Chapter 99: He Can't Compare to Shen Yan?

“Young Master Shen, don’t worry. I know someone who can definitely solve this problem.”
In a moment of desperation, the hacker mastermind’s mind conjured up a name. “I can contact her. As long as she steps in, there’s nothing that can’t be resolved.”
It was as if he had grasped the last lifeline.
Right now, the only person who could save him was that one individual!
Shen Sheng leaned back lazily, gazing at the hacker with a mixture of skepticism and curiosity.
Under Shen Sheng’s scrutinizing stare, the hacker trembled and hastily assured, “I swear it’s true. Once she gets involved, this matter will be settled…”
Shen Sheng rubbed the corner of his mouth, considered for a moment, then nodded. “Alright. I’ll give you one more day. If it’s not resolved by then, prepare for your doom!”
With that, he stood up and left.
If it weren’t for his future ambitions within the Shen Corporation, Shen Sheng wouldn’t have bothered with these rumors at all.
The moment Shen Sheng walked away, the hacker completely collapsed.
What kind of misfortune had he brought upon himself to mess with such a demon!
Right now, survival was paramount.
With trembling hands, the hacker found her contact on his screen and sent a message.
…
Thanks to Ye Yao Yao’s intervention, the public attention surged higher and higher.
Passionate supporters multiplied, and many no longer confined themselves to online insults—they began pelting Shen Sheng with rotten eggs and spoiled cabbages.
Shen Sheng was baffled as he was hit on the streets; before he could even glare at the first assailant, a second and third came at him with flying objects.
One person he could handle, but a crowd—too many to count—was beyond his ability to manage.
Shen Sheng was utterly frustrated!
He slammed himself into the car, punching the door so hard it dented inward.
Ye Yao Yao!
He would remember that name.
Once this wave of public outrage passed, he vowed to make those insolent fools pay dearly.
A video capturing Shen Sheng’s humiliation circulated online, and Yu Wanqing watched it with glee.
When Ye Yao Yao went to visit Feng Yuqi, Yu Wanqing dragged her into the corridor.
“Yao Yao, I want to show you something.”
She handed the video over. “There are still more good people in this world.”
Seeing Yu Wanqing’s rare smile, Ye Yao Yao gently touched her cheek. “Yes, there are more good people. As long as you’re happy.”
At her words, Yu Wanqing’s face suddenly fell. “I’m not happy! I want to see Shen Sheng beaten so badly he’s seriously injured!”
Thinking of how Feng Yuqi had been tied up like a mummy that day, Yu Wanqing’s bitterness would not subside.
No one could truly empathize; only by letting Shen Sheng experience these hardships firsthand would justice be served.
“Really want to see that? Aren’t you afraid of the bloody scene?” Ye Yao Yao stared intently at Yu Wanqing.
“Of course I want to see it—I’m not scared,” Yu Wanqing lifted her chin defiantly.
Seeing this, Ye Yao Yao nodded. “Fine, I’ll fulfill your wish.”
Before Yu Wanqing could respond, Ye Yao Yao wrapped an arm around her shoulder. “Come on, let’s go see Feng Yuqi.”
A bone injury takes a hundred days to heal.
Feng Yuqi was seriously hurt and would have to lie in bed for a long time.
With his restless nature, this was a real test of patience.
Feng Yuqi looked up at Ye Yao Yao with a pitiful expression. “Boss…”
“What’s wrong?”
“I remember now.”
Before Ye Yao Yao could answer, Yu Wanqing launched into a scolding tirade. “You remember? Are you trying to die? In your condition, how do you expect to get up?”
Yu Wanqing shot him a glare. “You better lie still.”
“Alright,” Feng Yuqi reluctantly agreed.
Watching the two of them interact, Ye Yao Yao suddenly thought of a phrase: old married couple.
Though Feng Yuqi liked boxing and similar sports, his temperament was gentle; he needed Yu Wanqing to keep him in check.
“Don’t rush. When you get better, there’ll be plenty of chances to move around. Just hold on for now.”
Ye Yao Yao patted him gently and whispered, “I’ll take you to a boxing match someday.”
“Okay.” Feng Yuqi nodded, his eyes shining.
But Yu Wanqing sensed something off and gave Ye Yao Yao a deep, probing look, though she said nothing.
As for the public opinion scandal, Shen Sheng naturally could not resolve it.
For as long as Feng Yuqi lay in bed, Shen Sheng stayed at the center of a storm of criticism.
Shen Sheng had not yet fully withdrawn from the Shen Corporation, and his actions had caused irreversible damage.
The old guard at Shen Corporation wished they could also pelt him with rotten eggs and cabbages.
But they couldn’t.
It was right to be angry at Shen Sheng, but more importantly, Shen Yan had to return to take charge of Shen Corporation.
If not for the trending scandal, Shen Yan wouldn’t have planned to come back at all.
Yet Ye Yao Yao was increasingly involved in this affair, and if Shen Yan didn’t return soon, those old fools would likely try to smear her as well.
So, Shen Yan came back.
Shen Yan and Shen Sheng were like opposite examples.
When Shen Yan assumed leadership, everyone felt sorry for him and believed he had suffered enough.
As a result, Shen Corporation’s stock price soared rapidly—an indirect way for netizens to oppose Shen Sheng.
On Shen Yan’s first day back, the shareholders convened a meeting.
In the conference room, every shareholder’s face beamed with smiles.
“Ah Yan, it’s good to have you back. With you here, Shen Corporation is safe.”
“Exactly, Shen Corporation can only thrive under your leadership!”
“Not just anyone can sit in this position.”
…
In response to their flattery, Shen Yan merely glanced over and called the meeting adjourned.
Back in his office, Shen Yan felt the weight of responsibility and glanced toward Feng Yuqi’s usual spot.
He certainly wasn’t going to let this matter slide.
Peace returned to Shen Corporation.
Shen Sheng lived leisurely, wandering aimlessly every day.
The matriarch of the Shen family found him unbearable and finally lost patience after half a month of his idleness.
“If you’re useless here, then go back abroad and manage the business there.”
The old lady’s disdain was palpable.
Seeing this, Shen Sheng smiled. “Grandma, you’re burning the bridge behind you. You begged me to come back, saying that little Yan was uncontrollable.”
“What? Now that I find you useless, you want to kick me aside too?”
When Shen Sheng lost his temper, he showed no respect for family.
The old lady’s face darkened, but all she could do was glare and weakly retort, “Shen Sheng, this is called division of labor. You can’t just loaf around all day.”
“I don’t see anything wrong with loafing around every day.”
Shen Yan crossed his legs, spreading his hands as he reclined on the sofa. “I think being a carefree playboy is just fine.”
“You…”
The old lady’s face flushed red and blue with anger. “No wonder you can’t shoulder great responsibilities! You’re no match for Shen Yan.”
“No match for Shen Yan?”
Those words struck Shen Sheng’s nerve. He no match for Shen Yan?
