Chapter 644: Chapter 644: Has Shang Shaojing Actually Gone Bankrupt?!

Su Yinwan was already on her way home when she saw the trending search.

She had left the island a bit earlier than Shaojing, flying for several hours, followed by a few more hours in a private car, during which she spent almost all her time catching up on sleep and taking nutritional supplements.

By the time she safely reached her indoor apartment, she was completely exhausted.

Her assistant had prepared a bath for her early on, and after soaking for half an hour, Su Yinwan felt completely rejuvenated.

Looking at the bustling view of Imperial City through the floor-to-ceiling windows, she felt the whole world had become surreal.

Still, the city was better. The last few days on the island had been absolute hell!

After pacing for a while, she began to enjoy the nutritional meal specially prepared by her aunt, and casually pulled out her phone to browse.

During the month she had been away, her phone was filled with various messages people had sent, and her Weibo backstage had accumulated a few hundred more messages.

Su Yinwan was initially happy to see messages from her fans expressing concern, but her expression darkened suddenly when her eyes landed on the trending search list.

Jiang Li, Jiang Li, Jiang Li — it was all about Jiang Li!

She was just a misbehaving young lady, yet her Weibo followers had almost caught up with her own, reaching over eight million.

Seeing this, Su Yinwan’s eyes turned completely cold.

If it hadn’t been for Jiang Li, she wouldn’t have suffered so much on that island.

Once she recovered, she would definitely take back everything that was owed to her!

Thinking this, the apartment’s doorbell suddenly rang.

Su Yinwan irritably put down her phone and walked to the living room to check the display screen inside the door.

—It was her manager, Xiao Xueyi.

Su Yinwan opened the door and then slumped carelessly onto the sofa.

She had thought Xiao Xueyi had come to check on her, but as soon as she entered, she started scolding her.

"Yinwan, what happened to you? Didn’t you say you could handle yourself well on that variety show? Why didn’t you win, and instead got eliminated early?"

"Do you know how many video edits are circulating online, ruining your public image? The company has already spent millions trying to clean up these press releases."

"Several brands also want to terminate their contracts with you. We hardly have any partnerships left. If this continues, you’ll be demoted to the second tier. You just secured your position as top celebrity, are you really okay with losing that?"

Su Yinwan frowned unhappily, "Do you not know how I was eliminated? With the Crown Prince of the Gu Family there, how could anyone else have won? And those malicious edits, that’s all the work of haters, what does that have to do with me?"

"As for the brands wanting to terminate their contracts, let them if they want to. What does it have to do with me? Can’t we just sign some other contracts afterward?"

There were plenty of brands clamoring to have her as their spokesperson anyway!

Xiao Xueyi’s eyes widened with frustration, "Do you really think you are still the Su Yinwan everyone desperately wants? Let me be blunt, half of these people came to you because they wanted to curry favor with Shang Shaojing. Now, with the Shang family gone, you’ve lost your backing as well. If you don’t start pulling yourself together, you’ll be eaten up by others soon!"

Su Yinwan simply sat up straight from the couch, incredulously staring at Xiao Xueyi, "What did you just say? The Shang family is gone?"

"Don’t you know?" Xiao Xueyi retorted, "You’re not aware that the Shang family has gone bankrupt?"

"What?!" Su Yinwan suddenly stood up, her voice sharp by several octaves, "The Shang family is bankrupt? How is that possible?"

He was supposed to be the leading male of this world, Shang Shaojing!

How could he possibly go bankrupt?!

Seeing her disbelief, Xiao Xueyi had no choice but to pull out her phone and show the official announcement.

"See for yourself."

Su Yinwan grabbed her phone, and as she saw the last message, her hands trembled, and her body turned ice cold.

"How, how is it possible...."

The merchant family had actually gone bankrupt....

Her head spun, and she nearly passed out, but fortunately, Xiao Xueyi was quick to support her.

Watching Su Yinwan’s pale face, Xiao Xueyi sighed and handed her a cup of warm water.

"Yinwan, I know it’s hard for you to accept all at once, given that you genuinely cared for Shaojing. He’s truly encountered a huge problem now. We could help, but you must also take care of yourself." freeωebnovēl.c૦m

Su Yinwan slumped on the sofa, gasping heavily, her face filled with disbelief.

In just over a month, all her beliefs had crumbled.

Being a time-space traveler, she was well aware of the destiny of each world, and as a Child of Destiny, Shaojing should never have faced bankruptcy.

Could it be... because of the plot collapse?!

Thinking of this, she quickly checked the world’s plot harmony using Divine Sense—only less than thirty percent remained!

The system had warned her that once the plot harmony dropped to zero, her mission would be a complete failure!

How could this be....

If Shaojing was affected by the plot collapse, would she be next?

The more Su Yinwan thought, the more frightened she became, but soon, the violently vibrating phone on the table pulled her back to reality.

Xiao Xueyi took away the phone and handed it to her, "It’s Shaojing calling. He still thinks of you at this time; it shows you’re on his mind. Go on, comfort him."

However, to her surprise, Su Yinwan snatched the phone and threw it into the trash bin, then buried her head in her hands on the sofa.

"No.... I don’t want...."

"Yinwan, what’s wrong? That was Shaojing’s call."

"No, no, I don’t want to answer... Please, let me calm down for a moment, just a moment..."

She needed to think, to think hard about how to turn around this disastrously unfolding plot.

...

Shaojing had aged overnight.

His usually meticulous hairstyle now clung messily to his head, and instead of his custom cashmere suits, he wore a casual outfit bought hurriedly at the airport.

His driver, assistant, and executives were all unreachable; now he could only sit in a dilapidated taxi heading towards downtown.

Holding onto his last shred of hope, he had called Su Yinwan, but after ten minutes, the call was still not answered.

Shaojing sneered coldly and turned off his phone completely.

A chilling sadness seeped into his heart from the cold wind outside.

Was she also abandoning him now?

Were all those past promises fake?

"Hey, we’re approaching the police station now, get off here."

The driver’s words pulled him back from the brink of confusion.

Shaojing numbly opened the taxi door and stepped out, only to be called back.

"Hey, you aren’t planning on not paying, are you? That’s $156, and we’re near the police station—I’ll call the cops immediately if you try to ditch the fare!"
