Chapter 342: Chapter 342: Recognizing Each Other, Mutual Confession

Before Yan Qi could gather his wits, his phone’s ringtone rang out again.

This time, it was his agent calling.

Yan Qi swallowed hard and hastily answered the call, "Hello, Zhao Ge, I..."

Before he could finish, his agent rudely interrupted, "Brother? I’m not your brother! Do you have any idea how much impact your incident today has caused? The internet is about to curse you to death! You’re losing all your live fans! Now the company is getting dragged into this mess too!"

"Did you think that thing on your neck is for increasing your height? You just walked away without a single word of defense! Isn’t this just handing a hammer to the netizens? Are you brainless?"

"Yan Qi, do you have any idea how much you’ve screwed me over this time?"

This was the first time since Yan Qi had found a sponsor that his agent had spoken to him so harshly. His body trembled, and with quivering lips, he said, "Zhao Ge, I didn’t know Shen Yanhe was Lone Boat, I..."

"Even if you knew, you didn’t make an effort to suck up to him, and you just left without defending yourself! You really are brainless!" The agent was nearly driven mad by fury, and roared, "Because of you, several brand collaborations the company had are now ruined! Let me tell you! You’re done this time!"

"The company will terminate your contract! Just wait for the hefty compensation you’ll owe!"

After yelling, the agent hung up.

Yan Qi’s face drained of all color, his body shook uncontrollably, cloaked in utter despair.

He knew that this time, he was truly finished.

-

The internet was in an uproar, Su Qi’s fans were triumphant, not only swarming Yan Qi’s Weibo but also flooding the official Weibo of the company Su Qi was currently signed with.

The official Weibo of "Heavenly Dao" was even more crowded with fans of Su Qi and onlookers, uniformly calling for a boycott of Yan Qi, urging the officials not to invite Yan Qi to sing the ten-year anniversary theme song.

The official account of "Heavenly Dao" responded quickly, posting a new statement within five minutes.

[@Heavenly Dao: Effective immediately, Heavenly Dao Games terminates all cooperation with Mr. Yan Qi and will never work with artists with bad records. PS: We are still looking for singers for the Heavenly Dao theme song and anniversary song, fans with recommendations please mention them in the comments.]

Meanwhile, Yan Qi’s company, Hua Le Media, also issued a statement.

[@Hua Le Media: Hua Le Media officially terminates its contract with Mr. Yan Qi today. We are grateful for Mr. Yan Qi’s years of shared honor and disgrace, thank you very much, and we wish him a smooth future.]

At the same time, on the deserted island.

Because of Yan Qi’s incident, there was no filming for the day, and even the mobile phones were returned to all the guests.

The guests were sitting together having a barbecue, and aside from Su Qi and Yu Jiao, all the guests were gathered around Shen Yanhe.

Luo Yao looked at her with sparkling eyes, hardly believing what she heard as she asked again, "Yanhe Sister, are you really the gaming deity Lone Boat?"

Shen Yanhe, holding a grilled chicken wing in her hand, took a bite, her eyes and brows exuding a lazy air, and nodded slightly, "Mhm, but I don’t deserve the deity title."

"Why wouldn’t you deserve it?" Song Shiwei, browsing Weibo on her phone, passed her phone towards her, pointing to the screen, "Look at the number of people in your super-topic."

Shen Yanhe glanced down.

A super-topic on Weibo had been created for her at some point, and now her super-topic fans were nearing one hundred million, with no less than half a million people commenting and posting.

This level of following could instill fear in any celebrity.

After all, top-line female stars in our country have only about 100 to 200 million fans on Weibo.

It had been less than two hours since Shen Yanhe’s identity was revealed, and her super-topic fans had already reached nearly a hundred million.

If it weren’t for the fact that she didn’t have a Weibo account, fans would have already flooded her page by now.

Qi Zeyi rarely smiled, looking at Shen Yanhe with admiration, "That’s Lone Boat."

A few years ago, a genius composer had suddenly appeared and just as suddenly disappeared.

When he found out, he was very surprised, but upon reflection, he realized that his nephew was now the director of the FY Corporation in Daxia, and his nephew’s wife wouldn’t be any less competent.

Luo Tian also looked at Shen Yanhe nervously and, a bit embarrassed, asked, "I’m also a fan of ’Solitary Boat’. Big shot, after the recording of the show, could you give me an autograph?"

Shen Yanhe smiled and agreed, "Sure."

Yu Jiao observed the guests getting along harmoniously and, thinking back to her confrontation with Shen Yanhe alongside Yan Qi just moments before, wished she could shrink her own presence even further to avoid Shen Yanhe’s notice.

She couldn’t help but blame Shen Yanhe for not revealing she was ’Solitary Boat’ earlier.

If she had known Shen Yanhe was ’Solitary Boat,’ she would have...

Just then, Yu Jiao’s phone rang.

She quickly grasped her phone and ran to a corner to answer, "Sister Sun..."

"Yu Jiao! Didn’t I tell you to build a good relationship with Shen Yanhe this episode? Have you lost your mind? Why did you target her!" Yu Jiao’s agent couldn’t help but yell at her.

Last episode, Yu Jiao got along well with Shen Yanhe, and she even gained a small boost in followers because of it.

But this episode, she went after Shen Yanhe like she’d lost her senses.

After Shen Yanhe’s identity as ’Solitary Boat’ was revealed, Yu Jiao also lost a lot of followers, and her image took a hit.

Recalling the sight of Shen Yanhe being embraced by that tall and noble man boarding the private plane made Yu Jiao press her lips tightly together, a hint of jealousy flashing in her eyes, but her voice was full of grievance as she explained, "I didn’t target her; it’s because she didn’t reveal her identity earlier that I..."

"What ’because she didn’t’? I think you just don’t have a brain!" The agent angrily interrupted her, "Do you know what they’re saying about you online? They’re calling you a ’green tea b*tch,’ a ’white-eyed wolf’! Last episode, Shen Yanhe was so considerate of you, and this episode, you and Yan Qi are stomping all over her!"

"The deal we barely managed to secure the other day is now gone too! Yu Jiao! Go apologize to Shen Yanhe immediately, ask for her forgiveness! Try to make Shen Yanhe feel favorably towards you!"

That’s ’Solitary Boat’ after all!

If she could gain the favor of ’Solitary Boat,’ Yu Jiao would become an object of flattery in the industry!

Yu Jiao had also thought of this, but considering the way she had made things difficult for Shen Yanhe at the restaurant earlier and what had just happened...

She pursed her lips and said, "I’ll do my best."

While Yu Jiao was on the phone, Qi Zeyi pulled Shen Yanhe aside.

Shen Yanhe stretched languidly, "Movie star Qi, what is it that you need from me?"

Qi Zeyi looked deeply at Shen Yanhe, a resigned smile on his face, "Miss Shen, you’ve known about my identity for some time now, haven’t you?"

Shen Yanhe’s eyebrows twitched slightly, and she nodded frankly, "Yes, I know you’re Yanhe’s second uncle."

"I won’t bother you youngsters with the messy affairs of the Fu Family." Qi Zeyi fumbled in his pocket, took out an exquisite little box, and handed it to her, his stern face showing a rare hint of embarrassment, "This is also the first time I am meeting a younger member of the family, and this is a little gift I picked out for you."

"It’s not very expensive; I hope you won’t find it lacking."

Shen Yanhe’s eyes narrowed slightly as she looked at the small box handed over by Qi Zeyi.

The box was from a luxury brand under the FY Corporation, one that Fu Yanhe had bought for her before.

The starting price is also in the hundreds of thousands.

In a third or fourth-tier city, it could buy a house.

She paused, then took the box, "Thank you, second uncle."
