For the first time on the stage, Lu Weixi felt that, although these people are usually a bit nosy, they proved useful at critical times.

The bystanders exited, and the foundation-laying ceremony continued. The host hastily concluded the ceremony, and after the ribbon-cutting, there was shoveling under the memorial stone. Lu Weixi’s gaze remained steady, her expression at ease, and she did not utter another word.

On the way back, she walked with Lulu, while Qin Zhigu walked with his studio staff. Qin Zhiyou returned to Secretary Wang’s car, watching her converse confidently among Lulu’s group, seemingly unaffected. He was happy for her, yet incredibly angry.

He got into the car, greeting Secretary Wang, “Remember, call those reporters later and tell them to say this…”

Today’s reporters may only have planned to write casually, but with him, Hanhai, and the love triangle, it is hard to say whether the reporters would embellish the story. Plus, with Qin Zhimei present, who knows what she might do if upset. He didn’t care, but it wouldn’t be good if Lu Weixi was hurt.

Sure enough, before reaching home, a news report started circulating online about Siyi Company’s indoor design project’s opaque operations. While outsiders may not understand, almost everyone in the industry has a whiff of it. Now, with an alleged conspiracy to win the project underhand, public outrage was instantly triggered.

The bidding process in the construction industry is murky. If it’s kept under wraps, there’s a disguise. But under public scrutiny, it’s bound to incite resentment.

Many people even began preparing to expose Lu Weixi, trying to discover who this chosen lucky one really was.

Luckily, Qin Zhiyou was prepared. He steadied the reporters, urging them to withhold ceremony incidents. He then promptly contacted Boss Liao, who in turn, contacted Qin Zhigu.

Siyi Company and Simon White’s studio simultaneously issued statements, asserting there was absolutely no abuse of power or falsification.

Then they publicized the design drafts of Qin Zhigu and Lu Weixi.

Since the design drafts had been previously recorded and were legally protected against plagiarism, their publication effectively silenced everyone.

Industry insiders naturally understood; while Lu Weixi’s design might not be the most solid, it indeed harbored a spiritual energy. The most remarkable aspect was its seamless integration with Qin Zhigu’s design. Upon the design’s release, the matter was settled. Even though some continued to resist, they were outnumbered.

In the end, Boss Liao sent a direct legal notice; any further rumor-mongering would invite legal consequences!

By the evening, the situation had turned again. At that moment, Qin Zhiyou was holding Lu Weixi; they both lay on the bed scrolling through their phones. The headline had become “The Siyi Design Dispute: Hanhai Group Crumbling, Qin Family Power Struggle Exposure.”

Qin Zhiyou directed the reporters to upload the photos, ambiguously turning a jealous love triangle dispute into a high-profile family inheritance war.

During this time, Lu Weixi seemed to have gone invisible; she was barely dragged into the matter from beginning to end. At first, there were people trying to dig into her, but her name soon got lost in the whirlwind of distracting developments..
