Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

What should she do?

Just as Yan Ruo felt disheartened, Jin Yuhua walked to her side and patted her shoulder. She said, “Don’t worry. I’ve arranged everything.”

“Okay.”

Yan Ruo nodded and forcefully held back the tears that welled up in her eyes.

Xiao Yeyu squeezed in with displease and pushed Jin Yuhua to the side.

She lowered her voice and threatened Yan Ruo, “What are you whispering to Jin Yuhua about? Let me tell you, don’t play any tricks. Otherwise, Mr. Yuan will have plenty of ways to teach you a lesson.”

Yan Ruo turned her face to the side and said, “Assistant Jin is my father’s good friend. You have no right to care about her.”

“As long as you still have a contract with Longmen Film and Television Company, then I can interfere.” Xiao Yeyu turned around and looked at Jin Yuhua. She disdainfully added, “This has nothing to do with you. Stay away from Yan Ruo.”

To prevent the two of them from conspiring against Yuan Luochen.

Xiao Yeyu had Yan Ruo under tight surveillance.

She didn’t give her a chance to breathe at all.

Jin Yuhua remained silent and retreated quietly.

They arrived at the lobby of Cool Comics.

The staff arranged for them to enter the conference room.

After that, they arranged for the media reporters to enter the venue.

Before the official start, Jiang Yining happened to sit beside Yan Han and Yuan Luochen.

Yuan Luochen said meaningfully, “Mr. Yan, renowned for a long time, it’s truly troublesome for you to come for such a small matter today.”

Yan Han said indifferently, “It’s only right. After all, it involves my master.”

Jiang Yining mocked, “It’s rare that you still remember Elder Qi. He must be very happy in the afterlife.”

When Yan Han heard what she said, he frowned and pursed his lips into a straight line.

But he didn’t respond.

Jiang Yining paused for two seconds and continued, “The last time 1 went to pay my respects to Elder Qi, the grass around his tomb had been left untouched for a long time. Yan Han, Elder Qi raised you and taught you painting for many years. Now that he’s gone, you’re not even willing to go to his grave to pay your respects. How can you shamelessly use his name to swindle people everywhere?”

Each word in her statement carried a sting.

Yan Han’s expression instantly turned unpleasant.

However, before he could speak, Yuan Luochen spoke first, “What does it have to do with you? You’re not even close to Elder Qi, so don’t pretend to be close to Mr. Yan.”

“Yan Han, how well do 1 know you?” Jiang Yining held the microphone and stared at Yan Han as she asked word by word.

Her voice echoed in every corner of the conference room.

The previously bustling reporters instantly quieted down.

Wasn’t it not officially starting yet?

Why did she suddenly ask?

Some of the reporters who hadn’t entered the venue heard Jiang Yining’s voice and squeezed in anxiously.

The commotion outside had nothing to do with Jiang Yining.

She kept her gaze steady and waited for Yan Han’s answer.

Yan Han met her gaze. His expression was as calm as water. Memories from a few years ago flashed through his mind, and thousands of emotions flashed through his heart.

There was a long silence.

He opened his lips, about to reply.

At this moment, Xiao Yeyu ruthlessly pinched Yan Ruo.

Yan Ruo winced and exclaimed, “Daddy!”

Yan Han swallowed the words on the tip of his tongue and turned to look at Yan Ruo.

With teary eyes, Yan Ruo said, “Daddy, 1 have a few words to tell you.”

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Yan Han couldn’t reject his daughter.

He stood up and walked up to her.

Jiang Yining retracted her gaze and a cold smile hung on her lips.

Under Yuan Luochen and Xiao Yeyu’s oppressive gazes, Yan Ruo pleaded with her father in a low voice, “Dad, I know I’ve done a lot of wrong. You’re not willing to forgive me. But this time, if you don’t help me, I’m really finished. 12 billion… We can’t afford so much compensation. Do you really want me to sell my body? I’m your only daughter. You can’t just abandon me.”

Yan Ruo’s voice trembled at the end.

Her eyes were filled with grief.

Yan Han was finally moved but still reluctant to deceive.

He looked at Yuan Luochen and said, “Mr. Yuan, I’m willing to give you 30 pieces of my personal works. It’s far more than 12 billion yuan in compensation. Please spare my daughter.”

“This isn’t about 12 billion dollars, it’s about my dignity. Mr. Yan, I know you’re an upright person, but you have to consider your daughter, don’t you think so?”

Yuan Luochen spoke politely, but there was a hidden threat.

Anger flashed in Yan Han’s eyes.

However, his weakness was being controlled by someone else, he had no choice.

In the end, he fell silent.

Half an hour later.

The meeting was arranged properly, and the reporters began to ask questions.

“Mr. Yan, may 1 ask why you’ve been living abroad and are unwilling to return?”

“Mr. Yan, you’re Elder Qi’s only disciple. Why haven’t you publicly displayed a painting for so long?”

“Mr. Yan, according to the comic artist, Ningxin, who is also Miss Jiang, she claims to have known your master Elder Qi, and received his guidance for two years. Is this true?”

“Does Ningxin’s style truly inherit Elder Qi’s teaching in your opinion?”

The reporters asked one question after another. There was no time to answer.

The host asked them to calm down.

Then, he signaled Yan Han to answer one by one.

Yan Han held the microphone and remained silent for a long time.

The atmosphere that was initially filled with anticipation and fervor turned into an awkward silence.

“Mr. Yan?”

The host called out softly to remind Yan Han to speak.

Yan Han looked at Jiang Yining on his left, then at Yan Ruo beside him, and finally said, “I do know Jiang Yining, and we were quite close. However, we lost contact after I moved to the United States.”

As soon as he said this, the entire place was in an uproar.

The cameras kept flashing.

They aimed at Jiang Yining and Yan Han!

Yan Ruo’s small face was deathly pale, devoid of any color.

Yuan Luochen’s expression was extremely ugly.

Xiao Yeyu secretly pinched Yan Ruo again, urging her to quickly remind Yan Han to shut up.

Yan Ruo was in so much pain that her tears fell.

A reporter noticed this scene and loudly reminded, “Miss Yan, why are you crying? Aren’t you happy to know that your father knows Miss Jiang?”

When Yan Han heard this, he looked at Yan Ruo again.

In a place where the reporters couldn’t see, Xiao Yeyu had already pinched Yan Ruo’s fair arm until it was bruised.

Yan Ruo felt her father’s gaze. She endured the pain and said to everyone, “I’m happy for my father. It’s rare for him to be able to reunite with an old friend. After all, my father never liked socializing with others. Now that he has another friend and is in the same industry as me, I’m very happy.”

Yan Ruo raised her hand and wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes.

Yan Han retracted his gaze.

The reporters took the opportunity to display Jiang Yining’s work and asked, “Mr. Yan Han, do you think Miss Jiang’s work has Elder Qi’s legacy? Recently, Miss Jiang had been caught up in plagiarism. Ms. Yang had accused her of plagiarizing her work. The two of them have very similar styles. Miss Jiang insists that she is original and has Elder Qi’s style.. From your professional perspective, which of the two works is the original?”
