Chapter 90: Chapter 90 This is Actually an Opportunity (Request for Monthly Votes!)

Looking at Yu Qiao Qiao with a pitiful expression, Chen Yan felt a sudden "thud" in his heart.

He keenly sensed that this matter might be a bit tricky.

After all... Boss Qiao Qiao was usually carefree, so for something to cause her such stress, it was clearly not a trivial matter.

He hesitated for a moment and said, "You start by telling me everything that happened, let’s see what’s going on."

Yu Qiao Qiao cautiously glanced at Chen Yan, then lowered her head, and quietly recounted the situation.

She started from when she heard in a meeting that the company needed publicity, to finding Lu Man and asking her for help with the promotion.

Then she got to how Lu Man, in a moment of impulse, took over Director Zhang’s new movie’s publicity at the opening ceremony, which ultimately led to the current situation of being banned and shelved...

Listening to the unbelievable actions these two girls had taken, Chen Yan’s mouth widened in surprise.

After a while, he asked in astonishment, "You mean, Lu Man promoted our game by hijacking the publicity resources of Director Zhang’s new movie?"

Yu Qiao Qiao weakly nodded.

Chen Yan slapped his forehead with a "snap."

This silly girl, she really went all out.

How could she do such a thing?

Didn’t she consider the consequences?

As a person who is meticulous and always makes detailed plans before doing anything, Chen Yan truly couldn’t comprehend this sort of foolish thought process.

He had previously received a "surprise" text from Lu Man and saw how openly she promoted the game on television. He thought she had discussed it with the company and the crew and had received permission.

After all, a rising young actress has strong bargaining power.

But... it was all arbitrary actions by her!

You want to give a "surprise," but you need to think it through first!

Otherwise, it’s not a "surprise," it’s a "shock," right?

Chen Yan felt that if people could be assigned to factions and labeled, Lu Man would definitely be on the chaotic side.

This woman really lives up to her reputation for being capricious.

Seeing Chen Yan’s helpless expression, Yu Qiao Qiao shrank like a little quail and cautiously said, "Chen Yan, you can’t blame Sister Man Man for this. If I hadn’t approached her for help, she wouldn’t have done it."

"So, I am also responsible for this."

Chen Yan: ...

What am I supposed to say...

Perhaps sensing Chen Yan’s speechlessness, Yu Qiao Qiao said a bit aggrievedly, "I saw you worrying about publicity during that time, so I wanted to help you out."

"I didn’t expect it to turn out like this."

Chen Yan looked at Yu Qiao Qiao’s aggrieved face, rubbed his temples, and felt a headache coming on.

Although this matter was indeed a mess, both Yu Qiao Qiao and Lu Man had good intentions, wanting to help him and the game.

He should appreciate this sentiment and try his best to help them handle the aftermath.

Especially seeing Boss Qiao Qiao’s guilty look, if this issue was not resolved, it would probably haunt her for many years.

This would also greatly impact his own "cloud fostering" enterprise.

Not to mention anything else, just the car she didn’t want; he would be earning ten million less.

But...

How to solve this!

She’s a popular actress, after all!

Not just any actor.

Banned by the industry! No movies to shoot!

Being a game developer, what could he do to help?

Thinking of this, Chen Yan’s headache worsened.

Seeing Chen Yan’s painful expression, Yu Qiao Qiao said worriedly, "Chen, Chen Yan, are you alright?"

She carefully continued, "If you think it’s too much of a hassle, just forget it."

"I, I’ll go and try to figure something out with Sister Man Man myself."

"Don’t be mad..."

Listening to Yu Qiao Qiao’s cautious voice, Chen Yan felt he might have put too much pressure on her.

What had Boss Qiao Qiao done wrong, after all? She was just a sweet young girl...

With this thought, he took a deep breath and forced a smile, "I’m fine, just thinking of a solution."

After saying this, his mind started working and gradually became clearer.

"Here’s what we’ll do. Keep the car. This issue is one thing, and the lottery is another. The two shouldn’t be confused."

Seeing Yu Qiao Qiao about to argue, Chen Yan interrupted her directly, "I’ll meet with Lu Man tonight, have a detailed chat with her, and see what her real thoughts are."

"But no matter what, she caused this problem for our company, and I won’t just ignore it."

"As for you..." reaching this point, Chen Yan reached out and gently touched Yu Qiao Qiao’s head, "You meant well. You’re not to blame for how things turned out."

"So, stop worrying."

"Just focus on your studies and don’t worry about these things."

"Everything."

"I’ve got it."

Feeling the warmth of Chen Yan’s palm, hearing his deep and magnetic voice, Yu Qiao Qiao looked at the side of Chen Yan’s face, filled with a sense of security.

Her heart, previously anxious and unsettled because of Lu Man being shelved, gradually stabilized.

She looked at Chen Yan and softly said with a hint of apology, "I’m sorry, Chen Yan. I’ve caused you trouble."

Chen Yan looked down at Yu Qiao Qiao’s cute face, and his mood inexplicably improved.

He smiled, "It’s okay. It’s all small stuff!"

...

After taking Yu Qiao Qiao out to test the car and handing over the vehicle and its documents to her, the two returned to the company.

Upon returning, Chen Yan locked himself in the General Manager’s office immediately.

The employees all knew that when Chen Yan needed to think about major issues, he would do this, so it wasn’t a surprise.

They gathered around Yu Qiao Qiao, congratulating her again and then asking her how it felt to own a luxury car...

It was almost like Quora had come to real life...

...

In the General Manager’s office.

Chen Yan sat in the executive chair, holding his game strategy notebook, beginning to ponder over Lu Man’s situation.

Because everything he knew so far was relayed by Yu Qiao Qiao, Chen Yan didn’t have a clear understanding of the "real" situation and Lu Man’s actual thoughts.

The specifics would only be clear after he met Lu Man tonight.

He chose to think in the office because he suddenly realized... this might not just be a crisis but also an opportunity.

Ever since Boss Qiao Qiao had money, it had increasingly become difficult for him to spend her money.

For example, at today’s lunch, Chen Yan wanted to secretly pay the bill to earn some "pocket money," but she caught on and paid herself.

Or like a couple of days ago when Chen Yan wanted Yu Qiao Qiao to buy some fruits for the company, she ended up bringing two bags of fruits to the office herself, treating everyone.

This made Chen Yan feel that his daily wool-gathering was becoming harder.

But...

With Lu Man around, it would be different.

Lu Man was a celebrity; her spending power was something Yu Qiao Qiao couldn’t match.

He could use this opportunity to give some money to Yu Qiao Qiao.

Saying that the company felt they owed Lu Man, he could let Yu Qiao get some money and accompany Lu Man for meals, drinks, and shopping to take good care of her.

Now with Boss Qiao Qiao feeling so guilty about Lu Man, she’d probably agree.

Then... with a celebrity’s spending power, who knows, it might make him millions, even tens of millions in a month.

If this isn’t an opportunity, what is?
