flip through the sample in her hand. “If you believe me, do as I say.”
As Xia Wanyuan’s hardcore fan, Ryan naturally believed her. He nodded. “Okay, I’ll do as you say.”
Soon, everyone in Ryan’s line received orders and stopped fighting with Liu Man. Gradually, the power of the entire Blue family was handed to Liu Man.
In the Blue family’s main residence, Liu Man was checking the family’s accounts with the butler.
After looking at it for a while, Liu Man pushed the bill aside. “Get Nana to look for me.”
“Madam, Miss is still unwilling to eat. She definitely doesn’t want to come out and see people.” The butler looked troubled.
After Li Na was kidnapped at the exchange last time, Li Na received a blackmail message a day later. The other party asked for a billion yuan.
Liu Man only had one daughter. Not to mention a billion, she was even willing to spend ten billion yuan on Li Na.
However, although she had been saved, there was something wrong with Li Na’s mental state.
When she was saved, her clothes were tattered. Anyone could guess what had happened in the two to three days after she was kidnapped.
After returning to America, Li Na locked herself in her room and did not go out. It had been more than two months, but she still refused to see anyone.
Liu Man sighed. “Forget it. Butler, bring the food. Let’s go up and see her together.”
“Yes.”
Liu Man brought her people upstairs and knocked on the door. “Nana, it’s me. Open the door and let Mommy talk to you, okay?”
“I don’t want to talk.” Li Na’s voice was very low.
“Mommy has good news for you.” Liu Man knocked on the door again. “Open the door and tell Mommy, do you hate Xia Wanyuan? Now that Mommy is already the person in charge of the Blue family, Mommy will help you take revenge, okay?”
After a while, the door finally opened and the bare-faced Li Na appeared in front of Liu Man.
Seeing that Li Na was finally willing to show her face, Liu Man was extremely emotional. She walked forward and hugged Li Na. “My child, you’ve suffered.”
“Mom, you just said the person in charge of the Blue family? What does that mean?”
