Ruining her hard earned Reputation
Ruining her hard earned Reputation
This was the case in every other household where one persons achievement or failure was shared by every other member of the family.
The news revolving around Mrs. Mu and Yi Mingchen might just be a source of entertainment for the commoners but to the wealthy circle, it was not a news that they could ignore. In the upper circle, families were interlinked in one or the other way. Sometimes a failure in one family might even affect the other families linked to them.
Yi Mingchen's scandal not only had an impact on the Mu family but it also had an impact on the Yi family which was her maiden family.
When Mrs. Mu was alive, it was a known fact that as the only son of the direct branch, Mu Jun was set to be the heir of the huge Mu family wealth. But with the arrival of Yi Mingchen followed by Mrs. Mu's death, people were no longer confident about Mu Jun. Later on with news being spread about Mu Jun having bad relationship with Mr. Mu, they belived that the son of the new mistress might be the next heir. But now after a series of incident, people were no longer sure about who would be the next heir.
Everyone wanted to know who was the heir so that they could build up a connection with them to benefit themself. Infact most of them wanted to marry off their daughter to the heir so that they could have long term benefit.
Many hoped that Mu Jun would be the heir seeing that he was a decent man with a good upbringing and was also the only person capable enough to take over the Mu corporation, unlike the step son who only knew to drink and mess around. With this thought many had trained their daughter in all possible aspect, hoping that they would stand a chance to be liked by Mu Jun and might probably marry him. But with the arrival of Sia who became his girlfriend and now with the news spreading about Mu Jun being engaged with Ms. Rao, people had to give up this idea.
Feeling more and more people looking at him, Mu Jun suddenly paused and stretched out his hand. Grabbing a fair and soft hand from behind, he pulled the person forward. Looking at Sia with a faint smile, he turned his head and continued to walk forward while holding Sia's hand.
Following behind, the few animals could not help but smile looking at the the two of them.
While Mu Jun was being worshipped in the school, Ms. Yi who had just returned home walking all the way from that damn place was furious. The moment she stepped into her room, she thrashed all the things furiously. She could not believe that she had lost everything in one day. Her hard earned money and reputation, she could not belive she lost them just like that.
The other night after she was thrown away by those two bastards, she fell unconscious. It was only after a long time did she finally regain her sense. When she woke up the sun had yet to rise. She felt tired and wanted to ask someone to pick her up only to find that she had no cell phone. Frustrated she could only walk to the city, hoping to borrow a cell phone to make a call. But the moment she stepped into the busy street, she saw herself appearing on the news. Looking at the intimate photos of her with another man being showed on the huge screen, Yi Mingchen was furious.
Hurriedly walking to a near by stranger, she borrowed his phone and made a call asking someone to pick her up.
Not long after a car arrived to pick her up. Thankfully because she was covered in dirt and her hair was messy, no one recognized her or else she would surely be surrounded by people on the road.
As Yi Mingchen cleaned her face, she glanced at the driver and asked coldly "What the hell is happening here?"
"We are not sure madam! Someone seems to want to ruin your reputation"
"Hmph! Ruin my reputation? Do they think its so easy to ruin my reputation? Huh, they are looking down on me then. Deal with the news"
"Yes maam"
Before the driver could make a call, he saw another breaking news while passing. Suddenly stoping the car, he looked at the huge led screen and said "Maam, look at the news"
Furrowing her brows, Yi Mingchen turned her head to look outside the window at the screen that was reporting another piece of news.
The moment Yi Mingchen saw the news, her face darkened and she cracked her fist in anger. She was not dump, looking at the news she knew that someone was trying to mess with her.
Looking at the news praising Mrs. Mu for contributing ten billion for the poor and needy, Yi Mingchen instantly spit blood.
'Damn that guy, not only did he take the money from her but he even donated it under that woman's name, f*ck him!'
Realising that she was actually played by some fucking man, Yi Mingchen felt furious.
The moment she returned home, Yi Mingchen could no longer control her temper and she started to throw the things around. It was the first time the servants saw Yi Mingchen loosing her tempers and no one dared to offend her at this time.
As Yi Mingchen was breathing furiously, she received a call from a familiar number. Picking the call, Yi Mingchen said furiously "Investigate who is behind this. If you cant push the blamed on that woman's son. Aren't they praising that woman for being generous and her son for beeing a good person? Then great, let the media spread the news about how this 'Good Young master' watched his mother's children die without sparing any effort even though he was rich"
"I got it"
"Anyone who dares to mess with me, I'll never let them off, Never!!"
Yi Mingchen's plan was good as she wanted to portray Mu Jun as a son who watched his mother's good deed go to waste even though he was rick enough to spare a few cents.
People never cared whether a person could afford money or not. All they cared about is since he has money then he should do that. They never bothered to investigate whether this person actually had money to spare to others.
Though the plan was good, it did not pose any threat to Mu Jun. The moment the news appeared, Mu Jun's assisstant specially revealed how young master Mu donated all the money he had been earning in stock market. The account book showed how he has been investing in stock market ever since his mother passed away and how much he had donated to the charity until now. Though the money he had earned was not that comparable to ten billion that a stranger had donated under Mrs. Mu's name, it was considered a huge amount for a little guy to earn using his pocket money.
The amount Mu Jun had donated was not one could neglect. The money he had earned was able to satisfy the basic needs of the children from more than hundred orphanage.
It might not be a big deal if Mu Jun had used his families money but since the money he had donated was earned by him by using little capital, it showed his ability and sincerity.
Yi Mingchens plan not only did not work but it even backfired her. Now more and more people praised Mu Jun for being a kindhearted human just like his mother and were amazed by his money earning ability.
Inside the Mu corporation, at the CEO office, Mr. Mu listened to his assistants report quitely. Looking outside the window, he smiled and said proudly "Afterall he is her son, he will always be the best"
