Chapter 657 Thoroughly Fired Up (2)
Suddenly, a pleasant ringtone sounded, and An Yiqing paused her pen, picking up the mobile phone from the coffee table.
"Hello? Ah Lin?" she said with a gentle smile, her tone betraying none of the anxiety or unease that might have been expected due to the Xuanjin Yu Jade scandal.
"Tutu, I know about the situation. I’ve already arranged for someone who specializes in investigations to head to Xuanjin Yu Jade, they should arrive soon," Gu Yelin got straight to the point, "Don’t worry, I’ve got this."
An Yiqing felt a deep warmth flood her heart, her eyebrows and eyes curving, and laughter twinkling in her clear, watery eyes.
"Hmm, this little setback is nothing. I’m fine, don’t worry about me, Ah Lin."
Her soft and glutinous voice transmitted through the handset, easing the underlying apprehension and heartache that Gu Yelin had been harboring.
After they finished the call, An Yiqing received calls from An Zisheng and An Zhihang as well. The fake jade selling scandal had already started to cause a stir in Xuandu City and even among the Xuanjin community. As people in the know, the An Family naturally could not help but worry.
The news spread even faster than expected, An Yiqing’s clear, watery eyes narrowing slightly, with turbulent waves churning in their depths.
Originally, she thought it was just a minor frame-up, but to her surprise, the news had spread throughout Xuanjin in just a morning.
Actually, the Xuanjin Yu Jade company was not some big conglomerate, and most ordinary folks didn’t harbor strong resentments against such an obscure, large company, so there was no need to harp on it. But someone behind the scenes deliberately arranged for an internet army to stir things up online non-stop, promoting the incident everywhere and even exaggerating the accusations with fabrications that were particularly offensive to the public.
