My Lady, To Defeat Scumbags You Must Start Early

Chapter 451: A Beautiful Wedding for Xiaolang (Fifth Update)

Live broadcast studio.

The contestants hurried off the stage.

The live broadcast was suddenly switched to the backstage, where several contestants, caught off guard by the sudden darkness, ended up stepping on and bumping into each other. An argument escalated into a fight that was broadcast live to the audience.

The broadcast was urgently halted and switched back to the stage, where the host was trying to save the show.

At that moment, the camera was again switched randomly to the celebrity mentors arguing with the staff members. The whole scene was in complete chaos, making it impossible to continue recording.

The host could not go on anymore either.

What had started as an attempt by the host to salvage the situation quickly turned into outright criticism. “This is the worst production team I’ve ever seen. They knew this was a live broadcast but had no contingency plans. They had no problem-solving abilities. The front and back stages are all a mess. The sound engineer, the lighting engineer, the cameraman, none of the staff members on the scene are capable of handling changes on the spot. I can’t continue hosting a show like this. I announce my resignation.”

With that said.

He threw the microphone on the ground and left the stage.

The scene was chaotic.

Yin Qin was still sitting in the broadcast room, watching the mess unfold.

He had expected it.

Wei Cheng would rather harm the interests of the Yin He Corporation than let him off.

Wu Meili was frantic aside, she couldn’t help but say, “Chairman, are we just going to let things slide? This is a live broadcast. Don’t we need to take any remedial measures? The host has left. How can we continue the broadcast?”

Yin Qin didn’t answer, his expression indifferent.

Wu Meili was on the verge of a mental breakdown.

She plumped down next to Yin Qin. Her fear of status was turned into apathy. In any case, if she was going to die, then die she would.

The chairman of her family was least afraid of stirring up trouble!

At this moment, in Wei Cheng’s office.

Seeing the video before him, Wei Cheng burst out laughing uncontrollably.

“What a joke. This is probably the most ridiculous show in the history of Yanshang Country. The situation on site is so chaotic. Are they still broadcasting live? Don’t they know when to call it off? Yin Qin must be frightened out of his wits!”

A follower said respectfully, “Indeed, it is a very humiliating incident. People online have started criticizing, saying that this is all Yin Qin’s ability amounts to? That he gets serious for a while on a whim and then just reverts back to being the profligate he was? Some are saying Yin Qin, for a woman, for that woman Ji Baixin, completely disregarded the ‘Heaven’s Hall’ program, that he is not a competent leader, suggesting that the Yin He Corporation should change its leader…A lot of resentment, extreme resentment! I believe that for the next episode, no one would want to watch this program anymore.”

Wei Cheng can’t control his laughter once again.

He picks up the phone and dials his mom, “Mom, did you see it? This wretched boy Yin Qin, this time he is completely done.”

“Finally, you achieved something worthwhile.”

“Tomorrow, wait for Yin Qin to be swept out by all the directors.”

“Just control the pace. I am busy, I can’t talk anymore.”

“Have you found another handsome young man again?” Wei Cheng asked.

“None of your business, just mind your own.” Yin Ying’s voice sounded serious.

Wei Cheng hung up the phone.

Knowing his mother’s restlessness, he wasn’t surprised.

He stretched lazily and said to his follower, “Leave early tonight and get ready to watch a good show tomorrow.”

“Yes.” His follower was extremely respectful.

Both of them, with sinister smiles on their faces, left the Yin He Corporation.

Yin Qin finally called off the live broadcast for the night.

The live broadcast suddenly cut off.

Obviously, there would be no more broadcasts of the program today.

A tidal wave of comments flooded under the cut-off program.

Yin Qin read some of them.

Even someone as strong-willed as him couldn’t bear it anymore!

He turned off his phone and said to Wu Meili, “Let’s go.”

“Chairman, you are not going to explain to the audience? You’re just leaving? You are too weak!”

“Don’t you see I have some pride?” Yin Qin even managed a smile.

“When it came to Ji Baixing, you were ready to ignore everything, but when it’s time to face your own problems, you choose to run away, is that how you are supposed to behave?”

“Secretary Wu, careful, I might fire you!”

“You might as well, staying in Yin He Corporation will make me go bankrupt sooner or later.”

“You little…!” Yin Qin was angry.

Wu Meili said, “I’m leaving first, you can go back by yourself. I’m not leaving with someone who doesn’t take responsibility.”

With that said, she left quite haughtily.

This woman, she really had guts!

Speechless, he got up and left the VIP room behind the broadcast studio. As soon as he walked out, he saw Ji Baixin running towards him in a hurry. She grabbed Yin Qin’s hand, “Yin Qin, how could this happen today?!”

She was initially very confident, thinking that the viewership of today’s program would definitely be higher, and the clothing and stage effects she designed were really good. She believed she could add more glory to Yin Qin. But now, with things turning out the way they did, she found it hard to accept, let alone Yin Qin.

Yin Qin pushed Ji Baixin’s hand away.

Ji Baixin was taken aback.

Yin Qin and Ji Baixin maintained a little distance, and he said, “It’s not a big deal, I will handle it.”

“Yin Qin…”

“Don’t worry.” Yin Qin said. “It’s getting late, you should go back and have a good rest. Tomorrow, there will be a good play.”

Ji Baixin frowned.

She always felt that Yin Qin seemed to be…scheming something.

Yin Qin smiled, “I’m leaving first.”

And he left her behind.

In the past, Yin Qin would have asked, “Shall I take you home?”

Now.

He wouldn’t anymore.

From the moment Yin Qin announced the date of his wedding, there seemed to be a change in him.

And she, suddenly couldn’t adapt to this big change in him!

Yin Qin drove back home.

He came back early today for a change.

Because things had messed up, hence he returned.

When he got back, he saw his dad waiting for him in the hall with a shiny kitchen knife.

Yin Qin was almost scared to pee himself.

He backed away hurriedly, “Dad, calm down. Don’t hurt yourself.”

“No need for your concern, I can’t harm myself!” Yin Bin advanced step by step.

Yin Qin was so scared that he backed up against the wall, looking terrified.

“I heard pork prices have gone up recently.” Yin Bin said icily.

“So?” Yin Qin’s gaze was fixed on the gleaming knife, his voice trembling as he asked.

“Might as well make use of the price hike. Slaughter and sell you off. You’re not much use alive anyway.”

“Dad, dad, I’m not a pig, I’m a living, breathing human…ah!” Yin Qin screamed.

At that moment, he watched his father swing the knife towards him, the blade embedding itself in the wall next to him.

Yin Qin’s legs turned to jelly.

The next second, he took off from the living room and hightailed it upstairs.

Damn it.

He was scared stiff!

Qin Keqin, on the other hand, remained unfazed. “I did say the ratings from the last episode were a fluke. Miracles don’t happen every day.”

Yin Bin stayed silent, seemingly shell-shocked.

He continued to strike the wall with the knife, creating multiple dents in the wall.

Qin Keqin walked over and examined Yin Bin’s state.

“You possessed or something?”

Yin Bin remained silent, continuing to strike the wall.

His mind was filled with one thought: He must have lost his mind! He must have lost his mind! Giving the family stocks to that wastrel, Yin Qin, was definitely a decision made by a brain gone soft!

After returning to his room, Yin Qin locked the door and took a deep breath.

At that moment, Luo Xiaolang had just walked out from the bathroom.

Her face was flushed from the shower, clad in a cotton nightgown while drying her hair in a haphazard manner.

Yin Qin fixed his gaze on Luo Xiaolang.

Feeling Yin Qin’s stare, Luo Xiaolang was somewhat puzzled, “Is there something on my face?”

Yin Qin spun around abruptly.

“How long ago did you have your C-section?” he suddenly asked Luo Xiaolang.

She thought for a moment, “About four months ago. The baby is also four months old.”

Four months had passed in the blink of an eye.

He smiled faintly.

He began to feel a strange anticipation.

The next day.

Perfectly on time for work, Yin Qin arrived at his office.

However, just as he reached the doorway, Wu MeiLi, his secretary, came rushing over, “Mr. Chairman, you’ve finally arrived. Director Wei has gathered the board members in the meeting room, they’ve been waiting for you. They’ve sent someone to check on your arrival several times already. You’re usually here early, aren’t you? What’s happened today? Director Wei has got hold of this incident!”

Yin Qin seemed unconcerned.

He sauntered into his office, plonked himself down on his chair and started to swivel around, “Aren’t I just in time for work? Make me a cup of coffee.”

“Mr. Chairman…” Wu Meili was almost in tears.

If only her chairman would show some reaction.

She was afraid that her chairman would just be shown the door. If that happened, as the person closest to the chairman, she’d definitely be let go. She had worked so hard to get into the Yin He Group, finally becoming the chairman’s secretary after much effort. She didn’t want to lose her job!

“Let me having a cup of coffee to stay sharp. I might not even get a drink of water when being lambasted by those old fogeys later.” Yin Qin said nonchalantly.

Such a lack of concern in the face of impending doom, she had no idea whether to admire him or not.

Wu MeiLi resignedly prepared a cup of coffee for Yin Qin.

As soon as she returned to the office, she saw a messenger from Director Wei arrive to summon Yin Qin again.

Yin Qin responded with a few words.

The messenger hurriedly left.

Wu Meili didn’t bother persuading him any further. Worst case scenario… she’d have to find a new job!

She’s always accepted that following this chairman meant being prepared for any consequences.

After Yin Qin finished his coffee with a leisurely stretch, he then deliberately took Wu MeiLi and walked into the board meeting room.

No sooner than he had walked in and taken a seat, the barrage from the shareholders began.

“Yin Qin, do you even have a sense of responsibility?! How can you, in times like these, have such an indifferent attitude?! Are you aware of the humiliation Yin He Group is undergoing right now? Are you aware of the extent of loss you’ve caused to Yin He Group?!”

“Do you want to see Yin He go bankrupt?! I’m demanding your resignation from the board!”

“Yin Qin, aren’t you ashamed at all? A perfectly good show ruined because of you! Aren’t you ashamed to show up here?!”

“If it were me, I’d have resigned out of shame by now. Some people’s skin is even thicker than walls!”

Yin Qin just sat in the middle, legs crossed, listening to their insults with an unbothered expression, taking it all in stride.

“Yin Qin!” Zhang Qiang couldn’t hold himself back any longer. He slammed his hand down on the table and stood up, “Give us an explanation! We’ve waited an entire morning, and this is your attitude?!”

Yin Qin rubbed his ears, uncrossed his legs, resting his elbows on the table, “Uncle Zhang, careful of your blood pressure.”

“Give us an explanation! How are you planning to compensate us for screwing up Yin He Group this way?!” Zhang Qiang was seething with rage.

“The person who should be accountable might not be me!”

“If it’s not you, then would it be me? We entrusted you with ‘Hall of Heaven’, not for you to play around with it! How could a sightless like you have the audacity to occupy the chairman’s seat and fight with Director Wei for operational rights?! Aren’t you ashamed?!”

“No, I’m not ashamed.” Yin Qin answered. He stood up, positioning himself at the center, “Because… the one who should be feeling ashamed isn’t me!”

Just then.

The door of the boardroom suddenly swung open.

A group of officers from the disciplinary committee in uniform walked directly towards Weng Cheng and announced, “Weng Cheng, you’ve been reported for economic crimes causing serious financial losses. Please come with us for an investigation.”
