Que You noticed her movement and was about to ask "What's wrong?"
A glance caught a pair of long legs approaching, and he instinctively looked over, then froze in place.
He immediately flipped through the names on the资料.
Seeing their reactions, the interviewee smiled and introduced herself,
"Good evening to you both, I am Yu Yahe from Chengxin Public Relations."
"..."
Wen Tingxue and Que You exchanged a look, both somewhat stunned.
They had never imagined that years later, their reunion would be in such a setting.
The vice president's face darkened for a moment, but he finally nodded.
"Fine."
He hesitated before walking out.
Yu Yahe caught his hint and smiled knowingly.
The vice president then left briskly.
Wen Tingxue took in their every move and asked, "You came here on your own initiative, didn't you?"
Her tone carried a seventy percent certainty.
Yu Yahe smiled faintly and nodded, "Yes, the company originally assigned an intern."
"Because of Fu Yuchuan?"
"Yes."
She asked directly, and she answered concisely.
For some reason, the two of them smiled at each other.
"Since you know Fu Yuchuan's intentions, why did you get involved in this mess?"
Wen Tingxue looked at her curiously, genuinely unable to comprehend.
Judging by the vice president's attitude, she must be a star figure in their company.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have instinctively defended her.
But due to Fu Yuchuan's order, he didn't dare to say directly how capable she was.
Fearing they would cooperate with the company, he could only utter some inconsequential remarks to muddle through.
Yu Yahe smiled and said, "Because I think you need me."
Que You was slightly taken aback, "Aren't you afraid of offending the Fu family?"
"It doesn't matter," she shrugged, "At worst, I'll go abroad again."
Regardless, she was determined to help Yu Wenli and Wen Tingxue with their matters.
The former was the "white moonlight" in her heart, and the latter was a debt she had always felt.
Wen Tingxue was silent for half a moment and asked her, "Do you already have a solution?"
"Yes."
Yu Yahe took out the three plans she had drafted from her bag.
As she explained, she said, "In the current situation, no matter what you say, netizens won't buy it, so my suggestion is to play the emotional card."
"Emotional card?" Que You asked, "How do you plan to play it?"
Yu Yahe looked at him, "That's what I need to ask you, why did Yu Wenli suddenly vote for Mo Zha?"
Que You choked, "...I can't say."
"What's there to not say?" Wen Tingxue also looked at him, her expression confused.
Que You scratched his head with difficulty, "I just can't say. I promised Brother Yu that I would take it to my grave."
"Are you going to watch Yu Wenli be cursed by everyone?" Yu Yahe reminded him, "The golden time for crisis public relations has passed. If you don't speak now, Yu Wenli's reputation might be ruined."
Two days had passed since the incident.
And the best window for crisis public relations was within the first four hours of the event.
Que You turned his face away with a conflicted expression.
Wen Tingxue suddenly asked, "Is it related to me?"
Yu Yahe's eyes lit up, "If that's the case, netizens' acceptance will definitely be higher."
This was thanks to the photos posted by Qiao Xixi, and Yu Wenli's own protection of her.
And the marketing accounts, in order to ride the wave of popularity, had repeatedly published articles about the couple's 'fairy tale romance.'
Now, almost everyone believed that Yu Wenli loved Wen Tingxue to the core.
On this basis, if Yu Wenli compromised because of Wen Tingxue, netizens would not only accept it but also feel that the couple had endured hardship.
The reversal of reputation was absolute.
They might even gain a wave of new fans.
Que You's heart stirred, then he covered his head and exclaimed, "No, no, I really can't say."
Wen Tingxue's expression darkened completely, "Are you forcing me to investigate? I can, although it will take some time, but I believe that with Han Xianyun's influence, we can surely find clues."
Saying so, she was about to make a call.
Que You reflexively stopped her, but gritted his teeth and remained silent.
Wen Tingxue lowered her eyes and looked at him, speaking neither fast nor slow, "If you keep delaying like this, Yu Wenli's future will be..."
"I'll tell you!"
Que You surrendered, and in a rapid stream of words, explained the reason.
"That's all I know. He didn't tell me the specific details, but I think it must be quite complicated."
Wen Tingxue trembled with anger after listening.
She never expected that they would target her.
They even went to such lengths to set up such a grand scheme!
No, their ultimate goal couldn't have been Mo Zha.
Then what was it?
Yu Wenli?
What about him was worth Fu Yuchuan's attention?
Wen Tingxue couldn't figure it out.
-
After Yu Yahe had arranged everything, she noticed Wen Tingxue standing by the window, lost in thought, her expression serene, like a statue.
"Are you worried about Yu Wenli?"
Yu Yahe walked to her side, standing with her.
The moonlight was beautiful tonight, but neither of them had any inclination to appreciate it.
"Yes."
Wen Tingxue's eyes flickered as she returned to her senses, and she responded faintly.
Although he seemed alright when they were chatting, she could tell he was just putting on a brave face.
After speaking, she noticed someone was missing from the room and casually asked, "Where's Que You?"
Yu Yahe made a gesture of making a phone call, "He went out to make arrangements."
Wen Tingxue looked at her for a few seconds, but didn't ask further.
Trust those you employ, and employ those you trust.
Whether they succeed or not would be evident in the outcome.
Wen Tingxue continued to gaze out the window, falling silent again.
Yu Yahe hesitated for a moment and then said, "Before I left Jiangcheng, the person I wanted to target wasn't you, it was Xie Jinni."
Caught off guard by her explanation, Wen Tingxue was slightly startled and nodded, "I know."
Ever since Shang Ziqian had exposed everything, she had understood.
Yu Yahe's hurried visit to the milk tea shop that day was not directed at her at all.
But who could blame Xie Jinni for her excellent acting skills?
With a few words and actions, she made everyone believe that she had taken the hit for her.
"You..." surprise flashed in Yu Yahe's eyes.
She then recalled Shang Ziqian causing a scene at Xie Jinni's birthday banquet.
With a sudden realization, she smiled and said, "You should have guessed."
Wen Tingxue didn't know what to say and forced a smile.
Yu Yahe, however, opened up, resting her hands on the windowsill and gazing at the starry sky. "I know you hate me. If it were me, I'd hate myself too.
"But honestly, if Xie Jinni hadn't threatened me back then, I wouldn't have done those things to you. Even if I was jealous and hated you, I would have only made a few sarcastic remarks."
Wen Tingxue looked at her.
She turned back and smiled, "I'm not trying to defend myself, I'm telling the truth. Yes, I really liked Yu Wenli, but that doesn't mean I hated you. At most, I was just..."
She looked back at the bright moon and blinked, smiling, "Envious of you. Do you know? I was truly, truly envious of you."
Who wouldn't envy someone who could possess the moon?
"But," she changed the subject, her smile now tinged with sincerity, "I'm more grateful to you. Thank you for appearing and making me deeply understand one thing."
Wen Tingxue's gaze sharpened.
Yu Yahe said, "That is, before loving others, one must know how to love oneself. If a person doesn't love herself, she is very unlikely to receive love."
Just like her in the past.
Wen Tingxue was silent for a moment, and finally, not knowing what else to say, she stiffly changed the topic, "Are you sure you can turn the public opinion around?"
Yu Yahe smiled, "We'll know tomorrow."
The next morning.
The trending search list indeed saw a shift in sentiment.
From outright condemnation, it turned to sympathy and indignation.
The top few trending topics were shocking: #Yu Wenli_Banned#, #Yu Wenli_Wen Tingxue's_Boyfriend#, #Yu Wenli_Frozen#.
Netizen 1: [It's true! The year Wen Tingxue won the award, there was so much debate online, and so many people were speculated about, but Yu Wenli, her actual boyfriend, was never even mentioned by name!]
Netizen 2: [Yu Wenli was banned back then; no one would accept the songs he wrote.]
Netizen 3: [I heard the ban order came from Mo Yichen.]
Fan A: [There's a rumor that Yu Wenli voting for Mo Zha this time was also under threat from Mo Yichen.]
Fan B: [It's Mo Yichen's doing! He threatened Yu Wenli's future; how could Teacher Yu refuse!]
Fan C: [No wonder Yu Wenli was so cold to Mo Yichen on the live broadcast that day. After it ended, he didn't even bother to pretend! He just left.]
Netizen: [If this is true, then I can understand Yu Wenli's choice.]
Netizen: [Agreed.]
Netizen: [I heard Yu Wenli didn't issue a statement this time because his grandfather was critically ill, and he rushed back to Jiangcheng overnight to take care of him.]
Banned, threatened, and his grandfather falling ill.
These three emotional appeals had won over the hearts of most netizens.
Fans were even more heartbroken.
Combined with the arrangements made by Que You and Yu Yahe, and various irrefutable evidence,
Even if Mo Yichen wanted to refute, his arguments lacked sufficient force.
A few days later, the matter was officially put to rest.
Wen Tingxue's work handover was also completed.
A second before boarding the plane, she sent a text message to Yu Yahe: [You will meet your own moon.]
